Kickstarter Decides Against Potential Blockchain Move Two Decembers ago, project funding platform Kickstarter announced it was considering a shift to blockchain, and that it was potentially looking into placing all its operations atop the same distributed ledger technology that has grown so close with digital assets. Kickstarter Says “No” to BlockchainNow, however, it appears this move is not going to happen. Kickstarter recently hired a new group of board members that have decided against the blockchain switch. They’re instead committed to the “core business and needs” of the creative community using and supporting Kickstarter. A spokesperson for the company said in a statement: As we’ve shared with our community in previous blog posts, we’re exploring the opportunities that are in blockchain to alleviate some of the challenges that we face as a centralized crowdfunding company. However, we’re not committed to moving Kickstarter to the blockchain or doing anything specific there. We are open to exploration and experimentation but want to do it in a way that feels tested, collaborative with our community, and considerate of the experience[s] they want from Kickstarter.

The government official told the daily Izvestia that authorities are going after the “illegal miners.” While crypto mining is yet to be regulated and such activities are not explicitly prohibited right now, utilities can prove in courts that these consumers are not using the electricity for domestic needs.

Crypto bear market – Disaster or Opportunity Mature and established investors know what defines a bull and a bear market. For those less experienced in the market terminology or jargon, it would be helpful to have a basic understanding of what bull and bear mean in trading terms. The financial market comprises stocks, bonds, and commodities influenced by consumer confidence. Essentially, a bull market occurs when securities are on the rise whilst a bear market occurs when securities fall for a sustained period. In a bull market, consumer confidence is very high and sustained through good economic growth and activity plus low or full employment. In such an economic environment, investors who hold the stock, bonds, and other financial utilities will be more prone to buy and invest more while keeping a firm grip on their current investments. There have been many instances in Europe, the United States, and other parts of the world that have experienced a bull market but nothing last forever, including the lucrative bull market. The bull market is a buyer’s market, a place that Bitcoin bookmakers somehow relish.

Economist David Dodge Says Gold Is an ‘Antique Instrument,’ Thinks Digitizing the Canadian Dollar Is Interesting The economist David Dodge, the former seventh governor of the Bank of Canada, says gold is an “antique instrument,” and he believes Canada’s central bank got rid of its gold reserves for this very reason. Despite saying gold is an outdated financial tool, Dodge said that the leading crypto asset bitcoin (BTC) has no place in the Bank of Canada’s reserves. David Dodge: The Bank of Canada ‘Holding This Antique Instrument of Stability Called Gold Really Didn’t Make Any Sense’David Dodge, the former seventh governor of the Bank of Canada (BofC), thinks gold is an antiquated payment tool and that it’s costly to store. Dodge spoke with Kitco News correspondent David Lin on Thursday and discussed the shiny yellow precious metal.According to Dodge, gold is an archaic instrument and Canada’s central bank was correct to get rid of it all. Canada is the only G7 nation that does not hold any gold reserves. The Canadian central bank’s gold-selling trend started in the early 2000s and by 2016, Ottawa had sold most of its gold reserves.“[The] issue is quite clear, that it costs to hold gold, whereas holding U.S. or Chinese or Euro bonds yields you a return,” Dodge told Lin on Thursday afternoon. “…That was a strong view. And a view that our international monetary system was in a place that was sufficiently robust, that holding this antique instrument of stability called ‘gold’ really didn’t make any sense.” Dodge Believes in Reducing Transaction Costs, Says the Issue of Digital Currencies ‘Is a Very Important Issue’

Weiss Ratings Report Claims Crypto-Backed Home Loans Spell Trouble A report published on May 2 by the rating agency Weiss Ratings warns that crypto-backed mortgages “spell risk.” Weiss editor Jon D. Markman said backing a mortgage with crypto is an “interesting strategy,” but stressed that during these market conditions “investors should be skeptical.” Weiss Ratings Editor Doesn’t Believe Crypto and Mortgages MixAccording to the editor at Weiss Ratings, Jon D. Markman, lenders who allow people to use crypto to back a mortgage might be adding more risk to current market conditions. Markman uses the firm Milo as an example, as the Florida-based digital bank is allowing mortgage investors to use digital currencies as collateral. In Markman’s opinion, the trend is similar to the risk-associated home loans that were sold in 2007-2008. ȁ

None have reached mainstream acceptance levels, and there are several people out there wondering what it’s going to take for these currencies to be given their due. Why Is Crypto Not Further Ahead?A recent panel of experts – including Chris Smith, founder of BIG Esports; Josh Marcus, COO at Rumble Gaming, and Evan Heby, senior marketing manager at Tipalti – sat down to discuss crypto, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and many other aspects of this growing industry.

​​A lot of good deals in September. Look at one more of them. As always, excellent performance from our TrendGuru AI. 💵💵💵 Closed deal FTM/USDT Open: $0.26867, 06.08.2021 Close: $1.3955, 08.09.2021 Profit: +419.41% Duration: 33 days 💵💵💵 What Is FTM? Fantom is a directed acyclic graph (DAG) smart contract platform providing decentralized finance (DeFi) services to developers using its own bespoke consensus algorithm.Together with its in-house token FTM, Fantom aims to solve problems associated with smart-contract platforms, specifically transaction speed, which developers say they have reduced to under two seconds.The Fantom Foundation, which oversees the Fantom product offering, was originally created in 2018, with the launch of OPERA, Fantom’s mainnet, coming in December 2019. The platform’s compatibility with Ethereum means that users can purchase an ERC-20 standard FTM, which is automatically converted to native FTM once received to their wallet. Another version of FTM is available on Binance Chain using its BEP2 standard. Only the native FTM can be used on the Fantom OPERA mainnet itself. Fantom attempts to use a new scratch-built consensus mechanism to facilitate DeFi and related services on the basis of smart contracts. The mechanism, Lachesis, promises much higher capacity and two-second transaction finalization, along with improvements to security over traditional PoS algorithm-based platforms. Matching Ethereum, the project appeals to developers looking to deploy decentralized solutions. According to its official literature, its mission is to “grant compatibility between all transaction bodies around the world.” Its in-house PoS token, FTM, forms the backbone of transactions, and allows fee collection and staking activities, along with the user rewards the latter represents.

Why I Became an NFT Landowner on Next Earth Owning land goes back as far as humans have had the concept of ownership. The idea that a piece of property can hold value — knowing there is a certain potential for capital appreciation — has existed since we figured out how to pin things down in space for, say, a campsite. NFTs are digital equivalents of these earlier forms of “real estate.” But it’s not just about owning an NFT equivalent of a plot of land; rather, you become a co-owner along with thousands of others in what could be called an “online commons.” Together, NFT landowners make up Next Earth, a next-generation metaverse that has created a virtual replica of Earth.

Dydx Trading Volumes Explode After Latest Chinese Crypto Ban Dydx, a decentralized exchange, has seen its trading volumes explode in the last few days, surpassing other recognized decentralized exchanges like Uniswap and Pancakeswap. Some analysts have suggested this might be the result of the latest Chinese cryptocurrency ban causing China-based users to move their trading activities to these platforms. Dydx Bursts With ActivityDydx, a decentralized exchange that, unlike other similar platforms, offers an order book, has been bustling with activity during the last few days. The activity in the decentralized exchange has grown enormously, with volumes surpassing those of its decentralized rivals such as Uniswap and Pancakeswap. In fact, On September 26, dydx trading volumes surpassed those of Coinbase, achieving a big milestone for the platform. According to Antonio Juliano, Dydx’s founder, the exchange managed to move $3.68 billion on September 26, while Coinbase moved $3.61 billion on the same day. Dydx was originally based on Ethereum, but it has since included an L2 layer called Starkware, which allows for much cheaper fees offering the same functionality to its users. This has also caused the exchange to become popular, now being more appealing to everyday traders. Chinese Exodus to Decentralized ExchangesDue to the incredible growth in Dydx’s trading volumes, some analysts have declared that this might be the result of Chinese traders moving to decentralized alternatives after being abandoned by their centralized counterparts. This abandonment was motivated by the recent cryptocurrency ban that forced Asian exchanges to stop offering services to mainland China-based users. Decentralized exchanges are the best option for Chinese traders right now because they don’t enforce KYC policies for their customers. This means that traders can continue to keep holding and exchanging their assets without the risk of government intervention, and now, this trait is key for Chinese users. The value of dydx, the governance token of the exchange, has also been on a constant rise since it was awarded to its traders earlier this month. The token has gained more than 100% in just a month, and its price now hovers around the $24 mark. This means that the airdrop offered to traders is now worth more than double when it was awarded, with some traders now having obtained $900K worth of dydx.

After Eating the Art World, NFTs Are Shaking Up Entertainment Industry If the first era of NFTs was largely centered on the art world, the next is certain to be more diverse, encompassing movies, albums, graphic novels, comic books, games, and sport.

Argo Blockchain Looks to Become More Energy Sustainable Crypto mining firm Argo Blockchain has become the first official company of its kind to release a climate plan to carry it through the future. Argo Blockchain Is Looking to Be More Environmentally FriendlyThe idea of crypto mining is necessary to ensure digital blockchains are consistently supplied with new tokens. However, the process has been quite controversial over the past few months given that it is allegedly causing irreversible damage to the planet according to many environmentalists. There are several people out there who would like to see the world of crypto come crashing down given that it allegedly hurts the planet. This attitude is backed by several leading members of the crypto space, Elon Musk being a big one. The CEO of both Tesla and SpaceX announced several months ago that he was willing to permit bitcoin and crypto payments for vehicles through his former company. However, this decision was later rescinded when Musk claimed that the mining process was harmful to Earth’s atmosphere. He said he wanted to see few emissions and less reckless strategies amongst mining companies before he could say “yes” to crypto payments for either of his companies.

Revolutionary Ecosystem Developed by Synapse Network Opens up Cross-Chain Investment Opportunities Synapse Network is developing the first cross-chain investment ecosystem based on blockchain technology. It will offer five cross-chain products for the cryptocurrency sector, including a DEX and DeFi marketplace, saving a lot of time and effort to everyone frustrated with the current fractured landscape. Trade ETH to MATIC or BNB in Just One SwapTechnology specialist Synapse Network will provide investors with a simple one-stop-shop solution to consolidate their transactions. Compared to a multichain solution, where you need to invest into one of multiple pools – a costly and time-consuming process – it allows investors to allocate their funds in different blockchains, including Ethereum, Binance SmartChain, Solana, Polygon and many other popular blockchains. So investors can trade ETH to MATIC or to BNB in just one swap. "The cross-chain revolution is the next big step of blockchain evolution, so we are thrilled to be the only player in the market to offer this technology. Cross-chain means you can choose any chain you want, or even several at a time, for any investment that you desire, – Synapse Network Co-Founder Paweł Łaskarzewski"

Beeple to Launch Anticipated WENEW NFT Platform on Polygon WENEW, a Beeple co-founded NFT Venture has announced in a recent press release the launch of its long-anticipated NFT platform on Polygon. Wenew’s co-founder Beeple is a blockchain and NFT advocate whose real name is Mike Winkelmann. He is highly recognized as the first artist to have a digital piece sold via Christie’s famous auction house. With his passion to build a connection between the traditional world and the digital world, he has founded WENEW to boost the relationship between NFTs and the traditional world. Polygon Considered as Best Fit For WENEWMoreso, the launch is set to happen on Polygon, a leading well-structured, easy-to-use platform for scaling and infrastructure development on the network. Deducing from the impacts of polygon on the digital world so far, it boosts environmental friendliness on NFTs minted on it while leaving a low carbon footprint. As such, the team behind WENEW considers Polygon as the best scaling solution for their anticipated NFT platform as it would aid WENEW’s goal of becoming the premier curator and provisioner of iconic moments. “WENEW will be launching their highly anticipated NFT platform on Polygon and the NFT offerings on the platform, including an iconic collection featuring Andy Murray’s Wimbledon 2013 victory, will be minted on Polygon,” the announcement reads. With the high-speed and low-cost infrastructure deployed on Polygon, the environmental impact on the NFT offerings will be reduced to minimal levels. This would cause the purchase of the offerings to become user-friendly and easily acquirable. The launch of WENEW on Polygon will mark a big record for the platform, causing significant growth in the NFT Ecosystem. The development is set to yield a comprehensive ecosystem of NFT tooling, marketplaces, big brands, artists, creators, and celebrities.

Bitcoin Left Out Of SEC’s 2021 Regulatory Agenda The US SEC has tabled a plan on how it will regulate the market this 2021, but the conspicuous exception of Bitcoin and other cryptos from the regulatory agenda is turning heads. Many hoped that the crypto industry would somehow feature in the regulatory agenda, especially now that cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin have gone fully global and achieved acceptance in numerous economic sectors. Interesting Shift Of FocusInstead, SEC plans to focus on regulating short-selling events, something that may be attributed to last year’s craze that affected GameStop and AMC Theatres. This apparent lack of focus on the crypto industry is interesting in that the SEC Chairman himself has been actively advocating for Bitcoin and crypto regulation. Gary Gensler, who is SEC’s new Chairman, was recently quoted as saying that cryptos are a volatile asset class and that the public needs protection in the way of regulation of exchanges. While Gensler agreed that some cryptos that are deemed securities fall under its umbrella, others like Bitcoin don’t. However, the fact that they’re trading on publicly accessible crypto exchanges means that the public needs protection. This protection is not currently in force. Little Action By CongressThe SEC chairman has been at the forefront in pushing Congress to adopt regulatory policies for the crypto industry, but it seems that these efforts haven’t borne fruit. Gensler has been on this offensive since May. Instead, the drastic type of attention coming from some members of Congress and Senate doesn’t seem to favor regulation. Just recently, Senator Elizabeth Warren expressed her concerns about the environmental impact of cryptocurrencies, calling for a limitation on bitcoin mining. This contravenes Gensler’s efforts to regulate the industry to protect investors rather than ban the cryptos entirely. The 2021 AgendaWhile the SEC’s 2021 focus doesn’t touch on cryptos, it will give some attention to climate risks related to various industries, the development of the global market, and closer monitoring of the stock market to prevent harmful short-selling acquisitions.
