Stellar (XLM) Readies for Game-Changing Upgrade: Details. The Stellar network is on the verge of a game-changing upgrade that might redefine its ecosystem: the Protocol 21 upgrade. The upgrade comes after the successful mainnet launch of Soroban, Stellar's smart contract platform, following a successful validator vote on Feb. 20, 2024. Now, almost three months later, Stellar network readies for another protocol vote. On June 18, 2024, Stellar public network validators will vote on whether to upgrade the network to Protocol 21 which, if approved, will enable five new Core Advancement Proposals (CAPs) on Stellar's Mainnet. These five CAPs provide several exciting new features, including passkey signing support and an upgrade to state archives as well as cost savings for smart contract transactions. These include CAP-0051, smart contract host functionality or secp256r1 verification, which enables secp256r1 verification of Stellar's smart contracts via the exported host interface. The acceptance of this CAP will enable secp256r1 verification, allowing developers to create contracts that include passkeys to sign smart contract transactions instead of utilizing passphrases or signing keys. CAP-0053 allows for the extension of the time to live (TTL) for contract instances and contract code through independent Soroban smart contract host functions. The other three CAPs use different ways to keep Soroban transactions affordable. They include CAP-0054: The Soroban refined VM instantiation cost model refines the cost model for virtual machine (VM) instantiation. CAP-0055: Soroban streamlined linking reduces overall costs by linking to fewer host functions during virtual machine (VM) instantiation. CAP-0056: Soroban intra-transaction module caching reduces overall costs by caching parsed Wasm modules within Soroban transactions. The Testnet upgrade to Protocol 21 is scheduled for May 14, 2024, with the Mainnet vote taking place on June 18, 2024. As the countdown to the upgrade continues, anticipation continues to mount within the Stellar community and beyond.

Stellar (XLM) Readies for Game-Changing Upgrade: Details.

The Stellar network is on the verge of a game-changing upgrade that might redefine its ecosystem: the Protocol 21 upgrade.

The upgrade comes after the successful mainnet launch of Soroban, Stellar's smart contract platform, following a successful validator vote on Feb. 20, 2024.

Now, almost three months later, Stellar network readies for another protocol vote. On June 18, 2024, Stellar public network validators will vote on whether to upgrade the network to Protocol 21 which, if approved, will enable five new Core Advancement Proposals (CAPs) on Stellar's Mainnet.

These five CAPs provide several exciting new features, including passkey signing support and an upgrade to state archives as well as cost savings for smart contract transactions.

These include CAP-0051, smart contract host functionality or secp256r1 verification, which enables secp256r1 verification of Stellar's smart contracts via the exported host interface.

The acceptance of this CAP will enable secp256r1 verification, allowing developers to create contracts that include passkeys to sign smart contract transactions instead of utilizing passphrases or signing keys.

CAP-0053 allows for the extension of the time to live (TTL) for contract instances and contract code through independent Soroban smart contract host functions.

The other three CAPs use different ways to keep Soroban transactions affordable.

They include CAP-0054: The Soroban refined VM instantiation cost model refines the cost model for virtual machine (VM) instantiation.

CAP-0055: Soroban streamlined linking reduces overall costs by linking to fewer host functions during virtual machine (VM) instantiation.

CAP-0056: Soroban intra-transaction module caching reduces overall costs by caching parsed Wasm modules within Soroban transactions.

The Testnet upgrade to Protocol 21 is scheduled for May 14, 2024, with the Mainnet vote taking place on June 18, 2024.

As the countdown to the upgrade continues, anticipation continues to mount within the Stellar community and beyond.

DOGE Price Prediction for May 14. DOGE/USD. The rate of DOGE has declined by 1.12% over the past day. On the hourly chart, the rate of the meme coin is in the middle of the local channel, between the support of $0.1461 and the resistance of $0.1551. As most of the daily ATR has been passed, there are low chances of any sharp moves by the end of the day. A similar picture can be seen on the bigger time frame. The price of DOGE is far from its low and peak of the day, which means none of the sides has accumulated enough energy yet. In this case, ongoing sideways trading in the zone of $0.145-$0.1550 is the most likely scenario. From the midterm point of view, DOGE is in the middle of a wide channel. As the volume keeps falling, traders are unlikely to see any sharp ups or downs soon. DOGE is trading at $0.1464 at press time.

Ripple CLO Compares SEC to Kafka's 'The Trial' as XRP Case Saga Continues. In the ongoing legal saga between Ripple and the SEC, the crypto company's chief legal officer, Stuart Alderoty, drew a striking parallel between the regulator's handling of the case and Franz Kafka's renowned novel, "The Trial." Alderoty's comparison underscores. Ripple's contention that it has been unfairly treated by the regulatory body throughout the investigation and Wells Notice process. Some argue that this case is emblematic of a broader trend, with other cryptocurrency firms, such as Robinhood or Coinbase, experiencing similar challenges in navigating the SEC's inconsistent feedback. Ripple v. SEC v. XRP. As of now, the SEC continues to pursue remedies against the San Francisco-based blockchain company, amounting to nearly $2 billion for selling XRP to institutional investors. In response to the SEC's motion for judgment and remedies, Ripple has filed to seal certain documents, citing concerns that their disclosure could cause significant harm to its business interests. The requested redactions include highly confidential information regarding earnings, revenues, expenses and discounts at which XRP was sold to institutions. While Ripple acknowledges the relevance of its discounts to institutional buyers, it refuses to disclose specific financial and pricing terms. Moreover, Ripple seeks to protect the identities of nonparty financial institutions, customers and employees, arguing that disclosure could be detrimental to their legitimate privacy interests and potentially damage business partnerships. Despite the SEC's request for over $2 billion in fines and penalties, Ripple contends that any civil penalty should not exceed $10 million.

Charts Look 'Scary Bullish for Bitcoin': Dan Tapiero. Cofounder of Gold Bullion International and 10T Holdings Dan Tapiero has taken to his official account on the X platform to share a bullish Bitcoin price prediction. He tweeted that the setup on the charts is beginning to look "scary bullish for Bitcoin." "Scary bullish for Bitcoin". Sharing two Bitcoin charts in his tweet, Tapiero stated that these are "starting to look scary bullish for Bitcoin." In the near future, the investor expects the world's flagship cryptocurrency to break above the $65,000 level and then head on to $90,000, and then even higher. Tapiero tweeted that the current sideways consolidation is nearly done, adding that markets always have some surprises in stock for traders and investors. He has not been able to detect any specific catalyst that will lead the Bitcoin bull run, but he does not think it is important in this case "Specific catalyst unclear but it doesn't matter." Over the past 24 hours, the world's primary cryptocurrency has gone down by 3.18%. This plunge was followed by growth of 1.29%. Bitcoin is currently changing hands at $61,950. Overall, since BTC lost the $65,000 level on May 6, it has been striving to recover it and has twice already attempted to break through the $63,300 zone - but to no avail so far. Bitcoin is expected by many to skyrocket later this year or in 2025 after the fundamental event for BTC that happened in April - the halving. It reduced the block reward size to 3.125 BTC and, historically, Bitcoin has always skyrocketed after each of the three previous halvings. Another potential price catalyst is that spot ETFs continue to purchase Bitcoin en masse, having started their regular accumulation in January, when they were approved for trading by the SEC.

Michael Saylor Ejects 'Bitcoin Money' Message Amid Market Dip. Amid a drop in the cryptocurrency market, Michael Saylor, MicroStrategy's chairman, has issued a rallying call to crypto holders. "Teleport your money to safety," Saylor wrote in a tweet while tagging Bitcoin. This metaphorical advice comes at a critical time when the market is experiencing significant volatility, and investors are seeking a haven for their digital assets. Michael Saylor's statement might not be about literal teleportation but rather a strategic move to safeguard investments. By using the term "teleport," Saylor emphasizes the speed and decisiveness required in taking action. His message might reflect the swift action needed to prevent potential losses during market downturns. At the time of writing, BTC has fallen 1.34% in the previous 24 hours to $61,931, matching the decrease in the cryptocurrency market ahead of key data releases. The cryptocurrency market dipped on Tuesday as investors anticipated fresh inflation data and Federal Reserve policymakers' statements, hoping for signals about the future path of monetary policy. The April producer price index, which monitors wholesale inflation, is due out on Tuesday. Dow Jones surveyed economists, who estimate that the PPI would climb 0.3% from last month. MicroStrategy has been a staunch supporter of Bitcoin, with Saylor leading the charge in advocating for the cryptocurrency as a reliable store of value. The company's strategy to hold Bitcoin through volatile times has been a testament to its belief in the long-term potential of digital currencies. That said, Saylor's message might extend beyond mere preservation of capital. His statement might remind readers that taking prompt and well-informed action is crucial in the face of uncertainty.
