The Bitcoin ETF issuer, VanEck, has recently submitted an application for the ETF Solana in the United States (USA). 

According to the head of digital asset research at VanEck, the company is the first in the United States to apply for a Solana ETF, marking an important step forward in the bull sector of bear investments in cryptocurrencies. 

Let’s see all the details below. 

VanEck: pioneers in ETF innovation, the demand for Solana in the USA 

As anticipated, VanEck, one of the pioneers in issuing spot Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETF) in the United States, recently submitted an application for a new ETF on Solana.

This move represents a further step forward for the company in expanding the offering of investment products in the cryptocurrency sector.

Matthew Sigel, head of digital asset research at VanEck, announced on June 27 on X (formerly known as Twitter) that the company has filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) the application for the Solana ETF. 

The new fund, named Vaneck Solana Trust, aims to capitalize on the high utility and economic feasibility of the blockchain Solana.

According to Sigel, this is the first filing for a Solana ETF in the country, highlighting VanEck’s commitment to innovation and the expansion of the ETF market linked to digital assets.

Solana as a commodity: VanEck’s vision

Sigel explained the reasons why VanEck considers SOL, the native token of Solana, a commodity:

“We believe that the native token, SOL, functions similarly to other digital commodities like Bitcoin and Ether. It is used to pay transaction fees and computational services on the blockchain. Like ether on the Ethereum network, SOL can be traded on digital asset platforms or used in peer-to-peer transactions.”

In any case, the demand for the Solana ETF by VanEck represents an important evolution in the landscape of cryptocurrency investments. 

With the Vaneck Solana Trust, investors will have the opportunity to access Solana through a regulated investment vehicle, paving the way for greater adoption and recognition of SOL as a valuable digital asset. 

This passage highlights VanEck’s confidence in Solana’s potential and its growing role in the world of criptovalute.

3iQ Corp. submits application for a Solana ETP in Canada

The digital asset manager 3iQ recently filed an application for a Solana (SOL) exchange-traded product (ETP). If approved, this ETP will be traded on the Toronto Stock Exchange (TSE) in Canada.

The official announcement was shared on X (Twitter): 

“3iQ Corp. is excited to announce that we have filed a preliminary prospectus for The Solana Fund (QSOL) in Canada for an initial public offering.” 

This move underscores the company’s ongoing commitment to innovation. If the application receives regulatory approval, the Fund will become the first Solana product listed in North America on a public market.

Furthermore, the approval will bring Solana to a wider audience, increasing the exposure to SOL in the long term.

This year, the ETF market has seen the approval of various Bitcoin Spot-based ETFs in the US market. Recently, the SEC has also given the green light to an Ethereum ETF. 

Both approvals have triggered significant price increases in Bitcoin and ETH, with a growing demand both nationally and globally.

The selling pressure has significantly decreased, while the large holdings of BTC have continued to increase. The outlook for Ethereum is equally rosy, with major players predicting a long-term recovery in price performance.

Important news from the wallet Tezos: ‘Tezos X’ has recently been presented, the new vision that offers diversified solutions for the blockchain. But what are the changes made? Let’s see all the details below. 

Wallet Tezos X: innovation, scalability, and news in the blockchain world

As anticipated, Tezos X was recently introduced, a project that represents a significant evolution compared to the original design of Tezos.

This new vision addresses some of the most fundamental issues of the blockchain world, proposing solutions that go beyond mere speed.

In particular, focusing on usability and utility, without sacrificing the fundamental properties of a noteworthy blockchain. 

Tezos X indeed combines the best of monolithic and modular blockchain projects, offering an integrated experience defined as “modu-litica”. 

This approach allows for massive scalability, preserves composability, and improves interoperability both within and outside the blockchain space. 

The final objective of Tezos X is to maintain level 1 as a strong, lightweight, and decentralized settlement level. 

On the other hand, an extremely powerful “canonical” L2 rollup provides significant vertical scaling, inheriting security and censorship resistance from the L1 level.

The canonical L2 rollup proposed by Tezos X serves as a one-stop shop for builders and users, becoming the main layer for application activities. 

This system supports multiple execution environments with atomic transactions between smart contracts written in different programming languages, including mainstream languages like JavaScript and Python. 

This means that a smart contract written in Solidity can call a smart contract written in Python and pass the result to a third contract written in JavaScript, all within the same transaction and the same rollup.

What do the recent price movements of Tezos (XTZ) mean?

Tezos (XTZ) is experiencing a difficult period, with a bear extension that has led the asset along the price curve while the bulls struggle to regain control. 

According to market data, XTZ has experienced a decline of 4% in the last seven days, extending its loss since the beginning of the year to 29%. Currently, the asset is trading at around $0.77, after seeing a 55% drop in trading volume in the last 24 hours.

Despite the negative trend, investors continue to accumulate XTZ. The Chaikin Money Flow (CMF) indicator signals a significant increase in inflows, suggesting growing confidence in the market. 

The analysts believe that the increase in buying pressure has a direct correlation with price movements. However, the funding rate of the asset continues to fluctuate between positive and negative territories.

Indicating therefore a lack of consensus among investors regarding the short-term direction of the asset.

In general, positive funding rates suggest the predominance of long contracts, while negative rates indicate a prevalence of short contracts. 

With mixed signals for XTZ, the market is going through a consolidation phase, with the price confined within the range of $0.76 and $0.87.

A breakout or a breakdown could drastically change the situation. Analysts predict that XTZ could reach $0.94 if the bull manage to take control. 

On the other hand, a failure in this attempt could lead the price to drop to $0.60.

Technological updates and impacts on the network

At the same time, the developers of Tezos are actively working to position the blockchain among the main ones in the sector. 

Recently, the 16th update of Tezos was published on the mainnet, reducing block finalization times to just 10 seconds. 

This update has been implemented to keep transaction fees low on the Ethereum Virtual Machine-compatible L2 network, Etherlink. After the update, Etherlink has become cheaper than Arbitrum and Optimism.

Arthur Breitman, co-founder of Tezos, commented on the matter as follows: 

“Thanks to the Paris update, Etherlink users will enjoy an improved UX: the L2 finalization time will be on par with that of Arbitrum One and Optimism, but the L1 publication latency will be (even) better.”

Currently, Etherlink has a transaction finalization time of 500 milliseconds, with data published on the main layer 1 in about 10 seconds. Comparatively, on 

Optimism and Arbitrum One, it would have taken respectively two minutes and seven minutes. 

Despite this, Arbitrum One and Optimism remain among the largest L2 solutions of Ethereum in terms of total value locked, with TVL of 19.2 billion dollars and 7.8 billion dollars respectively.

One of the main innovations of the Tezos update is the introduction of the Data Availability Layer (DAL), designed to enable Tezos Smart Rollup to scale to support millions of transactions per second (TPS) in the future. 

In July 2023, the Tezos rollup reached one million TPS, leveraging horizontal scalability with 1,000 rollup nodes running in parallel at 1,000 TPS each. Breitman confirmed the significant impact of this achievement: 

“The Paris update activates the Data Availability Layer (DAL) on the mainnet, increasing by several orders of magnitude the capacity of Tezos L1 to attest the publication of rollup data.”

In this article we will see some future price predictions of the crypto market, with a particular focus on Bitcoin and on altcoins like Ethereum.

There are several factors that influence the possible scenarios from now until the end of 2024, but it seems that experts agree that there will be a generally bullish second half of the year. The bull run might not be over yet.

All the details below.

The trends that could influence future price forecasts

According to the latest study by Ryan Lee, chief analyst at Bitget Research, the forecasts of the crypto market will be influenced by multiple factors.

Both Bitcoin and altcoin are wavering in uncertainty, with the latest price trend seeming to head towards retracement but without excessive violence.

At this point, it is likely that the forecasts on the evolution of prices by the end of the year will depend on the outcome of 3 very important events.

First and foremost, as Ryan Lee reminds us, the trend of the crypto industry is strongly influenced by macroeconomic dynamics on a global level.

If the Fed initiates a monetary policy of tightening easing with at least 1-2 cuts by the end of 2024, we could witness a strong return of liquidity to the market.

This is because a policy of rate cuts would push US investors to search for risk-on assets, moving away from the current high-yield bonds.

Already now we are starting to notice the first positive signs, with the money supply M3 of the USA that seems to be returning to incorporate liquidity at a positive pace after a period of stop.

Another vector of possible market shocks in the crypto market concerns the upcoming result of the U.S. presidential elections, expected in November.

The price forecasts of Bitcoin and altcoin will be more optimistic than usual if Donald Trump becomes the 47th president of the States.

Unlike Biden, in fact, the Republican is more favorable to the expansion of the crypto sector, so his win could bring a positive sentiment.

We remind that about 20% of the US population owns cryptocurrencies.

Finally, even the outcome of the spot ETH ETFs, which could potentially land on Wall Street by July 4th, will be crucial to understand the direction of the market.

If the influx of capital into the new exchange-traded funds for ether reaches the same numbers recorded by Bitcoin, there could be a strong bull in the quotations.

The increase in institutional demand for Ethereum could even push for a supply shock, also supporting the altcoin sector.

The market capitalization of the entire crypto sector and the Bitcoin dominance 

Before analyzing the possible forecasts of Bitcoin and altcoins, let’s focus on the state of the total capitalization of the crypto market.

At the moment the overall value of the cryptographic token industry is 2.21 trillion dollars, up 35% since the beginning of the year.

If we take the beginning of 2023 as a reference, the growth rises to approximately 190%. From March, however, it loses 20% of the quotations.

It is clear that after the shake-up of 2024, the market capitalization has recovered significantly, reaching the high zone without surpassing it.

According to the forecasts of Bitget Research, under the influence of the key factors mentioned above, a marketcap is expected to reach between 2.5 and 3.5 trillion dollars by the end of the year.

This translates into a substantial increase in the prices of the major market assets.

It is also worth noting how the growth of Bitcoin dominance has accompanied the increase in the capitalization of the crypto sector. 

Since January 2023 this index has grown by about 29%, indicating a confluence of capital around the main currency. During the same period, altcoins have lost ground in favor of stablecoins, and indeed Bitcoin.

From here on, it is possible that the dominance will continue to increase by the end of the year, with forecasts, however, talking about a possible reversal.

A strong drop in Bitcoin dominance, combined with a stable BTC price situation, could trigger a bull phase of altseason. 

Indicatively, watch out for the potential break of the 50% threshold.

Crypto analysis: price predictions for Bitcoin and altcoin for the end of 2024

Having reached this point, let’s see what the price forecasts estimated by Bitget Research for the end of 2024 are.

Given the current trends and the scenarios that could influence the crypto landscape, if there are no negative surprises, we would have a positive price action in the coming months. The bull phase is expected by the end of summer or the beginning of autumn, with an acceleration of the trend in the last months of the year.

In detail, the forecasts for Bitcoin speak of a price range between 70,000 and 100,000 dollars. The breaking of the historical highs seems only a matter of time, with the asset remaining steadily above 60,000 dollars.

On the altcoin front, the tokens belonging to the ecosystems of Ethereum and Solana will have the opportunity to take advantage of the potential growth of their gas tokens.

Ethereum, as the top 2nd currency in the market, is expected in a price range between 5,000 and 8,000 dollars. In such a context, it could even overperform Bitcoin after a long period of underperformance.

It is also worth noting the possible attractiveness of memecoin in a situation of optimism in the crypto markets, which will likely manage to attract large capitals again.

#BITCOIN TO HIT 100K BY THE END OF 2024?

Standard Chartered Bank maintains its forecast from April that Bitcoin (BTC) will reach $100,000 by the end of 2024. A major factor in this prediction is the anticipated approval of several U.S.-based spot Bitcoin ETFs in the first… pic.twitter.com/TQefOBv1Ty

— The Wolf Of All Streets (@scottmelker) November 28, 2023

Even the London bank Standard Chartered agrees that Bitcoin could reach the threshold of $100,000 by the end of the year.

The same financial institution has also predicted a maximum price of 250,000 dollars at the end of the bull run of 2025.

On the altcoin front, more precisely in Ethereum, Standard Chartered is equally optimistic aiming for a maximum price of 14,000 dollars by the end of the year.

The trend of ETF spot ETH will be crucial for the outcome of the ether market: all investors are currently awaiting the start of trading for these products.

AdsGram is the new advertising platform on Telegram that allows mini-app developers to earn in Toncoin (TON). 

Telegram: AdsGram allows earning in Toncoin (TON) from ads in mini-apps

The TON community has officially presented AdsGram, a new platform on Telegram that allows mini-app developers to earn in Toncoin. 

In practice, AdsGram is supported by the Fondazione TON, but remains owned by third parties.

This is a new and revolutionary traffic monetization tool that aims to simplify the traditional process of earning from advertisements. 

Here is the description with the words of the TON Community:

“With AdsGram, game and bot developers on Telegram can connect their mini-apps to an advertising system and start earning TON by displaying ads, simplifying the monetization process”

Not only that, it seems that with AdsGram, developers can choose from various ad formats, such as videos up to 15 seconds, static banners, and subscriptions to incoming channels. 

Other announced features include “advanced targeting,” which involves Premium Subscriptions to Telegram, type of device, platform, geographic area, and user language.

Furthermore, the efficiency of the new tool and its payment model as it supports CPM and tracks CTR, CPM, conversions, and Fill Rate.

Telegram and the introduction of AdsGram that pays in Toncoin (TON) from ads in mini-apps

On the contrary of AdsGram, the official advertising platform of Telegram remains Telegram Ads, launched last March and dedicated to the owners of the channels of the messaging app. 

Last February, however, AdsGram announced the support of the TON Foundation on X: 

One of the first achievements of our projects – of course, after assembling a team and creating a vision – was to get TON Foundation @ton_blockchain support with providing us a $50K grant for creation of an MVP of the product.

— Adsgram (@Adsgram_ai) February 13, 2024

“One of the first results of our projects – obviously after putting together a team and creating a vision – was to obtain the TON Foundation @ton_blockchain which provided us with a grant of $50,000 for the creation of an MVP of the product.”

In any case, from today, TON mini-app developers can earn up to 16 dollars CPM in Toncoin. 

Not only that, at the time of launch, the network features mini-apps like Gamee, Fonton Fantasy Football, and others, with the majority of traffic coming from countries like Nigeria, Bangladesh, Germany, and others.

The price of TON and the latest news of the month

At the time of writing, Toncoin (TON) is worth $7.72, in a price pump of 3.40% in the last 24 hours and +7% in the last seven days. 

It is a contrary trend to that recorded by the main cryptos like Bitcoin (BTC), which is actually in a dump of -7% in the last seven days. 

The rapid growth of Toncoin has placed TON currently in the eighth position in the overall crypto ranking, with a total market cap nearing 19 billion dollars. 

Looking at the entire month of June, the price of TON is in a 20% pump and this can also be justified by the latest news. 

The latest involves the crypto-exchange Bitget which announced that it has launched a 20 million dollar fund to be used to support new projects based on Telegram’s chain, TON.

Paramount has taken offline the archives of the famous website Mtv.com, and some are wondering if with the blockchain it could have been avoided. 

Paramount Deletes 20 Years of MTV News Articles as It Shuts Down Its Website
https://t.co/AMYajlXVhE

— MGZC Media TV (@mgztv) June 25, 2024

Paramount and MTV

MTV is a famous music television channel that was born in 1981. 

During the 1980s and 1990s of the last century, it became a true point of reference for the global musical community, especially for the youth. 

With the success of the Internet, however, it entered into a crisis. 

Starting from the early 2000s, it began to program content that was not specifically musical, but it was not enough. 

In 2010 it ceased to be a musical TV, and since then it has no longer been a protagonist. 

Since 1985 MTV has belonged to Viacom, which in 2019 became Paramount Global. 

So MTV has belonged to the same ownership for almost 40 years, even though in the meantime the ownership has changed name and structure. 

Paramount ends Mtv.com: would it have been different with blockchain?

The website of MTV, Mtv.com, was created in 1995, and was mainly known for news and interviews. 

But MTV News was shut down last year due to financial problems of the parent company, Paramount Global, and therefore effectively stopped producing news and interviews to publish on the site. 

On Monday, Paramount Global decided to eliminate the entire news section from the site, including the twenty-year archive. Now the mtv.com/news section of the site redirects to the home page, because it is simply no longer online. 

The site still exists, just like MTV still exists, but it only advertises the series that are broadcast on the TV channel. Practically, there is no longer any trace of music or news on the site. 

Paramount: the blockchain could have saved Mtv.com

What most annoyed the fans is the disappearance of the archive, because it contained twenty years of musical and non-musical news. 

Although there are still several online magazines that cover music news, the disappearance of that archive has not gone unnoticed. 

There are those who claim that in this way decades of cultural history have been destroyed due to a centralized point of failure, and that this is one of the many reasons why the future of media would be on-chain. 

MTV News site is gone with more than 20 years of archives erased

Decades of cultural history destroyed due to a centralized point of failure

One of many reasons why the future of media is onchain

— medved (@mattmedved) June 27, 2024

The concept is that on a true decentralized blockchain nothing can be deleted by anyone. Everything that is recorded on the blockchain continues to exist forever, as long as the blockchain remains active. 

However, an important clarification needs to be made.

On true decentralized blockchains, the cost of data registration is quite high. This means that there is a tendency not to register all the actual data, but unique hashes that represent them. 

There are, however, complementary services that allow you to associate a file with those hashes, and some of these are also decentralized. 

It should be noted, however, that for example, the video of an interview can generate a file of several Megabytes, if not even Gigabytes, so the cost of a true on-chain permanent storage might not be negligible, especially in the case where many similar contents need to be archived. 

Register or archive

Therefore, on one hand, there is the mere registration in blockchain, which can be economical but involves on-chain storage of only a unique hash code that represents the file. 

Another thing is the actual storage of the entire file on-chain, which can be done but with much higher costs. Furthermore, even in this case, the platforms that allow the true storage of entire files on-chain actually keep the files on machines controlled by individuals, and this constitutes a form of centralized storage.

The solution is to distribute multiple copies of the same file on multiple machines, in a distributed manner, but it is not easy to imagine that many would be willing to make large amounts of memory space on their machines available to everyone. 

In fact, there is already a whole market for these on-chain distributed storage spaces, but it is difficult to imagine that those who have a lot of content to store in this way will accept paying the high cost. 

The future of data storage

Nonetheless, it is correct to state that the problem of the disappearance of public archives of news and interviews from Mtv.com is due to a centralized issue, as well as that the future is decentralization. 

It is probably still too early to imagine that a company like Paramount Global could really resort to expensive decentralized solutions to store data that can instead be stored much more easily, and above all much more economically, with centralized solutions. 

Regarding the future of decentralization, the artist Mattia Cuttini stated: 

“Blockchain technology but even more so decentralization represent more and more the future of media every day. Whether the data are works of art or articles on emerging bands, these new technologies are undoubtedly a step forward in preserving culture.”

Whale in movement: a Bitcoin wallet that had been inactive for 14 years suddenly moved 50 BTC, equivalent to over 3 million dollars, transferring them to the exchange platform Binance. 

This event takes place in a context of a bearish market trend, where some large entities, known as whales, are taking advantage of the decline to buy, while others remain cautious.

Let’s see all the details below. 

Whale di Bitcoin tra cautela e opportunità: l’ultimo movimento di un vecchio wallet 

As anticipated, amidst the negative trend climate in the crypto sector, some large entities, known as balene, have seized the opportunity to buy during the dip, while others have preferred to maintain a cautious attitude.

An extraordinary event has recently captured the attention of the criptovalute community: a dormant Bitcoin miner wallet has resurfaced after 14 years of inactivity.

This wallet has moved 50 BTC, equivalent to over 3 million dollars, to the Binance exchange platform. This movement was revealed by Lookonchain, which highlighted the transfer of 3.05 million dollars in Bitcoin.

According to the available information, these Bitcoin were mined on July 14, 2010, from block 67,254, which earned the miner a reward of 50 BTC. 

The block data shows that there have been four transactions for a total of 1.085,85 BTC with a difficulty of 45,38682234. The relevance of these Bitcoin mined so early is remarkable, as they represent some of the most sought-after coins on the market. 

The sudden movements of these assets can indicate different things: a renewed interest in the cryptocurrency by the original holders, or concerns regarding the security of the old private keys.

Opportunities and uncertainties in the market 

This is not the first case in which an inactive miner wallet has started moving again. In March, another Bitcoin miner wallet transferred about 2,000 BTC after being inactive for 14 years, sparking similar speculations among investors.

At the moment, Bitcoin is being traded at around 60,940.29 dollars. The cryptocurrency has dropped from a high of 61,500 dollars to a low of 60,619 dollars, recording a decrease of 7.18% in the last seven days. 

This latest drop occurred after the United States government transferred a total of 3,940 BTC to Coinbase Prime. 

Furthermore, at the beginning of this week, the German government was also seen moving a significant amount of cryptocurrency, further contributing to market volatility.

The awakening of ancient Bitcoin wallets and the movements of the whales continue to influence the market, creating a mix of opportunities and uncertainties for investors.

The transfer of 3,940 Bitcoin from the United States to Coinbase Prime

On June 26, the United States government made a significant transfer of 3,940 Bitcoin to Coinbase Prime, the institutional trading platform of Coinbase. This movement was reported by the blockchain analysis company Arkham Intelligence.

The transferred Bitcoins were initially confiscated from Banmeet Singh, a convicted drug trafficker, at the beginning of 2024. Singh had been arrested in London in 2019 on charges of drug distribution and extradited to the United States in 2023. 

As part of his sentence, Singh had to surrender over 8,100 Bitcoin, which at the time were worth about 150 million dollars, to the US authorities.

Despite the recent transfer of nearly 4,000 Bitcoin being significant, it represents only a small portion of the total Bitcoin owned by the government.

According to the available data, the United States government currently holds approximately 214,000 Bitcoin, with a total value of over 13 billion dollars. Making it the largest national holder of Bitcoin in the world.

Much of these reserves come from seizures related to the dark web market Silk Road and the well-known Bitfinex hack of 2016. These events have significantly contributed to the government’s Bitcoin stockpile.

The transfer to Coinbase suggests that the government might intend to sell some of its long-dormant Bitcoin reserves. 

This movement has raised concerns regarding a possible impact on prices, similar to what was recently observed with the sale by the German government.

However, the amount transferred so far is relatively small compared to the daily trading volumes of Bitcoin. The government of the United States continues to hold the majority of its seized reserves.

The value of these has increased significantly thanks to the rise in the price of Bitcoin.

In the midst of the media campaign for the approval of Ethereum ETFs, artificial intelligence (AI) has ventured some price predictions for ETH.

Today, ETH experienced a brief recovery, reaching a high of $3,418. However, this rise was followed by a significant drop, bringing the price to $3,355.39 with a daily decrease of 1.84%.

The price movements of Ethereum (ETH) and the use of AI as an evaluation tool

This volatility has sparked the debate on what the price of ETH (Ethereum) could be in the near future, and the use of artificial intelligence (AI) to predict such movements is becoming increasingly popular.

Artificial intelligence is revolutionizing many sectors, including financial markets. AI algorithms can analyze enormous amounts of data in real-time, identifying patterns and trends that might escape the human eye. 

This makes AI a valuable tool for predicting the price movements of cryptocurrencies like Ethereum.

One of the main methodologies used by AI for price prediction is sentiment analysis. This process involves collecting and analyzing data from social media, forums, financial news, and other online sources to assess investors’ sentiment towards a particular asset. 

For example, a general positive sentiment could indicate an increase in price, while a negative sentiment could predict a decrease.

Another common approach is technical analysis, which uses historical price data to identify trends and patterns. AI algorithms can analyze this information much faster and with greater precision compared to humans, providing more accurate predictions. 

For Ethereum, technical analysis might include the study of recent price fluctuations, trading volumes, and other technical indicators to predict future price movements.

In addition to sentiment analysis and technical analysis, AI can also incorporate macroeconomic and market factors to provide more comprehensive forecasts. 

For example, the impact of regulations, technological development, and the adoption of Ethereum’s blockchain can all influence the price of ETH. AI algorithms can aggregate and analyze these factors to offer a more holistic view of the market.

The price predictions of ETH

For July 1, 2024, the price predictions for Ethereum based on AI vary depending on the model used and the data considered. 

Some models predict a price increase thanks to the introduction of ETH ETFs, which could attract a greater number of institutional investors and increase demand. 

Other models, however, indicate that the current global economic difficulties and market volatility of criptovalute could continue to exert downward pressure on the price of Ethereum.

For example, if the introduction of ETH ETFs were to lead to a wave of institutional investments, the price of Ethereum could rise significantly, potentially surpassing historical highs. 

However, if macroeconomic conditions were to worsen or if new restrictive regulations were to emerge, the price of ETH could continue to fall.

Conclusions

In conclusion, the use of artificial intelligence to predict the price of Ethereum offers a powerful tool for investors. 

However, it is important to remember that, despite the advanced analytical capabilities of AI, predictions are never 100% certain. Cryptocurrency markets are notoriously volatile and influenced by a wide range of factors. 

Therefore, investors should use AI-based forecasts as one of the many tools in their decision-making arsenal and continue to closely monitor market conditions.

Zora, blockchain layer-2 di Ethereum focalizzata sul tema NFT, è sbarcato pochi giorni fa sul DEX Uniswap aprendo nuove connessioni con il mondo DeFi.

From now on, Zora users can take advantage of the convenient and prestigious interface of the decentralized exchange to swap and/or provide liquidity on different pools.

Uniswap has also launched NFT support to facilitate the onboarding of new users on the optimistic rollup: a future airdrop is also in sight.

Let’s see everything in detail below.

The blockchain of Zora live on the leading DeFi sector DEX Uniswap

The n°1 DEX in the crypto sector Uniswap has just inaugurated official support for the Zora blockchain, layer-2 optimistic rollup of Ethereum.

On June 25, both teams revealed the good news to their respective communities, who can now gather around the new integration.

On one hand, the cryptographic exchange expands its suite of available networks, which now counts as many as 11 infrastructures after the recent launch of Blast.

On the other hand, Zora joins a particularly attractive exchange platform in the DeFi world, capable of multiplying the trading volume for the innovative network.

In detail, the integration allows users to trade assets available on Zora through the swap function, both from the web and from the mobile app.

To do this, simply enter the “swap” section of Uniswap, select the Zora network among the supported networks, and indicate the trading pair.

Then choose the quantity to exchange and the direction (e.g., swap ETH for USDC or USDC for ETH) and click on “swap”.

In some cases, the approval of token spending is necessary through smart contract, as in every DEX for cryptocurrencies.

It is possible at the same time to act as a liquidity provider (LP) at one of the various Uniswap pools available on Zora.

By providing liquidity you can earn a share of the fees paid by users to use your funds lent in the pool to perform swaps. Generally, this varies based on the pair, the amount of trades, and the expected commission.

To access this feature, simply go to the “pool” option on the DEX, click on “new position” and select the pair you want to provide.

Then indicate the tariff level of the commissions, and deposit the indicated assets according to a 50/50 ratio.

Support for NFT on Uniswap Wallet

We remind you that the blockchain of Zora is focused on the development of a layer for the buying and selling of NFTs, therefore non-fungible assets.

The DEX Uniswap is instead a platform focused on the exchange of fungible assets, without a dedicated section for the trade of authentic coins (such as Blur or OpenSea)

The partnership therefore seems to include the functions “swap” and “LP” without however touching the main button of the layer-2 Zora.

In any case, Uniswap, to meet the demands of all its users, has also launched support for Zora Network NFT through the mobile app.

In this section, you can easily view NFTs on various networks of the wallet, including Base, Optimism, and indeed Zora.

From the website, a dedicated environment is also available, indicated precisely by the term “NFT”, where you can search for collections and trade this type of asset.

It is worth highlighting in any case how even without the NFT feature, this collaboration between the parties is fundamental for the growth of their respective ecosystems.

For Uniswap, it means expanding its service offerings while for Zora, it represents an opportunity to increase visibility and usage.

The move is generally seen as a positive step towards greater interoperability and functionality in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space.

This news follows a trend of continuous growth in the DeFi sector, with more and more platforms seeking to integrate with each other to offer an all-in-one investment solution. The integration of Zora Network into Uniswap is a clear example of this trend that aims to aggregate the best infrastructures around a single hub.

The growth of Zora’s TVL in recent months: possible launch of airdrop

The TVL of the Zora blockchain has increased significantly since its mainnet launch on June 21, 2023, achieving excellent results.

As of today, it has a total amount of bridged assets amounting to 26.88 million dollars according to L2Beat data, almost triple compared to the data at the beginning of the year.

On May 23, 2024, it had reached the record of 36.9 million dollars in TVL, but then it recorded a slight decline in the metric.

We are talking about much smaller figures compared to the leading networks in the Ethereum layer-2, but it should be contextualized to the market that Zora is targeting.

It is clear that compared to chains more focused on DeFi like Arbitrum, Op Mainnet and Base, this chain is very far behind in terms of TVL.

However, it is not excluded that thanks to the integration with Uniswap it may gradually increase its popularity and attract liquidity even in secondary contexts.

At the moment Zora is the 33rd chain in the ranking of the most “rich” rollups, behind Zkfair, Rhino.fi, and Lyra, and ahead of Sorare, Kinto, and Paradex.

In the last 30 days, the blockchain has processed 3.5 million tx with a throughput speed of 1.72 TPS. The optimistic rollup is still at its STAGE 0, so its sequencers are still excessively centralized.

Zora could also release a governance token via airdrop in the coming months, rewarding the entire active community of the network.

For those who are farming this airdrop, it might be a good idea to mint the new commemorative NFT of the integration of Zora with Uniswap. 

Obviously, this alone would not be enough to be eligible, and other on-chain activities focused on the world of non-fungible tokens would be needed.

Uniswap x Zora “Uni Zorb” NFT can be minted at the price of 0.00119 ETH, equivalent to approximately 4 dollars.

Already 127,000 users have taken the opportunity to try to get a boost on the airdrop, simultaneously guaranteeing the creator of the collection a prize of 68 ETH.

— Airdrop Adventure (@Airdrop_Adv) February 17, 2024

In the world of finance, the terms “bull” and “bear” are often used to describe market trends. A “bull” market is characterized by rising prices, while a “bear” market is marked by falling prices. Understanding these concepts is crucial for investors.

Between yesterday and today, the collapse of the Bitcoin price that started over the weekend has ended. 

The situation seemed to be critical, but in the end, it turned out to be solid anyway.

The collapse of Bitcoin and the price analysis today

In reality, although many have defined it that way, it was not a true and proper collapse. 

The loss, however, was clear and swift, even though it was perfectly in line with the behavior of the last four months. 

On Sunday, the price of BTC was around $64,300, but starting in the evening it began to fall. The decline continued through the night and persisted throughout the day on Monday.

In the end, after dropping below $59,000 with a loss of more than 8% in just over 24 hours, it recorded a small rebound that eventually brought it back above the $61,000 mark. 

Today, however, it has fallen back below $61,000, although still above $60,000.

The fact is that last Thursday it was above $66,000, and the previous Monday it was also above $67,000. Not to mention the fact that about twenty days ago it had almost reached $72,000. 

So in less than three weeks it lost more than 15%, and on Monday the cumulative loss was even higher. 

The lateralization

Although these numbers may clearly suggest that there has been a real and proper collapse, extending the analysis backward, one realizes that talking about a collapse is actually not appropriate. 

In fact, the current price is still well above that of February 27, when it rose above $57,000. 

Practically from February 27 until today the price of Bitcoin has not yet returned to the levels just before.

In fact, 2024 started at around $42,000, and even on February 26 it had not surpassed $55,000. 

After that growth phase, there was actually another one, which, however, lasted only a couple of weeks. At that point, after recording new all-time highs at around $73,800, a long period of lateralization began, still ongoing, during which the price has always fluctuated more or less between $57,000 and $72,000. 

It is a very wide range of fluctuation, but this is not at all unusual with regard to the price of Bitcoin.

During this phase of lateralization within such a wide range, the average price around which Bitcoin has oscillated has been approximately $64,000. 

The price situation today after the Bitcoin crash 

In light of this, while it cannot be said that Sunday and Monday were a true and proper collapse, it can be said that the current price is below the average of the last four months. 

The key points are three. 

The first is precisely $64,000, which is the average price of the last 4 months, since Bitcoin entered lateralization. 

The second is the $72,000, which is the wall beyond which it does not seem to be able to go during this period. 

The third is $57,000, which is the bottom of the current lateralization range. 

At this moment it is very far from the wall of $72,000, but not yet particularly close to the bottom of this phase. However, it is indeed below the average price. 

The last days

In recent days, the price of Bitcoin seems particularly sensitive to the strength of the dollar. 

On June 7, the dollar began to strengthen, and this strengthening process seems destined to persist. The hypothesis is that until the US presidential elections on November 5, it is unlikely that the dollar will start to weaken, while after the elections it could indeed begin to do so. 

It is not at all a coincidence that starting from June 7th the price of Bitcoin began to fall, dropping from more than $71,000 to less than $61,000 in less than three weeks. 

In particular, first on Friday, and then on Monday after the weekend break, the Dollar Index had returned to around 105.9 points, while on June 6 it was at 104, and this probably triggered the collapse of the past few days. 

Certainly, the heavy sales of BTC by miners have also contributed, and the news of other liquidations like those of Mt.Gox or the German and American governments, but yesterday the collapse stopped in an unusual way.

In fact, the Dollar Index has risen above 106 points, even though it has now slightly fallen below this threshold, but the price of Bitcoin has not reacted negatively, except with a return below $61,000. 

So between yesterday and today the collapse of the past few days has definitely come to an end. 

The famous decentralized exchange PancakeSwap has just launched an AI-based prediction market on the Arbitrum blockchain.

The new stock exchange allows users to bet on the very short-term price trends.

It is therefore possible to bet on an imminent bull or bear, following or going against the strategy proposed by artificial intelligence.

Thanks to the launch of this new market on Arbitrum, which as a chain is growing a lot, PancakeSwap reduces the competition with the competitor Poly Market.

Let’s see all the details below.

PancakeSwap and the new prediction market on Arbitrum powered by AI

PancakeSwap, a well-known multichain decentralized exchange platform, has just launched a prediction market on the blockchain of Arbitrum integrated with AI technology.

This type of exchange, which as mentioned allows betting on the trend of crypto market prices, will be powered by data from Allora Labs.

This company leverages AI machine learning by offering clients of the DEX a price prediction strategy for ETH every 10 minutes.

It is therefore possible to bet following the strategy offered by artificial intelligence, or bet against it: if the position is in “UP” you win if the price of ether is higher than at the start of the bet, if instead the position is in “DOWN”, you win if the price is lower.

The prize varies greatly based on the volatility of prices and high multipliers can also be reached, while at the same time it is possible to lose the entire amount in case of a negative outcome.

At the moment Ether is the only tradable currency on this section of Arbitrum, while on other networks bets in BNB and CAKE are also available.

Source: https://pancakeswap.finance/prediction?token=ETH&chain=arb

Until recently, this type of prediction market on Pancakeswap was only available on the BNB chain and ZKsync Era blockchains.

The platform will most likely aim to increasingly expand its multichain presence in this type of marketplaces.

In a recent interview, the product manager of PancakeSwap “chef Gyoza”, explained why the DEX decided to collaborate with the team of Allora:

“In the last three years, the models built by the Allora Labs team (formerly known as Upshot) have effectively produced price forecasts for over 400 million assets with 95 – 99% confidence for the most accurate forecasts.”

We remind you that while Allora Labs deals with AI betting strategies, the oracle that provides the asset price feed is always Chainlink.

The competition with Polymarket is growing: a prize pool of 60,000 ARB is up for grabs 

The aggressive entry of PancakeSwap into this delicate sector with the landing on the Arbitrum chain puts pressure on the main predictive market Polymarket.

This latest one turns out to be the dominant platform in this niche to date, offering betting options on a wide range of events from the real world.

These include for example the outcome of the USA presidential elections, political debates, football events, geopolitical events, breaking news, debate bingo and much more.

In any case, you can only bet on “YES” or on “NO”, with odds that vary from time to time based on the probabilities of the event.

Polymarket, operating on the Polygon network, has grown significantly from 2023 onwards, increasing from a TVL of 4 million dollars to the current sum of 36.6 million dollars.

Source: https://defillama.com/protocol/polymarket#information

PancakeSwap, although it offers a much more immature prediction tool based solely and exclusively on the trend of cryptocurrency prices, could still threaten the current market share of Polymarket.

In fact, thanks to the AI feature, users will have a substantial advantage by being able to follow strategies with a higher probability of winning. Alternatively, they can go against the software’s choices but with significantly higher odds.

Gyoza summarized the new prediction market, saying:

“PancakeSwap users will be able to follow or oppose the AI’s prediction. With the AI’s performance and record in our tests reaching an accuracy close to 65%, users will have to choose when to oppose the AI, which will naturally have higher odds.”

Additionally, the participants of this market have the opportunity to win a portion of the prize pool of 60,000 ARB in each 10-minute round.

This type of incentive attracts even more users from other predictive markets, creating a fertile ground for the growth of PanceSwap and putting a spoke in the wheels of other competitors.

PancakeSwap increasingly focused on AI

The choice of PancakeSwap to rely on AI in the prediction markets reflects the development of a technology that provides very accurate and timely information.

This type of integration is such as to offer DEX users a betting experience decidedly superior to that of other platforms.

It is not, in any case, the first time that PanckeSwap dives into the world of artificial intelligence.

Recently, in fact, the decentralized exchange announced the launch of CupcakeHop, an intelligent portfolio management tool developed by Bril Finance.

This new invention, which will be ready for use in August, is designed to offer personalized investment strategies, based on certain factors.

Simply in this sense, the exposure to risk and the pursuit of certain financial objectives will be sufficient to set a precise strategy.

Furthermore, as stated by its developers, CupcakeHop would have the ability to redefine yield optimization and cross-chain liquidity. 

This type of instruments are in line with the market trends of cryptocurrency and reflect the needs of the search for liquidity for cross-chain DEX.

The use of AI is also becoming increasingly widespread in many areas of daily life, both within and outside the blockchain landscape.

It is clear that PanceSwap’s choice to increasingly rely on artificial intelligence is aimed at being ready for structural market changes and keeping up with innovations.

We will see if thanks to these new integrations the platform will be able to bring new active users and attract new liquidity, increasing its market share.

The challenge and competition in the crypto market is becoming increasingly tough also and especially “because of” AI.

The cryptocurrency market is constantly evolving and three of the cryptos that are attracting the attention of investors are Tron (TRX), Shiba Inu (SHIB), and Cardano (ADA). 

In this article, we will examine the current prices and market statistics of these cryptocurrencies, followed by the latest news concerning them.

Prices and news of the crypto Tron, Shiba Inu, and Cardano

Tron is a blockchain platform founded by Justin Sun with the goal of decentralizing the web through blockchain technology. TRX is the native cryptocurrency of this network. At the time of writing this article, the price of Tron (TRX) is around $0.11.

Tron has a market capitalization of approximately $10.8 billion and a daily trading volume that exceeds $280 million. The total supply of TRX is about 100 billion tokens, with a circulating supply close to 89 billion.

Shiba Inu is a meme cryptocurrency that has gained popularity due to its similarity to Dogecoin, but with an expanding ecosystem that includes ShibaSwap, a decentralized exchange. Currently, the price of Shiba Inu (SHIB) is around $0.000017. 

The market capitalization of SHIB is about $10 billion, with a daily trading volume hovering around $200 million. The total supply of SHIB is astronomical, with one quadrillion tokens, of which about 549 trillion are in circulation.

Cardano is an open-source blockchain platform that uses a research-based approach to develop advanced technologies. Founded by Charles Hoskinson, one of the co-founders of Ethereum, Cardano aims to create a scalable and secure blockchain network. 

At the moment, the price of Cardano (ADA) is around $0.38. The market capitalization of ADA is about $13.5 billion, with a daily trading volume approaching $260 million. The total supply of ADA is 45 billion tokens, of which about 35 billion are in circulation.

Recent news on Tron, Shiba Inu, and Cardano

Recently, Tron has made headlines due to its growing adoption in decentralized finance (DeFi).

The platform has seen a significant increase in the total value locked (TVL) in its DeFi protocols, surpassing $10 billion. This increase has been partly attributed to the integration with several popular DeFi platforms and the increased support for TRC-20 tokens.

Additionally, Tron has announced a series of strategic partnerships, including one with a major streaming platform that aims to leverage Tron’s blockchain to decentralize content distribution.

Regarding Shiba Inu, one of the most relevant news was the introduction of Shibarium, a layer 2 solution that aims to improve scalability and reduce transaction fees on the Ethereum network.

Shibarium promises to make transactions with SHIB more efficient and less costly, which could incentivize greater use of the cryptocurrency.

Additionally, the Shiba Inu community has been actively involved in charity initiatives and fundraising, increasing visibility and support for the project. Recently, Shiba Inu also announced collaboration with various NFT marketplaces, further expanding its ecosystem.

Cardano has continued to progress with its roadmap, with a particular focus on the Hydra upgrade, which aims to significantly improve the scalability of the network. Hydra is a layer 2 protocol designed to increase transaction speed and reduce costs, making Cardano an even more competitive platform.

Additionally, Cardano has formed partnerships with various governmental and non-governmental organizations in Africa to implement blockchain solutions that address digital identity and financial inclusion issues. 

Recently, Cardano has also announced the launch of new tools for developers, facilitating the creation of decentralized applications (dApp) on its platform.

Conclusions

Tron, Shiba Inu e Cardano sono tre cryptocurrencies con caratteristiche e obiettivi molto diversi, ma tutte stanno facendo passi significativi nel loro sviluppo. 

Tron continues to expand in the DeFi sector, Shiba Inu is improving its scalability and efficiency, while Cardano progresses with technological updates and strategic partnerships. 

The future of these cryptocurrencies seems promising, with developments that could lead to greater adoption and market value. Investors and enthusiasts should keep an eye on these cryptocurrencies to see how they will evolve in the coming months.

Animoca Brands, the giant of gaming and metaverse, is aiming to return to the stock market by 2025, considering Hong Kong and the Middle East.

The decision comes after four years from the delisting from the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), which occurred in 2020. 

Animoca Brands considers returning to the stock market by 2025 in crypto-friendly jurisdictions

Animoca Brands, the important investor in Web3 gaming and cryptocurrencies, has announced that it is considering a return to the stock market by 2025.

After four years since the delisting from the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), which occurred in 2020, Animoca Brands is now aiming for a more crypto-friendly jurisdiction. 

And so, it seems that the Web3 giant is oriented to choose whether to list on the stock exchanges of Hong Kong or the Middle East. At the moment, however, it appears that, despite the various talks held with investment banks, Animoca Brands has not yet chosen a consultant.

In fact, the company known also for investments in Non-Fungible Token (NFT) and in crypto gaming companies, has not yet decided the location of a potential initial public offering (IPO).

According to the latest financial report, Animoca Brands has a total asset value of 2.7 billion dollars, of which 558 million represent crypto assets.

Animoca Brands and the return to the stock market by next year

The return to the stock market by Animoca Brands could also mean a slap in the face to the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX) after its delisting decision. 

It was March 2020, in fact, when the AXS delisted Animoca Brands stating that its main concern was the compliance of the Web3 and crypto investor with the listing rules. 

In practice, the AXS was based on the fact that the investments of the Web3 and crypto gaming giant acted inconsistently with the financial and asset regulations of the stock exchange at that time. 

On the contrary, Hong Kong and the Middle East would be more crypto-friendly jurisdictions for Animoca Brands.

And indeed, in this very 2024, Hong Kong has made headlines for approving in April the ETFs on Bitcoin and Ethereum spot. Not only that, as is now well known, Hong Kong aims to become a regional hub for crypto.

The Middle East also continues its race to embrace the revolution of the crypto sector more and more. Recently, Dubai has made headlines as the Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority is reportedly examining strategies to reduce the compliance costs for businesses with its directives, especially regarding crypto.

In practice, unlike what happens in the USA, in Dubai they are trying to find legal solutions to simplify life for crypto companies. 

The launch of the NFT Sorah launchpad

Also in this month of June, Animoca Brands Japan has launched its launchpad NFT Sorah. It is a platform that serves to support projects and creators in selling their Non-Fungible Tokens. 

Specifically, the new launchpad aims to provide sales opportunities and multifaceted support for sales and marketing strategies, for all NFT projects that will be selected. 

Not only that, on Sorah, there will also be a loyalty program like an NFT, which will allow users to receive various benefits. 

The new platform by Animoca Brands Japan could become that Web3 portal that better connects Japan with the global community. 

Worldcoin, the AI project of iris scanning by Sam Altman, has announced a partnership with Alchemy for its own blockchain. 

Artificial intelligence in the crypto world

Currently within the crypto sector, artificial intelligence is not yet widely used. 

There are several crypto projects related to AI, but often these are mainly connections due to marketing and narrative, rather than true structural connections at a technical level with intelligenza artificiale.

And so even a project that has only little to do with AI, like Worldcoin, in the crypto market is commonly associated with artificial intelligence.

In traditional markets, the reference stock for AI is Nvidia. During this 2024, the price of the NVDA stock has recorded three major increases, one until February, another until March, and then, after a period of descending lateralization lasting more than two months, a third powerful rise concluded last week with the new all-time high. 

The token WLD (Worldcoin)

The trend of the price of WLD, the Worldcoin token, followed a similar pattern only until March, with two major rises: one ending in late February, and another ending just before mid-March, exactly like the NVDA stock.

However, the next phase for WLD was not a descending lateralization, but a true retracement, with the price dropping from $11.7 to $4.4 within a month. 

On the other hand, at the beginning of the year, a real mini.bubble had inflated on the price of WLD, which went from $2.4 to $11.7 in a few months, so a retracement was entirely expected. 

The problem is that when the last powerful rally of Nvidia’s stock price started, Worldcoin’s token went back down. In fact, in the last month, it has dropped from $4.6 to the current $2.7. 

It practically seems to be returning to the starting point, that is, before the mini-bubble of 2024 began to inflate due to an incorrect association of the WLD token with the artificial intelligence trend in the markets. 

AI: The new course of Worldcoin and the integration with Alchemy on its own blockchain

After the burst of this mini-bubble, and several problems encountered in different parts of the world with the authorities, Worldcoin seems to have decided on a change of course. 

It is not a 180° reversal, but an evolution. 

In fact, they have decided to start working on their own blockchain, instead of continuing to move forward on Ethereum.

Technically their World Chain has been active, on an experimental basis, since April, but only recently was the partnership with Alchemy announced.

Just in: Worldcoin is partnering with @AlchemyPlatform to bring World Chain to life pic.twitter.com/ECKikbkXby

— Worldcoin (@worldcoin) June 26, 2024

The objective is to build the infrastructure for its blockchain (World Chain), which will be the new home for its World ID and the World App.

AI: Alchemy lands on Worldcoin’s blockchain

World Chain is a new blockchain that has been designed specifically for human-centered applications. 

Obviously, it will integrate perfectly with the Worldcoin protocol, and it will work thanks to Optimism, and therefore to the wider Ethereum ecosystem, as part of the Superchain.

The collaboration with Optimism had already been announced last year, so this evolution is nothing more than the continuation of the original roadmap of the Worldcoin project. 

Optimism is one of the four most important layer-2 of Ethereum, therefore the new blockchain of Worldcoin will also continue to be part of the Ethereum ecosystem. 

The goal of developing a Superchain by Worldcoin is to make it possible for developers to create applications that improve everyday life. 

For now, there is still nothing concrete, but the roadmap is still only at the beginning. 

The infrastructure of Alchemy 

Alchemy offers developers a complete development platform for their rollup. 

They claim to have an ultra-reliable and scalable infrastructure, a comprehensive developer platform, distribution to the largest developer base in web3, global support with qualified engineers 24/7, and they state to be the only provider of Rollups-as-a-Service capable of supporting customer needs for a reliable infrastack and a developer-driven growth engine in a single rollup platform.

In the context of the partnership with Worldcoin, Alchemy will integrate its complete platform into World Chain, including the main node APIs, account abstraction for smart wallet, data indexing, and more. Thus, all Alchemy developers will have immediate access to World Chain through a few clicks on the dashboard.

Additionally, they support the implementation of World ID by committing to promote it as a fundamental element of the web3 infrastructure.

Crypto analysts have released Q3 price forecasts for Pepe and Brett  based on their recent performance and evolving market dynamics in the crypto industry.

Judging from this forecast, Raboo ($RABT) presale token, with nearly $2 million raised and an entry price of $0.0048 in Stage 4, is poised to offer substantial returns, affirming it as one of the best altcoins to invest in 2024. 

Pepe coin faces volatility amidst whale’s massive 1 trillion coin transfer to binance

A large-scale transfer of 1 trillion Pepe coins to Binance by a notable whale has stirred bearish concerns despite a recent price rally. This move that affected Pepe, detailed by Arkham Intelligence, included three transactions totaling 1.1 trillion coins, valued at $14.42 million, potentially signaling significant market impact if sold.

Despite the uncertainty surrounding the whale’s intentions—whether panic selling or strategic moves—the broader crypto community remains divided amidst the market volatility that has caused Pepe’s price to decline by 2.59% this month.

Q3 price forecast for Pepe according to Changelly, a crypto price and data analytics platform, predicts Pepe to trade between $0.0000126 and $0.0000103 between July to September, 2024. 

Brett coin surges following kucoin announcement and influencer optimism

Brett, a meme coin launched three months ago,recently  experienced a notable 14% surge, making it a top gainer in the cryptocurrency market. The surge in Brett’s price follows an announcement by KuCoin on June 25 regarding a Twitter Space fireside chat featuring the Brett team. This event has sparked significant community interest, bolstered by a $1,000 Brett giveaway, serving as a potential catalyst for increased trading activity and price appreciation. 

Additionally, influential trader Andrew Crypto (@MrTastycalls) expressed optimism about Brett’s short-term prospects, highlighting technical indicators suggesting a breakout and predicting a potential rise in the coming week.

Q3 price forecast for Brett, according to AmbCrypto, a crypto price analytics platform, predicts Brett to trade between $0.011 to $0.28 between July to September, 2024. Overall, Brett’s recent performance underscores its growing prominence within the crypto market, positioning it as one of the best cryptos to buy in 2024.

Raboo: Pioneering AI meme coin set to redefine socialfi and memefi in 2024

Raboo, a new AI meme coin built on the Ethereum ERC-20 network, aims to cultivate a dynamic community through cutting-edge technology. With a unique proposition of 0% buy and sell taxes, Raboo focuses on incentivizing engagement through its AI-backed meme ecosystem. This approach is designed to empower users to earn rewards for social media interactions, blending SocialFi and MemeFi concepts to pioneer a new frontier in digital content monetization.

Analysts are bullish on Raboo’s potential, predicting a 233% growth during its presale phase and a staggering 100x increase on its launch day. Positioned to challenge established memecoins like Pepe, Raboo sets its sights on becoming a top 20 cryptocurrency by market capitalization. By fostering global connections among memecoin enthusiasts, Raboo aims to create a vibrant and cohesive community centered around the creation and sharing of digital memes, which will ultimately position it as one of the best altcoins to invest in 2024.

Through Raboo’s presale token innovative Post-to-Earn platform, memecoin enthusiasts can now monetize their social media content directly on the blockchain. This initiative not only democratizes content creation but also integrates SocialFi and MemeFi functionalities, offering a seamless blend of memes and digital interaction. Raboo envisions a future where the fusion of blockchain technology and meme culture enhances community engagement and drives its ascent in the competitive cryptocurrency landscape.

Conclusion

Amidst broader market volatility, Pepe has experienced a decline of 2.59% this month, contrasting with Brett’s ongoing surge and optimistic Q3 price projections. The trajectory for Pepe remains uncertain while Brett is anticipated to surge amid bullish sentiment in the coming quarter. Meanwhile, Raboo’s impressive 60% increase since its initial stage has captured the attention of crypto analysts, highlighting its profit potential as one of the best cryptos to buy in 2024.

In the fast-paced world of cryptocurrencies, new tokens often emerge, offering fresh opportunities for investors. Among the latest to make a significant impact is Mpeppe (MPEPE), which has caught the eye of Shiba Inu (SHIB) investors. This article explores why Shiba Inu (SHIB) holders are jumping on board with Mpeppe (MPEPE) and how this new altcoin is sending shock waves through the crypto community.

Mpeppe (MPEPE) Attracts Shiba Inu (SHIB) Investors

Mpeppe (MPEPE) is rapidly becoming a favored choice among cryptocurrency enthusiasts, particularly those who have seen remarkable returns with Shiba Inu (SHIB). The appeal of Mpeppe (MPEPE) lies in its unique combination of meme culture and practical applications. While Shiba Inu (SHIB) has thrived on its community engagement and meme appeal, Mpeppe (MPEPE) enhances this model by integrating elements of sports betting and fan engagement platforms. This innovative approach not only captures the interest of existing Shiba Inu (SHIB) investors but also attracts new participants eager for a diversified and rewarding investment opportunity.

Julian Assange, the controversial founder of WikiLeaks, has obtained freedom, his release made headlines around the world, but what captured the media’s attention was a surprising and unexpected gesture: an anonymous bitcoin donor covered the cost of $520,000 for the private jet that transported Assange to a safe location.

The detention of Assange and the Bitcoin donor

Assange was arrested in 2019 at the Ecuadorian embassy in London, where he had obtained asylum for seven years to avoid extradition to the United States. The charges against him include the publication of classified documents concerning US military and diplomatic operations, raising issues about press freedom and human rights. During his detention, Assange faced several legal challenges and declining health, which worried his supporters worldwide.

After Assange’s release on bail, the need for safe and rapid transport to a secret location emerged. In this context, an anonymous benefactor offered a significant amount in bitcoin to charter a private jet. The amount, equivalent to 520,000 dollars, was transferred securely and discreetly, ensuring Assange a smooth journey.

Bitcoin, a cryptocurrency known for its decentralized and anonymous nature, played a crucial role in this event. The ability to make transactions without revealing the sender’s identity allowed the donor to support Assange without exposing themselves to possible repercussions. This episode highlighted once again the importance of cryptocurrencies in modern society, especially for those who seek to operate outside the control of traditional financial institutions.

The reactions of the public and the ethical implications

The news of the altruistic gesture has sparked mixed reactions. On one hand, supporters of Assange have celebrated the act as a symbol of solidarity and support towards a man they consider a champion of truth and transparency. On the other hand, detractors of Assange have criticized the gesture, seeing it as yet another demonstration of the influence and power of cryptocurrencies in supporting controversial activities.

This episode also raises important legal and ethical issues. The anonymous donation of such a large sum in bitcoin has raised concerns about the possible use of cryptocurrencies to evade financial regulations and support potentially harmful causes. At the same time, it highlights the growing tension between individual privacy and the need for transparency in global financial transactions.

Now that Assange is free on bail, his future remains uncertain. The generous gesture of the anonymous donor has undoubtedly offered Assange some respite in this tumultuous period, but the legal battle is far from over.

Conclusions

The anonymous payment of 520,000 dollars in bitcoin for Julian Assange’s private jet represents a significant and symbolic event in the global landscape of cryptocurrencies and justice. 

This episode not only highlights the importance of cryptocurrencies in the modern world, but also raises profound questions about the ethical and legal implications of anonymous transactions. While the world watches the case of Assange closely, this altruistic gesture will remain in the collective memory as an example of the complexity and contradictions of our time.

Brad Garlinghouse, CEO di Ripple, has sparked a political and financial controversy with his recent statements regarding Biden and Gary Gensler, the chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) of the United States.

In an exclusive interview with a major financial network, Garlinghouse harshly criticized Gensler’s policies and actions, suggesting that they could have negative consequences for the Biden administration. His words immediately sparked a heated debate both within and outside the financial community.

Why according to the CEO of Ripple Biden will lose the elections?

According to Garlinghouse, the decisions made by Gensler could profoundly influence the investment climate in the United States, with potential repercussions on the cryptocurrency market and the financial sector as a whole.

His concerns have not gone unnoticed, with many industry experts expressing similar fears regarding the possible implications of the regulations proposed by the SEC. Garlinghouse says that overly strict regulation pushes companies and investors towards more welcoming jurisdictions.

However, Garlinghouse’s opinions have also sparked mixed reactions. Some critics believe that his remarks may be motivated by personal interests and the desire to protect Ripple’s interests, particularly in relation to the ongoing legal disputes the company has faced with the SEC. Others believe that his concerns are legitimate, highlighting the need to find a balance between technological innovation and investor protection.

Furthermore, Garlinghouse’s intervention took place in an already tense political context, with the Biden administration under pressure to address a series of economic and social challenges. His words highlighted the divisions within the US financial community regarding the role of regulation in promoting or restricting economic growth and innovation.

The context of Gensler

Gary Gensler, former economics professor at MIT and known for his strict positions on financial regulation, has taken the helm of the SEC with the declared goal of strengthening transparency and security in financial markets. His actions have already had a significant impact, with the SEC intensifying surveillance on cryptocurrencies and digital securities offerings, raising concerns among innovators in the sector.

Garlinghouse has expressed concerns that Gensler’s hard line could undermine the efforts of U.S. companies in the field of blockchain and cryptocurrencies.

The entire matter highlights a fundamental dilemma for the Biden administration: how to balance the need for regulation to protect investors and ensure financial stability, without stifling innovation and economic growth? It is a question that continues to divide opinions and fuel public debate.

Conclusions

While experts discuss the possible implications of Gensler’s policies and the responses of the financial community, one thing is clear: the decisions made by the SEC will have lasting consequences not only for the cryptocurrency sector but also for the economy as a whole. The challenge for the Biden administration will be to navigate these turbulent waters, finding a balance that supports technological innovation without compromising financial security and investor confidence.

In conclusion, while Brad Garlinghouse has raised important issues regarding Gary Gensler’s policies, it remains to be seen how the SEC will address the upcoming challenges and what the impact will be on the global financial landscape.

Sealana’s highly successful presale is now in the books, having raised over $6 million in a few short weeks. 

According to its X account, the new meme coin is set to go live on Solana DEXs on July 2nd at 1 PM UTC. The Sealana airdrop will commence immediately following the IEO, with presale buyers receiving their SEAL tokens in the subsequent hours. 

While the Sealana ICO may have ended, the hype and FOMO for the meme coin only continue to rise. Its developer team appears to have acknowledged this pent-up demand and has offered investors one last chance to buy SEAL early. 

The #Presale has ended! The #Airdrop will commence on Tuesday, July 2nd at 1 PM UTC!

Don't worry you can still buy $SEAL before the airdrop begins! #Sealana is more excited than a fat guy at McDonalds to whale $SEAL into your wallets! More info comin’ soon! pic.twitter.com/9Mafi9u060

— Sealana (@Sealana_Token) June 25, 2024

This means that prospective buyers still have 6 days to qualify for the Sealana airdrop and buy the meme coin at its discounted price of $0.022. 

How To Qualify For The Sealana Airdrop?

Investors who missed out presale window now unexpectedly have 6 more days to qualify for the SEAL airdrop before it commences on July 2nd. 

Investors have two alternatives to buy the new meme coin before its IEO. 

Firstly, they could visit the Sealana website and use the over-the-counter widget. This method allows for slightly more flexibility, considering investors can swap either SOL, BNB, ETH or USDT to buy SEAL. They could also choose to use a bank card. 

This method only requires investors to have a Web3 wallet, compatible with the chain of their choice. For instance, buyers using ETH or BNB can use the Coinbase Wallet, MetaMask, etc. while SOL buyers will need to have Phantom or Solflare. 

However, there is a second, much simpler method for investors to qualify for the Sealana airdrop. They can simply send SOL tokens to the Sealana project wallet and then wait for the airdrop to commence. The wallet address is 3LeVizuW3YoCnjfMfuQ22rSFQLDLdo9jXLKjyqfBU3w5.

Either way, buyers will receive their SEAL tokens after the IEO, which is scheduled for July 2nd at 1 PM UTC.

Investors are advised to follow the Sealana X and Telegram accounts and keep up with the latest updates. 

However, be careful of the scam accounts that have cropped up due to Sealana’s popularity. Similarly, make sure to avoid the copycat tokens imitating Sealana that are already live on exchanges. 

Investors should preferably use the token address that will be made available on Sealana’s social media accounts after the IEO. 

What Experts Are Saying About This New Meme Coin?

As previously mentioned, deep-pocketed investors are bullish on Sealana and are expecting significant growth in its value immediately after its launch. This isn’t entirely unexpected either. 

Smart money traders know the upside potential of a meme coin with a quality mascot that can make investors laugh. All big meme coins – Dogecoin, Pepe, Dogwifhat – have become successful due to the popularity of their respective icons. 

Sealana’s comical mascot – a chubby and patriotic seal – has also created a massive fan following for itself. Indeed, its X account and Telegram have nearly 13k and 22k followers respectively. 

Its theatrics – which include sneaking into Area 51, smoking “green herbal joints” with Joe Rogan and heckling Connor McGregor – have made Sealana a fan favourite. 

Curiosity got the best of #Sealana Using his Navy $SEAL training, he sneaked into #Area51 and got captured by some Aliens! Seems like they’re also into Lambos, Massive Gains just maybe not the Freedom bit!

Furthermore, SEAL is going live on exchanges on the same day as the spot Ethereum ETFs are expected to start trading. The ETFs are expected to cause euphoria in the market, which could provide a massive boost to new meme coins such as Sealana. 

As a result, YouTube trading experts such as Martin Iyooh believe that Sealana could potentially 10x in the days following its IEO. 

At this stage, the possibility of a marginal pullback cannot be denied as some early presale buyers could take profits. 

However, several analysts such as Crypto Boy believe that SEAL would remain an excellent long-term investment and could potentially even deliver up to 100x returns.

The cryptocurrency sector of the European Union is on the brink of a significant change with the introduction of the new MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) rules, which will become partially applicable at the end of this month. This legislation is intended to provide a clear regulatory framework for crypto-assets, including critical aspects such as KYC (Know Your Customer) and AML (Anti-Money Laundering) requirements.

The meaning of the MiCa regulation in the European Union (EU)

The MiCA is formulated with the intent to standardize the regulation of crypto-assets across the EU, eliminating legislative disparities between various Member States and ensuring a coordinated approach to market supervision. The regulations cover a wide range of aspects, from licensing to operational management, with the aim of increasing transparency, promoting market integrity, and protecting consumers.

The framework imposes rigorous controls on the governance and operations of stablecoin, crypto-assets that seek to maintain a stable value by tying themselves to reserves of traditional currencies or other assets. These rules include requirements for reserve coverage, the frequency of audits, and the disclosure of information, with the aim of mitigating financial risks and ensuring greater stability.

The prescriptive approach of MiCA on stablecoins is raising concerns among industry operators. Cryptocurrency analyst Jean-Marc Bonnefous commented: “The MiCA regulation could pose significant challenges for stablecoins operating in the EU, negatively affecting their appeal as a stable alternative to more volatile cryptocurrencies.” The concerns stem from the potential increase in operational costs and the administrative complexity required to comply with the new rules.

Furthermore, the restrictions on who can issue stablecoin and the strict requirements for reserves could limit the number of operators able to compete effectively in the market. This could reduce diversity and innovation in the sector, consolidating the market into the hands of a few large players who can afford to navigate the complex regulatory environment.

Market reactions and adaptation strategies

Many industry operators are already adapting their strategies in response to the new regulatory framework. Some are exploring partnerships with traditional financial institutions, while others are investing in advanced compliance technologies to efficiently manage regulatory demands. “It is essential for us to remain agile and innovative, while complying with the new requirements,” stated Alice Martin, CEO of a popular cryptocurrency exchange platform.

The response of consumers to the new rules is yet to be seen, but it is likely that the increased security and transparency will attract new investors to the cryptocurrency market, partially offsetting the anticipated negative impacts. Additionally, a clear regulatory environment could increase the confidence of institutions, potentially leading to a greater flow of capital into the sector.

Conclusions

In conclusion, the introduction of the MiCA regulatory framework represents a decisive step towards greater regulation and stability in the cryptocurrency market in Europe. Despite the initial challenges and concerns expressed by some industry operators, the rules could attract a greater number of institutional investors, increasing the legitimacy and security of the entire ecosystem.

The key to long-term success will be the adaptability of market participants and their ability to navigate effectively in the new regulatory environment, ensuring that innovation continues to thrive under a clear and coherent regulatory regime
