No-coiner

This one is pretty straightforward. It's a term that is used to describe someone who does not invest in crypto or is pessimistic about digital assets. They usually believe that cryptocurrencies have no use cases and therefore have no holdings, no crypto tokens, and no coins. Hence the term 'no-coiner'.

Weak hands

Weak hands is a term used to describe someone who sells their crypto holdings at the first sign of a market correction. These investors are either not entirely convinced wi

One of the key features of cryptocurrencies is that they are open source. This means that aggregate user data, like the number of unique addresses or the volume of daily transactions, is freely available online. But cryptocurrencies are also designed to prioritise privacy, so breaking that data down to understand demographics, or use by country, is challenging, but not impossible. We’ll explain why that is, the common workarounds and summarise the best available figures on which countries have a

Traditional organisations are characterised by a leadership structure that is usually led by a selected few or even just a single person on top of the corporate governance mechanism. While there are benefits to this – quick decision-making processes, for instance – there are risks to allowing so much power in the hands of the few.

The concept of the decentralised autonomous organisation (DAO), popularised with the rise of blockchain technology, is touted as a solution to bad management structur

More than a third of the world’s population plays video games, with Statista estimating that the video game industry will be worth over $220 billion in 2023.

The thriving industry has been bullish for over a decade, with plenty of new areas experiencing new spurts of growth, including games based on blockchain technology.

Blockchain-based games or crypto games was already a familiar concept at least since 2016. But it wasn’t until 2021 that blockchain gaming gained momentum with so-called Play

What is virtual real estate?

Virtual real estate can be defined as intangible virtual properties that are made accessible for purchase and investment on the blockchain. Virtual property essentially refers to intangible objects that can be traded in the real world for fiat money or cryptocurrency.

For example, you may trade papers, high-ranking websites, and domain names.

When it comes specifically to virtual real estate, you can obtain plots of land in the metaverse with the purpose of develo

It is a fascinating time to be alive. So many young people are diving into the so-called metaverse to play video games, socialise and even date, while many others from earlier generations are struggling to even understand the concept of living online.

This knowledge gap – a result of digital technologies emerging at pace – forces us to keep on our toes. Those that can’t keep up, easily lose track of what is happening. That’s the thing with metaverse – many people still cannot understand its mea

Play-to-Earn model (P2E)

Most blockchain games these days incorporate the Play-to-Earn model as a novel and innovative method of gaming. The new model encompasses a totally different gameplay structure than that of traditional video games.

As the name suggests, the traditional Pay-to-Play gaming mode requires players to invest before they can start playing the game. For example, the popular video game Call of Duty required gamers to purchase licences or subscriptions. The Pay-to-Play model did

What is Web3?

In an earlier blogpost, we examined the evolution of the web and the emergence of Web3. Tim Berners-Lee, the Internet pioneer, coined the term world wide web to illustrate a global web of information and resources interconnected through hypertext links. Since then, the Internet has gone a long way.

In this guide, we discuss the third generation of the world wide web, its main perks and best examples. The concept coined by Berners-Lee was often used to describe what is now known a
