What is Fungibility?
An asset is considered fungible when its units are interchangeable with one another, meaning they are indistinguishable. In other words, an asset class is fungible when each unit of the asset has the same validity and market value. For example, a pound of pure gold is equal to any other pound of pure gold, regardless of the shape. Other examples of fungible asset classes may include commodities, fiat currencies, bonds, precious metals, and cryptocurrencies.
However, an equal exchange of a fungible asset does not necessarily mean exchanging of two identical units. As long as the transaction happens between instruments of the same kind and that share the same functionality, it can be considered as an equal exchange. For instance, a five-dollar bill can be exchanged with five one-dollar bills, but they have the same validity. In this example, the US dollar is the fungible asset, while the bills merely represent their underlying value.
In general, most cryptocurrencies are considered fungible assets. For example, we may consider Bitcoin fungible because each unit of BTC is equivalent to any other unit, meaning they have the same quality and functionality. So it doesn’t really matter in which block the coins were issued (mined), all Bitcoin units are part of the same blockchain and have the same functionality. Note that if someone forks the blockchain and create a new Bitcoin, those coins won’t be considered original as they would be part of another network.
It has been pointed out that due to the inherent traceability of BTC and similar cryptocurrencies, some coins might be less desirable than others - especially if they have been previously used in dubious or illicit activities. This means that some merchants or service provides may deny receiving Bitcoins as payments if they believe those particular coins were used by criminals in the past.
Unlike some tend to believe, however, this fact doesn’t remove Bitcoin’s property of fungibility. Traceability and fungibility are two different things and, despite their transactional history, each Bitcoin is still the same in terms of quality, technology, and functionality. Similarly, the US dollar is still a fungible asset, although criminals have been using it for illicit activities for many decades.

Key features of TON
1. Scalability
TON is designed to be highly scalable. It can handle millions of transactions per second through a sharding mechanism that allows the network to split into smaller, interconnected blockchains called "shards." Each shard can process transactions independently, which significantly increases the overall capacity of the network.

2. Interoperability
TON is designed to be interoperable with other blockchains and DApps. It can easily integrate with other blockchain networks and allow for the seamless transfer of assets and data between them. This feature is crucial for creating a connected and decentralized web where different blockchain networks can work together.

3. Fast transactions
TON's architecture is optimized for speed. It uses a PoS consensus mechanism, which is faster and more energy-efficient than the Proof of Work (PoW) system used by Bitcoin. This means that transactions on the TON network are processed almost instantly, making it suitable for everyday use, such as payments, microtransactions, and other financial activities.

4. Decentralization
TON is a decentralized network, meaning that it is not controlled by any single entity or organization. Instead, it is governed by its community of users and developers. This decentralization makes TON more resistant to potential attacks and ensures that the network remains open and accessible to everyone.

#BTC☀
Bitcoin has recently broken below the horizontal demand zone of a descending triangle pattern, signaling a potential shift in market sentiment. It is currently in the process of retesting the lower boundary of the triangle.

The Ichimoku Cloud reinforces this bearish outlook, with its indicators showing increased downward momentum. If the retest of the triangle's boundary confirms this bearish bias, we could see a continuation of the decline, potentially leading to a significant drop in price.

Conversely, if Bitcoin fails to sustain below this level during the retest, it may enter a phase of consolidation within the descending triangle.

First of all I bought starknet $STRK at a price of 1.83$ per and now STRK at 2.5$. What next! Should I sell it or hold for next 3.5-4-5$. what's my expectation from starknet and why. Today let's discuss about starknet and the possiblity of future performance of starknet.What is starknet:Starknet is a permissionless, Validity-Rollup, also known as a zero-knowledge rollup (ZK rollup) for Ethereum. It operates as a Layer 2 (L2) blockchain, enabling any dApp to achieve massive scale for its computation without compromising on Ethereum’s composability and security.Starknet aims to achieves secure low cost transactions and high performance by using the STARK cryptographic proof system. Starknet contracts and the Starknet OS are written in Cairo, a custom-built and specialized programming language.One of the best L2 ranked in 5 on search.What's incoming:Reduced L1 cost with EIP-4844Ethereum EIP-4844Reduced costs for data availablity on L1Transactions fee market Accelerated transaction finality Reduced transaction costs via volition modeFuture versionStarknet roadmap also clear and very impressive. This is great for L2 scalability. Great development and future plan. Starknet listed with all top exchange including binance, bybit, KuCoin. You can buy it from anywhere.Previously we watched the performance of L2 in market. We hope we will a very good market movement of starknet. I expect at least 5$ in short/mid term, 10-15$ in Long term. And yes! Starknet the next best gem in binance.
