Multi-chain protocols and smart contract services
As the number 1 platform in the industry for new launches, 100s of new companies approach our research team every month. We reject over 95% of these as we aim to only have viable long-term tokens on our Launchpad. However, we are leaving a lot of value on the table by not servicing 95% of our future client deal flow. We, therefore, had to find a solution on how to effectively monetize our extremely full sales funnels and focused on how to expand DAO Maker from being able to work with 1% efficiently to working with 100% without damaging our reputation. We came up with three core products that we will present throughout this campaign.

Governance, Voted SHO & Guaranteed Allocations (Fusion System)
Automation & Guaranteed Allocation System - DAO Makers Launchpad process is quite complicated and difficult to understand for newcomers and even existing holders. This had to stop. We needed to come up with a new elegant system that makes everything 5x simpler and that's exactly what we did. — Proud to present the Fusion System. — The fusion system reduces complexity and onboarding time for our users by 90%. Currently, users have to KYC, register, wait, get an email, check the raffle spreadsheet and then stress out for FCFS, and then contribute, this will be replaced with: KYC, Contribute, and win. When contributions open users will get a notification via email automatically and contribute right away. The maximum personal allocation that users can contribute is calculated based on the user’s staked DAO. Maximum Contribution Formula: (Total Allocation for the Sale / Average Total DAO Staked for Sales) * 4 = Allocation Per DAO Power (4 = 4x oversubscription) Example: A user stakes 6430 DAO and the total raise of the sale is 600,000 6430 DAO = Tier 2 so his DAO Power is 7,073 (10% bonus) 600,000 /25,000,000 * 4 = 0.096 * 7,073 = $679 His personal maximum allocation will therefore be $679 — Under Subscription:. — If not enough people deposit BUSD before the end of the voting period then the smart contract automatically returns everybody’s funds back to their wallets after 48 hours. &mda...

According to archived records, 4,833 decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) treasuries held $10.8 billion on April 15, 2022. Over the course of 309 days, by February 19, 2023, the treasuries dwindled to $8.8 billion. However, during the past 90 days, there has been a significant surge, with the funds held by DAO treasuries increasing by 144% to the current value of $21.5 billion.
Decentralized Autonomous Organizations Witness Explosive Growth in 3 Months
Following the failure of the first decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) in 2016, the concept of DAOs experienced substantial growth. As of May 19, 2023, deepdao.io, a web portal dedicated to the analysis and information surrounding these organizations, has documented approximately 12,763 DAOs. In October 2022, Bitcoin.com News reported on the financial assets held by DAO treasuries, which amounted to a total value of $9.8 billion. Notably, the largest treasury belonged to Uniswap, boasting a stash of $2.8 billion.
At that time, Bitdao held a cache of $1.3 billion in assets, closely following Uniswap's DAO treasury. However, the subsequent months witnessed a decline, with the funds held by DAO treasuries plunging to a low of $8.8 billion by February 2023. Fast forward to today, May 19, 2023, and the scenario has transformed dramatically. The funds held by DAO treasuries have surged to $21.5 billion. Notably, Bitdao's treasury now holds the third position, while Uniswap's treasury secures the fourth spot among the ...

|  | The Elon Musk Effect: Cult DAO (CULT) Spikes 70% Following Tesla's CEO T...
CULT - the native token of the blockchain project Cult DAO - soared by over 70% shortly after Elon Musk dropped a mysterious tweet containing the same name.
The CEO of Twitter, Tesla, and SpaceX is known as one of the most influential individuals in the world of crypto. His previous comments have caused price swings in other digital assets in the past few years, including Dogecoin (DOGE), Floki Inu (FLOKI), and others.
Musk has proven once again that even a short tweet posted by him could trigger a significant price increase of a certain token. His most recent post on the social media platform contained the words 'cult' and 'culture.'
Despite not revealing what stands behind that phrase, Twitter's CEO caused a price spike of CULT (the native token of Cult DAO), which spiked by more than 70% in a matter of hours.
CULT price, Source: CoinGecko
Musk's previous influence in the crypto market is well-known and typically involves his favorite memecoin Dogecoin, as well as Floki Inu
DOGE's valuation has gone north multiple times following announcements by the South African billionaire. Most recently, he changed Twitter's main logo into a picture of the infamous 'Doge' meme Twitter's main logo, propelling a 25% price increase for the asset.
FLOKI has also soared due to Musk's interactions. The entrepreneur uploaded a sarcastic photo on Twitter in February, depicting his dog as the new boss of the social media giant.
Considering that the pet's name is Floki, it is no wonder ...
|  | DeFi Platform JustLend DAO Unveils Staked TRX and Energy Rental Features
[PRESS RELEASE - Singapore, Singapore, April 19th, 2023]
JustLend DAO has announced the launch of two new features – 'Staked TRX' and 'Energy Rental,” aimed at providing users with more flexible and streamlined options while reducing energy rental costs. This major upgrade, released on April 16, expands the reach of JustLend DAO’s capability to multiply users' benefits by putting their assets into active use.
STAKED TRX
The new 'Staked TRX' feature is based on Stake 2.0 and allows users to earn high yields by staking TRX then receiving sTRX tokens. With 'Staked TRX,' the platform automatically earns yields for users via (a) voting rewards as the platform automatically votes for Super Representatives with their staked TRX and (b) renting out the Energy obtained by staking, resulting in higher yields and a much simpler staking process. As voting rewards and rents accrue, the exchange rate of TRX to sTRX will rise accordingly, thus increasing total yields.
ENERGY RENTAL
The new 'Energy Rental' feature provides a more cost-effective alternative to obtaining Energy by staking or burning Energy. Users can rent Energy or end their rental at any time, and the new process is less complicated and less expensive.
ADVANCED DECENTRALIZATION
TRON Stake 2.0 makes resource and voting management remarkably more flexible than its predecessor, Stake 1.0. JustLend DAO, the first TRON-based decentralized financial platform, now allows users to earn yields through supplied assets...
|  | Stablecoins Worth $600k From 2021 DAO Maker Hack Sent Via Tornado Cash
Tornado Cash has, once again, found itself as the nexus of pilfered funds from a DeFi protocol.
An Ethereum wallet address associated with the exploiter of the DAO Maker breach from 2021 sent $600,000 worth of DAI stablecoin through the controversial coin mixer.
According to the blockchain security firm, PeckShield, the wallet had been dormant for more than 200 days.
The movement was detected nearly seven months after another wallet linked with the exploiter transferred $500,000 worth of DAI using Tornado Cash.
For the uninitiated, DAO Maker, a fundraising platform for crypto projects (no relation to the more widely known MakerDAO), was exploited in August 2021, draining over $7 million.
The attacker was able to access the platform's balance by taking advantage of a bug in DAO Maker's contract affecting over 5,000 accounts holding USDC.
Hacks have continued to wreak havoc in the decentralized finance space. Malicious entities targeted these protocols as the crypto market went through another bull run in 2021.
DeFi protocols went on to become by far the biggest victims of hacks, accounting for over 82% of all digital assets stolen by hackers the following year.
Throughout 2022, DeFi protocols recorded a loss of $3.1 billion, up from 73.3% in 2021.
The latest development comes in the backdrop of an exploit on the popular centralized crypto exchange Bitrue. which reported a loss of $23 million worth of digital assets in the process.

|  | DeFi Could Face Challenges Due to SEC's Crackdown on Crypto Staking: Lid...
Jacob Blish, the head of business development at Lido DAO, the decentralized autonomous organization behind the largest liquid staking protocol, believes the recent SEC crackdown on crypto staking services could cause new challenges for decentralized finance (DeFi).
According to a Bloomberg report, Blish opined that the state of crypto staking in the U.S. depends on the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) final resolution.
SEC Crackdown on Staking Could Affect DeFi
Blish disclosed that service providers in the U.S. are facing new challenges due to the SEC's recent actions against crypto staking.
Recall that the SEC recently probed and sued major American crypto exchange Kraken for offering staking services to U.S. investors. In a settlement deal with the regulator, Kraken agreed to pay a civil penalty of $30 million and immediately shut down its staking platform in the U.S.
Commenting on the SEC's action, Blish opined that although the move could benefit on-chain liquid staking providers, the final resolution could bring up new challenges for DeFi.
'I have been getting a lot more questions about 'does this impact Lido, what are your thoughts on this? I personally think this is a net benefit for on-chain permissionless liquid staking or staking providers, but it really depends on what the final resolution is,' he said.
'A Different Problem'
Furthermore, the Lido DAO executive insisted that there would be a different problem if U.S. regulators decided that no ind...

|  | FLOKI Soars 15% After DAO Proposal to Burn $55M in Floki Inu Tokens
Floki Inu developers contemplate burning nearly 5 trillion FLOKI tokens (worth almost $55 million) to reduce the tax applied on each transaction.
FLOKI's price reacted positively, surging 15% in a few hours.
The team behind the popular memecoin Floki Inu might burn its bridge tokens (4.97 trillion assets) and thus shrink the tax levied on each transaction to 0.3%. The maximum circulating supply of FLOKI will remain at 10 trillion assets even if the effort gets completed.
'We understand that the decision to burn the bridge tokens is a very significant (and permanent!) decision and the ETH chain has a higher percentage of circulating supply, so we would be happy to help large holders who want to bridge over to BSC do so manually before the burn,' the developers stated.
The proposal further displayed protection risks related to cross-chain bridges. Burning some of the tokens could reduce the chance of a potential 'catastrophic impact,' the team added:
'In Floki's case, an exploit on our main cross-chain bridge would have a catastrophic impact on the project since this bridge currently holds 55.7% of what FLOKI's total circulating supply should be. This is a lot of tokens, and that's more than enough to drain the project's liquidity pools and essentially destroy the project if exploited.
The overwhelming majority of the voters have declared their support of the initiative.
The native token of the project - FLOKI - spiked by almost 15% shortly after the plan was aired. C...
|  | SSV Network DAO Launches $50 Million Ecosystem Fund
Open source and decentralized protocol ssv.network DAO has launched a $50 million Ecosystem Fund dedicated to supporting the development of Distributed Validator Technology ('DVT') based applications.
According to a press release shared with CryptoPotato, the project secured the funds from various industry investors, including DCG, OKX, HashKey, NGC, Everstake, HackVC, GSR, Chorus.One SevenX, and 1kx.
ssv.network noted that the fund is the first to be dedicated solely to DVT use cases, adding that its primary purpose is to 'solidify DVT as critical Ethereum infrastructure.'
What is DVT?
DVT is one of the key developments in Ethereum's roadmap. DVT is an infrastructure primitive that enables validators' key sharing between non-trusting parties on the Ethereum network. The technology relies on a network of nodes that operate under consensus to help generate ETH rewards for stakers.
For larger validators, DVT provides high availability and reduces infrastructure costs while it ensures a comparable level of protection that a larger validator would have for smaller validators.
Commenting on the development, Alon Muroch, Core Contributor at ssv.network, said:
'DVT's aim is to distribute Ethereum's security by offering quick and easy access to an open-source, public good which will completely change the way staking is operated today.'
Muroch added that over 20 companies are already building on top of ssv.network's DVT protocol, and that number is expected to increase with the laun...
|  | Lido DAO (LDO) Token Outperforms Market With 62% Weekly Gains
The crypto market is still highly unpredictable and volatile in January 2023. The market generally recorded a 0.3% decrease in the last 24 hours. But as most of the assets falter, some tokens record exponential gains. LDO, the governance token of the Lido DAO network, has increased in value in the past week. The token is up by 62.83% in weekly gains and currently trading at $1.99, a 1.31% increase in 24 hours.
The Lido DAO project is a staking platform where users can stake their ETH tokens. The platform also offers DeFi lending services and requires no minimum deposits. With different financial services and the flexibility of its platform, this upsurge shows increased adoption by users for a variety of purposes.
Despite the uncertain times in the crypto space Lido DAO (LDO) has continued to perform well since the turn of the year. Some factors are behind this recent resurgence and will influence how long the bullish momentum will last.
Why Is Lido DAO (LIDO) On The Rise? Some parameters are responsible for the price surge in Lido DAO. A Twitter user states that the Lido finance native token has soared nearly 60% in the last week. The user attributed this to Ethereum's upcoming Shanghai fork. This update will enable users to withdraw their staked ETH tokens.
Secondly, BitForex announced the listing of LDO on the exchange. This listing has increased the project's scope and is partly responsible for the price increase noted in the token.
However, Twitt...
|  | Lido DAO Surges By More Than 57% in Just A Week – More Gains Up Ah...
Lido DAO (LDO), the native cryptocurrency of Lido Finance, significantly increased its total market capitalization which now stands at $1.25 billion.
This no longer comes as a surprise as the crypto asset is in the midst of an incredible run that enabled it to post double-digit gains on its intraday, weekly, bi-weekly and monthly charts.
At press time, according to data from Coingecko, LDO is changing hands at $1.51, increasing its value by 13% during the last 24 hours.
Over the previous seven days, the digital token went up by 56.5% while also posting a bi-weekly gain of 60% and monthly increase of 50%.
Already in the middle of an impressive showing, some analysts believe that Lido DAO still has room for improvement, thanks to a new upcoming ETH upgrade.
Lido Expected To Benefit From ETH Shanghai Upgrade
According to a recently released analysis, Lido Finance, at the time of this writing, is responsible for nearly 30% of all staked ETH tokens, making it the largest liquid staking platform for Ethereum right now.
It has been noted that the demand for the platform increased dramatically after Ethereum switched from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake mechanism back in 2022.
Moreover, the analysis stated that the blockchain’s upcoming Shanghai fork will enable users to withdraw their staked ETH tokens which, in turn, is expected to encourage more people to stake through Lido Finance. This will then increase the demand for the project’s native token.
Some experts beli...
|  | Weekend Watch: Lido DAO Soars to 2-Month High, BTC Touched $17K
After failing to challenge $17,000 for several straight days, bitcoin finally touched that level, marking a multi-week high.
The altcoins also turned green on Saturday, with impressive gains from Ethereum Classic and Lido DAO.
Bitcoin Touches $17K
The end of 2022 was quite calm for the primary cryptocurrency, and the first day of the new year didn't bring any more excitement either, as it remained at around $16,500. The situation started to change on Monday with a minor push from the bulls to $16,700.
BTC tried to come closer to $17,000 in the next few days but ultimately failed to tap that line. The latest rejection from yesterday even pushed the asset south by a few hundred dollars.
However, bitcoin indeed touched $17,000 a few hours ago, doing so for the first time since December 20. It has lost some ground as of now and stands just under it, but it's still around 1% up on the day.
Its market capitalization has increased to north of $325 billion, but its dominance over the alts is back down to 39.6%.

LDO, ETC on the Run
CryptoPotato reported earlier this week when Lido DAO became a leader in terms of Total Value Locked, surpassing MakerDAO. Although the latter reclaimed its first position, the former's native cryptocurrency has continued to rise higher.
The latest push came earlier today, as LDO skyrocketed by double digits and reached $1.5. This became its highest price tag in about two months.
Ethereum Classic is another notable performer on a...

About SUPER SAPIENSS
'SUPER SAPIENSS' is an unprecedented entertainment project that brings together three directors (Yukihiko Tsutsumi, Katsuyuki Motohiro, and Yuichi Sato) who have led the Japanese entertainment and film industry, and producer Takeshi Moriya as board members to create the original story and visualize it.

|  | Hacker Siphons Close to $300K in OHM Tokens From the Olympus DAO
On Friday, October 21, a malicious entity siphoned 30,437 OHM tokens from the Olympus DAO after finding a loophole in the rebase project’s smart contract. Following the exploit, the blockchain security and data analytics company, Peckshield, detailed the hackers stole close to $300K in OHM tokens.
Hacker Exploits Smart Contract's 'BondFixedExpiryTeller' Parameter, $292,000 in OHM Tokens Stolen
After rising to colossal values at the end of 2021, the rebase token economy has collapsed in value, after a myriad of controversies and issues. In mid-January 2022, the top rebase tokens by market capitalization had a market valuation of around $4.99 billion and today, the rebase token economy is down 89.49% to $524 million.
On October 21, the top rebase token project by market valuation, Olympus, suffered from a hack that saw roughly $292K in OHM tokens stolen. On Friday, blockchain security firm Peckshield detailed that the hacker found a loophole via the project’s smart contract “BondFixedExpiryTeller' parameter.
“It seems the related Olympus DAO's BondFixedExpiryTeller contract has a redeem() function that does not properly validate the input, resulting in [a] ~$292K loss,” Peckshield detailed on Friday. The Web3 and blockchain security auditor Supremacy Inc. confirmed that the attacker leveraged an “arbitrary external call vulnerability” to siphon the 30,437 OHM tokens from the DAO.
The developers behind the Olympus rebase token proje...
|  | Eunoia – a Knowledge Community DAO Platform for Professionals
PRESS RELEASE. DemandCircle is delighted to announce the official launch of Eunoia, Web 3.0’s very own decentralized business knowledge platform. With the goal of bringing industry professionals together in expertise-centric communities, Eunoia incentivises meaningful participation with rewards in the platform’s native token. Eunoia's end goal is to become a DAO (decentralized autonomous organization) whereby the community members can guide the evolution of the platform towards a native web3.0 knowledge sharing community for business professionals.
Web 3.0 and the Eunoia’s Vision
Inclusion, open participation, and permissionless development form the foundations of decentralized applications and Eunoia is a step towards bringing those values to the business knowledge domain.
Sharing information is an essential part of the human experience, and technology has facilitated our ability to rapidly increase the rate at which we can discuss and implement ideas. However, encouraging consistent, thought-provoking discourse remains a challenge.
Existing centralized platforms can be unfocused, and the user experience comes second to the company’s profit. With Web 3.0’s promise of self-governance and users owning their own data, this engagement and development can now be incentivized with tokenomics. If one can immediately be rewarded for sharing knowledge that the community wants to acquire, the rate of knowledge sharing stands to increase significantly, cre...
|  | Maker DAO Trends Higher As 50 EMA Holds As Support, Can The Price Breach...
MKR's price shows strength as the price breaks out of a downtrend with good volume with eyes set on $1,200.
MKR bounced from a low of $600 as the price rallied to a high of $1,000, preparing for a rally as the price eyes $1,200 key resistance. The price of MKR continues to trade above 50 Exponential Moving Average (EMA) on the daily timeframe.
The price actions shown by Bitcoin (BTC) have affected most altcoins negatively as some have lost their key support, but Maker Dao (MKR) continues to show immersed strength as price breaks out of a long downtrend movement. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) news released recently had a great deal of effect on the crypto market as the price of BTC declined to a low of $18,200 before a bounce to $19,300, with many altcoins like Trust Wallet Token showing bullish strength regardless.

LDO price shows strength for the first time after post-merge. LDO bounces from the downtrend, hoping to end its bearish run as the price eyes a possible breakout from the downtrend line.
The price of LDO shows bullish signs as price trades below 50 and 200 Exponential Moving Averages (EMA) with good volume.
The price of Lido DAO (LDO) has been one of the best performances before the 'Ethereum Merge,' outperforming the market as the price rallied to an all-time high of $3 against tether (USDT). Although the crypto market faced a new drawback as Bitcoin (BTC) price dropped from a region of $19,000 to $18,100 as the Consumer Price Index (CPI) suggests an increase in inflation affecting the price of BTC negatively with altcoins affected, with recovery from BTC altcoins like Lido DAO showed some strength as the aim to begin a rally. (Data from Binance)
Lido DAO (LDO) Price Analysis On The Weekly Chart
Although the crypto market experienced a sharp decline due to the CPI news, the market appeared to be manipulated as Bitcoin's (BTC) price dropped from $19,200 to $18,200 in hours. The market quickly recovered as most altcoins began to show strength, with LDO looking to breakout of its downtrend that has made the price become crippled to rally.
With the current rise in the value of Bitcoin Dominance (BTC.D) after a long while, it is still unclear how the current price bounce after the price decline will be sustained. With BTC.D rising, most altcoins will suffer an inc...
|  | Despite the Crypto Market Downturn, DAO Treasuries Grew by $700 Million ...
Since January 2022, the entire crypto economy has shed $1.36 trillion in value, as the market capitalization dropped from $2.34 trillion to today's $979 billion. While the crypto economy is down in value, trade volumes are lower, and the value locked in decentralized finance (defi) has shed billions, treasuries held by decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs) have increased by 7.69% in value since January, as roughly $700 million was added to the projects' caches in eight months.DAO Treasuries Jump 7.6% Higher in USD Value, Since 2016 the Value Held by Decentralized Autonomous Organizations Grew by 6,025%
On June 10, 2022, the total amount of funds held by decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) treasuries reached the $10 billion range for the first time in history. While the crypto industry is dealing with lower prices and bearish sentiment, the value held by DAO treasuries has managed to weather the storm.
Presently, across 4,830 organizations, DAOs hold $9.8 billion, which is only $200 million less than the aggregate value held by DAOs 112 days ago. While it is $200 million less than it was three months ago, DAO treasury values have increased by $700 million since January, according to stats aggregated by deepdao.io.
On January 22, deepdao.io metrics recorded by archive.org indicate there were 4,227 organizations at that time, and collectively, $9.1 billion was held in DAO treasuries. With $9.8 billion today, that's a 7.69% increase in USD value held by DAO treas...

MKR trades below 50 and 200 EMA on the daily timeframe.
Price breaks out of a falling wedge with eyes set on key resistance of $800. The price looks strong on low and high timeframes. Maker DAO (MKR) price has had a rough time recently as price beaks out of falling wedge on the daily timeframe against tether (USDT). Despite being a major player in the crypto industry, the price of Maker DAO (MKR) has struggled to replicate its run to a high of $8,000. (Data from Binance)
Maker DAO (MKR) Price Analysis On The Weekly Chart
The price of MKR has had a fantastic run, with such movement from a low of $750 to a high of $8,000 in a matter of weeks, creating a sense of surrealism in the hearts of traders and major crypto players.
Despite such a run, the bear market has had an impact on MKR's price, which has fallen from $8,000 to $600, a drop of more than 70% from its all-time high.
The price of MKR rallied from its weekly low of $600 to a high of $1,100 before failing to break above that region to higher heights and falling to a low of $650.
MKR's price must break and close above $1,100 in order to have a better chance of trading higher. The price of MKR has formed a downtrend line, which is acting as resistance; flipping the area of $1,100, which is acting as weekly resistance, into support will signal a more relief bounce for the price of MKR.
If the price of MKR fails to break through this key resistance region, the price of MKR may retest the $600 support and demand ...

The Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has filed an enforcement action lawsuit against Ooki DAO, a crypto margin trading and lending platform for engaging in digital asset margin trading that only CFTC-registered Futures Commission Merchants (FCM) can perform.
Ooki DAO also failed to adhere to customer identification requirements prescribed under the Bank Secrecy Act, the commission further alleged in its lawsuit filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.
CFTC Files Charges Against Ooki DAO
“The CFTC seeks restitution, disgorgement, civil monetary penalties, trading and registration bans, and injunctions against further violations of the CEA and CFTC regulations, as charged,” the Commission said in a statement on Thursday.
The CFTC leveled the same charges against Ooki DAO's predecessor – bZeroX, and disclosed that hadhas struck a $250,000 settlement with bZeroX and its founders, Tom Bean and Kyle Kistner.
The agency accused Ooki of using its structure to circumvent regulatory oversight.
'A key bZeroX objective in transferring control of the bZx Protocol (now the Ooki Protocol) to the bZx DAO (now the Ooki DAO) was to attempt to render the bZx DAO, by its decentralized nature, enforcement-proof. Put simply, the bZx founders believed they had identified a way to violate the Act and Regulations, as well as other laws, without consequence.'
