Announcement on WIN API update
Dear WIN community users: Recently, we updated #WIN API function on CoinMarketCap. As we noticed that #WIN data management and update speed were relatively slow because some of the API functions had not been upgraded. Please rest assured, the reason why circulating supply of #WIN seems to increase sharply is because the previous data has not been updated in time. After the API functions update, #WIN data on @CoinMarketCap and other platforms have been updated and synchronised in real-time. Thanks for your patience and understanding. CoinMarketCap, as a popular data source for the global digital currency price index, is also one of the most valuable crypto asset price tracking websites for WINkLink users.

“Six-Token Carnival Third AMA” with APENFT in the Poloniex’s Community
Here are the important contents captured from AMA with APENFT in the Poloniex Community on September 15, 2021: 1) What’s WINKLink (WIN)? What’s the role of WIN in the WINkLink ecosystem and on the platform itself? The first TRON ecosystem comprehensive oracle WINkLink fully integrates the real world with the blockchain space，provides reliable, unpredictable, and verifiable random numbers, and fully restores trust and improves user experience by tapping into data, events, and payment systems, etc. from the real world. The WINk team completed the acquisition of justlink.io on April 26, 2021and rebranded it as WINkLink. WIN is the governance token of the WINkLink oracle network. WIN, is the link and pricing tool between WINkLink linkage between different application scenarios and ecology, listed on Binance, KuCoin, Poloniex, Bithumb, HitBTC, WazirX, and many other well-known international exchanges. ==================== 2) Could you shed light on the advantages and features of WINkLink Oracle? Features that WINkLink has to offer as an oracle service: WINkLink uses smart contracts to pay oracle nodes, which then provide price feeds for the contracts. In this way, both decentralization and user engagement can be ensured. Second, WINkLink has chosen TRON MainNet to deploy its contacts. Supported by the fast transaction processing, high throughput, and stable block production on the TRON network, WINkLink will be immune to...

WINkLink, The First TRON Ecosystem Comprehensive Oracle
Linking the Real and the Virtual What is WINkLink? WINkLink, the first TRON ecosystem comprehensive oracle, fully integrates the real world with the blockchain space, will be able to provide reliable, unpredictable and verifiable random numbers, and fully restore trust and improve user experience by tapping into data, events, and payment systems etc. from the real world. About Oracles Smart contracts running on the blockchains are often unable to communicate directly with external systems. Today, we can solve this problem by introducing the WINkLink Oracle, which provides connectivity for smart contracts to the world off the blockchain. However, most current oracles are centralized services which brings the risk of a single point of failure for smart contracts, when it comes to using oracle services, making the decentralized nature of smart contracts meaningless. The WINkLink oracle project provides a bridge between smart contracts and external data “off the blockchain” with reliability and security. About WINkLink Depending on how you want to participate in the WINkLink ecosystem, you can choose from the following: ● Deployment of WINkLink contract ● Using the WINkLink Pricing Service in the DApp ● Learn more about the WINkLink implementation Details about deployment documentation/ pricing services/ architecture are available in the Help Center on winklink.org. — How to Use WINkLink Oracle?. — ●U...

The First TRON Ecosystem Comprehensive Oracle WINkLink Goes Live, Ushering Into a New Era of On and Offline Integration The WINk team recently announced that it has completed its acquisition of justlink.io. This move marks the launch of the first TRON ecosystem comprehensive oracle, which will be hosted on winklink.org. The deal gives a strong impetus to TRON-hosted projects and ushers TRON into a new era of on and offline integration. WINkLink oracle service fully integrates the real world with the blockchain space by feeding reliable, timely, transparent and tamper-proof data to any sophisticated blockchain-powered smart contracts. WIN, a TRON-based TRC20 token, will be the governance token of the WINkLink oracle network. Built on its extensive experience in blockchain gaming, the WINk team finds that blockchain-based decentralized games need secure and reliable random numbers. In traditional practice, random numbers are generated in a centralized manner, and their value is dependent on the physical state of a specific machine. Random numbers on blockchains need to be distributed, yet verifiable random functions can barely integrate with certainty-driven blockchains. It is not only a major issue for blockchain games but also an industry-wide crux that needs to be tackled for projects working with smart contract calling. With the team’s research efforts, in a few years, WINkLink oracle service will be able to provide reli...

 | Celsius Bankruptcy Struggles Coming to an End as Fahrenheit Clinches Win...
Fahrenheit LLC - a consortium of investors that includes the largest crypto exchange in the United States - has emerged as the winner in the court-approved auction process to acquire insolvent lender Celsius Network.
Fahrenheit will provide the capital, management team, and technology required to successfully set up and operate the new company. It is also required to pay a cash deposit of $10 million within three days to seal the deal.
Fahrenheit to Acquire Celsius Assets
Fahrenheit's consortium consists of US Bitcoin Corp, Proof Group Capital Management LLC, Ravi Kaza, former Algorand CEO Steven Kokinos, and Coinbase.
According to the court filing, the group will acquire Celsius' institutional loan portfolio, mining business, and alternative investments for the benefit of account holders. The new company will be spearheaded by a Board of Directors, a majority of which will be appointed by creditors.
The distribution of Celsius's liquid crypto to account holders, settlements with the Custody and Withhold groups, as well as managing Celsius' illiquid assets by the new company have been outlined as the crux of the agreement.
The deal also requires the new company to receive $500 million in liquid cryptocurrency, which may be reduced to $450 million in the event of secondary market purchases. Fahrenheit group's US Bitcoin Corp will be in charge of building a range of crypto mining facilities, including a new 100-megawatt plant.

Xrp rose to a fresh five-month high on Tuesday, as prices climbed for a fourth straight session. The token moved to its highest point since November, which comes despite a red wave sweeping over cryptocurrency markets. The global market cap is down 2.35% as of writing.XRP
XRP, formerly ripple, rose for a fourth consecutive session on Monday, as prices hit their highest point in five months.
XRP/USD surged to an intraday high at $0.5029, less than 24 hours after falling to a low of $0.4573.
As a result of the move, XRP hit its strongest point since November 6, breaking out of a ceiling at $0.4950 in the process.

Earlier gains in XRP have already begun to ease, with bulls seemingly securing gains around this ceiling.

Lawmakers in the European Union have backed legislation imposing new capital requirements for financial institutions, including strict rules meant to cover crypto-related risks. The latter concern banks keeping digital assets and are expected to enter into force in January, 2025. EU Legislators Approve Draft Law Implementing the Basel III Capital Regulations for Banks
Members of the European Parliament’s Committee on Economic and Monetary Affairs (ECON) supported a bill on Tuesday designed to enforce the latest global bank capital rules. Reuters noted in a report that the lawmakers have also incorporated specific requirements addressing risks that stem from crypto assets.
The general rules are part of the Basel III reforms, a set of internationally agreed measures developed by the Basel Committee on Banking Supervision in the aftermath of the 2007-2009 financial crisis. Their main purpose is to strengthen the supervision and risk management of banks.
Other jurisdictions, including the U.S. and U.K., are also moving in a similar direction. However, ECON is introducing additional regulations with the European draft law, obliging banking institutions to hold enough capital to fully cover crypto asset holdings.
“Banks will be required to hold a euro of their own capital for every euro they hold in crypto,” explained Markus Ferber, a center-right member of the committee from Germany. He elaborated:

World Cup Win Fails To Kickstart ARG Price
The reduction in the value of the crypto asset is unexpected, as holders anticipated the victory would boost ARG's valuation.
ARG lost approximately 30 percent of its value in the first few days of the competition after Argentina's shocking loss to Saudi Arabia.
ARG, a token issued via the consumer-facing platform of Socios.com that offers its owners an increased fan interaction with the Argentine squad, had earlier rallied on major victories, such as the semi-final match against Croatia.
ARG was introduced in July 2021 and surged above $9 on November 18 — two days prior to the start of the World Cup. It has dropped roughly 70 percent from its all-time high since then.

|  | Kim Kardashian and Floyd Mayweather Win Tentative Court Ruling in Ethere...
Reality TV star Kim Kardashian and boxing legend Floyd Mayweather Jr. reportedly won a tentative court ruling in a class-action lawsuit involving the Ethereummax token. Investors have accused the celebrities of hyping Ethereummax and pumping the EMAX crypto token.Judge's Tentative View
U.S. District Judge Michael Fitzgerald gave his 'tentative view' Monday in a class-action lawsuit filed in January against Kim Kardashian and Floyd Mayweather Jr. over their promotion of the Ethereummax token, Bloomberg reported Tuesday. Former NBA star Paul Pierce is also a defendant in the proposed class-action suit.
The lawsuit alleges that the reality television star and ex-boxing champion scammed investors by hyping the Ethereummax token, causing investors to have to buy EMAX at 'inflated prices.' The plaintiffs detailed that the token's price surged 1,370% soon after its launch in May last year but then hit an all-time low in July — 'a 98% drop from which it has not been able to recover.'
In Monday's written order, Judge Fitzgerald explained the lawyers representing the investors are 'trying to act like' the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), the publication conveyed. He added that they 'haven’t chosen to view the tokens as a security' and didn’t invoke a standard securities fraud claim in their case. Fitzgerald also noted that the celebrities did not 'care to label the tokens as a security for obvious reasons.' The judge said he will issue a final written or...
|  | Cardano's Hoskinson: Peddling 'Conspiracy Theories' Will Not Help Ripple...
Ripple continues to be embroiled in a legal tussle with the SEC, and certain community members have claimed significant corruption on the agency's side for targeting the blockchain firm. Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson has cleared his stance on the matter and backed Ripple by saying that layer-1 protocols aren't securities.
The XRP Army, however, isn't happy with Hoskinson's take on the debate surrounding corruption inside the SEC.
Fragment the Space
XRP proponents believe there is a conflict of interest involving William Hinman, former SEC Director of Corporation Finance. During his time at the agency, he reportedly attended meetings with several Ethereum officials after declaring that ETH is not a security. Hinman's calender showed that he met with Ethereum-related entities four times between 2017 and 2018, far more frequently than any other crypto company.
It also revealed that Ripple and its legal team met with SEC representatives once in April of 2018, three times in 2019, and twice again in 2020. These developments supported the growing belief that the regulatory watchdog unfairly targeted the blockchain firm in its crackdown.
The Cardano founder, on the other hand, thinks otherwise. In a recent podcast with the Thinking Crypto founder Tony Edward, Hoskinson said the XRP community attempted to invent a 'grand conspiracy' about a 'blatant corruption' between the insiders at the SEC and Ethereum.
This did not sit well with the XRP Army, who subsequently called him ...

XRP is in a wait-and-see position as it braces for the conclusion of a lawsuit filed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission against Ripple Labs.
XRP’s forecast average price for October 2022 is $0.50995
XRP, at one point, was up by almost 60%
Ripple Labs continue to gain procedural wins against SEC
It can be recalled that on December 22, 2020, the regulatory body announced it has lodged a complaint against the American technology firm and two of its executives for selling XRP which the complainant considers an unregistered security.
Christian Larsen, co-founder and former CEO of Ripple Labs and Bradley Garlinghouse, current CEO, was also included in the lawsuit as the duo was alleged to be involved in making around $600 million by selling the cryptocurrency.
Since then, the digital asset seems to have been relegated to the sidelines, affecting its performance in the crypto space.
In fact, XRP has now lost 85% of its $3.40-all-time high value attained on May 22, 2014. The crypto, however, is refusing to be dragged down, as it slowly climbs back to relevance.
XRP Posts Impressive 30-Day Growth
At press time, according to data from CoinMarketCap, XRP is currently changing hands at $0.51. It has been down by 1.7% for the past hour but at one point was up by almost 60% for the last 30 days.

The crypto payments firm scored a procedural victory last week in part of its legal defense against the SEC. But it may not help its case.
Last week, Ripple notched another procedural victory as part of its ongoing legal defense against the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, which sued the crypto firm and several of its executives in 2020 for the unregistered sale of $1.3 billion worth of XRP.
On Sept. 29, a U.S. District Court judge ruled to release emails and other correspondence written by former SEC Corporation Finance Division Director William Hinman related to a speech where he said ether (ETH) was not a security because, like bitcoin, it was “sufficiently decentralized.”
These communications are a cornerstone of Ripple’s legal strategy in a case that is nearing the two-year mark. Instead of settling with the agency, Ripple seeks to prove the SEC has taken an unclear, contradictory and arbitrary approach to regulating crypto. If it’s successful, the case could set an important precedent for the crypto industry.
“The final version of Hinman’s speech discussed a concept that is central to the Ripple founders’ defense theory – whether assets that function solely as a means of exchange in a decentralized network are not a security, even if they could be packaged and sold as a security,” Liz Boison of Hogan Lovells, wrote in an opinion last week.
Though Hinman’s actual ...
|  | Another Win for Ripple: Judge Orders SEC to Hand Over Hinman Speech Docu...
New York judge Analisa Torres has ordered the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) to turn over internal documents, including emails and drafts, related to a speech from former commissioner William Hinman in 2018.
The order marks a big win for Ripple in its legal battle with the regulator, as the story behind the speech may hold the key to dismantling the SEC’s core legal argument.
Judge Overrules SEC
According to the letter filed by judge Torres on Thursday, the magistrate overruled all three of the commission’s objections to sharing the internal documents of the Hinman speech.
“The Court has reviewed the remainder of the thorough and well-reasoned Orders for clear error and finds none,” reads the letter from Torres. “Accordingly, the Court OVERRULES the SEC’s objections and directs the SEC to comply with the Orders.”
The SEC was initially called upon to turn over the documents by judge Sarah Netburn in January, finding that they were not protected by deliberative process privilege (DPP).
The SEC objected to the order in the following month, claiming that the internal speech documents were not relevant to any claim or defense in the case. It also argued that the DPP does, in fact, protect internal speech documents, as does attorney-client privilege.
However, the court sided with Ripple on the matter, agreeing that the speech documents “may be used to obtain potential impeachment evidence or to impeac...

|  | Avalanche Plays A Game Of Bounce Or Die, Can Bulls Win This Fight?
Avalanche (AVAX) price continues to hold key support against tether (USDT) as price finds itself amid death or survival. The crypto market has become promising as most altcoins appear bullish coming out of their shells, but the likes of Avalanche (AVAX) price continue in their struggle to survive. (Data from Binance)
Avalanche (AVAX) Price Analysis On The Weekly Chart
The price of AVAX has had a tough time replicating the move from a weekly low of $16 to a high of $30 as the price continues to remain dormant with little price action. In recent weeks, the price of AVAX showed so much strength rallying to $30 before being rejected, and the price has failed to hold above $22, acting as an area of interest.
AVAX price was not able to break out of the downtrend channel, forming a strong bullish bias as the crypto market could be set for a minor rally.
The price of AVAX saw a rejection from $25 and has struggled to reclaim this region; for AVAX to have a chance of trending higher, the price needs to reclaim $25 and flip it into a support for the price to trend higher.
If the AVAX price maintains this bearish structure, we could see the price of AVAX retesting the weekly low of $17, serving as good support for buy orders.
Weekly resistance for the price of AVAX - $25.
Weekly support for the price of AVAX - $17.

Earlier, Ripple sought permission from the court to seal the identities of nonparties, including digital asset participants and Ripple business partners, and likewise, Ripple employees that appear in the Daubert motions.
In a response submitted to Judge Torres by the agency on Ripple's sealing requests, the SEC stated: 'Based on the defendants' representations that they consider the standards of the sealing for Daubert motions to be different than from summary judgment motions, the SEC does not oppose the defendants' motion.
' It continues, 'In doing so, the SEC does not concede that the above categories of information should be properly sealed for summary judgment ...

|  | Bitcoin Slots – Which One to Play Right Now to Win Big?
There’s no denying the impact the emergence of cryptocurrency has had on society in general. The fact that it has been making giant strides into online gambling is an expected result of that. Today there are a ton of players for whom crypto is the ONLY currency they use to play.
If you look at the number of Bitcoin games that are available to players, there should be more. You can actually find quite a bit of them, depending on where you play, but shouldn’t all games be accepting crypto these days? You can find most information on sites like Bitcoin Casino Kings for example - a guide to crypto casinos that has been online since 2015.
Leaving Money on the Table
Fiat is clearly still dominating the industry and the majority of casinos are still not even looking at crypto as a next step as it does involve certain adjustments on their part. That is crazy if you ask me since there is a ton of money to be made and the longer you wait, the more of a disservice you are doing to yourself and potentially leaving stacks of money on the table.
Helpful Guides to Crypto Games
Today I wanted to take a look at what some of the most popular Bitcoin slots are out there and if they noticeably vary from popular fiat slots. To help players out, some of my favorite casinos have easy-to-find sections that will tell you where the crypto games are. I won’t go into detailed reviews of the games but I think it is interesting enough to write about.

|  | Sunshine Tour's Best Golfers to Win Bitcoin Awards
Sunshine Tour – a professional golf tournament held in Southern and Eastern Africa – partnered with Luno to bring cryptocurrencies closer to the participants. Apart from prizes in fiat currency, the top golfers will receive awards in bitcoin.
BTC Reaching the Golf Course
The primary cryptocurrency keeps making its way through the sports industry. The latest such example came from the prestigious golf championship – Sunshine Tour. The tournament, based in numerous African countries like Botswana, Kenya, Mauritius, Tanzania, and South Africa, will give around $31,000 worth of bitcoin to the golfer that finishes first.
The second-ranked will receive approximately $12,000 in BTC, while the third will get $6,000 worth of the asset.
Sunshine Tour’s partner is the cryptocurrency exchange Luno. The winners will have their bitcoin awards transferred to their Luno accounts. Marius Reitz – General Manager of the exchange – said his company’s goal is to empower people to access a “new financial system suited to the digital age.”
He further opined that the crypto opportunity could be beneficial to professional golfers who have a “very different way of thinking about risk and reward, both on and off the golf course:”

|  | XRP price tumbles after SEC scores important win in Ripple lawsuit
XRP price took a hit as the SEC maintained its offensive attack against the payment giant.
Presiding Judge Sarah Netburn denied Brad Garlinghouse's motion to compel the production of Estabrook notes.
Analysts believe XRP price could plummet as the payment giant lands a blow from the regulator in the SEC vs. Ripple case.
XRP price could plummet in response to the SEC's win in a recent ruling by Judge Sarah Netburn. Ripple officials' motion to compel the production of Estabrook notes was denied by judge Netburn, negatively affecting holder's sentiments.
Ripple price could plummet as SEC takes win
Ripple price could suffer a negative impact from the SEC's recent win in the SEC vs. Ripple case. Ripple's lawyers considered the production of Estabrook notes, from a meeting between former SEC commissioner Elad Roisman and Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse, as key to the payment giant's win in the lawsuit.
Judge Sarah Netburn denied Ripple's motion; therefore the notes remained privileged. This is a blow to Ripple's defense in the SEC's case against the payment giant, and investors are now holding back as a result of the change in sentiment.
Since Estabrook notes can no longer be accessed, it is a challenge to provide evidence of Ripple's executives' efforts to comply with the US securities’ law. The SEC cited privilege and refused access to the notes, landing a blow to the payment giant.
On April 20, Judge Netburn denied the production of the ...
