Federal Investigators Probe Silicon Valley Bank Collapse; SVB and Top Ex...

    The parent company of Silicon Valley Bank, SVB Financial Group, and two senior executives have been sued by shareholders after SVB's collapse last Friday. The proposed class action accuses SVB of hiding the fact that interest rate hikes would leave the bank in jeopardy. Additionally, anonymous sources say the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) are investigating the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank.Report Says Investigations Into Silicon Valley Bank's Collapse Include Stock Sales by Senior Executives SVB Financial Group, the parent company of Silicon Valley Bank, and its CEO Greg Becker and CFO Daniel Beck have been named in a lawsuit, according to reports on March 13th. Reuters reported that the proposed class action accuses the bank and senior executives of hiding the potential harm that rising interest rates could cause to the now-failed financial institution. The class action was filed in federal court in San Jose, California, and is led by Chandra Vanipenta, who is representing SVB shareholders. Silicon Valley Bank was placed into receivership by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC) on Friday. On Sunday, the U.S. Federal Reserve, FDIC, and Treasury announced that all depositors would be reimbursed. The FDIC then converted SVB into a bridge bank under its control and opened the financial institution to depositors on Monday. The lawsuit against SVB seeks unspecified damages for shareholders, and Vanipenta contends th... read More



Blockchain Retail Market Size to Top Over $2 Billion by 2028 — Stu...

    According to Fortune Business Insights, the global blockchain retail market size is expected to surge from the $172.2 million recorded in 2021 to over $2 billion by 2028. Both the demand for the product by end-users as well as the growing use of the technology in supply chain management are expected to sustain the market's projected compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 42.8%. Inherent Benefits of Blockchain The value of the global blockchain retail market size is expected to grow from the $172.2 million recorded in 2021 to over $2 billion by 2028, a study by the market research firm Fortune Business Insights has found. In a report titled 'Blockchain in Retail Market Forecast, 2023-2028,' the research firm also revealed that the CAGR during this period is expected to top 42.8%. According to a part of the research firm's March 10 press statement highlighting the likely drivers of demand for the technology, Fortune Business Insights analysts argue that the 'surging demand for the product from end-users such as retail as well as [the] supply chain is expected to navigate the demand for [a] solution in retail.'

Artificial Intelligence & Crypto Guide: Here Are the Top 5 AI Coins

    The cryptocurrency industry is known for its explosive trends where a group of projects takes for the sky, outperforming the rest of the market considerably. There’s been a few of these already in 2023, but one that stands out seems to be a trend related to projects that have been working on solutions based on Artificial Intelligence. A closer look at AI-related crypto projects reveals that a whole lot of them have vastly outperformed the rest of the industry, multiplying their value by a considerable factor. The following takes a closer look at the reasons this happened, what provoked it, and what are some of the best-known crypto projects associated with it. Let’s dive in. Quick Navigation What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)? The ChatGPT Mania Tech Giants Spend Big Bucks The Crypto Trend Top 5 AI Cryptocurrencies What is Artificial Intelligence (AI)? First, artificial intelligence is not a new phenomenon in the world of technology. It’s also important to note that there is no consensus on the definition of AI, which makes it challenging to pinpoint a single-sided use case. Many consider AI to be a particularly critical piece of technology with transformative properties and the potential to change our society. In Layman’s terms, artificial intelligence is the simulation of human intelligence processes by computer systems or other types of machines.

FLOKI Enters Top 100 Following 15% Daily Surge: Market Watch

    The untypical lack of any volatility continues for bitcoin as the cryptocurrency keeps trading around $22,400. The altcoins are in a similar state, with little-to-no movements from most larger caps. FLOKI has taken advantage and has popped into the top 100 after a massive daily surge. Will Bitcoin Finally Move Today? Last Friday saw a massive price plunge from bitcoin that drove it from over $23,400 to just below $22,000 in minutes as the Silvegate issues intensified. However, that was the last piece of price volatility for the cryptocurrency for the next several days. The weekend was somewhat expectedly calm as the trading volumes had declined. Nevertheless, Monday didn't produce any large price movements either, as BTC traded in a tight range between $22,300 and $22,600. All that could change later today when Fed Chair Jerome Powell is scheduled to testify in front of Congress about the central bank's monetary policy. Given the history between the Fed's interest rate hikes and BTC's price volatility, it's safe to assume that there would be some fluctuations today and, in fact, during the rest of the week as there're more events and announcements coming from the US. BTCUSD. Source: TradingView FLOKI Enters Top 100 Most alternative coins have remained stuck in the same position as the past few days as well. Minor daily gains are evident from Ethereum, Binance Coin, Ripple, Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and Tron. Polygon has increased the most from the top 10, following a 2.5% daily ju... read More



Redemption and Reshuffling: BUSD's Exit From Top 10 Cryptocurrencies Sha...

    It has been 21 days since Paxos revealed that it would no longer mint the stablecoin BUSD. Since then, over 7 billion BUSD stablecoins have been redeemed. Prior to the announcement, BUSD was once a top-ten crypto asset. However, the top ten cryptocurrencies by market valuation have changed since the redemptions. Presently, there are only two stablecoins in the top ten standings, and the Okx exchange token, OKB, has joined the pack.2023 Records Changes in the Top 10 Cryptocurrencies by Market Capitalization Every year, the top ten cryptocurrencies by market capitalization change significantly, such as last year when three stablecoins entered the top ten for the first time. Additionally, the number of proof-of-work (PoW) cryptocurrencies in the top ten fell to two tokens last year (BTC, DOGE), and that remains the case today. In the 21 days since BUSD was removed from the top ten standings, the top ten cryptocurrency competitors have changed. For example, there are now only two stablecoins in the group, including tether (USDT), the third-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, and usd coin (USDC), the fifth-largest crypto in terms of market valuation. A relatively new entrant into the top ten cryptocurrencies by market capitalization is polygon (MATIC), currently the tenth largest digital token by valuation. The day before Paxos announced it would no longer mint BUSD, MATIC was the tenth largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, with an $11.55 billion market ca... read More

A Top Italian Football Club is Taking Payments in This Cryptocurrency

    AS Roma – a top Italian soccer club – is now accepting payment in DigitalBits (XDB), the self-described “leading blockchain for brands.” Payments will be taken across five of the club’s flagship retail stores, including Via del Corso, Piazza Colonna, Ottaviano, Porta di Roma, and Fan zone at Stadio Olimpico. AS Roma Accepts Crypto Per a press release shared with CryptoPotato, customers will be able to use DigitalBits to purchase branded AS Roma merchandise.  Payments can be made through the AstraX mobile wallet by scanning a QR code, at which point payments are processed within a few seconds, and customers are given cash-back through XDB. They are processed by the DigitalBits blockchain, and Coinbar pay processing provides additional support.  “This is a big step for the DigitalBits community as we look to drive the adoption of crypto and Web3,” said Daniele Mensi, Managing Director at DigitalBits Foundation. “As one of the premier football clubs in the world with millions of fans worldwide, it is the perfect next step in this product-focused partnership to provide a consumer-friendly onboarding experience to the next generation of web3 users.” Making crypto payments mainstream is an ongoing challenge for many businesses and brands as they attempt to foster cryptocurrency adoption beyond mere speculation.

FTX Top Executive Pleads Guilty to Fraud

    Nishad Singh – the former head of engineering at bankrupt crypto exchange giant FTX – pleaded guilty to six criminal charges related to his activity with the firm during a court hearing on Tuesday. The ex- executive’s crimes include wire fraud, conspiracy to commit wire fraud, conspiracy to commit money laundering, and violation of campaign finance laws.  Another Guilty FTX Executive The plea, reported by Reuters,  was accepted by U.S. District Judge Lewis Kaplan and is the next in a list of similar guilty admissions from fellow higher-ups in Sam Bankman-Fried’s crypto empire. Alameda Research CEO Caroline Ellison and FTX co-founder Gary Wang pleaded guilty to multiple charges related to a years-long fraud scheme at FTX in December.  Word began to spread that Singh was planning a guilty plea earlier this month, as part of a plea deal with federal prosecutors. This followed the executive’s entrance into a proffer session with the SDNY attorney’s office in January – a semi-formal discussion in which Singh had limited immunity, and where the court could determine if he had useful information related to the case.  After determining that he could assist, Singh would then be granted the opportunity for a plea deal – whereby a defendant pleads guilty and agrees to cooperate with prosecutors in return for a lesser sentence.  Singh's involvement with the alleged FTX fraud appears steep: After moving from Alameda ... read More

    After Paxos announced that it would no longer mint the stablecoin BUSD, 4.98 billion BUSD stablecoins have been removed from circulation to date. The Paxos-managed stablecoin has also fallen out of the top ten crypto assets by market capitalization, slipping below dogecoin's valuation with a market cap of around $11.12 billion, compared to the meme coin's $11.24 billion.BUSD Redemption: Almost $5 Billion Worth of Stablecoins Removed from Circulation in 12 Days Since Paxos announced on Feb. 13, 2023, that it would no longer issue the dollar-pegged crypto asset BUSD, nearly $5 billion worth of BUSD stablecoins have been redeemed. At the time of the announcement, there were approximately 16.1 billion BUSD coins in circulation, but today there are around 11,129,348,406 BUSD circulating. Throughout the past 12 days and the redemption of 4.98 billion BUSD, the dollar-pegged crypto asset has remained at parity with the U.S. dollar. On Feb. 25, 2023, Binance's reserve portfolio showed that the crypto exchange held $9.01 billion in BUSD. Globally, BUSD had a 24-hour trade volume of around $6.84 billion, with Binance being the most active BUSD exchange, according to coingecko.com stats. The majority of BUSD trades were paired with the stablecoin tether (USDT), while the Turkish lira still accounted for 2.80% of all BUSD trades on Saturday.

Commodity Strategist Mike McGlone Predicts a Recession as Top Catalyst f...

    This week, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Macro Strategist Mike McGlone shared his March outlook and noted that the 'top catalyst' that could push gold above the $2,000-per-ounce range is a recession. McGlone further explained in an update about bitcoin and the Nasdaq that a key ingredient to force the U.S. Federal Reserve to pivot its stance is 'a sharp drop in the stock market.”Mike McGlone Shares March Outlook for Precious Metals and Cryptocurrencies Gold and silver prices were lower this past week, with gold close to dropping below the $1,800-per-ounce range and silver clinging just above the $20-per-ounce range. The global cryptocurrency market capitalization today is $1.08 trillion, a decrease of around 1.57% over the last day. Earlier this week, Bloomberg Intelligence Senior Macro Strategist Mike McGlone shared his March predictions concerning assets like commodities, precious metals, equities, and bitcoin. Regarding bitcoin, McGlone questions whether the recent rally was hollow or an enduring recovery. The Bloomberg analyst noted that 'cryptos have never faced a U.S. recession, Fed tightening, and the bitcoin 50-week moving average below the 200-week.' McGlone detailed that at some point, most risk assets will bottom, but with the U.S. central bank still in tightening mode, most markets have bounced. 'Bitcoin's 50-week moving average has never crossed below its 200-week level amid the Fed's tightening, and the crypto has bounced to this line in the sand at about ... read More



Federal Judge Rules NBA Top Shot NFTs May Be Considered Unregistered Sec...

    A federal judge, Victor Marrero, ruled on Wednesday that the NBA Top Shot non-fungible tokens (NFTs) issued by Dapper Labs may meet the requirements to be considered an unregistered security. The case arose in 2021 when an NBA Top Shot collector sued Dapper Labs, claiming that the NBA Top Shot NFTs, known as 'Moments” issued via the Flow blockchain, are securities.Judge’s Ruling Allows Friel v. Dapper Labs Case to Continue United States District Court judge Victor Marrero agreed with the plaintiffs who filed a lawsuit against Dapper Labs on Feb. 22, 2023, noting that NBA Top Shot NFTs could plausibly be unregistered securities in the eyes of the law. On May 13, 2021, Jeeun Friel sued Dapper Labs for selling Top Shot NFTs without registering with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Dapper Labs attempted to get the court to dismiss the case, but Marrero denied the company's motion. Marrero's ruling simply allows the case to continue based on the judge's opinion that NBA Top Shot NFTs may be considered a security. Marrero said the ruling does not apply to the sale and distribution of FLOW, the Flow blockchain's native crypto asset. However, the Howey Test was applied to the NBA Top Shot 'Moments' NFTs, and the Howey analysis is what supports the judge's decision. 'Although the literal word ‘profit’ is not included in any of the tweets, the ‘rocket ship’ emoji, ‘stock chart’ emoji, and ‘money bags’ emoji o... read More



NBA Top Shots NFTs Might Be Securities, Rules Federal Judge in Dapper La...

    Dapper Labs will be forced to face a lawsuit from the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) alleging that the NFT Top Shot NFT Moments on its platform are unregistered securities, following a judge’s refusal to dismiss the case on Wednesday. United States District Court Judge Victor Marrero ruled that such NFTs may plausibly qualify as securities under the Howey Test.  Are NFTs Securities? Per Marreno’s ruling, part of what makes the SEC’s allegations “facially plausible” is that the NFTs in question circulate on the Flow blockchain – a private network developed and maintained by Dapper. Without Dapper’s efforts, such NFTs would theoretically have no value, ticking the final prong of the Howey Test requiring another party’s efforts to uphold an investment’s value. “The economic realities and technological interplay between FLOW, the Flow blockchain, and Moments, as alleged by Plaintiffs, are what supports the Court’s conclusions,” read the filing.  The Howey Test is a legal standard used since the 1930s for determining what assets constitute securities. It is often invoked by the SEC today when making rulings pertaining to cryptocurrencies and NFTs, of which the agency’s chairman – Gary Gensler – believes a vast majority are securities.  Howey requires that an investment be made in a common enterprise, with an expectation of profits based on the efforts of others. The f... read More



Paraguay to Become Top Bitcoin Mining Hub in Latam According to Insight ...

    Paraguay, one of the smallest countries in Latam, has the conditions needed to become the next Bitcoin mining hub in the region, according to mining insight group Hashrate Index. The company notes there are many elements in favor of Paraguay, including the abundance of clean hydroelectric power sources. However, the stance that the government has taken toward cryptocurrency mining could slow this growth process. Paraguay Has All the Elements to Become a Bitcoin Mining Power in Latam, According to Insight Group Paraguay, a country not especially known for its crypto affiliations, is now being considered one of the most attractive destinations in Latam for bitcoin miners. According to mining insight company Hashrate Index, the country presents a series of benefits that could help it become one of the biggest cryptocurrency hubs in the region. The first advantage that Paraguay has over other countries in the area, and what made it an attractive location for miners after the Chinese miner exodus, is the abundance of clean, cheap hydroelectric power, that can be used to build large bitcoin mining operations. Most of this power comes from the Itaipu Dam, with Paraguayans reportedly consuming only about 10% of the power produced. While most of this energy gets exported to neighboring countries, it can be sourced to power big mining operations in the future, according to the group. Some Disadvantages Hashrate Index says there are currently two different disadvantages of choos... read More

Is Joe Biden's Pick for Top Economic Adviser Good or Bad for Crypto?

    The President of the United States - Joe Biden - will reportedly appoint Lael Brainard (Vice Chair of the Federal Reserve) as his top economic adviser.  The latter is a critic of cryptocurrencies, arguing they could undermine America's financial stability. On the other hand, she is a proponent of a digital dollar that would be highly centralized and monitored by the authorities. Anti-Crypto Position According to a Bloomberg coverage, President Biden will soon name Lael Brainard as his top financial adviser. She previously worked at the White House, serving as a Deputy Director of the National Economic Council (NEC) under President Bill Clinton. Brainard was also nominated as a Fed Governor in 2014 by Barack Obama. The Democrat is known as an opponent of cryptocurrencies, opining that bank involvement in the asset class could cause monetary chaos. She believes a potential crash of the digital asset market could resonate in the financial sector. Brainard expressed concerns about Decentralized Finance (DeFi), saying the new technology could be a catalyst for possible illicit activities: 'The permissionless exchange of assets and tools that obscure the source of funds not only facilitate evasion, but also increase the risk of theft, hacks, and ransom attacks.' Lael Brainard, Source: Fox Business Pro-CBDC At the same time, Biden's future economic adviser is fond of the creation of a digital dollar. She announced that America's central bank was working on s... read More

Top 5 GameFi Cryptos To Watch This February

    With so many sharp twists and turns happening in the blockchain and crypto space, the GameFi space is getting robust now more than ever. Evidently, experts say that 2023 is the 'build phase' for GameFi and it is set to explode in the next couple of months. Considerably, blockchain games are seen to have doubled since last year. In fact, in 2021, blockchain games were able to amass as much as $476 million in revenues. The year 2022 was also a phenomenal year for the play-to-earn (P2E) industry.  Here Are The Top 5 GameFi Cryptos To Watch This Year Avalanche (AVAX) Avalanche is known for its scalability and security. It’s also a winner in terms of customer experience compared to other blockchain platforms. It is an open-source platform that allows users to build and release their very own decentralized applications (dApps).

Ghanaian Cedi Second Worst-Performing Asset Among Sub-Saharan Africa's T...

    In just the first 17 days of the new year, the Ghanaian currency reportedly depreciated by 12.7%, making it the second worst-performing among Sub-Saharan Africa's top 15 currencies. While one U.S. dollar bought 13.10 units of the cedi on the parallel market, according to the latest Bank of Ghana data, one greenback buys around 10.36 units of the local currency. The Cedi's Short-Lived Resurgence After ending 2022 as one of the world’s worst-performing currencies, the Ghanaian currency is already one of two in Sub-Saharan Africa's top 15 currencies that depreciated by double-digit figures within the first 17 days of the new year, a report has said. The Egyptian pound, which depreciated by 16.5% during the same period, is the only currency among Sub-Saharan Africa’s top 15 that has depreciated faster than the cedi. Although the Ghanaian cedi’s year-to-date 12.7% drop is still lower than that of the whole of 2022 (38.86%), the latest depreciation suggests that the currency’s resurgence that started in late 2022 has dissipated. As reported by Bitcoin.com News in mid-December 2022, the cedi rallied from around GHS14:$1 to under 9:1 in just four days. The currency’s revival had been fueled by reports suggesting the Ghanaian government had secured a $3 billion loan from the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Ghana needs the loan to help it stabilize its economy. In addition to the IMF loan package, Ghana, one of Africa’s top gold producers, hopes ... read More



Cardano (ADA) Appears In Top Trending Crypto List, Surpassing BTC

    Weeks have gone by, and the crypto market is still seeing a bullish trend, and the dubbed ‘mini bull run’ for the ongoing market movement is beginning to look more prominent. Altcoins such as Cardano (ADA) have moved significantly in price breaking multiple resistance and climbing higher highs while ignoring a retrace.  In today’s news, ADA has once again proven its potential to be small but mighty as the token appeared in the top trending crypto list on the crypto analytics platform StockTwits, surpassing Bitcoin (BTC), which comes second below ADA.  ADA Obtains First Position In Top Trending Crypto List  In a series of tweets shared by StockTwits, the crypto analytics platform ranked ADA as the most trending cryptocurrency on the platform, noting; “Cardano is also trending #1 on Stocktwits!.” At the time, ADA had a trading price of $0.3774, up by 11%, and a change of $0.0382.

Bitcoin Short Squeeze May Reach $30,000, Top Crypto Trader Predicts

    As Bitcoin breaks out of the $21k level, many crypto analysts have begun projecting further rallies for the asset. One of the famous crypto strategists, Crypto Kaleo, recently gave a high price prediction for the world’s largest cryptocurrency. Addressing his over 550,000 followers on Twitter, Kaleo says BTC is preparing for a rally to $30,000. Bitcoin last saw $30,000 during the bear market in June 2022. However, the crypto strategist believes there would be fluctuations as Bitcoin targets $30,000, albeit his bullish stance. In his words, the market should expect more falls before Bitcoin reaches $30,000. According to Kaleo, there would be some lows beneath $20k, which would trigger lower positions before Bitcoin can be ready for the short squeeze.  A short squeeze occurs when crypto traders borrow assets at a particular price, hoping to sell them lower and keep the difference. These traders often use overleverage short positions in the futures market. However, the traders would have no choice but to buy the borrowed assets as price propulsion pushes against them, sparking more rallies as market makers take out their liquidity to keep the momentum.  Kaleo is confident that the short squeeze is approaching since the BTC price has already jumped above 23% within seven days. Bitcoin Rally Could Signal Increased Volatility BTC has witnessed several bullish indicators since the beginning of 2023, bringing it to a year-high of over $21,000. Bitcoin’s bullish... read More



XRP Transactions Skyrocket In Australian Top Exchanges
