The decentralized finance (DeFi) market is one of the fastest growing markets in the world. In less than two decades a whole new industry has been created with new opportunities for investors every day. Three great investment opportunities are Solana (SOL), Ethereum (ETH), and Collateral Network (COLT). Each project brings innovative new ideas to the market and could significantly influence the future of DeFi, with Collateral Network (COLT) set to completely revolutionize the lending industry alongside 35x gains. >>BUY COLT TOKENS NOW>BUY COLT TOKENS NOW<< Collateral Network (COLT) Applies DeFi To Crowdfunding Collateral Network (COLT) is a new decentralized crowdlending platform in the market that's caught the attention of investors world wide. Using Collateral Networks (COLT) cross-chain network, borrowers will be able to unlock cash from physical off-chain assets using NFTs. Here&rsquo;s how it works. If a borrower on Collateral Network (COLT) holds an expensive physical asset and wants a short term loan, they can create an NFT backed 1:1 by that asset. This NFT is then fractionalized, meaning that lenders can collectively fund the loan by offering fractions of the required capital. This increases the number of investors who can become lenders. Once loaned, lenders will generate a passive income from their loan based on a fixed interest rate, enabling users on the COLT platform to become their own banks. This process is significantly faster than traditional crowdlending processes, and allows borrowers to hold onto their physical assets. To give early investors peace of mind, Collateral Network (COLT)&rsquo;s smart contract has been successfully audited, and its liquidity pool will be locked for 33 years to prevent a rug pull. COLT, the native token of Collateral Network, can be purchased for $0.01 during phase one of the project's presale, with COLT holders earning access to a VIP members club, as well as staking, governance rights, and more. Analysts forecast that due to its immense potential and real-world use cases, COLT is highly likely to surge by up to 3500% over the coming months! With this projection in mind, Collateral Network (COLT) is easily one of the most promising presales on the market today.

Enabling drivers and fleet operators to own and monetize their connected vehicle data IoTeX continues to take demonstrate why it is the leading DePIN technology provider DIMO puts vehicle owners back into the drivers&rsquo; seat offering enhanced mobility services IoTeX and DIMO are working to improve the driver and fleet operator experience for millions of vehicle owners worldwide. To kick off the partnership, IoTeX will build a W3bstream integration on the DIMO network and to invest in reducing the cost of the DIMO Hardware for users. IoTeX's goal is to drive the global transformation of mobility services on DIMO. Integrating W3bstream, the first smart device-to-smart contract off-chain compute infrastructure, onto the DIMO network, allows Web3 developers access to zero-party mobility data, unlocking the potential for groundbreaking automotive dApps that enable consumers and fleet operators to take control of their vehicle data. These dApps will also unlock significantly improved services, including automotive finance, insurance, shared mobility, maintenance, etc. Numbers that matter The DIMO-IoTeX partnership aims to improve driver and fleet operator experience for the 250 million connected vehicles on roads worldwide today, which represents 24% of all cars. By the end of this year, that number will increase to 350 million; by 2030, experts expect it to reach up to 2.5 billion. Furthermore, there are reports that data profits could surpass vehicle sales. A McKinsey report recently revealed that by 2030, 95% of all vehicles sold could be connected, and in that same study, they estimated that by then, data from advanced vehicles could represent a yearly income for their owners of about $600.. Other reports claim profit from vehicle data could soon surpass the cost of the vehicle itself. "DIMO solves a big problem and puts vehicle owners back in the digital driver's seat of their vehicles," said DIMO Co-Founder Andy Chatham. "Just four months after our network launched 10,000 vehicles that have traveled 50 million miles, more developers and users are starting to recognize that an open approach to vehicle connectivity will win." "Nine out of ten people believe they own and control their vehicle's data, and that isn't the case today," explained Chatham, co-founder of Digital Infrastructure Inc. "We're excited to have more partners helping us grow the DIMO project into a movement." An evolving partnership IoTeX, a Web3 infrastructure platform connecting intelligent devices and real-world data to blockchains, and DIMO, a platform connecting drivers and their data with developers and manufacturers to drive change in mobility services, have plans to evolve this partnership over time to continue delivering benefits to users.

DeFi project Safemoon has announced that its liquidity pool has been compromised, according to a statement on its official Twitter handle. So far, the amount of funds stolen due to the exploit remains unknown. Liquidity Pool Compromised Safemoon stated that it is taking steps to resolve the matter. However, details around the issue remain sketchy at best. &ldquo;We are taking swift action in an attempt to resolve the issue as soon as possible. Follow here for updates. Thank you for your support as we work to address this situation.&rdquo; CEO John Karony retweeted the same statement but has not commented further. Safepool is a Metaverse, blockchain, NFT, and Web 3.0 building and innovation ecosystem. However, the company has been at the center of several controversies since its launch in March 2021. The Bug In Question While Safemoon has remained mum about the incident, several others have commented on the developments. Security firm PeckShield has stated that an update to a contract introduced a burn bug that allowed anyone to destroy tokens. PeckShield stated that the upgrade looked to be initiated by a deployer contract, making it possible that there was an admin key leak. However, the firm could not state how much crypto, if any, has been compromised. &ldquo;Hi @safemoon, The upgrade, with the exploited public burn bug, was initiated by the official SafeMoon: Deployer. (Admin key leak?).&rdquo; Meanwhile, Web 3.0 developer DeFi mark stated that SafeMoon was hacked for $8.9 million, adding that he was able to identify an obvious exploit. The public burn function allows users to burn tokens from any other address. The attacker exploited this function to remove SFM tokens from the SafeMoon WBNB Liquidity Pool, artificially inflating the price of the native token. Attacker Reaches Out Following the news of the exploit, the protocol&rsquo;s native SFM token tanked, dropping as much as 30%. However, barely hours after the exploit, the attackers in question responded to a message in the transaction thread, seemingly suggesting that they were willing to return the funds to Safemoon, which indeed they did. Data from Peckshield showed that the attackers had sent 4000 BNB tokens worth $1.2 million. &ldquo;Hey, relax. We are accidentally frontrun an attack against you. We would like to return the fund, set up a secure communication channel, lets talk.&rdquo; Controversy&rsquo;s Child The attack and subsequent compromise could not have come at a worse time for Safemoon, which had recently been promoting its security offering, Orbital Shield. While the exploit is not related to this product, it does not really inspire confidence in the project&rsquo;s security products. The protocol has been dogged by controversy since its inception in 2021. In 2022, the protocol came under heavy criticism from YouTuber Coffeezilla, who stated that the project&rsquo;s former CEO, known only as Kyle, had committed fraud. He also alleged that the current CEO had stolen from his own project. The protocol has also been the subject of a number of class action lawsuits, further damaging its reputation. The lawsuits have accused the project of being a pump-and-dump scheme and is in violation of several securities laws. The SFM token saw a considerable surge when one of the lawsuits was dropped. However, that gain proved to be very short-lived. Disclaimer: This article is provided for informational purposes only.

The 3AC founders will be found in contempt of court if they fail to reply to the order.

PeckShield said SafeMoon’s official deployer initiated the project's contract upgrade that introduced the bug, signaling a possible admin key leak.

The cryptocurrency industry has undoubtedly had a rocky few years. From high-profile scams to market crashes and regulatory hurdles, the industry has faced numerous setbacks that have shaken the confidence of even the most ardent crypto idealists. The "idealist" crypto projects and platforms can help unlock practical value. Adhering to core principles, such as decentralization, user control, and being verifiable, is essential to make a lasting industry impact. Those approaches introduce many new hurdles and challenges, but the following platforms continue innovating and pushing the industry forward - keeping crypto idealism alive. Theta Network (Decentralized Video Streaming) The decentralized video delivery network aims to disrupt the traditional video streaming industry. It uses blockchain technology to create a peer-to-peer network of users sharing video content, reducing the need for centralized servers and cutting costs. Theta Network also rewards users who contribute their computing resources to the network with Theta tokens, which can be used to access premium content and services on the platform. Theta Network has partnered with some of the biggest names in the video streaming industry, including Samsung, Google, and MGM Studios. As a result, it has a growing user base of millions of users worldwide. In addition, the platform's unique approach to video delivery has earned it praise from industry experts, and it has the potential to disrupt the traditional video streaming industry in a significant way. Nimiq (Crypto For Everyone) Nimiq is a decentralized cryptocurrency project that aims to make cryptocurrency accessible to everyone through a user-friendly and easy-to-use platform. A crucial boon of Nimiq is its focus on usability and accessibility, which makes it ideal for new users looking to enter the cryptocurrency world. That approach has given birth to various tools and infrastructure solutions to enable mass cryptocurrency adoption. A core benefit of Nimiq is its fast transaction times. Nimiq uses a unique consensus algorithm called Albatross, which allows for near-instant transactions. That is a significant advantage compared to other cryptocurrencies, which may take several minutes or even hours to confirm transactions. In essence, Nimiq is a decentralized payment solution with a native blockchain. Its team aims to usher in a global monetary system without intermediaries. In addition, its solution is non-discriminatory, secure, cheap, eco-friendly, and collaborative. It also removes concerns over market volatility, technical expertise requirements, and clunky interfaces. Cardano (Blockchain Infrastructure) Another platform that crypto idealists should keep their eye on is Cardano. Founded by Charles Hoskinson, one of the original co-founders of Ethereum, Cardano aims to create a more sustainable and scalable blockchain platform than its predecessors. Unlike other blockchain platforms that use proof-of-work algorithms to verify transactions, Cardano uses a more energy-efficient and scalable proof-of-stake consensus mechanism. Cardano also aims to provide greater security and transparency than other blockchain platforms by separating its transaction validation and computation processes into two separate layers. This approach allows for greater flexibility and efficiency and makes it easier to update the platform over time. Cardano's commitment to sustainability, scalability, and security has earned it a loyal following among crypto enthusiasts, and it has already established partnerships with several major companies and organizations. Lens Protocol (Decentralized Social Media) Lens Protocol is a decentralized platform built on the Polygon blockchain that allows users to create, trade, and manage synthetic assets. These synthetic assets are created by mirroring the value of other assets, such as commodities, stocks, and fiat currencies. It allows users to gain exposure to the underlying asset without owning it. The Lens Protocol platform is powered by smart contracts that ensure the accuracy and transparency of each transaction. Users can create synthetic assets or invest in existing ones called lenses. Each lens is backed by collateral, which is held in a smart contract, and the underlying asset's value determines its value. When a user invests in a lens, they receive a corresponding amount of synthetic tokens, which can be traded or redeemed for the underlying asset at any time. The Lens Protocol platform also includes a governance system that allows users to vote on proposals related to the platform's development and management. That gives users a say in how the platform operates and ensures it remains community-driven and decentralized. Overall, Lens Protocol provides a flexible and efficient way for users to gain exposure to a wide range of assets while leveraging the security and speed of the Polygon blockchain. To conclude, there is still a lot of activity in the cryptocurrency and blockchain space. While the overarching market momentum may remain volatile, builders put their best foot forward to unlock a brighter future. The projects outlined above showcase the building blocks users can experiment with today and in the future. Moreover, the varied approach by developers to explore different concepts - video streaming, social media, and making crypto more accessible - confirms the evolution of overall infrastructure. There is much more potential to unlock in the industry, as a decentralized web is inevitable at this point. Disclaimer: This article is provided for informational purposes only.

Circle has announced that the USDC stablecoin will be launching in the Cosmos ecosystem through its partnership with the Noble network. The launch will make USDC available to all Cosmos IBC blockchains. USDC Comes To Cosmos Soon after making its way out of stealth, Noble Protocol has announced that it has entered into a partnership that will bring USDC natively to the Cosmos ecosystem. The news was announced by Circle, the issuer of the stablecoin, in a Twitter post, "We're excited to bring USDC to @Cosmos! USDC is expected to launch on @noble_xyz soon; stay tuned for details. #IBC" Noble Protocol also made its own announcement on Twitter, although no specific timeline or date for USDC's launch on Cosmos has been shared. "This is a huge moment for our ecosystem. @Cosmos has never had a native, fiat-backed stablecoin that is highly liquid & fully collateralized. For the first time in @Cosmos history, 50+ IBC-enabled blockchains (& counting!) will soon be able to access USDC natively via IBC." However, both Circle and Noble have asked users to "stay tuned." USDC is currently the second-largest stablecoin in the crypto space behind Tether and plays a crucial role in several decentralized finance (DeFi) projects. It is also used as collateral for lending and borrowing and generates yield thanks to its stability and dollar peg. While the stablecoin went through some volatility following the collapse of Silvergate Bank and Silicon Valley Bank, it has regained its dollar peg. First Native Stablecoin Cosmos is an interconnected web of blockchains that utilize the Tendermint Byzantine fault-tolerance protocol, Application Blockchain Interface, and Cosmos Software Development Kit. The Noble team stated that following the launch, USDC will be the first native, fiat-backed stablecoin on the Cosmos Inter-Blockchain Communication protocol. The team believes that introducing the highly liquid and fiat-backed USDC stablecoin would solve several challenges users face on Cosmos face when they try to bridge assets between different networks. The team explained, "This integration will catalyze hundreds of millions of dollars in liquidity over the coming months in Cosmos and will seek to rectify the challenges that users and appchains face when interacting with bridged assets sourced from other ecosystems. [&hellip;] Every blockchain needs a canonical and fungible version of USDC, and Noble exists to fulfill this critical need." Currently, users on Cosmos can only access major stablecoins through bridge protocols such as Axelar and Gravity. With the introduction of USDC, DeFi protocols in the ecosystem will have a single stablecoin to turn to, and Noble hopes this could inject new liquidity into the ecosystem. CEO of Noble, Jelena Djuric, stated, "It's also for the users themselves to have a seamless process of accessing native assets in the ecosystem. At the end of the day, we're seeking to rectify the challenges that users and app chains face when interacting with bridge assets." Cosmos has seen a flurry of activity in recent months. In January, Injective Protocol launched a $150 million fund to promote further user adoption of the Cosmos ecosystem. The fund was backed by the likes of Jump Crypto, Pantera Capital, and others known for investing in blockchain projects. February saw the allocation of $40 million by the Cosmos Interchain Foundation to promote the development of core infrastructure and applications for the Cosmos ecosystem. Circle's Plans For Cosmos Circle had first stated its intention to launch USDC on Cosmos as early as September of last year. Furthermore, the decision to launch USDC on Cosmos is also linked to the fact that the lending protocol dYdX will soon be moving from Ethereum to the Cosmos IBC. Djuric added, "We're very much doing this in preparation for dYdX's launch. We see this as a huge moment for the Cosmos and the app chain thesis because this is a project that has already got a lot of success on Ethereum."

Developers on Ethereum have announced that the Shapella upgrade will take place on the 12th of April, 2023. The upgrade will take effect at epoch 194,048, coming as a relief for validators on the platform. Withdrawals Incoming The Shappella hard fork will come as a huge relief to Proof-of-Stake validators, who will finally be able to withdraw their ETH from the platform. The fork, scheduled for the 23rd of April, will enable withdrawals through the Ethereum Improvement Proposal (EIP) 4895. Once implemented, this will push staked Ether from the Beacon Chain to the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM), also known as the execution layer. Ethereum core developer Tim Beiko announced the news on Twitter, stating, &ldquo;It&rsquo;s happening Shapella is scheduled on mainnet for epoch 194048, scheduled for 22:27:35 UTC on the 12th of April, 2023. Client releases compatible with the upgrade are listed in the announcement below.&rdquo; The time, slot, and epoch for the upgrade were confirmed after lengthy deliberations and discussions between members of the Ethereum Foundation, led by Beiko. The hard fork will finally enable the partial and complete withdrawal of ETH. However, several mechanisms have been put in place to ensure that a flood of unlocked ETH does not end up disturbing the market dynamics. Currently, there are around 17.81 million ETH staked on the beacon chain. At current prices, around $31.6 billion worth of ETH can be unlocked over time. Successful Deployment On Goerli And Sepolia Testnets The announcement comes after Ethereum developers successfully deployed the Shapella fork on the Goerli and Sepolia testnets. While the Ethereum Foundation had stated that the last test run on the Goerli testnet was smooth, there was a delay in activation time thanks to some validators not updating their client software on time. However, Beiko stated that this would not be an issue this time around. The upgrade combines changes to the Shanghai Ethereum Virtual Machine, also known as Shanghai, and the consensus layer, Capella. It has also changed to the engine API linking the two layers bundled in it. Apart from enabling withdrawals, the Shapella upgrade also implements several other Ethereum Improvement Proposals, such as EIP-3855, EIP-3651, EIP-3860, EIP-4895m, and EIP-6049. EIPs are standards that add or designate new features and processes for Ethereum. Before the Shapella upgrade, validators had to lock 32 ETH in a smart contract on the Beacon Chain to be able to earn rewards. Previous Hard Forks Ethereum has gone through a long list of hard forks, with the latest Shapella touted as one of the most significant to date since the Merge. The Merge saw Ethereum finally make the transition from the energy-hungry Proof-of-Work consensus mechanism to Proof-of-Stake. Before the Merge, we saw the London hard fork that saw the introduction of EIP-1559. EIP-1559 introduced a base fee for users instead of the price auction method. Validators still receive a block reward and tip. However, the base fee is burned and is intended to make ETH deflationary over time. Before EIP-1559, there was Berlin, which helped optimize gas costs for specific EVM actions, while the Beacon Chain Genesis saw the first block produced on the Proof-of-Stake chain on the 1st of December 2020.
