INTERNET CITY, DUBAI, 30th January, 2023, ChainwireVenture capital and blockchain accelerator LBank Labs has revealed the unorthodox strategy that guides its investment decisions. The investment arm of LBank Exchange was established with a 100 million USDT fund in late 2022. According to LBank Labs, its investment thesis can be summarized as “Platform, Standard, Ecosystem.” Since being spun out of LBank in October with a $100 million treasury, LBank Labs has been scouting for viable blockchain startups, entrepreneurs, and communities to finance in order to facilitate wider blockchain growth and crypto adoption. Czhang Lin, angel investor and key member of the LBank Labs board, has disclosed that the crypto VC will roll with the slogan “The Other Angle,” explaining: “It embodies our vision concerning the industry and blockchain investment. We come equipped with a different outlook for identifying promising projects and the entire ecosystem as a whole.” Labs’ unique investing thesis, also known as the “Platform, Standard, Ecosystem” proposition, diverges with traditional views on the blockchain industry. These typically divide the space into either a tech-centered paradigm (layers), supply-chain fields (mining, exchanges, financial products, media), or sectors (DeFi, GameFi, NFTs). According to Czhang Lin: “True extraction of value lies in startups that have the potential to deliver a game-changing platform and establish an industry or legal standard and that can bloom into a lively ecosystem hosting third-party applications. Such platforms should include a web3 ideology fit for open collaboration, where users and projects can interact quickly.” The crypto pioneer believes that during future bull runs, smart money will flow to startups who manage to tick these cross-sector boxes within the industry. Besides venture capitalism, LBank Labs will also commit to increasing educational awareness around blockchain tech, cryptocurrencies, and DeFi in general. On January 13, the blockchain research department of the Seoul-based Chung-Ang university signed a MoU with LBank on blockchain cooperation. Budding researchers and entrepreneurs will be able to intern at the exchange and gain access to incubation for their startups. About LBank LBank is one of the top crypto exchanges, established in 2015. It offers specialized financial derivatives, expert asset management services, and safe crypto trading to its users. The platform holds over 7 million users from more than 210 regions across the world.

Ethereum-based Layer-2 protocol, Optimism has outperformed Arbitrum in transaction volume since mid-December. Optimism Token Takes The Win The transaction volume on both protocols has undergone a distinct divergence since last month. Even though both had been on a steady upward climb since the beginning of last year, Arbitrum had always maintained its lead in transaction activity. However, this changed towards the end of the year, when Optimism outpaced Arbitrum and that too quite significantly. The reason behind this divergence and the increased transactions is the Optimism token, which has been one of the leading performing tokens across Layer 1 and Layer 2 protocols. With liquid staking derivatives such as Lido and Rocket Pool performing well, investors are looking at more ways of gaining exposure to Ethereum. Since Arbitrum does not have its own token, it got left behind in the race. Other tokens in the Optimism ecosystem have also benefited from this increased interest and experienced gains of over 200% since the beginning of the year. GMX Drops, Synthetix Grows Furthermore, another factor contributing to the increase in Optimism transaction volumes is the drop in the use of GMX. This decentralized perpetual futures exchange is built on Arbitrum and has experienced a 30% drop in use since December 10. On the other hand, there has been an increase in activity on the Synthetix perpetual exchange, which is built on Optimism, since December 20. Additional protocols like Kwenta that are built using Synthetix on Optimism have also experienced a sudden spike in transaction volume. L2 Protocols Need Reinvention Experts have opined that both the L2 protocols of Arbitrum and Optimism are some of the most important actors in the Ethereum ecosystem as they pave the way for scalability and increased throughput while maintaining the integrity of the Ethereum chain. According to Marom Yigy, the VP of Blockchain at LEAP (Web3-based sports-discovery and endorsement platform), the future of Layer-2 protocols depends on how well they reinvent themselves. She said, “Layer 2 solutions are most often workarounds to bottlenecks on the Ethereum network; they won't disappear at this step of the merge because gas prices aren't expected to drop. That will likely change once sharding is introduced, because sharding itself solves the issue L2s were created to fix. By then, L2s might be less popular—though the big ones will find new ways of reinventing themselves.” Arbitrum’s last significant upgrade took place on August 31, 2022, when the protocol launched its Nitro upgrade. Since then, Optimism has understood the challenge and raised the bar by introducing its own tokens. Arbitrum needs to step up the reinvention game if it wants to regain its former lead.

Cointelegraph will be on the ground as prominent figures from the cryptocurrency and blockchain space converge on Davos during the World Economic Forum.

Big data, AI, and cryptocurrencies have all converged in recent years to make the financial sector much more intricate and fast-moving than it ever was. With a CAGR of 11.1% from 2021 to 2028, the worldwide cryptocurrency industry is forecast to grow rapidly, reaching USD 1,902.5 mln by 2028. As stated in their research titled "Cryptocurrency Market," published by Fortune Business Insight in 2020, the market was worth USD 826.6 million. The significance of confidence in traditional institutions is reflected in differences in bitcoin valuations across countries, and new financing mechanisms make it possible for more entrepreneurs to begin enterprises. Crypto and AI, when used appropriately, can also assist in eliminating prejudice from recruiting and other crucial procedures. However, with these prospects come new obstacles that will necessitate society having tough dialogues, the consequences of which will influence the future of economics. Let's look at it with a level head. Access to Post-Virus World The sheer quantity and level of detail of the financial data that is currently available to financial institutions are believed by many to have far-reaching ramifications. In the past, for instance, "subprime" communities were all seen as relatively dangerous, which made it challenging for financial institutions to extend credit to those individuals in such populations. As a consequence of this, financial lending institutions mitigated the risk associated with their operations by offering an average rate of interest to the general populace. By combining ubiquitous access to extensive data with sophisticated algorithms, lenders may better discern "good" peers from "bad" peers in the lending industry today. Those who are regarded as having a lower credit risk are put at a disadvantage as a result of this, even as it lowers the cost of financing for those who are regarded as having a superior credit risk. A negative credit score may be a consequence of imprudent financial decisions made by a person or corporation; however, there is also the possibility that another big issue played a substantial part in the situation. A Progressive Square One For Startups Data-driven technologies produced by the fusion of crypto and AI are not only making it easier to develop groundbreaking new goods but also making it more affordable to launch a company from scratch. Many of the once-fixed expenditures associated with launching a new technology enterprise are now movable targets, thanks to the development of available-to-rent cloud-based services. Specifically, the launch of crypto and AI supporting trading bots like Bitcoin prime has further eased out the financial plans for newbies who have just stepped into the market. As all one has to do is sign up with it and take worthy financial suggestions or better investments while conducting transactions in different currencies, securely. Banking AI targeting algorithms will require clear wording from the developers. Will we now penalize people if they suffer an unlucky shock, such as being sick? The magnitude of this problem is enormous. The reduced cost of getting a company off the ground coincides with developments that make risk management easier for venture capitalists (VCs). Prior to the last five or ten years, the typical venture capitalist would spend months conducting due diligence before making an investment in a firm. Today's venture capitalists are more inclined to make multiple, smaller investments in a wide variety of firms, some of which may provide products that are identical. To further streamline the process, venture capitalists may make their initial investments in the form of "convertible notes" that are pre-set to convert in the case of a subsequent fundraising round. This method allows venture capitalists to spread their risk among a larger pool of prospective entrepreneurs operating in the same industry by allowing market data to determine which startups ultimately succeed. Potentially substantial changes may result from these alterations: Women and people of color, who historically have been denied equitable access to financial resources, will make up a sizable portion of the next wave of entrepreneurs. Seeing Global Crypto-Sector With A New Lens In 2019, Bitcoin and other digital currencies were traded by more nearly 50 million investors globally. Researches show that there are substantial variances in the value of cryptocurrencies across markets, with the discrepancies being based on the underlying institutional dynamics including public attitudes in each region. For instance, the daily average difference here between the United States with Korea was above 15% and occasionally approached 40% from December 2017 to February 2018. So why is there a "kimchi premium," exactly? Limited capital movement across countries is a major contributor to the large pricing discrepancies, as it reduces the availability of arbitrage opportunities. To put it plainly, it's not possible to make a profit by making a low purchase in NYC and a high sale in Seoul. Surveys indicate that people in nations with less developed financial markets place a higher value on Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. A higher level of confidence in the monetary system tends to reduce the perceived value of cryptocurrencies. Summing Up Each passing day sees the relation between crypto and AI become more dynamic and more efficient than humans at performing mundane activities; the question now is whether or not AI will eventually replace people in every industry. That is simply not the case. Technology and its human complement are not antagonistic. Though it may shake up the status quo at first, eventually it will help pave the way for whole new possibilities. Companies today need to adopt a new culture in which innovation and lifelong education are valued highly. This paves the way for more flexibility, adaptation, and development. What the fiscal tremors of 2020 will do to the crypto market, AI, plus big data is still unknown. But one thing is sure: as long as there are innovators, the velocity of change will only quicken.

INTERNET CITY, Dubai, 12th January, 2023, ChainwireLBank Co-Founder Johnason Chan has shared a bullish thesis for 2023, tipping the crypto industry to reach new milestones this year. Chan predicts a resurgence in the NFT market, further growth of Web3 through layer 2 solutions and the convergence of TradFi and DeFi. “Web3 will be a big opportunity for the next wave of blockchain applications, but more solid blockchain platforms are required to host them”, says Chan. The exchange boss claims that blockchains like Ethereum will continue to play a central role in the evolution of Web3, but layer 2 solutions will help new apps to blossom. “As more layer 2 technologies mature and infrastructure is built, it will bring new opportunities for the development of Web3.” Elsewhere, Chan believes NFTs will enjoy a resurgence in 2023, saying: “NFTs still provide new opportunities for underlying assets and blockchain expressions. Currently, NFTs mainly consist of assets for chain games. But they can be used to express so much more. I believe they could be an important force to kickstart the next bull run in this market.” LBank’s co-founder also expects GameFi to flourish in 2023, asserting: “The development of chain games may usher in completely new opportunities for the video game industry. As more institutions and game studios enter this new market, developers will be able to create more products in 2023.” The penultimate prediction from Johnason Chan is that decentralized finance will see a resurgence, with some of this growth coming from the traditional finance (TradFi) industry. “Traditional finance will definitely find a way to implement some of these innovations. We could even see products developed by institutional players being launched on DeFi platforms one day,” the LBank Co-Founder says. Finally, Chan tips digital identities to capture attention in 2023, saying: “Digital identity caught more attention last year but we’ve yet to see any killer applications utilizing this technology. I expect new DID use cases and apps to flourish this year, making it easier for web2 users to start experiencing Web3.” Start Trading Now.

TFL claimed that the airdrop receiver refused to return the funds, while the user claimed that he was on the verge of settlement with the firm when the former decided to run a smear campaign.

The crypto lending platform Genesis is considering filing for bankruptcy and has laid off around 30% of its staff. Genesis On The Verge Of Bankruptcy? Less than six months after its first round of layoffs, Genesis, has been forced to cut loose around 30% of its workforce. Moreover, the word around the blockchain is that the lending platform is considering filing for bankruptcy. A spokesperson for Genesis has confirmed the news, saying, "As we continue to navigate unprecedented industry challenges, Genesis has made the difficult decision to reduce our headcount globally." According to other sources, the company is working with investment bank Moelis & Co to evaluate its options. FTX Contagion Spreads The biggest blow to the industry this year was the utter destruction of the FTX ecosystem. Not only did the major crypto exchange crash down dramatically, but it also took with it several significant institutions and crypto firms. For example, crypto-focused bank Silvergate Capital was also affected heavily by the FTX crash and has announced that it will slash its headcount by 40%. After the year crypto has had, Genesis would not be the first crypto firm to go down the bankruptcy route. Crypto lender BlockFi was the first to follow FTX into Chapter 11 bankruptcy filing. The market downturn has forced the hands of many crypto executives to cut costs in their respective firms by trimming the workforce fat. In many cases, declaring bankruptcy is the only option left. Genesis In Trouble Genesis has been treading troubled waters lately, thanks to its association with the FTX ecosystem. The company’s interim CEO, Derar Islim, penned a client letter in which he wrote, “We believe we can arrive at a solution. As a key element in this process, we have made significant progress in refining our business plans for Genesis’ client offerings. This includes reducing costs and driving efficiencies in all our business lines.' In November 2022, the company closed down withdrawals. Just a week before this, it was seeking a billion-dollar emergency loan. Both these events have led to the most recent skirmish with one of the founders of the Gemini crypto exchange, Cameron Winklevoss. The latter has accused Genesis and the Digital Currency Group (DCG) of acting in bad faith. Winklevoss penned an open letter to DCG CEO Barry Silbert, claiming that the latter has been evading all attempts at consensual resolution since Genesis owes members of Gemini Earn around $900 million.

The Democratic Party is set to return over $1 million of its funding to victims of the now-defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX, according to a report. The report, which was first published by The Verge, states that three of the top Democratic campaign organisations will be setting aside funds sent to them in contributions from Sam Bankman-Fried, ex-CEO of the collapsed FTX cryptocurrency exchange. Given that SBF has now been arrested following the alleged fraudulent activities that led to FTX losing around $8 billion in investor funds, the pressure has been on the Democratic party to give back some of the funds that it received in contributions. A spokesperson for the Democratic National Committee (DNC) said: “Given the allegations around potential campaign finance violations by Bankman-Fried, we are setting aside funds in order to return the $815,000 in contributions since 2020,” They added: “We will return as soon as we receive proper direction in the legal proceedings.” Over the last two year SBF has donated large sums of money to US political parties. Around $815,000 in contributions have been paid to the Democratic Party since 2020, but what is generally known is that according to SBF, he also donated a similar amount to the Republican party. He is reported to have told crypto blogger and youtuber Tiffany Fong shortly after the FTX bankruptcy that he contributed to the Republican party but said that he did it covertly because “Reporters freak the **** out if you donate to a republican.” Disclaimer: This article is provided for informational purposes only.
