Popular metaverse game projects established in the last crypto cycle are accelerating their expansion. Launched at the end of 2021, Planet Mojo, after nearly two years of development during the bear market, is about to bear its first fruits in the bull market.

Having development capabilities or even just basic development knowledge is a better path to increasing the chances of receiving airdrops or, more accurately, becoming a true builder on the blockchain. This article will detail the basic development knowledge needed for a user who likes to experience chain operations.

Monad is a high-performance EVM blockchain that utilizes the Monad BFT consensus protocol and parallel execution technology to enhance scalability and transaction speed. Sei V2 is an upgraded version of the Sei network, supporting backward-compatible EVM smart contract porting and Optimistic parallelization. Eclipse is a next-generation Optimistic Layer 2 solution that integrates Neon EVM for full EVM compatibility, aiming to address Ethereum's scalability challenges. Despite skepticism, Eclipse merges the advantages of Ethereum and Solana, supporting DApp-specific Layer 3 Rollups, and has strong competitive potential. Long-term success depends on attracting developers and building a robust community.

As the cryptocurrency market rebounds, venture capitalists who have been on the sidelines are now investing in the Web3 industry. It is still low compared to past peaks, which can be attributed to 1) negative events such as Terra Luna and FTX bankruptcy, 2) the mega-trend shift from blockchain to artificial intelligence, and 3) macroeconomic deterioration.

Musk's support for Dogecoin has attracted attention. Meme coins are popular on Solana and Ethereum platforms but may be deemed securities. Despite being called 'community-driven,' those meme coins are still controlled by a small group of people. Decentralization may be achieved in the future. Advertising campaigns may lead to Meme coins being deemed securities; Coin Center questions its community-driven argument. Researchers track three key indicators of Meme coins and believe that when the number of holders reaches 3000, the project begins to attract attention. The Dogecoin Foundation is responsible for coordinating development efforts, but the largest holder still controls 22% of the circulation. A professor at Columbia Business School believes that conducting business solely based on projects claiming to be 'Dog Co.' and using Meme symbols does not avoid scrutiny from securities regulators. The SEC believes that mere purchasing behavior is not enough to constitute securities; this issue remains legally unr

This article reviews the process of IoT devices generating data, storing data, and rolling up to the blockchain. It also introduces the DePIN infrastructure platform, which can help project teams quickly launch DePIN application projects. DePIN utilizes blockchain for incentive distribution and token allocation, requiring the use of public-private keys to generate and verify physical proof of work. To prevent Sybil attacks, DePIN device manufacturers monopolize the generation authority of identity information and expose malicious behavior through social consensus. DePHY provides DID authentication services to ensure the credibility of data sources. DePHY also provides a co-processor to listen to finalized messages on the message network and perform state transitions. Both DePHY and IoTeX choose to collect data off-chain and then roll up to the chain, with DePHY focusing on decentralized data availability layers and IoTeX emphasizing binding handlers to different events.

B^2 Network is a decentralized Data Availability (DA) and storage platform that addresses data compression and verification issues using an off-chain DA network. It aims to reduce dependence on the Bitcoin main network. The B^2 Hub functions as a DA layer and off-chain verification layer, similar to Celestia, to prevent data withholding and other malicious activities. In the future, B^2 Network plans to incorporate Bitcoin Layer2 to establish a universal DA layer and data storage layer within the Bitcoin ecosystem. The B^2 Hub node validates transaction batches, while storage nodes compete for block production rights to earn incentives. The workflow of B^2 Network involves the sequencer creating new blocks, the aggregator sending them to the Prover for ZK proof generation, and the B^2 Hub node verifying and transmitting the data hash to the Bitcoin chain. As a universal DA and verification layer, B^2 Hub has the potential to enhance other Bitcoin second-layer solutions.

This article explains how the Fiat24 Banking Protocol, built on blockchain and driven by smart contracts, innovates traditional banking, finance, and payment systems in the crypto-friendly regulatory environment of Switzerland.

This article argues that Satoshi Nakamoto's vision—consensus accessible to everyone via CPU—has yet to be fully realized. The iterative mechanisms of Arweave may align more faithfully with Nakamoto's original vision, with version 2.6 marking a significant step towards fulfilling his expectations.

Meme coins are controversial, but they reflect a commitment of society to uphold digital property rights through free markets. They are not just financial phenomena but also a form of cultural expression, through which people express collective humor, dissent, or friendship. While financial nihilism reflects a distrust of the existing system, questioning traditional systems is not a moral failing but rather a challenge to existing rules. Fraudulent behaviour should be eradicated, but people should also have the right to use any medium for transactions. Meme coins serve as an important litmus test for financial freedom and hold social value.

The wheel strategy allows traders to generate consistent income while mitigating risks. Learning how this strategy works can provide an innovative trading approach and contribute to financial success.

This article takes a close look at the best crypto wallets in 2024, what makes a good wallet, the pros and cons of different wallet types, how to find the right wallet for your crypto investments, and how to keep track of your portfolio when using multiple wallets.

ArkStream Capital announces its Series A investment in IO.Net, marking a significant move in the AI and decentralized infrastructure sectors. IO.Net presents innovative solutions, harnessing encryption technology to coordinate global human computing power, positioning itself as the “new oil” of GPU computing capabilities and demonstrating its potential in the AI era.

Last year, the narrative of DePIN ignited the trend of Helium (Mobile). Although DePIN seemed unremarkable during the “Bitcoin Bull Market,” it still brought surprises to the cryptocurrency industry. At the recent ETHDenver 2024 conference, DePIN was listed as a hot track, and now the success of io.net has once again stirred up the DePIN narrative.

Solana DeFi was declared dead in 2023, but made a strong comeback in 2024, involving 100+ projects, TVL reaching $3.8 billion, and daily trading volume reaching $2.5 billion. Solana has 50 top teams. Its advantages are low fees and high throughput, attracting a large number of users and developers. Solana is connected to multiple platforms, has friendly wallets and bridges, and will launch more cross-chain applications in the future. Major DeFi projects on Solana include DEX, lending markets, and derivatives, with more innovations expected in the future. Solana’s composability and infrastructure development have allowed the DeFi ecosystem to grow rapidly.
