Ethereum Classic, on the other hand, has only attained 1 100th of Ethereum. This conflict resulted in the split of the Ethereum network. The founders of Ethereum then created The Decentralized Autonomous Organization DAO a decentralized, community-funded venture capital of sorts that intended to fund the development of dApps. Additionally, the EIP 1559 upgrade will eliminate the use of other digital tokens for payment of fees in the Ethereum Network. A part of this tip is burnt, helping to improve the monetary policy of the Ethereum network as a whole. With the EIP 1559, the network sets a base fee for every transaction that is carried out on the Ethereum network giving fair opportunity to all. There have been incessant calls for an alternative to the congestion the network faces, which significantly increases Ethereum gas fees, a fee each user needs to pay for transacting on the blockchain.

  • Gold Standard for Passive Income on the Blockchain
    Anchor: Gold Standard for Passive Income on the Blockchain Nicholas Platias, Eui Joon Lee, Marco Di Maggio June 2020 Abstract Despite the proliferation of financial products, DeFi has yet to produce a savings product simple and safe enough to gain mass adoption. The price volatility of most cryptoassets makes staking unfit for the vast majority of consumers. On the other end of the spectrum, the cyclical nature of stablecoin interest rates on DeFi staples like Maker and Compound makes those protocols ill-suited for a household savings product. To address this pressing need we introduce Anchor, a savings protocol on the Terra blockchain that offers yield powered by block rewards of major Proof-of-Stake blockchains. Anchor offers a principal-protected stablecoin savings product that pays depositors a stable interest rate. It achieves this by stabilizing the deposit interest rate with block rewards accruing to assets that are used to borrow stablecoins. Anchor will thus offer DeFi’s benchmark interest rate, determined by the yield of the PoS blockchains with highest demand. Ultimately, we envision Anchor to become the gold standard for passive income on the blockchain. 1 Introduction In the past few years we have witnessed explosive growth in Decentralized Finance (DeFi). We have seen the launch of a wide range of financial applications covering a broad range of use cases, including collateralized lending (Compound), decentralized ex- changes (Uniswap) and prediction markets (Augur). Despite early success and a robust influx of brains and capital, DeFi has yet to produce a simple and convenient savings product with broad appeal outside the world of crypto natives.

  • Coinbase Explores Crypto ETF (9/6) Coinbase Spoke to Asset Manager Blackrock About Creating a Crypto ETF, Business Insider Reports
    Crypto Week in Review (9/1-9/7) Goldman Sachs CFO Denies Crypto Strategy Shift (9/6) GS CFO Marty Chavez addressed claims from an unsubstantiated report earlier this week that the firm may be delaying previous plans to open a crypto trading desk, calling the report “fake news”. Coinbase Explores Crypto ETF (9/6) Coinbase spoke to asset manager BlackRock about creating a crypto ETF, Business Insider reports. While the current status of the discussions is unclear, BlackRock is said to have “no interest in being a crypto fund issuer,” and SEC approval in the near term remains uncertain. Looking ahead, the Wednesday confirmation of Trump nominee Elad Roisman has the potential to tip the scales towards a more favorable cryptoasset approach. Twitter CEO Comments on Blockchain (9/5) Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey, speaking in a congressional hearing, indicated that blockchain technology could prove useful for “distributed trust and distributed enforcement.” The platform, given its struggles with how best to address fraud, harassment, and other misuse, could be a prime testing ground for decentralized identity solutions. Ripio Facilitates Peer-to-Peer Loans (9/5) Ripio began to facilitate blockchain powered peer-to-peer loans, available to wallet users in Argentina, Mexico, and Brazil. The loans, which utilize the Ripple Credit Network (RCN) token, are funded in RCN and dispensed to users in fiat through a network of local partners. Since all details of the loan and payments are recorded on the Ethereum blockchain, the solution could contribute to wider access to credit for the unbanked.

  • A Survey on Volatility Fluctuations in the Decentralized Cryptocurrency Financial Assets
    Journal of Risk and Financial Management Review A Survey on Volatility Fluctuations in the Decentralized Cryptocurrency Financial Assets Nikolaos A. Kyriazis Department of Economics, University of Thessaly, 38333 Volos, Greece; [email protected] Abstract: This study is an integrated survey of GARCH methodologies applications on 67 empirical papers that focus on cryptocurrencies. More sophisticated GARCH models are found to better explain the fluctuations in the volatility of cryptocurrencies. The main characteristics and the optimal approaches for modeling returns and volatility of cryptocurrencies are under scrutiny. Moreover, emphasis is placed on interconnectedness and hedging and/or diversifying abilities, measurement of profit-making and risk, efficiency and herding behavior. This leads to fruitful results and sheds light on a broad spectrum of aspects. In-depth analysis is provided of the speculative character of digital currencies and the possibility of improvement of the risk–return trade-off in investors’ portfolios. Overall, it is found that the inclusion of Bitcoin in portfolios with conventional assets could significantly improve the risk–return trade-off of investors’ decisions. Results on whether Bitcoin resembles gold are split. The same is true about whether Bitcoins volatility presents larger reactions to positive or negative shocks. Cryptocurrency markets are found not to be efficient. This study provides a roadmap for researchers and investors as well as authorities.

Preface The emergence of blockchain technology holds great promise for supply-chain organisations, perhaps as much as any new development in the industry’s infrastructure since it switched to standardised containers decades ago. The case for blockchain is stronger as the COVID-19 pandemic underscores the need for more resilient global supply chains, trusted data and an economic recovery enabled through trade digitization. At the same time, blockchain may engender a fair share of puzzlement and anxiety among supply-chain leaders unfamiliar with it as a new and unfamiliar digitisation tool. This toolkit is designed to help with the deployment journey, whether your organisation is seeking to gain increased efficiency, greater trust with counterparties, or other potential benefits offered by blockchain technology.

  • Blockchain Development Trends 2021 >Blockchain Development Trends 2021
    >Blockchain Development Trends 2021_ >Blockchain Development Trends 2021_ This report analyzes key development trends in core blockchain, DeFi and NFT projects over the course of the past 12 months The full methodology, data sources and code used for the analysis are open source and available on the Outlier Ventures GitHub repository. The codebase is managed by Mudit Marda, and the report is compiled by him with tremendous support of Aron van Ammers. 2 >The last 12 months Executive summary_ * Ethereum is still the most actively developed Blockchain protocol, followed by Cardano and Bitcoin. * Multi-chain protocols like Polkadot, Cosmos and Avalanche are seeing a consistent rise in core development and developer contribution. * In the year of its public launch, decentralized file storage projectFilecoin jumped straight into the top 5 of most actively developed projects. * Ethereum killers Tron, EOS, Komodo, and Qtum are seeing a decrease in core de- velopment metrics. * DeFi protocols took the space by storm with Ethereum being the choice of the underlying blockchain and smart contracts platform. They saw an increase in core development and developer contribution activity over the year which was all open sourced. The most active projects are Maker, Gnosis and Synthetix, with Aave and Bancor showing the most growth. SushiSwap and Yearn Finance, both launched in 2020, quickly grew toward and beyond the development activity and size of most other DeFi protocols. * NFT and Metaverse projects like collectibles, gaming, crypto art and virtual worlds saw a market-wide increase in interest, but mostly follow a closed source devel- opment approach. A notable exception is Decentraland, which has development activity on the levels of some major blockchain technologies like Stellar and Al- gorand, and ahead of some of the most popular DeFi protocols like Uniswap and Compound.
