Seperti biasa, kami menyambut baik setiap komentar atau feedback untuk membantu kami dalam meningkatkan laporan ini untuk keuntungan Anda . Daniel Cheng, Editor Kami harap Anda menikmati laporan ini! [email protected] 4 Catatan Founder: 2018 adalah tahun yang sulit bagi mereka yang terlibat dalam dunia aset kripto. Setelah kenaikan besar pada 2017, harga aset kripto tidak bisa mempertahankan tren naiknya dan mengalami koreksi besar sepanjang tahun. Harga untuk sebagian besar aset kripto turun sebanyak 70% sampai 95% dari harga tertingginya (All-Time-High). Ketika pasar menurun sepanjang tahun, kami melihat banyak perusahaan blockchain berjuang secara finansial dan harus melakukan PHK. Sebagai contoh, Bitmain memecat 1.500 staf yang mewakili 50% dari tenaga kerja mereka. Steemit Inc. mengalami penurunan persentase lebih besar dan mem-PHK 70% karyawan mereka. Kami melihat perusahaan lain seperti Consensys, Kraken, Coinfloor, Status, dan Po.et mengumumkan PHK karena mereka harus merampingkan operasi mereka di bear market.. Semester 1 2018 menandai periode puncak kegembiraan ICO dengan EOS menyelesaikan ICO selama setahun, mengumpulkan $4,2 miliar. Sepanjang tahun, pasar ICO berjuang dan kita mengakhiri tahun dengan banyak proyek yang berjuang untuk mencapai nilai hard cap mereka. Kami juga melihat komunitas besar mengalami perpecahan, yang kali ini melibatkan Bitcoin Cash. Tahun 2018 juga terlihat perkembangan kuat di stablecoin, aplikasi desentralisasi (dApps), Security Token Offering, masternode, dan Token Non-Fungible. Kami telah bekerja dengan mitra kami untuk menyampaikan beberapa wawasan mendalam dalam Laporan Akhir Tahun ini. Sementara harga sebagian besar aset kripto menurun, kami di CoinGecko melihat pertumbuhan yang kuat dalam jumlah koin baru, ICO, dan bursa yang diluncurkan pada 2018. Kami melacak 2.050 koin baru, 2.703 ICO baru, dan 229 bursa baru. Koin, ICO, dan pertukaran yang baru dibuat ini merepresentasikan pertumbuhan terbesar dalam sejarah dunia kripto dari tahun-ke-tahun. Secara internal, kami mengembangkan tim kami menjadi 10 orang dan meluncurkan banyak fitur baru. Kami bangga dengan peluncuran API developer gratis kami, aplikasi mobile di iOS dan Android, dan buletin pasar harian kami. Adalah keyakinan kami bahwa data kripto harus didemokratisasi dan kami bertujuan membuatnya dapat diakses oleh semua. Kami harap laporan ini bermanfaat karena kita belajar dan tumbuh bersama di tahun 2019. Bagikan laporan ini kepada teman-teman Anda dan jangan ragu untuk mengirimkan saran kepada kami untuk peningkatan melalui email di Bobby Ong TM Lee [email protected]. Semoga kita melihat pertumbuhan yang lebih baik di industri aset kripto pada tahun 2019.

  • COTW: Punks & Dunks: NFT Volumes Soar
    COTW: Punks & Dunks: NFT Volumes Soar After a frenzied but brief start to the year, NFTs have come roaring back in recent weeks, with record sales volumes, soaring corporate and venture investment, and a general re-entry into the cultural zeitgeist. We review NFT basics, analyze recent trends, and posit what the future may hold in this week’s Chart of the Week. ● NFT Overview: Fungibility is the characteristic of mutual interchangeability, where one is indifferent as to which exact unit one has, and examples include US dollars, gold, and airline points. Non-fungible items, by contrast, are those that are solely unique and therefore not freely interchangeable, such as an original painting, land, and baseball cards. Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are unique digital assets that are stored on a blockchain (well, technically an ID number in a smart contract that points to the URL of a JSON metadata file is what is stored on the blockchain). As blockchain-based digital representations of ownership, NFTs bear typical cryptocurrency benefits, such as immutability, provable scarcity and provenance, standardization and interoperability, and programmability, and they make digital assets as real and as permanent as objects in the physical world. NFTs can represent ownership in unique items of value like digital art, domain names, intellectual property, and event tickets, can be employed in a variety of use cases like collectibles, gaming, media, music, and finance, and in the future will usher in new paradigms around content, ownership, value, and exchange. ● NFT History: Developers first began experimenting with NFTs through colored coins on the Bitcoin network in 2012, followed by Rare Pepe illustrations a few years later.

  • NFT Yearly Report 2020, Fresh from the Oven!
    NON-FUNGIBLE TOKENS YEARLY REPORT 2020 FREE EDITION MARKET RESEARCH. TRENDS DECRYPTION. PROJECT REVIEW. EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT THE NFT ECOSYSTEM FOREWORDS The NFT Yearly Report 2020, fresh from the oven! The purpose of this report is to provide an overarching and detailed view of the Non-Fungible Token ecosystem during 2020. The exponential growth within the sector has been particularly impressive, especially given that the Crypto bear market was in full force during most of the early stages of development. There is little doubt that the loyal and tight knit groups who initially evolved around various NFT blockchain projects have since seen the contents of their wallets dramatically increase in value as the ecosystem evolved and NFT projects began to attract more and more outside and mainstream interest. This report is not meant for Non-Fungible experts but to help everyone in or outside the Non- Fungible Tokens ecosystem to better understand what is going on. What is the potential? Why should you care about NFT? 2020 has been an unprecedented year for most of the world's population, with many challenges to face, from a global pandemic and lockdown to political upheavals, riots and not to mention catastrophic natural disasters… we’ve had it all! In stark contrast and perhaps partially due to such turbulent global events, interest and investment in virtual economies and digital assets has boomed, more than ever seen before. Within the Non-Fungible Token ecosystem individual sectors have seen success, Art, Gaming and Digital Assets have all gained remarkable traction during 2020 with this once niche and experimental industry maturing into a force to be reckoned with.

  • Blockchain, Crypto and Nfts Are the Risky ‘Next Generation of Value Creation’ in Sports
    4/3/2021 Blockchain, Bitcoin and NFTs are the risky 'next generation of value creation' in sports – The Athletic Blockchain, crypto and NFTs are the risky ‘next generation of value creation’ in sports By Bill Shea (/author/bill-shea/) Mar 30, 2021 135 Joining terms such as Wins Above Replacement and Player Efficiency Rating in the sports lexicon are phrases such as non-fungible token (NFT), blockchain and cryptocurrency. The language of Silicon Valley entered the sports industry this year on the back of the white- hot sports collectibles market (https://theathletic.com/2428346/2021/03/05/sports-cards- tom-brady-luka-doncic-andre-the-giant/) because of the enormous sums of money involved. Why? Simple: In an era with little or no in-game fan revenue because of pandemic health- safety protocols, concepts such as NFTs and blockchain are viewed by leagues, teams, owners and athletes as opportunities to make more money. https://theathletic.com/2484646/2021/03/30/bitcoin-crypto-nfts-ethereum-sports-business/ 1/45 4/3/2021 Blockchain, Bitcoin and NFTs are the risky 'next generation of value creation' in sports – The Athletic Fans can expect to see a growing wave of NFT promotions — would you value a bobblehead that exists solely on your iPhone? — and the possibility that future re-sale of tickets will occur on a blockchain that allows the team to get another cut of money.
