2022-09-15 21:00:03 ​​Tether USDT stablecoin goes live on Near Protocol to boost DeFi presence.

Tether USDT is now live on 11 blockchain networks, including the Near Network, Polygon, Kusama, Ethereum, Omni and others.

Major stablecoin issuer Tether Operations Limited continues expanding integrations with diverse blockchain networks, launching the Tether (USDT) stablecoin on the Near Network.

Tether USDT is now live on the Near Network, a smart contract-enabled blockchain platform designed for decentralized applications, Tether officially announced on Monday.

The integration of Tether into the Nea ecosystem is a major milestone in the firm’s commitment to increase its presence in decentralized finance (DeFi) ecosystems, the firm said. “It will alleviate the potential adverse effects associated with market volatility and accelerate scalability for its users,” the announcement added.

The Nea Network is the eleventh blockchain that is currently available for Tether USDT. The stablecoin is now also live on chains like Polygon, Kusama, Ethereum, Solana, Algorand, EOS, Liquid Network, Omni, Tron and Bitcoin Cash’s Standard Ledger Protocol.

Launched in 2014, Tether was originally launched and issued on the Bitcoin (BTC) blockchain via the Omni Layer protocol, a solution used for building and trading digital assets on top of Bitcoin.

The addition of Near Network to the Tether’s ecosystem comes amid Near hitting a major milestone of 700 projects now building on Near, including the Aurora Network and the Octopus Network. As of July, the Near network’s daily volumes averaged between 300,000 to 400,000 transactions.

The Near Foundation also announced on Monday the launch of a $100 million venture capital fund and venture lab targeting Web3 development. The Swiss nonprofit launched the VC fund in cooperation with Caerus, a newly launched investment firm founded by IMG vice president Nathan Pillai.

“The NEAR ecosystem has witnessed historical growth this year and we believe Tether will be essential in helping it continue to thrive,” Tether chief technical officer Paolo Ardoino said. Open / Comment

2022-09-13 20:00:06 ​ PLUTO, the new reserve currency protocol on Waves, is getting more diverse!

Now you can issue PLUTO tokens by providing WAVES for the protocol’s treasury. The treasury is what makes Pluto resistant to bear markets (FYI, it is happening right now).

In a nutshell, PLUTO’s price can’t go too low for too long but always goes up long-term. From the introduction of minting for WAVES, the price has already went up 40%!

Once you get PLUTO, consider staking without any lock-up or taking part in onboarding with APY up to 678%!

So here’s how you can get your hands on PLUTO in exchange for some WAVES

1. Connect your wallet at http://pluto.gold
2. Go to "Issue PLUTO"
3. Select $WAVES as an LP token for issuing PLUTO
4. Set the amount, press "Issue" and sign
5. Note that there is an 11-day lock-up period for the issued tokens Open / Comment

2022-09-12 20:00:05 ​​Florida govt warns against auto warranty scammers asking crypto payments.

Regardless of the methods used by scammers to contact potential victims, the FDACS newsletter highlighted five red flags that can help citizens identify and evade possible scams.

The Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) issued a warning sharing insights into identifying robocall scam marketing auto warranties, which includes being asked to pay for the services via gift cards and cryptocurrencies.

Consumer complaints against increasing robocall scams — wherein scammers use prerecorded calls to market and sell fraudulent services — led the Enforcement Bureau to order phone companies to avoid carrying robocall traffic.

Regardless of the methods used by scammers to contact potential victims, the FDACS newsletter highlighted five red flags that indicate scams.

Stressing on some of the go-to payment methods often being recommended by the scammers, the announcement read:

“Payment Type: If you are asked to pay with a gift card or cryptocurrency, it’s a scam.”

In addition to asking Florida residents to refrain from making crypto payments, the FDACS reiterated that no government officials would ask for personal information, such as their Social Security or credit card numbers, adding that “Only scammers will require one of those kinds of payment, and once you send the money, you probably won’t get it back.”

Although the newsletter mentioned the impossibility of tracking down crypto funds from hackers, numerous corporations, including Velodrome and Curve Finance, have successfully recovered stolen funds — thanks to the immutable nature of blockchain technology.

On Sept. 5, United States congressman Brad Sherman — a well-known crypto skeptic — acknowledged the rapid growth of the crypto ecosystem, claiming that banning cryptocurrencies was no longer an option.

Sherman stated that political donations and crypto lobbying make blanket banning cryptocurrencies impossible, adding that:

“We didn’t ban it at the beginning because we didn’t realize it was important, and we didn’t ban it now because there’s too much money and power behind it.” Open / Comment

2022-09-09 20:00:06 ​​DeFi protocol token NFD crashes by 99% after a flash loan attack.

Flash loans allow users to borrow a high amount of assets without having to provide any upfront collateral, this is often used by miscreants to launch attacks on DeFi protocols.

New Free DAO, a decentralized finance (DeFi) protocol, faced a series of flash loan attacks on Thursday, resulting in a reported loss of $1.25 million. The price of the native token has dropped by 99% in the wake of the attack.

Unlike normal loans, several DeFi protocols offer flash loans that allow users to borrow large amounts of assets without upfront collateral deposits. The only condition is that the loan must be returned in a single transaction within a set time period. However, this feature is often exploited by malicious adversaries to gather large amounts of assets to launch costly exploitations targeting DeFi protocols.

Blockchain security firm CertiK alerted the crypto community on Thursday about the 99% price slippage of the NFD token due to a flash loan attack. The attacker reportedly deployed an unverified contract and called the function “addMember()” to add itself as a member. The attacker later executed three flash loan attacks with the assistance of the unverified contract.

The attacker first borrowed 250 Wrapped BNB (wBNB) worth $69,825 via flash loan and swapped all of them for the native token NFD. The contract was then used to create multiple attack contracts to claim airdrop rewards repeatedly. The attacker then swapped all the airdrop rewards for wBNB benefiting 4481 BNB.

Out of the 4481 BNB, the attacker returned the borrowed loan of 250 BNB and swapped 2,000 BNB for 550,000 BSC-USD, the Binance-Peg token of the blockchain. Later, the attacker moved 400 BNB to the popular coin mixer service Tornado Cash.

CertiK also notified that the hacker behind the flash loan attack on NFD was related to those who exploited Neorder (N3DR) in May earlier this year. Later, another blockchain security firm Beosin told Cointelegraph that the attackers behind both the exploits could be the same. Open / Comment

2022-09-06 20:00:09 ​​Gaming makes up over half of blockchain industry usage, DappRadar.

The gaming sector accounts for nearly 51% of the activity in the blockchain industry with hundreds of millions in transactions, according to August data.

New data from DappRadar suggests that gaming remains a vital organ to the blockchain industry. According to the report, the gaming sector accounts for approximately 50.51% of industry usage month-over-month (MoM), as per August numbers.

While overall the numbers are a good indicator for the sector, it is a decrease from the previous month. Last month, the gaming sector made up approximately 57.30% of industry usage (MoM).

The data from DappRadar comes from the daily Unique Active Wallets (UAW). According to the surveyor, there are around 847,230 gaming-related UAW active daily with nearly $698 million in transactions.

Gaming has long been touted as a gateway to the world of Web3, blockchain, and crypto. Another recent survey from ChainPlay highlighted that of 2,428 surveyed GameFi investors, 75% said they joined the space solely on the premise of gaming.

It’s not just GameFi investors that believe in the sector as a proponent for mass adoption. In a panel at Korean Blockchain Week 2022, experts said GameFi and crypto naturally go together. Moreover, there was speculation that the majority of games will have an in-game crypto economy within the next few years.

Long-time legacy gaming companies in the traditional gaming sector also have their eyes on Web3. The head of Xbox even stated his optimism toward metaverse gaming, but with some caution toward play-to-earn (P2E) crypto games.

According to research from the cybersecurity auditing firm Hacken, many projects in the GameFi industry don’t prioritize security and are overdue for a major hack. The Ronin token bridge from Axie Infinity was one of crypto’s largest hacks with a $600 million loss in tokens back in March.

Recently in an analysis of 60 Web3-based games, it was found that 40% of users were automated bots or multiple accounts coming from one single entity. Open / Comment

2022-09-03 20:00:05 ​​Buterin and Armstrong reflect on proof-of-stake shift as Ethereum Merge nears.

Two influential figures in the cryptocurrency space unpack their individual journeys to understanding the promise of proof-of-stake as The Merge approaches for Ethereum.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin and Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong believe that a gradual mind shift and important community contributions led to their backing of Ethereum’s upcoming move from a proof-of-work (PoW) to aproof-of-stake (PoS) consensus.

The two industry titans joined Coinbase protocol specialist Viktor Bunin on the Around the Block podcast for an enlightening discussion centered on The Merge, which is set to take place in mid-September 2022.

Buterin reflected on his history of considering proof-of-stake as a potential consensus mechanism for the Ethereum blockchain, which was initially met with skepticism due to a number of unsolved problems that made it seemingly unviable.

According to the Ethereum co-founder, one of the project's first blog posts in 2014 proposed an algorithm called slasher, which introduced the concept wherein a node would be penalized for voting for contradicting actions:

“This was my attempt at making inroads in solving what proof-of-stake critics call the "nothing-at-stake" problem. In proof-of-work if you want to build on top of two blocks you have to do double the work but in proof-of-stake you can just sign as many things as you want.”
Buterin believed that introducing an explicit penalty for signing contradictory actions would be a viable option. Research continued through 2014 to explore the security assumptions that Ethereum would have to rely on with PoS and if it could be more secure than PoW by making slashing penalties eat into staked deposits rather than staking rewards.

Buterin then reflected on a concept introduced at the end of that year called “weak subjectivity.” He explained that for a PoS network to benefit from the full security guarantee of the mechanism, a node has to be online at fairly regular intervals.

This could be every week, month, or year, with longer time periods becoming more inconvenient for stakers from a liquidity perspective. Open / Comment
