disBalancer, a cybersecurity project based in Kyiv, is assembling the world's largest cyber army for powerful DDoS attacks on russian propaganda websites. They’re gathering 100,000 users of their Liberator app, which promises fatality to russian lying websites.

Before the war began, the disBalancer team worked on a stress tool that helps businesses make them resistant to DDoS attacks and protect crypto-related projects against fraudsters. After Russia had invaded Ukraine, the team decided to use the tool to fight Russian propaganda - Liberator.

More than 100,000 people have installed Liberator. More than 6,000 people use it continuously. The goal is to gain more than 100,000 active users to fight with the most secured propaganda websites.

Bloomberg, The Times, the Washington Post, Yahoo Finance and BBC Radio wrote about this app. The project gets huge coverage around the world.

The team is selling their $DDOS tokens to buy servers and scale the project’s infrastructure. Also, they’re giving first NFT medals to all fighters who will join the attacks. All you need to do is to download and launch the app and/or buy at least 1,000 DDOS tokens, and hold them until the war finishes. (Current price is $0.40)

The OpenSea Marketplace said Feb. 19 that it was investigating a series of Twitter posts posted by concerned platform users about an exploit against smart contracts on the OpenSea platform.

"We are actively investigating rumors of an exploit related to OpenSea smart contracts. It appears to be a phishing attack initiated outside of OpenSea. Do not click on a link outside of opensea.io."

The phishing attack on the site was triggered by the OpenSea initiative, which launched a smart contract on Feb. 18 designed to migrate users' tokens to the new contract and gradually remove inactive users on the platform. Open / Comment

2022-02-19 10:11:59 DeFi may turn to DAO management

As the DeFi ecosystem continues to suffer from criminal whales, the risks of financial loss in this sector have become increasingly apparent. Because of this, calls for regulation of decentralized finance began in 2021, and the sector began facing enforcement action last year.

KuCoin Labs predicts that as regulators approach DeFi, the industry may turn to DAO governance to reduce regulatory risk.

"If DeFi seeks to mitigate regulatory risk, DeFi's form of governance will gradually become a DAO," KuCoin Labs wrote in its annual report.

According to KuCoin Labs, a DAO that puts community interests first can exercise "true decentralization of governance." Open / Comment

2022-02-12 10:35:36 Buterin told what will happen with Ethereum

In early February, Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin spoke about the project's plans for the coming year, and answered user questions during an AMA session. According to him, three hard forks - Berlin, Altair and London - were key for the ecosystem in 2021. They set the stage for the next step, the merger.

The main goal of the project for 2022 is to merge the PoW consensus-based chain with the new PoS-based chain. This stage is called The Merge. When it's finished, there will be no PoW, only a PoS chain.

According to Vitalik, the progress of the network is currently 50%, and after consolidation and improved scalability, it will grow to 80%.

The next important task for Ethereum is to increase scalability. The network plans to use roll-up and sharding technology to reduce transaction fees to the lowest possible level. Open / Comment

2022-02-07 17:41:30 Ethereum introduces a new transaction format to reduce gas charges

Vitalik Buterin and developer Tim Beiko discussed the proposed solution to the data gas problem and current scaling issues.

"Some suggestions for adding" large binary object carry transactions" to the near-future hardforge will increase the scalability of accumulation before full segmentation is completed," Buterin said.

"[Large Binary Object Transfer Transactions]" contain a large amount of data that cannot be accessed by EVM execution, but can be accessed. The format is expected to be fully compatible with the future Danksharding specification.

Buterin claims that hardforward updates that will improve the scalability of accumulations in the near future are already in development. Open / Comment

2022-02-05 11:17:04 Aave has adopted the first crosschain management offering

The first crosschain governance offering has been adopted by the Aave (AAVE) platform, which is a decentralized finance or DeFi protocol for borrowing and lending.

"This is an important step forward in multichain governance systems," Aave said.

According to DeFi Llama, the total value locked in to Aave is about $12 billion. According to its developers, an offer executed on Aave, built on the Ethereum (ETH) network, was also sent to FxPortal on the Polygon network (MATIC). The engine then read the Ethereum data and passed it to Polygon's network for verification.

"The Aave cross-network bridge is built on a general principle so that it can be easily adapted to work with any blockchain that supports EVM and cross-network messaging," the Aave development team wrote. Open / Comment

2022-02-01 12:05:10 JPMorgan lowered its estimate of bitcoin's fair price to 38,000

JPMorgan, one of the world's largest financial institutions, has drastically changed its view on the price bitcoin will reach in the long term. While JPMorgan was optimistic last year when it estimated the number at nearly $150,000, it has lowered its estimates because of the situation the market has faced this year.

The new price of $38,000, about a quarter of the previously calculated number, was estimated in a different context regarding gold and bitcoins and market volatility. JPMorgan stated this in a note:

Our previous prediction that the bitcoin-to-gold volatility ratio would fall by about half later this year seems unrealistic. Our fair bitcoin value, based on a bitcoin-to-gold volatility ratio of about a factor of 4, would be 1/4 of $150,000, or $38,000. Open / Comment
