2021-07-06 17:54:45 Vitalik Buterin just bought NFTs with his own face?!

Today a few quite meticulous Etherscan users noticed very interesting transactions on Vitalik Buterin’s address.
Vitalik is the Ethereum co-founder and famous figure in crypto world, that just recently donated around $1 billion to India’s Covid Crypto Relief Fund AND burned 90 % of his Shiba Inu coin (SHIB) holdings, announced that he will donate the remaining 10 %. So, what we see here is Vitalik bought a few NFTs from RealCryptoPunks collection, that featured him as reimagined CryptoPunk! Cowboy, zombie, alien or beanie boy - that’s Vitalik’s face everywhere.
We’re not quite sure yet if he’s involved with the project, but we heard some rumors that stated otherwise, while there is no proof.
Either way the hype will do some good to the project in general, even boost the prices on the marketplace.
If you still don’t have any realcryptopunks the time is right to buy some http://realcryptopunks.com Open / Comment

2021-07-03 14:30:29 Balancer launches at Polygon to lower fees

Promising to "turn the index fund concept upside down," Balancer (BAL) is a DeFi project that allows users to charge fees to traders rather than portfolio managers. The protocol announced its latest development in a press release issued to CryptoPotato earlier on July 1.

The statement said Balancer "launched support for the Layer 2 Polygon solution to reduce gas costs."

Fernando Martinelli, CEO and co-founder of Balancer Labs, explained that the decision to choose Polygon was made after careful consideration of all available options. However, the growth of the project formerly known as MATIC, in terms of adopting names such as Aave and SushiSwap, was the deciding factor.

In addition to the promise of lower commissions for traders, the partnership between the two is also aimed at increasing DeFi's liquidity and making the space "accessible to everyone!" Open / Comment

2021-06-21 07:18:45 Spartan Protocol V2 contract has received enough funds to audit Code Arena

DeFi Spartan Protocol announced on Twitter that the Spartan Protocol V2 contract is ready for the Code Arena audit, and there are now enough community funds raised to audit the entire contract.

Previously, Spartan stated that Spartan Pools v1 was subject to an exploit. The team is trying to reimburse the remaining funds to eligible contributors, recover the stolen funds, and launch V2.

According to Spartan representatives, the attackers used $61 million worth of BNB to attack the funding pools through currently unknown economic loopholes and remove about $30 million from the pool. The community subsequently provided funding for the Spartan Protocol v2 bug bounty program on the smart contract competition website, code 423n4. Open / Comment
