Making the Case for People’s Money

Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are now challenging the hegemony of the U.S. dollar and other fiat currencies.

In May 2020, a historic event cut the daily... incoming supply of Bitcoin from 1800 Bitcoin per day to 900 Bitcoin per day—a sort of quantitative hardening—opposite of what the Fed is doing by printing trillions of dollars. Central banks, in simplest terms, create money out of nothing. They create “fake money” and loan it to governments.

Bitcoin, on the other hand, is completely decentralized meaning that nobody can manipulate the market and there is not any single point of failure. It will be interesting to see how long the Central Banks will tolerate the competition from cyber money before there is a showdown.

Host Robert Kiyosaki and guest Anthony Pompliano examine the value of Bitcoin in the current economy and how it may create a quasi gold standard.

A hacker allegedly behind a spate of Twitter account hacks on Wednesday gained access to a Twitter “admin” tool on the company’s network that allowed them to hijack high-profile Twitter accounts to spread a cry...ptocurrency scam, according to a person with direct knowledge of the incident.

Interesting.

unagii is the brainchild of the StakeWith.Us team. It is a single platform connecting users to digital assets, in a smarter way.

My Co-Founders and I imagine an internet where anyone can have easy acce...ss to trustless financial systems. Yet, current tools and services are such a hassle to interact with multi-layered processes. Even for us as seasoned users of cryptocurrency.

So we decided to build a smarter solution ourselves.

In the background

As a staking infrastructure firm at StakeWith.Us, I'm incredibly proud of our journey. Over the past few months, our team has been heads-down building up unagii - from speccing out the product and iterating on a fresh interface, to tackling critical bugs and fixes.

However, in recent weeks, we've had to reorient our ship so we can focus on a mightier sail towards the sea of yields. And that means a reprioritization on our launch road map.

Since February 2019, we've been building secure and highly reliable blockchain infrastructures validating for multiple proven blockchain projects. To date, we have a growing number of retail and institutional clients globally.

With this growth, we'll double down our services on both fronts, where unagii focuses on serving our retail users - not only on staking, but in lending, pooling, and so much more. Anticipate a whole new suite of upcoming products and services and all while retaining full asset ownership. This structure allows us to support our current staking users better, capture a broader new audience, and will enable us to explore plenty of growth opportunities in Decentralized Finance (DeFi).

In times like COVID-19 crisis, commodity trading companies are especially susceptible wild swings of commodity prices. The companies that emerged as winners are the ones that hedged their portfolios effectively... with commodity hedges.

The commodity markets are made up primarily of speculators and hedgers. While speculators are all about taking on risk in the markets to make money, the function of hedgers is to reduce their risk of losing money. A hedger is an individual or company that is involved in a business that is associated with a particular commodity, either as producers or buyers.

Hedging is simply a form of insurance. It is essentially a means of securing yourself so that in the event of those bad incidents that are part of life, the effects on your finances are greatly reduced. Hedging is not limited to the trading and investment world as it occurs every day. Take, for instance, when you take insurance on your car or house, you are hedging against unforeseen disasters that might negatively affect your house or car. Professionals and institutions in the financial market, like portfolio managers, individual investors, and corporations also use hedging techniques to reduce their exposure to various risks.

How Commodity Hedges Works?
---------------------------------------------

However, hedging in that field is not as simple as paying an insurance company a fee every year for coverage because mitigating investment risk means strategically using financial instruments or market strategies to offset the risk of adverse price movements. In this sphere of business, investors hedge one investment by making a trade-in another. Indeed, they can hedge against a plethora of things: stocks, commodity prices, currency and interest rates, among others.

April 2020 crude oil demand fell to 8.0 MMb/d due to the first wave of Coronavirus, and many market analysts have started to model how the second Coronavirus wave will look like for the global crude oil market....

Since April 2020, the crude price differentials have narrowed as drivers and freight demand have jumped higher. The super contango crude spreads that we have witnessed back in May 2020 have since flattened, and forward price curves are flat and with slightly backwardation patterns. The less contango the curves usually translated to lower freight costs, and that’s good news to logistics sectors and even broader sections like eCommerce and manufacturers.

The crude market looks fairly balanced with physical and financial Brent differentials narrows based on ICE indexes at the time of this writing. However, with the United States COVID cases on the rise and WTI fluctuating between $38 and $40. It will be interesting to watch the weekly crude and petroleum inventory levels in the coming weeks.

Most market analysts already factored in a high chance of a coronavirus, the second wave hitting the global market starting as early as November 2020, peak at February 2021, and starting to recover around May 2021, which follows the same pattern as the first coronavirus first wave.

Orion Protocol solves some of the largest issues in DeFi by aggregating the liquidity of the entire crypto market into one decentralized platform - pulling from every major centralized exchange, decentralized e...xchange, and swapping pool.

Building on the most advanced liquidity aggregator ever developed, Orion’s stack of solutions address critical issues faced by businesses and consumers in the space: whether traders, exchanges, blockchains or crypto projects.

In this content series, we’ll be explaining each of our DeFi solutions in more detail: from their respective audiences and the problems they solve, through to how they work and their token utility.

ORION ENTERPRISE TRADE WIDGET
THE PROBLEM: Even non-crypto companies see that blockchain is the future. The issue is the friction caused when getting a project’s token to enterprise companies in order to pay for the project’s services.

When a non-crypto client wants to use a crypto project's services, it must pay with utility tokens. To do so, the company must buy utility tokens for cash, set up an exchange account, deposit bought crypto, purchase utility tokens on an exchange, withdraw tokens to a wallet, and then finally send tokens to the crypto company for payment. This high-friction system deters prospective clients from using crypto projects, causing a loss of business and slowing adoption.

The current alternative is for crypto projects to use a reserve, selling tokens directly from their website to non-crypto clients. This would ease friction for the non-crypto company, but would lead to the token price having no additional demand on the market: resulting in unfavorable market sentiment due to a lack of consideration for early supporters. In this scenario, the crypto project could go on exchanges to buy back tokens and replenish their reserve. However, this creates the need for a dedicated treasury management team, causing increased inefficiency, higher costs, and more employees on payroll.

BitherPlatform News
4 years ago

1 QCP

As you know BitherPlatform started the project at the first quarter of 2017 but the main idea goes back to one year before the start of the website.

From the beginning, the team has tried to find inve...stors to fund the project but due to many reasons such as the bear market, scams, loss of funds in other projects, etc. Investors were not interested in a crypto project at all. Considering the situation, we ran presale and the crowd sale from 23 March 2019 to 1 July 2019 Unfortunately, having the highest ranks in monitors and review websites didn’t help the project and we only collected 150 ETH which was %1 of our target cap (60000ETH). We changed the target to 2000ETH and tried to have an IEO on LAToken, we spend thousands of dollars on marketing to increase the chance of meeting the cap, but surprisingly we collected less than one ETH in the IEO which was an end for some of our teammates who left the project.

After the end of IEO and scrutinizing all of our options we decided to stop the public sale and focus on individual investors. By receiving the support from the community which was an honor, we are going to push the project forward till Q4 2020 and try to reach our goal, but if we can’t do it in this period, we will refund all the funds.
