The field of decentralized finance, commonly referred to as DeFi is seen by many as an alternative to centralized financial solutions in a way where users are able to transact and rely on various services without any intermediaries.
This brings the promise of a censorship-resistant ecosystem where anyone can rely on regular financial services irrespective of nationality, status, gender, income, credit score, and whatnot.
However, DeFi in itself can also be very confusing, even for seasoned veterans. There are many different options when it comes to choosing a blockchain to use, bridges, where and how to swap, or what staking initiative offers the best returns while also not compromising security.
This makes it particularly challenging for users, especially newcomers, who

Online gaming is undoubtedly catching speed as more and more people get on board. With multi-million dollar tournaments and millions of people playing various games across the world, it’s no longer a niche field.
In fact, some estimations have the global gaming market reaching a value of a whopping $268 billion by 2025.
Interestingly enough, online gaming is also commonly touted as one of the best applications for blockchain-based technology. In 2021 and 2022, we saw a massive boom of crypto-based games in the form of play-to-earn.
One Web3 game that’s well-established within relevant gaming communities with a lot of various collaborations is Alaska Gold Rush. Now, the team has announced a new strategic partnership.

As people seek new ways to make money and diversify their portfolios, cryptocurrency trading has become increasingly popular in recent years.
This is the main reason cryptocurrency trading volumes soared in 2021 and 2022 relative to what they were in the years before that. What is more, users have started seeking out solutions that allow them to automate the process and reduce the element of human error.
This is the main reason why there are certain crypto-automating solutions, so let’s have a closer look at their implications for traders.

What is Automated Crypto Trading?
In automated crypto trading, the human element is reduced to a minimum, and instead, computer algorithms or programs are put to use. These systems attempt to identify profitable opportunities and

In the past few years, several  Metaverse gaming projects have become well-known brands in the crypto space.
Numerous play-to-earn games attempted to bridge the worlds of cryptocurrency and traditional gaming. However, we have yet to see a P2E game launch into the mainstream with definitive and continuous success: оnly a few have proven to be capable of surviving the ongoing crypto-winter.
MetaClash: Digital Avatars of Destruction is attempting to alter the industry by applying all of the lessons learned to bring blockchain-based gaming to the next level.

The world of cryptocurrency is facing multiple challenges on a daily basis, and it seems that they keep coming.
One that’s particularly common and even fundamental for the majority of the projects and coins is their lack of fundamental, intrinsic value.
This is the most commonly-used argument of crypto skeptics, and its proponents can be found in all corners of the business world. For instance, the head of the Bank of Korea said that cryptocurrencies are completely devoid of intrinsic value – words that have been spoken many times before.
Edward Cotterell, Founder, and CEO of Reality Company, a global tech start-up that is rolling out its plans to be the first blockchain-based stock exchange, says:

If there is one thing that the mainstream associates Bitcoin mining with, it’s the excessive usage of electricity.
Many people (and regulators) believe that BTC mining is going to fry the world because it uses so much electrical energy. Some governments have outright banned it. For example, back in January this year, Kosovo introduced a blanket ban on cryptocurrency mining inside the country’s borders in a bid to curb electricity consumption.
In the US, for example, regulators are trying to confine the industry within certain boundaries and introduced an increase of a whopping 29% on the electricity that Bitcoin mining companies have to pay.
Called Tariff 36, the bill requires mining companies to pay a higher rate because their electricity consumption is much higher than

The events of recent days have highlighted the importance of functioning and reliable on- and off-ramps.

Despite the fact that blockchain-based technology has been around for decades, it only caught up to speed with the rise of Bitcoin.
The idea of a decentralized network brought forward in Bitcoin’s Whitepaper 14 years ago by Satoshi Nakamoto was a direct response to the financial crisis of 2008. It delivered a viable alternative to the centralized banking system.
This technology has been growing, and it has also been redefining itself ever since, with multiple iterations and different networks competing for the spotlight. All of them are trying to provide the most innovative platform and provide users with the perfect balance between decentralization, scalability, and security.
Presently, most of the larger layer-one networks struggle with solving the blockchain trilemma,

Hen it comes to the space of decentralized finance (DeFi), security is undoubtedly one of the biggest considerations.
And that’s no surprise. According to one analysis by the cryptocurrency analytics resource Chainalysis, October has become the biggest month in the biggest year ever for hacking activity. Up until the 13th, hackers had compromised a whopping $718 million worth of crypto.
Putting a strong emphasis on security, Flasko’s team has stated that it plans to lock liquidity for 33 years in a bid to eliminate all risks of potential rug pull. But what is Flasko? Let’s find out.

Gaming has long been touted as one of the best use cases for blockchain-based technology, and the past couple of years put that to the test.
Amid the various trends that we saw come and go during the last bull market, play-to-earn is perhaps the one that many people had their sights set to. In a bid to create digital environments where players could both enjoy their favorite games while also earning money doing it, many projects attempted to create the perfect blockchain game, and many failed.

Alternative investments are coming to prominence and are taking a more central stage in the global investment scene. And while this is undoubtedly a positive feat, there are certain challenges that also take shape.
For example, it’s increasingly hard for retail investors to diversify their portfolios and include alternative investments. This is because of the lack of verifiable financial information, as well as relatively lower liquidity and a myriad of others that make it hard to both identify and execute.
Flasko has designed a product that’s intended to help investors tackle all of the above and dive into alternative investments – more specifically, whiskey, wine, and champagne.

It goes without saying that blockchain gaming is becoming more and more popular and that it’s transforming the entire gaming industry.
This is because it takes full advantage of blockchain-based concepts such as non-fungible tokens (NFTs), play-to-earn, as well as the metaverse. These are just some of the features that are aimed at making the field a great source of entertainment but also a possibility to earn an income.

Cryptocurrencies are no longer a niche product segmented in a distant industry popular only among cypherpunks and tech aficionados. They’ve become mainstream.
Largely due to their explosion in prices during the 2021 bull run, Bitcoin famously topped $69,000, they’ve cemented their place in the world of fintech.
However, now more than ever, the industry needs to prove its worth and separate investment opportunities from speculation. At a time when regulators turn their sights to crypto, the space needs clear-cut solutions that allow retail (and institutional) investors to clearly differentiate.
Dacxi Chain brings forward the first-ever global tokenized crowdfunding ecosystem designed to do just that.

Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) have become mainstream. They boomed in popularity back in 2021, and in 2022, they have cemented their place amid crypto enthusiasts and even people outside of the industry.
We’ve seen many companies implement non-fungible tokens in various marketing or customer acquisition strategies in a bid to leverage their technology and promote innovation.
Infinix is a company founded in 2013 and has committed to building stylishly designed and cutting-edge technology. Their focus is primarily on smart devices that are built to deliver memorable experiences.

Cryptocurrencies have risen to prominence over the past few years, and many retail and institutional investors are seeking direct and indirect exposure to digital assets. But while the industry offers multiple investment options, navigating the market in search of the most profitable opportunities can be daunting.
For instance, most users have to create accounts on different crypto platforms to access investment opportunities and spend their profits.
Thankfully, some companies have created an avenue where users can conduct all their crypto activities on one platform to make their investment journey much more streamlined and straightforward. An example of such a platform is Centurion Investment.

Everyone has heard the quotes from Warren Buffett about making money while sleeping being the key to wealth. While passive investing is always a wise strategy, as the Oracle of Omaha suggests, actively trading is undoubtedly more exhilarating and potentially profitable.
Even Buffett himself trades in addition to focusing on assets that generate passive income. When it comes to cryptocurrencies, the potential for profits using both methods is practically endless, although the risks are also significantly increased because of the market’s overly volatile nature.

Non-fungible tokens have undoubtedly taken center stage in the cryptocurrency community, and ever since 2021, they have become a topic of discussion even beyond that. 
Amid the boom of non-fungible tokens and their popularity, many companies, including Facebook (now Meta), contemplated the idea of creating a digital alternative of the world we live in – a concept that’s now widely known as the metaverse. 
BopoVerse brings forward an innovative metaverse where the main goal is to promote empowerment and body positivity – a place where everyone is free to be.

The cryptocurrency industry, in general, has grown tremendously in the past couple of years. This became especially evident and expressive throughout the massive bull run that we witnessed in 2021 when Bitcoin’s price almost touched $70K.
Despite the prices going down quite a bit and the market depressing to its current state, there are many industry participants who went on finding new ways and venues of both investing and trading. Covesting is amongst them.
The Covesting ecosystem has grown to become a thriving community filled with copy traders, passive investors, and COV token holders that, when combined as a whole, are so much larger than the sum of all its parts.
With it constantly growing and evolving, we have prepared this guide to the Covesting ecosystem,

The digital asset industry is evolving at a breakneck pace, and new trends are being formed as developers continue to explore the different use cases of blockchain technology.
Crypto trends such as decentralized finance (DeFi), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), GameFi, Web3, and the Metaverse, have received massive attention, and investors are looking for ways to profit from them.
But unlike venture capitalist firms, retail investors still find it hard to gain early access to promising gaming and Web3 projects. On the other hand, some blockchain developers with innovative ideas cannot access enough capital for their projects. These are some of the issues that Pac-Man Frog intends to solve.

Blockchain is no doubt revolutionizing the gaming industry. Today, concepts such as non-fungible tokens (NFTs), play-to-earn (P2E), and metaverse have garnered interest from mainstream gamers and institutional investors.
In the past, gamers spent their time and money playing games and purchasing in-game assets without getting any monetary rewards in return. But with blockchain gaming, everyone has the opportunity to earn passive income while having fun.
However, in recent times, P2E games have lost their fun as the potential of earning incentives has become the major reason for playing them. The Goons of Balatroon promises to be different, and it is preparing to launch a “fun first” play-to-earn game for every gamer.

Bit.com brings forward a full-suite cryptocurrency exchange that’s powered by Matrixport. The latter is an integrated financial services company that’s headquartered in Singapore.
Launched in 2020, the exchange already supports a myriad of features such as perpetual contracts, futures contracts, as well as options products on BTC, ETH, and BCH, where the specific highlight is centered on launching BCH options.
By means of volume, Bit.com ranks amongst the leaders in Bitcoin options. Interestingly enough, the company behind it – Matrixport – is already a unicorn company with a valuation of over $1 billion. It was founded by Jihan Wu – the co-founder of Bitmain – the largest computer chip manufacturer for BTC mining.

For anyone who managed to jump on the NFT bandwagon before it turned into a rocketship to the moon, it’s been quite a ride. Prices for the earliest, most well-known collections have exploded, making a lot of early adopters insane amounts of money and many new millionaires. However, for anyone just now getting into the NFT space, the ride is getting quite a bit bumpier, and moonshots are not as easy to come by.
Keep in mind that every popular cultural phenomenon has cycles. Like a song on the radio, what’s getting overplayed today might be considered a one-hit-wonder in a few years’ time. There will be a few big hits that climb the charts, and even those will begin to fall to a plateau.
Non-fungible tokens (NFTs) are already becoming a buyers’ market. And a tsunami of new

Play-to-earn (P2E), non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and web3 gaming are some blockchain concepts that recently came into vogue, catching the interest of crypto enthusiasts, gamers, developers, and investors from different parts of the world.
In the past, gamers spent a large chunk of their time gaming just for the fun of it without getting any monetary reward in the process. However, the birth of blockchain gaming has changed the narrative.
Today, hundreds of blockchain gaming projects are building different solutions to offer gamers the opportunity to earn while doing what they do best. One of the newest gaming projects on the list is Iskra.
What is ISKRA?

Cryptocurrencies are becoming increasingly popular as mainstream interest continues to grow. The entry of institutional investors is further driving the adoption of crypto assets on a larger scale.
However, there are still hundreds of millions of unbanked individuals globally who find it difficult to get on board the crypto space due to entry barriers. Unfortunately, intermediaries such as banks and centralized crypto exchanges have censored many people from some jurisdictions, preventing them from accessing crypto.

The Internet economy is largely managed by centralized companies that connect servers and storage space to run web content. These companies are responsible for critical decisions that affect the Internet at large. They decide how user data is collected, stored, analyzed, and used, leaving people with little to no privacy or control over their identity and information.
Giant corporations such as Amazon, Microsoft, Meta, and Google have been pioneering the Web 2.0 era, also known as the Cloud era. Over the past 25 years, they have built the most efficient data centers and networks to support the growth of the digital world. However, throughout the last decade, the inherent risks attached to the single points of failures and security issues related to centralized servers and

The importance of data in today’s world cannot be overemphasized. From innovation and design to marketing and development, corporations and government institutions need data for their daily operations.
However, data ownership, usage, storage, and management are poorly handled in the digital age. Many companies collect, store and use customers’ data without their consent, thus leading to data security and online privacy issues.
In mild cases, customers are bombarded with annoying ads, and in worse case scenarios, security breaches lead to data leak, leaving users’ information at the mercy of bad actors. This has led to a lack of trust on the part of users, as they fear that businesses will misuse their data.
But Inery blockchain has stepped in to solve the data security and

Metaverse is one of the hottest topics in the crypto industry right now. In simpler terms, it is a concept used to describe a virtual world where people can interact with each other like they do in the real world.
The possibilities of the metaverse are endless, and there are multiple virtual worlds, with each one having its own unique purpose. Some metaverses are designed for a single purpose, while others are multi-functional, covering activities such as gaming, concerts, learning, etc.
Gaming metaverses have become more popular than ever, and they involve trending concepts like GameFi, non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and Web3. Today, there are many first-generation projects, but the lack of high quality graphics, modern integrated games, and other opportunities enhances the

Cardano has long been one of the most heavily-discussed projects within the cryptocurrency space, and this became even more so once they launched smart contracts after years of peer review and development.
This spurred serious activity on the network, and many projects came to light with teams trying to develop interesting and unique use cases.
One of these projects is Bashoswap – a decentralized exchange built for the Cardano ecosystem where users can trade without the need for intermediaries or middlemen. In this interview, we talk with Bashoswap’s Chief Information Officer – Sayed Aiman – who talks at length about the intricacies behind Bashoswap, the challenges of building on Cardano, as well as what lays ahead.

Decentralized Finance (DeFi) is one of the major sectors of the cryptocurrency space. Today, the DeFi market is worth more than $75 billion, with more room for growth because of the freedom and earning opportunities it offers to users.
The main idea of DeFi is to use blockchain technology to eliminate traditional and centralized finance systems by allowing users to access financial products from anywhere in the world without restrictions.
DeFi protocols offer a number of products, including stablecoins, token swaps, credit, derivatives, insurance, asset management, wallets, oracles, etc.
Sadly, despite the potential for DeFi to revolutionize finance, protocols offering such services are very complex, making it difficult for new users to engage with them. Additionally, most

Non-fungible tokens (NFT) were the hottest topic in 2021, but the hype around the concept continues to grow stronger, with the global NFT market worth over $40 billion.
NFTs are cryptographic tokens used to uniquely represent digital and real-world assets such as images, houses, cars, songs, or anything you can think of.
Since the NFT craze of 2021, which sent the prices of some shooting off the room, avid NFT collectors have been on the lookout for the next big crypto art while developers continue to build new projects with more utilities.
As of March 2022, there were more than 3,500 NFT projects in the market, with more being launched almost every day. However, PFP remains one of the most popular types of NFTs around.
PFP stands for profile picture and is one of the most
