    ASSEMBLE Protocol (ASM) Price Surged After Coinbase Listing

    ASSEMBLE Protocol (ASM) price shows massive gains after listing on crypto exchange Coinbase. More so, this listing came after the Coinbase Pro listing. Following the listing, CEX and DEX platforms saw massive trading volumes peak above $500 million at their peak, followed by the listing on Gate.io, ranked as the 6th largest centralized exchange in the world. 

    ASSEMBLE Protocol, in essence, is a revolutionary platform for converting the loyalty points of the affiliate corporations into a single reward point ASP, which is then exchanged for the ASM token. In addition, the concept of bringing various mileages and loyalty points together into a single, unified, digital wallet is present in the South Korean market already.  

    Historically, several South Korean companies have previously tried to pioneer this industry by combining loyalty points and blockchain technology, but the ASSEMBLE Protocol has been one of the most successful ones based on the track record they have established. Currently, Apple and Android users are connected to their application through their database of around 750,000 users.

    With its platform, ASSEMBLE connects top companies from different industries onto the Ethereum Mainnet in addition to providing consumers with multiple ways to redeem points. 

    ASSEMBLE offers users the ability to freely transfer their points or to purchase goods and services within the platform. In the recent past, the ASSEMBLE team has seen the establishment of a desktop version of the ASSEMBLE Wallet. As of now, users can exchange points and purchase eGift cards on the desktop, as well as in Android and iOS apps and mobile browsers.

    Quick View on ASSEMBLE’s 2021 Achievements 

    The ASSEMBLES Protocol experienced the most growth in 2021. Coinbase Institutional announced earlier this month that they now support the ASM token for cold storage and custody. This opened the possibility of its other platforms being supported, especially Coinbase Pro. 

    ASM-USD / ASM-USDT have been added to Coinbase Pro’s platform as of Wednesday, 20th October 2021. Coinbase noted in an official blog post that the Coinbase platform will support trading, which will happen the next day after the listing. 

    Users who have Coinbase Pro accounts can, however, use inbound transfers and deposit ASM. Moreover, the ASM price increased by 200% following Coinbase Pro listing as one of the most crucial ASSEMBLE success factors. The volume of AMS transactions increased over 26,000% as a result of Coinbase listing. 

  • Transient Raises $1.2 Million in IDO Public Sale to Build the Amazon of Smart Contracts

    Transient Raises $1.2 Million in IDO Public Sale to Build the Amazon of Smart Contracts

    Tortola, British Virgin Islands, 22nd October, 2021,

    Transient Network, a Smart Contract Global Marketplace, is thrilled to announce that it has raised $1.2 million via Initial DEX Offering (IDO) on two different launchpads – Genesis Pool and Lemonade. Transient ($TSCT) raised $1 million in an oversubscribed public sale on Genesis Pool and $200,000 via Lemonade. The Lemonade sale reached its $200,000 milestone in just 90 minutes!

    Transient is building the “Amazon of smart contracts” – a global marketplace of decentralized applications (dApps) designed to help non-coders create smart contracts for specific use cases and industries. Individuals and businesses, even those with zero knowledge of coding, can use the relevant dApp on the marketplace to create self-enforcing and self-executing smart contracts.

    Prior to the IDO public sale, Transient had raised $275,000 in a seed round that saw participation from Exit Forward — a venture capital firm supporting forward thinking projects — and a number of silent advisors. 

    It had also raised $1.2 million in a private ($TSCT) token sale. Given the nature of the project, Transient decided to raise primarily from a group of individual investors rather than seeking greater participation from whales or prominent venture capitalists.

    Speaking on the fundraising milestone, Transient Network CEO Beau Olson said, “After a long road to get here, we are absolutely thrilled and excited to have completed our private and public raises – with a number of keen investors and launchpads snapping up the opportunity to get in at the very beginning of our journey ahead – we particularly thank our seed investors Exit Forward and launchpad partners GPool and Lemonade. We at Transient can now focus on bringing the world our Smart Contract Global Marketplace, allowing coders and non-coders alike to leverage our smart contracts for anyone, anywhere, anytime.”

    Since the launch of Ethereum, smart contracts have become one of the biggest components of the blockchain space. But until now, only people with programming skills could take advantage of them. 

    Transient believes that the benefits of smart contracts – immutability, transparency, speed, accuracy, and hyper-security – shouldn’t be limited to transactions and agreements between coders. Enabling non-coders to create and interact with smart contracts could drive blockchain adoption at the grassroots level. 

    The first four dApps on Transient’s marketplace are:

    • TSC-Core: A standard smart contract creation and management app with features like transfer, deposit and digital signature.
    • CryptoPool: Enables users to create their own pools for crypto price predictions and share in the winnings. 
    • Esports: Builds an ecosystem of P2P market creation of your favorite competitions and a number of other services — taking social betting and content-driven experiences to the next level.
    • NDA: Lets users create smart contracts that make it easier to work with clients and partners. Transient’s legal advisors ensure the contracts are bulletproof within the legal landscape.

    About Transient

    Transient is a decentralized ecosystem that gives non-coders the ability to create and manage their own Next-Gen Contracts in the digital world. Its Smart Contract Global Marketplace is built from the ground up to increase blockchain adoption across every sphere of industry and life by hosting and enabling the instantaneous creation and distribution of a wide range of self-enforcing and self-executing Smart Contracts.

  • Billionaire VC and PayPal Co-Founder, Peter Thiel, Wishes He Bought More Bitcoin

    Billionaire VC and PayPal Co-Founder, Peter Thiel, Wishes He Bought More Bitcoin

    Key takeaways:

    • Peter Thiel, a prominent tech investor and co-founder of PayPal, feels he underinvested in Bitcoin
    • Thiel believes that the recently reached Bitcoin’s ATH points to the failure of central banks

    A billionaire entrepreneur and venture capitalist Peter Thiel feels he has “underinvested” in Bitcoin. When interviewed at an event hosted by policy brain-trust Lincoln Network on Wednesday, Thiel revealed his stance on the world’s largest crypto and called out central banks for essentially being bankrupt.

    Theil shared his thought on crypto, central banks, and AI

    The outspoken tech investor and self-proclaimed libertarian said that Bitcoin rallying to its new all-time high is worrisome for central banks. He went on to explain that Bitcoin’s latest bull run “tells us that we are at a complete bankruptcy moment for the central banks.”

    Thiel’s stance was recently echoed by a group of JPMorgan strategists, who attributed BTC’s historical performance to inventors’ concern over rising inflation levels, and not to the recent launch of a first US-traded Bitcoin ETF. 

    Theil also talked about his personal investment in digital assets and said that he felt “underinvested” in Bitcoin. He added that despite its huge success, Bitcoin is still somewhat of a secret for many investors, which means that the world’s largest crypto has a lot of room to grow.

    “Bitcoin is a hedge against the whole world falling apart.”

    When talking about the advancement made in the field of artificial intelligence, Thiel was quick to criticize the nascent technology, calling AI systems that are used for surveillance purposes “essentially communist,” and said he fears that the AI technology is “going to destroy the world.”

    Billionaire investor whose rise to prominence is strongly linked with the success of PayPal has famously remarked that longing BTC is a protective measure in the face of a looming financial collapse. Thiel has been championing the benefits of Bitcoin for a long time and thinks BTC succeeded in its role as a currency since way back in 2014 when it was still trading below the $1000 mark.

  • Bitcoin Tops $67k, What You Need to Know Before Investing in Bitcoin

    Bitcoin Tops $67k, What You Need to Know Before Investing in Bitcoin

    Do you get jealous of the people who invested in bitcoin in one year, two years, or a few years ago?

    Don’t be afraid to admit it. Those who entered the market early usually find their pocket full of money with bitcoin hitting ATHs again and again. Bitcoin hitting a fresh, new all-time high of $67,000 on Wednesday has many people believe the benchmark cryptocurrency is making its way to $100,000, as predicted by many analysts, including those from JP Morgan, Bloomberg, and PlanB. A new wave of investors now can gain access to bitcoin via holding, ETF, futures trading and so on. If you have been thinking about joining the boom, there will never be a time that is “too late”. However, before investing in bitcoin, there are several questions you need to figure out first. 

    1. What is the best way to invest in bitcoin?

    That is no best way and really depends on your risk tolerance, capital, and expectations. Holding bitcoin is the most common way and it is ideal if you are in the game for the long term. Investors are less concerned with price fluctuations and this is one of the easiest ways. Generally, people buy bitcoin and store them into a cold-wallet. Now more and more investors store their bitcoin in an interest wallet to earn more bitcoin. The annualized interest rates could vary from 1% to as high as 21%.

    Futures trading is favored by investors who are more ambitious and risk-prone. Futures trading enables investors to earn money from different directions by speculating the price of bitcoin. Many platforms offer 25x, 50x, and 100x leverage. With leverage, you can increase your exposure and earn more. But be careful, this could also increase your loss. So always remember to control your position and set stop-loss. 

    2. Is your chosen exchange suitable for you? 

    An exchange is not just some broker who wants to make money from you, but your partner in making money. A good exchange is where you can trade easily and safely and focus on just trading. In order to find the one that is suitable for you, you should do your research. Factors such as history, fee structure, demo account, and customer services are crucial. A bad exchange may not only cause troubles for you, but also steals from you. For example, the average fee for most trading platforms in the market is about 0.1%-0.2%. And some platforms even have a transaction fee of as high as 8%. If you trade on a platform with an unreasonable fee or doesn’t state the fee clearly, you could lose big. 

    3. Can you devote time and energy to learning to trade?

    This question distinguishes those who make their profits by luck and those who reach their goals by themselves. There’s a learning curve to learn something new, for Bitcoin futures trading, it takes you only 10 minutes to understand the mechanism but it can take a few days to build your strategies after attempts at real trading. It’s common for beginners to get lost in a variety of new concepts and learning the ins and outs of an exchange and trading engine could be difficult. So if you are new to crypto trading, it is recommended that you practice first in a trading simulator. And don’t hesitate to consult help centers when you trade on exchanges.

    Bexplus offers 100x leverage in BTC, ETH, DOGE, ADA, and XRP futures contracts. Bexplus is trusted by over 800K traders around the world, including the USA, Japan, Korea, and Iran. No KYC, no deposit fee, traders can receive the most attentive services, including 24/7 customer support and personal account manager. 

    When you successfully sign up, you can get the 10 free BTC in the trading simulator which enables you to practice trading futures contracts without losing money.

    • Wallet with up to 21% annual interest

    Prices go up, prices go down, but the Bexplus BTC wallet is to protect and increase your assets. If you would like to take a rest from the ever-changing crypto market, you can turn to the Bexplus interest wallet. It provides 21% annualized interest. That is to say, if you deposit 1 BTC, you will get 1.2BTC a year later. Undeniably, that is almost the highest interest in the industry.

    • 100% Bonus to Help You Maximize Profit

    Double deposits, double profits. Users can get a 100% deposit bonus for every deposit on Bexplus. If you deposit 1 BTC, 2 BTC will be credited to your account, and the profits gained with the bonus are withdrawable.

  • Walmart Customers Can Now Buy Digital Currency at 200 Bitcoin ATM Locations

    Walmart Customers Can Now Buy Digital Currency at 200 Bitcoin ATM Locations

    Retail giant, Walmart, has partnered with Coinstar for a pilot program that will let customers buy Bitcoin at 200 brick-and-mortar stores across the United States. If the pilot turns out to be successful, Coinstar plans to install 8,000 BTC ATMs at various locations across the country.

    Key takeaways:

    • According to Bloomberg, the first stages of the pilot program commenced earlier this month. The full rollout is set to include 8,000 BTC ATMs in total.
    • Coinstar, a coin-cashing machine firm, is partnering with CoinMe, one of the largest cash-to-crypto exchanges in the world, to provide the necessary know-how and infrastructure. CoinMe offers over 20,000 locations where users are able to exchange fiat for Bitcoin.
    • The CSO and head of research at BitOoda, Sam Doctor, told Bloomberg:  “Walmart expands Bitcoin access to more people, though, and gives it further legitimacy among skeptics, should they roll it out beyond an initial pilot.”
    • There are more than 25,000 active Bitcoin ATMs in the US alone, according to Coin ATM Radar. 
    • The Bitcoin ATM service is notorious for its exuberant fees. In total, customers have to pay 11% for the service of buying BTC with cash; 4% for the BTC option and 7% for cash exchange.
    • Walmart’s first public foray into the cryptocurrency industry came earlier in the year when the world’s biggest retailer announced it is searching for a “visionary leader” to fill the crypto product lead position.

  • Solana Based Play-to-Earn Startup MonkeyBall raises $3M From Crypto’s Top VCs and Founders

    Solana Based Play-to-Earn Startup MonkeyBall raises $3M From Crypto’s Top VCs and Founders

    Tel Aviv, Israel, 21st October, 2021,

    Play-to-Earn startup and NFT game MonkeyBall has announced the completion of its latest funding round, raising over $3 million from a large cohort of both venture and angel investors. 

    MonkeyBall is a fast, turn-based, play-to-earn arcade soccer game that can be described as an intersection between FIFA Street and Final Fantasy. In the game, each user controls a team of four monkeys with the objective of winning matches against other teams. Users are able to earn tokens for each victory, though they can also be gained by buying stadiums, hosting games or even by cheering for winning teams while attending other games.

    MonkeyBall offers a high production value, AAA-grade gaming experience and is being developed on the Unity game engine, allowing it to deploy on both Desktop and Mobile. The game is being developed by a team with unmatched experience in both game development and crypto.

    The company behind MonkeyBall has now collected the funds necessary to complete and launch the game, with a $3M investment round from a list of angels, crypto-native and “traditional” venture funds, and exchanges. Specifically, the investment was made by Solana Capital , Republic, NFX, iAngels, Longhash, CMS, Jump Capital, Youbi, Morningstar Ventures, Banter Capital, Ascentive Assets, MarketAcross, Node Capital,  ZBS Capital, Metaversal, Collider, BFF and 6th Man Ventures

    Angels who took part in the investment round are Shalom Meckenzie and founders of DraftKings; Noam Lanir founder of Livermore, Tamir Carmi co-founder of IronSource; founders from Dafabet,  Nimrod Lehavi, co-founder of Simplex; Yoni Assia, co-founder of eToro; Joe Mccann, Yenwen Feng, Shao-Kang Lee, co-founders of Perpetual Protocol and Shahaf Bar-Geffen the CEO of Coti who will serve as MonkeyBall’s Chairman

    “Truly excited to unveil this amazing roster of investors who are supporting MonkeyBall,” said Oren Langberg, Head of Marketing at MonkeyBall “Play-to-earn is an exciting and quickly growing application for blockchain and NFTs, but it’s not easy to find games with great production quality. The first play-to-earn game to truly become mainstream is still in the future, and we are hard at work to realize that future for MonkeyBall.”

    “Play-to-earn games are a revolution in how gamers interface with the virtual world,” says Shalom Mckenzie, of DraftKings. “Gaming and NFTs will be the first true mass appeal application of blockchain, all that is missing is to actually make a game that would stand tall among AAA titles. I believe the Monkey Ball team has what it takes to get there.” 

    Gigi Levi of NFX added: “As an early-stage investor in some of the most successful mobile/casual gaming start-ups in the world, we at NFX have been looking at the booming play-to-earn market for a while now. We believe that the space will only continue to grow, and that the winners will be those teams that combine the best of blockchain  know-how with amazing game-design capabilities, that know how to utilize and unite the best of both Blockchain and “traditional” gaming sectors. MonkeyBall is the best one we’ve seen yet!’

  • AOI and PARTNRS group join Tezos ecosystem as first Luxembourg Corporate Baker

    AOI and PARTNRS group join Tezos ecosystem as first Luxembourg Corporate Baker

    Luxembourg City, Luxembourg, 21st October, 2021,

    Today, AOI s.a., an open innovation programme put in place as a joint venture by PARTNRS group, INNO, Eric Roux and Carlo Reding, becomes the first Luxembourg company to participate in the Tezos ecosystem as a corporate baker. By officially becoming a baker, AOI will now validate transactions (blocks) and add them to the Tezos blockchain.

    AOI, as a baker, will have different roles to play in Tezos governance: in addition to validating the transactions, it will be at the core of the protocol’s evolution by having voting rights proportional to the tez (Tezos tokens) it stakes and are delegated to it.

    Tezos is an open-source platform that addresses key barriers facing blockchain adoption for assets and applications backed by a global community of validators, researchers, and builders. AOI will soon launch more services around Tezos and delegation and has the ambition to become a pro-active participant of the Tezos ecosystem.

    The Tezos ecosystem is built on low-gas fees, cross-chain utility, yield farming protocols, efficient DEXs, bustling NFT platforms, and more. With over 5.8 million contract calls in September, Tezos is one of the fastest growing blockchain ecosystems. On Tezos, developers are able to easily build powerful decentralized applications and products. Projects and brands such as Red Bull Racing Honda, McLaren Racing, OneOf, Ubisoft, Interpop, Hic-Et-Nunc, and more have chosen to build on the Tezos blockchain.

    Upgrades on Tezos are made possible by its proven on-chain governance, where continuous improvements are proposed by participants on the network. They are voted on, adopted, and deployed without the need to rely on hard forks. This upgrade mechanism minimizes disruptions while offering regular upgradability and enhanced functionality over time. So far, Tezos has undergone seven network upgrades that have reduced gas fees by 70%, improved token standards, increased transaction speed, and more. 

    Cyril Lamorlette, PARTNRS representative, added: “Becoming a corporate baker on Tezos is a very pragmatic illustration of our successful joint venture with INNO! Open source innovations, such as participating in the governance of the Tezos network, are not only a compelling concept, but are also a robust business case as reflected in our decision to become the first Tezos corporate baker in Luxembourg.”

    Alexia Martinel, Adoption Manager in Luxembourg at Nomadic Labs, commented: “We are particularly delighted to welcome the first Luxembourg corporate baker to the Tezos ecosystem; thus paving the way for a growing commitment from the country’s institutional players.”

  • Cryptocurrency Market Capitalization Reaches a New ATH

    Cryptocurrency Market Capitalization Reaches a New ATH

    Key takeaways:

    • The total cryptocurrency market cap has increased to a new peak of $2.65T on the tailwind of a 5.3% 24-hour gain
    • Bitcoin’s all-time high pulls the cryptocurrency industry to new heights

    The total cryptocurrency market capitalization has increased past its previous high of $2.54 trillion reached in mid-May and posted a new peak of $2.65 trillion during today’s explosive trading action. The cumulative value of all digital market assets is now higher than the market cap of the biggest publicly traded companies, including Apple, which is worth $2.46 trillion at the time of this writing.

    The cryptocurrency market reaches a new ATH of $2.65 trillion

    Things are changing fast in the blockchain space. The total market cap was below $2 trillion at the turn of the month and has since gained more than 30%. The sharp increase was fueled by Bitcoin’s rally, which saw the world’s largest cryptocurrency reach a new ATH above the $66K mark earlier today.

    The total market cap grew from $1.84T on September 29 to $2.65T today.

    As of now, the Bitcoin supply of 18.8 million coins has a combined worth of $1.24 trillion and accounts for little more than 47% of the total cryptocurrency market cap. The second-largest crypto asset, Ethereum, accounts for 18%, while Binance Coin has a market share of roughly 3%. 

    The cumulative market value of the top 10 cryptocurrencies is approximately $2.14 trillion, which represents roughly three-quarters of the combined value of all digital assets.

    Interestingly, the number of digital currencies with a market cap higher than $1 billion now includes 102 altcoins.

    Although a lot has changed since Bitcoin last reached $60K, the biggest crypto is still by far the most important trendsetter in the sector; this was prominently on display today, as Bitcoin’s rally pulled virtually all altcoins along for the bullish ride. For reference, only 6 coins out of the top 100 are trading in the red zone at press time.
