Crypto Biz: Winklevoss slams Silbert, Twitter’s double-edged sword and more PlatoBlockchain Data Intelligence. Vertical Search. Ai.

Twitter’s plans to roll out a payment platform took a major step forward this week as its subsidiary, Twitter Payments, received its first money transmitter licenses in the United States states of Michigan, New Hampshire and Missouri. 

The company — reportedly building a solution with crypto in mind — is seeking to provide transfer services in all 50 U.S. states, with further approvals still pending and no clear timeline in place.

Kot pri vsakem podjetju tudi Twitter išče nove vire prihodkov, ki jih podpira njegova ogromna baza uporabnikov. Na dogodku Twitter Space leta 2022 je Musk dejal, da si je zamislil omogočiti povezavo bančnih računov s profili družbenih medijev, vključno z debetnimi karticami in denarnimi prenosi. Cilj se zdi podoben zdaj propadlemu Diemu - propadlemu globalnemu plačilnemu projektu Facebookove matične družbe Meta.

Za boljše rezultate kot Metin projekt se Twitter močno zanaša na svojo kripto-tehnološko skupnost, vendar je Musk tudi v nasprotju s Crypto Twitterjem. Ta teden je platforma omejila svoj doseg vsebine in navedla "ekstremne ravni strganja podatkov in sistemske manipulacije." Odločitev je bila udarec za kripto ekosistem, ki je močno odvisen od Twitterja za izmenjavo informacij in pridobivanje novega občinstva.

"Razlog, zakaj sem nastavil "omejitev pogleda", je, ker smo vsi odvisniki od Twitterja in moramo iti ven," je dejal Musk na platformi. Ta poteza bi lahko bila dvorezen meč za Twitterjeve plačilne načrte.

Ta teden Crypto Biz raziskuje tudi boj Geminija s skupino za digitalne valute (DCG) glede uporabniških sredstev, novih bančnih orodij za digitalni juan in prizadevanja OpenAI, da prepreči uporabnikom, da bi preskakovali plačilni zid.

Winklevoss kritizira Silberta iz DCG - Niti SBF ni bil "zmožen takšne zablode"

In an open letter published on July 4, Cameron Winklevoss slammed Digital Currency Group’s CEO Barry Silbert for allegedly playing the victim card while owing $1.2 billion to Gemini’s 232,000 Earn customers. DCG’s Genesis was the lender behind Gemini’s Earn program, which promised returns as high as 8% to depositors. It suspended withdrawals in November 2022 after FTX’s collapse. “I write to inform you that your games are over,” Winklevoss said, explaining that professional fees have now “ballooned” to over $100 million at the expense of credits and Earn users. Winklevoss has given Silbert an ultimatum: accept his firm’s “best and final offer” or face a lawsuit. The offer includes a $1.47 billion agreement, with the first payment due this month and the last payment due five years from now. Later, on July 7, Gemini vložil tožbo against DCG. 

Kripto prijazna banka DBS Bank lansira orodje za transakcije digitalnih juanov

DBS Bank China officially napovedal začetek of the digital yuan merchant solution, allowing mainland businesses to receive payments in the central bank digital currency (CBDC). DBS told Cointelegraph that the new service would allow its clients in mainland China to receive or collect the digital yuan and have it automatically settled into their yuan bank deposit accounts. By the end of 2022, there were 13.6 billion digital yuan in circulation, or about $2 billion. The CBDC is currently accepted across 26 cities and 17 provinces in China, with adoption expected to increase as more provinces join the program.

Musk uvede "omejitev hitrosti" na Twitterju, pri čemer navaja izjemno "sistemsko manipulacijo"

Social media platform Twitter is temporarily limiting the number of posts users will be allowed to read daily after seeing “extreme levels of data scraping and system manipulation,” according to executive chairman Musk. The new rules temporarily limit verified accounts to see 10,000 posts per day, while unverified and new unverified accounts are capped at 1,000 and 500 posts per day, respectively. The decision has been largely criticized by the crypto community, which relies heavily on Twitter to communicate and share information. The new rate limits already affected the indexing and display of tweets on Google’s search engine, causing over 50% of Twitter URLs to disappear from the search index. Lower tweet visibility on Google would also reduce the amount of crypto-related content originating from Twitter. 

OpenAI zaustavi funkcijo ChatGPT Bing, ker so uporabniki preskakovali plačljive zidove

ChatGPT’s Browse, a Bing-based search engine feature, has been temporarily disabled by OpenAI after a loophole enabled users to bypass paywalled content. OpenAI may have acted on the issue in response to a Reddit post. In late June, a member of the r/ChatGPT subreddit posted a screenshot of a Browse session where they asked the chatbot to “print the text” of a link to a paywalled article from The Atlantic. In response, ChatGPT provided the article in full without the paywall. The browser is currently in beta and is available to subscribers of the ChatGPT Plus service.
