What is Star Atlas? (POLIS & ATLAS)

Star Atlas held its IEO in FTX last January 26. This full guide talks about the inner workings of the Star Atlas platform. In the past year alone, we have witnessed an immense rise in blockchain-based gaming projects. The unique combination of gaming and traditional financing has become quite appealing to a community of blockchain enthusiasts. The introduction of titles like Yield Guild Games and Binamon has truly legitimized the decentralized gaming sector. Star Atlas and other gaming projects alike have shown the importance of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) for a

This is how confident whales are about Ethereum’s price

Ethereum has lost nearly 60% of its value since its peak back in May. However, the scale of the reversal in the value of the second-largest cryptocurrency has definitely invited more interest and support from crypto-holders in the market. ETH recently lost its support at $2,000 and dropped to $1,844, before recovering somewhat. To the market’s traders, however, this was a good entry point, with the subsequent buying pressure pushing the alt’s value to its press time value of $1,959. Buy low, sell high. We all know the basics of

Jeff Currie Talks Bitcoin, Risk, Inflation Hedge

The head of Commodities Research at Goldman Sachs spoke on Bloomberg TV regarding his view of Bitcoin. He compared it with copper and gold in particular. Risk On, Risk Off Goldman Sachs Head of Commodities Research Jeffrey Currie told Bloomberg TV on Dec. 17 that he sees Bitcoin as a risk-on growth proxy. He compared it to copper and said that overlaying their pricing charts shows that they act in much the same way. Risk-on investments are those, across investment classes, that investors perceive as interesting when risk is relatively

FAANG stocks And Digital Assets Are Flying

Which would you prefer, a large pizza split into eight slices, or a large pizza split into 12 slices? A normal, rational person might suggest that it really doesn’t make much of a difference, as it’s really the same amount of pizza. This poor Australian girl, however, will probably never live down the time her “friend” Brad filmed her saying that she’d prefer eight slices, because she couldn’t possibly eat 12 slices of Pizza. Well, today Jen can finally point out that the eternity of new-wave momentum traders are giving

Stocks Continue to Rally While Digital Assets Take a Breather

The idea of the tooth fairy never made much sense to me. I don’t like the idea of presenting fiction as fact, especially to my children. My wife, on the other hand, is quite into it. For one thing, the economics are all messed up. Supposing there’s some kind of business or even a nonprofit, how does the Tooth Organization sustain the kind of overhead involved when every transaction results in a loss? The other thing is the timing, which almost never adds up. While you might be able to

Analysts Fear an Ethereum Drop to $300 As Price Becomes “Heavy”

Ethereum has begun to drop over the past 24 hours as the asset was once again rejected at $400. $400 is a psychological and technical resistance for the leading cryptocurrency, which is still up 50% in the past two weeks. Analysts believe that the recent price weakness could be a precursor to a stronger retracement in the days ahead. One commentator is predicting a drop to $300. This purportedly lines up with important technical levels on Ethereum’s medium-term chart. Investors in ETH should watch Bitcoin and other markets for some

Stocks Fly and Precious Metals Fly, Bitcoin Remains Firm

Even though we said in yesterday’s update that we weren’t going to cover the Microsoft TikTok talks, it seems things have now escalated to the point where it seems difficult to ignore, especially in light of unprecedented intervention from the president. Shortly after we hit the send button, President Donald Trump stated that TikTok now has a deadline of September 15 to sell off all its U.S. operations to an American company, be it Microsoft, Apple, or anyone else. In addition, the president has stated that the U.S. Department of

The Bulls Are Back in the Digital Asset Market

Hope you had an excellent weekend. It’s become a bit of a rarity lately while bitcoin was sitting flat, but now that crypto is in a bull market again, I suppose it makes sense to see some volatility over the weekend. Hope it’s not surprising to anyone. Stocks are moving up, precious metals are marching higher, and capital is flowing toward new age financial technology in a way that we’ve never really seen before. There’s a lot more liquidity these days, and it has been floating into all sorts of

The Platform Is Set for Virtual Conferences: Will It Live Up to Its Promises?

As the global economy struggles to adapt to the rapid changes the coronavirus pandemic has forced upon the world, the virtual conference space is booming. The need to engage, communicate and expand our network has perhaps never been so necessary as businesses struggle to survive what may be the next great economic depression. Blockchain and cryptocurrency are sectors of the financial technology industry that are used to leading the way when it comes to innovation, and it’s no surprise that blockchain conferences are quickly moving online in an effort to keep
