Moto Genesis NFT Collection launched: Wilder World (WILD) token price surges

Metaverse crypto coins are continuously building their ecosystems; something that has made them remain popular even as the general crypto market continues to trade sideways. Wilder World (WILD) cryptocurrency is one of such metaverse tokens.

The Wider World (WILD) token has surged by over 30% today following the release of the Wilder Moto Genesis NFT collection on July 12.

At the time of writing, the WILD token was trading at $0.2716 and had hit a daily high of $0.2751.

Wilder Moto Genesis NFT Collection

The Wilder Moto Genesis NFT Collection that was released by Wilder World on July 12 featured 6,396 Moto NFTs. The Motos are envisaged to get new homes in the Wiami garages in the hands of top collectors and wheel racers.

The NFT collection is part of the broader Wilder Genesis Rewards Program that was launched to reward genesis Wheel NFT holders. They are similar to the tokens that ApeCoin airdropped to the holders of BAYC NFTs.

Wilder World is simply awarding the purchasers of the Wheels NFT collection.

Getting a Moto NFT

Those with the Genesis Wheels NFTs can get the Moto NFTs by going to the Wilder World website, connecting their wallets, and finding out whether they qualify to claim a Moto NFT. The claiming period lasts up to July 19th.

Those without the Wheels NFTs and still willing to purchase the Moto NFTs can head to OpenSea and purchase Wilder Moto at a floor price of 0.7 ETH.

It is important to note that the Wilder Moto NFTs are currently mystery boxes and will only be revealed after July 19th. Currently, the NFTs appear as black and white see-through designs.

What is Wilder World?

Wilder World is a leading metaverse and NFT project that was launched in May 2021. It is building its Metaverse using the Epic Games’ latest Unreal Engine 5 which ensures high-quality graphics and an engaging experience.

Wilder World aims at creating an RPG-themed ecosystem in the metaverse that allows users to own virtual real estates, customize characters, and drive vehicles among many other things.

While Wilder World is all about NFTs, it has a native utility token by the name WILD, which is an ERC20 Ethereum-based token. WILD is the primary asset for purchasing NFTs within the Wilder World ecosystem and it can also be traded on several crypto exchange platforms.

Is Stellar Lumens good crypto to buy now after the recent dip?

  • Stellar Lumens is 87% below its ATH.

  • The cryptocurrency brings together the global financial systems to blockchain.

  • Stellar token XLM is yet to find a bottom.

Stellar Lumens XLM/USD trades slightly above $0.1. Compared to its all-time high of around $0.79 in May 2021, that represents a decline of 87%. This thesis answers the key question of whether investors are good at buying Stellar Lumens at low prices.

Stellar Lumens prides itself on being an open network for safe custody and transfers of money. The platform simplifies the process used to create, transfer, and trade all forms of digital money. That also includes dollars, pesos, and Bitcoin. The network aims to enable all the global financial systems to work together.

Undoubtedly, as digital payments grow, Stellar Lumens will follow suit. This was evident early last month when Novatti Group onboarded Stellar for a new stablecoin. Stellar, alongside Ripple, was selected by the international payments network for the project. The stablecoin will be pegged to the Australian dollar. Last year, Stellar also partnered with payments giant MoneyGram. The partnership will let customers convert their digital money into cash. Such developments highlight the vital role of Stellar and its native token XLM in blockchain.

From the weekly chart, Stellar Lumens is yet to find a bottom price. An RSI reading of 31 suggests the cryptocurrency is oversold. However, the token is yet to find support which currently sits at $0.07. We do not think it is yet time to buy Stellar Lumens, although the current level remains attractive. The price will potentially slide lower to find the next support at $0.07.

Summary

Stellar Lumens lacks a catalyst for a potential rally. The cryptocurrency remains viable in line with the growth in digital payments and blockchain. The recent plunge may continue until the cryptocurrency reaches $0.07.

Uniswap token escapes consolidation zone with a chance to ride up to $8.0

  • Uniswap’s token has gained by 12% in 24 hours

  • The protocol’s liquidity providers faced a phishing attack on Monday

  • Uniswap has now escaped the consolidation zone and eyes higher levels

Uniswap’s UNI/USD has risen by 12 % in the last 24 hours, according to CoinMarketCap. The gains come amid slight recoveries in crypto after inflation data stoked markets. We believe Uniswap has a long way to recover. However, the latest gains will be sustained in the next few days.

The gains in Uniswap come amid a suspected phishing attack on its v3 protocol liquidity providers. The attack, which occurred on Monday, led to the loss of around $4.7 million ETH tokens. ERC20 tokens and NFTs were also stolen in the sophisticated attack. Uniswap crashed by almost 10% following the attack. Uniswap’s development team clarified that the phishing attack was not caused by an error in the protocol.

Uniswap’s token bottomed at $4.7. The price crashed below it temporarily but recovered. The latest gains push the price above the bottom level, raising a bullish case for the token. MACD indicators are bullish too. The MACD line crossed above the moving average, indicating a bullish trend. The 14-day and 21-day moving averages have joined a support for the Uniswap token. We believe the cryptocurrency offers opportunities in the short and long term.

In the short term, the Uniswap token has an established resistance at $8.0. Investors should consider holding up to the level. However, the token could face a minor correction at $6.1. Investors can buy at the 14-day or $21-day moving averages. In the long-term, investors should hold Uniswap to lock value at the bottom price.

Summary

Uniswap’s token is starting a bullish rally after overcoming a consolidation level. The cryptocurrency will continue rising but may face resistance at $8.0. Investors can hold in the short term to the resistance or long-term.

CoinFLEX announces resumption of withdrawals

After pausing withdrawals last month, CoinFLEX has today announced the resumption of withdrawals.

CoinFLEX announced it will enable limited withdrawals for all its users this week as it continues to work on its recovery plans.

Starting at 5 am UTC (1 pm HKT/SGT) on Friday, July 15, CoinFLEX will cancel all current pending withdrawals and return all the funds to their respective account balance. The platform will then shut down for a few hours to begin the process of re-enabling withdrawals and trading.

Non-FLEX Perp positions

CoinFLEX recommends users close all existing non-FLEX Perp positions by the end of the week.

According to CoinFLEX, many of its users have accounts with open Perp positions that require liquidation when the FLEX Perp mark price is updated. And a section of these accounts would go to the negative equity.

Therefore, to protect creditors on the CoinFLEX platform, balances and positions in all the subaccounts will be merged with their respective main accounts.

Withdrawing BCH

After the resumption, 90% of any new smartBCH deposits on CoinFLEX will be locked leaving 10% for trading and withdrawal as BCH.

Withdrawals of BCH on smartBCH network will continue until further notice.

FlexUSD balances

All existing flexUSD balances on CoinFLEX will be locked.

Then 90% of any new flexUSD deposits transferred from a cold wallet leaving only 10% available for redeeming.

And since all futures contracts must be closed, flexUSD will not hold short perp positions meaning holders will not be earning interests for now.

New flexUSD minting has also been suspended until further notice.

FLEX coin withdrawals

Existing FLEX coins will also be locked like other assets. Any new FLEX coins bought on CoinFLEX will however be fully available for withdrawals.

CoinFLEX also noted that they are continuing to work on resolving their current predicament that could lead to allowing further withdrawals. It is also looking for potential new investors or acquisitions or a combination of both as it tries to resolve the situation.
