Tether to release documentary on its mission to bring financial freedom on 10th anniversary

  • Tether is building a financial tool for the “people left behind”
  • The stablecoin was created in 2014 by Brock Pierce, Reeve Collins, and Craig Sellers
  • It remains the largest stablecoin with a market cap worth $120 billion

To celebrate the 10th anniversary of Tether, the stablecoin is releasing a documentary on USDT and how it’s working to bring “financial freedom worldwide.”

In a post on X, Tether said it would soon release its documentary “Stability and Freedom in Chaos.” During the two-minute video, Tether shows interviewees from several countries including Argentina, Brazil, and Turkey.

One interviewee in Brazil stated, “Tether with USDT is like 90% of the transactions that Brazil makes during the day.” Another interviewee claimed that people in Argentina don’t want to save in pesos, the local currency, and want a stable currency like Tether.

Tether, named the seventh-largest Bitcoin holder in April, was created in 2014 by Brock Pierce, Reeve Collins, and Craig Sellars. Before being renamed to Tether, it was known as The Realcoin, and today is the largest stablecoin by market cap.

At the time of writing, it’s currently worth $120 billion.

Working for the people left behind

Built on several blockchains including Avalanche, Ethereum, and Polygon, Tether works on a 1:1 ratio, pegging its value to the US dollar.

Following the Tether documentary news, Paolo Ardoino, Tether CEO, said on X that the company’s mission has always been simple: to “bring financial inclusion to the billions of people, primarily living in developing countries, that can’t have bank accounts or that live in high inflation countries.

Ardoino, who joined as Tether’s new CEO in 2023, added that they are building financial technology “for the people left behind” and that Tether has become a “symbol of disintermediation, resilience and stability.”

With hundreds of millions of people transacting with USDT, Tether has seen its market share increase to more than 75% from 55% over the past two years, solidifying its presence in the market.

Shiba Inu and Rexas Finance grab eyeballs with strong performances, is now still a good time to buy?

As we head towards the end of the year, the cryptocurrency market is still demanding attention with a lot of exciting activities and surprises. Among these are Shiba Inu (SHIB) and Rexas Finance (RXS), which have recently been recognised by investors as possessing the potential to record strong growth in a short period. Owing to their robust infrastructure and great recent results, the debate about investing in these assets now has even intensified. Is now still a good time to buy?

Shiba Inu (SHIB): Riding a wave of momentum

The SHIB project at first was regarded as merely a trial run but ever since it has shown that there is a lot more than meets the eye. For instance, As of today, SHIB costs $0.0000194, with an enormous 24-hour trading volume of $2.06 billion. Even in these figures alone, one may appreciate the level of liquidity and deepening popularity of the token. In the last 7 days and the last 30 days, the SHIB growth performance has grown by 34.73% and 36.04%, as accompanied by making a bullish continuity more visible. With a Circulating Supply of 589.26 trillion tokens with a market capitalization of $11.48 Billion, SHIB is positioned as one of the most interesting tokens in the market. As a result of the price increase, those investors with the speculative mind that SHIB will increase in value by up to 1,500% saw the opening with this being the best time.

Rexas Finance (RXS): The new defi star on the rise

Although Shiba Inu remains strong in the market, Rexas Finance (RXS) is confidently growing strong in the DeFi space. During the presale stages, RXS went very well and attracted many investors who wanted to invest at early stages in what could be a major project. It is worth noting that the current price for the token is $0.05 since it is at the third stage of its presale. The project presale has attracted more than $1.85 million. With Stage 3 nearly sold out at over 70%, it’s evident that Rexas Finance has caught the attention of investors like never before.

Rexas Finance’s growth

Rexas Finance is positioning itself as the only DeFi platform that provides safe, clear, and effective financial services. With a successful presale, there is already some demonstrated interest on the part of both retail and institutional audiences in the project. Anyone registered on the platform can already earn on their crypto assets by utilizing advanced features such as yield farming, staking, and liquidity mining.

At the same time, Réxas Finance flaunts a solid governance structure as well, which enables all the holders of the tokens to participate in the governance of the platform. Potential ROI is one of the most interesting features when it comes to the RXS token. Market research indicates that investors could enjoy a 4x return before the token gets launched. Looking at the presale price of $0.05, it implies it will be $0.20 or more after launch.

This candidate is perfect for all those who plan to make quite good profits. Besides, there is the $1 million giveaway with 20 people taking home $50,000. To date, over 85,000 people have already contributed to this number and only 125 days remain in the battle.

Is now the right time to buy?

With SHIB gathering considerable appreciation as is with RXS, the question on everyone’s lips is, is it a good time to buy? In the case of the Shiba Inu token, the upward price movements, expanding market, and hot community stand to reason its upward trend might be rather persistent, more so if the wider market stays positive. This however does not excuse SHIB’s erratic fluctuation, and caution is advised for investors looking to buy in at the top. In contrast, Rexas Finance provides a more traditional subsidized opportunity with its successive presale and clear future outlook. It is positioned well as an ideal project for early backers due to its focus on DeFi and its highly interactive community. The attractive presale fee and promises of 4x returns are enough to help it seek the interest of growth-oriented investors.

Conclusion

Like many other investors, it is worth having a closer look at Shiba Inu and Rexas Finance due to the peculiarities these two have. If you are on the hunt for a well-established token that has millions of followers or you want an emerging star in the DeFi market that has a massive promise, this might be the time to think of investing in these assets.

Coinbase to delist non-compliant EU stablecoins under new MiCA regulations

  • The EU’s MiCA was introduced in June, but won’t take effect until December
  • Coinbase will deliver an update to its EU customers in November on how to switch their stablecoins to EU-compliant ones
  • Circle was the first stablecoin issuer to receive an e-money license under MiCA regulations

Crypto exchange Coinbase is to delist stablecoins that fail to meet the EU’s Markets in Crypto-Assets (MiCA) regulation by December 30.

The move, targeting customers in the European Economic Area (EEA), is part of the EU’s efforts to implement tighter controls on crypto assets. The EU’s crypto regulatory framework, known as MiCA, was introduced in June; however, it will take effect in December.

Under the new regulation, the EU requires stablecoin issuers to hold e-money authorization in at least one EU member state. The framework aims to protect European investors from fraud and risks while boosting innovation and economic competitiveness.

In a report from Bloomberg, a Coinbase spokesperson said:

“Given our commitment to compliance, we intend to restrict the provision of services to EEA users in connection with stablecoins that do not meet the MiCA requirements by December 30, 2024.”

Coinbase is expected to provide an update in November to its EU customers, giving them options to convert their stablecoins to EU-compliant stablecoins such as Circle’s USDC and Euro Coin (EURC).

In July, Circle, a crypto payments company, became the first stablecoin issuer to obtain an e-money license under the EU’s MiCA regulations.

Coinbase isn’t the only crypto exchange that’s taking steps to meet the EU’s requirements. Other platforms, including Bitstamp, OKX, and Uphold are already moving to limit access to stablecoins that fail to meet MiCA regulations, including Tether’s USDT.

In June, Bitstamp announced it was removing USDT to comply with MiCA.

First Telegram ICO Dogizen goes live, quickly hits $100k

Dogizen, the tap-to-earn game that’s attracting huge attention from the gaming community, has launched its highly anticipated presale.

The world’s first Telegram ICO, which brings the DOGIZ token to the over 950 million Telegram users, went live today, October 4, 2024 at 8am UTC.

Dogizen’s presale has attracted over $110k in under two hours, with DOGIZ priced at $0.00007 in the first stage.

Dogizen’s ICO: A new era for Telegram gaming

The global crypto community is growing at a breathtaking speed. However, the number of people who own crypto currently stands around 550 million.

In comparison, Telegram has more than 950 million users and the global mobile gaming community will be 1.9 billion players by 2027. Elsewhere, the T2E market cap is roughly $1.2 billion today while crypto gaming is just over $9 billion. All of these segments are forecast to experience significant growth.

Putting these numbers together suggests that Dogizen’s entry into the Telegram tap-to-earn market puts its right at the center of a potentially explosive ecosystem.

Dogizen makes it easy for ordinary users to join this nascent industry via its game. Now, with this first ICO within Telegram, Dogizen is tapping into a segment that could see it challenge and possibly outpace Hamster Kombat and Catizen among other TON-powered Telegram games.

DOGIZ is designed to add to the project’s long term success by moving Dogizen beyond the hype and speculation into a world of real utility. As well as its use in the rewards and airdrops, DOGIZ will play a big role in the Dogizen Universe.

The Dogizen Universe

Dogizen Universe is a platform that will offer several key features designed to empower both developers and creators as well as rewards for users.

Within the Dogizen Universe, a Developer SDK will allow for the creation and launch of gaming apps, with monetisation helping catalyze further growth.

A Launchpad and an arcade offering a central hub for everything Telegram gaming. Meanwhile, the ecosystem will benefit from a revenue-sharing opportunity from in-game ads and partnerships.

The Dogizen Universe, as the project’s whitepaper indicates, therefore envisions a whole economic ecosystem. Devs will be able to create and earn as gamers scoop in-game rewards while DOGIZ holders will benefit from the revenue-share model.

The DOGIZ presale is the first phase of this growth and innovation and early adopters will play a big role in bringing it to reality. But it also means an early entry for ICO participants as the tap-to-earn becomes one of crypto’s big plays.

Notably, all major TON blockchain tokens on Telegram have listed on Binance, the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange. This includes Notcoin, Hamster Kombat, and Catizen – the top 3 T2E projects by market cap. Dogizen, with 1.3 million players and growing, could be the next to list on the exchange.
