2022-06-20 14:03:01 Circle has announced a euro-linked stablecoin - Euro Coin (EUROC)

That’s not the company's first (the existing ones are showing good results), which inspires confidence.

Circle noted that EUROC is a fully reserved token. The token is backed by euro-denominated reserves held at financial institutions "within the U.S. regulatory perimeter”.
That is, one of the most safe ways to secure

Circle hasn't specified (yet) whether the collateral is built solely from currency, or includes other instruments (bonds and other securities).

Euro Coin launched on the Ethereum blockchain as an ERC-20 standard token - scheduled to begin trading on June 30.

2022-06-19 21:03:00 Since the beginning of May, the largest liquidity pool for stETH has shrunk...

Reduced by a factor of seven!
Chaos in the market makes its "indispensable" contribution

The aggregate value of assets in Curve's ETH/stETH liquidity pool has dropped to about $620 million from $4.5 billion at the beginning of May.

This drop is largely due to the liquidation of positions in stETH by large crypto investors like Alameda and Three Arrows Capital.
According to Kaiko, the pool accounts for up to 98.5% of stETH trading volume Открыть/Комментировать

2022-06-19 09:02:00 Elon Musk was sued for $258 billion.

Keith Johnson, a simple U.S. citizen, decided to go after the American dream and rolled out a $258 billion lawsuit over Dogecoin against the Tesla founder.

The investor thinks that Dogecoin trading is "gambling" and "pyramid scheme", therefore US court should ban promotion of this coin, and he should pay 258 billion as damages and compensation (evidently, he experienced the strongest moral torment).

I thought, maybe you and I will draw up a collective suit against Musk, too?

P.S. By the way, DOGE is going down together with the whole market.

And in spite of many beginnings, DOGE was and still is a "fan" coin. Well, at least for now. Открыть/Комментировать
