Amar Gautam and Hyperlinq Seek to Make Crypto Trading Tools Easy to Access

Amar Gautam has been involved in cryptocurrency for some time. As the CEO and founder of a firm known as Hyperlinq, Gautam seeks to consolidate multiple portfolios and provide standard financial tools to crypto traders, something that has long separated both divisions of finance.

Amar Gautam Wants to Provide a One-Stop Shop for Crypto TradersInitially born in India, Gautam also received his education in the country, and majored in computer science while in school. He began his first job right after college and developed software for both hedge funds and banks. Four years later, he began working as a specialized API trading builder.

It was around this time that the cryptocurrency space first began to gain steam, and he noticed that while many individuals began entering the digital currency arena, there weren’t that many trading tools available. This is what prompted him to start Hyperlinq in 2018.
SEC Chairman Gary Gensler: No Plan to Ban Crypto, It’s up to Congress

SEC Chairman Gary Gensler says that the SEC has no plan to ban cryptocurrencies as China has done. He noted that it would be up to Congress to make such a decision. Recently, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell similarly said that the Fed had no intention to ban or limit the use of cryptocurrencies.

SEC Won’t Ban CryptocurrenciesThe chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Gary Gensler, answered a question about whether there is a plan to ban cryptocurrency during a hearing before the U.S. House Committee on Financial Services Tuesday.

The four-hour virtual hearing titled “Oversight of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission: Wall Street’s Cop Is Finally Back on the Beat” was hosted by Committee Chairwoman Maxine Waters and Ranking Member Patrick McHenry.

What Is FTM?

Fantom is a directed acyclic graph (DAG) smart contract platform providing decentralized finance (DeFi) services to developers using its own bespoke consensus algorithm.Together with its in-house token FTM, Fantom aims to solve problems associated with smart-contract platforms, specifically transaction speed, which developers say they have reduced to under two seconds.The Fantom Foundation, which oversees the Fantom product offering, was originally created in 2018, with the launch of OPERA, Fantom’s mainnet, coming in December 2019.

The platform’s compatibility with Ethereum means that users can purchase an ERC-20 standard FTM, which is automatically converted to native FTM once received to their wallet. Another version of FTM is available on Binance Chain using its BEP2 standard. Only the native FTM can be used on the Fantom OPERA mainnet itself.

Fantom attempts to use a new scratch-built consensus mechanism to facilitate DeFi and related services on the basis of smart contracts.
The mechanism, Lachesis, promises much higher capacity and two-second transaction finalization, along with improvements to security over traditional PoS algorithm-based platforms.
Matching Ethereum, the project appeals to developers looking to deploy decentralized solutions. According to its official literature, its mission is to “grant compatibility between all transaction bodies around the world.”
Its in-house PoS token, FTM, forms the backbone of transactions, and allows fee collection and staking activities, along with the user rewards the latter represents.

The US Bests China as the World’s Biggest BTC Miner

Up to this point in time, China has always been the dominant country when it comes to mining bitcoin. Sadly, the region has done all it can to eliminate its standing in the industry, and now it looks like another nation – the United States – has opened itself up to become the world’s primary leader in the world of bitcoin mining.

China Has Been Outdone By the U.S.China was – at one point – home to about 65 to 75 percent of the world’s crypto mining projects. It also is the home of companies like Bitmain and Canaan Creative, which are arguably two of the world’s largest providers of bitcoin mining equipment. For a while, it looked like the nation was unstoppable in the industry… Until China became hellbent on stopping itself.

For reasons that are not entirely clear, China has seemingly sought to eliminate the mining presence from its turf. While it has been argued many times that the country is looking to become carbon neutral, it is also stated by others that the nation is looking to eliminate all future competition to its new digital yuan currency and having bitcoin getting mined to such a degree certainly puts the latter in a desperate position.

JPMorgan: Bitcoin Is Big Only Due to Inflation

Bitcoin has risen to $66,000 per unit over the past few days. The currency is trading higher than it ever has in roughly 12 years, and everyone seems to be ogling the asset that at one point was considered a bubble and a tool for crime.

Bitcoin Is Helping People Cope with the Wounds of FiatAs of late, there is plenty of speculation regarding what could have made bitcoin surge in such a way. Some believe it’s the fact that a bitcoin-based exchange-traded fund (ETF) is now available for trading on the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE). This is the first time such a product has been issued after several years’ worth of rejections by the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

However, according to analysts at financial powerhouse JPMorgan, this has nothing to do with bitcoin’s present price surge. Rather, people are getting involved in the market for one simple reason… They are worried about inflation.

US Senator Says Defi Is the Most Dangerous Part of Crypto – Urges Regulators to Clamp Down Before It’s Too Late

U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren has called on regulators to clamp down on decentralized finance (defi) and stablecoins “before it’s too late.” She said: “Defi is the most dangerous part of the crypto world … it’s where the scammers, the cheats, and the swindlers mix among the part-time investors and first-time crypto traders.”

US Senator Urges Regulators to Clamp Down on Defi and StablecoinsDuring a hearing of the Senate Banking, Housing, and Urban Affairs Committee Wednesday, U.S. Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) called on regulators to “clamp down” on stablecoins and decentralized finance (defi) platforms “before it is too late.”She brought up stablecoins tether (USDT) and usd coin (USDC). In response to Senator Warren, Alexis Goldstein, director of financial policy at Open Markets Institute, explained that stablecoins “may not always be backed one-to-one … as the assets backing those tokens are often not real dollars.”Warren pointed out that based on Tether’s own report, “only about 10% of the assets backing its stablecoin are real dollars in the bank. 90% is something else — not real dollars.” In addition, she stressed that the report “is not actually verified by a comprehensive audited financial statement or verified by any government regulator.”While noting that “stablecoins are not always stable,” Warren described: “It’s worse than that. In troubled economic times people are most likely to cash out of risky financial products and move into real dollars. Stablecoins will take a nosedive precisely when people most need stability, and that run-on-the-bank mentality could ultimately crash our whole economy.” The senator detailed:

Defi is the most dangerous part of the crypto world. This is where the regulation is effectively absent and — no surprise — it’s where the scammers, the cheats and the swindlers mix among the part-time investors and first-time cryptotraders. Shoot, in Defi someone can’t even tell if they are dealing with a terrorist.
Ethereum Ultra-Bullish For 2022 Following The Implementation Of EIP-1559 — Here’s Why

The supply of Ether, the native coin of the Ethereum blockchain network may be entering a deflationary regime just like it was projected with the introduction of EIP-1559. At the moment, the controversial Ethereum Improvement proposal that shipped along with other proposals in the London Hardfork Upgrade in August is removing a remarkable 6.28 ETH per minute.

In the 131 days since EIP-1559 went live on the Ethereum blockchain, almost 1.2 million ETH (currently worth over $4.4 billion) have been burned according to Ultrasound Money. At this rate, it is estimated that 3.3 million ETH will be burned in a year.
Unused Bandwidth Monetization Protocol PKT Cash Lands Bittrex Listing

PKT Cash, an entirely decentralized and open-source project that seeks to create a truly influence-free internet, is listing its native cryptocurrency, $PKT on Bittrex. The protocol allows its users to carry out microtransactions and buy, sell and trade bandwidth leases which are available to purchase now on Pancakeswap, and will be available to buy shortly on Bittrex.

The project was launched in 2020 with the aim of decentralizing the internet to bring free and equal access for all by developing local ISP networks where large corporations currently under-served people. Although built using Bitcoin’s codebase, PKT uses its own PacketCrypt to replace the SHA-256 hashing algorithm. It also processes transactions 10x faster than Bitcoin with very little fees.

Fed Chair Jerome Powell Hints at Aggressive Rate Hikes After Saying ‘Inflation Is Much Too High’

The 16th chair of the Federal Reserve, Jerome Powell said that America’s “inflation is much too high” on Monday, and he further explained that the U.S. central bank is willing to raise rates more aggressively. Off the heels of the first benchmark interest rate increase since 2018, Powell stressed that the Fed will “take the necessary steps” to ensure price stability is feasible. The Fed chair further said raising the federal funds rate by “more than 25 basis points” may be appropriate.

Powell Envisions ‘Raising the Federal Funds Rate by More Than 25 Basis Points’On March 16, 2022, the U.S. Federal Reserve increased the federal funds rate for the first time since 2018, and the central bank expects six more rate hikes this year. Inflation has jumped a great deal in the United States, in a short period of time, as the U.S. Labor Department’s February Consumer Price Index (CPI) report indicated that inflation has risen at the fastest pace since 1982.

Could Bitcoin Drop Another $10K? Analysts Weigh In

With the price of bitcoin dropping even further and further down (at the time of writing, the world’s leading digital asset is trading for just under $38,000), many are wondering what kind of rough factors await the crypto space.

How Much Lower Will Bitcoin Go?2022 has been a rough year for BTC and its altcoin cousins, especially when one considers the fact that roughly six months ago, the granddaddy of all crypto was trading for about $30,000 more than where it presently is. Now that the Fed has announced plans to potentially hike rates by as much as 50 basis points, some analysts believe bitcoin could fall to around $10,000… maybe even less.

This is a very dramatic drop, though it’s not implausible to assume this could happen not only because of the volatility that often comes with bitcoin, but also because the asset is now taking on more of a hedge form against inflation, which is at a 40-year high. These rate hikes are designed to control inflation, and with prices once again under control, bitcoin could find itself in a rather gray area.
Coinweb is one of the most promising projects

Now the price of CWEB token on exchanges Gate.io and Kucoin grows against the market. The project is the killer of DOT and similar services. Now its price is only $0.02, although at the start of trading a few months ago it was worth more than $0.2. Analysts agree that the token could be worth more than $0.5 by the fall, and will reach $1 in 2023.
