After entering the crypto sector, Meta is facing certain challenges.
In the last couple of days, the company's capitalization has fallen by $251 billion, while its share price has fallen by 28.69% in the last month.
Simultaneously, tokens with Meta's hyped Meta universe are demonstrating signs of growth, according to CoinMarketCap data.
Thus, Metaverse Future (METAF) added 1711.44% over several days, Meta Citi (METACITY) gained 275.13%, MetaPay (METAPAY) grew 206.52%.
It's worth noting that none of these three tokens were among the top 100 or even top 500 crypto-assets by market capitalization.
The reason for this success is that the creators of Meta-tokens are looking to capitalize on a popular trend.
It's a ploy to attract new investors who probably don't realize the distinction between Meta/Facebook tokens and AXS and MANA meta tokens.

Fidelity Launches Europe's Cheapest Bitcoin ETP In Frankfurt

And on Tuesday, the fund-management giant launched its first European spot bitcoin ETP on the Deutsche Bรถrse in Frankfurt.

Chainalysis Report: Illicit Addresses Received $14B in 2021
Though illicit addresses received an all-time high $14 billion worth of crypto last year, criminal activityโs share of cryptocurrency transaction volume has never been lower.
The $14 billion figure in 2021 was up from $7.8 billion of cryptocurrency value gained by illicit addresses the year before, according to a Chainalysis report published Wednesday. Still, these nefarious transactions accounted for 0.15% of crypto volume last year, down from 0.62% in 2020.

What is an initial game offering (IGO)?
Typically, developers arrange IGOs via token launch platforms.
As a rule, in order to invest in them, participants must lock in the platform's native token for a certain period of time.
Depending on the project, participants may get early access to game tokens or NFTs.
As with any investment, no guarantee that IGOs will turn a profit.
Before investing, be sure to do your own research and assess the potential risks.
For instance, find the website or social media of a game project to study its development plan.
Besides, you can check whether the project is supported by reputable investors or partners.

The number of illiquid bitcoins is rising almost twice as fast as new coins are being mined.
That is one of the fundamental reasons why the chances of a crypto-winter start are minor now.
For instance, during the bearish year of 2018, the situation was the opposite. New coin issuance then was twice as large as the growth of illiquid supply.
More precisely, long-term hodlers are creating benefits not only for themselves, but for the entire eco-system.
And that is a good potential for the global growth cycle to continue.

SAND token staking support added to Polygon
SAND staking has been around before, but only in Ethereum pools.
Now the staking option will also be available for tokenized SANDs on Polygon called mSAND.
To start staking tokens, SAND owners first need to connect their assets to Polygon via so-called "bridges."
The bridge itself in The Sandbox has already been integrated into the game.
Once connected to Polygon, users can choose a SAND/mSAND pair to tokenize assets.
The developers note that the process of approving the transaction can take from 20 to 30 minutes. Once approved, the wallet will be topped up with mSAND tokens.
Amid the news, the price of SAND jumped nearly 8% to $4.2 and the project's market capitalization rose to $4.5 billion.

Analysts explained the popularity of decentralized exchanges
Decentralized exchanges rapidly gaining popularity thanks to methods of distribution of the proceeds.
This opinion was expressed by Pedro Negron, the junior analyst of IntoTheBlock in his blog.
Specifically, he drew a parallel between the centralized Coinbase exchange and Uniswap, its decentralized counterpart.
Founded in 2012, Coinbase recorded its peak trading volume in May 2021.
Back then, the total amount of money on the exchange reached the $200 billion mark.
Uniswap is a younger site compared to Coinbase, which appeared in 2018.
Deployed on multiple sidechains at once, the exchange also recorded its peak in May 2021 and processed ~$78 billion then.
Here, however, lies a key difference from the centralized exchange model.
As Negron points out, commissions from trades go not to shareholders, but to so-called "liquidity providers."
These are the people who supply cryptocurrency to the public pool of the decentralized exchange, so that transactions on the platform take place with a lower spread.
For their service, the providers receive a percentage of commissions, which makes decentralized exchanges more attractive to investors and traders.
