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.

Bitcoin supply on exchanges has been in a 9 month range since then...and so has the price!

Warren Buffett's partner compared cryptocurrency to an STD
Berkshire Hathaway vice chairman and longtime partner of Warren Buffett, Charles Munger, 98, said at the Daily Journal annual meeting in Los Angeles that he was proud not to have invested in digital assets.
The businessman said he views cryptocurrencies negatively for their use by extortionists, terrorists, and tax evaders.
According to Munger, U.S. authorities should immediately ban cryptocurrency, as they have done in China.
Interesting position, agree with him?
Personally I don't, to me it looks like a logical evolution of money, just like the internet will later be Web3.

Fundstrat predicts bitcoin to rise to $200,000.
The baby boomer generation isn't investing in bitcoin at the moment, Tom Lee, managing partner at investment research firm Fundstrat Global Advisors, told CNBC.
He believes that's the main reason holding bitcoin's price back at its current level.
If baby boomers start buying bitcoin en masse, its price will rise to $200,000, Lee argues.
"76% of all wealth in America is controlled by people over the age of 65. Nearly $100 trillion is owned by people thinking bitcoin is still a kind of hobby," explained the managing partner of Fundstrat Global Advisors.

Analyst predicted the surge of Bitcoin and Ethereum competitor
Cryptoanalyst Smart Contracter wrote the price of Avalanche first among the top 20 cryptocurrencies with the largest market capitalization would set a new historical high.
Avalanche is a cryptocurrency based on the platform of the same name.
According to the developers, it benefits from a higher transaction speed.
Thus, the official website of the project states 4.5 thousand transactions per second.
For comparison, bitcoin's rate is 6 transactions per second.
Analyzing the dynamics of altcoin, Smart Contractor concluded that AVAX not only rebounded from the Fibonacci level of 0.618, but also broke through the downtrend.
The expert is convinced Avalanche would demonstrate better results compared to its rivals in the future.

UAE authorities to grant licenses to cryptocompanies operating in the country
The United Arab Emirates hopes to attract more cryptocurrency companies to the country by issuing them special licenses.
The regulatory system is already in the final stages of development, authorities announced.
The new approach will take into account the experience of the U.S., U.K. and Singapore.
The Securities and Exchange Commission and the Central Bank will be in charge of overall control, while regional financial centers will deal with issuing licenses, Bloomberg said.
The official position of Abu Dhabi is to provide the most favorable climate, including for cryptocurrency mining.

JPMorgan cautions crypto investors about huge losses
The cryptocurrency market likely to further decline as the U.S. Federal Reserve raises interest rates, JPMorgan Chief Global Strategist David Kelly told Business Insider.
He said the Fed's action would end an era of "insane speculation" in the digital asset market.
"I expect a huge decline in the cryptocurrency market because there's nothing there," Kelly noted.
The JPMorgan strategist explained that when interest rates rise, investors quit investing in "crazy ideas" as they prefer projects that produce real economic returns.

Despite Recent Threats From Canadian Officials, βReal Cryptoβ or Decentralized Assets Cannot Be Frozen
Over the last week, thereβs been a lot of discussion about Canada βfreezingβ digital currency accounts that are associated with the Canadian truckerβs Freedom Convoy. Amid the topical conversation, it should be stressed that decentralized cryptocurrencies like bitcoin and ethereum, cannot be frozen directly within the network. However, the Canadian government can flag specific digital currency addresses and take it even further, by asking centralized entities like crypto exchanges and payment processors to freeze the funds.
