๐Ÿš€ MakerDAO Community To Debate Dropping Sky Brand

According to CoinDesk, MakerDAO's community is set to debate the potential abandonment of the Sky brand following a lukewarm reception to the re-brand and the successful launch of the USDS stablecoin. A formal governance poll is scheduled for November 4 to decide the future course of action.

The USDS stablecoin, introduced in August, aims to provide native token rewards and operate alongside the existing DAI synthetic stablecoin, which remains unchanged. On-chain data indicates that USDS has a supply of $1.2 billion and offers a savings rate of 6.5%. The community generally agrees that the launch was successful.

Sky co-founder Rune Christensen highlighted the community's strong affinity for the Maker brand, emphasizing its values of stability, security, and DeFi scale. He noted that there is significant commitment to holding the MKR token rather than upgrading to SKY. Christensen mentioned that three proposals are under consideration to address community concerns: continuing with Sky as the core brand, recentering the Maker brand with its original identity and reinstating MKR as the sole governance token, or refreshing the Maker brand to align with the current ecosystem while maintaining its established trust and stability.

Several contributors have expressed that the introduction of the SKY token, which replaced MKR as the core governance token under the Sky ecosystem, has not achieved the expected growth. In the past two weeks, SKY has declined by 23%, while the CoinDesk 20 index, which measures the performance of the largest digital assets, has risen by 10%. MKR, the governance token, has decreased by 24% over the year, according to CoinDesk data.

๐Ÿš€ Bitcoin's Golden Cross Signals Potential Bull Market

According to BlockBeats, on October 23, CoinDesk market analyst Omkar Godbole noted that Bitcoin's 50-day simple moving average (SMA) has begun to rise and is expected to surpass the 200-day SMA in the coming days, confirming the so-called 'golden cross.'

This pattern indicates that short-term price momentum is surpassing long-term momentum, which could potentially evolve into a bull market. Indicators based on moving averages are often criticized as lagging signals, which might mislead traders into the wrong side of the market. While this criticism is generally valid, the golden cross has historically signaled major bull markets.

Traders who held Bitcoin for a year after the first and second golden crosses, as well as the golden cross in May 2020, saw triple-digit percentage returns. Following the golden cross on October 30, 2023, Bitcoin's value doubled, reaching a new all-time high of over $73,000.

๐Ÿš€ ๐Ÿ”ฅ DOGE, XRP Lead Crypto Majors Decline as Bitcoin ETFs Suffer $80M Outflow ๐Ÿ”ฅ

According to CoinDesk: The cryptocurrency market experienced a downturn as Bitcoin ETFs saw a net outflow of $80 million, breaking a seven-day streak of inflows. Leading the decline were major tokens like Dogecoin (DOGE) and XRP, which fell 5% and 4%, respectively, while Bitcoin struggled to maintain momentum after failing to break the $70,000 resistance level.Key Highlights:Bitcoinโ€™s Struggle: Bitcoin dropped 1% after a failed attempt to rally towards $70,000. This influenced a broader market decline, with the CoinDesk 20 (CD20) index, which tracks the largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization, falling by nearly 2%.Major Tokens Drop: Dogecoin (DOGE) and XRP led the losses among major tokens, both giving up gains from earlier in the week. DOGE had rallied on Elon Muskโ€™s endorsement, while XRP benefited from positive fundamental developments.ETFs See Outflows: U.S.-listed Bitcoin ETFs saw $80 million in net outflows, with Ark Investโ€™s ARKB product losing a record $134 million.

However, concerns about liquidity and resistance levels remain.Mid-cap and low-cap cryptocurrencies saw little movement, though memecoin BONK and ApeCoin (APE) led losses, each dropping over 7%. Analysts noted that Bitcoinโ€™s failure to break past $70,000 resistance and a pause in stablecoin liquidity are major factors contributing to the marketโ€™s current stagnation.

๐Ÿš€ Chainlink And Swift Collaborate On Blockchain Payment Solution

According to PANews, decentralized oracle provider Chainlink is set to introduce a new blockchain payment solution for financial institutions. Chainlink has partnered with Swift, the global messaging network used by banks and institutions, to demonstrate a new integration that allows institutions to interact with blockchain technology using Swift messages.

At the Sibos conference hosted by Swift in Beijing (UTC+8), Chainlink co-founder Sergey Nazarov highlighted the practical value of this integration. He stated, 'We are currently in the pre-production phase, which means we are about to provide you with functionalities that can be truly implemented within your existing institutional systems.' Nazarov further explained that the solution leverages Swift's established messaging standards to execute pre-settlement and transaction confirmations, which are widely used in traditional finance (TradFi). Once confirmations are completed, Chainlink's infrastructure converts these messages into blockchain events, enabling financial institutions to lock assets on-chain and execute payment operations.

Additionally, Nazarov introduced the newly launched Blockchain Privacy Manager (BPM). This feature, combined with the new Swift integration, allows financial institutions to conduct sensitive transactions, including private tokenized asset trades and cross-border payments.
