Do you already know this narrative? Just saw this from Ignas on Twitter but found an article of it here in public: https://captainaltcoin.com/liquid-restaked-token-lrt/ I don't know if it's his but feel free to read it. Just want to give an idea of what's gonna make a run in the coming bull run.

Pinangungunahan ito ng DBP at LBP at sabi na pinag-aaralan nila ito, which I think positibo naman kasi hindi lang naman Pilipinas ang nagkaka-interes sa tokenized bonds. Isa itong napakalaking hakbang para makilala ng mga institusyon dito sa 'Pinas ang halaga ng Blockchain at crypto. Hindi na lingid sa kaalaman ang pag investment sa government bonds gaya ng bonds.ph pero kung institusyon ang pag-uusapan mas napapanatag ang iba kasi mga malalaking kompanya na mismo ang nag-iinvest rito. Ano sa tingin niyo?

I know we've seen them surging the market and there are even discord bots something like that and whatnots that could connect to trade or other things. But, whoever here already used it, I'm just curious to know since I haven't really test the waters in this market. Thanks in advance!

This is somehow confusing considering NYDFS authorized Paxos¹ before and now they investigate it², and then SEC labeled them as unregistered security. They need to cooperate with one another tbh, they just want to stir the market with FUD. I wonder why the SEC labeled them as security when there's really "no expectations to profit" for BUSD.

I think this is the right board for discussion and I'm quite interested in this topic since there are lot debate on Twitter on what's the best regarding the two. This will be a self-moderated thread to avoid spam.

For you what's best with the two?

As you all know, Vitalik and his co-authors published this document regarding Soulbond tokens and it's potential to be the next frontier of social relationship of trust. I know this won't make you money since it's not transferrable to anyone else but if we're talking about achievements to prove your worthiness about a specific craft, this one will might be your friend in the digital world or web3 and so on and so forth. What do y'all think about this and what's your interest regarding Soulbond or it's greatest potential?

I guess almost knows what NFT stand for as "non-fungible tokens" but can't say for sure to others if they knew that NFT almost covers every sector including gambling. We know how gambling is taking a great leap year by year but do you think that NFT might be a primary reason in the future for a massive boost in the gambling industry?

There's a deleted article from the Secretary of the Treasury Janet Yellen in regards to digital assets. Good thing they got archived by the web archive here: https://web.archive.org/web/20220309014601/https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy0643

What do you think about this executive order? Was this the reason in regards to the recent pump in the market? I mean the EO was a positive thing for crypto, so it might be.

An NFT collection called Frosties has vanished and steal amounting $1.3 million in the digital collectibles (click the article below)¹. I think this wouldn't be the last and if by chance a bear market may happen this will just show who might survive and what are those legit projects that may thrive. What do you guys think, can we see more similar scenario like this?

Globe Fintech Innovations Inc., mother company of the leading mobile e-wallet Gcash, announced on Monday, December 6, its plans to consider a platform that will allow the users of its mobile wallet to invest in cryptocurrencies and local and global equities. The idea was disclosed by its CEO, Martha Sazon, in an interview with Bloomberg Television.

Isa na namang napakagandang balita para sa crypto lalo na sa ngalan ng adoption considering na ito pinaka-preferred na mobile wallet dito sa Pilipinas. As of June 2021 nasa tinatayang 46 million ang user nito kaya isipin niyo nalang ang magiging role nito sa adoption dito sa 'Pinas. Mukhang nalalapit narin na masubaybayan ito ng mga financial sector, lalo na ata BIR pagdating sa tax. Ano sa tingin niyo mga kababayan?

[What Is Chainlink?]

What do you think about Chainlink? Do LINK Marines actively getting more from this dip? Does it gonna get that 3 figures alone this year or by the early month of 2022 as other analyst predicted? In my opinion, crypto needs Chainlink and from here on out I guess there's still huge potential investing on LINK. Share your thoughts here.

What Is Chainlink?

Chainlink is a decentralized oracle network that is poised to play an important role in the real-world implementation of blockchain technologies. The purpose of this network is to provide input on a variety of external sources of data.

Although blockchain is great at what it does — providing a decentralized, secure ledger for digital transactions — it isn’t so great at taking input for things happening outside the blockchain. There are many “off-chain” forces that influence markets, including fiat currencies, credit cards and even the weather and sports scores. As a decentralized oracle, Chainlink can provide input to what’s known as smart contracts.

Looks not right on my end even if I set it to the depth of 2 or the default, it only shows who I have been trust with or sent feedback to. Can anyone confirm if there's something wrong with their trust network too? Been troubleshooting this for awhile now and I end up having the same result even if I set it on different depths.

I might change the default in the future; we'll see how this works. Your trust list is public.

Imagine if you've invested it in Bitcoin instead of a fad that can be replaced in just a year or even not in the course of a year because another one will be out. An iPhone 4 at that time is most likely the price of what the iPhone X's by now but look how much price depreciation it brought over time, always be good on your decision guys and gals.

[Beware!]

Just this day, a random one and I received this token on my wallet and curious to see things or if it has value but no luck. Researching it and there's been a lot of news regarding this lately, so, if you're one of the receivers don't ever interact on their website or claiming something, just let it stay on your wallet and don't do anything. Beware!

Who else thinks that these kind of thing may hit mainstream sooner or later? I don't know if this is something new but seen a  news from Decentral Games that they are launching a play-to-earn Metaverse poker. Others predict next to NFTs boom that it could the the Metaverse hype. Any thoughts?

Over time, we believe several projects will attempt to deliver play-to-earn architectures. However, due to the state of Decentral Games’ current product and community, DG is in a lucrative position to take advantage of this new wave in gaming with a first-mover advantage. We’ve already built metaverse poker, blackjack, roulette, backgammon, and slots, which are games enjoyed daily by our community through memorable events like live music performances, casino night competitions, poker tournaments, and more.

Kamakailan lang nasaksihan natin ang pagtanggap ng El Salvador sa Bitcoin at meron pang sumunod an Paraguay na nagpasa ng bill na tanggapin ang Bitcoin bilang isang legal tender o salaping umiiral (just found this online can't say for sure kung ito nga ba Ang depinisyon ng legal tender). Sa tingin niyo kung gagawing legal tender din ang bitcoin Pilipinas anong mga dahilang nito?

Napakarami ng skeptics lalo na sa scalability, volatility, environmental impact, not for everyday payments (kasi nga yung transaction fee peaking to ATH even $60 past 2017, though masosolusyonan ito ng LN), at marami pang iba. Sabihin na nating kailangang masoluyonan agad lahat ng ito pero it doesn't worked that way, it should be gradual or one at a time pero in term of adoption ano ang dapat unahin or kailangan bang most problem occurs for Bitcoin get solved first  before adopting it?

After becoming addicted to online casino games in March last year, he lost £40,000 in the space of a month, losing half of that in just one night.

After losing that money too, he found himself in massive debt, and contemplated taking his own life.

I don't know why they are caught up in this moment but I think people know the risks yet they still try. Was it appropriate for him to call the gambling firm wrong or he was right? (See the last part of the article or better read the 3 mins. article instead)

Who among these top 50 market cap coins DASH, ETC, XEM, XMR, NEO, IOTA, EOS and LTC will be the one to reclaim their previous all time highs? I am eyeing LTC will be able to break this in the next couple of weeks when BTC stabilized. Who you got here guys and gals?

I don't know how to put this but we've seen other alts continue to rally up this 2020 but I think it's different from what we've seen in 2017 were there are massive gains from alts. Can we still expect something like that especially this year 2021 and what do you think is the altcoins/s that may trigger the alt season (redundancy at it's finest)?

I wonder if theymos will ever come up with the same idea from the last year's "10th anniversary art contest" ? Well, a decade is something to celebrate for, I just want to reminisce how we've seen such talented forum members during that event and it's been year now.
