How Chinese Airdrop Hunters Massively Fake Worldcoin KYC in Africa

Image
Source: https://www.techflowpost.com/article/detail_12594.html Recently, Allen, who used to conduct Worldcoin KYC by hiring locals in Kenya and then reselling the accounts to Chinese users, has returned to China. The source of the products related to Worldcoin found on Xianyu (a Chinese online marketplace) can be traced back to intermediaries like Allen operating in Africa. However, this business has become challenging. With the official launch of Worldcoin and increased transparency in token prices, the gray area has disappeared. Moreover, due to the current political instability in Kenya, Allen has suspended the KYC business and returned to China. This business lasted for over three months, and at its peak, they were earning up to $3,000 a day at a location where iris verification was possible. But the most profitable period only lasted for two weeks in May when Worldcoin was gaining popularity in China. The sudden surge in new local users raised suspicions among the operators, leadi...

US Prosecutors Acquit SBF of Illegal Campaign Donations: Report

Sam Bankman-Fried has been acquitted of unlawful campaign contributions, one of the charges imposed on him. The Bahamas revealed that the extradition documents were exclusive of the charge.

According to a recent report, Sam Bankman-Fried, the ill-famed founder of the bankrupt crypto firm FTX, has been acquitted of unlawful campaign contributions– one of the allegations that the disgraced FTX CEO bore.

Terra Luna Classic To Burn 800 Million Tokens, LUNC And USTC To $1?

Image
Terra Luna Classic 800 Million USTC On Ozone Protocol Chain Ex-Terra Rebels developer group member Vegas submitted a governance proposal to the Commonwealth forum for discussion. He asserts 800 million USTC on-chain funds to be returned to the Terra Luna Classic community pool as the Ozone Protocol project is not actively following the proposed development plan. advertisement “To facilitate this, we ask the community fund to support us and underwrite Ozone indefinitely, unless a counter-proposal is passed to remove the said underwriting funds.” According to the proposal, the Ozone protocol was initially proposed by Terra co-founder Do Kwon and bootstrapped using funds from the community pool. The Ozone V1 and Ozone V2 saw high demand for their underwriting capacity. However, the Risk Harbor team has not utilized 1 billion UST (now USTC) fully as intended. Thus, the funds should return to the community pool. Alex Forshaw , former Terra Rebels and T...

Bitcoin price is down, but data signals that $30K and above is the path of least resistance

Image
Even with a price correction to $29,000, several Bitcoin price metrics show traders casting bets on a quick rebound. On July 24, Bitcoin (BTC) experienced a flash crash, plummeting to $29,000 in a movement now attributed to significant BTC holders potentially liquidating their positions.  Amidst the crash and market uncertainty, Bitcoin's three major trading metrics continue to project a bullish outlook, signifying that professional traders have not reduced their leverage longs through the use of margin and derivatives. Analytics firm Glassnode reported a surge in whales' inflow to exchanges, reaching its highest level in over three years at 41% of the total. This forceful sell-off from whales alarmed investors, especially in light of the absence of any significant negative events impacting Bitcoin in the past month. Notably, a major concern stems from the ongoing court cases by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) against leading exchanges, Binance and Coinbase....

Parrot Finance early backers to lose 90% of investment in contentious proposal

Parrot Finance is facing a redemption vote two years after raising over $80 million in a public token sale during Solana’s heyday. The proposed redemption program seeks to end Parrot’s governance token, PRT, with more than $80 million from its treasury set to be distributed among holders at $0.0045 per token. The price would drastically devalue the investment of early backers , causing them to recoup just one-tenth of their initial investment of $0.04 per token.  Critics claim that the team behind Parrot Finance could walk away with as much as $60 million under the proposed redemption plan while leaving other investors with only $12 million. Today in governance was a mistake news: @gopartyparrot team takes their $72m remaining in ICO funds and attempts to split it $12m to the token holders, $60m to the team. Oh they also early unlocked their tokens and will be voting it through regardless of what anybody else says pic.twitter.com/vmhDXJochQ — Spreek (@spreekaway) July 21,...

XRP price searches for a fresh bullish catalyst to trigger a move above $1

Image
XRP price rallied in excess of 100% after Ripple’s victory last week, but do fundamentals support a move to $1 and beyond? XRP (XRP) price booked an incredible 100% gain on the same day as the landmark ruling in the XRP securities case, but buyers are now struggling to hold on to these gains.  The price surge came after judge Analisa Torres of District Court of the Southern District of New York ordered that XRP sale to retail investors does not qualify the token as a security in the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission’s (SEC) case against Ripple. While the trading interest in XRP is reviving, the technical and network usage data hint at a short-term pullback. Traders flock to XRP but network growth stalls According to Coinglass data, the open interest volume for XRP futures contracts, which represents the total value of open bets for the asset, surged to its highest point since November 2021, reaching $1.19 billion on July 20.
