Coinweb.ioThe Coinweb Daily Spin
The Daily Spin. ZK-Wednesday Edition. Zero. Knowledge. Proofs. Yesterday, three – I repeat, 3 – ZK Protocols raced to become the first to launch a ZK-based mainnet. Matter Labs won, successfully launching ZKSync’s “Era” mainnet for public use, followed by Polygon’s ZK-EVM rollup which also went live on mainnet; and Starkware, launched Ethereum-tested ZK-proofs on the Bitcoin blockchain. How coincidentally does such a big step forward for the entire industry happen all in one day? One thing’s ...
Coinweb.ioThe Coinweb Weekly Spin
The Weekly Spin. Sixteenth Edition. This week was a tough one for the markets, as Bitcoin held support at $26k but overall liquidity in the market remained low. In the spotlight was Binance, who are facing battles on all sides – with the EU regulators increasing their scrutiny causing the announcement halting SEPA transfers late September, card services for LatAm shuttering, and severing their partnership with Mastercard. Meanwhile, a report by hedge fund Brevan Howard claims that stablecoin ...

**The Daily Spin. Pre-Easter Friday Edition. **Coinweb publishes the wallet addresses of its token reserves and their intended usage in a medium post that asserts the team’s commitment to transparency and community, which can be viewed at the most recent entry of the “Ongoings at Coinweb” section. This information was released shortly after the capital investment made by SAVA and CWEB’s allocation of tokens into custodial management with Ceffu (formerly Binance Custodial).
Binance has remained a constant presence in the media, most recently announcing the addition of fiat off-ramps for its official non-custodial wallet, Trust Wallet, who has partnered with Ramp and MoonPay to bring ease of use and convenience to its 60 million active users. Meanwhile, Binance has initiated the cancellation of its Australian Financial Services derivatives license, which was promptly rescinded by the ASIC the following day. Dubai’s regulator has also requested Binance give information on their ownership and governance. This comes after multiple blows taken by the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchange from the CFTC and MSM, resulting in a 6% drop in market share and an inconsequential $1-2B exit of funds from the CEX in the past week.
In other news, surprisingly blockchain unique gaming wallets recorded an 8% slip for Q1, perhaps pointing to the sub-par solution space that currently exists. Hoskinson gives a public account of mistakes made by the Cardano Team, attempting to explain delays to expectations to its loyal community. AVAX introduces “Evergreen” subnets for institutional users. ASIC cancels Binance’s derivative AFS license at the request of the license holder, and the Dubai regulator demands information from Binance on its ownership and governance. Other notable jurisdictions with headlines include Singapore and Japan, each making announcements on policy decisions affecting the crypto space.
As the FEDNow and other CBDCs around the world close in on launching digital fiat, many have voiced legitimate concerns over its utility, unrestricted lack of privacy, and overreaching control of the public monetary system. Something to keep an eye on, as we are herded into a false understanding of the reasons that cryptocurrencies and blockchain were created – you can find a copy of the real reasons embedded into your Apple MacOS (in the form of the original Bitcoin whitepaper written by Satoshi Nakamoto). In TL today, we revisit Account Abstraction and ERC-4337, the positive impact of Bitcoin mining on environmental concerns, and a cost management perspective for crypto companies during this turbulent macroeconomic environment… here is our round-up of curated news and opinions (surely biased) from the world of Blockchain, keeping you informed into the market news with the most trending, in-the-know, and controversial topics. In the name of transparent, dissemination of information to keep you curious, inspired, and clinically sane…
