            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Some believe that the CryptoPunks project marks the beginning of the CryptoArt movement. However, CryptoPunks will be Ethereum’s first non-fungible token (NFT) project. I do not know. But this project is impressive. Started by Matt Hall and John Watkinson of Larva Labs. The program can generate 10,000 tags that represent strange looking pixel characters with various features and can be traded on the NFT platform.</p><p>Another advanced aspect of Cryptopox is a way to face the concept of the ownership of digital art. In 2017, there was a remarkable digital artist. The Billa, which started a project of 5000 days in 2013, is one of the things. However, Larva Labs were introduced in the future and were published as NFT, which could not act a collection business.</p><p>The CryptoPunks can be viewed by anyone on the Larva Labs website and there is a complete page dedicated to each of them. However, there is only one owner of each punk.</p><p>The history of transactions and ownership is encrypted on the Ethereum blockchain. This system helped stimulate NFT’s ERC-721 standard, which sets the stage for the expansion of the NFT market. After the discovery of CryptoPunks, CryptoKitties was introduced by Dapper Labs, which defined the ERC-721 standard.</p><p>With the developers claiming 1000 for themselves, punks were initially claimed to get free on the platform. It took some time but ultimately the Punks were selling for thousands of dollars each. Last year, 8000 sales were recorded with an average price of 15.45 ether ($30,412) each. The total sales were $251 million, with 98% being conducted in the last few months.</p><p>According to TechCrunch, the sudden increase in punk increases the attention of the brave and directly related laboratories related to the increase in coding value. These factors are willing to be willing to be willing to be willing to be willing to be willing to be willing to be more willing to be more willing to be more.</p><p>NFT Collection of Crypto Punks</p><p>Cryptopunks have been set up as two developers for four years. They thought they were an idea for their pride that they needed “conceptual jump”. This project is considered justified in the Ryptoart direction of 4 years. This strange artwork has formed an exciting question for thoughts: Can you translate a few code lines in a meaningful possession?This is a unique example of this pilot job in the first typical auction house. On May 11, 2021, which is sold in the evening in New York City, Larva Labs and project founders offer and pione many 9 straps.</p><p>17 Million Dollar Sale for the NFT Collection Crypto Punk</p><p>On Tuesday evening, nine Crypte Toppu Hongha Portrait Group is less than $ 17 million to create another important milestone for NFT-ART sales.Matt Hall and John Watkinson NFT platform CO MacITCUR had a variety of pixelated portrait collections.One of the earliest NFT projects in EtherumBlockchain is a cryptographic pack platform.In 2017, characters generated by thousands of procedures are provided free of charge.</p><p>The strong NFT community evolved as “the annual punk since that”.In the middle of a month, I explode nearby.Last month TechCrunch covers some of the number of buyers groups to be a member of the Cryptopunks Club.Tuesday sales are important income for project developers. However, a few days after the biggest payment date will come: New project and skilled introduction. After the charge, Christie’s last proposal was 1.4.5 million or $ 16.96 million.</p><p>The NFT collection has been a few days a few days since the recent weekly sales reached a large premium, the cryptographic prices have increased significantly due to auctions.Though the lot sold for a far more significant monetary amount, when valued in Ethereum cryptocurrency denominations, the entire bundle sold for somewhat less than the previous extraterrestrial figure, which sold for 4,200 Eth (about USD 7.2 million at the time).</p>]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Since cryptos inception, which began with bitcoin in 2009 it has faced many issues related to; interoperability, scalability and sustainability. Cardano is a network that aims to tackle the matters in question. Cardano’s main principle is to create a network that supports the fight for full decentralisation. However there are a few hindrances in its way, one being the allocation of its native token $ADA.</p><p>Those that are new to the Crypto industry are often miseducated about the correct protocols they should take about their crypto holdings. We want to utilise this blog to touch on some topics that we believe every ADA holder should understand.</p><p>Due to the miseducation that new and already existing holders of ADA receive they may think that holding their tokens on exchanges such as Binance, is a relatively safe bet. However, this is counterintuitive. The ADA that you find yourself holding on exchanges isn’t yours.</p><p>Why do you ask?</p><p>For those of you holding your tokens on an exchange, you diminish your ability to have full ownership over your tokens because you haven’t established a private key for your wallet.</p><p>If an exchange was to go through maintenance related issues, those who buy and hold tokens through them, may not be able to access them when necessary. Exchanges often create certain rules that those individuals utilising their network need to abide by, and those rules are put in place to benefit them and not you.</p><p>An example of this is the Robinhood escapade, whereby they decided that those using their platform should be prevented from purchasing any more shares in GME.</p><p>So bear this in mind before holding your tokens on exchanges.</p><p>Question for those reading. Ask yourself, why you have invested in the Cardano network? For some of you, it may be for-profits for others it may be because you believe in the vision of a fully decentralised future. Or maybe it’s both.</p><p>Just to enlighten our readers, we thought you should know that those of you who keep your ADA on exchanges are hindering the progress of Cardano. The most compelling feature that sets this network apart from every other is its determination to bring decentralisation to the forefront of our society. This can only be achieved by ensuring that a single entity doesn’t control a majority of the stake.</p><p>Again, as mentioned above, miseducation is what often leads people to exchanges. When you decide to leave your ADA on exchanges you aren’t actively doing anything with it. Exchanges capitalise on this by doing what you should do and staking your ADA. This creates a disparity where exchanges can control a large number of tokens, which allows them to do as they please.</p><p>One would hope that they would positively use these large holdings, however, this is often not the case.</p><p>Contrary to popular belief, exchanges have their financial gains in mind and often neglect those of the individuals who entrust them with their tokens.</p><p>Two scenarios occur when you hold tokens on an exchange, and unfortunately, none of them is beneficial for you in any way, shape or form.</p><p>Scenario #1. You buy ADA tokens on an exchange, but for whatever reason, you decide not to stake. This now grants exchanges the power to stake your tokens for you. However, instead of you receiving the 5–6% rewards allocated for delegators, the exchange with-holds these rewards for themselves.</p><p>Scenario #2. You take the initiative of staking for yourself, but you are left with minimal options. Due to your tokens being held on an exchange you are only allowed to stake to the pools that they operate. This enables them to receive a ton of rewards, whilst you are left to receive the bare minimum.</p><p>In addition to this exchanges usually have excessively high pool fees. This often leads to you receiving fewer rewards compared to if you were to create your wallet and stake using your address.</p><p>This new and innovative industry can be very daunting for those new to the space. Many people are unaware of the risks that they are exposed to when they decide to buy and hold tokens with exchanges. Furthermore, they fail to capitalise on opportunities that are available to them through Cardano’s staking mechanism.</p><p>All in all, for you to keep your ADA tokens safe, we advise everyone to create Cardano wallets that will allow you to be in full control of your tokens and their allocation.</p><p>To ensure the realisation of decentralisation and a future that enables you to be in control of your finances obtaining a wallet of your own is essential.</p><p>For this vision to come to fruition it is imperative to understand that your ADA is needed within the Cardano ecosystem, and exchanges won’t be as beneficial to you and the mission as you might be led to believe.</p>]]></content:encoded>

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If we do it right, crypto education could be the key to boosting financial empowerment and increasing widespread acceptance across Latin America.Around 15% of the world’s supply of Bitcoin (BTC) was in circulation in Latin America in October 2021, according to estimates. However, according to a recent survey published by Crypto Literacy, 99 percent of Brazilian and Mexican respondents failed a basic crypto literacy assessment. Crypto adoption is well underway in the region — even on the rise — but many people still lack a fundamental knowledge of the technology behind it and its applications.</p><p>When this lack of fundamental crypto literacy is evaluated in the context of Latin America’s growing economies, where blockchain technologies have real-world applications, it becomes a serious worry.People in Latin America who aren’t crypto-literate risk missing out on stablecoins, which can safeguard them from the region’s rapidly rising inflation. As well as decentralised applications (DApps), which give unbanked people access to financial services through their smartphones. Cryptocurrencies provide a faster and less expensive way to move money across borders in nations where remittances are a key part of the economy.</p><p>So, how can we make this life-changing technology more accessible to Latin America’s most neglected populations? Education. Using education to open the door to mainstream adoption Financial literacy, trust, and safety are three fundamental barriers to mainstream crypto adoption that education has the capacity to address. Financial acuity Financial literacy, or the lack thereof, is not only a barrier to crypto acceptance; it is also a barrier to regular bank adoption. As of August 2021, about half of the population in Latin America and the Caribbean was unbanked, meaning they lacked access to a bank account or other financial services. In addition to residing far away from financial institutions, many people say they are unbanked because they lack trust in them. There is typically a lack of comprehension where there is a lack of trust. Trust From personal experience, it’s not uncommon in Mexico to hear stories of parents advising their (adult) children to exchange their savings for US dollars and store them in a safe rather than entrusting their profits to a banking institution. We can inspire more trust in financial institutions as a critical pillar for fostering mainstream adoption by improving financial literacy around both broad financial ideas and more focused blockchain-related topics.</p><p>Safety Education inspires trust in more ways than just financial institutions. It’s also about believing in yourself: People who are unfamiliar with the institutions and technologies with which they engage are more prone to make dangerous financial decisions. They are well aware of this. Education can act as a safety net by informing people what regulations are in place to protect them and how financial services fit into those frameworks. Teach where it counts the most Cryptocurrency has the ability to revolutionise the world, and those who master it will have a significant advantage. Given the importance of education, it’s critical that the crypto world targets audiences deliberately in order to perpetuate existing disparities. Remote and underserved regions, as well as those who do not have access to traditional education, should be in the forefront of blockchain education recipients.We must offer mobile-friendly educational possibilities for distant villages so that people may access learning materials from their phones without having to drive hundreds of kilometres to the nearest city.For individuals with less education, multimedia educational tools that avoid the requirement for reading without presuming a high level of underlying knowledge should be considered.Mentorship programmes and role models for women are critical in developing welcoming and inclusive settings that are specifically tailored to attract women to cryptocurrency.Women’s interest in cryptocurrency is growing, yet the education gap persistsWe should provide resources in local languages for global audiences, such as Spanish and Portuguese in Latin America, to ensure that we reach the broadest potential audience.We must avoid erecting financial obstacles to education for everyone involved, trusting on the long-term benefits of expanding user bases through free and open education.Blockchain technology and cryptocurrencies were created to disrupt established financial power structures. They have the ability to significantly increase Latin America’s financial inclusion and freedom. It’s no surprise, then, that cryptocurrency acceptance is already on the rise. However, when new technology becomes more widely adopted, we run the risk of leaving the most vulnerable people behind. This is something that education can help with. Education can help people gain confidence in this quickly evolving technology by instilling knowledge that allows them to interact properly with these new tools. Financial exclusion can be broken through education.

            <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This Fiscus Friday was started off by Kevin with a quick update/recap on where we are as a whole, followed by an introduction from Thiago, our head of marketing.</p><p>| Kevin’s Update</p><p>| Thiago’s Introduction</p><p>Thiago started his career as a chef which opened his eyes to many different cultures and ideals, and ultimately led to him pursuing a Master’s degree in marketing and has been in the industry since 2011. He has worked in satellite communications, telecommunications, insurance, app/startup building, and large media groups, all with the focus on growth and building. His expertise will be paramount to the growth and success of Fiscus.</p><p>Thiago’s Discord: TKubs#2963</p><p>| Phil’s Update — 2 major announcements</p><p>| Dony Update</p><p>We are currently in the process of verifying addresses. With the ability to batch send the tokens, we can get the pFISC tokens sent out pretty quickly. Members can expect the NFT airdrops to happen after the OG token airdrop has concluded. We are putting together the final pieces of how the whitelist launch will work, and details about that launch will be available shortly.</p><p>Q: When I view my NFTs on opensea, my five level 1’s all have the same contract address and token id. How is that so? How can we differentiate them apart?</p><p>Please send a DM for a more thorough explanation of why this occurs.</p><p>Q: Why did Fiscus decide to sell so many pre-launch tokens? Between the whitelist and NFT drops, it seems like an incredibly large number. Was there some economic or tokenomic reason for this?</p><p>Absolutely. From the start we had a number in our minds of what we wanted to have in the treasury to jumpstart growth. The whitelist and NFT sales were a way to bootstrap this growth.</p><p>Q: Will you be needing new addresses that are Avalanche compatible from all white list members to distribute the PFiscus?</p><p>If the address you gave is via a MetaMask wallet, then it is compatible with the AVAX network. However, if it’s an Eth wallet, you would need to submit a new address that is AVAX compatible.</p><p>Q: The sentiment right now pertaining to DAOs is that they are a “dying breed.” What are your thoughts on this? How will Fiscus overcome this sentiment?</p><p>We will overcome it because we are unlike any other DAO that has been created thus far. Communicating to people about how we are different and why we will succeed will be key to overcoming that sentiment. We are so much more than just a rebase token and we believe it will attract investors in the DAO space who may be looking for a safe haven in the sea of collapsed DAO projects. We have the opportunity to learn from all of their mistakes and create something incredible.</p><p>Q: Is the crash site hotel still happening?</p><p>Yes, we actually have a meeting next Wednesday with Angelo of Crash Site. We are definitely still moving forward with that project.</p><p>Q: Why would projects need us as opposed to traditional finance?</p><p>There are a lot of projects that don’t qualify for traditional financing — either because they’re in a geographical location where they can’t receive the financing because of a level of risk or they’re in industries with varying levels of risk. There are also projects that are brand new ideas that will have trouble getting banks to lend to them. This is where Fiscus comes in.</p><p>Additionally, for projects that do qualify for traditional financing, Fiscus may be able to still offer better terms and be seen as a more attractive source of funding.</p><p>Q: What price do you predict at launch?</p><p>(Great question — first time hearing this one) It’s difficult and unwise to give a prediction, so let’s just say As High As Possible (AHAP).</p><p>Q: What price do you predict long term?</p><p>AHAP²</p><p>Q: Can we get more information/details on Fiscus+?</p><p>This will be announced in tandem with the Liquidity Squeeze Thesis, ideally by next week.</p><p>If you’re interested in learning more about Fiscus DAO here are their official channels:Twitter: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc" class="dont-break-out" href="https://twitter.com/FiscusDAOWebsite">https://twitter.com/FiscusDAOWebsite</a>: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc" class="dont-break-out" href="https://fiscusdao.finance/Official">https://fiscusdao.finance/Official</a> Medium: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc" class="dont-break-out" href="https://fiscusdao.medium.com/Discord">https://fiscusdao.medium.com/Discord</a>: <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow ugc" class="dont-break-out" href="https://discord.gg/fiscusdao">https://discord.gg/fiscusdao</a></p>]]></content:encoded>
