Track market-moving stories before they get noisy

The Lisk Chain shuts down on 31 October 2026. If you hold anything on it, you need to withdraw it to Ethereum before that date.

Action required: withdraw all assets from Lisk Chain by 31 October 2026. If you hold LSK, ETH, stablecoins, bridged tokens, DeFi positions, or anything else on Lisk Chain, withdraw it to Ethereum as soon as possible. After 31 October there is no way to withdraw or recover assets left on the Chain.

This post covers who needs to act and how to withdraw each type of asset, step by step.

Quick answer Withdraw all assets from Lisk Chain to Ethereum by 31 October 2026. This applies to every asset, not just LSK. Staked LSK must be unlocked and unstaked first. The emergency unlock penalty has been waived. Unstaking adds a 3-day waiting period. Bridging from Lisk Chain to Ethereum takes around 8 days. Allow at least 11 days in total if you are staking. We recommend starting immediately. LSK already on Ethereum or on an exchange needs no action. Who needs to act Where your assets are What to do LSK on Ethereum or on an exchange No action required. LSK, ETH or stablecoins in a wallet on Lisk Chain Bridge them to Ethereum. Start as soon as possible, at least 8 days before 31 October. Staked LSK Unlock and unstake, wait 3 days, then bridge. Start as soon as possible, at least 11 days before 31 October. DeFi positions on Lisk Chain Close the position, then bridge the assets. Start early. Some protocols may have their own timelines. If you are not sure what you hold on Lisk Chain, search each wallet address you use on a Lisk Chain block explorer and check the token balances and contract interactions listed there.

How to withdraw staked LSK Staked LSK does not return to your wallet on its own. You have to unlock and unstake it. The emergency unlock penalty has been waived following the passing of the Lisk DAO proposal, so there is no cost to unstaking now, only a 3-day waiting period.

Go to the Lisk Portal and connect your wallet. Unlock and unstake your LSK. There is no penalty. Wait 3 days. Your LSK is released back to your wallet on Lisk Chain. Bridge it to Ethereum using the steps in the next section. Unstaking and bridging take around 11 days together, so anything started in the final days of October may not complete in time. We recommend starting immediately.

How to bridge LSK, ETH and stablecoins to Ethereum All withdrawals from Lisk Chain go through a bridge to Ethereum. Use bridge.lisk.com. It is the only bridge that still works, so do not rely on any other route.

It follows the standard Ethereum L2 withdrawal, which runs in three steps over around 8 days.

On the bridge, connect your wallet, set the route from Lisk to Ethereum, select the asset and the amount, and confirm the withdrawal. About an hour later, return to the bridge and submit the "prove" transaction on Ethereum. The 7-day countdown starts at this step, not the first one, so do not skip it. After the 7-day challenge period, submit the final transaction to claim your assets on Ethereum. You will need a small amount of ETH on Ethereum to pay for the prove and claim transactions. Repeat the process for each asset you hold.

How to withdraw DeFi positions Assets inside a liquidity pool, a lending market or a vault cannot be bridged directly. Withdraw from the protocol first so the underlying tokens are back in your wallet, then bridge each token as described above.

Check the protocol's own announcements too. Some projects on Lisk Chain are migrating to Celo and may set their own deadlines for closing positions. Those deadlines may fall before 31 October.

Timing, in plain terms Unlocking and unstaking takes 3 days. Bridging takes around 8. Together that is around 11 days, assuming every step goes through on the first attempt.

The chain closes on 31 October 2026. A withdrawal that is still in its 7-day challenge period when the chain closes may not complete. We recommend starting immediately, not in the final weeks.

After 31 October Once Lisk Chain shuts down, the bridge to Ethereum closes with it. Assets left on the chain at that point become inaccessible. There is no recovery process, no claim window and no support route that can restore them afterwards.

Start your withdrawal now Unstaking and bridging take around 11 days together. Anything started in the final days of October may not complete in time.

Open the bridge

LSK continues its rally, surging 775% in 24 hours.

In an unexpected turn of events, Lisk Chain, which upgraded to an Ethereum [ETH] Layer 2 mainnet in 2024, has announced its plans to shut down.

Schedule for 31 October 2026: the Lisk Chain, along with the DAO governance system, staking, and all the governance-related programs running on the chain, will all be closed down.

However, the token, LSK, itself is not being discontinued.

Why would holders face the major brunt of this shutdown? Now this has become a huge problem for existing holders. This is because if the tokens were already on Ethereum or sitting on an exchange, the shutdown would not require the holder to migrate them.

But since LSK is sitting on the Lisk Chain, the holder would need to move it before the shutdown.

In that process, staked LSK first needs to be unstaked, which involves a three-day waiting period, and then the tokens would have to go through the bridge process to Ethereum.

This might take at least another seven days because of the optimistic rollup challenge period.

LSK experiences an exit pump Needless to say, this has impacted the token price action, which in technical terms can be referred to as an “exit pump.” At press time, the LSK was trading at $0.9428 after a hike of 344.5% in the past 24 hours.

So given the current scenario, the token is expected to rise sharply despite deteriorating or disappearing long-term fundamentals. Here, the idea is that traders get a chance to buy the token and earn profits.

However, this won’t last long, as the RSI lying in the overbought zone and the candles crossing the upper band of the Bollinger Bands suggest that there is incoming major selling pressure from the bears.

Source: Trading View As Pricesync’s founder put it best when he said,

Here it’s doing clear exit pump cause MM got the point after all of this there will be no future demand in $LSK

Lisk Chain is not alone Well, Lisk Chain is not the first one to shut down. As in the past two months, BitMEX, the crypto exchange co-founded by Arthur Hayes in 2014, announced plans to shut down after 11 years. At the same time, BitMart has also announced its closure.

Then DeFi aggregator Odos has also been permanently shut down on 30th July. And, at last, ABFinance, a U.S.-compliant crypto platform founded by former Bybit co-CEO Helen Liu, has suspended operations and canceled its planned launch just months after being announced in March 2026.

All these suggest that the crypto market is going through a lot of strain, and regulatory delays are further putting a lot of pressure on the market.

Final Summary Lisk’s DAO governance-related programs running on the chain and staking will all be shut down. Lisk Chain has joined other firms that decided to wind down their operations in H2 2026. 

Aster DEX has added perpetual futures contracts for Lisk (LSK) and Power Ledger (POWR) to its trading roster, offering traders up to 5x leverage on both pairs. The platform announced the listings on September 13, 2026, continuing its pattern of rapid altcoin expansion across its derivatives marketplace.

For context on scale: Aster reportedly runs between 558 and 590 perpetual markets and adds over 40 new markets every month. LSK and POWR are the latest additions to a catalogue that already spans major crypto assets, tokenized equities, and commodities, all settled in USDT-margined contracts.

What traders are actually getting The 5x leverage cap on these listings is deliberate. Aster applies that ceiling to lower-cap altcoins as a risk management measure, reserving higher leverage for more liquid, established assets.

Both LSK and POWR already have spot market presence across various exchanges, so the perpetual listings give traders a way to express directional views, or hedge existing positions, without touching spot markets. The POWERUSDT market on Aster had already been trading with 5x leverage prior to this announcement, which suggests demand for POWR derivatives existed before the formal listing.

No open interest or volume figures for the newly launched LSK and POWR contracts were publicly available at launch.

Lisk’s complicated moment The timing of the LSK listing is worth noting. Lisk’s mainnet is scheduled to shut down on October 31, 2026, roughly six weeks after this perpetual contract went live. Post-shutdown, LSK transitions into a loyalty and rewards token operating primarily on the Ethereum and Base blockchains.

Power Ledger operates in a different corner of the crypto landscape. The project focuses on peer-to-peer energy trading and real-world energy marketplace solutions, giving POWR a use-case narrative tied to physical infrastructure rather than pure speculation.

The bigger picture at Aster DEX Aster’s growth strategy is essentially the opposite of selective. Rather than curating a small number of high-liquidity pairs, the platform lists aggressively and lets trading activity sort out which markets gain traction. The community-driven listing framework it uses, called AOS-2, gives the model a governance layer, though the practical result is a catalogue that expands at a pace most centralized exchanges would consider impractical.

LSK and POWR, as established tokens with existing spot markets, are better positioned than typical meme coin listings to attract genuine two-sided interest.

Bitcoin hafta sonuna 77.000-77.400 dolar aralığında sıkışarak girerken altcoin piyasasında çok daha sert hareketler yaşanıyor. Büyük hacimli coinlerin çoğu yatay veya hafif ekside kalırken Lisk (LSK) son 24 saatte %325 yükseldi. Tokenın son bir haftadaki kazancı ise %800’e ulaştı.

Bu hareket Lisk’i piyasa değeri açısından ilk 100 içine taşırken, hafta sonunun en dikkat çeken altcoinlerinden biri haline getirdi.

Bitcoin Neden 77.000 Dolarda Sıkıştı? Bitcoin, Eylül ayının ilk haftasında 82.400 dolara kadar yükselerek mayıs ortasından bu yana en yüksek seviyesini gördü. Ancak güçlü istihdam verisinin ardından gelen satışlarla yeniden 79.000 doların altına indi.

Sonraki günlerde BTC, 80.000 ile 77.600 dolar arasında hareket etti. Üst sınırdaki yükseliş denemeleri kalıcı olmadı. Alt tarafta ise alıcılar 77.600 dolar civarındaki desteği korudu.

Perşembe ve özellikle cuma günü bu görünüm bozuldu. Bitcoin önce 77.000 doların altına sarktı. Ardından ABD’nin Ağustos ayı TÜFE verisi açıklandı ve ilk tepki sert oldu.

TÜFE Sonrası Bitcoin Nasıl Hareket Etti? Verinin ardından Bitcoin kısa süre içinde 76.000 dolara geriledi. Böylece birkaç haftanın en düşük seviyesine indi.

Ancak satışlar uzun sürmedi. Alıcıların devreye girmesiyle BTC yaklaşık bir saat içinde 79.800 dolara kadar yükseldi. Bu hareketin ardından yeniden satış geldi ve Bitcoin 77.000 dolar bölgesine döndü.

O zamandan beri fiyat 77.000-77.500 dolar aralığında hareket ediyor. Bitcoin’in piyasa değeri de CoinMarketCap verilerine göre 1,55 trilyon doların altına geriledi. BTC dominansı ise %58,7 seviyesinde bulunuyor.

Büyük Altcoinlerde Son Durum Ne? Ethereum cuma günü yaklaşık 2.700 dolara kadar yükselse de bu seviyede tutunamadı. ETH şimdi 2.500 doların üzerinde kalmaya çalışıyor.

BNB son 24 saatte %1,3 düşerek 722 dolara gerilerken XRP 1,40 doların altında kalmaya devam ediyor. SOL, TRX, DOGE, XMR ve LINK de hafif kayıplarla işlem görüyor.

Bazı altcoinlerde ise tablo farklı. RAIN %2’nin üzerinde yükselirken CRO %3, PUMP ise yaklaşık %6 değer kazandı. BTW ise %11’lik yükselişle 0,55 doların üzerine çıktı.

Ancak hiçbirinin hareketi Lisk’in yanına yaklaşamadı.

Lisk Neden Gündemin Zirvesine Çıktı? Lisk (LSK) son 24 saatte %325 yükselerek yaklaşık 0,82 dolara ulaştı. Tokenın haftalık kazancı ise çok daha çarpıcı: %800.

Bu yükseliş Lisk’i piyasa değeri sıralamasında ilk 100’e taşıdı ve yaklaşık 92. sıraya yerleştirdi.

Bu ölçekte bir hareket, LSK’yı hafta sonunun büyük hacimli altcoinlerinden tamamen ayırıyor. Bitcoin ve Ethereum gibi büyük varlıkların yatay seyrettiği bir dönemde Lisk’in birkaç gün içinde yüzlerce puanlık yükseliş göstermesi dikkatleri yeniden düşük piyasa değerli altcoinlere çevirdi.

Kripto Piyasasının Toplam Değeri Ne Kadar? Toplam kripto para piyasasının değeri de büyük bir değişim göstermedi. CoinMarketCap verilerine göre toplam piyasa değeri yaklaşık 2,64 trilyon dolar seviyesinde bulunuyor.

Bu tablo, genel piyasanın güçlü bir yön aramadığını gösterirken Lisk’in yükselişinin daha geniş bir piyasa rallisinden ziyade coin özelinde yaşanan sert bir hareket olarak öne çıkmasına neden oluyor.

Bu içerik genel piyasa verilerine dayanır ve yatırım tavsiyesi değildir. Kendi araştırmanızı yapmanızı öneririz.

Serenity: If Celestial lists independently, its valuation could reach $6 billion to $10 billion thanks to the potential of its CPO business.

Serenity posted on social media that if Celestial (which has since been acquired by Marvell) had remained an independent company and listed in the U.S. market at the time, its valuation could have reached $6 billion to $10 billion. Serenity noted that Celestial had previously projected its revenue would hit $5 billion in 2028 (annualized based on the fourth quarter) and climb to $10 billion in 2029, adding that the firm is a core participant in co-packaged optics (CPO) projects for hyperscale cloud providers. By comparison, Celestial’s revenue in the second quarter of 2026 was nearly zero. Marvell has stated that the unit’s revenue and profit contribution post-acquisition was “not material”, with a quarterly loss of roughly $12.5 million, translating to an annualized loss of about $50 million. Serenity argued that judging Celestial solely by its current quarter price-to-sales (P/S) ratio and $12.5 million quarterly loss could label it a “worthless meme stock”; however, factoring in its qualification cycle and potential hyperscale cloud CPO project opportunities in 2028, its fair valuation should range from $6 billion to $10 billion. Serenity further pointed out that how to evaluate hard tech companies still in the early stages of customer qualification and commercialization highlights a core divergence between U.S. and European markets and cultures. It holds that for such firms, future revenue potential from large-scale commercialization and progress in customer qualification are far more worthy of attention than current quarterly revenue and losses.

Claude Quota Mysteriously Drained? Hackers Begin Stealing Login Sessions, Even 2FA Can’t Stop Them

Beating AI News: Anthropic is sending security alerts to select Claude users after the company discovered hackers stealing Claude login sessions from malware-infected devices to access accounts and deplete user quotas. Users on Reddit have already shared screenshots of the alert emails they received. Unlike stolen passwords, the compromised assets are already-authenticated browser sessions, which let attackers impersonate users directly without re-entering passwords or completing two-factor authentication (2FA). One affected user noted they logged in via Google and had 2FA enabled, yet their browser cookies and session IDs were still stolen together. Anthropic named several information-stealing trojans in the email, including Windows-based Vidar, LummaC2, StealC, RedLine, Acreed, and Mac-based Atomic Stealer (AMOS). These are all malware designed to steal browser cookies, passwords, and other data, not security flaws in Claude itself. The user added they had previously downloaded pirated software, which likely led to the infection. Anthropic said it has terminated detected suspicious login sessions, removed saved payment methods from affected accounts, and resolved related unauthorized charges. The company also emphasized that changing passwords alone will not fix the issue—if malware on the device is not removed, newly generated login sessions may still be stolen.

The Trump administration has frequently intervened in financial markets, and the European Central Bank (ECB) fears this "claw" could extend to the Federal Reserve.

ECB officials have recently grown increasingly concerned over the US government’s frequent interventions in foreign exchange and Treasury markets. Sources familiar with the matter said that during last week’s Jackson Hole Symposium, Federal Reserve officials proactively reached out to reassure their European counterparts, committing to upholding existing international cooperation arrangements. However, given the Fed’s institutional independence from the US administration, Fed officials cannot guarantee that the Trump administration will not abruptly reverse course. European officials are particularly focused on recent financial market operations by the US Treasury. On August 1, the US Treasury intervened in FX markets by selling euros and buying yen, and European sides expressed dissatisfaction over the US failure to provide advance notice of such operations as is customary. Additionally, US Treasury Secretary Bessent’s recent expansion of long-term Treasury repurchase operations has also sparked European officials’ concerns over the growing blurring of lines between fiscal, exchange rate and monetary policies. European officials further warned that if the US administration continues to deploy financial tools for economic and trade goals, markets could start questioning the Fed’s policy independence and the stability of the US dollar swap lines. There are also worries that the US government may further pressure the Fed to directly intervene in Treasury markets in the future. No signs have emerged that the dollar swap arrangements will change. New Fed Chair Kevin Warsh has recently stepped up communication with European policymakers, and his performance in international financial cooperation has drawn relatively positive feedback from European officials.

China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) supports the rollout of AI applications: FDE on-site presence, token purchases, and computing power voucher issuances.

Beating AI Express (Insight): China’s Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT) has launched a special initiative to cultivate AI application service providers. Local governments are encouraged to leverage measures such as first-purchase and first-use policies, and risk compensation to boost procurement of large models, intelligent agents, and Token services, while using tools like "computing power vouchers" to cut computing costs. The MIIT will also build a national resource pool for AI application service providers, targeting over 2,000 such providers by the end of 2026 and no fewer than 3,000 by the end of 2027. These providers mainly assist enterprises in rolling out AI projects, with services covering pre-consultation, solution design, system development, integration and delivery, as well as post-launch operation and maintenance and security governance. The policy also specifically highlights FDE (Field Deployment Engineers), encouraging service providers to form FDE teams to work directly at user sites to resolve project implementation challenges. Local authorities will also open real business scenarios, organize supply-demand matching, and convert high-frequency, essential business needs into standardized AI products that can be delivered repeatedly.

OpenAI rolls out results-based pricing: Some major clients only pay when the AI delivers actual results.

Beating AI News reports that OpenAI has in recent months introduced a new payment model to some of its large enterprise clients: customers only pay once AI has fully completed their tasks. The Information notes that use cases already implemented include customer service. Businesses can pay based on the actual customer service tasks AI completes, rather than being billed solely by tokens, API calls, or seat counts. OpenAI has not disclosed specific client names, pricing details, or the criteria for defining "task completion," and declined to comment on the matter. This is not a new package OpenAI is rolling out for all enterprises; the official public pricing for its Enterprise plan remains primarily based on usage quotas and tokens, so this "pay-per-result" model appears to be custom contracts negotiated exclusively with select large clients. OpenAI has long signaled this direction: in January this year, CFO Sarah Friar stated that AI business models would shift toward pay-per-result in the future, and in July, OpenAI further noted that rather than focusing on token unit prices, the industry should prioritize the total cost for AI to complete a task. This approach has now been incorporated into actual contracts.

CXMT is 3 days away from its IPO, as newly opened whale positions partially cut their CXMT long positions.

According to Hyperinsight monitoring, CXMT on Hyperliquid is currently trading at $6.4658, down roughly 0.8% over 24 hours, equivalent to ~￥43.93. This is 5.07 times the ￥8.66 IPO price of Changxin Technology, representing a ~407% premium. Changxin Technology is set to list on the STAR Market on July 27 (next Monday), with stock code 688825. Its total post-IPO share count is ~668.81 billion, of which ~45.03 billion shares will be tradable from the first day of listing. Calculated at CXMT’s current price, its implied market cap is ~￥2.94 trillion, ~￥2.36 trillion higher than the IPO valuation of ￥579.188 billion. CXMT futures launched on July 15, hitting a high of $8.64 (~￥58.70) from $6 on its first day, at one point trading at a 577.8% premium to the IPO price, with its implied market cap once approaching ￥3.93 trillion. The current price has fallen 25.2% from that peak, but remains 7.8% higher than its launch price. Open interest for CXMT on the platform stands at ~$50.1 million, with 24-hour trading volume of ~$11.566 million. On the address front, the largest existing position is held by address 0xf29, which is short $8.53 million worth of CXMT at 1x leverage, with an average entry price of $6.6, unrealized profit of $170,000, and liquidation price of $15. Meanwhile, the largest recent million-dollar position (a whale address starting with 0x8e09) has started reducing its long positions; after 13:00 today, it sold a small portion of 30,000 units. As of press time, this address still holds 204,100 CXMT long positions in isolated mode at 5x leverage, with a position value of ~$1.19 million, average entry price of $6.57, unrealized loss of ~$17,000, and a return of ~-7.9%. Although this position is marked as 5x leverage, it has posted ~$1.196 million in isolated margin, resulting in an effective leverage of only ~1.1x; it is currently labeled "Hanba Xiaolong" on Hyperliquid.

Roundup of Stablecoin Demand Deposit Yields on Major CEXs: USDT Offers Up to 10% for Small-Tier Deposits, USDC Up to 8%

According to the latest compiled data on flexible savings and earn products of major centralized crypto exchanges (CEXs), platforms including HTX, Binance, OKX, and Bitget continue to offer stablecoin current yields structured as "high returns for small amounts, tiered reduction for excess amounts". For USDT: HTX’s 0-200 USDT tier has an annualized yield of 10%, dropping to 1.95% for amounts over 200 USDT; Bitget’s 0-300 USDT tier yields 6.25%, with excess amounts at 1.59%; Binance’s 0-200 USDT tier is 4.54%, excess at 1.54%; OKX’s is 1.63%. For USDC: HTX’s 0-200 USDC tier offers an annualized yield of 8%, falling to 2.75% above 200 USDC; Bitget’s 0-300 USDC tier is 6.66%, excess at 1.73%; Binance’s 0-200 USDC tier is 6.51%, excess at 1.51%; OKX’s is 1.68%. For other stablecoins: HTX’s USDT VIP tier has an annualized yield of 6%-9%, while Bitget’s USDT VIP 0-300,000 tier is 1.88%; USDE’s annualized yields on HTX, Binance, and Bitget are tiered at 5%/3%, 4.00%, and 1.81% respectively; HTX’s USDD is 4.00%; Binance’s U product has an annualized yield of 8.53% for the 0-10,000 tier, dropping to 0.53% for excess amounts. Overall, current high yields on stablecoin flexible savings products of major CEXs remain concentrated in small amounts, with yields generally lower for large sums. When comparing related products, users should not only consider the nominal annualized yield, but also note tier limits, interest calculation rules, supported currencies, and real-time product availability. The above data is displayed yield rates and does not constitute investment advice.

South Korea’s Mirae Asset Group has acquired a 97.15% stake in Korbit, and plans to develop it into a smart investment platform.

South Korea’s Mirae Asset Group has completed the acquisition of a 97.15% stake in Korbit, a veteran South Korean cryptocurrency exchange, and plans to rebrand the platform as Digital X. The deal was finalized after securing approval from South Korea’s Fair Trade Commission, and the group currently has no plans to acquire the remaining shares. Mirae Asset stated that Digital X will be positioned as a "smart investment platform" that integrates real-world assets (RWA), security token offerings (STOs), stablecoins, traditional assets, and digital assets into a unified investment ecosystem, while connecting knowledge, information, and in-depth investment research. The "X" in the name represents the unknown future and infinite possibilities arising from the convergence of different value forms. Korbit currently holds less than 1% of South Korea’s domestic crypto market share, far trailing Upbit and Bithumb. Mirae Asset emphasized that its goal is not to outperform other exchanges, but to combine its global investment expertise with Korbit’s digital asset capabilities to drive the steady, sustainable development of the digital asset industry in South Korea and globally. The group also plans to strengthen investor education, research capabilities, and institutional-grade infrastructure, while strictly adhering to anti-money laundering (AML), know-your-customer (KYC), and fraud detection standards across all operations to serve both institutional clients and retail traders.

Circle and Nomura Plan to Launch Stablecoin Settlement Service in Japan, Earliest Launch as Early as 2027

China’s Center for Information Industry Developed Research Institute’s monthly crypto rankings have always been viewed as an oddity, given that the CCID is controlled by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology in a country notoriously scathing toward cryptocurrency.

But since President Xi Jinping’s recent address at the Politburo claiming that “We must take blockchain as an important breakthrough for independent innovation of core technologies. Clarify the main directions, increase investment, focus on a number of key technologies, and accelerate the development of blockchain and industrial innovation,” the rankings potentially warrant more respect. 

With the Chinese government announcing its intention to be at the epicenter of blockchain technology development, cryptocurrency markets went into overdrive, with Bitcoin seeing over 30 percent gains within ten hours.

Whether the Chinese government actually warms to the decentralized cryptocurrencies its citizens have long been enamored of remains to be seen. In the meantime, the news was widely viewed as a positive sign for the markets.

Are the CCID Research Institute Rankings Suddenly Relevant Again? The newfound enthusiasm for blockchain in the CCP, also indicated in recent news of a pending state-run digital currency, drags the CCID’s rankings back into view. Its latest edition has just been released.

Assessed in terms of technology, applicability (capability of being applied to solve problems), and creativity (how unique the blockchain is in its approach to solving problems), EOS has consistently ranked first since the organization began publishing its rankings in May of 2018.

The 14th index shows some notable movements since its last report. TRON overtook Ethereum in second place, though only by the skin of its teeth. Lisk is up seven places to seventh and Qtum surged ten places to eighth. 

Ontology is down seven places to fourteenth and Cosmos fell twelve places, from tenth to 22nd. GXChain fell precipitously, falling out of the top five in favor of BitShares. The top five now reads EOS, TRON, Ethereum, NULS, BitShares.

NANO on the Rise NANO enjoyed a rise from 22 to 13, finding a place back in the spotlight it lost during the early 2018 BitGrail debacle, from which it has since struggled to recover. As reported recently by Crypto Briefing, NANO is playing a substantial role in the ecosystem of Softbank-backed payments processor Wirex, an FCA-licensed company based in the U.K. 

At a recent NANO meetup in London, Wirex’s CEO Pavel Matveev said the company was keen to continue its relationship with the crypto formerly known as RaiBlocks. A Wirex blog post also spared no compliments in describing Nano, calling it “a next-generation cryptocurrency with great potential.”

With an opaque ranking system, the CCID results will likely remain a curiosity for some time. However, the CCP’s apparent newfound fondness for blockchain technology means it is warranted for the community to put blatant skepticism over their rankings on hold for at least an interim period.

Max Kordek: Lisk is a blockchain application platform with its own crypto asset, LSK. We aim to enable devs and entrepreneurs to create their own blockchain, which is fully independent and customizable to a large degree. The second step will be interoperability, so that these independent blockchains become sidechains, which then interact with the mainchain and each other, becoming an independent part of the bigger internal ecosystem of Lisk. Our tools are based on JavaScript which taps into a fast evolving programming language, rich developer base, and open source culture. We’ve also recently diversified a section of our code to TypeScript, which will support larger application building.

NewsBTC: Cool. So why did Lisk decide to go with DPoS instead of PoW? Were there centralization risks?

Max: My journey in blockchain first began with the purchase of a Litecoin miner in 2012. Back then, I was living in this very small student apartment in Germany, which was only about 20 square meters. The small space made the miner run super hot, and after two months I had enough. Through this experience, I’ve started to develop a dislike against the kind of inefficiency and this waste of electricity that Proof of Work systems create. I then began to look into alternatives to mining. I stumbled across NXT, then Peercoin, the first viable Proof of Stake coin in existence, which I fell in love with. It was amazing to have a server, which cost $10 to $20 a month to maintain and run the network from. I got really active in that community. Eventually, Peercoin fell apart, mainly because they failed to establish an organization to actually push the technology forward.

After Peercoin, I found Crypti, which provided that central business pushing the protocol forward. It was also the first organization where I discovered the Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS). However, Crypti also had its own issues with a very small team and even lower levels of funding. I decided to create something new with my partner Oliver Beddows. From the get-go, we knew it shouldn’t have anything to do with PoW. That’s how Lisk and Lightcurve came about. There are many benefits of our form of DPoS, but one of the main ones is that it is beneficial to what we specifically are building. If you want to create a blockchain platform where people can just spin up their own chains, DPoS is much easier to kickstart and safer to maintain than normal PoS. If you rely only on pure PoS, it may not be very secure, so it’s better to have delegates you can trust.

Max Kordek Delegates on the Lisk network know the codebase and the network through and through. Many of them build open source solutions and products, spot bugs on our Testnet, or migrate to critical releases in an extremely timely manner! It depends on what use case you want to implement, but having a secure network is what most of our stakeholders can agree on. As to centralization risks, there is a degree of fluidity to our network with some individuals entering and falling out of the delegated 101. We’ve also recently opened up the Lisk Improvement Proposals where both Lightcurve and community authors can submit their own proposals for how to make our consensus algorithm even better.

NewsBTC: With DPoS, EOS enlists 21 delegates and Ark, 51 delegates. So how did you come with the 101 delegate number?

Max: Dan Larimer runs EOS. Before EOS he ran Steemit and Bitshares, which utilized 101 delegates. We took the same number, which both he and Charles Hoskinson used back in the day, because it is a good balance between centralization and decentralization. 21 delegates are too few. Sure, the network is high-performance, but 21 entities controlling the network could be dangerous. 500 or 1,000, on the other hand, is too much, as such a number of delegates would cause too many inefficiencies in the network. So to put it simply, for us 101 delegates sits right in the sweet spot of the number of nodes necessary to move our blockchain forward, while the odd number gets rid of the ties by ensuring there’s always a majority on the network.

NewsBTC: What’s your vision for Lisk Academy? Do you guys want to spark adoption through education?

Max: Even after the bull market of 2017, only a few people on the street know what Bitcoin is, let alone the underlying technology of blockchain. We need to educate those who have the power to interact with blockchain, whether its building or investing. Right now, it’s not even about Lisk, but just blockchain as a technology. The next step is accessibility, meaning that we should ramp down the complexity of the blockchain ecosystem to aid the user experience. Once you educate people and they have access to the ecosystem, then you onboard them onto projects like Lisk and our SDK.

This is why we don’t attend as many conferences as Token2049 anymore. It sounds a bit bad, but we don’t want to constantly be in this kind of a crypto bubble. We need people from outside of the industry to enter. But they won’t enter without education. We just need to have a go-to place for people to learn about blockchain and Lisk. We also provide educational marketing content and documentation for developers wanting to take the next step and experiment with our technology.

Kordek’s Thoughts On The Crypto Industry NewsBTC: So do you think that education is the one thing holding back crypto adoption right now?

Max: I think many things are holding it back currently. One is definitely education. If we just don’t know or understand what it is, we won’t adopt it. Right now we need builders, who harness this technology to come up with viable use cases. And they, of course, need to know how this technology works. My mother doesn’t need to know about blockchain. But my developer colleagues who actually have the power to build need to know the ins and outs of not only blockchain technology, but also blockchain building and everything else needed to get them coding.  Another problem is use cases. People still ask, ‘what can we really achieve with this technology?’ People have no clue yet. Building on Ethereum is tough right now, but it’s the best experience in the industry by far. It isn’t optimal, so we need much better tooling and use case inspiration for developers. That, in my opinion, is why adoption has been pretty much slow.

NewsBTC: What is your end vision for this ecosystem? Do you see a world where everything is based on these technologies?

Max: I don’t think that everything will be based on blockchain. Yesterday I was on a panel discussion covering a very interesting topic — Web 3.0. It was said that blockchain is one technological level above texting (Web 3.0 v.s. 2.0). The Internet as a whole still has Web 1.0 applications, including simple internet pages and so on. Those don’t go away. And why should they? We have Web 2.0 pages, like Facebook, Twitter, etc. They will not disappear because of blockchain. So not everything will be run on blockchain, but there are quite a few processes that can be optimized with this technology. I’m a strong advocate for sure, but I just don’t see it as the golden technology that will disrupt absolutely everything. Right now, we don’t even have one use case that has reached 100,000 daily active users. Facebook, on the other hand, has one billion active users. So in the end, I see a world where blockchain really helps people in very specific industries and solutions.

NewsBTC: So you’re saying that I guess there have been there’s been very little adoption right now, but what’s one application for one use case that you think has a lot of potential?

Max: Right now, we’re still heavy in the R&D regarding which use case will be most suitable for our technology. One industry we want to start off with is definitely gaming. That’s an obvious use case right there, given opportunities for tokenization and so forth. Governmental work like notarization or traveling documentation is a pain right now that could easily be improved by blockchain. These processes can be optimized with a digital identity system that automatically checks you and is stored on the blockchain for secure and cross-border access. There are many use cases out there. In the end, we are creating technology that is customizable and scalable enough to allow many of these to be explored.

NewsBTC: How has this bear market been compared to ones seen previously?

Max: The previous ones were much worse. Bitcoin went from like $1,000 to $150, and people were saying that you should pack your bags and say your goodbyes. At that time, there was no development happening. There weren’t these global conference chains with thousands of attendees. It was really dark on Reddit. And now, we’re potentially just coming out of another crypto winter, but there are 20 to 30 meetups happening in Hong Kong this week, even more across the world. If you go on our GitHub, subscribe to Crypto Twitter, or check out big crypto publications, you can see there’s a wide range of activity going on amongst the projects that survived this crash.

There’s so much that is happening. There’s seriously much more development than any other point in blockchain’s history. So for me, the ones before were much worse economics-wise, activity-wise, and sentiment-wise. The thing is, we are patient because we see a big future ahead of this technology. This is just part of normal market cycles. The companies are getting more serious, and the first iterations of products are beginning to pop up. For example, we’re about to release our Alpha SDK, the first version of our blockchain-building toolkit that will allow developers to create proof-of-concept applications aligned with our codebase.

NewsBTC: Do you think that the crypto market is oversaturated at the moment?

Max: Well, I made my own altcoin, so it’s very hard to comment on that one. What I think is that the market overall regulates itself, especially when it feels oversaturated. You see crypto assets that are dropping lower and lower on CMC, as they have no activity, no trading volume, and that’s totally fine by me. That’s a sign that it’s oversaturated. And I assume that is why projects are dying as the market stabilizes and matures. There’s still potential for thousands and thousands more crypto assets and projects around them. I just want to see projects with an actual use case and a true focus on development. In our case, Lisk will be used for registering a sidechain. In Ethereum’s case, it can be used for smart contract execution. But why do all these other apps need a token? Status, for example, a messenger project, doesn’t really need a token. I have not looked into it in-depth, but that raises a question mark. So yeah, I think it’s saturated, but it’s regulating itself in time and legitimate technology with a good business backing stays afloat.

NewsBTC: How has the Lisk team been doing in this market cycle?

Max: Lisk is always progressing at a sustainable pace. The technology is going forward as I mentioned before with the upcoming release of our Alpha SDK. Things on the business side are playing support to the constant development – we were lucky enough to have a professionalized financial team to help us diversify our holdings. This gave us a healthy balance of fiat and crypto, which resulted in extra stability throughout this bear market. We’re also continuing to grow our business and fostering a global developer community. Our community members actually started physical developer spaces across the globe, including the Netherlands, Japan, and China. There’s a lot of activity happening on GitHub and real life!

The Future Of Bitcoin  NewsBTC: How do you expect for the crypto market to play out over 2019?

Max: I really have no idea. It could go up or down. But right now, it seems to be stabilizing very slowly. Eventually, though, there could be another, let’s call it, wick lower. I assume personally that it will continue to go up towards the end of next year. In 1.5 years is the Bitcoin halving, so the market could go up because of that. But I don’t care really. It’s not only about the money.

NewsBTC: What do you see Bitcoin as? Is it an SoV, MoE, or anything else?

Max: I think of it mainly as a store of value with complete independence of any other market. That means you can just fill up your portfolio with 1% to 2% with it, and it can act as a secure investment next to gold. I also tend to see it as a means of exchange, I bought some stuff online with BTC recently. Yesterday, I went to the Lotus Bar in Hong Kong, which accepts Bitcoin. It’s a nice thing, but I’m not going to go there every time just to use BTC. So in end, it’s more of a store of value. It’s important to add that I also see it as a stepping stone for blockchain technology overall. It may not be the most scalable, but it’s inspiring. It may not be a world currency, but it should become a means of exchange in one way or another.

NewsBTC: What do you think of the whole JP Morgan Coin or FBCoin? Do you like what they bring to the table?

Max: I know many many people who hate Mark Zuckerberg in the industry, but it’s important to remember Facebook is a tech company at the end of the day. When your company grows as large as Facebook did, it’s hard to stay true to your original ethos. Many things can go wrong. And maybe Facebook had many things go wrong this year, but it isn’t the fault of Mark Zuckerberg alone. I still think Zuckerberg has the best things in mind. I see FBCoin as an interesting concept. I’m not too sure how scalable it will be, as WhatsApp or Facebook itself has billions of users. But why not? I think it will be pretty cool, no matter if it’s decentralized, centralized, etc. As long as it uses blockchain technology, that is exactly what we want and need. JP Morgan Coin, on the other hand, is something I hate. First, they say Bitcoin is a scam, then they were revealed to have participated in the Bitcoin market, and then they suddenly come up with their own coin. At the end of the day, JP Morgan isn’t a technology company, so they shouldn’t do that. This project is just for their monetary gain. They should stick with the old economy and do their crap there. They don’t really belong here.

NewsBTC: It’s my final question. Can crypto succeed without institutional involvement, like investments from those on Wall Street?

Max: Yeah definitely. I think people are more powerful than institutions. With blockchain and Bitcoin, we’re going towards true peer-to-peer transactions and exchanges. On a global scale, this will be much more powerful than any institution in the world. Still, financial institutions are great leverage, as they can give people the power to make this whole movement. We can utilize those institutions, but we don’t need them in the end.

Most of the top 50 altcoins recorded incredible recoveries over the past 2-3 days. While this did not hold good for all coins, as most of them were still suffering from the losses incurred last month, a few coins like Nano and HedgeTrade were actually on a bullish run. A few other alts like Stellar, Lisk and Ontology, on the other hand, were recording a short-term bearish run.

Stellar

Stellar has been doing fine in terms of price. Since the 55% drop on 12 March, the coin has been on an upward run, maintaining constant support at $0.036. However, the attached chart indicated the formation of a symmetrical triangle, one highlighting a 40% chance for a downward breakout

The CMF indicator lay at -0.04, hinting at a downward price outbreak. However, there were 60% chances of an upward breakout; if in this case it turns out to be true, the price might rise to reach the resistance at $0.04.

In other news, the Stellar Development Foundation (SDF) is contributing to fight COVID-19 by launching a charity fund;  XLM tokens are being accepted as donations by several charitable organizations, including UNICEF and The Tor Project.

Resistance: $0.046, $0.054, $0,061
Support: $0.036, $0.033, $0.031

Press time price: $0.04
Market Cap: $859,059,328
24-hour Trading Volume: $434,312,699

Nano

Like Stellar, Nano, after the 57% drop on 12 March, maintained a stable price level for over a week. At the time of writing, the price was maintained its support at $0.42.  The chart for Nano highlighted the formation of an ascending triangle, indicating an upward breakout in the market. The Awesome oscillator indicator also confirmed the upward breakout as it lay above the zero line, at press time.

Two Popular Altcoins Still Recording Over 140% Gains in 2020 So Far

Poloniex plans to shift the majority of its crypto trading operations offshore, according to parent company Circle. The move comes amidst regulatory uncertainty and pressure in the US, which lacks a clear legal framework or guidance for cryptocurrency-related businesses or crypto investors.

Circle CEO Jeremy Allaire says that 70% of Poloniex users are not based in the US, prompting the move to another jurisdiction. Allaire says Poloniex has already secured its Digital Assets Business Act license to operate in Bermuda, reports Coindesk.

Says Allaire,

“The lack of regulatory frameworks significantly limits what can be offered to individuals and businesses in the US.”

In May, the Delaware-based exchange stopped offering nine coins for its customers in the US due to regulatory uncertainty: Ardor (ARDR), Bytecoin (BCN), Decred (DCR), GameCredits (GAME), Gas (GAS), Lisk (LSK), Nxt (NXT), Omni Layer (OMNI) and Augur (REP).

The CEO also confirmed that the company’s recent downsizing, eliminating roughly 30 employees, was partly due to the lack of clarity from US lawmakers. The company’s current focus is global and getting beyond the US bottleneck.

“It took a long time working with the Bermuda government and the Bermuda Monetary Authority.”

“The project to establish a new international operations hub for our market, exchange and wallet services, was a major project.”

The move will also allow Poloniex to explore being able to offer financial services, adding that users could expect to see more “yield-generating crypto accounts.”

Poloniex ranks in the top 100 crypto exchanges in the world with a 24-hour trading volume of roughly $16 million, according to data compiled by CoinMarketCap. It is also listed among Messari’s Real 10 Volume index reflecting legitimate trading volumes from leading industry players.

In the wake of last week’s two congressional hearings on Facebook’s upcoming digital asset Libra, crypto insiders are assessing the highly critical response from US lawmakers who are determined to halt the project in its tracks. The hearings sparked an intense debate about Bitcoin, cryptocurrencies and new corporate digital assets that are all vying for a place in the digital economy.

Politicians have not yet figured out a way to deal with emerging blockchain technology and the many products and services currently in development to bring more financial inclusion for people all around the world. The threat of digital assets lowering costs, rivaling existing infrastructure and challenging the traditional banking and monetary systems has prompted many prominent politicians, including Maxine Waters and Brad Sherman, to demand a moratorium on Libra.

As for Bitcoin, the decentralized system cannot be halted or stopped by any central authority or government.

Gelato Network, renowned for its roll-up as a service platform within the Web3 space, has announced a significant milestone with the launch of the Lisk L2 Developer Mainnet. This development marks a pivotal moment for Gelato, as it continues to broaden its scope and enhance its offerings in the decentralized ecosystem. 

The Lisk L2 Developer Mainnet is not just another layer; it’s part of Gelato’s strategic initiative to integrate more deeply with the Optimism network, heralding a new era of interoperability and efficiency in blockchain technology.

Driving Innovation and Interoperability in Web3 During the initial Devnet phase, Gelato facilitated the deployment of essential infrastructure components such as bridges, decentralized exchanges (DEXs), and applications in preparation for the public mainnet launch. This phase was critical in ensuring that Lisk L2 could seamlessly integrate into the Optimism collective known as the Superchain. 

This integration is aimed at enhancing sequencer revenue and contributing to a unified network of rollups that promise to revolutionize the way developers and applications interact across the blockchain.

The transition of Lisk Devnet to become the first Layer 1 blockchain migrating to Optimism’s network underscores a significant advancement in the blockchain domain. This move leverages Optimism’s OP Stack, which is designed to foster a unifying framework for rollups, enhancing communication, security, and governance across the network. 

The Superchain, which now includes Lisk among its 13+ chain integrations, supports asset bridging without fragmentation, shared governance under the OP Collective, and a robust security model that benefits all participating chains.

Moreover, the Gelato network has expanded its ecosystem to include over 17 infrastructure providers, enriching the chain’s environment with diverse services. These providers range from Web3 functionalities like Across Fi for bridging, RedStone oracles for reliable data feeds, to user interface solutions such as Protofire Safe UI and comprehensive analytics from Goldskyio indexers.
