A Complete Guide to ICP Token from Dfinity

https://www.publish0x.com/deepresearch/a-complete-guide-to-icp-token-from-dfinity-xjmzlyr

Dfinity hopes that popular apps like Facebook and TikTok will be recreated on a decentralized network and the Internet Computer is ready to handle any load. It is far easier for developers to manage since compute and storage are managed in a single place and scaled by the Internet Computer, which means the developers don’t need to manage things like databases, firewalls, load balancers, etc.

In addition to the crowdsale, Dfinity has raised several billion dollars from some of the most prominent venture capitalists in Silicon Valley, most notably A16Z. A16Z has led multiple successive rounds for Dfinity over the years, which proves their deep conviction in the project (in addition to providing a way to deploy their hundreds of millions of dollars in a single shot).

Binance Suspends, Resumes Client Withdraws as Crypto Markets Soar

https://www.thestreet.com/investing/binance-suspends-resumes-withdraws-as-cryptocurrency-markets-soar

Binance, the world's largest cryptocurrency exchange by volume, temporarily suspended withdraws from its platform Monday amid what it called "large volume increases" for Ethereum and other digital tokens.

The suspension was lifted shortly after the 7:13 am Eastern time suspension, but nonetheless underscore some of the risks inherent from the surge in interest for cryptocurrencies that remain largely unregulated.

Last week Gary Gensler, the newly-appointed Chairman of the Securities and Exchange Commission, told CNBC that crypto tokens were "indeed securities" and as such would likely fall under the regulator's broader authority.

"I think that we need greater investor protection there and we don’t have a federal regime overseeing the crypto exchanges, so if an investor wants to trade on that Bitcoin, understanding it’s highly volatile, highly speculative, but if they want to trade on that, that we have in place some investor protection and that’s what I was saying I think is a gap in our system right now," he said.


Ether, the digital token used for transactions on the Ethereum blockchain, passed the $4,000 price mark Monday, notching its third consecutive daily all-time high amid a surge in cryptocurrency trading that has tested platforms and networks in markets around the world.

Dogecoin, meanwhile, lost more than a third of its value over the weekend following comments from Elon Musk, who called the digital token a 'hustle' during his much-anticipated appearance on Saturday Night Live.

The Tesla (TSLA) - Get Report founder and CEO later Tweeted that his commercial rocket company, SpaceX, would accept Dogecoins for payment in future, giving the controversial crypto a lift in early Monday trading.

Ether token prices were marked 2.5% higher on the CoinDesk exchange Monday and changing hands at $4,028.76 each, an all-time high that puts the cryptocurrency's year-to-date gain at around 750%. Bitcoin prices, meanwhile, were marked 1% higher at $57,860.00 each while Dogecoin was down 13.5% at around 51 cents.

Overnight, Binance Liquidated Doge. NB, Binancecoin (BNB), pre SNL was a mere $5B delta. And Dogecoin was furiously approaching the market cap of Binancecoin.

Sun, May 9, 2021, 8:38 AM·2 min read

Dogecoin (DOGE) is at the top of the Bybt.com liquidations list from the last 12 hours, with over $280 million liquidated across exchanges.

In a rare turn of events, DOGE was the subject of, at time of reporting, $282 million worth of liquidations. More than Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH) or Ripple (XRP). According to data, that includes the largest single liquidation order, which occurred on Binance. The DOGE involved in this order was valued at $12.07 million.

This amount accounts for nearly 40% of the $707 million cryptocurrencies liquidated in the same 12-hour period. BTC followed DOGE with just under $120 million liquidated. Then ETH was the subject of the third-most orders, amounting to another near $95 million worth.

According to data recorded on cryptocurrency futures trading and information platform Bybt.com, around 35% of these liquidations were made on the Huobi exchange. A further 20% were made on Bybit and another near 19% on Binance.
