In his latest essay titled “Zero Knowledge Proof,” former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes explores the potential of PolitiFi tokens. He argues that these tokens have the potential to reshape political fundraising, revolutionize campaigns, circumvent censorship, and sway election outcomes. Public Sentiment According to the blog post, PolitiFi tokens function as real-time sentiment indicators and decentralized prediction markets. He argues that traditional polling methods are inherently biased and suffer from information asymmetry because people may not always disclose their true political beliefs publicly. On the other hand, meme coins offer an alternative way to measure popularity, enabling individuals to show support for a politician without fear of social repercussions. An example Hayes discusses is the rise of coins like TRUMP, which gained popularity among supporters of U.S. President Donald Trump. He explained that the market value of these assets often fluctuates based on a candidate’s perceived chances of winning, showing the connection between financial speculation and political sentiment. He points to blockchain-based platforms like Polymarket, where users can bet on election outcomes. By offering real-time wagers on election results, these platforms have sometimes outperformed traditional polling methods in predicting outcomes. Governments have moved to restrict such platforms. For instance, France banned Polymarket despite not being in an election year, which Hayes attributes to fears of exposing unpopular political realities. On the other hand, political tokens are more difficult to regulate. Hosted on decentralized exchanges, they remain accessible to anyone with an internet connection. The former executive argues that this makes them an ideal tool for measuring political momentum in real-time without government interference. Campaign Financing and Political Engagement Hayes also suggests that these assets could transform political campaign funding. Traditional financing often relies on large donors and corporate backing. Political meme coins, however, enable grassroots financial support through token purchases. If a candidate endorses a token, holders have an interest in their success, creating a financial incentive to support and promote their campaign. Hayes envisions a future where political campaigns use them to mobilize supporters more effectively than traditional advertisements. He points to Trump’s embrace of alternative media, like podcast appearances, as an indicator of how digital engagement is reshaping political outreach. In the next election cycles, he predicts that platforms like X-Spaces and Discord will play a crucial role in political discourse, with meme coins acting as a digital expression of voter alignment. While critics argue that the asset class could lead to market manipulation and financial risks for retail investors, He counters that their transparency makes them preferable to traditional political funding mechanisms. Unlike ordinary campaign donations, meme coin trading allows for an open and verifiable record of political support.

The post Abu Dhabi Reveals $436.9 Million Investment in BlackRock’s Bitcoin ETF appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News In a recent update, Abu Dhabi on Friday, revealed a massive $436.9 million stake in BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin ETF (IBIT) as of December 31, 2024. The investment was made through Mubadala Investments, one of the country’s sovereign wealth funds, according to a 13F filing with the SEC. The company makes investments on behalf of Abu Dhabi’s government, which serves as capital city of the United Arab Emirates. In reaction, Bitcoin’s price jumped about 0.5%, reaching $97,400, following the news. Notably, the purchase follows BlackRock securing a commercial license to operate in Abu Dhabi last November. BlackRock manages the largest spot bitcoin ETF, with nearly $56 billion in assets. While this may be one of Abu Dhabi’s biggest crypto investments, but it’s not the city’s first move into digital assets. In 2023, Abu Dhabi also invested in bitcoin mining, with Marathon Digital and Zero Two announcing plans for a major mining complex in the city. Mubadala’s investment in Bitcoin ETFs reflects the growing interest of institutional investors in digital assets within traditional finance markets. This move aligns with the wider trend of increased crypto adoption in the Middle East, where governments and financial institutions are showing greater interest in blockchain and digital assets.

Apex Legends recently launched Season 24, introducing a host of new content, such as the Arsenal feature. The new updates included buffs and specific enhancements for Assualt Legends, as well as new weapon skins. The launch was followed up by an update that fixed the shooter game’s major bugs. Apex Legends has remained an industry leader in battle royale shooter games since its launch in 2019. With the game dipping in players, Respawn Entertainment, its developer, has released new content to help keep gamers engaged. Respawn Entertainment rolls out Apex Legends Season 24 We got to playtest Apex Legends Season 24. There are some HUGE changes!!! Gun Arsenals – Added to Every POI– You can pull guns and ammo out of arsenals to quickly get looted up (they will randomly be one ammo type). You can also get 1 gun buff at the arsenals. Combat… pic.twitter.com/nCeIUwAOUu — HisandHersLive (@HisandHersLive) February 5, 2025 Respawn Entertainment launched Apex Legends Season 24 on February 11th, 2025. The new season came with major changes in balancing and the game’s class-specific upgrades. The new season introduces Arsenals to the game. The Arsenals are located at every POI, and the ammo type contained is randomized for each match. Each arsenal will have a white or blue upgrade of attachments. Gamers will be able to see the name of the POI in the sky with the names of the ammo type of the Arsenal in that POI. Matchmaking will also be improved using skill balancing to place gamers of similar levels against each other. Season 24 also changes how combat and gear, such as armor and helmets, work. The new season will have armor being capped to purple (Level 3). However, gamers can access red(level four) shields with the new mythic red helmet from mythic bins and late-game care packages. The game also introduced damage buffs to all guns. Additionally, Assualt Legends also get buffs that include “Auto Reload” of weapons stowed for over 2 seconds, 2 extra grenade slots, and 3-second movement buffs after cracking a shield. The game also introduced new skins for mythic weapons, such as the Mythic Wraith 301. Season 24 also features other major buffs for individual Apex Legends, especially Ash and Ballistic. Ash now has the Predator’s Pursuit passive, which grants her an omnidirectional short-range dash and boosts her mobility. Ash also has an extended Ultimate Portal distance and the ability to store two ultimate charges at blue armor. On the other hand, Ballistic can now use up to four Whistlers. Ballistic can also sling holster crate weapons that gain infinite ammo when his ultimate is active, maximizing his improved ultimate mechanics. Respawn launches follow-up update as gamers lodge more complaints Following the launch of Season 24, gamers online voiced their complaints over several bugs and issues affecting the gamer’s ability to play the game. Respawn quickly responded to the complaints while also providing a workaround fix to the EA crash issue. They announced that the EA App crash issue had been fixed a few hours after the studio had acknowledged the issue. The company also clarified that badges were earnable in the Mythic Mayhem Royale mode and that Redemption Trios & Duos had been removed from takeover and were to be added as an LTM later in the season. Respawn announced that it had fixed most of the major bugs pointed out by gamers after season 24 launched. The new update contained fixes for tracking the Bangalore Smoke Launcher Challenge. The challenge required players to hit five enemies with the tactical ability and had been logged as incomplete for some players who had completed the challenge. Additionally, a bug affecting the R-301 event badge was resolved. The R-301 bug had been failing to track damage dealt with the weapon, leaving many players stuck at zero progress regardless of their in-game performance. The final patch also included fixes related to the Fast Charge Gold Helmet. The Helmet had mistakenly appeared in the game’s Battle Royale mode instead of its intended game mode. As a result, the item’s appearance disrupted the game’s balance in battle royales, an aspect that many gamers complained about. The fix returned the helmet to its rightful mode and restored competitive integrity in Battle Royale mode. Cryptopolitan Academy: Are You Making These Web3 Resume Mistakes? - Find Out Here

Author: flowie, ChainCatcher As the crypto community wails, many "legacy" projects born in the last two cycles are announcing their token launches one after another. Last night, OpenSea announced the launch of the $SEA token, followed by Doodles, which also announced the launch of the $DOOD token on Solana. This comes after the likes of Pudgy Penguins and Azuki, as two more NFT leaders join the token issuance frenzy. Not only in the NFT space, but also in the privacy projects that were popular in the last cycle but have almost disappeared in 2024, it seems that they are also trying to extend their lives through token issuance. Last night, Aztec Network, an Ethereum privacy layer backed by investment giants like a16z and Paradigm, established a foundation, possibly in preparation for an upcoming TGE. Pudgy Penguins, which issued tokens when they were ignored, saw their NFT floor price soar from 11 ETH to 35 ETH due to extremely high yield expectations from community players, with the opening FDV of their token PENGU exceeding $6 billion at its peak. Following the demonstration effect of Pudgy Penguins' token issuance, many blue-chip NFTs have collectively announced their token launches. However, compared to Pudgy Penguins, other NFTs that followed suit seem to have not garnered as much attention, and their NFT and token popularity is far below that of Pudgy Penguins. In mid-January, another blue-chip NFT, Azuki, announced the launch of the ANIME token. While the NFTs within the Azuki ecosystem saw some recovery, the price increases were generally modest, far from the gains of Pudgy Penguins. The Azuki series NFTs saw a daily increase of 17.42%, while other related series NFTs did not show significant rises. In December last year, after Doodles NFT founder Burnt Toast hinted at a token issuance in a tweet, the floor price of Doodles surged in a short time, breaking above 8 ETH before falling back to 6.7 ETH, marking a nearly 60% increase within 24 hours. After the official token announcement this morning, as of the time of writing, the Doodles NFT floor price remains at 4.449 ETH. Once the leading NFT platform, OpenSea, received mixed reactions from the community after revealing its token issuance news. During the NFT boom in 2021, OpenSea raised funds aggressively, with its valuation soaring to $13 billion. While the community actively traded in anticipation of airdrops, OpenSea insisted on pursuing an IPO route, facing backlash from the community. Now that the NFT market has cooled down, OpenSea is following Pudgy Penguins in issuing tokens without having achieved an IPO. In response, crypto KOL @BroLenoAus criticized, "This is OpenSea's last harvest before it turns into a zombie, essentially a death struggle," stating that after receiving the OpenSea airdrop, he would firmly choose to short it. Additionally, the newly launched platform OpenSea 2.0 (OS2), which was prepared for the TGE, has limited free access during the private testing phase to only Gemesis NFT holders, while other users must join a waiting list, causing dissatisfaction among community members who feel it favors early users and neglects the existing user base. However, @ElvisPoldark believes there is a positive side, suggesting that the new features of OpenSea 2.0, leveraged by the token issuance, may provide a new experience and compete with rivals like Blur. For instance, OpenSea 2.0 offers a one-stop service for NFTs and tokens, allowing users to purchase NFTs and tokens across multiple blockchains without manual bridging. Currently, more details about the airdrops and TGE for Doodles and OpenSea have yet to be finalized, and whether they can gain user support remains uncertain. Learning from the experiences of Pudgy Penguins and Trump tokens, "token issuance" may become a lifeline for old projects rather than reinventing the narrative. However, these former leaders backed by VC giants are facing significant bottlenecks and trust crises in their own businesses. OpenSea, once the largest NFT trading platform, peaked at a monthly trading volume of $5 billion in early 2021. However, according to Dune Analytics, its NFT trading volume last month was approximately $190 million, less than 4% of its peak. Faced with challenges from competitors like Blur and Magic Eden, OpenSea's market share has dropped from 90% in 2022 to around 30%. OpenSea is also facing regulatory compliance challenges. Meanwhile, the floor price of Doodles has fallen from a high of 25 ETH to 4.449 ETH. During the previous bear market, Doodles attempted to save itself by selling IP and related products, but the results have been minimal. As a star project in Ethereum privacy, Aztec Network raised over $100 million in four rounds of financing, with top investment teams like a16z, Paradigm, Coinbase Ventures, and HashKey Capital participating. However, after raising $100 million, Aztec Network suddenly announced a business transformation in March 2023, shutting down its DeFi privacy bridge project Aztec Connect and focusing on two new main products: a general-purpose development language Noir that supports zero-knowledge proofs and a new privacy blockchain. Facing the transformation and the delayed airdrop, community users have expressed disappointment towards Aztec, and since then, the project has not made significant progress or impact. Currently, in a market lacking liquidity and innovative models, where market attention is no longer easily captured by old narratives and VC tokens, it is a significant challenge for old narratives and projects that have lost some trust to attempt to reverse their fortunes through token issuance.
