Coinbase Se Asocia Con Optimism Para Construir Blockchain De Capa 2

Coinbase anunció recientemente que está construyendo su propio blockchain de capa 2 utilizando el OP Stack en colaboración con Optimism. Esto provocó un aumento del 6.5% en el precio del token optimism (OP) -el token nativo del protocolo Optimism- el jueves pasado.

Características De La Blockchain De Capa 2

La blockchain de capa 2 de Coinbase se llama Base y difiere significativamente de otras blockchains de capa 2 al no contar con un token nativo como Polygon (MATIC). Estos productos similares se esperan que tengan buen rendimiento en protocolos como Arbitrum, Polygon y Optimism una vez que la red principal esté activada.

Mercados Reaccionan Al Anuncio

Tras el anuncio por parte de Coinbase, el precio cotizaba a US$3,04 mientras que el precio del token MATIC no sufrió grandes cambios luego del anuncio. Además, Coinbase abrió hace algunos meses un marketplace para tokens no fungibles (NFT) pero los volúmenes siguen siendo bajos comparados con los competidores OpenSea y LooksRare según datos Dune Analytics.

• The TRU token of decentralized lending protocol TrueFi surged 220% on Thursday in an hour due to speculation over a Binance stablecoin transaction.
• The speculated connection between TUSD and TRU tokens is misplaced because the issuers of the two tokens have been separated since 2020.
• Binance Minted $50 million of TrueUSD (TUSD) stablecoin, potentially gaining a larger role in trading on Binance after the regulatory crackdown on the Paxos-issued Binusd (BUSD).

TRU Token Rallies Over 200% After Binance’s TUSD Mint Sparks Speculation

The rally appears to come from traders mistakenly connecting TRU with TUSD, a stablecoin that had been issued by TrueFi in the past but now no longer is.

Background Information

TrustToken sold TUSD in 2020 to a firm called Techteryx, according to an announcement by TrustToken Chief Executive Rafael Cosman at the time. The post said Techteryx is an “Asia-based conglomerate with businesses … in the traditional real estate, entertainment, environmental and information technology industries.”TrustToken also separated from the TrueFi protocol and was renamed Archblock last year, as TrueFi embarked on a road to decentralize the platform.

Market Reactions

TRU surged as high as 14.6 cents from 4.4 cents on Binance before later paring some of the gains. The token was trading at around 11 cents at press time.Earlier this week, Paxos said it would halt minting BUSD on orders from New York regulators following its unauthorised listing earlier this month without prior approval.

Implications for Stablecoins Market

The event sparked speculation among crypto traders about TUSD potentially gaining a larger role in trading on Binance after the regulatory crackdown on the Paxos-issued Binance USD (BUSD).

Conclusion

The speculative flurry over a Binance stablecoin transaction has caused TRU token to surge by over 200%. Despite being mistakenly associated with each other, it appears that both coins have been separated since last year; thus reducing any potential implications for either coin’s market performance or stability going forward.

• Bittrex, a Seattle-based cryptocurrency exchange, is laying off more than 80 people due to the “new economic environment” of the market downturn.
• This follows other crypto exchanges that have recently announced layoffs due to sharp declines in cryptocurrency prices and the collapse of FTX exchange and other prominent crypto firms.

Bittrex Laying Off More Than 80 People

Cryptocurrency exchange Bittrex is reducing its staff by more than 80 people, citing market conditions. CEO Richie Lai told employees that they had been working to reduce expenses and increase efficiencies but were not successful due to the “new economic environment” of the market downturn. The reductions affected at least some employees in most departments across Bittrex.

The Market Downturn

The “market downturn” has resulted from multiple failures in the crypto ecosystem and has caused crypto companies to reset their strategy and balance investments with this new economic environment. This follows other crypto exchanges such as Gemini and Coinbase, who also announced layoffs due to sharp declines in cryptocurrency prices and the collapse of FTX exchange and other prominent crypto firms.

Impact on Crypto Industry

CoinDesk estimates that since April more than 29,000 jobs have been lost across the entire crypto industry based on media reports and press releases. These job losses are likely to continue as many companies adjust their strategies for operating within this new economic environment.

Richie Lai’s Letter To Employees

In a leaked email on Twitter, CEO Richie Lai told employees: “We’ve worked aggressively to reduce our expenses while increasing our efficiency over time — sadly these efforts weren’t enough given our current situation.” He went on to encourage all remaining employees to remain focused on their work despite this difficult news.

Conclusion

As cryptocurrencies continue facing challenging times, many exchanges are being forced into making tough decisions about how they operate within this new economic environment — which includes significant layoffs for many employees across the industry. Companies like Bittrex are doing their best to minimize disruption while still remaining competitive in a tumultuous market place.
