These Top NFT Crypto Projects Remain Under the Radar, According to Crypto Trader Tyler Swope

Crypto analyst Tyler Swope is bullish on a pair of under-the-radar non-fungible token (NFT) projects.

In a new video, Swope says he’s optimistic about the NFT trading protocol NFT20 (MUSE), noting that its 24-hour NTF trading volumes are rising.

The trader speculates that, based on the current NFT hype, the protocol could follow a similar trajectory to Uniswap, which now does around $1 billion in trading volume on most days.

Swope also points out new features that NFT20 has added.

“NFT20 just integrated the swapper, allowing people to go directly from ETH to NFTs in a Uniswap-like style interface.”

Much of the hype around NFTs comes from their versatility. They can represent a wide range of both digital and real-world assets, from virtual land in video games to artwork to event tickets, allowing a range of valuables to be tokenized.

The analyst also remains bullish on Non-Fungible Yearn (NFY), which is a new breed of crypto asset that leverages the hallmark features of NFTs and decentralized finance (DeFi).

The new project uses NFTs to represent the rights to a staked fund and the yields it generates.

Explains Swope,

“[NFY] created yield-bearing NFTs before anyone else. An NFT that has locked liquidity earning yield yet can be transferred from person to person.”

The also analyst speculates – based on certain social media posts – that NFY could soon be forming a partnership with Rarible (RARI), one of the leading NFT marketplaces.

New Zealand retirement fund reportedly allocates 5% to Bitcoin

BY

KiwiSaver Growth Strategy, a $350 million retirement plan operated by New Zealand Wealth Funds Management, has reportedly allocated 5% of its assets to Bitcoin (BTC), underscoring the steady stream of institutional investors entering the digital asset space.

Bitcoin’s striking similarities to gold were cited as one of the biggest reasons for entering the trade, according to James Grigor, the chief investment officer at New Zealand Funds Management.

“If you are happy to invest in gold, you can’t really discount bitcoin,” he told Stuff, a New Zealand news agency, adding that BTC will be featured in more KiwiSaver products over the next five years.

Grigor explained that his firm purchased Bitcoin for the first time in October when it was valued at $10,000. To execute the trade, New Zealand Fund Management had to change its offer documents to allow for cryptocurrency investments.

Bitcoin’s price peaked north of $61,000…

3 reasons why StormX (STMX) price has rallied 2,800% in 2021

BY

Cashback rewards for purchases have long been a popular tactic used by banks and credit card companies to entice consumers to use their services.

StormX (STMX) is a gamified marketplace that allows users to earn STMX as well as other cryptocurrencies for shopping at one of its online network partner stores or by completing micro-tasks through its app.

Crypto.com launches CRO token mainnet

BY

Cryptocurrency exchange Crypto.com has launched a fully decentralized open-source public blockchain, the Crypto.org Chain.

In an announcement today, the crypto exchange said it had launched its Crypto.org public blockchain after more than two years of research and development, two testnets, and a mainnet dry run with 275 million transactions reportedly processed within a month. The blockchain’s native token will be the Crypto.org Coin (CRO).

Last month, Crypto.org burned more than 70 billion CRO — roughly $10 billion at the time — in advance of the mainnet launch. The new chain has already processed more than 7,000 transactions at the time of publication, which Crypto.com said was aimed at “payments, DeFi and NFTs.”

“Decentralization matters,” said Crypto.com CEO Kris Marszalek. “Today, you are faced with bad options. You can use Blockchain A and pay high fees in a slow, congested,…

Cathie Wood: BTC investors shouldn’t transact until tax code changed

BY

Cathie Wood, the founder and CEO of Ark Invest, is cautioning investors not to sell or transact their Bitcoin (BTC) until the United States Internal Revenue Agency, or IRS, introduces more sensible tax policies on digital assets.

In a webcast hosted by Cboe, Wood said transacting with BTC could lead to massive tax liabilities.

“The IRS has something to say about this, so if you have huge gains in your Bitcoin, I don’t think I would bear much in the way of transactions until we get maybe some changes on the tax front,” Wood said, according to Markets Insider.

Using Bitcoin for transactions and selling it for profit have become attractive options for long-term holders. The flagship cryptocurrency recently spiked above $61,000 en route to new all-time highs. And while the BTC price has corrected sharply from its recent peak, it’s still up…

What the FUD? Fear drives Bitcoin price down, not Friday’s $6.1B expiry

BY

Earlier this week, Cointelegraph reported the importance of the upcoming $6.1 billion Bitcoin (BTC) options expiry on March 26. The article made clear that bulls were in control if one excluded the put (sell) options below $47,000, which is likely the case as BTC currently hovers above $50,000.

As the expiry date draws closer, it’s less likely that traders will be willing to pay for the right to sell BTC at $47,000. The same could be said for the ultra-bullish call (buy) options at $60,000 and above. Therefore, the $6.1 billion total open interest is heavily inflated by worthless options.

Could there be something hidden in BTC options that is causing current pressure on price pressure? To determine this, one needs to analyze how these calls and puts stack below $50,000.

The NFT of record: New York Times raises $500,000 for charity in NFT column sale

BY

“It’s worth a try,” wrote New York Times columnist Kevin Roose of his attempt to auction one of his articles as a non-fungible token (NFT). Just a day later, however, it appears to be worth much more than that.

After publishing a step-by-step NFT explainer titled “Buy This Column on the Blockchain!” on Wednesday, Roose has successfully auctioned today what he calls a “digital original” of his article as an NFT on the Foundation platform, raising over $550,000 for charity. 

The last half-hour of the auction was a particularly exciting one, with a bidding war breaking out to drive up the price from just under $50,000 to the final $562,891 sale. Competing for the coveted digital clip was Facebook veteran and stealth startup founder J Ouyang and the eventual winner, Dubai-based production company 3F Music. 

The proceeds of the sale are…
