SHIB Price Prediction – Where might The Memecoin Go in 2023?

Image
Join Our Telegram channel to stay up to date on breaking news coverage 2023  is just a few hours away, and people have been thinking about the performance of some of the biggest successes — and failures of this year. The double hit that the cryptocurrency market suffered this year, one due to the LUNA crash and the other due to FTX – has led many not to look at memecoins the same as they did back in 2021. Take the SHIB price, for instance. This token fell steeply once it entered 2022. And at the time of writing, it is trading at $0.000008098. But does that mean it would remain in the same price zone next year – or would something better happen that would push the price of this asset even more? SHIB Price History in 2022 2022 has been a bad year for all cryptocurrencies. Even the best altcoins have slipped from their highs to closer to their all-time lows because of the FTX-triggered crash. Memecoins, however, have received a different reaction from the c...

Huobi To Cancel Bonuses, Cut Salaries & Lay Off 600 Employees?

This year has been difficult for crypto-based organizations. Companies that exuded a strong foothold in the crypto space shut shop, the profitability numbers of the ones that managed to stay afloat went downhill, and investors paid a hefty price. With just a day left for the year to end, another not-so-positive development has shaped up. Chinese Journalist Colin Wu took to Twitter to claim that Huobi is allegedly going to cancel all year-end bonuses. Wu also stated that the exchange is preparing to lay off nearly half of its team. The size is likely to reduce from 1,200 people to 600-800 people. Citing anonymous insider sources, Wu also revealed that Huobi will slash the salaries of senior employees.

According to a letter posted on Chinese block Chain news publisher Odaily.com on Dec. 27, Kevin Como, the anonymous CEO of BitKeep, warned that users’ private keys are still at risk after a security incident on Dec. 26 led to over $13 million in losses at the time of publication. BitKeep is one of the more popular noncustodial, decentralized finance multichain wallets with over 6 million users . Specifically, Como wrote: “This was a large and atrocious hacker attack incident. The BitKeep APK 7.2.9 (Android Package Kit) installation package was hijacked and swapped by the hacker, and as a result, some users already installed the APKs that were planted malware by the hackers, leading to a leak of users’ private keys.” Como urged users who had already downloaded the Android APK 7.2.9. to transfer their digital assets to a new wallet. “It is probable that [these wa...

Bitcoin Hashrate Slides as Texas Miners Curtail Hashpower to Bolster the Grid

Image
Bitcoin’s total hashrate tapped a low of 170 exahash per second (EH/s) on Dec. 25, as reports noted that bitcoin miners in Texas curtailed their hash power during a massive winter freeze. Statistics show that close to 100 exahash dropped off the network but rebounded from the 170 EH/s low to 240 EH/s by 12:00 p.m. (ET). Texas Bitcoin Miners Curtail Computational Power After reaching 272 exahash per second (EH/s) on Dec. 24, 2022, the network’s hashrate plunged during the early hours the very next day as it dropped to 170 EH/s. A myriad of reports detail that because of the cold weather in Texas, bitcoin miners located in the area have voluntarily shut down operations. Bitcoin supporter Dennis Porter shared a screenshot of a message from the bitcoin mining operation Lancium as the business shut down its Ft. Stockton facility to give more power to the grid. “Bitcoin miners have once again voluntarily shut off power during an extreme weather event in Texas,” Porter tweeted. “Bitcoi...

Akon’s Wakanda: a shattered crypto dream or still a possibility?

Image
Join Our Telegram channel to stay up to date on breaking news coverage Akon, an R&B artist, claims that his long-delayed plans for Akon City, a metropolis in Africa on the coast of Senegal, are “100% moving.” He claims that even if goats are currently grazing there, in the future, detractors will appear “extremely foolish.” The Smack That singer also promised fans awaiting refunds from his Token of Appreciation crypto currency campaign that they would get their money back, even if he had to pay them out of his own pocket. Widely renowned for his series of No. 1 successes in the 2000s Akon, who was reared in Senegal but was born in the United States, revealed two large-scale initiatives in 2018 that were meant to symbolize the future of African society. The first was a supposedly $6 billion (£5 billion) city full of daringly curved towers. The second venture, a brand-new crypto currency named Akoin, was to power it. However, challenges and de...

After Ethereum's PoS Switch, How Many PoW Coins Are Still Relevant?

Image
Ethereum’s most significant upgrade, The Merge, changed the protocol’s consensus mechanism from Proof of Work [PoW] to Proof of Stake [PoS]. The latter model is comparatively more eco-friendly. In the days following the Merge, Ethereum’s energy usage and carbon footprint was slashed down by approximately 99.99%. Regardless, skepticism still prevails. Crypto exchange Paxful, for instance, recently delisted the largest Altcoin. Ray Youssef, the CEO Paxful said that Ethereum is not decentralized. He went on to stress that it is controlled by a small group of people and warned users that one day they will need permission to use it. Youssef then pointed out how BTC frees billions of people and opined that ETH’s shift to PoS defies the same. He added, “Proof-of-work is the innovation that makes Bitcoin the only honest money there is, whereas proof-of-stake has rendered ETH essentially a digital form of fiat.” Thus, despite Ethereum shifting to PoS, it ...
