Is MicroStrategy crazy for issuing $550 million in debt to purchase Bitcoin? The most direct answer is no, it's simply being more aggressive and bold than other institutions. If MicroStrategy had issued $550 million in debt to buy Bitcoin two years ago at this time, it would indeed have been a suicidal move, and the company's stock price would definitely have plummeted.
Editor's Note: The main purpose of this article is to remind everyone of the risks of participating in the Proof of Stake (PoS) project known as "Ethereum 2.0" or "Eth2.0", and we hope to help you understand it through this explanation. Since the only component with concrete form in the current project is the "Beacon Chain", we will use "Beacon Chain" throughout to refer to the so-called "Eth2.0". We believe that after reading through the answers to these frequently asked questions (and the attached materials), you will understand this choice.

Libra, which has attracted considerable attention since its launch, has made major moves recently. On December 1st, information updated on Facebook's official website showed that the governance organization of the stablecoin project Libra, which it championed, announced that 'Libra' will be officially renamed to 'Diem'. Meanwhile, the Diem Association will be responsible for operating this digital currency plan and is preparing to launch a stablecoin pegged to the US dollar in 2021.
On the evening of December 3rd Beijing time, Grayscale Trust held an online investor conference attended by executives from renowned institutions such as JPMorgan Chase, Barron's Group, and Mastercard, conveying to the outside world the image of capital giants consulting on the future of the crypto industry. Grayscale's continuous accumulation of crypto assets demonstrates its full force, showing the effectiveness of its compliant background and relentless promotion efforts.

On December 5th, the 'Believe in the Future -- 2020 World Blockchain Conference·Wuhan' officially opened at the Wuhan International Expo Center. Li Lihui, former Governor of the Bank of China, delivered a keynote speech titled 'Blockchain Technology and Digital Transformation' at the conference. Ostrich Blockchain reporter arrived at the conference venue and delivered the latest news. The following is the full text of Li Lihui's speech. He stated that digital currency will hold a core position in digital economy competition. Digital currency can be used for domestic or cross-border payments within the country, and can also be used for domestic or cross-border payments in other countries, which is conducive to improving payment efficiency.
First, based on DeLin Capital's long-term research on the Polkadot ecosystem, we must clearly point out that Polkadot has not achieved a true ecosystem until parachains are officially connected to Polkadot or the Kusama relay chain and achieve interoperability. Even though we can see that there are currently approximately 400 projects in the Polkadot ecosystem, with most of them based on the Substrate framework, we can only consider this a relatively loose 'alliance'. In order to achieve stability and sufficient asset scale,
Ethereum has often been criticized for its 'loose' monetary policy, but as ETH 2.0 begins to launch, the situation may change. The real changes will occur in 'Phase 1.5' -- after Ethereum 1.x merges into Ethereum 2.0. At that time, the annual inflation rate of ETH tokens may drop significantly. Even if it cannot reach negative inflation in the short term, it will fall below 1%. At that point, Ethereum's inflation rate will be far lower than Bitcoin.
What has been the hottest event in the entire blockchain world in the past two weeks? If you've been following the cutting-edge trends of the industry, you must be aware that in the past two weeks, no one can compete with AC (Andre Cronje) in the spotlight. In just over ten days, Yearn (YFI) dramatically announced the 'acquisition' of 5 well-known projects in the industry. People were amazed to discover that 'acquisition' events that occur in the traditional world have actually appeared in the DeFi world -- is such an operation possible?! Yes, it is possible, and unlike the traditional financial world,
How do we ensure that miners continue to generate computing power? The answer is to maintain stability in continuous investment in mining hardware to increase the network's security budget. Written by: Leo Zhang, Jack Koehler, and Cai Da, the first two from Anicca Research, a research institution for computing power and derivative products,
'In the beginning, this was still a small market (ETH in 2015). People didn't know what to set up stalls to buy or sell, but the market gradually formed, and even gave birth to small shops one after another. Some people did currency market business (Compound, Aave), some did exchange business (Uniswap). But there was an objective set from the establishment (and at that time no one knew if it was right or wrong) to build a great cathedral (ETH 2.0). People waited and often gathered to discuss.'
The crypto circle can be roughly divided into two factions: the classical faction and the new era faction. The classical faction never participates in the pursuit of 'hot trends'. No matter how much DeFi and various altcoins stir up the wind, they remain unmoved, with BTC as their only faith. The new era faction eagerly chases every round of industry trends, not missing any high-risk, high-return investment opportunity. Both the classical and new era factions can reap decent returns in different stages, but both have their costs. The classical faction needs to endure the temptation of altcoins and the torment of a prolonged battle, while the new era faction faces greater volatility risk and even the risk of coins going to zero.
Today we finally welcomed Aave Protocol V2 launching on mainnet! Aave Protocol V1 was launched earlier this year, aimed at unleashing the value of DeFi and improving user experience. In less than half a year, the growth of Aave Protocol has created DeFi records, rapidly developing into a project with a market scale exceeding 1 billion dollars. Aave V1 brought innovations such as flash loans and aTokens as new methods to improve DeFi capital efficiency.
Unless you hide in the remote mountains, it's hard not to know about the surge triggered by Rollup, Ethereum's Layer2 scalability solution. In September 2020, Ethereum's gas price hit a historic high, exceeding 477 Gwei, perhaps foreshadowing the day when gas prices skyrocket to Twei. Since the ICO craze of 2017, the Ethereum network has never been so congested before, and one could say the congestion level is even higher now. The block gas limit has also reached a historic high of 12.5 million.
BCHA is suffering sustained computing power attacks, apparently from BCHN supporters, mainly in the form of empty block attacks. Both sides of the attack and defense have undergone multiple rounds of strategy adjustments. Regardless of the attack outcome, this BCHA attack and defense battle provides excellent examples for us to understand PoW and the problems in the development of decentralized cryptocurrencies, worthy of research and reflection. 1. BCH's Three Forks On November 15, 2020, BCH forked again, the third fork after the BCH genesis fork on August 1, 2017, and the BSV fork on November 15, 2018.
December 2 news: SpaceSwap CEO Vladimir mentioned Shadow Staking during an appearance on the "HyperPay Focus" column, also called Shadow Farming, which will completely revolutionize the entire DeFi mining field. It introduces a brand new way to stake LP tokens. First, all tokens are held by users, which makes the entire mining process more secure and transparent. In addition, it does not require sending tokens back and forth, which means it essentially eliminates gas fees.
Ethereum's goal is to become a world-class computer. Ethereum 1.0 was an unremitting attempt by several people to build a world computer, while Ethereum 2.0 will ultimately achieve this goal, so Ethereum 2.0 is the true Ethereum in V God's heart. On December 1, the long-awaited Phase 0 of Ethereum 2.0 launched, marking the first step in addressing Ethereum's scalability issues. In the current phase, the beacon chain will be deployed, and validators will use Proof of Stake to create blocks. More than 21,000 validators will keep the network running after launch, with at least one-third of them validating through staking providers.
The core of DWeb 4.0 is a decentralized cloud computing platform. BitDNS is such a platform, serving as critical infrastructure for DWeb 4.0. In the network built by BitDNS, users have absolute autonomy, domain names are completely decentralized, and it is one of the most secure and lightweight products. What services can BitDNS currently provide? Compared to similar excellent competitors, what technical highlights does BitDNS stand out with? How will BitDNS avoid the increasingly significant defects of traditional servers? December 2, 3 PM,
Introduction What the digital asset field lacks is not a strict or lenient framework, but a clear boundary between legal and illegal. It has been 12 years since Satoshi Nakamoto released the Bitcoin whitepaper. Digital assets such as Bitcoin and Ethereum have gradually gained a place in the public consciousness. In the past year, the federal government's legal exploration of digital assets is accelerating. On March 9, 2020, in the early stages of the pandemic outbreak, the federal government introduced the "Cryptocurrency Act of 2020" to clarify regulatory authority over digital assets.
In the early 21st century, the complete revolution of the entire economic system was not a topic many people discussed. But then came the 2008 financial crisis. As mortgage defaults, corporate bankruptcies, and governments spending trillions of dollars to bail out banks occurred, people began to wonder if there was a better way out. One person believed he had the answer, and that person is "Satoshi Nakamoto." The true identity of "Satoshi Nakamoto" may still be a mystery, but the "electronic cash system" called "Bitcoin" that he created in 2009 has an impact far beyond just currency.
After considerable twists and turns, the Ethereum 2.0 Phase 0 beacon chain officially launched its genesis block at 8 PM Beijing time on December 1. For the Ethereum community, this is undoubtedly a critical milestone: the grand opening of Ethereum 2.0's advancement has formally begun, the overall transition from PoW to PoS is accelerating, and the vision of tens of times expansion is one step closer to realization.
As Ethereum 2.0 hurriedly prepared for the beacon chain launch, market attention was drawn away by BTC. Bullish investors stood at BTC's historic high of $19,913, expecting it to break through $20,000, but it reversed course and dropped to $18,894 at 7:25 PM Beijing time. This was more than half an hour before Ethereum 2.0 launched. At 8 PM on December 1, the Ethereum 2.0 beacon chain genesis block was generated as scheduled. At the same time, global liquidations of 419 million yuan were even more dramatic. Ethereum 2.0, like the name of this phase, departed "peacefully."

For years, the cryptocurrency market has revolved around Bitcoin. However, it is Ethereum that has elevated blockchain technology to a new level by nurturing hundreds of new blockchain networks and their native tokens. Moreover, the upcoming Ethereum 2.0 is expected to fundamentally transform its "predecessor." Ethereum introduced the concepts of smart contracts and decentralized applications (DApps) to a broader community. Today, it hosts many blockchain projects, including those thriving under the decentralized finance (DeFi) framework.
01 Introduction to Distributed Storage Modern computing is highly centralized. Over the past decade, some major cloud computing companies have divided traditional computer systems into independent, cloud-based products, reaping enormous wealth. When one of these vendors fails, network centralization leads to major internet incidents. Amazon Web Services outage recently triggered network collapse: AWS down? Don't worry, IPFS can avoid centralized service defects. So the content we host on these services won't fare much better either; it's hidden behind fragile links that often break.
In November 2020, various security incidents occurred frequently in the blockchain field. Compared to the mitigated security incidents in October, the situation this month has deteriorated. According to incomplete statistics, more than 27 typical security incidents occurred in November. This month, especially in the DeFi field, hackers executed a series of protocol "attack performances" as if they had undergone concentrated rehearsals. Among them, reentrancy attacks, oracle attacks and other means, with the assistance of flash loans, demonstrated powerful destructive force.
The next upgrade (Berlin upgrade) is on the horizon, and for this we need to arrange a network upgrade process. After several brainstorming sessions, the EIPIP team has put forward several suggestions on how to improve the network upgrade process. I hope the information shared in this article will be useful to EIP authors and the entire community. Let's understand what the new process looks like and why we need to adjust the network upgrade process that has been in use since the birth of the Ethereum blockchain. What Is a Network Upgrade? A network upgrade is the way to add new features to the Ethereum protocol.
Ethereum 2.0 Phase 0 Beacon Chain reached the minimum threshold for staking launch at a pace exceeding market expectations in a short period. Market participation enthusiasm has not diminished, and the amount of staked funds in the contract continues to show an upward trend. With the Beacon Chain launching as scheduled on December 1st, it gradually unveils the "mysterious veil" of this massive, complex, and long-anticipated Ethereum 2.0 ecosystem.
In the 2020 U.S. banking market, crypto digital finance and mainstream finance have begun an accelerated integration trend. This accelerating development trend of integration is largely the result of U.S. financial regulation. The U.S. banking system is a two-tier structure composed of federal and state levels. Banking institutions can be roughly divided into three categories. The most basic license is the Money Transmitter License (MTL). This license is issued by individual states. The threshold for obtaining this license can be very low. Institutions above MTL are trusts.
PLONK is a new universal zero-knowledge proof scheme announced by Ariel Gabizon, Zac Williamson and Oana Ciobotaru, whose full name is the cumbersome "Permutations over Lagrange-bases for Oecumenical Noninteractive arguments of Knowledge".
