Fantom with rising TVL - winner in the crisis?

 


Fantom surprises in the middle of the crash. According to platform DeFiLlama, “Total Value Locked” is up around 38% over the past seven days. However, the leading protocols suffered double-digit losses over the same period. Avalanche (AVAX) and Solana (SOL) were also among the big losers.


This brings Fantom closer to third place among DeFi blockchains based on TVL. Already last year there was a big chair shift in the ranking. Terra overtook and is now in 2nd place behind Ethereum. Binance Smart Chain lost shares and is in 3rd place.


This puts Fantom in fourth place, closely followed by Avalanche and Solana. What's remarkable is that this is growth that's happening in the midst of the crisis.


FTM price also collapsed

The FTM course also collapsed in the last few days, but was able to move much closer to its all-time high than its competitors. This gives some hope because if the situation for the overall market turns around again, Fantom might be one of the hottest candidates for a rally.


But until Bitcoin changes direction and starts a countermovement after the sell-off of the last few days, it is very likely that nothing will come of it. The key currency of the crypto market remains captive in the face of the Fed's policy and awaits the results of the recent FOMC meeting.


In this regard, the question of whether the Federal Reserve's change of direction is priced in or whether investors will only react to the next announcement is particularly exciting. If one is to assume that the market has yet to capitulate, then the low volume so far would be a good indicator that it has not yet done so. On the other hand, such a bang is not absolutely necessary, as the market sentiment seems to be that many investors are already sitting in cash positions and are simply waiting to see what happens.


So there remains a lot of tension in the market that could unwind in the coming days and weeks.

From offchain to offchain: Statechains meets Lightning

  Without a doubt, the most significant off-chain Bitcoin solution is the Lightning network. But in its wake, the statechain has emerged as an intriguing replacement. There is currently a proposal to link the two offchain networks. From an ocean, for example, you can see sunbeams glistening in the water, waves rippling, and possibly a jellyfish drifting toward the light. But you only see a small portion of it. The distance from the sea's surface to its bottom is hundreds of meters. It has dozens of different fish species swimming in it, crabs and starfish crawling on the bottom, shells clinging to rocks, and sea plants climbing up. A completely new world starts where your gaze diverges. You can picture a blockchain like Bitcoin, just like the sea. What you see on the outside is only a small portion of what is actually there; the set of UTXOs (coins) and transaction history that full nodes store are just the beginning of a much larger world. It's the plan, at least. With Bitcoin

MSP Recovery and Tokenology aim to optimize healthcare with the help of Polygon

  MSP Recovery LLC, a Miami, US-based healthcare provider with an estimated enterprise value of $32.6 billion, is partnering with Web3 company Tokenology to jointly launch a new blockchain platform called Lifechain. Lifechain wants to leverage the verifiable and transparent nature of blockchain technology to aggregate medical care claims, medical expense reports and patient data and streamline their processing. For this purpose, MSP Recovery launched its own LifeWallet in January, which already has 1 million users. In addition to the wallet and blockchain platform, an associated crypto token called LifeCoin is also used. The press release explains that the primary purpose of the system is to enable secondary healthcare providers to more effectively bill health insurance companies for their costs. “The number of medical claims tokenized going forward will surpass $50 million per day by 2024. For this we need scalability, security and sustainability, which we have only found with Polygon

British financial regulator criticizes cooperation between Binance and Paysafe

  The British financial regulator FCA has expressed concerns about the partnership between market-leading crypto exchange Binance and payment service provider Paysafe. As the British regulator complains, the partnership gives Binance access to the influential British payment network Faster Payments Service (FPS), from which the crypto exchange was previously cut off. Last June, the FCA ordered Binance to stop all business activities in Great Britain. As a result, prominent banks such as Barclays have terminated their cooperation with the leading crypto trading platform . Through the cooperation with Paysafe, Binance can now again offer deposits in British pounds sterling and transactions within the European Payments Area (SEPA). However, this fact is a thorn in the side of the FCA, as it classifies the crypto exchange as a “considerable risk factor”. However, the financial regulator sees little room for maneuver to counteract this, as the Financial Times reports . “ Paysafe understands
