DeFi researchers on Ethereum merge: Ether (ETH) can even overtake Bitcoin (BTC) with PoS

 


Ethereum is getting closer to transitioning to Proof-of-Stake (PoS). A DeFi researcher is now saying that the Bitcoin ( BTC ) platform could challenge its throne as the largest cryptocurrency. 


In a Twitter thread, researcher Vivek Raman highlighted that the planned Ethereum merge could create a better economic structure for the smart contract platform. According to Raman, the move to PoS will lower Ether ( ETH ) inflation, provide more security and position the cryptocurrency as a digital bond.


Raman stated ETH inflation would fall from 4.3 percent to 0.22 percent after the merge. He went on to say that this enables the ecosystem to reduce emissions by 95 percent and caps the number of ETH that can be sold in a day. 


In addition, the researcher explained that the security conditions of the platform will be better after the merger. Citing a post by Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, Raman stressed that it would become more expensive to attack the network once it is PoS.


Alongside these arguments, Raman also believes that with the Ethereum Merge, ETH will complement Bitcoin use cases as a store of value and security. While BTC will act as digital gold, according to Raman, ETH will position itself as a digital bond and will be DeFi's main asset used as collateral.


In early July, average gas fees for transactions on the Ethereum network dropped to $1.57 . Such a value was last reached in 2020. The decrease in gas fees is a consequence of the downward trend in NFT sales. Daily NFT purchases have fallen to a yearly low.


While the network's gas fees are low, the number of registrations for the Ethereum Name Service increased by 200 percent . The ENS dashboard showed a jump from 11,042 to 29,727 registrations. The hype is also attributed to the second-biggest ENS sale, which happened the same weekend as the surge in registrations.

The 5 largest platforms for non-fungible token (NFT) collectibles

  Since the beginning of 2021, non-fungible tokens (NFT) have had no holding back and the sector is setting new records almost every day.  More and more artists, stars and brands are realizing the potential - NFT are well on their way to catapulting the crypto space into the mainstream.  But which collectibles are currently the most popular? What are NFT? NFT are unique tokens that cannot be exchanged one-for-one for an equivalent token.  Any asset that is tokenizable can be an NFT.  This includes, for example, (digital) works of art, trading cards, game items and crypto domains.  Theoretically, however, real estate or securities can also be mapped as NFT. NFTs can be used to transparently map ownership structures on a public blockchain.  This allows them to store value just like real objects, even if additional copies are easy to make.  For example, the original picture of the Mona Lisa is significantly more valuable than a photo, as everyone kno...

CARDALONIA: THE CARDANO METAVERSE OPENS THE GATES!

  Have you ever been to Cardalonia? With these words, the Cardano Metaverse called Cardalonia starts the gates. In this 3D world, developers and users can interact with each other. First of all, users have to create an individual character with which they can move online. After that you can enter one of the worlds built by developers with this character. You can also purchase your own land in the Cardano Metaverse via the marketplaces in Cardalonia . This is secured by Cardano's blockchain technology and therefore offers a relatively secure transfer of ownership. Since these are only digital plots of land, it is not yet entirely clear when the plots of land are purchased whether they can also be sold again in the future. A possible profit cannot be estimated at the moment. In Cardalonia, the cryptocurrency Lonia is used. The maximum amount of tokens in circulation is 100,000,000. The team consists of Alice Sand (Co-Founder), Vasil Air (CTO) and Dustan Water (Fullstack Developer). T...

Cardano: This is the vision that founder Charles Hoskinson has
