After hype about the start: PancakeSwap wants to use mainnet on Aptos

 


On October 20, the developers of the popular decentralized exchange (DEX) PancakeSwap proposed deploying their mainnet on the Layer 1 blockchain Aptos.


PancakeSwap is currently based on BNB Chain and processes around $47 million in trading volume daily. Now the developers of the DEX have presented the first multichain migration proposal after the launch of Aptos on October 17th and write about it: 


"Aptos is a next-generation L1 with low transaction costs, high transaction throughput and high transaction speeds. The network offers a novel and developer-optimized approach to parallel execution. PancakeSwap has developed a strong relationship with the Aptos team and many applications in its developer ecosystem are for PancakeSwap partnerships and products."

If the proposal is accepted, the developers will roll out four key DEX features on Aptos by Q4 2022, including swaps, farms, pools, and initial farm offerings. According to the developers, this is to ensure that PancakeSwap can quickly establish itself as the leading DEX on Aptos.will also be available natively on the Aptos blockchain. Voting on this will start shortly on the platform.


Aptos was founded by former Meta employees Mo Shaikh and Avery Ching, who were also involved in the company's failed stablecoin project called Diem. In July , Aptos Labs raised $150 million in a funding round led by FTX Ventures and Jump Crypto, bringing it to a $1 billion valuation.


The project has attracted a lot of attention among developers due to its supporters and due to its promotion with 130,000 transactions per second. However, as of press time, the Aptos mainnet can only handle around 16 TPS, which is well above the 4 TPS recorded when the mainnet launched three days earlier.


On the first day of listing on Binance, APT/USDT has fluctuated between $100 and $1. Currently, the pair has stabilized around $7.

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...

Phishing attack on popular crypto sites tries to empty wallets

  Several major crypto sites such as Etherscan, CoinGecko, DeFi Pulse, and others report malicious pop-ups scammers use to try to trick users into connecting their MetaMask wallets. The phishing attack came from a domain displaying the Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) logo. "We are investigating the root cause of this attack to fix the threat as soon as possible," CoinGecko founder Bobby Ong tweeted. The phishing attack appears to have been triggered by a malicious ad script from Coinzilla, a crypto ad network, according to CoinGecko. Etherscan also advises its users not to confirm any transactions that may appear on the website. The attackers attempted to use the hype around the “bored monkeys” non-fungible tokens (NFT) to gain access to the cryptocurrencies of unsuspecting website visitors. Although the websites affected by the scam attempt have reacted in the last few hours and deactivated the advertising pop-up, it is still recommended not to connect your MetaMask wallet to ne...

Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs stolen through phishing on Instagram

  Bored Ape Yacht Club ( BAYC ) developers announced on Monday that hackers have hijacked the official Instagram page of the popular NFT collection and posted links to a fake airdrop. Crypto enthusiasts who connected their MetaMask wallet to the rogue website subsequently had their Ape NFTs stolen. Apparently, the attack was planned to coincide with the one-year anniversary of the BAYC collection. This increased the "perceived credibility" of the phishing link. About 100 NFTs are said to have been stolen in the phishing attack . According to CoinGecko data , the minimum price for a BAYC NFT is 139 Ether ( ETH ) or $400,726. So if reports are correct, over $40 million worth of NFTs were stolen in the attack. These numbers are only the lowest estimate, however, as they are based on the lowest price.  At the time of writing, it was still unclear how the hackers gained access to BAYC's official Instagram account. Social media users have pointed out the importance of two-fact...
