USDC loses 20% of its market cap in 30 days



 Not only Bitcoin and other altcoins are suffering from the current bear market, but also stablecoins. Circle's stablecoin USDC has lost billions of USD in capitalization in just a few weeks.


Circle's USDC stablecoin's market cap has dropped dramatically since the Tornado Cash scandal.


Over the past month, USD Coin(USDC) has lost nearly 20% of its market cap, falling from $53.3 billion to just under $43.9 billion.


On September 26, nearly $5 billion was withdrawn from USDC in a single day, down nearly 9.2%.


This was the largest drop in USDC history. In July, the stablecoin peaked when it reached a market cap of $55.8 billion.


Although the stablecoin lost ground in July, the decision to freeze 75,000 USDC of funds associated with 44 Tornado Cash addresses was a pivotal event. This caused the stablecoin to lose an enormous amount of sympathy, leading to backlash and mass withdrawals.

MakerDAO also deposited a large portion of its reserves in USDC and considered Circle's intervention a violation of privacy rights. The project also spoke about ending its dependency on USDC, saying that given USDC's extreme degree of centralization, it could at any time meet the same fate as Tornado Cash-linked wallets.


Although everything seemed to indicate that MakerDAVO is turning its back on USDC, yesterday they announced the approval of a new proposal to deposit USDC on Coinbase's institutional custody platform and deposit up to $1.6 billion of their USDC reserves on Coinbase Prime, to generate 1.5% in rewards.


As USDC's capitalization continues to fall over the days, there are still large projects that continue to bet on a recovery.


USDC is also facing challenges from the ongoing battle for dominance of the stablecoin market, led by Binance. The crypto exchange wants to see its stablecoin number two on the market, thereby dethroning USDC.


Currently, BUSD has a market cap of $21.62 billion. Unlike USDC, Binance's stablecoin has steadily grown by more than 22% since August 12.


Binance and WazirX also delisted USDC last month, causing USDC to lose around 6% of its market cap.


While none of this bodes well for USDC's future, the stablecoin will likely manage to maintain its position among the top 5 cryptocurrencies. However, hard work needs to be done to regain the trust of the major crypto exchanges.

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

  The Altcoin Cardano has tended to decline in recent weeks.  The Alonzo upgrade was supposed to bring improvements, but it soon turned out to be a disappointment.  Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson presented his vision for the cyber motto in a live Twitter video. • Cardano in the last few months under pressure • Charles Hoskinson explains his Cardano vision via Twitter • Security and privacy at the center The cryptocurrency  Cardano  has had a difficult few months.  While founder Charles Hoskinson's cyber motto has had a strong run in 2021, it has been steadily downhill in recent months.  Cardano is faced with some difficulties.  The so-called Alonzo upgrade went live in mid-September, for which crypto fans had high hopes, but which soon turned out to be a disappointment.  The upgrade should make it possible to use smart contracts on the cryptocurrency as well.  It soon turned out, however, that although these were entered into Cardano,...
