“As we continue rolling out digital collectibles on Facebook and Instagram, we’ve started giving people the ability to post digital collectibles that they own across both Facebook and Instagram. This will enable people to connect their digital wallets once to either app in order to share their digital collectibles across both,” the updated blog post said. Source
▶ Coinbase Website: Coinbase.com ▶ CEX Website: cex.io Ethereum’s Merge upgrade is FINALLY here and I am so happy as an ETH holder. But unfortunately we can’t just sit back and enjoy it bc there are some troublemakers looking to fork Ethereum when the upgrade happens. It’s mainly from miners who want to keep a Proof of Work chain to continue mining it. And they are dead set on causing a Civil War in the community… so in this video I’m going to explore this whole fork plan and see…
Web 2.0 games or traditional games have long been the only form of entertainment in the gaming space.

Global crypto exchange FTX will not be acquiring a majority stake in Huobi, according to CEO Sam Bankman-Fried, or SBF. In a Monday tweet, SBF explicitly denied a Bloomberg report that claimed FTX was planning to purchase crypto exchange Huobi. Cointelegraph reported on Aug. 12 that Huobi co-founder Leon Li was considering selling his majority stake, valued at more than $1 billion, in the company. “We are not planning to acquire Huobi,” said SBF. Just to be explicit because apparently a lot of people are saying this: No, we are not…
For CoinDesk’s Sin Week, we’ll be exploring the clash of old-world finance and crypto, how Web3 can help (or not help) illicit or at least pariah industries like weed, porn, guns and gambling. In none of these cases are we suggesting that you should take part yourself. There are salubrious reasons to abstain from drugs or gambling. But we do believe that it should be up to the people to decide what vices are permissible (not a distant central government and certainly not unelected executives at Mastercard). And we, as…
On Saturday, the human rights chief at the United Nations (UN), Michelle Bachelet, said that the potential extradition of whistleblower Julian Assange raises concerns for the rights of future whistleblowers and investigative journalists. Meanwhile, cryptocurrency supporters have continued to donate to Assange and his legal battle as Wikileaks has amassed hundreds of thousands of dollars in crypto assets since Assange has been held captive in London from 2019. UN Human Rights Chief Says the United States Attempt to Extradite Assange ‘Raises Concerns Relating to Media Freedom’ The United States would…
In the society foreshadowed by such schemes, Socrates wouldn’t just be executed – he would never exist in the first place. Crime, Durkheim would argue, represents a frontier of social transformation, a realm for exploring the explicitly forbidden – and, perhaps, finding its upsides. By this view, a society without crime would become stagnant as its citizens’ dissatisfactions festered under the boot heel of uniformity. Such total control doesn’t eliminate social contradictions, instead leaving them free to build up, setting the stage for a far more violent and chaotic upheaval…

“If I were to make any recommendation regarding usability in a bear market, it would be to follow those who are building solutions to improve usability, not only in the beauty of a fast seamless two-click [user experience], but also in preserving privacy and accessibility for undocumented, marginalized or underserved populations. Because if they can make it work for those populations, it will work for most people,” Bitcoinstripper said. “We need crypto to be reliably usable in every part of the market cycle, if it is to work for us.”…
