Crypto's promise (or one of them) is to reduce the cost of peer-to-peer value transfer. Today, I'm thrilled to announce that CoinMENA users can now send USDT anywhere in the world with zero fees! I'm proud to announce that we are now the most efficient way to convert your fiat to crypto. Our platform offers multiple onramps, zero-fee bank deposits in the UAE and Bahrain, card deposits, support for dozens of assets and chains, and the best local currency to USDT swap rates. As we grow and solidify our leadership position in the region, we always strive to listen to what our users want. You asked for reduced fees on USDT withdrawals, so we decided to go even further and offer zero withdrawal fees! This offer won't last forever—or maybe it will; we'll see how our users respond. Relatedly, Tron have sorted out gas abstraction so you don't need to have TRX in your wallet, and the fees can be deducted directly from the stablecoin being transferred. In the meantime, enjoy sending money anywhere with no fees. Give it a try and let us know what you think!

Latest insights from Coinbase Mid Year Review, with implications for technical Web3 founders: 🔧 Resilience in the Digital Assets Class: Even in a turbulent economy, digital assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum are proving resilient. Regions with clear regulatory frameworks, such as the UAE, are becoming innovation hotspots. These bell weather tokens green light founders' confidence to innovate on the frontier in #blockchain and #Web3. 📈 Accelerating Adoption from Layer 2 Blockchain: As fees on blockchains continue to deflate, adoption accelerates, as measured by Total Value Locked (a measure of locked tokens), total transactions, and active wallets (a measure of user activity on blockchain). Certain Layer 2 blockchains are hitting tipping points of adoption in 2024. 🧠 Harmonizing #AI and Web3: The report highlights how integrating AI into Web3 platforms can drive exponential improvements in product development, user engagement, and operational efficiency. Think AI-powered smart contracts, automated customer service, or dynamic token economies — these are no longer futuristic ideas but are near term venture opportunities. Why You Should Care: As a technical founder, the robust infrastructure provided by blockchain and the computational power of AI opens up new realms of product possibilities. The report underscores the potential of Web3 gaming and tokenized AI to disrupt traditional models. Consider how these trends can enhance your product offerings and user experience. Furthermore, Apple's recent announcements in their AI strategy will bring AI to the consumer, further opening up product design possibilities that incorporate the aligned Web3 business models. Venture capital is actively looking for early stage investments in this area. We at Decasonic are committed to backing outlier founders harnessing these transformative technologies. We invest in projects that align with our vision of a technology intersections.

Big news for Token Bay Capital! We've been granted In-Principle-Approval from Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM)'s financial services regulator (FSRA), for a first of its kind license which permits us to invest in #tokens as well as equity investments in early stage crypto start-ups 🙌 As the digital assets space continues to mature and evolve, it was vital for us to be able to bring tokens under the regulatory net as we've taken a regulatory-first approach from day one. We're excited to have the support of ADGM and the FSRA who share our vision, and proud to have played a part in helping to shape the regulations and push the crypto venture industry forwards. "This marks the first phase of global expansion for Token Bay, and we're excited to have been granted the IPA in ADGM for venture capital investment in tokens as well as in equity. Blockchain technology has the potential to drive innovation through tokenization, and as blockchain networks continue to evolve, it is important that as venture capitalists we are fully equipped to support talented founders building in Web3 by directly participating in these networks and taking an ownership stake through tokens." "We extend our sincerest thanks to the regulator for their forward-thinking approach and open dialogue so that we were able to reach this important milestone and establish Token Bay in one of the world's leading international financial centres and digital assets hub." Token Bay now has a presence in the Middle East and Asia, and we're thrilled to be building in two of the world's leading digital assets hubs! 💪🏻🇦🇪🇭🇰 #crypto #cryptocurrency #tokens #blockchain #regulation #venturecapital #investing https://lnkd.in/g-B934Ph

Ethereum layer-2 blockchain Starknet is set to revolutionize the blockchain space by introducing artificial intelligence (AI) agents that can autonomously perform on-chain activities. Developed by Giza, which recently secured $3 million in funding led by CoinFund, these AI agents are designed to optimize yield, reallocate portfolios, and even act as robo-advisors to tailor portfolio allocations based on user risk preferences. Scheduled for deployment by the end of June, the AI agents will initially focus on yield aggregating—automatically finding and investing in the highest return avenues. Future capabilities will include providing liquidity on decentralized exchanges and making leveraged price bets to adjust crypto holdings strategically. Utilizing Starknet's unique features, such as account abstraction and Zero-Knowledge proofs, these agents promise to maximize returns while ensuring user privacy and security. This pioneering approach positions Starknet at the forefront of integrating AI with blockchain technology, potentially transforming how users interact with Web3 platforms.

Project Cedar of the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Innovation Center (NYIC), and Ubin+ of the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) - Improving wholesale cross-border multi-currency payments and settlements using Wholesale CBDC based on DLT. Cedar x Ubin+ explores the technical feasibility of a hypothetical DLT- enabled wholesale CBDC prototype to address the challenges of speed, cost, transparency, and access in cross-border. Cedar x Ubin+ investigated two approaches for designing networks supporting multiple wholesale CBDCs - 1. Interlinking distinct CBDC networks typically relies on a shared technical interface or clearing mechanism like hashed timelock contract (HTLC). HTLCs are time-bound smart contracts that act as bridges between ledgers based on distinct technologies, allowing for atomic settlement of digital assets that are maintained on different ledgers and/or are operated by distinct parties. 2. A Multi-CBDC Common Platform - Networks with multiple CBDCs could be designed based on common infrastructure, whereby participants hold and settle CBDCs on a jointly operated platform. Common platforms enable central banks to exercise control over their respective currencies by limiting access of CBDC to participating commercial banks and institutions within the platform #cbdc #crossborderpayments #wholesalecbdc #digitalassets #tokenization #interoperability #centralbanks Bank for International Settlements – BIS

In Dubai this week for one of the largest #Web3 conferences. At Antler, we are expanding our global Web3 investing effort (& I’m looking for people) 📣 I'm especially keen to meet serious operators, technologists and investors looking to collaborate (and esp. around AIxCrypto, DePIN, DeSci, next in gaming). During the downturn, we've continued to invest selectively in exciting Web3 infra startups across the world (now a portfolio of 30+, incl. Juno, Logx (Flint Labs), Struct Finance, Peccala AminoChain, Carb0n.fi, Chainrisk ( prev UNSNARL ), PYOR, Asset ⚡️, HIFI, firebond, Tennis Finance, Singularity, etc.) For me personally, this is the 4th cycle (over 7+ yrs). Still a lot of fluff out there….The DeFi asset side is indeed maturing, the application side is still nascent. But both still exciting. And the struggle (to keep up) is real… Magnus Grimeland Fridtjof Berge Markus Bruderer

Congratulations to Charles Cascarilla & the entire Paxos team for the successful launch of the Lift Dollar (#USDL)! Your dedication to innovation and regulatory compliance has paved the way for a new era in stablecoins. 🌟A special commendation to the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) of ADGM for their diligent oversight and support in this achievement. The launch of the Lift Dollar (#USDL) by Paxos International marks a significant milestone in the world of stablecoins, especially with its regulation by the Financial Services Regulatory Authority (FSRA) of ADGM. What sets USDL apart is its unique combination of being regulated, safe, and yield-bearing. By being backed by high-quality liquid assets and offering overnight yield through Ethereum smart contracts, USDL provides users with a secure and profitable alternative to traditional savings. Moreover, USDL’s global reach, particularly in Argentina, demonstrates its potential to democratize access to financial opportunities worldwide. This innovation not only benefits token holders but also contributes to the broader adoption of blockchain technology in the global financial landscape. As we witness the rise of regulated stablecoins like USDL, it’s evident that the future of finance is becoming increasingly decentralized and accessible. #USDL #Stablecoin #ADGM #Paxos #DeFi #Blockchain #FinancialInnovation #Regulation #Compliance
