Virtual Ponzi Scheme Implodes - Cryptocurrency Masterminds Are Missing - BitcoinEthereumNews.com

KabuhayanVirtual Ponzi Scheme Implodes – Cryptocurrency Masterminds Are Missing06 / 15 / 2022Balita ng Ethereum ng Bitcoin  Virtual implosion  makulitn  The virtual investment promises were compelling: High return, no inflation risk, complete safety, absolute privacy, and immediately transferable to anywhere. Moreover, there was no interference – no regulations, taxes, fees, red tape. Clearly, this virtual investment would be the top choice in the modern age. Nothing could go wrong with the latest inovation: cryptocurrency.  Oops!  It turns out there was a “hidden” weakness. New buyers were required to reward previous buyers, thereby attracting more new buyers – just like in Charles Ponzis scheme (and the countless others that occurred before and after his). Should sellers outnumber buyers, the cycle reverses.  It appears that day has come. The heavy hitters who are less enamored with being part of a modern movement appear to be selling. Those vacating “investors” likely include a mix of privacy seekers like dictators, oligarchs, organized crime figures, and ransomware attackers.  Making matters worse are the leveraged funds of funds that compound returns only if prices rise. Otherwise, they go bust as investors bail.  Finally, there are the offshoots. Their implosions give the same message as dying canaries in a mine: “Get out!” NFTs (non-fungible tokens)

Short Sellers Hit Tron  Trouble started brewing in the Tron ecosystem on June 13 when the platforms native token, Tron (TRX), lost a significant percentage of its value in overnight trading.

USDD Still Struggling Despite Measures to Shore Up its Value  Trons struggles, coupled with the ongoing volatility in the broader crypto market, subsequently led to the USDD stablecoin dipping below its $1 peg to trade at $0.97 per unit.  Tron DAO has injected more than 700 million USD Coin (USDC) to help defend the USDD peg. And while the stablecoin has made slight gains, it is still almost two cents below its ideal value.

CFO says no margin call yet  In May, MicroStrategy chief financial officer Phong Le said the company might have to post more collateral or sell some of its bitcoin in the event of a margin call, prompted by a decline in the price of BTC below $21,000.  Bitcoin fell below that threshold on Tuesday, dropping to around $20,800 before recovering to over $22,000. At the time

Coinbase Cuts Employees By 18% as Market Outlook Remains Bleak

CEO Brian Armstrong has announced that approximately 18% of all of Coinbase Global Incs workforce will be laid off as the cryptocurrency trading platform strategizes to navigate the now evident crypto winter.  While Armstrong cited over-hiring in the wake of the Nasdaq-listed American cryptocurrency trading platforms expansion in early 2021 as one of the reasons for the explosive growth, it noted that the reality of the economic outlook is not encouraging and the business has to survive in case the recession is drawn out for much longer. Armstrong said the decision to lay off the staff is to cut costs and drive increased efficiency across the board.  “As we operate in this highly uncertain period in the world, we want to ensure we can successfully navigate a prolonged downturn,” Armstrong said in the note shared with all of the companys staff.  “For the past few months, adding new employees has made us less efficient, not more. We have seen ourselves slow down considerably due to coordination headwinds, and difficulty fully integrating new team members. We believe the targeted resourcing changes we are making today will allow our organization to become more efficient.”  Coinbase Woes is Encompassing  Coinbase stock is currently trading at $51.86, down from

Bitcoin crypto EthereumCrypto Market Sheds $80B in Hours: BTC Struggles at $20K, ETH Amid $1K (Market Watch)06 / 15 / 2022Balita ng Ethereum ng Bitcoin  The adverse price movements in the crypto markets just dont seem to stop as bitcoin took another leg down and is close to breaking below the $20,000 mark. Some altcoins are in even worse shapes, with TRX dumping 25%, while ETH could fall beneath $1,000.  Will $20K Hold for Bitcoin?  It was just last week when the primary cryptocurrency was aiming high and challenged $32,000 on a few occasions. However, it failed there and returned to a familiar ground of around $30,000.  The US inflation numbers from Friday sent BTC south by a thousand dollars before the situation worsened during the weekend. In just a few days, the asset fell to $26,000, but even more pain followed.  Bitcoin dropped by $3,000 on Monday to a multi-year low and, after a minor recovery session yesterday, tinusok to $21,000. The landscape today is bearish as well. BTC is currently under that level and is close to breaking below the 2017 ATH of $20,000.
