Vitalik Buterin offers principles of daily crypto life

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin shared his insights on the fundamental principles that shape the daily lives of cryptocurrency users. 

His remarks came in response to an X thread by crypto project designer OxDesigner, who questioned the long-term value of meme coins within the crypto ecosystem.

OxDesigner expressed concern over the persistent popularity of meme coins. He argued that previous market cycles have significantly expanded the functionality and reach of cryptocurrencies. 

These cycles have brought decentralized currency, programmable money, peer-to-peer (P2P) international payments, and unrestricted financial services. However, he questioned how meme coins contribute to improving daily life and felt their impact was more entertainment-focused than enduring.

Buterin outlines crypto’s areas of impact

In response, Buterin highlighted several key areas where crypto is making a difference in daily life. He emphasized the potential of zero-knowledge (zk) reputation systems, identity verification, and credential management. These projects can improve privacy and security with the management of personal information.

He also noted improvements in P2P cross-border payments. Lower fees and better user experiences are making these transactions more accessible and practical for everyday use. In May, MasterCard debuted a product in this area.

Buterin further pointed to the growing relevance of decentralized social platforms, which offer new ways for communities to interact and share information without relying on centralized authorities. One entity in this niche is Farcaster, which Buterin has previously praised.

Prediction markets were another area of focus for the Ethereum founder. He highlighted their increasing usability, as they facilitate more accurate forecasting. Moreover, privacy enhancements were also called to attention. 

Buterin mentioned enterprise applications through the scaling protocol Validium. Finally, he discussed zk-based censorship-resistant voting systems, which can ensure the integrity and anonymity of votes.

Essentially, while meme coins might draw attention for their entertainment value, the core principles and applications of crypto are driving significant advancements in how people interact, transact, and secure their information. Buterin had also previously advocated for meme coins to have higher quality.

Polygon ID officially spins out as Privado ID

Privado ID, a privacy-centric digital identity solution formerly known as Polygon ID, has officially announced its spin-off from Polygon Labs.

Identity theft and fraud has evolved into a major problem within crypto, particularly with AI-generated misinformation. On June 12, a new Javelin Strategy & Research report showed that losses from identity theft and fraud reached a staggering billion in 2022, with over 40 million adults in the United States impacted.

While a global issue that could affect even more people with AI deepfakes on the rise, there’s good news: the industry is taking this head on and experts say that more is being done to support security online.

According to the team at Privado ID, spinning out of Polygon allows the project to focus on scaling a secure, self-sovereign digital ID solution. It is built on the blockchain and decentralized, Privado ID provides for an on-chain solution that offers both a private interaction and the tools to mitigate risks such as AI-generated misinformation. This protocol-agnostic platform offers the identity tools that users can leverage to establish the authenticity and source of digital content.

With Privado ID, users have full control of their data. One can tap into the platform’s simplified process for proving humanity, using cryptography and zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) to prove one’s age, qualifications and other unique traits without the risk of exposing sensitive personal details.

Apart from verifying compliance, users can use Privado ID to distribute incentives and interact with tokenized assets. “Privado ID’s identity infrastructure empowers everyday people and lowers the cost of trust across industries,” Antoni Martin, co-founder of Privado ID, told crypto.news.

“We believe that Privado ID’s technology, with its emphasis on privacy, user control, and interoperability, will revolutionize how individuals, agents, and organizations find each other and interact in connected spaces, lowering the cost of trust and mitigating the risks of identity theft, fraud, and misinformation,” he added.

Livepeer price surges 17%, profit-taking increases

Livepeer (LPT) has emerged as the top gainer among the top 100 cryptocurrencies with the recent price rally. However, profit-taking could mean a sharp U-turn.

LPT is up by 17.7% in the past 24 hours and is trading at .5 at the time of writing. The asset briefly touched an intraday high of .16 earlier today. Livepeer’s price rally helped its market cap surpass the 0 million mark, making its way to the leading 100 cryptocurrencies list — currently sitting on the 95th spot.

Moreover, the daily trading volume of Livepeer increased by 108%, reaching 0 million.

Livepeer was launched in 2017 as the first decentralized and open-source live video streaming platform. Its native token plunged to an all-time low of .42 in March 2020. However, the 2021 bull run brought LPT to an all-time high of 0.24 on Nov. 9, 2021.

According to data provided by Santiment, the LPT exchange inflow increased by 115% over the past 24 hours — rising from 60,638 tokens to 130,250 LPT coins. The heightened inflows show that some investors, including whales, are aiming for short-term profits.

Data from the market intelligence platform shows that the Livepeer exchange outflow surged by 42% in the past 24 hours — rising from 74,984 coins to 106,630 tokens. This movement shows that some holders are aiming for long-term investments.

Per Santiment, the LPT relative strength index (RSI) rose from 48 to 61 over the past day. The indicator shows that Livepeer is slightly overbought at this point.

Consequently, LPT could potentially witness high price volatility due to the increased trading volume, exchange inflows and RSI.

Report: Bitcoin sees a surge in short-term investors 

A recent Bitfinex Alpha report shows a shift in Bitcoin ownership. Short-term investments surge, driven by the popularity of spot Bitcoin ETFs, while long-term holders remain confident in the market.

Recently, there has been a notable change in Bitcoin (BTC) ownership in the crypto market, especially among short-term holders.

Short-term Bitcoin investors, meaning those typically holding Bitcoin for less than 155 days, have significantly increased their activity. Their combined holdings rose from 2.2 million BTC in January to more than 3.4 million BTC by mid-April — that’s nearly a 55% increase. 

This rise is mainly linked to the increasing impact of spot Bitcoin ETFs.

Short-term vs. long-term holders

According to the report, the increase in short-term holders indicates a strong level of investment in BTC, driven by the launch and growing popularity of spot Bitcoin ETFs. The concentration of these brief asset holdings near the current market price indicates substantial investment activity at this particular price point. However, short-term holders also lead to vulnerability and price fluctuations, which can lead to potential risks or price drops.

This short-term holder number steadily rises due to new players entering the market and buying Bitcoin. However, the price stays the same because older coins are being distributed. The market is still resetting, and the ,000-70,000 price point will be the new floor for BTC, much like ,000 became a base in 2020.

The supply held by short-term holders currently stands at approximately 3.3 million BTC, a slight decrease from the mid-April peak. This decrease is due to the market correction in March that occurred after Bitcoin reached its all-time high. 

Bullish sentiment for long-term BTC holders

On the other hand, long-term Bitcoin holders are demonstrating a remarkable show of confidence in the market. After Bitcoin achieved a new all-time high of ,666 in March, many long-term holders sold significant amounts of their BTC. 

Recent data shows that the trend of selling Bitcoin has stopped, and instead, long-term holders are now starting to accumulate Bitcoin. The amount of Bitcoin held by investors for over a year has remained almost unchanged, indicating that these investments are being held onto rather than being actively traded.

Furthermore, just about 0.03 % of the supply held by long-term investors comprises coins that were bought at prices higher than the current spot price. In the initial stages of a bull market, it’s common to see long-term investors holding onto their profitable positions.

Bitcoin whales are also accumulating Bitcoin at a pace reminiscent of the pre-2020 bull run, leading to a new historical high in their Bitcoin balance.

Circle launches Programmable Wallets and Gas Station on Solana

Circle has expanded its Web3 Services, adding support for Solana, the company said in an announcement.

Circle’s Web3 Services empower businesses and developers looking to launch on-chain apps. To bring these benefits to Solana, Circle is launching its Programmable Wallets and gas stations on the network.

“With this initial launch of Circle’s Programmable Wallets supporting the Solana ecosystem, we’re excited to empower Solana developers to build innovative applications that are secure, scalable, fast, and cost efficient,” Circle noted.

Integration will be in two phases

Circle plans to enable the integration in two phases, starting with support for Programmable Wallets and Gas Station. The platform’s APIs and SDKs will allow developers to build and scale applications with fungible token transfers and capacity to sponsor end user transaction fees.

The next phase of the integration will see developers benefit from support for non-fungible tokens (NFTs) and Smart Contract Platform interactions. Updates will also allow for additional use cases, including NFT integration in gaming and for brand loyalty.

Currently, Circle’s Programmable Wallets are enabled for Ethereum, Polygon PoS, and Avalanche. Solana is the latest blockchain integration.

Solana’s network growth

Circle’s expansion of its Web3 Services to Solana is only the latest collaboration that aims to strengthen the blockchain platform.

The company also offers native USDC and EURC integration on Solana, and enabled its Cross-Chain Transfer Protocol (CCTP) on the network in March.

Solana has also seen major partnerships and integrations with other ecosystem players. Recently, Squads Labs announced Solana’s first smart wallet Fuse, unveiling a public TestFlight for iOS.

In late May, payments giant PayPal expanded native availability of its stablecoin PayPal USD (PYUSD) to Solana.

PayPal noted that the integration is key to enhancing commerce across the globe, with users benefitting from transaction speed and low costs.

Space and Time debuts sub-second ZK prover

California-based crypto startup Space and Time has released a new high-performance ZK prover to improve on-chain transactions and defi growth.

Space and Time (SxT), a custom-built compute layer, granted public access to its sub-second zero-knowledge (ZK) prover stack, dubbed Proof of SQL. The ZK-proof system was previously made available to a few SxT clients in alpha last August.

ZK provers were necessitated by privacy needs, a cornerstone of cryptographic technology. The fundamental thesis of ZK models allows users to demonstrate that data or transactions are valid or true without revealing additional information. 

Several web3 developers, including Ethereum’s Vitalik Buterin, have stressed the role of ZK stacks in building reliable decentralized finance (defi) ecosystems. The technology is viewed as crucial for ensuring safe on-chain interactions for smart contract protocols and end-users. However, ZK proofs have been known to sometimes slow down execution. 

SxT co-founder and head of research Jay White, PhD, said his team developed the Proof of SQL program “so that smart contracts and AI agents can ask questions about a chain’s activity, as well as off-chain data, and receive back trustless SQL query results on-chain during a transaction without having to wait for 30 minute proof times.”

The web3 data warehouse said its Proof of SQL delivers better-optimized processing architecture for large-scale operations compared to generalized zk-Virtual Machines and co-processors. 

According to SxT and White, the ZK prover executed queries for over 100,000 row tables in under one second on a single GPU united. The model can be integrated into zkVMs on blockchains like Ethereum (ETH) for faster speeds and bigger tasks.

Merlin Chain brings staking opportunities and DeFi access to Bitcoin

Merlin Chain is bringing the much-anticipated decentralized finance (DeFi) opportunities to Bitcoin holders, thanks to a suite of innovative integrations and its proof-of-stake (PoS) mechanism.

Bitcoin Layer-2 blockchain Merlin Chain has seen more than billion worth of Bitcoin (BTC) bridged in the last 45 days. Now its eyeing further growth as it bring more benefits for BTC holders. In this case, the platform wants to be the game-changer for staking rewards and yield-generation on Bitcoin.

It’s goal is enable greater access to DeFi for BTC holders, opening up lucrative opportunities beyond hodling.

Merlin Chain aims to revolutionize Bitcoin’s DeFi landscape

Despite being one of the best-performing assets in the world over the past decade or so, Bitcoin holders have still missed on numerous earning avenues, Merlin Chain founder Jeff said.

“We are therefore delighted to finally grant BTC investors and hodlers concrete incentives to not just HODL, but earn and participate in the exciting DeFi ecosystem!” he noted.

Among these opportunities, which Ethereum currently dominates, are yield-generating prospects such as staking, liquidity mining and yield farming. Merlin Chain is unlocking these and other use cases that mirror “Ethereum’s mature DeFi ecosystem,” Jeff added.

The most notable aspect however, is that Bitcoin’s robust security and scarcity power the BTC DeFi ecosystem. It’s a scenario that also seeks to tap into an ecosystem with one of the most ardent user base in crypto.

Stake BTC to earn rewards

Users can earn yield on their BTC by bridging via Merlin Bridge.

When a holder locks their coins on the layer-1, they receive gas BTC that they can stake to generate a wrapped Bitcoin asset M-BTC. Like stETH, holders of M-BTC earn staking rewards.

Other opportunities that come with M-BTC include liquidity provision for yields, lending, borrowing, and derivatives. Users can stake M-BTC on Solv Protocol or bridge SolvBTC on Linea among other DeFi integrations.

Over 0 million in rewards distributed

Merlin Chain’s growth as a top Bitcoin L2 for yield is clear given the billion worth of assets bridged to and from the network.

More than that, the network has seen over 0 million in BTC distributed from the platform to Layer-2 networks that offer complementary rewards.

Merlin Chain, which currently has over .2 billion in total value locked (TVL) has partnered with some of the leading digital asset custodians and institutions to enhance its activities. These include Fireblocks, Cobo, Ceffu, and Antalpha, a subsidiary of Bitmain.

Crypto market rebounds on soft CPI data

Crypto markets jumped on June 12 after U.S. CPI numbers for May came in flat, fueling expectations for promising inflation data.  

U.S. Consumer Price Index (CPI) data was unchanged last month, down from 0.3% in April. The year-over-year (YoY) CPI also dropped from 3.4% in April to 3.3% in May, besting predictions that data would remain the same. 

Core CPI YoY levels declined from 3.6% to 3.4% last month, the lowest rate since April 2021. The general consensus estimated a 3.5% point for this index. 

Following the improved data, the total crypto market cap grew by 3% to reach .65 trillion, per CoinGecko. Bitcoin (BTC) broke a two-day red streak with a 4% surge, leaping above ,300, while Ethereum (ETH) increased by nearly 3% to ,639 at the time of writing. 

Other digital assets ranked in the top 10 tokens, like BNB, Solana (SOL), XRP, Dogecoin (DOGE), and Toncoin (TON), also posted modest gains on the day.

Softer inflation data could buoy crypto prices 

A QCP Capital report suggested that crypto traders and investors anticipated cooler inflation data from the forthcoming Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting. 

The firm noted “aggressive buying” of June 13 calls and increased funding rates, indicating market positioning for an upside move.

“A neutral FOMC outcome could propel the crypto market to retest its highs once more,” said QCP Capital analysts. 

Cryptocurrencies and risk assets could see liquidity inflows if the Fed mirrors decisions from other apex banks. Recently, the European Central Bank and the Bank of Canada slashed rates. The U.S. dollar index (DXY) rose to a 30-day high following the news, meaning more capital became available for investments.
