US Law Snows $23M Stablecoin & TRON Laughs All Way to Bank-Will TRX Moon? ๐Ÿคก๐Ÿ’ธ

On the sixth of August, a Tuesday no less-there is always a Tuesday when history changes course-the third such apparition of this so-called USD1 occurred via CryptoQuant, that sextant of crypto-addled mankind. A tidy $23 million arrived; thin air gave birth to ironclad certainty. USDT and USDC peered from the corner of the ballroom like overdressed dowagers whispering: โ€œAnother one? How delightfully bourgeois.โ€ ๐Ÿ”๐Ÿ‘œ

Crypto VC Funding: Is Bitcoin the Ex They Canโ€™t Quit? ๐Ÿ˜ฑ๐Ÿ’”

Grab your coffee (or your crypto tears) and letโ€™s dive into the venture capital (VC) circus. Apparently, VCs are still throwing money at crypto startups like itโ€™s 2021, but with the enthusiasm of someone whoโ€™s been ghosted by Bitcoin. ๐Ÿ‘ป๐Ÿ’ธ Investors are betting big on blockchain, from AI-driven DeFi to tokenized assets, because who needs a stable economy when you can have digital chaos? ๐ŸŽข

The $658M Shockwave: Circle’s Blockchain Plot Unleashed ๐ŸŽข๐Ÿ’ฅ

In a press release so glossy it reflects moonlight, Circle presents Arc: an EVM-compatible marvel that pays gas fees in USDC (because nothing screams decentralization like paying fees with the very coin you minted).

From “Moron Trade” to Millionaire: Raoul Pal’s XRP Journey ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ’ฐ

In one of his recent soliloquies, Pal laid out the landscape of the crypto world, dividing it into three acts: the safe, established layer-1 tokens he called โ€œidiot-proof,โ€ the middle act of DeFi tokens, a bit trickier but still within reach, and then the final act, the โ€œmoron trade,โ€ where the newbies would flock to the cheaper seats, buying low-priced tokens without much of a second thought.

UMA’s Oracle Update: Now Only the Chosen Few Can Propose Market Resolutions ๐Ÿš€๐Ÿ”’

Now, under this shiny new MOOV2 upgrade, only those with the golden ticket (i.e., whitelisted addresses) can directly submit resolution proposals. For everyone else, itโ€™s like being at a fancy party without an invitation-unless, of course, you can tag one of the chosen ones to submit on your behalf. But fear not, dear readers, for the rest of us can still play detective and dispute any dodgy proposals we come across. Itโ€™s all about improving the quality of these proposals and, hopefully, cutting down on the squabbles, especially in those straightforward markets like sports or cryptocurrency prices. ๐Ÿ†๐Ÿ’ฐ
