Near Protocol (NEAR) Surges 4.74% As Daily Users Approaches ATH, Collateral Network (COLT) Real-World Utility Leads to 40% Presale Gains

0

In this article, we’ll discuss the recent 4.74% surge in Near Protocol (NEAR) as it experiences a remarkable increase in daily users, approaching it’s all-time high. We will also delve into the innovative Collateral Network (COLT), which is currently in its presale phase and has already witnessed a noteworthy 40% gain as a result of its game-changing use case.

Analyzing Near Protocol’s (NEAR) Growing Popularity

Near Protocol (NEAR) has recently been experiencing a surge in user activity, with daily users averaging 62,000 during the last 30 days — a 13.3% increase compared to the previous 30-day period.

This remarkable growth can be attributed to the various developments and infrastructure upgrades implemented by Near Protocol (NEAR) over the past year, such as the release of the Blockchain Operating System (BOS) — a common layer that makes it easier to navigate Web3.

These improvements have made it much easier for developers to build applications on Near Protocol (NEAR). In fact, active developers are also on the rise, with a 5% increase compared to the previous month.

This surge in user activity has led to Near Protocol (NEAR)’s price soaring 4.74% over the past 24 hours, which means that Near Protocol (NEAR) is now 71% up since the turn of the year. As more users adopt Near Protocol (NEAR) and developers continue to build applications on Near Protocol (NEAR), these gains are likely to keep increasing.

Analysts predict that the price of Near Protocol (NEAR) will continue to range under $2.80, with a breach of this resistance leading to Near Protocol (NEAR) quickly moving to the $6.00 level within weeks.

Collateral Network (COLT) Gains 40% During Presale

Collateral Network (COLT) is a blockchain-based lending platform that allows users to borrow against their physical assets. It’s the unique way that these assets are used as collateral that has led to its 40% gain during the presale phase. Cars, jewelry, fine art and even expensive bottles of wine can be used for a loan.

Collateral Network (COLT) tokenizes collateral into fractionalized NFTs that can be broken into smaller sizes and stored on the blockchain. This makes it easier for users to borrow against their physical assets, without having to deal with a bank or other financial institution.

With collateral broken into smaller pieces, different lenders can finance different parts of the collateral. This is a game-changer for the lending industry as now potential lenders aren’t locked out of the industry due to high minimum loan amounts.

Collateral Network (COLT) streamlines the process further with smart contracts that automatically execute the loan agreement, eliminating the need to wait for manual processing. Plus, with all loan information stored inside the NFT metadata, there is a transparent, auditable record of the loan agreement.

The COLT token is used as a means of exchange between all parties on Collateral Network (COLT). Plus, COLT holders receive the best borrowing rates, reduced fees, passive income staking, and more as Collateral Network (COLT) expands.

Analysts note that the unique use case of the COLT token and the fractionalization of collateral make Collateral Network (COLT) a game-changing product. If Collateral Network (COLT) can capture just a small chunk of the $800 billion peer-to-peer lending market, then its 40% gain during the presale phase will be only a fraction of what is yet to come.

Which Will Be Crowned King of 2023: Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Uwerx (WERX), or Curve (CRV)?

0

The crypto world seems to be shaking off the crashes of powerhouses Terra and FTX finally. The market is making a stride upward and all cryptocurrencies seem to be rising along.

Three assets, Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Uwerx (WERX), and Curve (CRV) will dominate the market this year. But out of these three, which will lead?

Will Bitcoin Cash (BCH) Be King?

The most famous fork of the original Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash (BCH) split back in 2017 after differences arose on how to improve the original cryptocurrency. While Bitcoin Cash (BCH) itself went to another fork a few years later, it is still a popular coin amongst users. Faster and more efficient, Bitcoin Cash (BCH) is valued at $2.6 billion capitalization and $193 million worth change hands a day.

Bitcoin Cash (BCH) YTD progress has been good. Gaining 39% in January alone, moving from $97 to $135. The future also holds a good outlook for Bitcoin Cash (BCH), with technical and fundamental indicators pointing to a possible high of $250, or an 85% growth.

Uwerx (WERX)’s Possible Meteoric Rise

It is seldom that new projects can have an impact that lasts a lifetime. Uwerx has all the ingredients to do so this year.

An upcoming project that aims to disrupt the freelancing industry, Uwerx allows freelancers to earn more. Uwerx will offer a reduced fee, instant payment release, and copyrights protection where market leaders fail to do so.

While its planned services are efficient, it also intends to make the whole ecosystem secure and safe for its users. Plans include a 25-year liquidity lock after presale to protect WERX (its native token) holders. Uwerx has also achieved one of its security goals. The prestigious InterFi Network and SolidProof have both already completed code audits and declared Uwerx free from weaknesses.

All planned taxes on transactions will also be let go, along with ownership moved to users eventually.

The result is an industry-wide interest in its WERX token, with forecasts putting it at $1.5 in 2023, starting from its planned presale of $0.0075. If the prediction pans out, this is a massive 14,900% jump.

Curve (CRV) Graph on The Rise

Curve (CRV) pioneered the use of AMM to offer a stablecoin trading market. Over the years, Curve (CRV) has expanded operations and uses its token for governance purposes under its DAO. As a DeFi service, Curve (CRV) has always enjoyed growth as the crypto market expands.

With 2023 starting good, Curve (CRV) is also swelling in value. The first 30 days of 2023 have resulted in a 100%+ jump. Curve (CRV) has already grown from $0.52 to $1.08.

There are predictions of another doubling this year for Curve (CRV) as people start returning to DeFi platforms. As such, it can do a 94% jump easily, with $2.1 a possibility.

Where to Invest Then?

While Curve (CRV) and Bitcoin Cash (BCH) are well-established projects and their tokens have market worth, new projects like Uwerx are where the real profit opportunities lie.

Uwerx has some strong factors that give it a real shot at being a mainstream token this year. At the same time, the expected jump in price is something that you should keep in mind when comparing Bitcoin Cash (BCH) or Curve (CRV) in your trading and investing strategies.

Why Sociology of C.Ronaldo?

0

Growing up as a teenager, I was always in my element when playing the soccer game. I had always wanted to become a footballer. I was a formidable central midfielder. My Coach, we called him Coach Samuel, got a lot of admiration for me due to my customary zest and show of team-spirit on the pitch. I inspired much grace and éclat on the field. Yet I didn’t have a big name I could think I modelled my style against. But I was sure I got a lot of love for Diedier Drogba and Christiano Ronaldo.

My general performance on the field of play was not only impacted by my practical trainings and motor skills; my habit of visualizing also significantly influenced my playmaking. I always had a mental construction of every game before it kick-started. My power of imagination was so high that I was practically unstoppable.

Back then, as a Blues fan, I often found it quite excruciating to watch C. Ronaldo play against Chelsea. The pair of Ronaldo and Wayne Rooney at the Red devil’s central forward was anybody’s source of fever. The Drogba’s effect at the Chelsea’s forward was largely dreaded too.

However, what is generally exciting about C. Ronaldo beyond his antics on the pitch is his traverse career trajectory. From his discovery at Sporting Lisbon FC in Portugal to his emergence at Manchester United in England and his heydays at Real Madrid FC in Spain, Ronaldo developed to be a role model and source of inspiration to millions of football fans globally. His conquest in Italy, playing for Juventus FC, and his current reign at Al nassr in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia also contributed to his peripatetic influence.

Ronaldo’s doggedness and competitive spirit which earned him five times ballond’ore winner are undoubtedly worthy of emulation. These qualities have given him a space in the world’s history. Among the other achievements of C. Ronaldo is that he is the only footballer that has scored goals at every minute in the overall ninety minutes in the soccer game. He is the first and currently the only player that has won the world best footballer from the English football league while he was in Manchester United in 2008. His soccer exploits spanned across different cultures and this has afforded him more currency than some other notable players.

It is not surprising that Ronaldo has become a major frame of reference in some institutions of learning in Europe and the Americas. In 2015, the British-Columbia University (UBC), Canada introduced a full-time semester course dedicated to the sociological analysis of C. Ronaldo. The sociology of Cristiano Ronaldo, although certainly not first of its kind, is intended to systematically explore and understand the socio-cultural influences on, and life histories of, Ronaldo and how these have impacted his motivation, psychology, thought pattern, achievements and global image.

The course is meant to expose students to the sociological relevance of the organised sport and what it takes to become a global celebrity and to also afford them of the opportunity to study Ronaldo’s impact on the Portuguese diaspora as well as his national identity.

According to Luis Aguiar, a professor of Sociology at the UBC Okanagan’s school of Arts and sciences and a leading pioneer of the Sociology of Ronaldo, ‘’sociology is nothing if not the delving into the processes of structuring identities and experiences and exposing the social forces that push these processes.’’

During an interview session with the UBC press, Professor Aguiar gave the following remarks about Cristiano Ronaldo:

‘’Ronaldo is said to embody features and characteristics of speed, strength, competitiveness, dogged work ethic, discipline and adaptability. These features are also in a sense very Portuguese since the Portuguese outside of the homeland are nothing if not constructed as hard working, disciplined and determined.

“Thus, even as a global athlete transcending geographical boundaries, Ronaldo cannot escape the stereotypical construction of the Portuguese.

‘’I don’t think there is anybody bigger in terms of media visibility. He may even be better known than someone like Obama.’’ Aguiar said.

The professor of sociology further expressed that his two greatest passions are football and critical sociology, and that a course on Cristiano Ronaldo availed him of the opportunity to combine the two endearvours. According to him;

‘’While I’m an admirer of Ronaldo, I’m also a sociologist interested in understanding the social and economic forces driving the various constructions of this athlete and what this says about our contemporary values and culture.’’

Like Professor Aguiar, my interest in C. Ronaldo has been partly informed by my real-life experience of his performance on the field and partly by my sociological conceptual apparatus. I strongly believe that how Ronaldo has risen through the ranks in his field and build influence across multiple cultures should be subjected to sociological inquiry and sociological imagination.

The Possibility of the Sociology of C. Ronaldo as an academic discipline has a tendency to inspire controversies. However, this should not be a problem since there can be sociology of everything or sociology of anything.

Though, having courses focussing only on the study of C. Ronaldo or any other significant personality in the society may be costly and seemingly unnecessary, there can be sociology of the celebrity and personalities where students can get to know more about their super stars. Programmes of this nature will enable the students to move beyond abstractions to relatable case studies capable of influencing their success.

Why Do You Not Fund Undergraduate Students Building Startups?

1
Fund, money cash dollar

This post has elicited many comments across the social media universe. I had posited that dropping out from the Nigerian university system to go and build companies, mimicking America, is not a better path when you consider many factors, including that the support system in venture funding in Nigeria is still evolving. A member asked this question and I responded.

Question: Why Do You Not Fund Undergraduate Students Building Startups?

My Response: You do not need to have ever been enrolled in a school to get funds from us, but if you are in one, we will not give you money until you are done with your undergraduate study. Tekedia Capital does not fund small businesses, we fund STARTUPS and you cannot combine both for the growth we expect.

Startup is not a part-time job ; it requires focus, dedication, tenacity and absolute commitment to a mission. We will not reduce our standards because a founder is in school since we want to WIN. That is why we will not fund you while you are still in your undergraduate program. 

The DNAs of startups are different from small businesses. Sure, we know some lump them together. But we do not. In Nigeria, while there could be millions of small businesses, we do not think the nation has more than 5,000 startups.

A startup is a company which grows very fast and could be in any sector and could be young or old. It does not have to be a tech business. And it does not need to have raised funds. But it MUST be growing and GROWING. Since we cannot ask you to drop out, we only ask you to finish and then apply!

A startup is a company designed to grow fast. Being newly founded does not in itself make a company a startup. Nor is it necessary for a startup to work on technology, or take venture funding, or have some sort of “exit.” The only essential thing is growth. Everything else we associate with startups follows from growth.

If you want to start one it’s important to understand that. Startups are so hard that you can’t be pointed off to the side and hope to succeed. You have to know that growth is what you’re after. The good news is, if you get growth, everything else tends to fall into place. Which means you can use growth like a compass to make almost every decision you face.

[   ]

How fast does a company have to grow to be considered a startup? There’s no precise answer to that. “Startup” is a pole, not a threshold. Starting one is at first no more than a declaration of one’s ambitions. You’re committing not just to starting a company, but to starting a fast growing one, and you’re thus committing to search for one of the rare ideas of that type. But at first you have no more than commitment. Starting a startup is like being an actor in that respect. “Actor” too is a pole rather than a threshold. At the beginning of his career, an actor is a waiter who goes to auditions. Getting work makes him a successful actor, but he doesn’t only become an actor when he’s successful.

So the real question is not what growth rate makes a company a startup, but what growth rate successful startups tend to have. For founders that’s more than a theoretical question, because it’s equivalent to asking if they’re on the right path.

Comment on Feed

Comment: Sir. Ndubuisi, this post made your previous post clearer.

Initially many thought you do not invest in founders except they are graduates. But now it’s clearer. School is a distraction for a startup founder.

But nonetheless, I do not agree when you insinuate that “education is the liberation of the mind” in context of a university.

Does it mean that a person who never enrolled in a university but goes through a Mini-MBA from tekedia isn’t as or more advantaged than one who went to school?

Education is golden. University is one place to be educated. There are several more places to be educated and still be advantaged as or even more than an Undergraduate.

My Response: I wrote “education is the liberation of the mind” . I did not write “university education” is the liberation of the mind. But in my thesis, I was referring to undergrads and not innovators in Aba, Kano and NYC who might not have entered a university. Liberation of the mind does not exclusively mean going to a university; university is just one aspect of that process.

0

The value of digital assets in the cryptocurrency market is soaring, leading to a surge in investor interest. In light of this trend, it is crucial to examine two blockchain firms, namely VeChain and Chainlink, and the recently emerging but robust meme coin, Big Eyes Coin.

Conducting thorough research on blockchain companies is crucial to safeguarding your investments. VeChain’s recent release of its Whitepaper 3.0 and the continued accumulation of its native token, LINK, by whales has put Chainlink in the spotlight. This article presents a comparative analysis of VeChain Whitepaper 3.0 and Chainlink Whales to showcase why these blockchain technologies are crucial for the cryptocurrency market, while also exploring the growing power of meme coins with Big Eyes Coin. Investors should take note of these insights to make informed investment decisions.

VeChain is a blockchain technology that aims to improve supply chain management and streamline business processes. In its newly released Whitepaper 3.0, VeChain has introduced various updates and innovations that make the platform more appealing to investors. One of the most significant updates is the introduction of VeChain NFTs, which enable businesses to verify and track the authenticity of their products through the blockchain. Additionally, the Whitepaper highlights the VeCarbon initiative, which leverages blockchain technology to track carbon footprints and reduce carbon emissions. The document also showcases VeChain’s collaborations with various partners, including a recent partnership with the Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC). The platform continues to prioritize enhancing supply chain efficiency. VeChain’s proof of authority consensus paradigm utilizes a few validating nodes that are granted authority based on the number of VET tokens they deposit, making it a crucial tool for preventing counterfeiting, bootlegging, and other forms of illegal duplication.

Chainlink is a decentralized Oracle network that links smart contracts to external data sources, allowing for the secure, automated, and trustless execution of transactions. A noteworthy development for Chainlink is the ongoing accumulation of LINK by whales, which refers to entities holding significant amounts of tokens. LINK accumulation suggests a high level of confidence in the platform and its growth potential. Chainlink’s technology is increasingly being utilized by various industries, such as finance, insurance, and gaming, to provide secure data inputs and outputs.

VeChain and Chainlink are two distinct blockchain technologies, but they possess several similarities that make them essential for the cryptocurrency market. Both platforms have forged partnerships with prominent companies across various industries. VeChain’s partnerships include collaborations with DNV, PwC, and BMW, while Chainlink has partnered with Swift, Google, and Oracle, among others. These collaborations are crucial as they facilitate the adoption of blockchain technology by traditional businesses and institutions.
