The Big Eyes Coin Presale Hits $3.3 Million As Cardano and BNB Surge

0

The crypto market has experienced numerous crashes in 2022, leading many crypto enthusiasts to cautiously assemble their portfolios for Q4. During this financial quarter, some cryptocurrencies are performing well and deserve your attention. Two of which are Cardano (ADA) and BNB (BNB).

Cardano and BNB are constantly improving their technology, helping them cement their place at the top of the crypto ladder. However, a new cryptocurrency is grabbing the headlines in Q4. Big Eyes Coin has seen a dazzling presale thus far, hitting $3.3 million in stage three. Can it join Cardano and BNB at the top? Let’s find out!

Sustainability In Cryptocurrency – Big Eyes Coin

Big Eyes Coin has made it an express goal to help restore a crucial part of our ecosystem, the oceans. A charity wallet holding 5% of BIG tokens will make regular donations to ocean conservation sanctuaries to combat ocean issues and threats. Additionally, 1% of fees from NFT purchases will go straight to the charity wallet.

Cryptocurrencies often forget that their communities are what make them successful. Big Eyes Coin never will. The innovative platform promises to prioritise its community, hosting regular giveaways of tokens, NFTs, and other rewards! The most recent competition involves a 250,000 giveaway to ten lucky BIG token holders.

As mentioned above, Big Eyes Coin will host NFT collections on its platform. NFT events will occur with the seasons, giving you many opportunities to acquire the cute Anime cat for your NFT portfolio. Big Eyes Coin will push for an NFT collection in the top ten projects, which could ultimately increase its popularity in the crypto market.

The Cardano Vasil Hard Fork

Cardano was on the receiving end of some good news this week. Its Vasil hard fork upgrade was a success and helped it enhance the platform’s transaction throughput speeds, security, and dApp development capacity!

The upgrade experienced several delays and setbacks, yet it finally became a reality on the 27th of September. Cardano is known for its smart contract capabilities, and the Vasil hard fork will enhance them. Additionally, due to faster transaction throughput speeds, Cardano will improve its scalability, potentially rivalling Ethereum (ETH) in the future.

Cardano has experienced an increase in value in the past 24 hours. At the time of writing, Cardano has increased by 3.15%, showcasing the positive impact the Cardano Vasil hard fork had on the platform.

BNB – Committed To Crypto Education

Since the platform’s inception in 2017, BNB has been committed to educating the crypto community for free. Users can access an array of educational resources in twenty different languages at different levels of difficulty.

Furthermore, BNB is looking to tackle the gender disparity in crypto. That is why they hosted a blockchain for women Bootcamp in collaboration with Utiva. The Bootcamp saw three hundred women participate in an eight-week course, expanding their knowledge of the blockchain industry.

Like Cardano, BNB has surged in value recently. Over the past seven days, BNB has increased its market capitalisation by 5.15% at the time of writing. The increase in value could be attributed to BNB’s commitment to educating the crypto community and the array of services it offers on its platform.

Final Thoughts

It is no surprise that Cardano and BNB have surged in value due to their groundbreaking technology. Their time at the top of the crypto market will not end any time soon as they continue to increase their value.

Additionally, Big Eyes Coin has begun its climb up the crypto ladder. It offers its users NFTs, a chance to donate to charity, and regular giveaways to its community. Big Eyes Coin has reached $3.3 million raised in its presale thus far, showing that it holds a promising future.

Here’s Why You Should Add Solana, Fantom, and Big Eyes To Your 2022 Crypto Watchlist

0

The cryptocurrency market is a fascinating ecosystem because it has thousands of crypto tokens. This plethora of investment alternatives makes the cryptocurrency market attractive to several traders. The coin market’s volatile nature means it’s difficult to predict what will happen next in this ecosystem. However, it’s common knowledge that high-potential coins do well during a bull market. But the biggest challenge is identifying these high-potential crypto tokens. That’s where we come in.

We’ve done all the heavy lifting and have come up with a list of coins that should be on the watchlist of any well-meaning trader. Let’s get started!

Solana (SOL) The Ethereum Killer

If you’ve not heard about Solana, you’re likely not a crypto enthusiast. Solana is an altcoin that has gained a massive reputation as an “Ethereum killer”. And that’s what many expect from this crypto coin when they purchase it. While replacing Ethereum is no small feat, Solana’s features gave traders hope for great things. Solana can do the same thing you’d expect from Ethereum, but with the capacity to do it faster and at a cheaper cost. It has a proof-of-stake consensus that gives it more flexibility. The decentralized protocol will reward you with SOL tokens when you stake on Solana.

Solana has already managed to do well for itself in the coin market. But the 2022 crypto crash has taken its price back to low levels. Many experts have anticipated that Solana is more than a cryptocurrency you can easily knock down. Even with the Ethereum merge that’s recently occurred, Solana still has strong followership and will continue to grow to new heights. Aside from being used to create decentralized applications, Solana has also built a strong presence in the NFT space. This decentralized protocol is currently one of the top choices for NFT creators and developers of NFT marketplaces.

Fantom (FTM) Similar to Solana

In many ways, Fantom is similar to Solana. They are tagged as Ethereum killers and run on a proof-of-stake consensus. What’s more? This decentralized protocol is also an open-source system. Therefore, developers can copy its code and use it to create something similar.

When Fantom was released in 2019, there was hope that it could solve the blockchain trilemma. It’s safe to say that Fantom has maintained an upward trajectory since its release – until the recent crypto crash. FTM is the token that users will spend to interact with this innovative decentralized protocol.

Big Eyes (BIG) The New Meme Coin

Not every day do you come across a meme coin with the potential to grow your portfolio and earn you plenty of money. Big Eyes is one of those few meme coins in this category. There are many reasons why anyone would want to purchase Big Eyes. To start with, Big Eyes is an ideal alternative for crypto traders who were unable to join the Tamadoge bandwagon. Yes, Tamadoge was a play-to-earn cryptocurrency with plenty of potential to grow and a mission to ensure that all its users were earners. But it’s already been launched and those left out now have to watch it grow.

Big Eyes is the meme coin currently getting all the attention and hype. Users are encouraged to join stage 2 of the Big Eyes presale before it gets sold out. When you purchase this coin in its presale, you join an early community of members that will determine the future of this coin. As a community-driven token, users will be allowed to contribute to future decisions and developments on the token. What’s more? The coin price will rise by 25% after stage 2 of the presale ends.

Big Eyes has tagged itself as a cryptocurrency solely interested in giving back to the community of users. Like Solana, Big Eyes will be used in the creation of NFTs. You shouldn’t be surprised to see some NFT marketplaces hosted on Big Eyes soon.

NNPC Limited Acquires OVH Energy

2

The Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) has acquired downstream assets of OVH Energy, the company behind the Oando retail brand in Nigeria.

The acquisition was announced on Saturday in Abuja during the unveiling and rebranding of one of the retail stations of Oando to NNPC.

With the merger, NNPCL now officially controls all Oando retail outlets comprising fuel, and aviation among others across Nigeria.

This strategic acquisition of OVH Energy by NNPC aims to create the leading downstream energy company in Nigeria and West Africa, driven by operational efficiency, best-in-class management, and physical infrastructure while offering premium petroleum products and related services to customers, in line with global standards.

Through this acquisition, NNPC Retail Limited will build on the existing success of OVH and operate model service outlets leveraging OVH’s extensive asset base and commercial capabilities.

The transaction also positions NNPC Retail Limited as the fastest growing commercial energy company in its pursuit to guarantee energy security for Nigeria’s growing population and significantly more growth opportunities for the business.

Speaking at the rebranding ceremony, the Group Chief Executive Officer (GCEO) NNPCL, Mele Kyari said the acquisition of OVH Energy was a strategic move to create the leading downstream energy company in Nigeria and West Africa, driven by operational efficiency, best-in-class management, physical infrastructure while offering premium petroleum products and related services to customers, in line with global standards.

He stated that the acquisition came on the heels of the direction issued by President Muhammadu Buhari, on the need for the company to provide energy security.

In his words, “And that there is no way you can do this except you have the robust systems and processes. You have a network that will work.

“We have struggled with this for many years and we saw the opportunity to latch on to the competencies of the OVH group. We have worked with them. Yes, they were our partners. They are also our customers.

“And ultimately, we knew that this company works. It has a system, it has processes it has a network that has potential to make us achieve our aspirations to be a global company of choice.”

Mr. Kyari also noted that the merger is a vehicle to ensure that the Company delivers on its energy transition goals.

“We will use this vehicle to deliver LPG into the markets, CNG into the market, and also very poor members of our communities who are now relying on biomass to cook. 70% of our people don’t have access to clean cooking fuel,” he added.

Nigerian Legal System Must Update Its Rules Forbidding Solicitation of Clients

0

Comment: “The ethical rules governing Legal practice forbid open advertisements…” (in Nigeria)

My Response: “The ethical rules governing Legal practice forbid open advertisements ” – American system does that all the time. They advertise everywhere – TVs, billboards, radios, etc. Does it mean it is not ethical? What is wrong advertising for the “wronged” to come out to get help. I do not get the “ethical issue” here. “I am a lawyer, I sue companies which make bad medical equipment. If you have been a victim of ABC product, call me. I will get help for you”. What is unethical about this?

Emmanuel Ifeanyi Ogbuka, Esq, can you help? I do think that the Nigerian legal system must allow lawyers/law firms to advertise for class action and recruit clients so that we can put pressure on the many issues in the nation. In America, everyone fears trial lawyers but those trial lawyers will not work without the ability to use Facebook, TVs, etc to recruit victims which strengthen their cases. In Nigeria, I am told that recruitment is illegal and unethical…WHY?

Comment on Feed

Comment 1: The Rules of Professional conduct for legal practitioners in Nigeria does not prohibit advertising.

What the Rules forbid is solicitation of clients. Advertising is allowed so far it in accordance within the bounds provided by the Rules, for example publishing thought leadership materials, appearing on TV or Radio programs etc.

I however, align myself with the School of thought that the Rules of Professional Conduct should be amended to reflect the current realities in the digital ewe now live in to allow lawyers engage in some form of regulated direct advertising.

My Response: “What the Rules forbid is solicitation of clients.” The American legal system allows that. Do you have any professional opinion on how that diminishes the US legal system?

This is the Jumia class action ad and solicitation for client by Rosen law “To join the Jumia class action, go http://www.rosenlegal.com/cases-register-1569.html or call Phillip Kim, Esq. toll-free at 866-767-3653 or email pkim@rosenlegal.com or cases@rosenlegal.com for information on the class action.” I am just curious why this makes law look bad to be illegal in Nigeria.

Comment 1b: Prof. I’d agree that solicitation hasn’t diminished the American system hence the calls for reforms which I am largely in support of.

However, my learned colleagues aren’t doing enough within the allowed bounds of the rules to build effective visibility.

Comment 2: What is written, is written. Drops mic

My Response: Not for the new generation. Many badly written things have been revised. We cannot use an ordinance for alchemy age to run a knowledge age. We sap ourselves of efficiency and productivity. I am not a lawyer but if I have to code a model on the capacity to win a case, the number of litigants will be an input variable.

If 1000 people are suing “ABCD Ltd” for a bad drug which caused harm to their babies over just 1 person, my weighing factor will vary. But the ability to recruit those 1000 should not be abstracted by old ordinance.

Comment 3: Ndubuisi Ekekwe Personally, i believe such rules are outdated for the Digital age we currently live in, but laws don’t care about personal feelings.

The Nigerian Legal System is still a derivative of the English Common Law system, which treated the Legal Profession as a sober closed society with its own ethics, the benchmark being fundamental mutual respect between all lawyers, including those in pupilage.

These ethics, backed up by principles such as “The Cab Rank Rule”(In Pidgin, “All  taxi be the same, if one no gree, enter the next one”), sought to create a set of advertising rules that would maintain equality and fairness among lawyers while maintaining the dignity of the lawyer and the legal profession.

As a result, TV , Billboard, and Radio advertisements were forbidden,as well as things like Trial publicity (granting interviews on cases still being determined by court as a way of self-promotion) and what is called “unfair advertisement”(“ABC lawfirm is the foremost leading Commercial lawfirm in Nigeria” or “Having lengthy delays in Court? Change your lawyer and port to XYZ lawfirm, where you have REAL lawyers!”) , touting, running a legal practice as a limited liability company, newspaper advertisements, champerty & maintenance (lawyers instigating and commencing non-criminal litigation with their own funds) and then ambulance chasing (going round looking for cases and influencing aggrieved parties to sue  through you or hire you with talk like “That man cheated you, you should sue o, i can run it for you!”, a lawyer’s version of clout-chasing).?

All these things greatly reduced allowed advertising to the following:-

  • Sharing your complimentary cards.

  • Public informative interviews, articles on new or relatively unknown aspects of law.

  • Letters of Introduction/Proposal letters.

  • Notifying your NBA branch members of your practice.

  • Referrals.

The rules also totally cut off in-house counsel from private practice (i will be posting an article on Tekedia.com about this).

The ethical rules didn’t foresee online Lawfirms, virtual law offices or online marketing which is usually organic in nature.

The law only allows for newspaper advertisements from non-lawyer groups like people with similar causes in the form of representative suits (class action suits in the US) in matters of Land disputes, Consumer Rights actions, and Labour disputes or Community-based suits in Oil spillage and environmental suits.

Most Common Law jurisdictions have realized the dynamic nature of Legal developments and have amended their rules on advertising for lawyers . This isn’t exactly the case in Nigeria, with the last undisputed amended set of ethical rules for lawyers being carried out in 2007.

So yes, we’re still kinda under strict rules here.?

The Peter Obi’s Campaign Playbook Is Thriving

0

In largely self organizing and aggregating systems, powered by digital platforms, the most important phase is passing the  inflection point for compounding. When you do that, your leverageable factors begin to compound, not necessarily because of new energies you are adding, rather, a natural virtuoso circle which has been formed.

Good things lead to better things and those lead to things which are even more exciting. As a result, most players converge or join that ecosystem because more value would be acquired or captured by being a member of that ecosystem. Over time, that ecosystem wins because of network effects which are now a positive loop of amazing outcomes.

Peter Obi campaign strategy is simple: seed a dynamic online system and create a translation into the physical world. In Nigerian politics, at this point in a campaign, its result is unprecedented.  From Zaria to Lagos, Benin to Enugu, and beyond, provided telecom networks remain, its disintermediation playbook of old political structures is working.

I worked in the Obama campaign and in the summer of 2012, the message was this: define Mitt Romney so that when the core campaign begins, he will have a lot of grounds to cover. Peter Obi has defined himself in this rainforest season in Nigeria. When the harmattan season begins, his positioning could be huge for opponents to dislodge. Aspirational campaigns have always won – and Obi is executing one here. May the best win!
