ChatGPT Price Prediction: CFX and COLT to Outperform BTC – Analytics Insight

June 3, 2023

Coming every Saturday, Hodler’s Digest will help you track every single important news story that happened this week. The best (and worst) quotes, adoption and regulation highlights, leading coins, predictions and much more — a week on Cointelegraph in one link.

Top Stories This Week

Breaking: Terra blockchain officially halted following LUNA price collapse

This week, news about the Terra ecosystem dominated the headlines after algorithmic stablecoin TerraUSD (UST) lost its peg to the U.S. dollar — and continued to crash. 

At its lowest point during the week, UST fell to around $0.13, according to CoinMarketCap. The meltdown also affected LUNA due to its symbiotic relationship with its sister asset. After reaching a high of $120 in early April, LUNA’s value plummeted this week to basically zero. 

Do Kwon, CEO of Terraform Labs, looked to impliment certain measures to right the sinking ship, as per Cointelegraph’s reporting on Thursday. Subsequent reporting showed that the Terra blockchain halted operations briefly after LUNA’s hyperinflation significantly reduced the cost of a governance attack on the network.

 

 

 

Leaked report: South Korea to establish crypto framework by 2024

South Korea plans to govern crypto assets with a new set of laws intended to come into play by 2024, according to a leaked government document. Although verified as valid, the leaked document is not a finalized plan. 

Led by the administration of President Yoon Suk-yeol, the new crypto regulations pertain to several categories, including NFTs.

 

Meta will test digital collectibles on Instagram starting this week

Earlier this week, Meta said it intends to experiment with NFTs on Instagram by allowing digital collectibles to be used as profile pictures. The decision came directly from CEO Mark Zuckerberg. 

Adding NFTs to Instagram serves as a precursor to bringing digital collectibles to Facebook and other Meta entities, Zuckerberg said. Other social media platforms, such as Twitter, have already moved toward offering NFTs as profile pictures.

 

 

 

Robinhood shares spike 30% after Sam Bankman-Fried buys $650M stake

Since March of this year, FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried has been buying shares of popular trading app Robinhood, concluding his purchasing this past week. In total, Bankman-Fried picked up $648 million in Robinhood stock, equating to a 7.6% company stake. The FTX CEO’s average price per share was $11.52. 

A United States regulatory filing recently revealed the purchase. Robinhood shares increased more than 30% immediately after the news became public.

 

ECB lays out ‘anonymous’ digital euro as public opposes ‘slavecoins’

The topic of central bank digital currencies (CBDCs) has become increasingly common. A recent working paper from the European Central Bank gave the latest update on where the monetary authority stands on the matter. According to the central bank, a CBDC with anonymity features could streamline payments while also enabling merchants to prevent banks from extracting information about their payment flows. 

Meanwhile, Europeans have apparently come out against CBDCs. “Slavecoin” is the term some online commentators have used to describe CBDCs. The backlash has steadily flowed in following the April 5 launch of a digital euro consultation which, in part, allows the public to weigh in on the issue via online comments.

 

 

 

 

 

Winners and Losers

 

At the end of the week, Bitcoin (BTC) is at $29,994, Ether (ETH) at $2,067 and XRP at $0.42. The total market cap is at $1.28 trillion, according to CoinMarketCap.

Among the biggest 100 cryptocurrencies, there were only two altcoin gainers of the week: Maker (MKR) at 1.22% and Fei USD (FEI) at 0.27%. 

The top three altcoin losers of the week are Terra (LUNA) at -100%, TerraUSD (UST) at -81.61%, and Fantom (FTM) at -50.89%.

Most Memorable Quotations

 

“When it comes to mass adoption, it’s really about comparing what blockchain technology can bring to users through existing solutions.”

Ming Duan, chief operating officer and co-founder of Umee

 

“In most places in the free world and in democracies, crypto is going to eventually be regulated and legal. […] And the way that we push the conversation forward is by taking action.”

Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase

 

“If you want to do an algorithmic stablecoin, for example, it has to be 300% backed by solid assets, solid crypto assets — not 105%, or 110%, or even less. […] That does not make sense.”

Paolo Ardoino, chief technology officer at Bitfinex and Tether

 

“Everybody who has been here for less than 18 months is probably shocked, but for us who have been here since 2016, 2017, it’s part of the game. Bitcoin is not going away, Ethereum is not going away because of LUNA or because of UST. Everything is business as usual.”

Marcel Pechman, crypto analyst and Cointelegraph contributor

 

“The same rules that apply to investments in the physical world continue to apply to investments in virtual worlds.”

Five U.S. state regulatory bodies 

 

“If platforms — whether in the decentralized or centralized finance space — offer security-based swaps, they are implicated by the securities laws and must work within our securities regime.”

Gary Gensler, chair of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC)

 

Prediction of the Week 

 

Bitcoin macro bottom ‘not in yet’ warns analyst as BTC price holds $30K

Bitcoin is coming off a highly volatile week, briefly falling below $27,000 at one point, according to Cointelegraph’s BTC price index. Although the asset subsequently rallied above $30,000, BTC may not be out of the woods yet in terms of a larger scale macro bottom.

In presenting his case, Twitter user Material Indicators noted: “IMO, the macro bottom is not in yet.”

Other market evaluations included one from former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes, who said in a May 12 blog post: “The crypto capital markets must be allowed time to heal after the bloodletting concludes.” He continued with other comments, noting certain price levels he is watching for BTC and ETH.

 

 

FUD of the Week 

Galaxy Digital reports $112M Q1 loss, citing crypto price volatility

Crypto investment firm Galaxy Digital Holdings recently published its results for Q1 2022. The firm posted a net comprehensive loss of approximately $112 million during the quarter, a considerable change of pace from its roughly $858 million profits during Q1 2021. The company’s results mirror the significant shift in market sentiment for crypto assets over the past 12 months.

 

‘Mortified’ crypto trader gets 42 months for fraud, claiming he was a total gun

A New York court dealt Jeremy Spence, known under the pseudonym “Coin Signals,” a 42-month jail sentence for running a Ponzi scheme. The scheme involved making false assertions about his crypto-trading profits, taking money from investors and then paying out older investors with money from newer ones. The court ruling also included other terms of the sentence.

 

Breaking: Binance suspends LUNA and UST trading amid issues on Terra blockchain

Amid the turmoil surrounding LUNA and UST, Binance decided to suspend spot trading for the UST/BUSD and LUNA/BUSD trading pairs. UST and LUNA withdrawals were temporarily halted by Binance earlier in the week. Binance Futures has also adjusted certain LUNA-related trading features.
