LayerZero Crosses This Significant Milestone, But Is An Airdrop Coming?

Cross-Chain communication protocol platform LayerZero has crossed 50 million cross-chain messages, as revealed by the platform on Tuesday, July 25. This significant milestone proves the massive trading activity and cross-chain token swaps that happen across several chains daily. LayerZero’s Impressive Growth The ‘50-million cross-chain messages’ is undoubtedly a testament to how much LayerZero has achieved in the space. Due to the project’s disruptive vision, it has received enormous backing from some of the ecosystem’s biggest Venture Capitalists (VC).  Related Reading: Fundstrat Predicts Bitcoin Will Reach $180,000 In 2024, But What’s The Catalyst? Three months ago, LayerZero raised $120 million from prominent backers like auction company Christie’s, renowned VC firms Sequoia Capital and Andreessen Horowitz, Capital market company Samsung Next, OpenSea Ventures, and Circle Ventures. What is more impressive is that LayerZero was valued at $3 billion during this Series B funding round, almost three times its $135 million valuation during the funding round held back in 2022.  This remarkable feat has also come during the lingering crypto bear market when many have felt that the outlook in the industry will be negative. That is why it is easy to share the sentiments of the CEO of LayerZero Labs when he stated: LayerZero is to blockchains what the internet was to computing clusters. LayerZero allows chains not only to build bridges (to transfer assets/value between them) but send and execute arbitrary data just like a packet on the internet. What this means is that you can now build applications that are orders of magnitude more complex than existing applications and do so with a completely seamless experience between chains. Blockchain interoperability remains the foremost issue in the Web3 space. Furthermore, this has greatly hindered some from venturing into the space, and it is well-known that if crypto is to enjoy mainstream adoption, this issue needs to be dealt with. That is why interoperability protocols like LayerZero are key in the blockchain ecosystem.  It is common knowledge that the interoperability issue stems from how blockchains have different protocols and standards that make them incompatible. However, platforms like LayerZero bridge this gap by facilitating seamless and direct communication between different blockchain networks, making it easy for users on networks like Ethereum, Aptos, Solana, and SUI to move their digital assets across these chains. “Wen Airdrop?” The question of if LayerZero will carry out an airdrop has been on the lips of many members of the LayerZero community. Although the team has been tight-lipped over whether or not there will indeed be an airdrop to users, the signs are becoming more glaring that one may, in fact, be on the horizon. Related Reading: Worldcoin Founder’s Refusal To Answer Token Distribution Question Sparks Controversy With so much success in the last year and so much money raised, it is possible that LayerZero is already working on its native token. If the platform was looking to reward the users who have supported it all this time, then an airdrop would be the most likely avenue to do so. However, with no talk of even a token launch, it is hard to determine if LayerZero will conduct an airdrop.

Fireblocks hits SaaS unicorn milestone with $100 million annual recurring revenues

Fireblocks hits SaaS unicorn milestone with $100 million annual recurring revenues

In one major blockchain news this Monday, we report on Fireblocks, a fast-growing company whose technological platform offers tools and other innovative products for managing, storing and transferring cryptocurrencies.

Basically, the company has announced that its annual recurring revenue (ARR) for 2022 had once again surpassed the $100 million mark.

According to the company, this is a milestone that puts it among a small group of software-as-a-service (SaaS) startups to become a “Centaur.” In fintech company parlance, companies that fall into this category are unicorns – with $1 billion or more in valuation.

Fireblocks is a ‘SaaS unicorn’

Fireblocks is a multi-billion startup focused on helping blockchain and crypto platforms and its milestone comes just after four years of operations.  

As noted in the press release, the startup has joined companies such as Slack and Twilio in “a rare subset of SaaS unicorns” to reach the mark in under five years.

Fireblocks’ growth comes amid crypto’s continued dalliance with a bear market that impacted several projects in the industry. But while crypto prices of major coins have dithered below previous bull cycle lows and are bouncing near crucial support, the consolidation has been tempered with significant broader industry growth.

Michael Shaulov, the co-founder and CEO of Fireblocks noted this in a statement, adding:

“We saw an unprecedented volume of new market entrants, including fintechs, Web3 startups, banks, and PSPs. Because of Fireblocks’ MPC custody and treasury management technology, which has become one of the most fundamental pieces of infrastructure for the digital asset ecosystem, we have seen first-hand the innovation happening among fintechs, Web3 start-ups, banks, and PSPs who are diligently bringing new digital asset products to market.”

The company targets further growth in the sector, providing secure and scalable products to meet market demand and boost the decentralised economy.

Other than its increased use in the digital assets space, Fireblocks’ software technology is being deployed by some of the world’s leading institutions and startups to protect customers.

Recently, the company has struck deals with players such as BNP Paribas (covered here), Wirex, Six Digital Exchange, and Checkout.com among others who use its tools to secure investor funds and to streamline daily operations.

This article on Invezz in July highlighted Fireblocks’ collaborative effort with Polygon, while in August this year, we reported it had added NFT and DeFi support for Solana.

Indeed, over 1,500 financial institutions have used Fireblocks’ suite of products to securely transfer more than $3 trillion worth of digital assets.

Crypto.com hits new milestone with SOC 2 Type II compliance

Crypto.com, a cryptocurrency exchange with over 50 million users and accessible across 90 countries, has added to its growing reputation as one of the world’s leading crypto platforms with the successful completion of an independent compliance audit.

The audit reaffirms Crypto.com’s commitment to security and highest standards of data security.

Crypto.com scores another compliance milestone

On 23 August, the Singapore-based firm announced it had completed the Service Organization Control (SOC) 2 Type II Compliance audit, carried out by Big Four auditor Deloitte. 

Being SOC 2 Type II certified confirms Crypto.com as not just a company that’s committed to adhering to highest information security practices, but also one that already complies with the policies, procedures, and operations set out in the AICPA Trust Services Criteria in Security, Confidentiality, Processing Integrity, and Privacy. 

According to Crypto.com, the audit is a key milestone and an example of the company’s dedication to regulatory procedures, a step in the right direction.

Kris Marszalek, CEO of Crypto.com commented:

“I am extremely proud of our commitment to compliance, and this latest achievement is a testament to our security, privacy, and regulatory compliance capabilities which have been cornerstones of our business since day one.”

Crypto.com has recently scored several regulatory and registration milestones across the globe, including in South Korea, Cyprus, the Cayman Islands and from the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). The company thus sees further time investment in pursuing the regulatory goal as one that will help it build the most trusted platform.

Jason Lau, Crypto.com’s Chief Information Security Officer noted:

“With the ever-evolving threat landscape, we will continue to ensure we maintain the highest level of security and data privacy so our customers can feel confident and trust our products. SOC 2 is an internationally respected security assessment criteria, and in line with highly regulated industries like the financial sector.”

pSTAKE’s liquid-staking solution on BNB chain a major milestone for Binance

pSTAKE’s liquid-staking solution on BNB chain a major milestone for Binance

According to a recent announcement by Persistence, pSTAKE has launched a liquid-staking solution called stkBNB on the BNB Chain.

In essence, the liquid staking concept allows investors to stake digital assets while retaining the tradable variant of the staked asset.

In this case, the stkBNB will allow investors to stake any non-zero amount of BNB (BNB/USD). It will therefore serve as a major boost for the BNB ecosystem by encouraging and allowing interested users to take part in various DeFi activities using their liquid-staked BNB besides the staking rewards.

How the stkBNB functions

Once an investor stakes any non-zero BNB amount, the user will be issued with stkBNB coin instantly through an exchange rate framework that is similar to the model currently used by Compound’s cToken.

 The value of the issued stkBNB keeps growing as staking rewards automatically accrue.

Users also have the option of auto-compounding their assets to generate the highest yields possible.

When the investor feels it is time to unstake the staked BNB, pSTAKE automatically burns the issued stkBNB and issues an equivalent amount of BNB into the user’s crypto wallet. The unstaked BNB can then be withdrawn after a period of 15 days once the validators safely undelegate the funds.

It is important to note that the staking rewards accrual stops immediately after the unstaking action is completed.

pSTAKE’s reward distribution setup

The staking rewards within the BNB ecosystem come from the transaction fees paid by the BNB Chain users. As a result, the reward change depending on the network’s activity.

According to a post by pSTAKE, the stkBNB protocol works as follows:

  • All the earned rewards are distributed to BNB holders who stake their assets with pSTAKE.
  • A user’s staking reward automatically compounds at the end of every epoch.

This distribution model will remain active for the first 90 days after the launch of the mainnet after which fee distribution is subject to amendments through community consensus through a governance vote.

At the moment (initial bootstrapping phase) fees are waived and are subject to revision after three months through a governance vote.

Industry leaders tasked with verifying stkBNB’s smart contracts

According to pSTAKE, every smart contract operating on the stkBNB platform is audited by industry leaders including Halborn and PeckShield.

pSTAKE is also working closely with Certora to validate the rules that have been hard-coded into stkBNB smart contracts. It has also integrated with Forta Network for bot detection to monitor and identify threats and therefore enables fast response time in case of key issues. Forta also facilitates on-chain tracking of smart contracts.

In addition, pSTAKE has also partnered with Immunefi and has launched a $300K bug bounty campaign.

pSTAKE’s BNB liquid staking solution benefits
  • pSTAKE’s aforementioned offering provides users with instant liquidity (primarily in the form of stkBNB) on their staked digital assets.
  • Staked assets are balanced and spread across many high-performing validators to maximize user returns.
  • The accrued rewards are auto-compoundable, which results in the highest yield possible.
  • pSTAKE offers a high degree of operational flexibility for its clients, allowing them to bypass the traditional 7-day un-bonding period when unstaking BNB.
  • The new level of liquidity for the BNB chain by bringing staked assets into the DeFi ecosystem can help spur dApp utilization.
Conclusion

Since its launch of the pSTAKE liquid staking platform, Persistence’s top priority has been to keep adding more DeFi use cases for the stkBNB to expose stakeholders to more benefits besides the staking rewards.

stkBNB is expected to foster the next phase of growth for the BNB Chain by bringing staked BNB into the BNB DeFi ecosystem while giving users the chance of participating in securing Binance’s native blockchain network.

Cardano Records Over 20 Million Transactions Ahead of DEX Launches

The Cardano network remains one of the most stable blockchains in the crypto space. Founded in 2017, the network remains the largest proof of stake network in the industry. It holds the title for the proof of stake network with the highest amount of coins staked, only recently conceding to Solana to become the smart contracts platform with the second-largest amount of coins staked. Nevertheless, Cardano remains a force to be reckoned with and its latest achievement has shown that. Network activity has picked up on the network since the launch of smart contracts capability. Now, a little over two months after, the network has marked its 20 millionth transaction after only four years in operation. Related Reading | Cardano Active Addresses Shoots To New Highs Amid Downtrend Cardano Remains At The Top The project has done some impressive things in its four years of operation, one of which is barely experiencing any downtime. Most projects in the market have experienced downtime at some point. Most notably the Solana network blackout that saw the network go dark for about 24 hours. Cardano itself has experienced downtime which occurred in April but it lasted for only an hour and was over so quickly that a good portion of the community does not know this happened. Despite the lack of decentralized exchanges (DEXes) on the blockchain, it has managed to ramp up more activity than leading smart contracts platform Ethereum. Users can mint NFTs on Cardano, which has contributed greatly to this increased network activity. However, given that Ethereum has DEXes and NFT capability, this is an incredible feat for Cardano. ADA begins recovery trend | Source: ADAUSD on TradingView.com With this, Cardano has proven that it will be one of the leading DeFi platforms once decentralized finance takes off properly on the platform. ADALend, credited as the first lending protocol on the platform, is building its decentralized lending protocol on Cardano, which has been positively received by the community so far. How ADA Is Doing In The Market Cardano’s native token ADA has not had the best of weeks in the market recently. The digital asset had been the victim of major FUD that has seen its price sink to three-month lows. This has mostly been the result of crypto exchange eToro announcing that it would be limiting Cardano (ADA) capabilities for U.S. users on the platform starting in December. Related Reading | Cardano Ambassador Addresses FUD Surrounding The Project The token had taken a big hit following this, dropping down to the $1.4 range before picking up steam again. Despite the recovery, the coin continues to trade at about $50% less than its all-time high above $3 in September. Dropping prices have however not affected the amount of tokens being staked on the network. Cardano still maintains over 70% of its total supply staked by holders, one of the largest in the space.
