Let me tell you what all had happened!
Sam Bankman Fried is the founder of FTX the very famous crypto exchange๐ฐ
FTX collapsed in early November 2022 because of potential leverage concerns involving FTX affiliated trading firm Alameda Research. Yaha se gadbad chalu ๐๐
They faced a liquidity crisis and searched for bailout funds. CZ bhai of Binance considered buying portions of the company but quickly backed out lol ๐๐
And long story short, they got bankrupt and Sam bro ke lagg gyeโ ๏ธ he got arrested by Bahamian authorities and extradited to the U.S in Decemberโ 22.
Since then we have had news up and down about his court trials. But here we have some big news!โ ๏ธ๐ข
He has been found guilty of two counts of wire fraud conspiracy, two counts of wire fraud, and one count of conspiracy to commit money launderingโ ๏ธ๐ฐ๐ฅฒ
Each of these charges carries a maximum sentence of 20 years ๐ญ๐ญin prison. He has also been convicted of conspiracy to commit commodities fraud ๐and conspiracy to commit securities fraudโ๏ธ, which each carry a maximum sentence of five years๐ฑ๐ป
He is being accused of using some of the money to purchase real estate, make political donations, and finance charitable projects unrelated to FTX's core business of facilitating digital currency trading๐ค๐ค
So we are waiting for the next hearing when he finally (hopefully) gets arrested โ ๏ธ๐ข
๐Abu Dhabi launches new rules๐
Abu Dhabi๐ง has introduced a comprehensive framework aimed at regulating decentralized autonomous organizations (DAOs)๐, decentralized finance (DeFi)๐ฐ, and Web3 ๐ฏcompanies
The Registration Authority (RA) of Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) has declared the implementation of the Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) Foundations Regulations 2023โ ๏ธ๐
This regulatory initiative is designed to accommodate the unique requirements of the blockchain industry, enabling organizations to operate and issue tokens within a regulated framework๐ก๐
The framework unveiled by Abu Dhabi is intentionally designed to cater to a diverse array of entities within the digital asset landscape.๐ค๐ค๐ญ๐ญ๐ญ
It is equally applicable to Blockchain Foundations, Web3 entities๐ง , DAOsโ๏ธ, and traditional Foundations looking to enhance their operations through Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT)โ ๏ธ๐
In conclusion, Abu Dhabiโs๐ฏ proactive approach in implementing the DLT Foundations Regulations 2023 highlights the regionโs growing prominence as a hub for digital asset innovation and development!๐ซ๐ฏ
๐๐ปWhy can only 21 Million Bitcoins ever exist?๐๐ป
The 21 million Bitcoin supply limit is a deliberate ๐กdesign choice to create a decentralized๐ and secure currency๐ฐ! Let's understand why-
This scarcity is a fundamental feature that differentiates Bitcoin from traditional fiat currencies, making it a unique and valuable asset in the world of finance. ๐๐ฐ๐
1. Decentralization: ๐The limited supply of 21 million ensures that no single entity, such as a central bank, can manipulate the currency's value by creating more of it. ๐ โโ๏ธ๐ฐ๐ก
2. Halving Events: โ๏ธ The supply of Bitcoin is controlled through a process called "halving." Approximately every four years (or after every 210,000 blocks), the reward that miners receive for adding new blocks to the blockchain is cut in half.This reduction continues until it reaches zero. โฌ๏ธโฌ๏ธโฌ๏ธ๐ฐ
3. Scarce Resource: ๐ Bitcoin's scarcity is comparable to precious metals like gold. Just as there is a limited amount of gold on Earth, there will only ever be 21 million Bitcoins in existence. This scarcity gives Bitcoin value, as people perceive it as a digital store of value. ๐๐ช
4. Deflationary Nature: ๐ Limited supply and increasing demand can result in defflation, which means that the value of each Bitcoin can increase over time. This encourages savings and long-term investment in the cryptocurrency. ๐ฐ๐๐
5. Satoshi's Vision: ๐ค Bitcoin's creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, designed it with a limited supply to align with the idea of a digital gold โ a form of digital currency that retains its value over time. ๐ค๐ก๐ช
6. Decimals: ๐งฎ Bitcoin is divisible into smaller units, known as Satoshis, with one Bitcoin equal to 100 million Satoshis. This divisibility ensures that even with a limited supply, Bitcoin can be used for everyday transactions. ๐ธ๐ฏ๐ข
7. Economic Model: ๐ Bitcoin's economic model of scarcity and mining rewards is a key part of its design, which ensures the network's stability and longevity. ๐ผ๐ฐ๐
