Fintech in the Front, DeFi in the Back—Crypto's Quiet Revolution Is Underway

PayPal’s stablecoin rollout highlights a revived trend in the crypto industry. It’s one that captured Wall Street’s imagination since 2016, promising speedy settlement times and lower backroom overhead. The so-called blockchain revolution: newer, cheaper rails for the financial system. That line of argument stopped making headlines amid a long and cold crypto winter followed by an uptick in meme coins, yield farming, and the sector’s equally powerful memetic force of getting rich quickly.

What Will Happen to Ethereum Miners After ETH 2.0?

Ethereum, like Bitcoin, currently uses an energy-intensive process called “mining” to create and distribute new cryptocurrency.

The Bitcoin blockchain was designed around the principle of controlled supply, which means only a fixed number of newly minted Bitcoin can be mined each year until a total of 21 million coins have been minted. Once all 21 million BTC have been mined, the network will largely operate the same as it does now, but with one crucial difference for...

Investors are increasingly forming Decentralized Autonomous Organizations (DAOs) to pool their funds and gain exposure to the priciest NFTs through fractionalization.

'We Can DAO It': How a New Wave of CypherPunks Is Disrupting Venture Capital

A group of crypto art collectors made global headlines last month by placing a $525,000 winning bid for a promotional video about the crypto platform Uniswap created by the fast-rising digital artist Pplpleasr. The artwork came in the form of the art-meets-tech medium du jour, the NFT, and the funds from the winning bid went to charity.  But while the purchase garnered plenty of publicity, few media outlets mentioned the novel social arrangement that made it possible: a decentralized autonomous...
