🤜🤛 Benoit Saint Denis' opponent of the day at UFC Paris 2024, Renato Moicano, is a fervent supporter of Bitcoin.
“Bitcoin is not just an investment, it’s a way of life.”
says the UFC fighter.
He sees #Bitcoin as a defense against "government tyranny" and inflation.
“However, before buying bitcoin, you should analyze your options and not jump into cryptocurrency just because I said so,” Moicano smartly reminds.
After his victory at UFC 300, Moicano publicly requested that his compensation be paid in BTC.

Marinade Finance, one of Solana’s original staking providers, has found itself in hot water with validator operators.
Validators argue that Marinade’s new Stake Auction Marketplace (SAM) harms the staking landscape, allowing malicious actors to thrive at the expense of honest validators.
Beyond losing stake in the network, chagrined validators suggest that, left unchecked, the SAM model is a threat to decentralization and Solana’s scalability moving forward.
Marinade has dismissed these accusations. Countering claims of apathetic negligence, Marinade argues those who criticize the new system do so out of spite.
Is this a case of willful blindness, or are validators looking for a scapegoat to blame for their own shortcomings?
WHY ARE VALIDATORS UPSET?
Once heralded as a powerful new model that would push staking APY to new heights, the SAM has drawn scorn and skepticism from certain validators. Marinade’s SAM enables validators to bid on network stake, with winners securing stake and passing on elevated rewards to delegators.
To win auctions, validators competitively bid on network stake. However, surging demand for stake has driven validators to bid at potentially unsustainable levels. In previous epochs, winning validators needed to yield over 10% APY to win auctions, a rate considered impossible to achieve through native staking alone.
This has led certain operators to speculate on how these validators can afford such high bids. Suggesting that such yield can only be achieved through malicious activities, like sandwich attacks, private mempools, and off-chain deals, some validators argue that Marinade is turning a blind eye to dishonest validators.
Distressed validators have created analytics dashboards to express their frustrations and support their claims. Hanabi’s ‘Marinade Stake Selling’ dashboard highlights that a number of validators flagged for malicious activity have won stake through the SAM.
Responding to accusations levied by third-party dashboard creators, Marinade CEO Michael Repetny argues “Hanabi lacks any methodology, they only copy labels from other Stakewiz dashboard to call it a day.”
Adding further context to the claims of disgruntled operators, Repetny affirms “Hanabi lost 1M SOL from Marinade so it’s understandable he fights the new system.”
Concerned validators have taken to Marinade’s Discord server to air their grievances. Operators have claimed that, through the SAM, over 2.7M SOL has been staked to questionable validators, including sybils and sandwiches. Disgruntled operators even suggested “Marinade wants you to have side deals, ethical or not.”
Additionally, validators have argued that if “most of the mSOL pool is delegated to unethical validators it’s a really bad look for the Solana ecosystem.”
In an exclusive statement with SolanaFloor, Max Kaplan, Head of Engineering at Edgevana, credits Marinade for trying something inventive that “had never been done before”.
However, Kaplan admits that Marinade “went full capitalist… basically, the highest bidder wins. Marinade doesn’t really care if a validator bids for stake and is just gonna lose money on that stake, that’s not their problem… They’re happy to take the money and give that to mSOL holders.”
Experts argue that in current conditions, staking yield over 10% simply isn’t sustainable. Kaplan contends “10% APY is higher than the native staking yield that is paid out on chain. The money has to come from somewhere.”
Without making any accusations, Kaplan theorizes that additional yield could potentially come from a validator’s own “marketing/growth budget” or other sources like “SWQoS / private mempool deals”.
Responding to any accusations, Repetny reinforces Marinade's stance that “SAM provides the best yield on the market for delegators. It is not an active policy maker or opinionated strategy to tweak the network.”

📊 Weekly Outlook Charts Aug 19-23:
#DXY still grinding lower. Nothing much has changed since last week. Global PMI data and subsequent labor market data in UK, France, Germany, USA will have an impact on fed cut expectations and by proxy risk assets including the dollar.
The Annual Jackson Hole meeting is this week as well. Surely there will be some volatility. My best guess is Powell restating the fact that the fight against inflation is almost over and focus on labor market data will be prioritized going forward to initiate the 'soft landing'
https://www.tradingview.co.../
Within 2 weeks since the yen unwinding, we are just a couple percentage points off the highs. The vast volatility has me a bit suspicious. Since we are back above the cloud, confirms bullish continuation, however I suspect this week we might range around 5600 on #SPY due to heavy news flow this week.
https://www.tradingview.co.../
Seems like USOIL is closely following DXY most likely due to concerns of global economic growth.
https://www.tradingview.co.../
#btc still lagging risk assets in tradfi markets. Not bullish again until daily closes above the cloud. Still ranging. Not particularly interested here
https://www.tradingview.co.../
#eth is still struggling to pass resistance. Must be patient

🚨 Highlight of the interview between Elon Musk and Trump:
👉 The interview began with Elon Musk discussing a massive DDoS attack that severely disrupted and delayed the live broadcast, originally scheduled for 8 p.m. Musk said the incident clearly revealed the strong opposition to President Donald Trump's speech:
🔹 "This massive attack shows that there is a lot of opposition to people simply hearing what President Donald Trump has to say."
🔹 Elon Musk then found it fascinating that Thomas Crooks chose the most obvious location for an assassination attempt, although no one anticipated it.
🔹 “If the goal is to assassinate, what would be your favorite place? This building. This building would be number one,” Elon Musk remarked. Donald Trump agreed: “That would have been the most appropriate place.”
👉 Elon Musk then expressed his admiration for Trump's reaction to an assassination attempt. He praised the president's determination not to be defeated by this dramatic event, but to continue to fight with a firm will and a spirit of defiance.
🔹 “Your actions following this assassination attempt have been truly inspiring,” said Elon Musk.
👉 The conversation then turned to politics, with Donald Trump voicing scathing criticism of Vice President Kamala Harris for what he called blatant hypocrisy.
🔹 Donald Trump accused Harris of plagiarizing one of his proposals, that of abolishing taxes on tips, while at the same time supporting increased IRS surveillance of citizens' tips. He denounced this inconsistency by declaring: "These people are FAKES", highlighting the contrast between past actions and current positions.
🔹 Donald Trump recalled that the previous administration had hired 88,000 new IRS agents to closely monitor tips received by waitresses and carts. According to him, this policy was mainly aimed at increasing surveillance and imposing additional burdens on workers in these sectors.
🔹 However, Donald Trump pointed out that Harris had recently adopted his proposal to eliminate tip taxes, which he said illustrated political opportunism. He accused Harris of changing her position in response to political pressure, saying that the move was designed to improve her image and gain political advantage, while remaining at odds with the policies she previously supported.
👉 Elon Musk then expressed grave concern about the future of the United States if current border policies continue.
🔹 "I'm not sure we'll have a country anymore if open borders continue for four years," he warned.
🔹 Donald Trump added that if Kamala Harris were elected, it could lead to the arrival of 50 to 60 million people from various countries around the world.
🔹 “Inflation comes from government overspending because checks never bounce when they are written by the government,” Musk explained. He suggested the creation of a “government efficiency commission” to review and reduce wasteful spending, noting that interest payments on the national debt have now exceeded the defense budget, a situation that demands immediate action.
👉 Finally, Elon Musk addressed the subject of censorship, expressing harsh criticism towards Thierry Breton, the European Commissioner, whom he accuses of having tried to censor his conversation with Donald Trump.
🔹 Elon Musk referred to Breton's warning, who had said: "With a larger audience comes greater responsibility." This statement was perceived by Musk as an attempt to limit freedom of expression, which prompted him to react strongly.
🔹 To express his displeasure, Elon Musk shared a provocative meme addressed to Breton, asking him to “take a big step back and literally fuck off.” This reaction underlined his firm opposition to any form of censorship, especially when it seems to target freedom of expression on public platforms.
👉 Elon Musk then highlighted the way Donald Trump had handled freedom of expression during his first term.

He accused Harris of changing her position in response to political pressure, saying that the move was designed to improve her image and gain political advantage, while remaining at odds with the policies she previously supported.
👉 Elon Musk then expressed grave concern about the future of the United States if current border policies continue.
🔹 "I'm not sure we'll have a country anymore if open borders continue for four years," he warned.
🔹 Donald Trump added that if Kamala Harris were elected, it could lead to the arrival of 50 to 60 million people from various countries around the world.
🔹 “Inflation comes from government overspending because checks never bounce when they are written by the government,” Musk explained. He suggested the creation of a “government efficiency commission” to review and reduce wasteful spending, noting that interest payments on the national debt have now exceeded the defense budget, a situation that demands immediate action.
👉 Finally, Elon Musk addressed the subject of censorship, expressing harsh criticism towards Thierry Breton, the European Commissioner, whom he accuses of having tried to censor his conversation with Donald Trump.
🔹 Elon Musk referred to Breton's warning, who had said: "With a larger audience comes greater responsibility." This statement was perceived by Musk as an attempt to limit freedom of expression, which prompted him to react strongly.
🔹 To express his displeasure, Elon Musk shared a provocative meme addressed to Breton, asking him to “take a big step back and literally fuck off.” This reaction underlined his firm opposition to any form of censorship, especially when it seems to target freedom of expression on public platforms.
👉 Elon Musk then highlighted the way Donald Trump had handled freedom of expression during his first term.

The current geopolitical situation presents several factors that could prompt Iran to act, mainly due to the dynamics between Russia and the West.
🔹 Geopolitical Context:
The West, especially the United States and European countries, are providing significant military and economic support to Ukraine in its fight against Russian aggression. This assistance is aimed at weakening Russia, both economically and militarily.
🔹 Russian Strategy:
Russia, facing tough sanctions and increased support for Ukraine, may seek to divert international attention and weaken Western unity by creating crises elsewhere. In this context, provoking tensions in the Middle East could be a strategy to divide the resources and attention of Western powers.
🔹 Role of Iran:
Iran is a key player in the Middle East, with interests and alliances that put it at odds with Israel and, indirectly, with the United States. By escalating tensions with Israel, Iran may seek to exploit Western vulnerabilities and distract from issues in Eastern Europe.
🔹 Israel and US Support:
Israel is a strategic ally of the United States in the region, and tensions with Iran could lead to an escalation that could, in turn, divert some Western aid and support to Ukraine. Such a situation could weaken Western pressure on Russia.
An escalation could then lead to a final low in the markets, however, keep in mind that if this happens, there is NO cause for concern. Whether it was during Covid, the fall of FTX, or the Russian invasion of Ukraine, the #Bitcoin has always returned to its previous levels.
No matter what happens, Bitcoin will go much higher. Just be careful if you use leverage in this volatile time.

As much as the FarWest has limits, so does a totalitarian and hyper-intrusive state 🫣

TRUMP OR BIDEN - WHO’S BETTER FOR CRYPTO?
As November’s critical election draws closer one presidential candidate has made his pro-crypto stance abundantly clear, but have any promises or policies been made?
For the first time in the nation’s history, crypto policy will take center stage and play a crucial role in the U.S. Presidential race. With over 52M cryptocurrency owners in the country, according to a Coinbase report, winning the crypto vote could well mean the difference between sitting in the Oval Office and hanging up your Campaign tie for another four years.
Where do Trump and Biden stand on crypto? Will Biden attempt to make amends for Gary Gensler’s crypto crusade? Will Trump, the self-proclaimed ‘crypto president’ deliver on his claims?
BIDEN’S STANCE OVER THE YEARS
The Biden Administration has hardly been crypto-friendly in the last four years. Under Biden’s watch, Securities and Exchanges Commission Chair Gary Gensler has led a merciless campaign against the digital asset industry, serving lawsuits to crypto companies left, right, and center.
Gary Gensler hasn’t been alone in his fight against cryptocurrency. Senator Elizabeth Warren has strongly advocated against cryptocurrencies in the past, frequently using individual examples to paint the entire industry in a bad light.
With November only four months away, the Biden administration’s stance on crypto hasn't changed. A recent Statement of Administration Policy declared that the Administration was against passing H.R. 4763, a proposed regulatory framework for digital assets.
The decision was made due to the belief that “H.R. 4763 in its current form lacks sufficient protections for consumers and investors who engage in certain digital asset transactions.”
Despite refusing the framework, the Biden Administration maintains that it “is eager to work with Congress to ensure a comprehensive and balanced regulatory framework for digital assets, building on existing authorities, which will promote the responsible development of digital assets and payment innovation and help reinforce United States leadership in the global financial system.”
DONALD TRUMP - THE ‘CRYPTO PRESIDENT’
Despite calling Bitcoin a ‘scam against the dollar’ back in 2021, Trump seems to have changed his tune on cryptocurrency. In a recent tech fundraiser event in San Francisco, Trump has rebranded himself as the ‘crypto president' evidently trying to win the vote of the nation’s population on digital asset holders.
Trump’s dramatic change of heart toward the cryptocurrency world has even made its way onchain. Arkham Intelligence, a popular blockchain analysis and tracking tool claims to have identified Trump’s crypto wallet, which holds over $7 .9M of digital assets. The former President has also shown a penchant for NFTs having launched several Trump Digital Trading Card collections.
More recently, Trump has promised to “end Biden’s War on Crypto”. The Republic candidate has further declared that he is “very positive and open minded to cryptocurrency companies”. Aligning himself with the Bitcoin faithful, Trump views Bitcoin as “our last line of defense against a CBDC”.
These views align with Republican Senator Bill Hagerty, who expressed that a CBDC is “the last thing I think we need as a nation” and “would be very detrimental to our economy, to the dollar and certainly to innovation in this space” during a recent interview with Solana Head of Strategy Austin Federa.

For y'all sport fans,
Blockasset built on Solana is bringing you closer to your fav athletes. You can make predictions on sports-centered, free-to-play games to earn tokenized points, which can be used in the Blockasset ecosystem to:
✅ Make wagers on sports events
✅ Get exclusive content from athletes
✅ Attend live events
✅ VIP venue tours
✅ Even athlete training sessions
Fans get access to unique experiences and access; athletes use digital assets to supercharge deep connections to their biggest cheerleaders. Win-win!

An early team from the Solana ecosystem – they’ve been around since 2021 – Blockasset has slowly been building a following into the sports world. Soon, they’ll be working with UFC fighters, introducing a whole new audience to unique web3 experiences.
It’s a better experience for everyone
