Algorithmic Stablecoins: Sexy AF or A Load of Pants?
While your regular crypto asset will fling you around like a ragdoll and reduce your life expectancy by double digits at least twice a month, stablecoins wrap us in a warm embrace and whisper in our ears that maybe, just maybe, things will be okay. They’re an anchor, a refuge and they too come in an abundance of flavours. And by far the sauciest of them, right now, are those known as algorithmic stablecoins. But the irony of algorithmic stablecoins is that… they aren’t stable.

COINB
coinbase-blues-sec,-coin,-layoffs,-nft
Coinbase. The name is a strong one. Feels connected without overegging then crypto connection. A place to call home and an entry point. And that’s Coinbase. It’s the safe, muggle friendly interface between the great unwashed and the badlands. Onramp, offramp, coin pamp, lamp wick, damp prick, man what is this shit when the market goes south and the offramp goes damp with panicked cramps.
Coinbase - blue logo, the happy colour, the safe colour, but when we talk of the blues, it’s about suffering, conflict and pain. Seen through that filter Coinbase has the blues. Sec investigations, layoffs, tanking stock, a rainbow of fud. Is it a dud? Should we throw mud? Shoulda woulda coulda, cows chew the cud, and make sense of the world. Just like me. Armed with a cloth to polish Brian’s scalp.

WHAT
what-is-brc-20-bitcoin-network-is-the
BRC-20 is a new token standard on the Bitcoin blockchain, named after Ethereum’s ERC-20. And the idea of BRC-20 is to create fungible tokens via the Ordinals protocol. However, instead of using smart contracts, BRC-20 tokens instead require a Bitcoin wallet to mint and trade tokens.

It was a wild weekend for stablecoins.
USDC depegged from a dollar to as low as $0.88 on Saturday, before bouncing fully back to its dollar peg on Monday.
Today we’re looking back over the wild weekend and figuring out what a depegged stablecoin and failing banks could signal for DeFi.

Penguins hit the skids, Vitalik says multi-chain, not cross-chain, Arbitrum goes offline and some random DeFi channel hits 100k subs. It’s monday, this must be a quick take, it was the first week of the year and it didn’t disappoint.

"IDEN
identity-is-the-one-vulnerability-being
In this week’s podcast we interview Santiago Siri, who has been working on improving the way democracy works for over a decade. He started from the inside, co-founding a political party in Argentina, his home country, but realized traditional politics would change him before he could change politics. So he started building better representation for the new world and founded Democracy Earth Foundation. It’s worth noting, that he’s been hacked by communists two times in the process.
The Democracy Earth Foundation is developing a project called Proof-of-Humanity. Proof of humanity wants to crack the problem of identity in the decentralized era of web3 -- how to prove who you are without relying on centralized entities. Proof of humanity has been able to create 5,000 on-chain identities in two months. What’s more, all of those in the network are getting streamed UBI token, which stands for universal basic income.
The next step would be for applications in web3 to integrate these identities. The initial use cases in DeFi are pretty obvious, for one, lenders could integrate with proof of humanity to start offering undercollateralized loans. The goal is to give anyone in the world the power to take back their identities away from the web2 world and use them in a system they control.

the-problem-with-nfts
Did you know that over 90% of NFTs store their image data off-chain? Instead of being directly on the blockchain, the associated images are hosted by third parties. Jason Bailey explains the vulnerability of this setup, emphasizing the need for a more secure and decentralized approach to safeguard NFT data.
