Some say trading is a game of luck; others view it as an adventure sport. Just like athletes love performing mind-blowing maneuvers, there’s a thrill that comes with executing the perfect trade, For those newer to the scene, trading competitions allow novice traders to learn and grow as a broker, and give more experienced participants the chance to overcome a new challenge. If you know what you’re doing, trading competitions can be a fun way to make a quick buck, but the level of risk can be hard to justify when you don’t have much to invest, especially with lackluster prizes and unpredictable markets. Phemex is no stranger to hosting trading contests, having successfully conducted Bitcoin Bonanza last month celebrating the launch of their inverse BTCUSD contracts . This time, however, the stakes are being raised. This November, Phemex, a Singapore-based crypto derivatives powerhouse, is launching the fourth edition of its ‘ Phemex Trader’s Arena ’ trading contest, encouraging team

Cryptocurrency exchange Binance has explained its dogecoin issue which resulted in withdrawal suspension and Tesla CEO Elon Musk calling the problem “shady.” The exchange says it was a “rare issue” and no one was at fault. Binance’s ‘Rare’ Dogecoin Issue, Withdrawals Resumed Binance explained its dogecoin problem Monday, stating: What began as a fairly straightforward upgrade, turned into an issue where Binance users were unable to withdraw DOGE for the last 17 days. In addition, 1,634 users were sent old transactions. “The truth is that a combination of unlikely factors led to an unforeseen issue that ultimately only affected Binance,” the company admitted. Binance explained that any platform will have the same issue if it had listed dogecoin back in 2019 at v1.14.0, had transactions stuck in the wallet, and had upgraded the wallet to v1.14.2 and then updated it to v1.14.5. The exchange added: “Unfortunately for Binance, we had inadvertently threaded the needle with all of th

Digital transformation has laid the ground for new assets in the modern economy. As we move forward to the end of 2021 – a year of new trends – the hype around NFTs and the increased interest of companies in unique digital assets shows no sign of cooling down.

At the time of writing this article, there are over 7,000 cryptocurrencies run across unenumerated protocols, on countless decentralised exchanges (DEXs), and counting. At a macro level, that stands to signal good rates of crypto adoption. But, as every crypto trader and his dog knows by now, in DeFi, quantity does not mean quality. Indeed, the real challenge in assessing DeFi projects these days is to find the projects that are so remarkable, so far off the richter scale, so immutable, that you’d be kicking yourself if you passed them up. Enter Balancer Labs. Balancer Labs , the Lisbon-born start-up turned $BN+ DeFi platform, offers a DEX of its own, with three remarkable differences: (1) Programmable Liquidity Pools for developers, start-ups and traders, (2) Managed Index Funds for traders, and (3) its Balancer-Gnosis Protocol for unmatched levels of cryptosecurity in its offerings.

There’s no denying the fact that the crypto market has continued to grow from strength to strength over the course of 2021, as is best showcased by the fact that the sector as a whole has seen its value triple from $1 trillion to $3 trillion within a span of the last 9 months. Not only that, even the innovation that has come about as a result of this rapid expansion has been staggering, to say the least. For example, the core concept underlying non-fungible tokens (NFTs) seems to have really piqued the interest of investors around the globe. Similarly, even the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector has grown to become a full-fledged market in itself over the last couple of years, thus showcasing the tremendous possibilities put forth by crypto. NFTs, in particular, are a class of digital assets, that continue to draw people to them each passing day since these offerings present owners with digital receipts representing ownership of literally any asset under the sun — be it physical o
