Aptos Labs Announces New Features – APT Price Massive Surge On Horizon!
The Aptos (APT) network, a layer 1 (L1) blockchain that has attracted significant crypto attention, has rallied more than 385 percent in the past 30 days. Trading around $18.25 on Thursday, the APT market has recorded total liquidations of about $6.08 million in the past 24 hours. As more traders take profits, the APT bulls are losing the rising momentum that has existed for the whole of January.
As such, the latest layer 1 blockchain with huge on-chain activity may be looking into an imminent correction. Furthermore, the APT price in the four-hour time frame has broken from a rising trend line.
Nonetheless, the Aptos developers are busy building infrastructure to onboard more NFT and crypto traders. As a result, the Aptos price could rally onward to the price discovery region and set new ATH.
Aptos (APT) Network Welcome New Upgrades
Backed by hundreds of developers distributed around the world, the Aptos network is constantly getting upgrades to meet the demand for decentralized applications. On Wednesday, the Aptos blockchain announced the release of a new upgrade dubbed v1.2.4. Notably, the Aptos node upgrade is meant to bring new features and enhancements to the developers and reciprocate to users.
With the new upgrade, the Aptos blockchain added exponential back-off to reduce timeouts for full nodes in low-bandwidth environments. Additionally, Aptos v1.2.4 has made several small performance optimizations to reduce latencies and better handle timeouts.
Previously, the Aptos team had made several changes including some that could render the network incapacitated.
“Our team also fixed a couple of bugs that had the potential to crash the validator or DoS the system. We identified these issues as part of our routine third-party auditing and bug bounty program,” Aptos Lab noted.

Venom Foundation Announces Landmark $1 Billion Web3 Fund
Layer-1 blockchain Venom Foundation has joined forces with investment manager Iceberg Capital, with the pair announcing a $1 billion venture fund to support promising web3 companies solving real-world problems.
Named Venom Ventures Fund (VVF), the blockchain-agnostic fund will be largely focused on startups involved in payments, asset management, DeFi, banking services, and blockchain gaming. Developers and builders working on innovative web3 projects are encouraged to apply via the VVF website.
Funding a Web3 Future
Although the value of the fund is destined to generate the most headlines, both entities intend to assist their chosen projects in a number of ways, leveraging their network and expertise to offer support in areas such as marketing, exchange listing, technical, legal, and regulatory.
Both Venom Foundation and Iceberg Capital are regulated by the Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM), with the latter being the first registered crypto foundation in the market. The fund will invest in projects and teams from pre-seed to Series A rounds, with ex-BlackRock CIO Peter Knez and serial MENA investor Mustafa Kheriba charged with identifying startups that can accelerate the adoption of web3 while delivering a meaningful return for investors.
“Even though the blockchain industry is witnessing a steep correction in prices, we believe that builders will continue to build and innovate,” says Mustafa Kheriba, Executive Chairman of Iceberg Capital. “With Venom Ventures, we will be providing financial, technical, and marketing support to the most promising teams and projects in web3 space to help them bring their visions to life.”
Venom Ventures Chairman Peter Knez added, “I am excited to work with a team of experienced investment professionals and talented people from the crypto industry, and we are ready to allocate strategic investments in the most innovative web3 startups that are poised for mass adoption. Our mission is to transform digital asset management and make a lasting impact on the industry.”
The new partners have wasted little time in scouting the industry for projects in need of its financial muscle: its first pledge was in Nümi Metaverse’s oversubscribed $20 million funding round in December. The creator-friendly platform is set to launch several products this year, including a mini-game experience (Visual Novel) and an all-encompassing VR metaverse.
Web3 Whales
Ten-figure web3 funds are not the norm, though there are a few other treasure chests available to talented developers. Animoca Brands’ fund Animoca Capital, for instance, is also worth $1bn, while VC giant Andreessen Horowitz (a16z) has built a $4.5bn war chest. The Venom Ventures Fund, however, is notable due to the regulatory green light its creators have received from the Abu Dhabi Global Market, an international financial center located on Al Maryah Island in the capital of the UAE.
According to a recent report from Chainalysis, the MENA region and North Africa were the fastest-growing markets for crypto adoption last year. Interestingly, the Central Bank of the UAE recently concluded a CBDC pilot for cross-border payments, news that won’t have escaped the attention of Venom – a blockchain that has ambitions to become a bridge for the adoption of CBDCs in the Middle East, North Africa, and beyond.
Bankrupt Crypto Firm Voyager Announces Agreement With Binance US To Acquire Its Assets
As Binance makes itself at the top of the headline in the crypto market by raising concerns regarding its proof-of-reserves audit, the crypto giant now attracts fresh attention after signing a deal with a popular crypto firm to acquire its assets.
Recently, Voyager Digital Ltd grabbed the best deal from the crypto exchange giant Binance US for selling off its assets after a review of a strategic bidding session with the main motive of maximizing the value returned to the platform’s users and other creditors on a specific time frame.
Binance US To Acquire Voyager’s Assets With $1 Billion Valuation
This year has been rough and tough for the entire crypto space after FTX’s bankruptcy filing and recent controversies made on Binance’s audit reports. Voyager Digital, which sits on the top of the crypto space with a robust user base of 3.5 million and $5.9 billion worth of assets, has collapsed to the ground after filing its chapter 11 bankruptcy on 6 July. However, the crypto firm once tried to sell its assets to FTX’s owner SBF for $1.42 billion in September, but the deal went in vain after FTX drastically collapsed in November.
However, Binance US now paves a clear road to return locked funds of Voyager’s users as the crypto giant won the highest bid of $1.022 billion for acquiring Voyager’s assets. Binance made the agreement clear as it was composed of the current situation and market value of Voyager Digital with an additional consideration of $20 million of incremental value.
Voyager declared that the company’s claims against Three Arrows Capital remain in the state of bankruptcy, and any further recovery on the shares will be returned to the creditors.
Binance Shapes Up Voyager Amid Bankruptcy
In compliance with the court’s documents, the primary motive of Binance US is to return the funds of users and investors of Voyager Digital. Moreover, Binance US will make a good faith deposit of $10 million to reimburse Voyager’s expenses with a maximum expenditure of $15 million. The deal may close with a one-month extension from 18 April 2023.
The next hearing is scheduled on 5 January 2023, where Voyager will gain bankruptcy court approval to execute the asset purchase with Binance US completely. Additionally, it has been made clear that Binance will work closely with Voyager to complete each transaction to comply with the Chapter 11 plan. The timeline and return of locked assets to customers will be made public, and it can be viewed by visiting the Voyager case website https://cases.stretto.com/Voyager.
Voyager officially stated, “Forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors that may cause Voyager’s actual results, performance or achievements to be materially different from any of its future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by forward-looking statements.”
Binance has widely dominated the crypto industry as it controls over half of the global crypto trading volume. However, the crypto exchange has caught the eye of several US regulatory bodies, including the U.S. Justice Department, in a possible money-laundering case and severe violations in the crypto market.
Despite being the messiah amid several firms’ collapse and bankruptcy, Binance has seen a sharp drop in its users’ confidence in storing crypto funds on the platform as it witnesses a massive surge in withdrawals over the last few days with its raising concerns about audit reports.
However, Binance seems to provide clear reports to the crypto community, and it may soon wipe out customers’ concerns by barring the platform from becoming another FTX.

Binance Announces Significant Hacker Attack
There aren’t many businesses that want to announce that they have suffered a massive loss of money and those in the Cryptocurrency industry are no exception. However, earlier this month BNB chain disclosed that they had lost a significant amount of money due to a hacker attack. The blockchain which is linked to the Binance Cryptocurrency exchange released the news which is less than ideal for anyone that is hoping Cryptocurrency winter is over and that things will go back to being slightly less volatile.
What Do We Know?
Binance is the world’s biggest Cryptocurrency exchange which is why it might not be a surprise that has recently gotten the attention of hackers. However, what many people might not have been able to predict is that a hacking attack would be able to cost them over $560 million. It wasn’t the platform itself that was targeted, instead, the Binance Smart Chain became a victim of hackers. It is this blockchain that works as a bridge for any asset transfers between networks and so the news that it can get hacked will worry many investors. As you might imagine, the CEO of Binance was quick to release a statement and recently sat down with CNBC News to talk to them about what happened. He emphasised the fact that this is something that we should be learning from saying “cross-chain bridges were particularly vulnerable to hacks and the industry needed to get better at learning from them.” Within this hack attack, no end users actually lost any money, but those that are investing large amounts of money in Cryptocurrency will certainly want to know what is being done to make sure that something like this can’t happen again.
Talking on their own platform they talked in more detail about how the series of attacks happened and how they will share further details of how it was able to happen later down the line. Of course, their priority is to make the system safe again and ensure that investors have peace of mind and confidence in using their platform once again.
The History of Cyber Attacks
Of course, Binance isn’t the only Cryptocurrency platform to fall victim to hackers and realistically they won’t be the last. Technology and the security system is always improving and getting harder to crack but then so is the software that the hackers use to infiltrate systems in this way.
We know that Chainalysis had around $2 billion stolen in a series of hack attacks, as well as the Cryptocurrency based game Axie Infinity which lost $600 million in a similar attack earlier this year. At the start of this year, the Wormhole Network was also a victim of a hack attack which saw them lose $325 million. These hack attacks may seem like they’re not a regular occurrence but with so much money held and transferred within the Cryptocurrency network, there are always going to be unscrupulous people that want to ensure they have a slice of the pie.
What Happens Next?
Experts are suggesting that this recent hack is a perfect example of why there needs to be more regulation in the crypto industry, similar to how the gambling industry has regulators to ensure safety for its users when they are getting casino offers.
Blockchain providers and Cryptocurrency platforms will no doubt be looking at the security of their own software and doing what they can to ensure that everything is as secure as possible. All eyes will be on Binance to see how they handle this and what changes (if any) they will make in the future.
It is currently run via a decentralised chain, which is something that will be debated to see if that is the best course of action in this instance.
“Decentralised chains are not designed to be stopped, but by contacting community validators one by one, we were able to stop the incident from spreading,” Binance Smart Chain said in its statement. “This delayed closure, but we were able to minimise the loss.”
The next step is for the Binance Smart Chain community to vote on what they think should happen – one thing they’ll be discussing is whether the stolen funds should be frozen and whether a reward should be put in place for anyone that helps them capture the hackers.
The Future of Cryptocurrency
There is no denying that Cryptocurrency is considered volatile even for those that choose to invest in it, but after the last few months many would have preferred news that would make it less volatile rather than more. We’ve seen some big value crashes throughout 2022 which had led to many people considering this period a Crypto winter and we had just got to the stage where people were hoping we could be in for a thaw and that things would start to improve. However, news of hacking attacks like this will do nothing to strengthen people’s confidence in digital currency and many will worry that it could lead to further drops in value later down the line.
However, what we do know is that the future is pretty impossible for people to predict – otherwise everyone would be doing it. We have less of a track record with Cryptocurrency than we do other similar financial investment opportunities so there are fewer opportunities to see what happened in the past.
Long-term the Binance attack will be forgotten as other platforms fall victim to similar crimes and other digital currency news dominates the headlines. However, for this month it is likely to have an effect on whether people choose to invest new money in Cryptocurrency and that could have an effect on the value, at least in the short term. Investors will be keeping an eye on the news regarding Binance and digital currency, keen to hear what steps the platform and blockchain have taken to ensure that an attack of this nature can be avoided in the future before they take the plunge and invest once again.

MEXC Announces Support for LUNC Upgrade and Burning of LUNC Spot Trading Fees
In support of the burn tax proposal from the Terra Classic (LUNC) community, MEXC will launch a time-limited burning event for spot trading fees for LUNC/USDT and LUNC/USDC – Starting September 3, 10:00 to September 17, 10:00 (UTC).
MEXC is the first CEX to support the LUNC upgrade and burning proposal.
The actual trading fee received will be proceeded by MEXC and will implement secondary market buybacks on a daily basis. Also, on a daily basis, MEXC will make arrangements to send LUNC tokens obtained from the secondary buy back of LUNC to the official burn address that is provided by Terra.
Currently, MEXC ranks second for the LUNC burning, with 581,983,415.1228 LUNC buy back.
What is Terra Protocol?
Terra is a blockchain protocol that uses fiat-pegged stablecoins to power price-stable global payment systems. According to its white paper, Terra combines the price stability and wide adoption of fiat currencies with the censorship-resistance of Bitcoin (BTC) and offers fast and affordable settlements.
Developments on Terra began in January 2018, and its official launch of its mainnet in April 2019. As of September 2021, Terra offers stablecoins pegged to the U.S. dollar, South Korean won, Mongolian tugrik and the International Monetary Fund’s Special Drawing Rights basket of currencies — and intends to roll out additional options.
Rebranding of Terra
After the collapse of the stablecoin of the Terra ecosystem, the LUNA community has proposed various methods to rescue the Terra ecosystem. Among them, the passage of Proposal 1623 brought substantial progress to rescue the Terra ecosystem by creating a brand new chain and began to airdrop its new tokens to the users of the Terra ecosystem.
On May 28, 2022, the genesis block of the new chain was launched to conduct future transactions under the name Terra (LUNA), and the original Terra Chain was rebranded as Terra Classic. The original native token LUNA has also been renamed as LUNA Classic (LUNC). After the tax proposal was released, the price of LUNC increased by 100%.
MEXC Global Initiatives
Three months ago, MEXC Global initiated another LUNA recovery plan by burning and buying back LUNA as well. Since then, LUNA hit the highest gain of 2,430%.

Kinoapp.xyz Announces Its Founding Membership
Kino is financing films differently so that anyone can invest in and experience Hollywood movies while protecting the rights and ownership of its creators.
THE PROBLEM part 1: Hollywood Accounting.
THE PROBLEM part 2: Unprotected Artist Rights.
THE SOLUTION: Kinoapp.xyz and what it brings.
Hollywood Accounting
What is Hollywood Accounting? Sometimes referred to as “Hollywood Bookkeeping”, are the terms for the opaque or creative accounting methods used by the film/television industry to budget or record profits for film projects. Expenditures can be inflated to reduce or eliminate the reported profit of the project, thereby reducing the amount the corporation must pay in taxes and royalties or other profit-sharing agreements, as these are based on net profit. Effectively, this means funneling the majority of the profit to the few at the top, leaving the artists (who have invested their time, energy, and intellectual property) without proper compensation. Artists in a 212 Billion dollar industry shouldn’t have to struggle, but unfortunately, most do. Hence the term “Struggling Artist”, is much more colloquially known. Kino is changing this.
Artists’ Rights:
Artists’ rights have also been at risk, especially revolving around intellectual property. In the film world, it’s common practice for a studio or network to purchase a script or concept to own the rights to the creative idea. They then have the ability to change, adjust, and claim ownership over that original concept, transforming the idea into whatever they want. Or, claiming that they made the idea in the first place. They have the final say over who plays the part, how the story should go, or if it should ever even be released. The integrity of the original idea can get watered down by executive opinions, who more often than don’t have a personal connection or understanding of the story’s perspective. Kino believes artists should be compensated for the art and ideas they create from conception to execution. Cultivating a platform for a wide range of stories to be told while giving fans of Kinoapp.xyz collaborating artists have a chance to invest, experience, and participate in the movie-making process. The democratization of the film/television industry begins with the transparency of Blockchain.
The Kinoapp.xyz
The first step is the unveiling of the Kinoapp.xyz Founding Membership, launching on September 7th. Founded by Daril Fannin (Writer/Executive Producer who has created films/tv shows with Matt Damon, Peter Berg, & Jimmy Kimmel for Netflix & Disney) and Austin Worrell (co-founder of the fastest growing social impact token that reached over $500M market cap with over 500K holders.). Kinoapp.xyz is releasing 1000 lifetime Founding Memberships, which provide a chance for anyone to access, invest and participate in every future Kino project.
Members can invest in productions consisting of talent who have won or been nominated for Oscars, Emmys, and Golden Globes, collect a piece of digital and/or physical art from the projects (ie. props, costumes), and experience filmmaking from script to screen (i.e set visits, red carpets). They’ll also get “whitelist” (aka: early) access to all Kinoapp.xyz drops, have priority for all future ones, and have the opportunity to attend the First Annual Kinoapp.xyz Party happening Dec 2022 alongside a community of celebrities, industry professionals, financiers & other fellow Founding Members.
“Money is being made (in this industry) but not being given to the people doing the work,” says Co-Founder Fannin. “By democratizing access to film/tv through this new economic model, Kinoapp.xyz is also redefining the fan experience by bringing them in before the movie is made. Members can experience a project from creation to release. “The mission is to protect artists, bridge connections with fans, create a platform for unrepresented communities, and to make some cool shit.”
Become a Founding Member! Pre-mint ends at midnight on Sept 5th and the public sale begins on Sept 7th. Join the revolution.
