  • NFT. There’s currently an explosion happening in NFTs (non-fungible tokens), which can be thought of as blockchain-based title deeds to a digital artifact. NFTs are basically digital collectibles. They can represent things (like tweets, real estate, real-world assets, etc.) or they can be the things (like art). The trend is a carry-on from things like the original CrypoKitties phenomenon in 2017, with the technology (Ethereum’s ERC-721 token standard) later morphing its way deep into the world of digital art.

  • NEWS. Disruptions in coal plants in Xinjiang and other parts of China have knocked out bitcoin miners in the region since April 16th, cascading Bitcoin’s hashrate (clipping as much as 35 exahashes from the Bitcoin system’s global hashrate) at the same time as Bitcoin’s price. The top 7 Bitcoin mining pools lost, on average, 16.5% of their hash rate as a result of the incident. After one week of outages, Bitcoin hashrate rebounded as Xinjiang miners came back online gradually. Read more.
