Daily Crypto NewsEDITION #881, 12 December 2023

Calmly buying coins, reading the news

Today, in 1972, the film 'The Godfather Part II' was released in cinemas. Yes, once movies about gangsters were super popular, and they are still watched and loved today... but when will they start making movies about crypto bros? 'The REKT League', 'The Face of FOMO', and, for example, 'X Stories'? Someday we'll make them ourselves, once we get rich off the bull market and completely lose our minds!

But for now, we're not that rich and quite sane. So, let's go read what's happening in the crypto world.

📰 Sending the news to press:

- China will check citizens' identities using a new blockchain-based platform. Overall, nothing new. China has long been FOR blockchain and supposedly AGAINST crypto. Key word 'supposedly'. But yes, get ready for all these crypto technologies to play against us.

- South Korea is tightening regulations in the crypto sector. They try to 'care' about the citizens. However, these rules do not apply to NFTs... hmm... does their nomenclature have a couple of BAYCs? :)

- Some crazy senator there is introducing a law against crypto. We wrote - the closer to the elections (November 2024 in the USA), the more they rock the boat to have more topics for discussion. This will scare the normies, but not us true wolves. 

- To put it very briefly, FIFA is issuing NFT tickets on Polygon. You know what such news suggests, right? :) Yes, friends, a bull market.

🔮 What are the projects doing?

- Bonk launched BonkMas. Basically, checking in for the drop.

- In SWELL, more than 50,000 swETH staked! Deposits in swETH will open in EigenLayer on the 18th.

- SUPER IMPORTANT! The Lens Protocol account tweeted 'Lens Protocol' (lol).
