Tokens!

Hey #Moni Maker 🧐

It was a busy week, but most of the news now revolves around DeFi. Decentralized finance has kept everyone on their toes for quite a while now, but this week DeFi managed to overshadow Bitcoin, and it seems like almost nothing has been happening in the Bitcoin space. The calm before the storm?

Let's find out!

“Helicopter money”? C’moon, guys! Money flew in right from the unicorn :D 60% of UNI tokens will be assigned to the community. To receive the funds one must fulfill a simple condition: if the user at least once used the exchange or provided liquidity on Uniswap, this user gets 400 tokens (approximately $1500).

UNI Token is already traded on Binance above $3, and is also listed on other major exchanges like Coinbase Pro.

So what?

It looks so simple... but such a genius step!

The mythical unicorn on the Uniswap logo is really justified: such schemes seem fantastic to an ordinary person: greed and common sense could be major obstacles. But these guys managed to support the community.

Watching DeFi is really exciting!

Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase, criticized Apple for restricting access to applications related to cryptocurrencies and DeFi. Check his thread here:

Shortly speaking, Brian tweeted that he wanted to have discussions with Apple, directly contacting the company's management, but the consent was never reached.

So what?

Lol! We won communism in the 20th century, so it's time to fight against monopolies and other likes of capitalism in the 21st.

Against the background of the war between Apple and Epic Games, a new soldier of the army in the face of Armstrong predicts a wave of outrage towards Tim Cook's company.

In any case, crypto people become so influential that they can openly disagree with Apple. Wonderful, isn't it?

Ok, so yesterday Kraken published an announcement saying that the cryptocurrency exchange has received approval to create the first U.S. bank. Not just a bank, but a cryptocurrency bank! Customers will be able to use comprehensive services for deposit taking and storage of funds, as well as fiduciary services with digital assets.

"We are pleased to announce that the state of Wyoming has approved Kraken's application to create the world's first special purpose depository institution (SPDI). The office is called Kraken Financial," – happily announced Kraken.

And that's not all! The exchange will use the online and mobile banking model. Of course, it’s a great step for dear customers to shield them from any type of discomfort.

So what?

Apparently, the U.S. does not want to fall back into the Great Depression, so they go to Bitcoin for psychotherapy. Well, Kraken will attract even more cryptocurrency followers.

But! Guys... Watch out for the bank routine. After all, stay alert to not join evil instead of fighting it...
