Weekly Market Summary

By putting Terra’s fresh new coin, also known as LUNA, on crypto trading platforms, traders show early support signals for the network’s  resuscitation.

On Wednesday, the HitBTC exchange announced on Twitter that Terra’s new chain token Luna would be accessible on its platform on May 27.

The announcement comes as Terraform Labs prepares to relaunch its protocol on May 27 and replace the existing Terra Classic chain with the new Terra, or Terra 2.0, chain. Terraform Labs claimed on May 23 that the new chain would not be a fork because it will be built from the genesis block and will not share Terra Classic’s history.

A member of the Proof Collective got duped and lost 29 very expensive Ethereum-based Moonbird NFTs worth $1.5 million after opening a malicious link supplied by a fraudster, according to a tweet by Cirrus on Wednesday morning.

Dollar, a Twitter celebrity and NFT owner, said that the alleged perpetrator has already been half-doxed by a crypto exchange. Proof Collective and its members are presently working on a complete report to the FBI.

A Korean watchdog begins its risk evaluation of cryptocurrency as Terra 2.0 is approved

Korea’s Financial Supervisory Service (FSS) has indicated that it would standardize how virtual asset risk is assessed.

Due to various ways of quantifying risk for each virtual asset exchange, it is currently challenging to protect investors. While the FSS’s standardization efforts are still in their early stages, once a legal framework for virtual assets has been developed, a standard assessment mechanism for all exchanges is planned.

Stablenode’s COO Doo Wan Nam tweeted on Wednesday that representatives from Korean exchanges and authorities met at the Korean National Assembly building to discuss the Terra LUNA and UST concerns. According to the Doo, the exchanges stated that the situation was unfavourable and that they would do everything necessary to protect traders on their platforms.

Uniswap has surpassed $1 trillion in volume

Since its introduction on Ethereum in late 2018, the decentralized exchange (DEX) Uniswap has surpassed $1 trillion in total trading volume.

However, this is limited to a small user base, indicating that there is much room for expansion. After little over three years, the DEX’s number of cumulative addresses reached roughly 3.9 million this month, according to statistics from Uniswap Labs, a significant contributor to the protocol’s and ecosystem’s growth.

On Tuesday, the Uniswap Labs team shared the statistics through Twitter, adding that: “Over the past three years, the Protocol has Onboarded millions of users to the world of decentralized finance (DeFi), Introduced fair and permissionless trading, Lowered the barrier to liquidity provision.”

• Spot trading: Bitcoin (BTC) remained the top dog in spot trading last week, with Cardano (ADA) climbing to second place. JasmyCoin (JASMY) and NEAR Protocol (NEAR) returned to our top in third and fourth places. Not surprisingly, TerraUSD (UST) was last as expected following the Luna disaster.
  Ethereum (ETH) is missing from the spot trading list for the first time. Is ETHs absence a one-off, or can we presume this to be a new trend?

• Derivatives: Bitcoin (BTC) and Theta Network (THETA) were in their top spots the previous week. Surprisingly Decentraland (MANA) came in third place instead of fifth. TRON (TRX) and Cardano (ADA) occupied the two last positions.
  And again, a big gaping hole where Ethereum (ETH) once stood in the derivatives top for the last week.

Crypto Doggy tokens are 10,000 non-fungible, pixelated, generative tokens (NFTs). Dog avatars with various qualities, such as dog kinds, colour schemes, eye blinking, tongue stretching, and dog accessories like spectacles, scarves, and hats, are included in these NFTs. These qualities determine the scarcity and price of these Crypto Doggy NFTs.

The overall amount of DOGGY tokens is limited to 5 billion, and every 100,000 DOGGY spent purchasing the NFT in BakerySwap is burnt, limiting the token supply. DOGGY token holders can also stake to get rewards.
