Bitwise Predicts 'Bigger Wave' for Bitcoin ETFs, VeChain, and a New Altcoin Prepare for Major Rally

Kangamoon

The approval of Bitcoin spot ETFs in January has turned out to be an immense success as they continue to hit record inflows. To add to this, the CIO of Bitwise, Matt Hougan, has predicted that there will be an 'even bigger wave' from ETFs in the coming months. Meanwhile, VeChain (VET) is one of the top altcoins that has been a center of attraction following its recent announcement. With the growing bullish sentiment, crypto experts predict that VET and a new altcoin, KangaMoon (KANG), are set for massive gains in the coming weeks. Bitwise CIO Predicts Bigger Wave for Bitcoin ETFs The capital inflows into Bitcoin ETFs have been growing steadily since its approval in January. Farside recently reported that the daily inflows into Bitcoin ETFs recently peaked at over $673 million. The Bitwise CIO, Matt Hougan, has predicted that there will be an even "bigger wave" for Bitcoin ETFs. Hougan shared this sentiment after two Wall Street giants, Merrill Lynch and Wells Fargo, reportedly began offering spot Bitcoin ETFs. According to Hougan, the entrance of these major wirehouses will fuel the next wave of demand for spot ETFs. He further explained that there is "too much demand for Bitcoin and not enough supply." This prevailing circumstance is mostly bullish and is why BTC is the cryptocurrency to buy. Ahead of its halving in April, many experts have forecasted a new all-time high for Bitcoin. VeChain (VET) Poised for Break Out After Network Expansion The VeChain Foundation recently announced the launch of VeBetterDAO, the next step in its expansion process. VeBetterDAO is designed to be the foundation of a cross-sector sustainability dApp ecosystem and onboard enterprises and individuals into web3. Along with the launch, the VeChain Foundation also launched a new VOT3 token. Another altcoin was launched VHTO, to serve as gas fees. Although the price of VET didn't automatically respond to the launch, crypto analysts are bullish about the altcoin. On the weekly chart, the price of VET has increased by more than 8%, with February being its best month. Highlighting data from CryptoRank, there are predictions that the price of VeChain could potentially increase by 80% to surge to a new ATH in March. KangaMoon (KANG): The New Cryptocurrency To Buy in March KangaMoon (KANG) has been just as impressive as VeChain over the past few weeks. KANG emerged as one of the top altcoins with gains of 50%. KangaMoon has been growing in popularity because of its unique social-fi model. Using this new framework, KangaMoon users are rewarded based on their participation and activity on the network. From activities as easy as engaging and sharing posts on social media platforms, KangaMoon allows users to earn KANG tokens. With this, there has been an increased demand for KangaMoon in its ongoing cryptocurrency ICO phase. This huge demand has seen KangaMoon raise over $450,000 in the first two stages of its ICO. As the project progresses, KangaMoon users will have chances to earn mouth-watering rewards. Currently, there is a 10% bonus on all purchases available in the second stage of its cryptocurrency ICO. While early adopters are already in profit, KangaMoon promises gains of up to 220% before it launches in the first quarter. Closing Thoughts The cryptocurrency market is set to experience a major breakout in the coming months, evidenced by the growing demand for spot Bitcoin ETFs. KangaMoon and VeChain are two crypto coins strategically positioned to benefit from this market growth as they look to expand in the coming months.

Jewish News Syndicate Commentary: Anti-Defamation League ‘Smeared’ NLPC

NLPC

Elle Krasne-Cohen has come to the defense of National Legal and Policy Center in an opinion piece distributed by the Jewish News Service titled, “When Will the ADL Start Fighting Antisemitism on the Left?” She points to the Anti-Defamation League’s embrace of causes like Black Lives Matter and juxtaposes it with an incident closer to home for NLPC: More recently, the ADL smeared two mainstream policy organizations—the National Center for Public Policy Research (NCPPR) and the National Legal and Policy Center (NLPC)—accusing them without evidence of antisemitism. The ADL claimed that mere criticism of “globalism” or “globalist organizations,” including the antisemitic United Nations, is an “antisemitic dog whistle.” Krasne-Cohen continues: The NCPPR and NLPC are mainstream organizations, neither of which, to my knowledge, has displayed antipathy towards Jews or any other racial or religious minority. The smear was in the form of a posting on the ADL website on November 21 titled “Conspiracy Theories, Some With Antisemitic Roots, Crop Up in 2023 Shareholder Proposals.” The post appeared only six weeks after the October 7 Hamas terrorist attack, while antisemitic incidents and demonstrations were exploding worldwide. Why the ADL would devote time and resources to attacking NLPC, which has a long history of fighting antisemitism, was completely baffling to us. Equally baffling, the hit piece was dropped as the Thanksgiving holiday was getting underway. It was almost as if the ADL wanted the story out but didn’t want anyone to report it. The strategy, if it existed, worked because no one else covered it. Even more weirdly, the post itself carried this all-purpose disclaimer that tended to negate the impression that every other word of the post was calculated to create: At this time, there is no evidence to suggest that either organization’s agents espouse overt antisemitism, or that these proposals were filed with antisemitic intentions. So what is going on here? What was behind the attempted smear of NLPC and our ally, the National Center for Public Policy Research? Could it be that the ADL just doesn’t like us filing shareholder proposals, a form of activism dominated for many years by the Left? Krasne-Cohen and a number of other Jewish commentators and activists are making this case that the ADL, under the “leadership” of former Obama White House staffer Jonathan Greenblatt, has devolved into an ideological and partisan tool. ADL’s hit and run on NLPC was actually quite clever. Even if no one paid any attention to it when it was published, whoever wrote it (the piece is unsigned) sought to plant it on the internet for anyone to find for years to come. Any journalist seeking to discredit us can now simply describe NLPC as a “group that, according to the ADL, promotes antisemitic conspiracy theories.” It was a nice try but it is not going to work. NLPC’s track record of fighting antisemitism over many years is just too strong. Indeed, while the ADL has been sanitizing antisemitism by partnering with the likes of Al Sharpton, NLPC has been consistent, resolute and effective. To wit: Ben & Jerry’s - When the Unilever subsidiary Ben and Jerry’s announced in 2021 that it would end ice cream sales in “Occupied Palestinian Territory,” NLPC swung into action, launching the StopBenandJerrys.org website. In September 2021, NLPC filed a Complaint with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) against Anuradha Mittal, the anti-Israel chair of the Ben & Jerry’s board of directors. A few weeks later, she was named 2021 “Antisemite of the Year” by the website StopAntisemitism.org. Mittal appeared to have violated laws governing self-dealing by acting as a trustee of the Ben & Jerry’s Foundation while approving donations to her personal nonprofit where she is executive director taking a full-time salary. Also, the president of Ben & Jerry’s charitable foundation, Jeff Furman, steered more than $100,000 of its funds to his own nonprofit organization. In the wake of October 7 Hamas attack, Flaherty wrote an op-ed titled, “Unilever, Ice Cream and Antisemitism.” Unilever Divestment - NLPC was a proponent of Unilever divestment efforts in New York, New Jersey, North Carolina and Virginia. From the September 16, 2021, New York Times: “We are doing this because somebody has to hold the independent board of Ben & Jerry’s accountable for their anti-Semitic use of their platform and company resources,” said Tom Anderson, a director of the National Legal and Policy Center. NLPC collaborated with activist investor Michael Asher in support of Unilever divestment by New York State and New York City. In Virginia, Flaherty met with State Attorney General Jason Miyares and urged him to seek divestment of state funds from Unilever. In North Carolina, NLPC asked Treasurer Dale Folwell requesting divestiture of Unilever holdings in public pension funds. Black Lives Matter & Patrisse Cullors - As a result of original NLPC research, Black Lives Matter Global Network Foundation co-founder Patrisse Cullors was forced to resign from the group in 2021. NLPC’s allegations, detailed in a Complaint to the IRS, related to her purchase of four pieces of real estate, and apparent self-dealing and inurnment. NLPC has also emphasized Cullors’ 2015 call at Harvard Law School for individuals to “step up boldly and courageously to end the imperialist project that’s called Israel.” NLPC was early in reporting about Black Lives Matter’s (BLM) links to anti-Israel groups. In 2016, Carl Horowitz, then a member of the NLPC staff, wrote a website post titled “Black Lives Matter Activists Join Anti-Israel Boycott.” Following October 7, NLPC asked Visa, Inc. to remove its BLM endorsement from its website and condemn Hamas and antisemitism. We had raised the BLM issue earlier in the year at the company’s shareholders’ meeting. NLPC had also raised the issue of Coca-Cola’s support for BLM at the company’s annual meeting. ADL’s Omar Resolution - NLPC has been a persistent critic of Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Ilhan Omar, and Rashida Talib. While we have cited financial irregularities in a Federal Election Commission complaint against Ocasio-Cortez and a House Ethics Committee complaint against Omar, NLPC has also criticized hostility to Jews by these members. In 2019, NLPC endorsed and publicized the ADL-initiated House resolution condemning Omar. See this op-ed titled “Antisemitism and Islamophobia: No Moral Equivalence” by Horowitz. Foreign Funding of U.S. Higher Education - The recent spate of on-campus antisemitic incidents has shed light an issue on foreign financial support for American colleges and universities, an issue that NLPC has investigated and publicized for several years. See this column by Charles Gasparino that extensively quotes NLPC Counsel Paul Kamenar. Al Sharpton - Whereas the present leadership of the ADL has sought to erase Sharpton’s past, NLPC will not forget his incitements in the 1991 Crown Heights riots, in which a Jew was murdered, nor will we forgive his dangerous statements, such as “If the Jews want to get it on, tell them to pin their yarmulkes back and come over to my house.” Sharpton was fined $285,000 in 2005 by the Federal Election Commission as a result of an NLPC Complaint for running an “off the books” presidential campaign. For several years, NLPC raised the issue of support for Sharpton’s National Action Network (NAN) at the shareholders’ meetings of American corporations, including PepsiCo, Anheuser-Busch and Colgate-Palmolive. Unlike the ADL, NLPC has never used the fight against antisemitism as a partisan weapon. In 2010, NLPC objected to the sponsorship of Sharpton’s National Action Network annual meeting by the Republican National Committee (RNC) and the participation of then-RNC Chairman Michael Steele. In 2009, NLPC asked former House Speaker Newt Gingrich to end his partnership with Sharpton in a campaign for “education reform.” That same year, NLPC criticized then-President George W. Bush for praising Sharpton. Jesse Jackson - In 2005, the New York Stock Exchange ended its financial support for Jackson’s Citizenship Education Fund, in response to a demand by NLPC that cited Jackson’s 1984 “hymie” and “Hymietown” comments, as well as financial improprieties involving the Fund. And if none of this is good enough for the ADL, it should be noted that NLPC has many Jewish supporters, including prominent individuals and former government officials, several of whom serve on the boards of local and national Jewish organizations. From 2001 to the time of his death in 2019, Edward M. Ackerman of Dallas was a key advisor and major donor to NLPC. His legacy is carried on today by NLPC and the Ackerman Center for Holocaust Studies at the University of Texas at Dallas. The ADL itself has partnered with the Ackerman Center. Founded in 1991, the National Legal and Policy Center promotes ethics in public life through research, investigation, education and legal action.

Where Next For Uniswap (UNI) and Toncoin (TON)? Traders Eye KangaMoon (KANG) As the Top Meme Coin for High Returns

Kangamoon

Throughout most of 2023, Uniswap (UNI) experienced a bearish trend, but as the new year unfolds, the token broke free from this bearish zone and gained fresh momentum. Toncoin (TON), on the other hand, continues to grapple with volatility and bearish pressure. Meanwhile, in search of fresh opportunities, investors turn towards KangaMoon (KANG). With its focus on engaging a large community of meme coin enthusiasts through play-to-earn (P2E) games and other earning opportunities, KangaMoon is positioning itself among the top new meme coins to buy in 2024. Uniswap (UNI) Experiences a Price Spike After a Year-Long Bearish Market Despite enduring a bearish market for the majority of 2023, Uniswap (UNI) has recently shown strong positive momentum, with a remarkable 61.97% increase over the past year. What is particularly noteworthy is the sudden price spike witnessed in the previous week. The price spike propelled Uniswap token from its previous level below $7.48 to its current level well above $10. As a result, UNI token has gained an impressive 80.72% in the past month and a notable 42.48% in the past week. Currently, Uniswap is trading within a weekly price range of $7.06 to $12.62. With its current momentum, there is a strong possibility of UNI reaching new heights before the end of March. KangaMoon (KANG) Is Becoming One of the Top New Meme Coins To Buy KangaMoon (KANG) is making significant strides to tap into the billion-dollar blockchain gaming industry. Positioned as the next prominent contender in the meme coin market, KangaMoon aims to establish a platform where players can engage in various games and contests to win rewards and prizes.

Fundamentally, the native KANG token functions as the primary currency used for transactions within the KangaMoon ecosystem. Notably, this ecosystem combines social networking, blockchain games, and decentralized finance (DeFi).

The cryptocurrency, formerly known as Toncoin, has undergone a rebranding and is now called "The Open Network." Despite these developments, Toncoin's price has not shown any significant price surges.

Metis Announces Major New Collaborations Advancing Self-Sustainability

Metis

Ethereum Layer-2 roll-up platform Metis is excited to announce major collaborations with Chainlink Labs, EigenLayer, Renzo, Ethena, and DeFi Kingdoms. These collaborations will make Metis even stronger and more accessible—a superfluid self-sustaining blockchain—by enabling better user experiences and deeper liquidity. Many Ethereum Layer 2 (L2) networks offer low transaction costs and decent user experiences. But for long-term viability, an L2 also needs to be self-sustaining with deep liquidity. Metis already has the lowest transaction fees among its peers and will soon be the first Ethereum L2 with a decentralized sequencer, removing a centralized point of failure and protecting Metis’s future. As a part of these new developments, the Metis bridge interface will be upgraded to leverage Chainlink CCIP as the official cross-chain infrastructure to power the canonical Metis token bridge, with an initial focus on bridging leading stablecoins from Ethereum mainnet onto the Metis network. Over time, additional blockchain networks and tokens are expected to be supported to further accelerate the growth of the Metis ecosystem. Additional information on the migration will be provided in the near future. Over the next couple of months, EigenLayer will integrate Metis, creating a new liquid-restaking layer to the Metis ecosystem and dramatically boosting the network’s liquidity. Native and cross-chain restaking on Metis will come first, followed by dual restaking with $METIS, the Metis network token. Eigenlayer will also allow users to use $METIS to pay for EigenDA, EigenLayer’s hyperscale data-availability layer, with additional functionality for future actively validated services (AVSes) and roll-up services coming in mid-2024. Metis’s partnership with Renzo will bring native ETH restaking. Using Connext’s Restake from Anywhere module, users will be able to deposit Metis-native ETH into Renzo for ezETH without worrying about bridging and restaking manually. This will unlock easier access to DeFi within the Metis ecosystem. Ethena will also contribute a key component to Metis's new liquidity layer: the yield-bearing stablecoin USDe. Protected by LayerZero's security, USDe allows users to deposit traditional fiat, ETH, or liquid staking tokens (LSTs) and earn yield while minimizing risk through delta-neutral hedging. Bridging USDe from multiple blockchains to Metis will give users flexible investment options and nicely complement Metis's recent Liquid Staking Blitz. Ethena users can also bridge their USDe to Metis from multiple chains, all powered and secured by LayerZero. Lastly, after two years of development, DeFi Kingdoms (DFK) will deploy a new, eagerly awaited combat mode of their game on Metis, introducing player-versus-player (PvP) battles and tournaments in the Colosseum. At launch, this feature will live exclusively on Metis. On Avalanche, DFK generated up to $130 million daily at its peak, so the new game mode has significant potential to bring players and transaction volume to the Metis blockchain. Together, these five developments will give users compelling new reasons to choose the Metis ecosystem while eliminating more of the pain points associated with L2 networks. With new value propositions and substantial new incoming liquidity building on a successful foundation of low fees and increasing decentralization, Metis is well-positioned to be a superfluid, self-sustaining blockchain. About Metis Metis is an EVM-equivalent Ethereum Layer-2 protocol focused on bridging the gap between Web2 and Web3. Metis provides users with a secure, decentralized, scalable, and easy-to-use network. Contact Details Colin Landers colin@energentmedia.com Company Website https://www.metis.io/

AdvicePay and eMoney Streamline Workflow to Get Paid for Financial Planning with Integrations

AdvicePay

AdvicePay, the leading platform for processing payments and overseeing compliance of fee-for-service financial planning so advisors can get paid for their advice, announced today that it has launched new integrations with eMoney Advisor, a leading provider of technology solutions that helps people talk about money, that will offer efficiencies for joint customers navigating between the two platforms. With the integration, advisors can eliminate redundant tasks like logging in or creating client profiles in each platform. Advisors will also be able to send AdvicePay-generated documents, such as planning agreements or invoices, directly to their client’s eMoney vault, centralizing all important information related to their engagement with the advisor. “As more and more financial advisors charge standalone fees for their financial planning services, existing AUM-based workflows for billing from portfolio management systems may not work anymore. Instead, as financial planning becomes the central value proposition, financial planning software like eMoney becomes the central hub for clients… and so it’s only natural that financial planning fee billing capabilities become more deeply integrated to financial planning software,” said AdvicePay co-founder Michael Kitces. “We view the eMoney partnership as a unique opportunity to join forces with another leader in this space. Together, we are building an entire fee-for-service planning ecosystem to help advisors capitalize on the growing demand from consumers to be able to simply pay one-time or ongoing subscription fees for the advice relationship they want.” For AdvicePay and eMoney, the integration creates a natural synergy. The idea for the integration originated with AdvicePay clients, who expressed interest in having a tie-in between the two systems and will be available to all eMoney advisors looking to begin charging financial planning fees (or to expedite their billing workflows if they already charge for financial plans.) “We look forward to helping advisors simplify and streamline their workflow so they can more easily get paid fees for their value and spend their time doing what matters most: working with their clients to plan for the future,” said Ricky Illigasch, VP, Product Management at eMoney Advisor. In November, AdvicePay announced that it had completed its one-millionth transaction since its launch in 2018. Over the past two years, AdvicePay has experienced a 102% increase in advisors added to the platform and a 193% growth in transaction volume. In 2023, for the second straight year, AdvicePay was named one of America’s fastest-growing private companies on the prestigious Inc. 5000 list.
