Donald Trump, the sexual predator, financial felon, and former president, gave a speech at Bitcoin 2024 in Nashville in which he promised many things that the cryptocurrency industry has been hoping for. These included having the United States hold bitcoin, removing Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) chairman Gary Gensler, and support for stablecoins. United States Bitcoin Reserve Trump noted that the United States Federal Government currently holds 210,000 bitcoins, and he insisted that if he is elected, it will hold them indefinitely. This isn’t a promise that he’ll likely be able to follow through with, since many of these coins likely have other claims against them. For example, more than 90,000 of these are bitcoins that were seized by the government with the arrest of Heather Morgan and Ilya Lichtenstein for laundering the proceeds of the Bitfinex hack.  ~110k btc 94.6k: bc1qazcm763858nkj2dj986etajv6wquslv8uxwczt 12.3k: bc1qkmk4v2xn29yge68fq6zh7gvfdqrvpq3v...

Liquidity has been the backbone of DeFi (decentralized finance) since its inception. However, securing liquidity through locked capital is detrimental to DeFi in the long term. This realization acted as a catalyst behind the inception of Bera chain’ s Proof-of-Liquidity (PoL). The traditional Proof-of-Stake (PoS) mechanism has certain irreversible drawbacks. It provides an unfair advantage to network participants at the time of TGE (token generation event), laying the ground for mass sell-offs. Also, PoS leads to a reduction in liquidity for LP pools and transactions if the chain’ s security were to be improved. Since PoS chains follow a single token economic model, protocols do not have the flexibility of funding growth with their token holdings as it may lead to a slump in the token’s price. It is to tackle these challenges that Berachain leverages the PoL mechanism. ...
