We all know that the world of cryptocurrency never sleeps. The pandemic of this spring and summer showed us just how severe those market contradictions can be. While Avalanche (AVAX) is displaying bullish signals and garnering investor attention, Across Protocol's token (ACX) is facing serious allegations of DAO manipulation, creating...

The air in crypto is dense with intrigue. One day you’re surfing atop the tech wave, the next, you’re looking down the maw of the shark tank. This week, that chasm is especially wide for holders of Across Protocol’s ACX token. While ACX is faltering, Avalanche’s AVAX is proving to...
The rapidly-changing landscape of decentralized finance (DeFi) is filled with opportunities, but just as quickly, new challenges arise. Recent ARCX and JUP events highlight the dangers that lie in these DAO governance structures. These tragic events lead to important conversations on how we ultimately build these robust, equitable, and trustworthy...
These are challenges that the crypto world claims to be overcoming through decentralization, community, and the like. More like a gilded cage if we’re being honest these days.

Bitcoin hitting record highs? Great. But if we’re all being honest, that ship has sailed for many of us. That’s where the real action is — right now, in the pre-deployment stages of Web3 projects. Here’s where the opportunity for real change lies in the presales. Forget Lambos. I’m referring...
