This Week's Important News Review

Chain game BigTime goes live on multiple trading platforms, token price soars, GameFi sector concept coins attract attention again

This week, the PC multiplayer action role-playing game BigTime went live on OKX, Bitget, and Coinbase. After going live, BIGTIME soared all the way up, with a 24-hour increase of over 150%, attracting attention from the community. However, due to the trading platforms blocking mainland IP addresses, users are unable to participate in purchases, so many users question whether it seems like they want retail investors to "take over". On October 12th, Binance's perpetual contract trading platform launched the BIGTIME U perpetual contract, with a maximum leverage of 20 times, but Binance did not launch BIGTIME spot trading. The last project to do the same thing was Blur, so users are worried that Binance's move will cause BIGTIME to experience violent fluctuations and it will be difficult to maintain the upward trend.

During her testimony, Caroline stated, "Alameda took billions of dollars from FTX customers and used it for our own investments. We ultimately took about $1.4 billion, some of which we have the ability to repay. SBF was initially the CEO of Alameda and the owner of Alameda, and he instructed me to commit these crimes." Caroline admitted to seven felonies last December, but at that time, SBF denied all charges against him.

Stablecoin USDR has severely deviated from its peg and issuing company TangibleDAO says it will be discontinued after redemption

On October 11th, the stablecoin USDR, which is backed by physical real estate and pegged to the US dollar, was severely deviated from its peg on the Polygon network, dropping below $0.5 at one point. USDR was launched by TangibleDAO in August 2022 on the Polygon network and is backed by physical real estate to issue tokens through over-collateralization, with profits distributed to holders to offset the depreciation of its pegged currency and achieve real estate tokenization. On October 12th, TangibleDAO announced its action plan to address the deviation issue of USDR. Due to the large redemption of liquidity DAI in the USDR fund, the market value rapidly declined, coupled with the complex real estate liquidation process, leading to panic selling and deviation. TangibleDAO emphasized that it will no longer include Real USD in the future and promised to discontinue USDR once the redemption process is completed.
