Other centralized exchanges (CEX) soon followed suit (OKEx, Huobi, and more).

As a DEX, Uniswap is an automated market making protocol where liquidity providers enable trades of various ERC-20 pairs.

Uniswap announced a major airdrop:

All users that interacted with Uniswap and its contract before September 2nd is eligible for 400 UNI airdrops. Anyone that supplied liquidity will be issued additional amounts.

Price movement is volatile, and 400 UNI once stood at $1244 USD:

A total of 1 billion UNI is planned (fixed cap), so this would take its total market cap to 3 billion USD. Please keep this in mind when trading UNI.

Xangle’s viewpoint in D-34 BTC halving: Miner’s hashrate
https://s3.ap-northeast-2.amazonaws.com/upload.xangle.io/files/weekly+just+the+facts/200409/(Xangle)200409_EN_C.pdf

According to crypto disclosure platform Xangle, crypto investors must pay close attention to Bitcoin’s hashrate as the halving event is just around the corner – especially since previous halving events show that price follows hashrate.

The report states that Bitcoin hashrate has increased by more than 19,766% in a year since its first halving event in November 28, 2012. Price soared after, gradually increasing by a staggering 8,069%. The second Bitcoin halving in July 9, 2016 showed similar results – its price (+284%) followed the hashrate (+248%)

For such reasons, we must attend closely to BTC hashrate. However, this time there are several unexpected variables that might affect Bitcoin’s upcoming hashrate, including the coronavirus (the hashrate has decreased by 24% already). Please check the details in Xangle Just the FACTs.

“Bitcoin halving event pre-match” How is BCH∙BSV’s upcoming halving event affecting its prices?

Crypto investors are paying close attention to BCH∙BSV as their halving events are scheduled on the 9th and 10th, respectively. Traditionally, it is interpreted that that the law of supply and demand drove bitcoin’s price to increase; however, many analysts claim that this time will be different, considering the current financial market’s influence on the crypto market.

*24H Price & On-chain Activity Trends (data provided by Xangle)
- BCH: Price(+8%) / Transactions(+82.14%), Volume (+44.19%), New addresses(+388.32%)
- BSV : Price(-3.2%) / Transactions(-1.14%), Volume (+33.35%), New addresses(-14.37%)

*7days Price & On-chain Activity Trends (data provided by Xangle)
- BCH: Price(+26.6%) / Transactions(+4.6%), Volume (-12.1%), New addresses(+94.65%)
- BSV : Price(+12.6%) / Transactions(+1.95%), Volume (+18.08%), New addresses(+36.51%)

[Xangle Briefing] Key events to watch for next week, including BCH∙BSV halving.
https://bit.ly/JTF_200402_C_E

[April 2] According to Xangle Just the FACTs, an analysis report published by the crypto disclosure platform Xangle, Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Bitcoin SV (BSV) are the two assets worth paying attention to with their halving event expected to take place next week (~8th~). Quantum Resistant Ledger (QRL) also has a hardfork taking place on the 6th.

Other attention-worthy events are:
- Ubiner (UBIN) listing on Probit (6th).
- Reserve (RSV) vs Ankr (ANKR) listing vote on Gate.io (6th) : RSV lost to Ravencoin (RVN) on 24th of March.
- Adtoken (ADT) delisting from Upbit (8th).
- CryptowarriorZ (CZ) listing on Flata (9th).

This week’s Just the FACTs features Bitcoin (BTC)’s correlation to other asset classes. In the early phases of the coronavirus outbreak BTC was labelled as ‘digital gold’ for its resemblence to the safe-haven asset.

However, a Q1 overview suggests that its performance is actually highly similar to the performance of equity(stocks), which are often labelled as risk assets. BTC performance was most related to NASDAQ and S&P performances, followed by KOSPI, NIKKEI, and Hangseng.

Stablecoin price becomes unstable due to Bitcoin’s price fluctuations
http://bit.ly/200319_EN

It seems that stablecoin (substitute for the US dollar in the crypto market) prices become unstable during huge Bitcoin price fluctuations.

According to crypto disclosure platform Xangle, there were 58 cases confirmed since 2015 when the stablecoin USDT’s prices fluctuated by a maximum of $0.05 within 24 hours. Out of the 58 cases, there were 17 cases where Bitcoin prices fluctuated by more than 10% and 36 cases when Bitcoin prices fluctuated by more than 5%.

This is allegedly because some exchanges do not allow the withdrawal of fiat currencies; hence the only way for investors to cash out Bitcoin is by buying stablecoin. On the other hand, investors might have preferred USDT over fiat when Bitcoin’s price was undervalued, resulting in an overdemand of USDT.

Here is an interesting report that shows the Global Exchange Listing/De-listing activity stats for February

https://s3.ap-northeast-2.amazonaws.com/upload.xangle.io/files/weekly+just+the+facts/200316/(Xangle)200316_EN_C.pdf

The report shows that Nasdaq turned out to be the most correlated asset with BTC this year, with 56.43% determination. This figure, however, decreases significantly to 8.24% when we stretch the period to 2018, showing that the determination between Nasdaq and BTC can change drastically under different circumstances.

Determination comes from R-squared, the goodness-of-fit measure for linear regression models. Put simply, it is a measure of how correlated, or how much variability of one factor can be caused or explained by its relationship with another factor.

-The determination between Bitcoin & other traditional assets (2020):
Nasdaq 56.43% / S&P 40.59% / Nikkei 18.2% / Silver 15.63% / Kospi 10.86% / US 2yr bond yield 7.42% / US 10yr bond yield 2.37% / Gold 2.13% / WTI 1.14%

-The determination between Bitcoin & other traditional assets (2018~present)
Gold 21.65% / S&P 11.97%/ Nasdaq 8.24%

-The determination between Bitcoin & other traditional assets (2013~present)
S&P 71.34% / Nasdaq 71.18% / Gold 26.6%

Xangle reveals that “Bitcoin is oversold”
https://xangle.io/project/BTC/disclosures/5e572906e603d6cdffd521c6

[February 27] According to crypto disclosure platform Xangle, Bitcoin is in oversold condition. Bitcoin’s price decreased more than 5% than the day before, reaching $8,700.

The MFI (Money Flow Index) and RSI (Relative Strength Index), technical indicators in measuring whether an asset is overbought/oversold, each recorded 19.2 and 27, respectively. MFI readings were calculated from Xangle’s on-chain data.

In the traditional finance market, an MFI reading below 20 is considered to be oversold, and an MFI reading above 80 to be overbought. On the other hand, an RSI reading below 30 is oversold and an RSI reading over 70 is overbought. MFI and RSI indexes are generally accepted in the crypto market as well; however, in times of panic, such indexes might show a comparatively weak correlation with price.

Meanwhile, bitcoin’s recent price volatility is continuously increasing due to global economic slowdown caused by the Coronavirus and the refusal of Wilshire Phoenix’s Bitcoin ETF.

Coins listed on Binance through the community coin vote show a price decrease of an average 24% after 7 days
https://xangle.io/project/MBL/disclosures/5e53368aaa40c06ddf417e9f

Coins listed on Binance through the community coin vote had the highest earnings on the day of the announcement – after listing, token prices showed a tendency to decline. This shows the ‘Sell on News’ effect where price increases before official announcement and decreases after.
This analysis was conducted to investigate the effect of voting on listing, which is becoming a trend among exchanges.

According to crypto disclosure platform Xangle, MovieBloc announced that it was listed on Binance after a coin vote on the 21st. Six days after the listing, Moviebloc was down 41%.

Six coins, NKN, ARPA, CTXC, VITE, DREP, and MovieBloc, have been successfully listed on Binance through the coin vote.

The average price increase rate of the six coins on the day of the voting announcement was 60.08% higher compared to 24 hours ago. On the day of listing, the price fell 7.45%; after 7 days, it decreased by 24.07%. NKN was the only coin that showed a price increase.

[Xangle Briefing] EOS inflation reduced from 5% to 1%...EOS finds appropriate inflation after 2 years of experience
https://xangle.io/project/EOS/disclosures/5e553b349c35b7e6ec29bf45

According to crypto disclosure platform Xangle, EOS’ governance voted on decreasing the inflation rate from 5% to 1%. Right after the voting passed, the governance again voted to burn 3.7% of EOS token’s total circulating volume. Such actions can be interpreted as EOS’ efforts to find the proper inflation rate to operate its network ecosystem.

So far EOS has been issuing coins at an annual inflation of 5%. Out of the 5%, 4% were kept in the EOSIO saving accounts, and the rest were distributed to blockchain managers (BPs) for network maintenance costs. Blockchain projects maintain their network by issuing additional coins, hence the inflation, and distributing them as rewards to project participants.

The 5% inflation rate, set by EOS founder Dan Larimer when the EOSIO platform was released, lasted for two years. Today’s decision was made due to the undecided use of the remaining 4% in EOS savings account. For the same reason, 4% of EOS tokens was burned last year.

Despite EOS’ inflation decrease and token burns, its impact on the market price is limited. This is because the 4% in EOSIO savings account was never distributed to the market, leaving the actual circulation untouched.

[Xangle Briefing] Existing investors, not the newcomers, are responsible for Bitcoin & Ethereum ‘s recent bull run.
https://xangle.io/mainnet-stats

The price of Bitcoin and Ethereum increased in part due to the fear of the everlasting corona virus, as suggested by the increased transaction among existing investors. New addresses & active addresses in Bitcoin and Ethereum both declined. This is in contrary to the early stages of the virus, where active and new addresses all increased.

According to the crypto disclosure platform Xangle, Bitcoin’s number of on-chain new addresses & active addresses (24H) has decreased by 13.2%, 9.16% and 0.32M and 0.61M respectively. Ethereum’s on-chain new addresses & active addresses (24H) decreased by 15.89%, 6.51%, and 90,000, 0.36M respectively.

On the other hand, other on-chain activity indicators like volume, number of transactions, and transactions over 1M USD in Bitcoin & Ethereum have both increased. This shows that trading by the existing investors contributed to an increase the price.

Bitcoin’s on-chain volume and transactions over 1M USD (24H) each showed 6,670.92M USD and 1,233 transactions, with a 17.4% and 48.2% increase respectively. Over the same period, Ethereum’s on-chain volume and transactions over 1M USD showed 349.38M USD and 49 transactions, with a 40.68% and 68.97% increase respectively.

[Xangle Briefing] IOTA Co-founder Sergey Invancheglo Leaves, and Threatens to Sue Founder David Sønstebø for Embezzlement
https://xangle.io/project/MIOTA/disclosures/5e3a19e57cf3afada79c5eed

Former Board Director and Co-founder Sergey Invancheglo submitted his resignation through Twitter, and threatens to take legal action against Chairman and Founder David Sønstebø for embezzlement related to JINN labs, the company that started IOTA. Invancheglo is demanding 25 million IOTA tokens related to JINN labs worth around $7.7M USD.

Sønstebø claims that despite Invancheglo making threats of forking IOTA and suing the foundation, he is willing to give him “all Jinn IP, engineers, advisors, brand, whatever”, and that he’d “split Jinn Labs’ token assets” so that they each get the JINN labs share of tokens on their respective networks, with Invancheglo getting his on the alleged fork.

Xangle had made a ‘Request for Disclosure’ to the IOTA foundation. Today’s Xangle Briefing is based on an official response.

[Xangle Briefing] Bitcoin SV Genesis Hardfork Complete… BSV Has No Meaningful Change in Price
https://xangle.io/project/BSV/disclosures/5e38c3c229fd

Bitcoin SV (BSV) has completed its Genesis Hardfork on the 4th of February, with the goal of: (1) unleashing its scaling potential, (2) restoring the original Bitcoin protocol and technical specifications, and (3) stabilizing the protocol. The hardfork took place at the block height of 620,538.

According to Xangle, the crypto disclosure platform, BSV is removing its block size hardcap to improve its transaction capacity and scalability. This change is expected to increase corporate/enterprise interest in BSV while increasing its mining profitability. BSV before the hardfork was capable of 1,000 transactions per second (TPS), with a theoretical limit of 9,000 TPS.

In order to restore the original bitcoin protocol and technical specifications, BSV is removing all ‘artificial’ limits imposed on the protocol. This includes restoring all the original functions once available on the Bitcoin Script language. The other goal behind the fork is to stabilize the protocol. BSV claims that just as how services were built on top of a relatively stable internet protocol, blockchains need a stable protocol too. BSV expects increased commercial activity on its network.

Despite the fork, BSV’s price after the fork is stable at $282. They had already seen a huge price movement in the last few weeks after the debacle regarding its founder Craig Wright and the alleged Tulip Trust that proves his identity as Satoshi Nakamoto.

[Xangle Briefing] Shanghai Stock Market down by 8% while Bitcoin’s 7-Day On-chain Transaction Volume is up by 45%
- 2.74 million new wallets within the last 7 days
- Investors should watch for impact of January’s economic indexes like the ISM Manufacturing Index

https://xangle.io/mainnet-stats

According to the crypto disclosure platform Xangle, Bitcoin’s 7-day on-chain transaction volume has increased by 44.29% to $71.5B USD, and Ethereum’s volume increased by 35.45% to $1.7B USD. There were 2.74M new wallets on the Bitcoin network, and 520K on Ethereum. Alternative’s Crypto Fear & Greed Index stands at 57 for greed, indicating optimism in the market.

To the contrary, due to the Coronavirus outbreak, the Shanghai stock market opened after 6 days of suspended trading to start at -8.05%. The S&P VIX index increased by 21.63% to reach the highest point since October last year, an index which indicates the level of volatility expected for the next 30 days.

Investors are cautioned to look out for the release of January’s economic indexes which could have an influence on the token prices.
