Updated Brave Roadmap Includes Decentralized Exchange Aggregator And New Brave Wallet

0

The developers of the Brave browser have updated the project roadmap. It includes decentralized exchange aggregator and a new Brave Wallet.

According to the BAT Roadmap 2.0, the Brave developers are planning to make important changes to the browser. The add-ons will expand the scope of the browser beyond web browsing and provide support for the decentralized finance (DeFi) industry.



The developers will create a DEX aggregator that will help users find and trade on the best possible price on several decentralized exchanges. According to the roadmap, Brave will create their own DEX, as developers have confirmed that they are studying this possibility.

Brave CEO and co-founder Brendan Eich said:

One of our goals is to make crypto assets user-friendly for all. The DEX that we are exploring can help achieve our goal by allowing users to securely exchange BAT and other assets at a lower price, as part of an improved user interface embedded in Brave.

Brave already has built-in widgets for the exchanges Binance, Gemini and Crypto.com on browser home page. But decentralized exchanges open up new opportunities for trading.

DEX can open up new ways to use BAT, for example, to pay transaction fees with BAT or get discounts for owning BAT. Detailed information about the DEX aggregator from Brave is not disclosed, but the developers say that it will be different from other Dex’s providing discounts for BAT owners.

A new, native Ethereum wallet implementation, replacing the existing Crypto Wallets in Brave, which will combine Brave Rewards, custodial and non-custodial accounts in Brave. The developers will change the design of the user interface and add support for both the desktop and mobile versions.

The Ethereum JavaScript provider API (window.ethereum) will be provided to web pages by default, without the need to install a separate extension. Also, developers plan to add  the ability in new wallet to purchase cryptocurrency with fiat currencies through credit and debit cards, bank accounts and smartphones.

TradeSanta Review-Automated Crypto Trading Made Simple

0

The Crypto market is going stronger than ever, attracting thousands of new traders a day. Due to the high market volatility, cryptocurrency trading may seem overwhelming sometimes, especially for beginners. One solution is automated trading strategies that remove an emotional component from trading decisions. Today we will dive deep into one of the most popular automated trading platforms in the market. TradeSanta.

[maxbutton id=”20″ ]

TradeSanta is an automated trading platform providing tools to execute different trading strategies without constant monitoring of the market. TardeSanta has been live since 2018 and is beloved by thousands of traders worldwide thanks to its friendly user interface and vast customization opportunities.

TradeSanta is available across the most popular exchanges. Users can connect Binance, HitBTC, Huobi, and other prominent trading platforms.

TradeSanta’s Tools

Technical Indicators– traders can use signals from Bollinger Bands, MACD, or RSI to launch the bot.

Stop Loss and Trailing Stop Loss– limit the risks by cutting the losses with these advanced tools.

Trailing Take Profit – take the most of the rising market by closing the deal at the price peak.

Trading terminal – trade on multiple exchanges in just one friendly user interface. It is highly recommended for traders with numerous exchange accounts.  

Martingale – Increases the size of each consequent order to reduce Take Profit price.

2FA – protect your account with 2 Factor Authentication.

Templates – Create the bot from preset templates available for all types of bots (Long and short Grid, Long and Short DCA).

Futures (alpha) – set up trading bots with leverage on top of Binance Futures Platform.

Underlying Trading Strategy

 TradeSanta automated bots have a cost averaging mechanism in its heart. All a new user has to do is to connect and exchange, choose a pair, and the bot will place buy or sell orders first and then order to take profit next. If the market goes in a contrary direction than the user predicted, the bot will place more orders to reach the take profit price sooner. This strategy can be executed in two different ways. 

Dollar-Cost-Averaging Strategy (DCA)

The bot set up to trade with DCA strategy will place the first buy order first and more extra (buy) orders if the price goes contrary to the expected trend. For all the executed orders, the bot places just one Take Profit order for all the sums of the coins purchased by the bot. With each new buy order placed, take profit price and order volume is recalculated to receive the desired profit for all the sum of acquired coins.

Grid Strategy

The Grid bot places the first buy order similar to DCA. It will also place more orders in case the price goes in an unfavorable direction. The main difference is in the way Grid takes the profit. Contrary to DCA bots, a Grid bot will place Sell orders for each buy order separately with the specified take profit. 

Let’s say you set up Grid and DCA bots simultaneously for the same pair betting on the rising price. Both bots placed the same first order. However, the price went down afterward. Both DCA and Grid bots placed more buy orders to average the price. The difference is that the Grid bot has two buy orders and 2 Take profit orders placed, whereas the DCA bot has two buy orders and one sell order placed. DCA sell order is equal to the volume of 2 previous purchases, and the price has lowered down. 

Both strategies can be set up if the coins price rises (long strategy) or falls (short strategy).

Long and Short strategies explained.

Mobile App

TradeSanta is also available right in your pocket. It offers iOS and Android apps to manage bots on the go. 

The mobile app offers the same ample functionality as the full-blown version: profit tracking and analytics, balance, managing and creating new bots with advanced features such as Martingale, Stoll Loss, technical indicators, and others.

IOTA And Curv Entering Into A Significant Partnership To Expand Iota Ecosystem

0

The Berlin crypto company IOTA and the digital custody provider Curv are entering into a partnership.

IOTA is entering into a new partnership. Their new partner is Curv. Curv protects and store digital assets of institutions with its cloud wallet. Through the cooperation with Curv, every app or entity that uses Curv’s institutional custody network would have the opportunity to support the in-house IOTA token (MIOTA).

This includes exchanges, and decentralized financial products (DeFi) such as Celsius, Stakehound, Staked.Us and Genesis Trading.

Iota was enthusiastic about the new cooperation. IOTA mentioned on their blog:

We are very excited about the integration of IOTA into Curv and look forward to seeing how the IOTA token is absorbed into an entirely new ecosystem of financial services, exchanges and dApps.

The partnership with Curv is important for the Iota for two reasons. The Curve wallet offers better options for MIOTA large investors to safely store their asset under regulatory compliance, and legal requirements.

There are many products and services that require the use of a custody solution to support digital assets. Until now, MIOTA could not have been added to a number of partner platforms, as a custody solution, but now Minota can easily be accessible by large numbers of institutional investors.

Other than this partnership, IOTA recently announced a partnership with tech giants Dell and Intel. The joint project “Alvarium” aims to measure the trustworthiness of data in order to ensure error-free communication of smart contracts.

Ripple Becomes Officially Registered In Wyoming

0

California-based fintech company Ripple Labs has registered a new legal entity in Wyoming. This is evidenced on the website of the State Secretariat.

The status of Ripple Markets WY LLC has been upgraded to active. The initial application date is February 11, 2020. The legal entity’s office is located in Cheyenne.


Ripple’s headquarters are located in San Francisco. In October 2020, co-founder Chris Larsen announced a likely change of jurisdiction to a more friendly one. According to him, the US has too strict regulation for the cryptocurrency industry.

In December, Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse said that the organization took a wait-and-see approach to the move after the election of Joe Biden as president of the United States.

The decision of the Ripple was welcomed by the founder and CEO of the cryptocurrency startup Avanti, Caitlin Long. According to her, more and more companies prefer Wyoming as a digital asset-friendly state.

In December 2020, Avanti received financial institution status from the Wyoming Banking Council. Earlier, the state authorities approved a similar application from the Bitcoin exchange Kraken.

In January 2019 the state of Wyoming passed a law that classifies cryptocurrency as money.

Recall that in December 2020, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) accused Ripple of selling unregistered securities in the form of tokens for $1.3 billion.

In February 2021, the SEC filed an updated version of the lawsuit, clarifying the liability of the company’s CEO, Brad Garlinghouse, and its co-founder, Chris Larsen.
