For many new cryptocurrencies, a significant sign of progress and success is being listed on more and more prominent platforms, especially crypto exchanges. This is because these exchanges are the means by which most people are able to buy, sell, and otherwise acquire cryptocurrency, and being listed on the prominent exchange is often a sign that a cryptocurrency is popular and valuable. This is the case for SaTT, which recently announced listings on two prominent cryptocurrency exchanges. The exchanges in question are KuCoin, which is a centralized exchange, as well as UniSwap, which is a Decentralized exchange. The announcement of this was made on September 18, 2020, by the American-based company.wd as. This is not the only recent development for the company as it is currently at the end of its initial coin offering which made news in the last few weeks. The ICO made news because it was able to exceed the $1 million mark within 48 hours and also exceeded its softcap of $3,360,000 in less than a week. This was remarkable because the ICO market is largely considered to be depleted, but its success shows the confidence of the public in the project. Now, the public will be able to access their native SaTT token on the two exchanges. The management of SaTT has thanked the public for their support in a recent statement. “To all who believe in SaTT and continue to express your amazing support for the SaTT token sale, as a show of our tremendous appreciation, we are going ahead of schedule with our token listing on the 24th of September. “KuCoin is a world-class digital asset trading platform and we are proud to be listed on such a reputable exchange. For the DEX supporters, we have selected UniSwap, the leading decentralized permissionless exchange,” said SaTT CEO Gauthier Bros. The sentiment was reiterated by the management of KuCoin, more specifically KuCoin Global CEO, Johnny Lyu. According to him, the exchange has always been a home for hidden gems within the cryptocurrency community such as the SaTT token. Furthermore, he reiterated that his company is happy to support promising blocking products with its financial services, which include trading and staking. “Digital advertising is a billion-dollar market and we have seen SaTT’s potential to develop a new advertising solution with lower cost and more transparency,” he said. The project is a social media-focused one that allows influencers to be rewarded for the creation of content based on the performance of the content in question. This taps into both the social media influencer space as well as the cryptocurrency space which might explain the popularity of the project. The SaTT platform has just fully launched in the third quarter of 2020 and now, it is moving its attention towards crypto exchanges. From September 24, 2020, the token holders of SaTT can start making deposits on various exchanges in anticipation of trading. The trading pairs that will be made available will be announced when the deposits formally open on the various exchanges. It was also announced by SaTT management that five more exchanges have formally signed on to list the SaTT token although the names of the exchanges have not been made public just yet. So far, the project has raised over $4 million with over 13,400 active SATT token addresses in existence. This number can be expected to increase once active trading begins to take place across the various exchanges. It is also notable that the exchanges to list the token and not just centralized exchanges such as KuCoin but also UniSwap which caters to those who favor the decentralized platforms with permissionless exchanges. The SaTT project was developed by the team at Atayen Inc. which has previously worked with brands, such as Coca-Cola McDonald’s and Disney. The company took a bold step going into the ICO market which in the past was riddled with fraudulent offerings for which the Securities and Exchange Commission in the United States is still conducting investigations. Many had considered the market largely dead, but the success of the project shows otherwise. When the project first came to light two years ago, it took a while for it to find its footing, but the team focused on creating the final project which is now seeing fruition. Once the additional exchanges to list the token are announced, customers will be able to make deposits on to them in the coming weeks. Following this, it is only a matter of time before it becomes obvious whether or not the token’s previous success in its ICO will translate into its price on exchanges.

The past weeks have been very eventful for the entire cryptocurrency space as DeFi becomes the hottest word on everyone’s lips. Just like the 2017 ICO incredible wave, DeFi is replicating the same pattern but a more sustainable one. 

The Defi surge has been welcomed with a stunning interest with an all-time high of $9.51 billion locked in the protocol as of September 2, according to DeFiPulse. With over 6% of ETH supply locked in the protocol, DeFi has contributed largely to the increase in network activities in the Ethereum blockchain, leading to network congestion and incredibly high fees. 

And of course, ETH’s price has been a fair reflection of the DeFi explosion. We probably were engulfed in all the euphoria, but not to the extent of not noticing the massive feat pulled by SaTT blockchain project. 

Most people would argue that investors’ confidence in ICO went bizarre solely because of the difficulty in separating a good project from the trash project that has infiltrated the industry. With the SaTT narrative, it has been proven that what a blockchain project needs to succeed is far from mere hype but a viable use case and a workable product. 

Since its launch in 2018, SaTT has been resilient in speeding development with regards to delivering a workable advertising product. The SaTT advertising blockchain-based platform went live early this year, even before the launch of the last stage of its ICO. 

In the past few months, SaTT has concentrated on delivering products that power the SaTT advertising platform and interfaces that enable businesses to promote their brands and products. 

The SaTT advertising platform was fully launched in Q2, 2020 and now ready for enterprise and business use. What we know to be the blockchain narrative has always been “write a beautiful whitepaper, raise the million-dollars fund, and then think of how to build the product.” 

But SaTT seems to be doing things entirely different as the project has proven to be innovatively unique in adopting the approach of, “if you build it, they will come.” The success of SaTT approach is a testament in the massive interest that rallied behind the last round of its token sales which saw over $1 million being raised in just 48hours. 

A rare feat that hasn’t been easily achieved by any ICO project since the burst of the ICO bubble in early 2018. This stunning achievement wouldn’t have been possible, thanks to the quality of the team and the strong community that has continually rallied behind the project. 

SaTT seems to be doing everything necessary to stay at the front page of the crypto news media as the project has already secured 3 exchange listings as SaTT token is set to be listed on crypto exchanges on the 24th September. This is an important milestone in making SaTT token a globally accessible digital advertising currency. 

The platform connects businesses and influencers (advertisers) in a decentralized environment, enabling the businesses to advertise their brands via YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram through influencer marketing. With SaTT, anyone with a social media account could become an influencer for any business brand under the SaTT platform. 

By making an influencer recommendation or a publication via these social platforms, publishers get rewarded based on the level of engagement their publication generates (number of views, shares, likes, comments of the publication). SaTT simplifies the advertising process which drives high engagement, increases business revenue, and also returns fair rewards for publishers.

Singapore, September 23, 2020 – Against the predominantly dim and drab ICO backdrop, smart advertising token SaTT ICO has continued to defy expectations. Alongside its remarkable ICO fundraising, the project is proud to announce yet another exchange listing, this time with the popular global digital asset trading platform ProBit. “We are excited for SaTT to be traded on ProBit Exchange,” declares Ronald Chan, ProBit Exchange CEO. “SaTT will be available for trading against and we look forward to SaTT’s solutions making an impact on the advertising world globally.” Hitting its soft cap of USD 3,360,000 under a week, the amount raised on the SaTT ICO has been substantially and steadily increasing. With less than 24 hours left, the amount raised by the smart advertising marketplace platform currently stands at USD 5.7 million. The past two years has seen the SaTT team hard at work, delivering a working product as opposed to countless hyped-up ICO projects with hollow claims of solutions and products that never materialized. Since Q3 2020, the blockchain-based SaTT advertising platform has been up and running, delivering smart campaigns for advertisers and influencers/publishers. “SaTT is excited to be able to expand our user base to more markets such as Korea, where Probit Exchange garners a Top 10 ranking,” says Gauthier Bros, SaTT CEO. “Furthermore, SaTT has a massive French following and Probit is one of the few exchanges that caters to the French community, certainly an excellent fit in terms of listing partnerships.” Launched in 2018, the ProBit platform currently provides 400 tokens for trading in 700 markets with 800,000 monthly active users. ProBit’s 50 million combined monthly visitors on Coinmarketcap and Coingecko is a testament to why the exchange features among the most popular global digital trading platforms in terms of real website traffic and volume. The details for the SATT token listing on ProBit Exchange are as follows: Deposit: 18:00 (UTC+8), September 24, 2020 Trading: 18:00 (UTC+8), September 25, 2020 Withdrawal: 18:00 (UTC+8), September 28, 2020 Trading Pair: SATT/ With more trading promos and other details on the way, the community should stay tuned to SaTT’s official social channels for the latest announcements of the SATT token listing on ProBit.

If you asked many crypto enthusiasts and financial gurus, they would tell you that Initial Coin Offerings (ICOs) are dead. ICOs were the tool of choice for companies in the cryptocurrency and blockchain space looking to raise funds a few years ago, especially around 2017 when cryptos were at their highest price point. That period has been described as a crypto wild west that was plagued by fraudulent offerings, governmental bodies having to get involved, and poorly-run funding rounds. Since then, it has been suggested that ICOs have died off, just around Bitcoin’s first major bear run.

However, it seems this might not be the case. SaTT, a company that uses cryptocurrency to monetize social media accounts, has successfully raised $1 million in 48 hours of its ICO launch. 

While the project recently saw an explosion of growth, the ICO first launched in 2018 which was a low point in cryptocurrency in terms of price. Despite this, it stayed at the top of ICOBench’s rankings for over six months. Even now, the sales of the project’s tokens continue to remain steady, even though it is 24 days away from its official listing. 

Gauthier Bros, CEO of Atayen, SaTT’s parent company, has spoken publicly about the recent happenings. 

"We are proud of the support of our community, who, despite the difficulties in the market, saw in the team the potential to realize the first cryptocurrency solution for functional advertising. This sudden financial success will accompany our determination to make SaTT, the 3.0 advertising solution,” he said. 

SaTT has one of the most interesting business models within the cryptocurrency and blockchains sector. It allows influencers and micro-influencers to monetize their various social media accounts by way of smart contracts. The remuneration is based on the performance of their content. This means audience engagements such as likes, views, and comments which are tracked by the project’s blockchain. It also features a built-in wallet that allows for easy storage of tokens and makes the process easier even for those less-experienced with cryptocurrency and blockchain. 

Atayen, the parent company behind SaTT, has significant experience within the tech field spanning several years. In the past, they have developed 9 different Facebook applications. They have also worked with companies such as Coca-Cola, McDonald's, and Netflix. The company has been in existence since 2011 and has a userbase of over 1 million. In terms of consulting, the project benefits from the expertise of Richard Wang (from the Dragon Draper Digital investment fund), Quentin Herbrecht, a blockchain consultant at the European Commission and founder of Markchain, (the marketing firm that support the project) and Eric Alexandre, the founder of JetCoin.   

While this victory on the part of SaTT is remarkable in itself, it does have larger implications for the cryptocurrency price and industry as a whole. Back in 2017 or 2018, it was not very unusual for a crypto-related company to raise millions of dollars through an ICO. That period of time saw billions of dollars being raised, with $4.9 billion in 2017 across 850 ICO projects and another $6.3 billion being raised in 2018 from over 1,100 ICO projects.  The wild west had been in full swing but soon ended, with a 95% drop in ICO participation and only $371 million raised in 2019. The reasons for this include poor management of ICOs, the prevalence of scams, and the decline of the crypto price. 

Needless to say, a company raising such an amount of money in such a quick time is not a common occurrence in 2020. To properly understand the implications for the cryptocurrency price, it is important to explore the price landscape back in 2017 and 2018. Bitcoin, around that time, was worth around $20,000 per token and as a result of the money to potentially be made in the market, many new entrants could be found. This meant not only people buying cryptocurrencies but people buying into ICOs in the hopes of getting a piece of the next big thing. 

As time has come to show, however, most of these projects were not the next big thing in crypto. In fact, 80% of them have been dubbed scams in hindsight. This level of fraud, coupled with the decline in cryptocurrency price, led many to sell and exit the market. In the aftermath of the ICO wild west, a new crop of tokens and projects have sprung up in a market that is more mature and organized for investors. The market is also more regulated as bodies like the Securities and Exchange Commission in the United States have put more laws in place and are better at prosecuting fraudulent ICOs after doing so for years in wake of the Wild West.

This has two major implications; first, any company holding a successful ICO in 2020 is likely a quality project as it is much harder to get away with scam projects now than it was in 2017 or 2018. Furthermore, this success could indicate a return of investors to the market and a potential bull run. Bull runs are often triggered by an increase in investor spending in the market and this is certainly a sign in this regard. 

SaTT’s recent success defies expectations of ICOs in 2020 and also offers hope for the future of the cryptocurrency market. Furthermore, it shows that ICOs might very well be making a comeback, better, and more organized than before. 

After announcing its token listing on BW Exchange, an exchange with MSB (Money Service Business) license issued by the US Treasury Department FinCEN and which is also co-founded by one of the largest miner manufacturers in the world, SaTT closed its crowd sale with USD 7.1 million, a notable ICO achievement in 2020.

The very next day was followed by its next exchange listing, ProBit, a popular digital assets trading platform that is highly ranked in Korea and also a good choice of exchange to cater to SaTT’s strong French following. 

Over the weekend, the ‘Big Burn’ was implemented. This is a common practice where tokens of a project or exchange are burnt in order to restrict its supply, done in the hopes of increasing demand for the token and subsequently also increasing its value. 

SaTT has announced that they are burning “all unsold tokens left from the crowd sale”. But the big surprise was that they were also burning additional tokens from the other token allocations. Basically, they were going to apply the percentage (47.35%) of unsold tokens from the crowd sale to ALL the other token allocations and burn that entire crop – a whopping 9.47 billion SATT. The entire supply of SATT tokens is 20 Billion. Needless to say, the news was warmly welcomed by the community. 

Early this week, SaTT announced yet another token listing, this time on the CoinGecko Top Ten ranked crypto exchange, WhiteBIT. As an EU-compliant exchange that meets KYC and AML requirements in Europe, WhiteBIT also offers one of the lowest trading fees for its crypto-to-crypto and crypto-to-fiat transactions. Definitely another welcome addition to the list of exchanges it is on. With deposits opened yesterday, the exchange is already open for trading the SATT/USDT pair today.

Once upon a time, packaged software was all we knew. That was the late 60’s and early 70’s when the concept of Open Source hadn’t yet been birthed. The norm for programmers was to be hired to write code for corporations or sell code to companies or consumers. To be sure, open source software itself already existed but the term had not yet been coined. Computers and software were a new thing and enthusiasts would meet up and write code for fun, a scenario not unlike that of the recent gatherings and meetups of blockchain technology enthusiasts. Meanwhile, development of software based on the sharing and collaborative improvement of software source code gained more popularity over time (in large part as a protest against proprietary software giants like Microsoft) and in the late 1990s, gained mainstream recognition that led to the coining of the ‘Open Source’ label. Basically, the term Open Source denotes that a product includes permission to use its source code, design documents or content. This means any developer or programmer can contribute to the development of an open source project, which is an amazing way of involving global talents and communities to collaborate and produce high quality programs. Last month when smart advertising token SaTT announced its decision to get on the open source route, it was precisely to take advantage of this aspect of Open Source. According to SaTT: Open Source does offer advantages when compared to Proprietary Development, such as – the backing and involvement of global talents and communities as mentioned; enhanced levels of creative freedom for developers and platform customization to the end user; open source projects with vibrant communities increase their chances of finding and fixing bugs, amongst the reasons to choose open source development. Indeed, SaTT is in good company taking the Open Source route. Some of the best known and most successful blockchain projects are open source. Ethereum immediately springs to mind of course, as the open source blockchain platform on which smart contracts run. Proposed in 2013 by Vitalik Buterin who has since become one of the most influential voices in Blockchain, the distributed public blockchain network enables developers to build and deploy next-generation decentralised apps easily. Currently, the Ethereum platform is depending on open source development for a widely anticipated major upgrade to Ethereum 2.0. The Enterprise Ethereum Alliance is one of the largest open-source blockchain initiatives representing a wide variety of business sectors which includes technology, healthcare, banking, energy, government, pharmaceuticals and many more. Hyperledger Fabric, the enterprise-grade permissioned distributed ledger framework that enables performance at scale while preserving privacy; Solidity, the contract-oriented programming language; MetaMask, one of the most downloaded blockchain browser extensions which equips you with all you need to manage digital assets are just a handful of the numerous open source blockchain projects that have made their mark on the industry. Outside of blockchain the open source success stories are considered mainstream technology successes. Linux has come a long way since Linus Torvalds announced the creation of an OS kernel back in 1991, with a majority of web servers currently running on its platform. Used by numerous websites and services, amongst them Wikipedia and Facebook, MySQL is the most widely used database server in the world. Utilized by 46% of all websites in the world, Apache HTTP Server has been the most popular web server software since 1996. WordPress is one of the most dominant and popular blog platforms. Google Chrome has overtaken the global desktop browser market share for 2020 with 77.3%. Indeed, history has indicated that open source developments have been successful in claiming substantial market share. Can the SaTT project live up to its goal of being the working advertising solution that will be widely adopted by its industry? With a utility token that enables advertisers to buy smart advertising services on its dApp platform, SaTT helps to quantify ROI using blockchain oracles that retrieve data from media platforms like YouTube, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and others. When the actions performed by influencers and content creators successfully meet the criteria set by the advertiser, payments are triggered automatically from the advertiser’s preloaded budget to the wallet of the influencer/publisher. Offering up a fast, secure, tamper-proof, and cost-efficient solution, the SaTT smart advertising system shows much promise, not to mention that it is already a working solution, now in the midst of implementing a massively large scale POC. With a roadmap that details how it will reach Open Source mode in six to nine months’ time, SaTT seems to be taking a step in the right direction.

Crypto Highlights: Coinbase Halts XRP trading, Bitcoin Whales Feast Continues after Christmas, Altseason underway, Miners revenue hits ATH: there is more in this week’s Crypto Highlights.

In news that shocked the crypto industry, Coinbase, the leading cryptocurrency exchange has announced that it plans to halt trading XRP tokens on Coinbase after January 19th. Furthermore, the exchange has stated that they may halt trading services well in-advance given the rising circumstances against Ripple.

Following Coinbase, OKCoin also announced earlier yesterday that they will impose a ban on XRP deposits and suspend trading from the 4th of January advancing the timelines further. 

The topic also gained a lot of attraction on social media especially on Twitter as crypto followers shared their insights openly on the future of the digital asset. 

The general sentiment over Twitter could be summarized to a tweet by a crypto follower where they stated “Liquidity will dry up and the remaining market makers in Asia will have to exit it too.”

Does this mean the end for Ripple’s XRP? We won’t have to wait long to find out.

Despite the 2020 Bitcoin halving which saw miners’ reward halved into two, miners’ revenues by terahash per second (TH/s) have skyrocketed to hit new highs in 2020. According to a report carried out by The Block Research, each bitcoin miner is making $0.19 daily per TH/s of computing power which ranks as the highest amount this year. 

Recall that the last highest figure this year stood at $0.17 sometime in February, when Bitcoin was trading at around $10,500 prior to the halving event. According to the research firm, it uses a 7-day moving average for mining revenue per TH/s.

Aggregating the total revenue accrued, Bitcoin miners made $24.27 million on Dec. 2018. Out of this amount, $21.59 million came from block subsidies and the rest from transaction fees. While the mining reward has maintained an upward trend, the mining difficulty has remained without much change. 

Following the path of Uniswap, DEX aggregator 1inch  has launched a governance token $1inch whose initial supply was airdropped to all users that have interacted with the protocol before 24th December. The token will be the primary utility token on 1INCH exchange and will be used for payment of fees, referral rewards, and other governance issues.

It was estimated that around 50,000 wallets will get the 6% of 1INCH supply in the first round of distribution. The current supply of 1INCH is 1.5 billion tokens.

Similar to Uniswap, 1inch has also announced a liquidity mining program that launched on Dec. 26 for 1INCH liquidity providers. Just as Uniswap’s UNI airdrop boosted activity on that site, CEO Sergej Kunz has upheld the same optimism that the new token will help speed up the growth of 1inch. “With the right community incentives, we see a chance to get a critical mass of liquidity to beat Uniswap,” 

Summing up this week’s crypto highlights is how the overall market picture has witnessed over $647million worth of Bitcoins being moved from small addresses to large addresses, according to analysts at Santiment. This is 100% proof that Bitcoin Whales in the form of High Net worth Individuals, hedge fund managers, and even small to medium institutions are occupying the current BTC supply in the market. 

Extracting a statement on Twitter by Santiment, the on-chain crypto market-data analyst wrote:

“Over the last 48 hours since Christmas, #Bitcoin addresses with 1,000 or more $BTC now own 0.13% more of the supply that smaller addresses did previously. This is about 24,158 tokens, which translates to $647.7M at the time of this writing.”

Despite Bitcoin’s legendary rally to a threefold increase since mid-2020, most Bitcoin whales are reluctant to sell off their stack.  Ki Young Ju, CEO at CryptoQuant noted that fewer whales are depositing to exchanges. “I think this bull-run will continue as institutional investors keep buying and Exchange Whale Ratio keeps below 85%.”

With Bitcoin’s overextended rally, whales are betting that the psychological barrier at $30,000 will possibly break-through. If this happens, options data suggests $36,000 could be a likely target in the near term.

It has always been clear to us that a blockchain project, decentralized by definition, cannot be constrained by a centralized environment. Our decision to go open-source will open up the SaTT ecosystem to various positive possibilities. SaTT aims to benefit from community contributions and exceed our vision and know-how, establishing ourselves as a universal reference.

Leveraging on the premise that most open-source projects like Ethereum, Hyperledger, Solidity, and MetaMask have risen to the center-stage with a lot of contributions from top coders and programmers, going open-source will enable us to scale faster, putting up a fast, secure, tamper-proof, and cost-efficient advertising solution.

SaTT smart advertising system shows much promise, we have already issued our working solution, now on a voyage to implementing a massively large scale POC. With our six-month journey to open-source, the possibilities are endless.

Bitcoin gifts holders a rare Christmas present as it breaks through the $28k area to set a new all-time high before retracing. Hitting fresh highs of $28,400 and closing in on a monthly gain of 55%, Bitcoin is unarguably now on regulators’ radar as its mainstream interest heightens. Even for its proponents, the next year may prove to be a challenging time.

With outgoing Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin leaving his mark with an attempt to force new laws over noncustodial wallets, his replacement, Janet Yellen, may hardly be an improvement, chief strategy officer at digital-asset manager at CoinShares Meltem Demirors commented: 

“Generally, I think we have had challenges with the Dems — they prefer more regulation, more oversight,”

While Bitcoin’s retracement from its most recent all-time high is seen as healthy, most analysts believe Altcoin season could be underway. Cointelegraph Markets analyst Michaël van de Poppe summarized on social media.

“What’s next? Consolidation, sideways action, less volatility. Giving space to the rest of the markets to pace up. $BTC pairs doing well.” 

Van de Poppe is looking at the potential for altcoins to begin their response to Bitcoin’s recent glories. He stated that the signs are already there and that “altseason” is just around the corner.

Recent weeks have seen the SaTT team presenting and showcasing the SaTT digital advertising project on the blockchain in a number of conventions and community meetups in the region, amongst them Blockchain Life 2019, Block Live Asia, World Blockchain Summit Taipei and DLT 101. The team behind SaTT is none other than Atayen, Inc., the iFrames app developer for business pages on Facebook, with an established user base of 4 million that includes internationally known brands like Coca Cola, McDonalds, Disney, Amazon, Nike and Starbucks amongst many others. SaTT, which stands for Smart Advertising Transaction Token, is a utility token that enables advertisers to buy smart advertising services on its Ethereum-based Dapp. All transactions between advertisers and publishers are governed by smart contract which ensures speed, transparency and security, and is cost-efficient. Furthermore, the Dapp uses Oracles that help to quantify the ROI by getting data from 3rd-party API of platforms like Youtube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram etc, to evaluate the performance of all digital actions of the advertising services paid for. Presently, SaTT is proud to announce that it has developed a Youtube Oracle already deployed in several campaigns. Once all criteria have been successfully met, payments are immediate, tamper-proof and not subject to transfer or currency conversion fees, a perfect use case of the ethereum smart contract. Currently the project is in the Top 5 rankings on ICO bench by ratings based on the platform's assessment algorithm together with experts' ratings, and the most rated project of all time.

Smart Advertising Transaction Token, also known as for short, upgraded advertising transactions’ process on the blockchain while removing the high costs associated with launching an ad campaign, reducing payment delays for publishers who rely on ad spend revenues, and injecting some much-needed transparency into the industry with performance based payments. Through SaTT’s decentralized application (dApp), costs are reduced for advertisers and payments are delivered to publishers instantly. Currently it can take 30 to 90 days to get compensated through an affiliate or and traditional campaign while it takes less than 1 minute with SaTT thanks to the Ethereum network and the revolution of smart-contracts. With SaTT companies running ad campaigns receive up-to-date statistics on each post from their publishers and more generally how their ads are performing — providing precious intelligence on what performs, and what doesn’t. It rewards influencers that promote products or services in a fair system. A tool suite that anyone can use easily In order to make the SaTT solution available to everyone, the ’s team has developed a wallet that is easy to use, a simple click to connect with facebook, google or telegram creates a wallet that can stock BTC, ETH, SaTT and other ERC20. The wallet allows you to make simple transactions such as paying or getting paid as easily as sending an email, the interface allows in the same way to interact easily with the dapp and smartcontract. “It was a great challenge for the team to be able to offer such a tool usable by everyone and especially for those with little or no knowledge of blockchain.” Said Gauthier Bros, CEO of Atayen. How can I be compensated for my social media posts? Let’s take an example to describe the process, one of your favourite video game is running a campaign for their users to share with their friends through social networks and are rewarding the best posts based on their performances. First you need to create a post about it on twitter, facebook, instagram or a video on your youtube channel. Once done, you can publish the links of your post on the SaTT interface, it’s as easy as sharing a link on social media, if the post follows advertising terms and is approved by the advertiser, it will be store on the blockchain and you will be able to be paid based on your network performance such as views, likes and shares… When your post make results (example 20 likes and 2,000 views) you can request your payment by clicking the “get paid” button, it will trigger the Oracle (I.E: Oracle: is a small statistics software connected with the smartcontract) which will verify and certify the performance of your post(s)  on the blockchain and automatically process the payment  from advertiser pre-loaded budget  to your wallet. More insights from SaTT According to the company, this creates a win-win situation all round. Advertisers stand to gain an increase in their sales and reputation, publishers get the opportunity to earn much-deserved compensation for compelling content, and oracles developers receive a commission for ensuring that payments are fast and based on true networks performances. What’s the roadmap to disrupt ad markets with blockchain? Several milestones have already been achieved since 2019. In the first quarter, oracles for YouTube, Facebook and Instagram were unveiled, along with a beta version of its smart contract. SaTT’s DApp went live in the second quarter of the year. The first 10 YouTube ad campaigns were successfully completed. Now, Atayen’s team is working to release the API that can allow third party developers to develop their own oracles, by example Tiktok, Linkedin and maximise the adoption of the  SaTT solution on several platforms and spread its tools and utility tokens within the advertising industry. Also, beyond the world of advertising in order to reach a wider adoption, the team has created and installed a pay by SaTT module on facebook store that allows brands to sell directly goods or services with SaTT on the network. While expanding and developing its solutions, the SaTT team continues its funding goals and plans to be listed in major exchanges in the second quarter 2020. The project was able to attract some of the most respected influencers in the blockchain industry, such as Richard Wang, from the Dragon Draper Fund, who kindly accepted the SaTT invitation to join the project board of advisors in order to support in the final phase of their ICO. The digital advertising landscape is continually changing, lately google has announced the end of cookies, and content creators are facing a constant battle to ensure they are fairly paid for their hard work, SaTT is shaking up the industry by solving this issue. Their stance is simple: digital advertising can be faired with blockchain. Discover more about SaTT : Click here The StartupFortune News Department was not involved in the creation of the content.

Senior commodity strategist for Bloomberg Intelligence, Mike McGlone stated today that Bitcoin’s price has the potential to reach $50,000 and that prospects of the digital asset to revisit old highs around $20,000, were diminishing for Bitcoin. The analyst took to Twitter on 7 January and also said that Bitcoin may be a better asset to invest in rather than gold, as of this month. 

According to the financial expert’s analysis in October 2020, Bitcoin could continue appreciating in price and eventually reach the $100,000 milestone by 2025. McGlone based this macro outlook on the asset’s growing popularity, which was also seeing increasing adoption, however at a slower pace, at the time. 

Moreover, on-chain market intelligence firm Glassnode recently suggested that Bitcoin could rally to much bigger figures. The firm correlated current market conditions to the crypto’s earlier price surge in 2017 when Bitcoin increased tenfold.

Contrastingly, financial strategist and founder of Rosenberg Research and Associates Inc, David Rosenberg considers Bitcoin to be in a market bubble at present. The former Merrill Lynch chief economist intends to avoid investing in the crypto, at least for the next twelve months, and instead aimed to invest in the areas that “are not bubbly and that have a lot of catch-up potential.”

Further, where others see Bitcoin as a hedge against inflation, gold advocate and longtime Bitcoin critic Peter Schiff remains unconvinced about the popular crypto. He often refers to the digital asset as a bubble and believes that in the event of inflation, that is when “institutions finally start to worry,” they would rather invest in gold instead of Bitcoin.

Messari co-founder Dan McArdle found that Bitcoin outperformed everything over the last ten years. The digital asset noted 7,837,884% gain in the last decade, while gold returned a 32% profit seen in the image below:

At press time, Bitcoin price is trading at $38,475.46 shortly after the asset breached another ATH at $40,000.

Nachdem Bitcoin nun also die Supports bei 32.000 und 30.000 US-Dollar eingeknickt sind, warnen die Analysten vor einem Rücklauf bis auf 24.000 US-Dollar. Die mögliche Triebfeder hinter dem starken Abschwung sind wohl institutionelle Investoren, die ihre durch den vorherigen Rekordlauf erzielten Gewinne ausbuchen.

Wie Cointelegraph berichtet, bestätigt auch der Guggenheim-Chefinvestor Scott Minerd, dass Bitcoin „für 2021 an eine Decke gestoßen ist“, weshalb es seiner Meinung nach für den Kurs zunächst wieder zurück bis auf 20.000 geht.

Die JPMorgan-Analysten John Normand und Federico Manicardi ergänzen derweil, dass Investoren, die Bitcoin zur Diversifizierung ihrer Portfolios nutzen, „ein Risiko eingehen“, denn die marktführende Kryptowährung wäre vielmehr ein von Natur aus schwankendes Finanzprodukt als ein wertstabiles Absicherungsmittel im Sinne von Gold.

Diese Warnungen scheinen angesichts der momentanen Schwäche von Bitcoin berechtigt, denn für Anleger, die noch übermäßig investiert sind, könnte ein Rücklauf schmerzhaft sein. Der Blick auf die Stimmungslage in den sozialen Medien gibt allerdings Grund zur Hoffnung.

So meint Erik Saberski, Analyst beim Krypto-Marktforschungsinstitut TheTIE, gegenüber Cointelegraph, dass der Marktanteil bzw. die Marktherrschaft von Bitcoin, relativ gesehen, ungebrochen hoch ist (siehe oben).

Daraus schlussfolgert er:

„Zu Beginn des Monats hatten Investoren mit Abverkäufen ihre Gewinne vollständig aus dem Kryptomarkt ausgebucht, doch inzwischen verschieben sie die Erlöse aus ihren Verkäufen in andere Kryptowährungen. Das tägliche Stimmungsbarometer zeigt uns dementsprechend, dass Abschwünge von Bitcoin zuletzt meist immer mit einem Abschwung der Stimmung einhergegangen sind, was aktuell jedoch nicht der Fall ist.“

Wie aus der unteren Grafik ersichtlich wird, bleibt die Stimmung um Bitcoin trotz des momentanen Abschwungs also gleich, was vermuten lässt, dass die Anleger weiterhin optimistisch sind und zurzeit nur Gewinne ausgebucht werden.

Die Finanzmärkte sind derweil durch die bevorstehende Verabschiedung eines weiteren Corona-Hilfspakets der Regierung von Joe Biden wieder im Aufwind.

Sowohl der S&P 500 als auch der NASDAQ haben am gestrigen 21. Januar neue Rekordhochs erzielt, wobei es für die beiden wichtigen Aktienindizes um 0,03 % und 0,82 % nach oben ging. Auch der Dow Jones konnte um 0,04 % hinzugewinnen.

Unter den Top-Altcoins konnte CELO ein sattes Plus von 48,87 % erzielen, wodurch für die alternative Kryptowährung ein Kurs von 3,37 US-Dollar zu Buche steht. Ether (ETH) verliert hingegen 21,28 %, während es für Polkadot um 8 % nach unten geht.

Die Gesamt-Marktkapitalisierung des Kryptomarktes beläuft sich durch diese Entwicklungen „nur noch“ auf 871 Mrd. US-Dollar, wobei ein Marktanteil von 64,3 % auf Branchenprimus Bitcoin entfällt.

A company now offers blockchain-based advertising across major social networks, offering advantages for advertisers and content creators alike. 1366 Total views 165 Total shares Listen to article 0:00 Sponsored A company that aims to change advertising through blockchain announced its decentralized application is now functional across several social networks, including Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and YouTube. The Atayen-owned Smart Advertising Transaction Token, known as SaTT, claims it upgrades the advertising transaction process thanks to blockchain while removing the high costs associated with launching a campaign, reducing payment delays for publishers that rely on revenue, and injecting some much-needed transparency into the industry with performance-based payments. At the same time, this helps remove from the process third parties that inflate costs for everyone, achieves automation and allows brands to assess the performance of campaigns against customizable key performance indicators. Atayen’s CEO, Gauthier Bros, noted that through SaTT’s decentralized application, costs are reduced for advertisers and payments are delivered to publishers instantly. “Currently it can take 30 to 90 days to get compensated through an affiliate or traditional campaign,” Bros emphasized. “It takes less than one minute with SaTT thanks to the Ethereum network and the revolution of smart contracts.”  Companies running campaigns receive up-to-date statistics on each post from their publishers and more generally on how their ads are performing, providing precious intelligence on what works and what doesn’t. In order to make the SaTT solution available to everyone, Atayen’s team says it has developed a wallet that is easy to use. It enables users to store Bitcoin (), Ether (), SaTT and other ERC-20 tokens and to pay or get paid as simply as sending an email. The interface, in the same way, allows users to interact with the DApp and smart contract with ease. “It was a great challenge for the team to be able to offer such a tool usable by everyone, especially those with little or no knowledge of blockchain,” Bros adds.  Smart contracts are at the beating heart of SaTT, which operates on the Ethereum blockchain. Brands that want to promote their products and services can create an ad campaign that will offer SaTT rewards for community or influencer posts on social media. Once users have created a post related to the campaign on their Twitter, Facebook or Instagram accounts or a video on YouTube, they can publish the links to their posts on the ad campaign thanks to the SaTT interface. If the post follows the ad terms and is approved by the advertiser, the publisher will be able to trigger payments based on its network performance such as views, likes and shares, the team explains. As an example, 5,000 SaTT may be offered in exchange for 2,000 views. The smart contract gets data from the third-party application programming interfaces of Facebook, Twitter, Instagram or YouTube, which are called oracles. Oracles will verify and certify the performance of these posts on the blockchain and automatically process the payment from the advertiser’s preloaded budget to the publisher’s wallet.

With the way that consumers access digital content continually changing, and content creators facing a constant battle to ensure they are fairly paid for their hard work, SaTT is hoping to shake up the industry for the better. Its stance is simple: digital advertising can be upgraded with blockchain. Learn more about SaTTDisclaimer. Cointelegraph does not endorse any content or product on this page.
