Something New in the ICO/NFT/Airdrop Aggregator Calendar Field

ONTARIO, CA, Nov 22, 2022 – (ACN Newswire) – Nowadays dozens of ICOs take place everyday making it really hard to pick the ones that will give you those precious Xs. Spending loads of time doing research might set you off the track, whereas having too little knowledge will definitely affect your decision effectiveness. It is no surprise, investing in crypto is very risky and people lose money all the time here. That is where aggregator platforms with like minded communities come in handy.

There are multiple ICO/NFT/Airdrop aggregators but they usually focus on one of these three. How that usually works: there is a list of upcoming events, you just scroll and pick the ones that caught your attention with their name or a logo. What if you could get opinions of others on the spot, saving your time and money? Well, I guess there is such a service now – www.hodlers.pro

What would I call Hodlers.pro? A Crypto Investment Social Network. It looks like a modern forum where people discuss different crypto events like ICO/IDO/NFT/Airdrops and more. New projects in amounts of around 3-6 are posted daily. They give you the most important information on a project such as the date of an ICO/mint, price of a token/NFT, exchange, used blockchain type etc. But it isn't just the admins who can post projects – everyone can apply to be featured on their site, all for free! Of course, there's moderation and only the best projects are posted. I see people debating in the comment section, giving the projects ranks, as well as giving meaningful info on how to earn more / get a wl etc. You can also follow any of the threads.

What also impressed me is their Discord. Their server seems very lively with people discussing different topics including relevant crypto news, DeFi and GameFi. Users ask questions and do get answers. Everyone is definitely united by one idea – making more money. Their roadmap says that they are going to implement a rank system to Discord, giving you a higher rank for helping others with their questions. I tried asking some questions about an NFT collection in their Discord and got several answers from multiple users in like 30 seconds! This is something that I have never seen before.

There's also a blog with up-to-date news about cryptocurrencies as well as pretty well thought out analytics. They explain crypto terms in very simple words, so if you are a novice in crypto, getting on the track will certainly become much faster and smoother. As an example, one of their recent blog posts was on the risk to reward ratio. The topic was well explained in very simple language with relevant examples shown. The blog itself deserves a place in your bookmarks, that's how good it is!

What we understood from their roadmap is that at some point of the project development they will mint their own token $HODL on Fantom blockchain. Users will be rewarded for insightful and valuable comments in $HODL. However, keep in mind that you won't be able to abuse the system – a moderator will be checking all incoming comments, which is surely a nice feature that will prevent the project from becoming a huge spam pit. A rank system will be added to the site as well. Not sure if the rank on Discord and the site will be connected though I would suppose so. All the information about ranks, experience of community members and the voting algorithm of the website will obviously be stored on the blockchain.

Another great feature that we noticed, while exploring their roadmap is the ad system. A project will be able to run ads on their site, increasing exposure. A feedback widget, a fully customisable launch page and the ability to organize the mint of your own tokens will also be added to the site. Allowing people to make money from the website would make projects invest in the project's tools, thus creating a perfect money loop, where everyone stays profitable. We have already seen many examples of projects failing just because they lacked that.

Mobile devices weren't left out either – Hodlers.pro will appear as an application in the Apple Store/Google Play, making the use of all the features, such as communication, voting, investing and receiving urgent notifications even more convenient and therefore significantly increasing the project's audience!

If anything above got you interested in Hodlers.pro then I would recommend you to keep an eye on their Discord announcements – https://discord.gg/hodlerspro , since their 5,555 NFTs are coming real soon! Each NFT will differ in appearance and rarity. Happy owners (I'm minting) of these NFTs will get free access to the website in the future. Holders were also said to have a privileged role on the site and the Discord server, unlike other roles, whose access will be partially restricted.

The project we have here is something fresh that will benefit creators, investors and project owners big time. Having someone that you can discuss your future investments with is priceless. With the upcoming NFT collection Hodlers.pro is surely a product that if you pay close attention to, could bring you income right from the start.

MRHB: Exclusive Web3 Partner of World Halal Summit, Mints Soulbound NFTs for Attendees

DUBAI, Nov 22, 2022 – (ACN Newswire) – MRHB.Network, the world's first decentralized finance platform devoted to halal crypto asset solutions, is joining the World Halal Summit as an official Web3 partner and will be providing 'soulbound tokens' (SBT) for the thousands of expo attendees.



The World Halal Summit, taking place this year from November 24-27, 2022, is the largest halal conference in the world – the last World Halal Summit attracted over 31 thousand attendees from 96 different nations. The conference is held annually in Istanbul, Turkey, and is focused on contemporary challenges and opportunities in the halal industry. This year's primary theme is "For a Sustainable Trade: Explore All the Aspects of the Halal Industry". Topics that will be covered at the summit's many keynote addresses and panel discussions include current trends in the halal sector and new directions in the halal market.

"We have always been big supporters of halal expos around the world, and are proud to be Official Partner of the World Halal Summit this year," said MRHB DeFi CEO and founder Naquib Mohammed. "There has been tremendous interest in crypto and digital assets by Muslim communities in recent years. MRHB is the world's first Web3 platform offering decentralized financial services that are truly halal from the ground up and we are truly grateful for the opportunity to share these solutions with the community of the World Halal Summit."

Notable speakers at this year's World Halal Summit include the Head of the Turkish government's Department of Participation Finance, the Acting Department Head of the Turkish Halal Accreditation Agency, and the Director of the Turkish government's Department of Participation Finance. Dozens of other speakers from a wide variety of industries and countries will also be present.

Get Soulbound NFT Tickets Minted by MRHB DeFi

As the exclusive Web3 partner of World Halal Summit, MRHB (pronounced 'Marhaba') is the sole producer of NFT tickets to the event. The NFT tickets are more than just collectible pictures – they provide real utility as verifiable proof that the conference-goers have purchased tickets to the World Halal Summit.

MRHB is minting NFT tickets which are soulbound tokens – non-transferrable NFTs that cannot be sold or traded with other people. Originally conceived by Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, soulbound tokens act as identity and reputation tokens in a decentralized society.

USD10K worth of Gold tokens to be won on TijarX Gold Rush

To celebrate their newly launched commodities exchange TijarX, MRHB DeFi is also awarding a total of US$10 thousand in Gold Standard ($AUS) halal tokenized gold to lucky winners of their 'Gold Rush' Campaign. To participate and have a chance to win physical gold-backed tokens (ticker 'AUS'), users must purchase a minimum of US$100 worth of AUS on TijarX, MRHB DeFi's decentralized commodities exchange or DEX. The gold tokens are backed by the physical gold bars held in the vaults of MRHB's regulated (since 1974) bullion partner – Ainslee Bullion.

TijarX can be accessed on Sahal Wallet, a multi-chain, multi-asset self-custodial halal crypto wallet available on iOS and Android. Prizes will be distributed in AUS as follows:

– $5K prize to the highest AUS net buyer
– $3K prize to the second-highest AUS net buyer
– $1K prize to the third-highest AUS net buyer
– 10 X $100 prizes to 10 lucky draw winners

Follow MRHB on Twitter ( https://twitter.com/marhabadefi ) to get the latest updates on the trading contest.

The MRHB Vision: Empowering, Ethical and Easy

MRHB DeFi's halal decentralized finance platform empowers the world's 1.8 billion Muslims and those looking for a more ethical gateway into the opportunities of web3 and digital assets, The Islamic Finance market is US$3 trillion in size and promotes ethical, transparent and fair business practices .

"The cryptocurrency space is a risky place with limited or no halal crypto asset options," Naquib said. "I founded MRHB DeFi to be a one-stop-solution for users searching for more ethical and non-interest-based approaches to DeFi solutions. I am confident our TijarX Gold Rush campaign will attract summit attendees who are looking for an easy way to invest in physical gold, silver and crypto assets via their phone."

Sahal Wallet acts as a super App for all of MRHB DeFi's halal finance services, including the SouqNFT marketplace – where World Halal Summit NFTs are minted and halal compliance NFT certificates are also hosted – as well as the TijarX commodities exchange, home to tokenized precious metals by Gold and Silver Standard. Every token and product on the platform undergoes a strict halal vetting procedure to ensure all assets are Shariah compliant. The world's first halal crypto income and staking solution will both launch in the next few months, with four more launches scheduled for 2023 including interest-free financing, decentralized philanthropy (DePhi), an entrepreneur launchpad and decentralized autonomous governance.

The company launched their $MRHB token last December in an oversubscribed IDO, raising over US$4.5 million. The majority of their investors came from their enthusiastic community of over 70 thousand ethics-conscious supporters from 106 different countries. The company has since gone on to win the 2022 Global Brand Awards as the "Best New Islamic Crypto Platform". Nasdaq and InvestorPlace have also featured the MRHB token as a "killer crypto" to invest in.

MRHB DeFi is supported by a number of partners and investors, including Polygon Technology, Sheesha Finance, Australian Gulf Capital, NewTribe Capital, Blockchain Australia, Mozaic, Contango Digital Assets, ZKSync, Acreditus Partners, EMGS Group, Sinofy Group, Sukhavati Protocol and MKD Capital, amongst others.

Moonstake Receives ssv.network Grant to Integrate Decentralized ETH Staking

SINGAPORE, Nov 16, 2022 – (ACN Newswire) – Today, Moonstake is pleased to announce we have secured a staking pool integration grant from the DAO-governed SSV Network to integrate ETH staking on the Moonstake Wallet. Moonstake will be integrating SSV's unique architecture to bolster Ethereum decentralization and ensure Moonstake's validator infrastructure is as robust as possible. This will enable a seamless decentralized ETH staking experience for global users, and Moonstake and SSV will also work together to promote our ecosystems through this collaboration.



The ssv.network Grants Program is a community-led initiative to fund development teams building decentralized staking applications and services with the intent of promoting and accelerating development and innovation by developers building on top of the network. Proposals to the grant are evaluated on the technical design of the project, the overall quality of the team and its community, and more. Moonstake is thrilled to join the SSV Network Grants Program as a verified top 10 staking provider worldwide and soon support ETH staking.

As of 15 September 2022, Ethereum has officially become a Proof of Stake blockchain and the demand for ETH staking is higher than ever. Currently, ETH holders must have 32 ETH and build their own validator infrastructure in order to stake, which requires a high level of technical expertise and maintain a costly infrastructure. Alternatively, non-tech users could stake their ETH by relying on a custodian staking-provider service or centralized exchange. Moonstake and SSV aim to address this issue by providing users with a non-custodial ETH staking solution via Moonstake Wallet using SSV's innovative technological infrastructure. We are proud to uphold our commitment of providing the best staking experience for users worldwide, as well as to finally take the next big step in our promised support plan for the Ethereum Merge and PoS ETH.

Mitsuru Tezuka, Founder at Moonstake, says: "Moonstake is happy to have received this grant from the SSV Network and partner up for ETH staking integration. The demand for ETH staking is higher than ever, yet users can only rely on custodial solutions at the moment which takes away from the decentralized experience of crypto and could potentially lead to many security risks. As a verified top 10 staking provider worldwide, we hope to be able to bring even more value to crypto users worldwide by providing a seamless ETH staking experience using SSV's robust technology. We look forward to growing the Moonstake, SSV, and Ethereum staking ecosystems together, as well as promoting the staking industry as a whole through this great partnership."

Moonstake started the staking business in 2020 with the aim to create the largest staking network in Asia. Since then, we have developed the most user-friendly Web Wallet and Mobile Wallet (iOS / Android) with support for over 2000 cryptocurrencies. After a full-scale operation launched in August 2020, Moonstake's total staking assets have grown rapidly to reach $1 Billion, allowing Moonstake to become one of the top 10 staking providers globally. Currently, Moonstake supports 17 leading PoS assets including Cosmos, IRISnet, Ontology, Harmony, Tezos, Cardano, Qtum, Polkadot, Quras, Centrality, Orbs (Ethereum and Polygon), IOST, TRON, Shiden, FIO, Everscale, and Oasis. Proof of Stake ETH will be the 18th staking coin supported by Moonstake once technical integration is completed.

SSV is a fully decentralized open Ethereum staking infrastructure. It provides an open architecture for anyone who wants to run an Ethereum validator; from individual users to staking pools and large institutional staking services. The SSV Network aims to address the main concerns faced with Ethereum staking which include: custody and management of private keys, liveliness and redundancy, single point of failure, security and encryption, as well as decentralization and network governance.

Moonstake is the world's leading staking service provider that develops and operates decentralized wallet services for businesses and individuals.

About Moonstake's staking business

For the staking industry, which has grown into a 630-billion dollar market as of September 2021, Moonstake provides a decentralized staking service that does not require user deposits, and supports nodes around the world in addition to its own validator nodes. Moonstake currently supports the staking of 17 blockchains. With a total staking assets of 1.8 billion USD and a global user base, the company ranked third out of more than 10,000 providers worldwide in June of the same year.

About SSV Network

Secret Shared Validators (SSV) is the first secure and robust way to split an Ethereum validator key between non-trusting nodes. The nodes do not need to trust each other to carry out their validator duties, and a certain number can be offline without affecting validator performance. The result is a reliable, decentralized, secure infrastructure for Ethereum staking.

SSV Network is the decentralized staking infrastructure running the SSV protocol that enables the distributed operation of an Ethereum validator. It is also a reusable and scalable ETH staking infrastructure developers can use to build new staking apps and deploy them quickly and easily. https://ssv.network/

What is SOL? Everything You Need to Know about Solana

SINGAPORE, Nov 14, 2022 – (ACN Newswire) – Welcome to this edition of 101 article exploring one of the staking coins on Moonstake. This time, we'll be looking at Solana and its native coin SOL, which has grown rapidly since its inception just a few years ago and is now one of the most popular cryptocurrencies on the market, referred to by many crypto experts as one of the "Ethereum killers".



What Makes Solana Unique?
Originally launched in 2020, Solana is a layer-1 blockchain that focuses on scalability, speed, cost minimization, and energy-efficiency. Solana's innovative infrastructure maintains a single global state between different ecosystems as the network scales, eliminating the need to rely on fragmented layer-2 systems or sharded chains.

Most notably, Solana is committed to providing a fast and low-cost experience to both users and developers. It promises an admirable sub 0.01 USD transaction fee and merely 0.001 seconds in transaction processing time. Even after the transition to Proof of Stake (PoS), transaction cost and speed remains a concern amongst Ethereum users. Therefore, Ethereum rivals are focused on solving these issues, and Solana stands out as one of the most competitive alternatives to the world's second largest blockchain.

For the consensus algorithm, Solana implements an innovative hybrid model of PoS that combines a unique timestamp-based Proof of History (PoH) algorithm with a high-speed synchronization system. This allows transactions to be validated much faster, reducing the load of the Solana network and increasing its bandwidth, in other words, scalability.

How Did Solana Become Popular?
Solana saw a meteoric rise in value in fall 2021 due to a boom in NFT sales and widespread awareness of its utilities, most notably after the launch of the Wormhole 2.0 update that heightened interoperability with other high-value blockchains. The project also supports an array of DeFi platforms as well as NFT marketplaces.

Thanks to the network's high efficiency in speed, costs, and capacity, as well as an enticing staking ecosystem, Solana has become one of the most popular blockchains for DApp developers and staking users. It now sits in the ranking of the top 10 cryptocurrencies in terms of market capitalization.

Solana's Technical Milestones and Why Moonstake Supports SOL
At Moonstake, we work to support the most demanded coins on the market. Here are some key milestones of Solana so far:
– From 2018 – 2019, Solana raised over 20 million for the SOL token sale to investors, despite the relatively bearish market situation after the 2017 crypto bubble.
– During the NFT craze in 2021, Solana was home to the popular Degenerate Ape Academy NFT, a collection of 10,000 apes which sold out in less than 10 minutes.
– By August 2021, over 400 projects have been built on Solana, just a little over a year since its launch. Many DeFi projects are building on Solana to take advantage of its powerful and cost-effective infrastructure.
– In September 2021, Solana launched its Wormhole 2.0 protocol that enabled the transfer of digital assets between ERC-20 and SPL blockchains. This is believed to be one of the main factors that contributed to the rise of Solana.
– Currently, Solana has over 3,400 validators to help secure and decentralize the network and is currently competing with other emerging Ethereum competitors such as Polygon and Polkadot. It has been stably sitting at rank #10 on Coinmarketcap.

We can see that SOL is a high-demand coin and Solana network is an esteemed blockchain project with active, constant development and support both from its creators and lively developer community. This makes SOL a great and strategic addition to the lineup of PoS coins supported by Moonstake and we are working hard to bring SOL staking to you very soon.

How SOL Staking Work
On Solana, tokens in a stake account must be delegated to a validator. A single stake account can only be delegated to a single validator at any time, so if you want to delegate to different validators you will need to split your tokens between multiple stake accounts.

To stake SOL tokens, you must use a wallet that supports staking. SOL tokens in your wallet must first be moved into a stake account. You can create as many stake accounts as you like, and deposit as much or as little SOL into each stake account as you want. Each new stake account has a unique address, and a single wallet can manage or "authorize" many different stake accounts.

How To Get Rewards for SOL Staking
SOL staking has historically yielded around 6% APY, though as usual this number will fluctuate depending on network activity. Staking rewards are computed and issued once per epoch which is approximately 2 days. However, to begin earning rewards, you must first wait for two epochs (around 4 days).

Rewards accrued in a given epoch are issued to all validators and delegators in the first block of the following epoch. Rewards are issued once per epoch and deposited into the stake account that earned them.

Stake rewards are automatically re-delegated as active stake. If the rewards due to a validator or one of their stakes is less than one lamport for a given epoch, reward issuance is deferred until the next epoch in which both would receive at least one lamport. A lamport is a fractional native token with the value of 0.000000001 SOL.

How SOL Unstaking Works
Tokens can only be withdrawn from a stake account when they are not currently delegated. When a stake account is first un-delegated, it is considered "deactivating" or "cooling down". Tokens may not be withdrawn from the account until some or all of them have finished deactivating and are considered "inactive" and therefore no longer earning any potential staking rewards.

Once the tokens in a stake account are inactive, they can be withdrawn back to your main wallet address or to another address immediately. Tokens in a stake account with a lockup may not be withdrawn until the lockup expires, regardless of the delegation state of that account. Once the lockup expires, undelegated tokens may be withdrawn immediately. There is no action required by the account holder to specifically unlock the account.
