Just as maximalists assert one blockchain will rule them all, there’s also a pervasive belief amongst many crypto enthusiasts that the technology will replace fiat currencies. It’s a storyline that appears frequently despite the fact that it’s highly implausible. Since the 1970’s when the US stopped the dollar from being backed by gold it’s been a fiat currency.

Continuing our theme of speaking with people in the world of finance and technology we asked insiders at ByteDance in Shanghai their views about blockchain technology. The results give some useful insight into one of the likely narratives of the next bull run. In previous cycles narratives have ranged from Bitcoin being digital gold to NFTs being the cutting edge of the art scene. These topics pull new users into the space and with their added liquidity the value of the market begins to rise. The present decline in value

Blastoise players can finally put out pesky fires in style with the new Holowear set that was just added to Pokémon UNITE.  This new Firefighter Style will give Blastoise the look of a firefighter, complete with an on-duty suit, hard hat, and protective shades. Unlike previous special Holowear, however, this one only applies to Blastoise.  It will give him unique KO and movement animations, but the costume only applies to Blastoise. Squirtle and Wartortle won’t receive any new physical accessories, which is a bummer since this was the perfect opportunity

The Far Cry fandom will be thrilled with some new comments made by the Far Cry 6 world director Ben Hall. The series, known for its over-the-top action, has often received one large criticism–a distinct lack of endgame content. Basically, don’t make the credits roll, because the second they do, everything ends, and there’s no fun left to be had. While it’s long been clear that the sixth installment to the franchise will be huge, some new remarks have us wondering just how long the fun will last. Far Cry

The Pokémon Company is changing a lot with the release of Pokémon TCG Live, including the core mechanics for how players will collect cards, items, and accessories within the digital trading card platform.  Compared to the older Pokémon Trading Card Game Online app, which has been active since May 2012, TCG Live will offer multiple different in-game currencies and a specific way to transfer content over. Players will also be able to transfer almost all of their TCGO content over to TCG Live at launch, with all cards from Sun
