Beyond being a mere aspiration, decentralization serves as the lifeblood of the crypto world, standing as the pivotal force that draws the line between freedom and control.

In an era where decentralized finance (DeFi) promises revolutionary, permissionless, and credit-check-free access to financial services, the limitations to its application lie in the narrow range of digital assets it encompasses.

For instance, in collaboration with the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), Ripple is embarking on a research project to try and tokenize real estate. This venture was made public about seven weeks ago as part of a broader initiative, the digital

Like a slow-mo roundhouse kick to the noggin, The Matrix totally rocked the cinematic landscape when it released back in 1999. Blending hyper-stylish Hong Kong martial arts cinema with the heady, philosophical cyberpunk literature of Philip K.

It doesn’t get much worse than Gambit losing a one-vs-four to cadiaN and Heroic that won the Danish side ESL Pro League season 13. But Liquid’s one-vs-five collapse in the quarterfinals of season 14, also to Heroic, is a strong contender. Trailing 12-3 at halftime on Inferno, map three of a playoff series, Liquid pulled off a tremendous comeback on the CT side. They won 12 of

There is no question that the recent pandemic has had long-lasting effects on the world. It was completely unprecedented, and no one was prepared for the changes that it brought. Multi-million-dollar businesses were forced to close and, for some time, the world simply stopped spinning. For many, the prospect of their favourite entertainment venues being closed and having to remain inside their home was too much and had consequences on their mental health. Things that were taken for granted, like going to the movies or the shopping mall, were soon
