Ethereum's DeFi tokens are rapidly outpacing Bitcoin
Tokens associated with decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols exploded in value in the past three months, outperforming the wider cryptocurrency market by a wide margin. Over $2 billion worth of Ethereum and Bitcoin has found its way into DeFi protocols already. The second billion of that sum flooded in during just three weeks in June. What’s more, DeFi platforms are now collectively handing out $25 million per month to their users. As a result, the tokens used by these DeFi protocols have grow...

These altcoins are outperforming Bitcoin so far this year
Bitcoin is set to be outperformed by altcoins, especially as banks continue to print money, according to research from crypto investment firm Pantera Capital. In its June Blockchain Letter published Wednesday, the hedge fund said that while an altcoin bull run the size of 2017’s is unlikely to happen again, we are in the midst of a bull market cycle—and we will continue to be in one until next year.

How the blockchain correctly predicted Trump's impeachment
Today, US President Donald Trump has been officially impeached. Yet, the outcome was correctly predicted by a blockchain-based prediction platform, known as Augur, more than a month ago. As Decrypt reported back in mid-November, the odds on the President’s impeachment had changed drastically since the public hearings kicked off. At the time, responding to the market question “Will Donald Trump be impeached by the end of 2019,” Augur bettors predicted a landslide 75% in favor of impeachment. This...

Augur and Synthetix Network lead market revival
Following a week of almost perpetual decline, the cryptocurrency markets appear to be showing signs of relief today, with most major cryptocurrencies experiencing slight gains in the last day. As it stands, Bitcoin SV (BSV), EOS and Maker (DAO) are among the minority of cryptocurrencies that are still in the red, whereas several altcoins are experiencing significant gains. Among the best performers are NEO, NEM, and Dogecoin (DOGE), which are all up between 2-6% apiece, though these gains are co...

Prediction markets place bets on Trump impeachment as hearings start
With the impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump’s actions towards Ukraine kicking off this week, the possibility of the 45th US President being removed from office has inched a step closer. But what are the odds of Trump's impeachment actually happening? Last month, Decrypt peered into the Augur prediction market, upon which Trump's chances of being impeached were hotly contested. Bettors were seemingly ambivalent, with the odds remaining pretty even. Following Wednesday's opening impeachment hea...

The crypto world’s bet on Trump’s impeachment
They predicted Brett Kavanuagh’s ascension to the Supreme Court. They predicted the Democratic victory in the 2018 midterms. And now the bettors on decentralization prediction market “Augur” think that President Donald Trump … might—or might not—be impeached. That’s right: they’re split down the middle! It’s a dead heat right now. Augur is run by a collective of distributed “reporters,” who validate the outcomes of events in lieu of a centralized system. Bettors can gamble on anything without t...

Ethereum-based prediction market Augur sets out plans for 2020 revamp
Prediction market Augur has given a peek into its upcoming platform overhaul at Devcon 5, set to launch in Q1 2020. Teased by founder Joey Krug in an interview with Decrypt earlier this year, Augur v2 will launch with a new betting UI plus 0x and DAI integration. Revealing the news on stage at Devcon 5 in Osaka, Japan, Krug said that, “While Augur may be slow, expensive, and clunky today—that won't be the case much longer”. In the announcement, the Ethereum-based platform revealed that it would...

Augur, the oracle of web3, plans its rise from the ashes
Joey Krug, the co-founder and now intermittent advisor of utterly unregulated betting platform Augur, has some serious complaints about...Augur. “It’s too slow both on the Ethereum and UI side, [it’s too] expensive to use, and the currency is too volatile,” he said in an interview. Indeed, the app barely surpasses 30 users each day, from a high of 250 after Augur’s launch last year. Augur’s “REP” token too, conceived as a way to recompense market participants for running the network, has remain...
