The SEC has been holding steady for years, but the real-world dynamics of crypto adoption and maturation rendered an ETF approval all but inevitable.

I am a bit fuzzy on the details of where and how the protocol's state data could be stored in a…

Launched on the Ethereum network, the LABEL platform has one of the most original governance and incentive mechanisms in the crypto space. Set out to revolutionize the Massive Open Online Course (MOOC) industry with a blockchain-based entertainment-education platform, it has gathered support from major partners. Per an announcement by the LABEL Foundation, the project has successfully completed a $1.0 million private sale round led by HG Ventures with participation from major institutions and leading venture capital investors in the crypto industry. This includes GBIC, Mindfulness Capital, IOST, M6, Adaptive, Icetea Labs, Alphabit, and Pragma. The partners have come together with LABEL to create an innovative new platform to support an NFT infrastructure entertainment-education platform and take the MOOC industry by storm. As mentioned, LABEL is an Ethereum-based worldwide content incubation platform that seeks to create a fairer and transparent ecosystem for content creators. Via this platform users can access top-tier educational material and self-produced content with multiple features and services. The platform has an NFT Market that allows users to trade with LABEL-generated NFTs. In addition, the platform has a DAO governance model supported by a native governance and utility token named LBL. Implemented to drive the growth of the LABEL ecosystem, LBL also operates as the main component in the voting and NFT shareholding reward mechanism. The LABEL Platform And Its Unique Rewards Model LABEL’s unique NFT infrastructure is backed by CLESSON and OPENTRACK, one of the most relevant systematic music education companies based in South Korea. The platform hosts over 200 instructors and 25 top artists from around the globe. This top talent will be part of LABEL’s entertainment-education platform backbone and will bring fresh air to the MOOC model by integrating the artists’ real-life experience in the music industry with the advantages of operating on a decentralized DAO governance model. 6 times Grammy Award winner Robert Sput Searight, 2 times Grammy Award Nominee Scoop DeVille, 3 times Grammy Award winner Mark Lettieri, the producer for one of the biggest music groups BTS Docksim, and many others are some of the names that will participate in the courses operated by the Clesson and further to be brought to the LABEL Foundation. In some cases, the instructors and artists will offer their IP rights on the LABEL platform incubating system. This will enable early investors to receive rewards in the form of NFT shares which can be traded on LABEL’s marketplace or they can hold them for further rewards. The entire system has been designed to protect content creators and their IP rights by minting them as NFTs. In this way, the LABEL community can choose which courses will receive support by using the DAO governance model and the LBL-based voting system. The courses that successfully attract LBL holders’ attention and receive enough votes via staking will be registered on the platform using the ERC-1155 Ethereum NFT standard. This will allow the platform to maintain full transparency by showing the share ratio ownership of voters and investors according to their NFT shares contributed. At any point, investors can withdraw their NFT shares or they can retain them to claim the partial profits generated by the courses. Co-Founder at HG Ventures, a key LABEL Foundation partner, Simon Jeung said the following on the project’s commitment and potential to spearhead a new wave of adoption for cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology: As the lead investors in the LABEL Foundation, we are first and foremost fascinated by the dedication of the core team to the unified goal to revolutionize the entertainment education market by bringing the MOOC industry and blockchain technology together. We believe that NFTs will definitely need the next level of adoption, and the musicians, artists and other content creators that were previously restrained from their legitimate profits will now be able to protect their rightful IP rights in the most innovative NFT infrastructure platform.
Peter Schiff is an economist, gold advocate, and one of Bitcoin’s biggest critics. He has never liked the digital currency. He believes that real value is derived from an asset’s ability to create commercial demand in markets; and always refers to gold as a perfect example of this. In contrast, he says that Bitcoin is nothing but an asymmetric store of value with no other use except attracting an endless supply of buyers for the limited supply of assets. In short, it is a Ponzi scheme. However, he has been proven wrong over and over again. In his most recent critique of Bitcoin, Schiff said it is not a real asset. This was in response to a tweet by Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey about the possible arrival of hyperinflation in the U.S. soon. Schiff Responds To Dorsey On Saturday, October 23, Jack Dorsey shared his opinion on the current economic situation in the U.S on Twitter. He tweeted about the imminent hyperinflation as a result of the constant money printing in the U.S., and how the rest of the world would suffer from it.

Jack Dorsey Says It’ll “Change Everything” In response, Schiff tweeted that people should not look to Bitcoin to save them because it is not a real asset. Instead, they should own real assets like gold. Another Twitter user commented that Bitcoin is, in fact, real. And that it has just surpassed the Swiss Franc in Market cap. At this point, Schiff replied, calling the cryptocurrency a “make-believe asset” and that it is the adult version of an imaginary friend. Peter Schiff’s Grudge with Bitcoin According to this Wikipedia profile, Peter Schiff is an American stockbroker, financial commentator, and radio personality. He is also CEO and chief global strategist of Euro Pacific Capital Inc., a broker-dealer based in Westport, Connecticut. Additionally, he is involved in various roles in other financial services companies, including Euro Pacific Asset Management, an independent investment advisor, Schiff Gold (formerly Euro Pacific Precious Metals), a precious metals dealer, and Euro Pacific Bank, a full-reserve bank. In addition to all these, Schiff is known for something else – his grudge with Bitcoin. He has always claimed its value will one day drop to nothing. Earlier this year, Mark Cuban told Schiff to “move on” because “gold is dead.” In Response, Schiff said, “Mark, a lot of your athletes wear gold jewelry. Ask them why. Gold has many uses outside of jewelry that contributes to its value as a metal. It’s not hyped at all. Gold is money. Bitcoin is 100% hype. It’s nothing.” Related Reading | Mark Cuban Slams Peter Schiff: Gold is Dead, Bitcoin and Ethereum Are Today Cuban himself used to be a bitcoin skeptic, preferring bananas to bitcoin because he claimed he could at least eat a banana. In an interview on Good Evening San Diego a few days ago, Schiff referred to Bitcoin as a fool’s gold and a digital pyramid scheme. He also said that the SEC should not be encouraging people to participate. BTC trading at over $62K | Source: BTCUSD on TradingView.com When asked about the SEC’s recent approval of Bitcoin ETFs, he responded that “we should get rid of the SEC”. He continued by saying, “I have no problem with the ETF itself, but if the SEC is pretending that it is some kind of watchdog and trying to make sure that investors don’t get hurt, then it makes no sense that they would approve this ETF because ultimately, the ETF is going to collapse to zero and the people who are left holding the bag are going to get wiped out.” Schiff is also not impressed with futures ETFs. He says, “instead of owning nothing, you own a futures contract to gamble on nothing.” Featured image by Bloomberg, Chart from TradingView.com
