Tech companies like Meta and Microsoft are betting big on the metaverse. But what exactly is the metaverse? It's more complicated, older, and less inevitable than it sounds.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst The beauty of the concept of the Metaverse is that anything and everything can take place in it. Gamers and Fortnite users already have got a verterla experience of it. The immersive experience is in he future yet, once the tech has been solved, and right now is the time to enthusiastically debate, build, evolve, criticise (its ethical and moral boundaries, f.i.), invest and get profit. Yes, there are those who say this is not going to happen. Well, even Internet started like this.

The International Monetary Fund is warning that the new Omicron coronavirus variant is likely to delay the global economic recovery from the pandemic. The fund is expecting to downgrade its forecasts for world growth this year and next. That's even though the World Health Organization says it has no evidence yet of any deaths connected to Omicron.
The new variant is spreading rapidly in many countries. South Africa in particular is seeing an alarming wave of infections. More young children are being hospitalized, and authorities are concerned that people who've already had COVID-19 are being reinfected.
Healthcare workers in South Africa have their hands full since scientists there first detected the Omicron variant last week. And it's been found across South Africa.
Just a quarter of the population has been fully vaccinated. But it is not clear yet how far the current vaccines protect against an infection with Omicron.
South Africa's public health authorities warn that more children and young adults are being hospitalized with the coronavirus.
Many countries have placed new restrictions on travelers from South Africa, and even shut borders. And the Scientists who alerted the world to the Omicron variant are facing a backlash at home.
Face masks are mandatory, and there are limits on the number of people who can attend indoor and outdoor gatherings. But Omicron continues its invisible race across South Africa.-
Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Again another twist in the Pandemic history and narrative. Omicron variant has been a reason for politicians to just act on fears and panic, trying to make people more compliant. The science behind it is becoming less and less important, while some narratives strengthen, including the one where only bad things come from Africa (even though it seems the variant was already present globally some weeks before). It's a pity that a global health scare is becoming entangled with politics, economic interests and even conspiracy theories. Hoping for the best, anyway.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Bitcoin is in a bubble. Fine. What's not a bubble nowadays? In pandemic times, with global economy issues, job markets struggling, supply chain problems, commodities becoming volatile too.... what about the USD value? It's good to understand what we are living, and act accordingly. How to invest when there is a bubble? By being informed, aware and using common sense.

Welcome to The Daily Forkast, December 3rd, 2021, presented by Megha Chaddah. For the latest in blockchain & crypto news. On today's show:
00:00 Coming Up
01:18 BadgerDAO suffers US$120 million exploit.
02:00 Showing off NFTS a security risk.
04:27 AussieMates to raise mental health awareness with NFT project.

Local financial authorities in Beijing have announced the release of another batch of e-CNY coupons to promote adoption of the digital yuan and as rehearsal for the Winter Olympics, which open on February 4th. The coupons will be issued by China's four state owned banks and can be used for public transport, in supermarkets, laundries and bookstores, as well as for express deliveries. The Winter Olympics are seen as a key test scenario for stepping towards introducing the e-CNY globally, with authorities hoping that athletes from around the world can use it then.
BadgerDAO, which focuses on bringing Bitcoin to a DeFi, has suffered an exploit with estimated losses of US$120 million US dollars. Badger Dao said on Thursday that it had received reports of unauthorized use of money withdrawals and that smart contracts would be paused while the issue was investigated. Data forensics experts and analysis are now exploring the full scale of the incident. According to CoinMarketCap, Badger Dao's native Badger token fell 19% by Friday morning Asia time.
Shifting gears, though, as we enter the world of disintermediation where we explore how disruption has created new rules of engagement. To help us out is Adrian Brink, co-founder of Anouma, a sovereign proof of stake protocol that replaces money by enabling asset agnostic cash and championing privacy.
Megha: Speaking of privacy, this next issue; I bet very few people are even aware of how vulnerable they are when one discloses they own a certain NFT, maybe a particular Cryptokitty or a Bored Ape. Is it just an innocent digital bragging, or are you actually setting yourself up as a target for hackers?
Adrian: I wouldn't say so much as you're setting yourself up for hackers. You are just disclosing your entire financial history, potentially to whoever you're showing this Bored Ape to. This is an identifiable thing. I look at the Ape, and I go, well, I know this Ape. This allows me to look up the specific address that currently owns the Ape. In the best case, this address only owns the Ape. But predominantly what actually happens is that people reuse addresses all the time. And so all of a sudden, I not only see which Ape you own, but ultimately other NFT own, or how much ETH own, how much ETH you've owned in the past. I mean, you used to see what kind of trades you do.
Megha: So how do you make these purchases more secure and frankly, keep them anonymous, the way most people believe cryptocurrency is supposed to be?
Adrian: No one should ever believe that cryptocurrencies are anonymous because currently they aren't. Like none of the existing systems, so is Bitcoin or Ethereum or any of the other near Solana doesn't really matter. None of them are private.The one thing you could be doing is minimizing the amount of information that the world has about you. So, for example, what you could be doing is you go to Kraken and you withdraw some ETH, then use that to a completely new address. Then you use that ETH to buy the NFT that you want to own, and you only use that address for that NFT and nothing else. And it means that only now Kraken knows how much you hold.
The Aussie made NFT project will offer wellbeing support to owners of its kangaroo base NFT collection. Much of the world has faced times under varying levels of lockdown over the past couple of years, and the spread of the Omicron variant has raised that threat once again. Australia's pandemic regimes have been particularly strict as of October, Melbourne holds the world record for the most time spent in lockdown. A total of 262 days. And globally collective mental health has been severely impacted, with the OECD reporting that the prevalence of anxiety, depression and mental distress has doubled in some countries. Aussie Mates is aiming to raise both awareness and funds to address the issue with its "down under" themed NFT series in partnership with mental health nonprofit Livin. The collection of 10,000 unique kangaroo NFTs inspired by elements of Australian culture is to go on sale early next year. After that, owners known as "Downunder Club" members will be able to access Livin's virtual health workshops, resources and early prevention and intervention initiatives. It's "Livin Well" program is based on the mantra "it ain't weak to speak". It aims to break down stigma while encouraging people to seek help. According to EY, 79% of participants in the program said it helped them make positive changes to their wellbeing.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst We are convinced that in Web.3 a key element will be Identity and Privacy. With new assets an ideas turning into new digital ecosystems, we have to be very careful on how we accept decentralisation and how we protect our own privacy both in real and digital spheres. NFTs are an example of it. So many people have been hacked and their wallets emptied just because they haven't thought on how to protect themselves by using different Eth addresses or handle crypto wallets properly.

Bitcoin breaks below 50K... what could this mean for BTC's uptrend? Bitcoin just recently broke below the psychological support of 50K. It also broke below another key level, the weekly 21 EMA - a strong support level. We have seen before that the weekly 21 EMA can be a very important level that price needs to hold in order for the uptrend to continue. What could the recent break down in bitcoin mean? Are we seeing sign of capitulation? What are the key risk levels and resistance levels we need to watch? We look at the charts. #Bitcoin #BTC #AlessioRastani

ConstitutionDAO tried and failed to purchase one of 13 copies of the U.S. Constitution at Thursday's Sotheby's auction. The decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) 's $40+ million in ETH wasn't enough to seal the deal and was ultimately outbid by another buyer for $43.2 million. "The Hash" hosts discuss DAOs in the mainstream in the potential conclusion to the ConstitutionDAO saga.

CNBC's Steve Kovach joins Shep Smith to report on ConstitutionDAO, a group that has raised millions of dollars in cryptocurrencies to buy a copy of the U.S. Constitution. For access to live and exclusive video from CNBC subscribe to CNBC PRO: https://cnb.cx/2NGeIvi
A consortium of crypto investors pulled together $47 million worth of ether in a week to try to buy a rare, first-edition copy of the U.S. Constitution at a Sotheby’s auction — and lost. What happens to all that cash is up to the people.
The group, known as ConstitutionDAO, wrote in its ‘frequently asked questions’ that the funds would be redeemable, minus a transaction fee.
ConstitutionDAO contributor Alice Ma confirmed to CNBC that they would “for sure...provide everyone an option for a refund.” Ma went on to say that “there are many people who have already said they want to leave their funds in the wallet, and we are deciding between several options internally for that scenario!”
On a Twitter Spaces following the lost bid, it was unclear where exactly the money would go next. Some members of the DAO shared plans to potentially purpose the funds toward future auctions.
Member Liz Yang, chiming in from on board an American Airlines plane, said that she hoped to put the money to good use. “I feel like we set the bar so high,” said Yang. “We need to do something equally as epic, whether it’s a future auction, but that’s for the people to decide.”
In theory, next steps will be determined by the “decentralized autonomous organization” that facilitated the fundraise. You can think of a DAO like a group of individuals acting in concert with no single leader. Unlike a normal pool of investors, DAOs rely on cryptocurrency technology to track and validate participation in the group, as well as to facilitate the inner-workings of how to raise and distribute large amounts of cash.
ConstitutionDAO’s rallying call was “WAGBI” or “we’re all gonna buy it.” But in fact, the thousands of investors who comprise this DAO would not have received fractional ownership of the document. Instead, they would have become holders of a crypto token known as “People” that would have granted them certain voting rights over the future of the document.
“Everyone who buys in, they get a portion of the governance token of the DAO, and they can then use that token to vote on where the Constitution should actually be custodied,” Ma told CNBC prior to the auction. The crypto contingent had been weighing different museums and libraries across the country, including the Smithsonian and the New York Public Library.
Many wondered why organizers stopped short of making the winning offer in a heated bidding war that gaveled at $41 million.
One organizer in the group’s Discord server said that they stopped the bidding where they did because there wouldn’t have been enough money left over to account for the “proper care and maintenance” required for custody of the Constitution.

The market for non-fungible tokens, or NFTs, is soaring, reaching $10.7bn in the third quarter of 2021. For the art world it's a new frontier, where ownership of digital assets is encrypted on the blockchain. The FT talks to artists, auction houses and collectors about how NFTs are bringing in new buyers and setting records for sales of digital works, and we follow a painter making his first NFT.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Art is creation, looking for aesthetics, or disruption, or... so many things. That's why art int he digital world, translated into NFTs, Non Fungible Assets, are so hot now, as they represent a new path to creation, and for collection. Independently of the business model, which is just starting and evolving, it's fascinating how much debate, passion and transformation NFTs are provoking.

In recent years, a trend known as NFTs, or non-fungible tokens have taken the art scene by storm. The market has seen explosive growth in 2021 with celebrities like Tom Brady, Snoop Dogg and Grimes jumping into the market. In October, Sotheby’s and Coinbase also announced their intentions in launching their own NFT specific marketplaces. But NFT’s astonishing success has also led to deep skepticism. So just how do non-fungible tokens work and is it an asset worth investing in?

Can You Make Money From NFTs?-
Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Are NFTs a real business opportunity or mere speculation? Are sceptics right about NFTs being just a speculative model copying gamers´ markets where one can buy, sell and trade game items in a digital market? What is a real NFT and what's just a speculative item? This NFT world is just starting and that's why we can see all the god and bad there, from scammers to real works of art, expression and innovation. Those who go there to speculate will probably lose everything. Those who use time, energies and knowledge to become connoisseurs will profit, not just on financial terms, but on a mental and even spiritual level, as owning a real world work of art.

According to InsiderScore, CEOs and insiders have unloaded $69 billion in stocks so far this year, up 80% over the 10-year average. CNBC's Robert Frank reports. For access to live and exclusive video from CNBC subscribe to CNBC PRO: https://cnb.cx/2NGeIvi
CEOs and corporate insiders have sold a record $69 billion in stock in 2021, as looming tax hikes and lofty share prices encourage many to take profits.
From Satya Nadella at Microsoft to Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk, CEOs, founders and insiders have been cashing in their stock at the highest pace on record. As of Monday, sales by insiders are up 30% from 2020 to $69 billion, and up 79% versus a 10-year average, according to InsiderScore/Verity, which excludes sales by large institutional holders.
The selling is likely to increase even more as December is often an active month for sales due to tax planning.
While some market watchers see insider selling as a warning sign and signal of a market top, many of the stocks sold by the insiders — including Tesla and Amazon — have continued to surge after the selling. And most of the stocks were sold as part of prescheduled selling plans, known as 10b5-1 programs.
The bulk of this year’s sales have been highly concentrated among a few large sellers, including Musk and Bezos, who each sold around $10 billion in stock this year. Ben Silverman, director of research at InsiderScore/Verity said the top four “super sellers” — Musk, Bezos, the Waltons and Mark Zuckerberg — account for 37% of this year’s total.
“The increase in the dollar value of insider sales in 2021 can be attributed to multiple factors, with historically high stock valuations being the primary driver,” he said. “The presence of ‘super sellers’ during the period has help pump up sales total.”
Musk sold another $1.05 billion in Tesla stock last week as part of his options exercise and tax payments. His sales since his famous Twitter poll on Nov. 6 now total $9.85 billion, with about half for options-related taxes and the rest for a straight cash-out.
Jeff Bezos sold a total of $9.97 billion in Amazon stock this year. While his activity is roughly in line with his stock sales last year, they are four times larger than his sales in 2019 and far higher than his sales of $1 billion a year in earlier years. Filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission show the sales are part of a 10b5-1 plan.
The Walton family has sold $6.18 billion in Walmart stock this year through their family trust and investment vehicle. The family sells shares periodically to maintain their ownership levels and to fund their philanthropic efforts. Mark Zuckerberg has sold $4.47 billion in Meta stock this year as part of a 10b5-1 plan. Google founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin have each sold about $1.5 billion of their Alphabet shares as part of 10b5-1 plans.
Beyond the scheduled selling programs, however, taxes and high valuations are also fueling the sales. Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella sold off nearly half of his Microsoft shares last month for about $285 million. The company said in a statement that the sale was for “personal financial planning and diversification reasons.”
But Nadella will also save on taxes by selling now rather than next year. Starting Jan. 1, the state of Washington will impose a 7% tax on capital gains over $250,000. Nadella could save up to $20 million in state taxes by selling ahead of the tax hike. Bezos could save up to $700 million in Washington state taxes because he sold before January.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst This past month we have witnessed how CEOs and there financial and company leaders have sold shares in big numbers, although in the big picture is just a drop in the ocean. Every time this happens we have to see the basic reasons why, like that the end of fiscal year (taxes!) is coming, but also other reasons such as the actual economic situation, the high valuation of many big companies, and scheduling of selling shares or complying with the stock options time periods, planned before hand. 2021 is going to be complicated, financially speaking.

Richard Bernstein, Richard Bernstein Advisors, joins 'Closing Bell' to discuss why he disagrees with Cathie Woods's comments that we currently aren't in a bubble.-
Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Is tech and crypto living in a bubble? Well, maybe. Well, why not? Irrational exuberance is a sign of the attention and interest of innovation being developed and later executed. This is why we can see from ambitious and visionary ideas which disrupt and change the world, to real scammers where many just bury their money. Humans are not machines or robots, and we act on our likes, dislikes and feelings too. The bubble can burst suddenly or slowly, but it will do it one day. Then the tech and crypto will have evolved, and developed a new path.

Welcome to The Daily Forkast, December 1st, 2021, presented by Angie Lau. For the latest in blockchain & crypto news. On today's show:
00:00 Coming Up
00:36 India crypto bill description described as misleading.
01:58 Shiba Inu coin and Terra token Luna on a tear.
03:26 K-pop industry betting on digital assets.
---
First up, according to former Indian Finance Secretary Subhash Garg, the description of the country's crypto bill is misleading. In an interview with local media, Garg, who drafted the shelved 2019 bill that called for a ban on cryptocurrencies, said the draft of the new bill is not ready and hence it was a mistake to mention that private cryptocurrencies will be banned. He went on to say that the government needs to understand the vast crypto world and use cases for cryptocurrencies in order to form a comprehensive bill.
Now over in Korea, internet giant Naver's metaverse operating subsidiary Naver Z has raised over US$180 million in a Series B round. Around US$150 million of that came from Japan's SoftBank, while K-pop industry names like HYBE, YG and JYP Entertainment also took part. Naver Z says the funding will help it focus on expanding its global services, and it says its metaverse, Zepeto has already 200 million users. 80% by the way, who are teenagers.
A couple of big moves have caught our eye this week after maintaining strong price action over the weekend, despite a market wide sell off. Terra's Luna hit an all-time-high of US$59.63 Wednesday morning Asia time. And it is not the only token riding high. Shiba Inu coin got a shot in the arm, following its listing on global crypto exchange Kraken. According to CoinMarketCap, Shiba Inu leapt 47% after listing. With Kraken telling Forkast.News there was a lot of interest in the coin. And that it is now past the exchange's lengthy due diligence process. Meanwhile, an expert says the Terra is one of a number of stablecoin projects that've been getting a lot of attention as they grow their use cases. He also says there is value in stablecoin projects as they can connect users with decentralized finance and allow seamless cross-border payments. Bitcoin hasn't fared quite so well, suffering a minor blip around the time, Fed Chair Jerome Powell said the risk of higher inflation has increased. However, the expert says Bitcoin remains an incredibly strong asset and a great store of value, and that persistent inflation will only build further into that story as we enter 2022.
With the Korean entertainment industry sweeping the world off its feet, K-pop, NFTs and metaverse are the next big thing. Go big or go home, and the K-pop industry is betting on the former. With an overseas market that was valued at US$10 billion in 2019. Big industry names are now betting on developing NFTs and other digital assets. Hybe, which manages the global sensation BTS's partnering with Dunamu in November to digitize BTS's merchandise into NFTs. The company's founder Si-Hyuk Bang, believes the tie up will help expand the fan experience more diversely and securely. Cube Entertainment, one of the largest K-pop agencies, also teaming up with Animoca Brands to form a joint venture dedicated to building a music metaverse and issuing NFTs. In an exclusive interview with Forkast.News, Cube CEO says the sky is the limit when it comes to investing in new tech. And the singers themselves are raring to explore the new platform to create music and connect with their fans. The metaverse also beckons with K-pop groups planning virtual concerts and gong from the popular BtoB giving a sneak peek at a new fan experience in the works. One expert told Forkast NFTs could help fans trade digital collectibles of their K-pop idols. "Fans covet these kind of these pieces of paper so much that they will buy or trade or sell them could range from like a couple of dollars to several hundred dollars. I've seen some of them being sold for like 500 dollars on Twitter. NFT can provide these venues to sell, market and buy collectibles."

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Asian's Crypto news are always hot and fascinating. Some bring confusion, like India's news on a draft crypto bill. Some, like the South Korean Kpop movement betting for NFTs and Metaverse show the ability of South Koreans to take any opportunity to make good business. The vast amounts of money Kpop move can be multiplied by Kpop NFTs, and virtual Kpop concerts and many more innovative ideas. Astounding.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst NFTs and Metaverse! Hot terms nowadays. The fight is even in the names. Some speak about Omniverse, some about the Allverse, against the UNIverse. The possibilities of NFTs (assets for the Metaverse) and the Metaverse (or whatever name will succeed) being the territory where these assets thrive are intense, and as wide as our imagination and our technological development allow us. The limits will be always this last item. However, living in a world where tech is developing exponentially and hopingly AI will come to our help, these limits will be widening more and more on time and space.

In recent years, a trend known as NFTs, or non-fungible tokens have taken the art scene by storm. The market has seen explosive growth in 2021 with celebrities like Tom Brady, Snoop Dogg and Grimes jumping into the market. In October, Sotheby’s and Coinbase also announced their intentions in launching their own NFT specific marketplaces. But NFT’s astonishing success has also led to deep skepticism. So just how do non-fungible tokens work and is it an asset worth investing in?

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst NFTs are real, in a real digital world. And they have a value and yes, they help creators and people who deal with creations. And yes, as crypto is the currency of the 4th IR, NFTs can be also the digital stuff of the new 4th IR economy. So, even if the NFT's bubble burst (and that's welcomed), as ICOs' bubble in 2017, NFTs will continue, will evolve and will be a central item in this digital world.

Nvidia's Jensen Huang and Meta's Mark Zuckerberg recently revealed their visions for what the Metaverse will look like in the future. Watch both presentations and see how they compare.
#omniverse #metaverse-
Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Facebook presentation is for all users, on how we could have fun and live and work in a Metaverse, in the FB(Meta) platform. Nvidia however, takes a stand even by renaming the concept to Omniverse, and in a very useful way. It just tell us how it's already working, for designers, architects, engineers, those working with simulations and theories, and from there how it can be moved to the rest of the world, for instance in education, medicine, marketing, and so on. It's really interesting how attractive is Nvidia's Omniverse even within a drier presentation than Meta´s one.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Interesting and entertaining video. Not exactly Metaverse but in the actual platforms which play more like Second Life and other virtual platforms. The results are ambivalent, as humans are not biologically ready to be digitally connected with the actual technology. This is, however, just the beginning, and tech, we hope, will evolve to allow humans to have a better and satisfying experience.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Tether and USDT has been in the news for a long time now with controversies, accusers and others defending them. Up to now, Tether (USDT) continues to be among the top cryptos. So this video is highly interesting and informing. Who is behind it? moreover, who is using it, buying it? The answers are surprising. Curiouser and curiouser.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Even if the reports are true, the answers are not just a list of causes, but more a mixture of biological issues, pollution (just the micro plastics already in our systems are enough to poison us), cultural and social changes, even economic changes, and even some scientists are starting to say that life itself is self regulating avoiding super population. Sciences are becoming more holistic and starting to see life (and reproduction) as a part of the process of everything, not just biology. What will be the consequences of this low rate? disruption and changes, for some cultures the end, for some changes. Life will continue.

Welcome to The Daily Forkast, November 26th, 2021, presented by Megha Chaddah. For the latest in blockchain & crypto news. On today's show:
00:00 Coming Up
00:39 USDT issuer Tether says it is happy to work with policy makers.
01:51 Metaverse linked tokens on a roll.
03:59 Soccer star gets yellow card for Binance promo tweet.
---
First up, Tether, the issuer of the world's most popular stablecoin - USDT, says it is happy to work with policy makers. The U.S. Senate Banking Committee sent several stablecoin issuers a letter earlier this week inquiring about their operational features. Tether responded in a series of tweets, saying collaboration is critical for building the industry and that it is dedicated to ensuring customers are properly protected. Ron Hammond of the Blockchain Association has said the letters are likely the sign of an upcoming hearing on stablecoins.
Meanwhile, according to The Australian Financial Review, the Reserve Bank of Australia says it is considering the creation of a CBDC for use in wholesale markets. Earlier this week, the bank's assistant governor, Michelle Bullock, said CBDCs could reduce the cost of cross-border payments and that institutional interest in the technology is growing. The RBA is already part of an international group of central banks participating in Project Dunbar, testing the use of CBDC for international settlements.
Over in the markets, metaverse related tokens are on a roll. However, while a partnership to push the metaverse with Adidas Originals has helped the Sand token so it's proved more of a damp squid for Coinbase. The Metaverse has been the hottest trend in tech of late, and tokens attached to metaverse projects are reflecting just that. One expert told Forkast.News that a lot of projects that have been years in the making are finally coming to market alongside a wave of interest in the sector. According to CoinMarketCap, both Sandboxe's Sand and Decentraland's Mana have gained over 600% in the past month, reaching all time highs of US$8.51US$5.90 respectively on Thursday. Decentraland growth has seen its market cap hit US$9.2 billion overtaking the Axie Infinity Governance Token AXS, to become the number one play-to-earn token. The Sandbox, which is a platform built on the Ethereum chain, allows users to explore virtual world using non-fungible tokens is one of a suite of games offered by Hong Kong based unicorn Animoca Brands. Its Sand token got a booster when sportswear giant Adidas said it was developing an "Adiverse" with the platform. Adidas has also announced another crypto related partnership with the exchange Coinbase. While details are scarce so far, some have speculated this could be a step towards the company accepting cryptocurrency payments for its goods.
However, its sarcastic tweet saying the deal was probably nothing doesn't seem to have helped Coinbase's share price, having fallen around 12% since early in the month, according to MarketWatch. Elsewhere on the market, some industry watchers are expecting a rise in Bitcoin's price volatility, with major exchanges due to settle monthly options totaling nearly US$3 billion on Friday. With Deribit settling US$2.6 billion of that alone.
A tweet by Andres Iniesta promoting the crypto exchange Binance has resulted in a yellow card from the Spanish markets regulator. It's unclear whether it was a paid promotion. However, the Japanese J1 League player is no stranger to Blockchain technology. Iniesta tweeted "I'm learning how to get started with crypto with Binance" alongside pictures of himself using Binance on his laptop and mobile. The former FC Barcelona and current midfielder for Japan's Vissel Kobe has more than 25 million followers on Twitter. Iniesta's tweet was retweeted more than a thousand times, while the same post garnered over 340,000 likes on Instagram. This prompted a response from the National Securities Market Commission of Spain, warning readers that crypto assets being unregulated products carry some significant risks. However, this isn't Iniesta's first encounter with blockchain, along with two other former Barcelona stars, Carles Puyol and Ivan de la Pena, Iniesta co-founded Olyseum, a blockchain powered networking platform for sports fans. Meanwhile, other teams and players are experimenting with NFTs. Back in September, major soccer team Paris Saint-Germain partnered with Crypto.com to launch NFTs for its fans. And over in China, Nasdaq listed internet company The Nine Limited signed an exclusive agreement with Korean soccer players Son Heung Min currently playing for Tottenham Hotspur FC in the Premier League, to release premium NFT collectibles. While some may be playing it, a little close to the edge seems the blockchain arena is fast becoming soccer's new playing field.

Francisco Gimeno - BC Analyst Among the crypto and digital finance news this week, @Forkast underlines how Metaverse news are hot. It's what happened with the NFTs, and with Doge and with other hot spaces, and it is normal. The novelty is good and the hype too, although there will be always those who lose their money when and if a bubble happens. In the meantime, creators and ideates will continue developing these spaces so crucial for the 4th IR economy.
