Virtual Asset Market in 2021: Anndy Lian said “Crypto is ready for mainstream”

The market for virtual or digital assets has evolved since its inception in 2009. The changes are rapid. The market has been dominated for some time by Bitcoin and in this recent bull run, the altcoins are also doing very well, some of them with a few thousand per cent increase. We are now seeing significant growth. People from all over the world have flocked to digital assets like Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), Cardano (ADA), Binance Coin (BNB), TRON (TRX), DOGECOIN (DOGE) and etc.

There is also worldwide commercialization of blockchain trend in the market. Companies are now more open to look at this technology. Companies that are more forward-looking are also looking at the potential of tokenising their assets.

The regulatory momentum that began in 2020 will continue in 2021 as regulators around the world seek to either fit blockchain technology into existing regulatory frameworks or build out new approaches. The framework in future could include what is being built in the decentralised environment too.

Anndy Lian Spoke at Crypto Art NFT/ DeFi Event “NFT has to move beyond art, into finance”

Anndy Lian Spoke at Crypto Art NFT/ DeFi Event “NFT has to move beyond art, into finance”

Anndy Lian and TokyoCrypto catch up at the Crypto Art NFT Event on Twitch, 10 April 2021. This event is produced by NFT.Black and partnering with Beyond Finance.

NFT stands for non-fungible token, are pieces of digital content linked to the blockchain, the digital database underpinning cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin and ethereum. Unlike NFTs, those assets are fungible, meaning they can be replaced or exchanged with another identical one of the same value, much like a dollar bill.NFTs aren’t exactly new. CryptoKitties, a digital trading game on the cryptocurrency platform Ethereum, was one of the original NFTs, allowing people to purchase and sell virtual cats that were both unique and stored on the blockchain.

NFT catches the trend this quarter and is the most talked-about topic currently in the crypto-verse. It’s popularity is in part driven by the fact that anybody can tokenise their work to sell as an NFT but interest has been fuelled by recent headlines of multi-million-dollar sales. On 19 February, an animated Gif of Nyan Cat – a 2011 meme of a flying pop-tart cat – sold for more than $500,000. A few weeks later, musician Grimes sold some of her digital art for more than $6m.

It is not just art that is tokenised and sold. Twitter’s founder Jack Dorsey has promoted an NFT of the first-ever tweet, with bids hitting $2.5m. Christie’s sale of an NFT by digital artist Beeple for $69m (£50m) set a new record for digital art.

Anndy Lian was also interviewed by Channel News Asia (CNA) Insider last week. (https://anndy.com/interview/is-digital-art-the-next-thing-to-invest-in-money-mind-cna-insider-nft-boom/)

In the event, Anndy shares his views on crypto in general. TokyoCrypto also asked Anndy about NFT, DeFi, on-chain custodian and more.

At the end of the event, Anndy brought up an interesting point. “Combine cross-chain capabilities from tech companies like CZZ (Classzz.com) with NFT multi-chain marketplace like Hodooi.com would be interesting. Companies should come together to create a better-decentralised environment for this industry and not work alone.”

Lian has also told a reporter from Blockpaths.com that NFT has to move beyond art, into finance. “NFT is not just about art. It is also way beyond the current hype. The real capability for NFT is not fully tapped on. Its ecosystem and infrastructure are still in the building stage, we will definitely see its true self in the near future.”

Enigmatic Elon Musk Sets Crypto Riddle with Mysterious DeFi-themed Post

Enigmatic Elon Musk Sets Crypto Riddle with Mysterious DeFi-themed Post

Another day, another Elon Musk-shaped Twitter-based crypto enigma – the Tesla chief and Twitter trickster-in-chief has sent the crypto community into a twist with to a tweet about decentralized finance (DeFi).

Without explaining whether he was being serious or just trolling his followers, Musk tweeted simply:

Musk’s serious or otherwise tweets have previously seen him delve into the world of bitcoin (BTC), dogecoin (DOGE) and even non-fungible tokens (NFTs). But the DeFi-related post appears to indicate that his playfulness – or crypto keenness – knows no bounds.

Twitter users immediately began theorizing as they waited for further clues from the Tesla supremo, who recently announced that Tesla would begin accepting BTC payments for Tesla products in the USA, with more regions to follow.

The now-seemingly-ever-present Tron (TRX) boss Justin Sun seized the opportunity for some humor, tweeting,

“Can you have DeFi on Tesla? For example, you can drive and earn Tesla tokens. The more you drive the more you earn!”

The Three Arrows Capital CEO Zhu Su called Musk “sensei,” and quipped that the community would become his “deFiant pupils.”

More puns were punched out by the blockchain advisor Anndy Lian, who advised that people should “defy current financial norms to embrace the new DeFi economy.”

Others took a more skeptical view of the matter, with the podcaster Luke Martin musing,

“How long until Elon Musk starts pumping his favorite DeFi coins like he did DOGE?”

But others still expressed excitement and all-around joy at a potential hint that Musk might actually branch out into the fast-moving world of DeFi, with a few daring to dream of a world of yield farming – powered by Telsa vehicles.

And in a sharp-witted tweet, the Spartan Group General Partner Jason Choi referenced one of Musk’smost enigmatic Twitter posts yet, writing,

“In retrospect, it will be inevitable.”

But perhaps the real truth of the matter is that Musk just felt the need to indulge in a little wordplay.

In a tweet from around the same time as his DeFi post, Musk wrote,

“If there’s ever a scandal about me, *please* call it Elongate.”

Meanwhile, the top 10 DeFi coins are down by around 4%-5% in the past hour (12:36 PM UTC) and 10%-18% in a day.
