Bitcoin has been on sale, did you buy up?
This months issue:
๐ ๐ผ In the business of beauty with KIKIWORLD
๐ฆ All is not well at Uniswap
Bitcoin halving ๐ค๐ผ price volatility
๐ Worldcoin is growing up and launching their own layer 2
And were having a party for Bitcoin Pizza Day ๐๐ฅณ
THE TLDR;
๐ ๐ผ In the business of beauty:
KIKI WORLD utilises Web3 and the power of community voting to make beauty products IRL! They have just raised a $7 million seed round from a16z crypto and the Estee Lauder Companies. Showing just how powerful the addition of emerging technology, co-creation and community is in the business of beauty.
๐ฆ All is not well over at UNISWAP:
UNISWAP has just been served a wells notice from the SEC. Hayden Adams head of UNISWAP says โI'm not surprised. Just annoyed, disappointed, and ready to fight."
Tbh, I think heโs taking it really wells!
Bitcoin halving ๐ค๐ผ price volatility.
The Bitcoin halving upon us and if youโre still unsure what that is.. well youโre in luck because that was the topic of our last meet up, which you can catch the replay of right here.
So there's been some major price volatility in the market with a major price dump aka sale.. So moving forward is the price going up or down?? Some people say the halving has already been priced into the current value of Bitcoin. Maybe the current low is getting us ready for some never been seen ATHs.. Tim Draper predicting Bitcoin will reach 250k by the end of the year. Bet on.
๐ Worldcoin is growing up and launching their own layer 2
Worldcoin made famous by scanning peoples retinas as proof of their humanity with an orb.
But Worldcoin is really kicking off, as it stands currently it can make up to 90% of the activity on Optimism, so to deal with the popularity it's launching it's own chain on Ethereum using Optimism's "superchain" solving the network traffic problems and hopefully bringing a new kind of utility to Worldcoin users.

Have you ever dreamt of an organised list of different Blockchain businesses? I know I have ๐๐ผโโ๏ธ
