For modern blockchain applications, it’s crucial to balance ease of use for experienced users with accessibility for newcomers. One of the first challenges for beginners is selecting and creating a wallet. Wallet interaction must be simple enough to maintain high conversion rates while preserving blockchain’s core advantage - decentralization - without compromising user experience (UX). Two Audiences: Crypto Enthusiasts and Regular Users When developing blockchain solutions, it’s important to account for varying user experience levels. In the context of decentralized exchanges like EVEDEX, two main audiences can be identified: Crypto Enthusiasts ("Cryptans") – users who are already familiar with blockchain technology, have experience with cold wallets, and value autonomy and decentralization.
Regular Users (“Normies”) – those who want to trade and interact with decentralized financial instruments without having to dive into the technical aspects of blockchain. For the second group, social logins and embedded wallets are especially important, as they make the onboarding process and platform interaction as seamless as possible. Why is Social Login Important? Social login plays a key role in lowering the entry barrier for new users. Traditional crypto wallets require users to store seed phrases, install extensions, and connect hardware devices. This is complicated, especially for those just starting their journey in Web3. EVEDEX offers a built-in wallet with social login, allowing users to sign in via Google. This reduces the likelihood of losing access and makes the platform more convenient for a broader audience. Advantages of Social Login: Registration takes only a few seconds.
No need for a seed phrase.
Access to the account via multiple devices.
More users can try to use DeFi without technical difficulties. The social login concept allows users to instantly enter the platform without memorizing complex seed phrases or going through lengthy registration processes. This is particularly important for newcomers encountering DeFi for the first time and who might be discouraged by the complexity of traditional wallets. By simplifying the login process, we lower the entry barrier for new users and grow the potential audience, allowing more people to explore decentralized finance effortlessly. Why is Wallet Choice Important? One of the main problems with modern blockchain solutions is the complexity of the first experience for new users. To start using decentralized applications, one must learn many new concepts, such as private keys, transactions, fees, and security. This discourages less technically inclined users and significantly reduces engagement. Therefore, choosing the most suitable wallet technology is not just a matter of convenience but also a way to grow the audience and improve the exchange’s conversion rates. EVEDEX is a decentralized exchange focused on providing an interface similar to traditional centralized platforms. To achieve this goal, wallets must combine decentralization (user-controlled funds) with Web2-level convenience. Key features include: Low entry barriers
Sponsored transactions or fee payments in non-native currencies
Account recovery
Two-factor authentication (2FA) support
Cross-device account access Embedded Wallets The fastest way to implement these features is through Wallets as a Service (WaaS) solutions like Magic, Fireblocks, or Thirdweb. Advantages of WaaS Quick Integration: Providers offer ready-made solutions with social login and 2FA support. Users do not need to understand blockchain technicalities, the wallet is ready to use immediately after registration.
Additional Security: Key storage is distributed, and the provider does not have direct access to the user's funds. Additionally, two-factor authentication significantly reduces user risks.
Ease of Use: Users can quickly start using the wallet without complicated setup or seed phrase storage, relying only on social networks or email. Limitations of WaaS Limited Blockchain Support: Some providers only work with specific networks.
Lack of Flexibility: Account recovery is implemented strictly according to the provider's mechanics.
High Costs: For large user volumes, WaaS services can become prohibitively expensive.
Geographical Restrictions: Providers may block access for users from certain regions. Account Abstraction (AA) Account Abstraction is a technology that allows the use of smart contracts as wallets. Unlike classic wallets, which rely on private keys, smart contract wallets provide virtually unlimited flexibility in implementing interaction logic. Currently, the technology is actively developing on EVM-compatible blockchains, thanks to the ERC-4337 standard, which enables AA without changes to Ethereum's base protocol. However, this increases the complexity of the solution's architecture. For implementing a wallet with account recovery and two-factor authentication, the optimal approach is to choose a standard open-source smart account wallet implementation that is well-tested and audited. Advantages of AA for Users Flexibility and Customization: The ability to tailor wallet logic to user needs and preferred verification methods.
Decentralization and Full Asset Control: Eliminates risks of account blocking or access restrictions due to the absence of databases and centralized service controls.
Access Recovery Through Pre-Defined Mechanisms: Useful in case of key loss or other unforeseen circumstances. Disadvantages of AA (Primarily for Projects, Not Users): Complexity of Implementation: Integrating AA with 2FA and recovery mechanisms requires significant amounts of resources.
Early Development Stage: It is possible to encounter bugs as the technology is still evolving rapidly.
Need for AA Infrastructure Deployment in New Networks. Implementation in EVEDEX EVEDEX is actively exploring hybrid solutions for maximum user convenience. One key aspect is the integration of Account Abstraction for enhanced security and user interaction with the platform. The platform offers embedded wallets with social login while maintaining decentralization. This allows traders to use a DEX with the ease of a CEX, without having to trust a centralized entity. Additionally, EVEDEX is testing the possibility of sponsored transactions, enabling users to pay fees in project tokens, as well as flexible access recovery mechanisms without handing over private keys. User Instructions EVEDEX allows users to choose between different interaction options: Social Login (Recommended for Beginners): Sign in via Google.
Quickly create an embedded wallet.
Secure account with 2FA. Connecting an Existing Wallet: Use MetaMask, Trust Wallet, Ledger, and other wallets.
Full control over assets.
Requires seed phrase storage. Hybrid Solutions An innovative approach is combining embedded wallets with Account Abstraction. In this model, an embedded wallet is used to create and manage a smart contract (AA) wallet. This solution allows for seamless integration of social login and 2FA functionality while retaining the ability to implement custom logic at the AA wallet level. Conclusions Choosing the right wallet for decentralized applications requires balancing user convenience with decentralization principles. Embedded wallets provide quick setup and ready-made solutions but may limit flexibility and increase costs. Account Abstraction offers extensive possibilities but demands significant effort during implementation. A hybrid approach enables easy account recovery, social logins, and additional features without sacrificing wallet functionality. EVEDEX is betting on hybrid solutions, integrating advanced technologies into a user-friendly interface to offer the best of both worlds: CEX-like convenience and DEX-level security.

Beth Haddock, Global Policy Lead at Stablecoin Standard, commented on the endorsements: "Their endorsement not only validates the rigor of our proposed framework but also underscores the importance of creating a stable, transparent, and resilient environment for digital currencies. This milestone, following discussions at our annual meeting, sets a strong foundation for the continued evolution of the ecosystem.” The endorsement of the standards lays the groundwork for a stablecoin ecosystem that prioritizes transparency, security and consumer protection. With increased scrutiny from regulators and growing demand for digital assets, unified standards can provide clarity and assurance to both industry participants and the public. Stablecoin Standard’s new framework aims to accelerate the adoption of stablecoins by fostering greater confidence among consumers, regulators, and traditional financial institutions. Ramy Soliman, Co-Founder of Stablecoin Standard, commented on the endorsements: “The endorsement of our global standards by leading stablecoin issuers such as, BiLira and ecosystem participants, including industry leaders like Solana, Zodia Markets and JST Digital, is a vital step toward establishing a unified, trusted framework for the entire sector. As stablecoins continue to redefine the future of digital payments, these standards will provide the foundation for long-term growth, transparency, and security. This collective commitment—solidified during discussions at our annual meeting—not only underscores the industry’s dedication to fostering innovation but also demonstrates a concerted effort to align with evolving regulatory expectations and build the consumer trust essential for stablecoins to thrive globally.” Stablecoin Standard and its endorsing members plan to continue refining these standards for implementation with the goal of achieving industry-wide adherence by Q4 2025. Quotes from Endorsers: Sinan Koç, Co-founder and CEO of BiLira, commented on their endorsement, “As a stablecoin issuer, BiLira has always prioritized transparency, security, and adherence to high standards, which is why we are proud to endorse the Stablecoin Standard’s newly introduced set of global standards. TRYB is governed with a commitment to uphold these principles, which we believe are essential for fostering trust and stability in the rapidly evolving digital asset space. We support this initiative as a significant step towards a more resilient and unified stablecoin ecosystem.” Ran Goldi, SVP Payments and Network at Fireblocks, commented on their endorsement, "With more than a dozen stablecoins issued on Fireblocks, we strongly believe standards are the right path for our ecosystem with regard to interoperability and reaching the holy grail of instant liquidity any time, anywhere. SCS is taking a big, bold step, and we proudly endorse and stand with them on this journey.” Kenny Chan, Head of StraitsX, commented on their endorsement, “As one of the leading regulated stablecoin issuers in Asia, StraitsX is committed to upholding the highest standards of transparency and operational resilience.

WILLEMSTAD, Curacao, August 9th, 2024/Chainwire/--Online poker site CoinPoker has released a proof of reserves (PoR) report showing that user deposits are covered 1:1 in cold wallets, visible on the blockchain, alongside additional reserves in hot wallets to process instant withdrawals. Praising the move by the crypto-based poker site to increase transparency, former Austrian footballer and poker professional Mario Mosböck has partnered with the site as a new official ambassador, alongside British pro Patrick Leonard. In an X post, Mario Mosböck stated the pair’s ‘mission is to guide the new leadership group to build the world’s best online poker site.’ Users can read CoinPoker’s proof of reserves report here. Building A Top Online Poker Site With Cryptocurrency Founded in 2017, CoinPoker is a relatively new crypto poker room and casino, but increasingly ranked among the top online poker sites by the likes of Card Player Magazine, PokerScout and Techopedia. Unlike conventional internet poker sites that use fiat currency, on CoinPoker players bet with Tether (USDT) and the site is able to take advantage of the blockchain to show user funds are safe and segregated. Online poker was rocked by the Full Tilt Poker scandal in 2011, in which user funds were co-mingled with operating funds, and the company went insolvent in the industry’s ‘Black Friday’. Many top poker sites increasingly accept cryptocurrencies as a deposit method, but CoinPoker is among a small and growing contingent to go ‘all in’ and embrace it for all actions at the poker table. Players can deposit USDT, Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, Binance Coin or its own native token CHP which unlocks 33% rakeback for holders. For added security, CoinPoker also makes use of Fireblocks vaults and a decentralized RNG (random number generator) software that players can verify the randomness of after every hand, utilizing Ethereum’s Keccak-256 algorithm. CoinPoker Sign Mario Mosböck, Patrick ‘Pads’ Leonard 28 year old Mario Mosböck, who played as a forward for Austrian Football club Wiener Neustädter SC, recently made a name for himself on the live and online poker scene. He now has over $11.7 million in recorded live tournament earnings, including a first place finish at the Triton Super High Roller Series in Jeju for $1.1 million, and a runner-up finish at the 2023 WPT Big One for One Drop for $4.6 million. Mario players under the screenname ‘livinmydream’ on CoinPoker, often seen in high stakes battles in $25/$50 PLO cash games and higher. Patrick Leonard is a former PartyPoker ambassador and currently ranked 38th on the England all time money list by the Hendon Mob poker database. His total live earnings exceed $3.1 million - including a WSOP bracelet win - and his online earnings of over $19.2 million have seen the 35 year old often rated among the best online MTT players in the world. https://x.com/padspoker/status/1821575144504172892 Also a highly regarded poker coach, Patrick mentors mid stakes players to improve their games, with some of the grinders under his wing going on to win EPT, WCOOP and SCOOP events. He describes his goal at CoinPoker to help ‘create the safest and best online poker room in the world’ and worked alongside the site to produce its proof of reserves report. Proof of Reserves on the Blockchain On its PoR report, CoinPoker writes: ‘CoinPoker prioritizes customer security and peace of mind. Our operations are safeguarded by a Curaçao eGaming License, ensuring compliance with strict regulatory standards. We demonstrate our financial integrity through Proof of Reserves, holding sufficient funds to cover all user assets. Proof of Reserves refers to the assets we hold in custody for users when they deposit funds into their accounts.
Here we provide proof that CoinPoker has funds held in reserve to cover all of our users' assets 1:1, as well as some additional reserves. It's important to note that this sum of funds refers only to users' funds. CoinPoker's corporate holdings, which are stored in wallets completely separately, are not factored into the proof of reserves calculations.’ At this time, CoinPoker customer deposits total approximately $16 million, and the total assets held in reserve to cover those is just under $16.75 million, equal to 105% of deposits. The exact amount of player deposits is updated dynamically every few minutes on the coinpoker.com website. Links are provided to view those funds on the blockchain via etherscan.io, blockchain.com, bscscan.com, and other crypto tracking sites depending on the token. The majority of funds are held in cold storage for security, with some in hot wallets to process instant withdrawals - players can deposit and withdraw funds within minutes via a MetaMask wallet or a crypto exchange account. To celebrate releasing the report, CoinPoker also announced an exclusive promotion for players to gain free entry into the upcoming $40k GTD Sunday Special tournament, on the company's Instagram and other socials. About CoinPoker Licensed in Curaçao, CoinPoker is available for free download on Windows and Android devices, hosting No Limit Hold’em, Pot Limit Omaha and other game types across real money cash game and tournament formats. New players earn a 150% up to 2000 USDT matching bonus on their first deposit, and holders of the site’s native cryptocurrency CHP earn 33% rakeback on their play.

Bitcoin investors now have new options to earn yield on their holdings through Merlin Chain, a Layer 2 blockchain protocol built for Bitcoin. The platform's proof-of-stake consensus allows users to stake wrapped bitcoin (M-BTC) and earn staking rewards, similar to how Ethereum users can stake ether. After bridging BTC to the Merlin network, users lock it on Layer 1 and receive M-BTC, which can then be staked. The staked M-BTC generates rewards akin to staked ether (stETH) on Ethereum. From there, Merlin provides integrations with leading decentralized finance (DeFi) protocols for lending, borrowing, supplying liquidity, and accessing derivatives markets. Everyone knows bitcoin has been one of the best performing assets over the past decade, but holders have missed out on yields that other ecosystems provide. said Jeff, founder of Merlin Chain. In addition to staking, Merlin allows users to supply M-BTC as liquidity to earn yields, explore lending and borrowing markets using BTC as capital, and bridge assets to other Bitcoin Layer 2 networks like Linea. The platform has seen significant activity, with over $13 billion worth of BTC bridged to and from the network in the past 45 days alone. While Bitcoin's security and scarcity are valuable traits, the lack of incentives beyond price appreciation has been a drawback compared to blockchains enabling DeFi applications. Merlin Chain aims to bring the mature DeFi ecosystem of Ethereum to Bitcoin by unlocking similar use cases powered by BTC. The platform has partnered with major crypto custodians and institutions like Fireblocks, Cobo, Ceffu, and Bitmain's Antalpha to bolster security and decentralize its validator set. However, some analysts caution that layering additional protocols and smart contracts on top of Bitcoin may introduce new risks and complexities. One way to understand Merlin Chain is to think of it as a special "money market" that allows Bitcoin holders to deposit and earn a return on their BTC, similar to a bank account earning interest. However, instead of a traditional bank, it is a decentralized protocol utilizing blockchain technology and crypto-native financial instruments. Just as one could deposit dollars into a bank's savings account, Merlin lets users deposit ("bridge") their BTC and earn rewards through staking and DeFi activities. The key difference is that Merlin operates without any central authority controlling user funds. Final Thoughts Merlin Chain represents an innovative effort to enhance Bitcoin's functionality and utility by integrating DeFi opportunities that have largely been limited to other blockchain ecosystems until now. As the crypto ecosystem expands, platforms bridging established assets like BTC to new financial services could gain traction among investors seeking yield. However, introducing additional layers and smart contracts does create new potential risks. Only time will tell if projects like Merlin can execute on their vision of bringing DeFi to Bitcoin in a secure, decentralized manner that aligns with the core tenets of Bitcoin itself. For long-term Bitcoin investors accustomed to a "hodl" mentality, the ability to earn yields on their holdings is an attractive proposition that Merlin aims to fulfill. But they will need to weigh the rewards against the inherent risks and complexities. Nonetheless, Merlin is pioneering an intriguing new intersection of Bitcoin and DeFi.

**SANTA CLARA, California, May 31st, 2024/Chainwire/--**CARV the largest modular data layer for gaming and AI, announced today a strategic investment from Animoca Brands, the company advancing digital property rights for gaming and the open metaverse. In addition, Animoca Brands will become an operator of CARV’s Tier 6 verifier nodes in support of CARV's decentralization of its data layer. The partnership will facilitate deeper integration and long-term synergies as they expand their respective gaming and open metaverse ecosystems. Founded as a gaming credential platform, CARV has evolved into a modular data layer protocol with strong traction from over 2.7 million users, 790 integrated games, and partnerships across major chains like Linea, BNB Chain, zkSync, and Ronin. The company has come good on its gaming credential roots by initiating ERC-7231, the standard approved by the Ethereum Community that binds multiple Web2 and Web3 identities to a single NFT, and partnering with the likes of Google Cloud and Netmarble’s web3 arm, MARBLEX. To support rapid scaling and growth, CARV is introducing community-operated verifier nodes that scrutinize outcomes at each protocol layer. These nodes are crucial for maintaining decentralization, security, and equitable value redistribution as the network expands. CARV aims to accelerate user onboarding and adoption to grow the pie for all stakeholders in its user-owned data ecosystem through partnering with Animoca Brands as a strategic node operator, relying on their experience and expertise in operating various blockchain infrastructures. Node holders will have the option for one-click delegating to Animoca Brands for node operations, ensuring network uptime and robustness. The rewards from node operations will initially be in the form of $veCARV, the staked version of CARV tokens. This also allows Animoca Brands and its portfolio of more than 400 gaming and metaverse companies to participate in CARV’s Infinite Play, a token-lock voting bribery system (CURVE & CONVEX model for gaming) for governance voting. Yat Siu, co-founder and executive chairman of Animoca Brands, commented: “CARV’s mission to advance data self-sovereignty and the interoperability of personal assets in both Web2 and Web3 fits perfectly with the work we do at Animoca Brands. This strategic partnership with CARV will amplify our efforts to pioneer a more equitable framework via new asset classes, economies, and digital property rights. ”“This is a multi-faceted alliance between two leaders in their respective domains,” said Victor Yu, co-founder of CARV. “Through Animoca Brands’ strategic investment, its support as a node operator, and collaboration across our gaming ecosystems, we are taking a comprehensive approach over many years to come.

众多加密钱包中，2024 年必备的四款钱包

Barely a month ago, the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) issued a that ended a two-year crackdown on cryptocurrency within the country’s banking sector, raising the hopes and aspirations of its vibrant crypto community. circular For two years, the repressive CBN ban on cryptocurrencies and digital assets shut the doors in the face of potential investors and robbed the West African country of millions of dollars in web3 funding. While the CBN ban lasted, the rest of the world, however, acknowledged how Nigeria still maintained its position in the crypto race, setting a record as one of the world’s biggest destinations for crypto investments, especially as the biggest crypto market in Africa. In 2023, ranked Nigeria as the 7th country with the highest number of crypto holders in the world boasting a large trading database. In other words, a little over 22 million people own cryptocurrencies in the country. Binance The effects of the prolonged ban sapped the enthusiasm of crypto investors who were eyeing the Nigeria booming market, and it was in the heat of the moment that some of its homegrown crypto companies like Patricia left the country, while other less known companies went out of business altogether. Now that the ominous ban on cryptocurrency has been lifted by the Central Bank of Nigeria(CBN), how is Nigeria making headway in turning its losses to gains and repositioning itself for the next crypto bull run? A New Era Beckons The new CBN circular that ended the two-year ban reversed the prohibition that was placed on the country’s Money Deposit Banks(DMBs). Prior to the ban in 2021, local DMBs were directly involved in the crypto services by serving as the payment gateway for crypto traders on various exchanges. The latest CBN circular, however, now allows them to deal directly with Virtual Assets Service Providers (VASP) in a manner that is consistent with due diligence and crypto compliance. As a result of this, web3 companies like Agile Dynamics, Blockstation, and FireBlocks have entered the Nigerian market, with a considerable interest and investment in the tokenization of Real World Assets(RWA) in the country. Tokenization of Real World Asset(RWA): Nigeria’s Biggest Web3 Opportunity Dubai-based web3 consulting company Agile Dynamics Tech recently announced the signing of Letter of Intent (LOIs) and partnership agreements with Nigeria and two other African countries, signaling its interest in entering the country’s emerging crypto market. "These agreements represent a significant step forward in our mission to foster meaningful change through technology and strategic partnerships," said Paul Lalovich, cofounder of Agile Dynamics tech. "We are thrilled to collaborate with Nigeria, South Sudan, and Mali in leveraging digital solutions to drive economic development and strengthen their positions in the global market." “The signed LOIs and partnership agreements exemplify Agile Dynamics tech's commitment to promoting technological innovation and progress in the mining and minerals sector across diverse international landscapes. By facilitating the tokenization of Real World Assets and securing Direct Foreign Investments, the company aims to catalyze sustainable growth and prosperity in these regions”. Nigeria’s SEC Says YES to Innovation Since the CBN ban was lifted in December 2023, Nigeria’s crypto community has come to terms with the fact that cryptocurrencies are no longer banned in the country, and the government is willing to use this medium to usher in technological innovation and economic growth. In a groundbreaking move, Nigeria's Securities And Exchange Commission (SEC Nigeria) authorized the National Association of Securities Dealers(NASD plc) to launch the Digital Securities Platform (N-DSP), an electronic platform where cryptocurrencies and other digital assets can be listed and offered to the investing public. When it is launched, the Digital Securities Platform (N-DSP) is going to be the first Over-The-Counter Service (OTC) for cryptocurrencies and digital assets in the country and the first crypto-based digital platform to be regulated by the Securities And Exchange Commission (SEC)in a compliant fashion. Eguarekhide Longe, the Managing Director of the NSDP, in his words, stated that : “Our objective is to empower millions of young crypto investors with access to promising digital assets, ensuring they can confidently purchase in a completely compliant and secure investment environment”. Furthermore, the innovative spirit of Nigeria’s NASD can be seen in its partnership with Blockstation, a leading blockchain development company. This partnership underscores the vision to make Nigeria a leading web3 hub in the world. It also goes to show that blockchain technology can play a vital role in boosting the country’s GDP. Commenting on the recent SEC approval, Blockstation founder and CEO Jai Waterman stated that: “The integration of cutting-edge technology to address the needs of, and captivate the substantially large youthful population, is set to unlock previously untapped markets. We are confident that this platform will play a pivotal role in propelling Nigeria into a new era of economic growth”. Conclusion The 2021 CBN ban on crypto transactions was reversed on the 22nd of December, 2023, through a circular allowing Virtual Assets Service Providers(VASP)to operate in the country. The ban, which lasted for two years, created a roadblock to potential crypto investments and lowered the bar of web3 innovation. However, the new policy is touted to be a game-changer as Nigeria continues to attract foreign investment and as it continues to show its commitment to web3 innovation.
