Uniswaps, Bitcoin Wraps, and 20 Crypto Jokes

Unsurprisingly, the last seven days have shown us that Bitcoin whales are actively accumulating BTC throughout 2020, and MicroStrategy CEO doubled-down on the company’s bitcoin bet as “trillions are melting in treasuries.” Major crypto exchange Kraken has received a banking charter, while Kiss star Gene Simmons admitted that he was made for loving BTC.

At the same time, regulators like the Financial Action Task Force (FAFT) have been looking for crypto “red flags” to identify criminal behavior, while Venezuelan crypto users became increasingly worried about limited trading options, even though LocalBitcoins said it won’t leave the country. In Europe, the regulators promised a new “wave of regulatory obligations” for local crypto players, while monero (XMR) went up due to major compliance news.

Speaking of altcoins, Ethereum fees skyrocketed again as Uniswap’s UNI token went live, while Coinbase Pro introduced a withdrawal fee. Despite the recent DeFi token selloff, the total value locked in DeFi has continued to rise, and KuCoin offered a surprise to thousands of Aave’s LEND holders. Last but not least, if you’re interested in how to earn crypto income on Uniswap, you can learn about it following our new “DeFi Unlocked” series.

Finally, we can summarize last week via a universal language – the memes.
