🚀 World Liberty Financial to Launch Decentralized Lending Service

According to Foresight News, a white paper summary obtained by CoinDesk reveals that World Liberty Financial, a cryptocurrency project promoted by Donald Trump's son, plans to develop a lending service. This service will include a credit account system built on Aave and the Ethereum blockchain to facilitate decentralized lending. The project will also introduce a new cryptocurrency called WLFI, a non-transferable governance token.

The white paper and other reports indicate that the lending service is strikingly similar to Dough Finance, a platform developed by four individuals who are now listed as team members of World Liberty Financial. It appears that World Liberty Financial may have directly sourced code from Dough Finance, especially in its early stages. Dough Finance suffered a $2 million loss in a hacking incident in July.

Insiders have identified Zachary Folkman and Chase Herro as the founders of Dough Finance, who are now listed in the white paper as the Chief Operating Officer and the Head of Data and Strategy for World Liberty Financial, respectively. Additionally, Octavian Lojnita, the Head of Smart Contracts for World Liberty Financial, previously worked at Dough Finance.

🚀 ExSat Mainnet Launch Set For October 23 With Fair Token Distribution

According to BlockBeats, the large-scale BTC infrastructure project exSat is scheduled to launch its mainnet on October 23. The exSat project team has adopted a fair launch token issuance method. Alongside the mainnet launch, the governance token XSAT will be released in sync with BTC mining, with no pre-mining or team reserves.

The official whitepaper states that a total of 21 million tokens will be released, with each BTC block producing 50 XSAT tokens. Additionally, exSat's tokenomics incorporate a halving mechanism, reducing the token output by half every 210,000 blocks.

The exSat Foundation will receive node-donated tokens through a Donation method, which will be recorded in a smart contract, introducing a new node management model. Internal sources reveal that the Donation ratio can be set by nodes between 10% and 30%, directly reflecting on the mainnet's community contribution value.

🚀 MakerDAO Considers Reverting To Original Branding Amid Sky Token Struggles

According to Blockworks, MakerDAO is contemplating a return to its original branding after the rebrand to Sky governance token faced significant challenges. The rebrand, announced in late August and implemented on September 24, allowed holders of the original MKR governance token to convert to the new SKY governance token at a 1-to-24,000 exchange rate. However, only about 10.7% of MKR token holders have made the conversion to SKY.

The USDS stablecoin, on the other hand, has seen positive growth, reaching a market cap of $1.26 billion. Rune Christensen, Maker’s co-founder, noted that the DeFi community has shown a strong preference for the MKR token over the new SKY token. As a result, the Maker team will vote on October 28 on three options: continuing with Sky as the core brand, reverting fully to Maker’s original brand identity, or returning to the original branding with minor updates to align it with USDS and the StarDAOs.

The redenomination from MKR to SKY was intended to make the token more appealing to retail investors by lowering its price per unit. However, this strategy has not been successful, as the SKY token has not been listed on centralized exchanges. To encourage conversion, Sky planned to offer rewards for staking SKY, but these incentives have been criticized as difficult to understand.

Critics have also pointed out that Maker spent $50 million on the rebrand, which they view as a failure. Christensen acknowledged the criticism but clarified that the entire sum was not spent solely on rebranding. He emphasized that the rebrand aimed to drive demand for the USDS stablecoin, which has been successful. Since the rebrand, Maker has launched several initiatives, including integrating USDS with Aave and expanding USDS to Solana and other Ethereum Layer 2 solutions.

🚀 Binance to Launch Codatta (XNY) Pre-TGE and Booster Campaigns

According to the announcement from Binance, the platform is set to introduce two exclusive campaigns for Codatta within the Binance Wallet. The first initiative, the Pre-TGE Campaign, allows eligible users to subscribe to Codatta’s governance token, XNY, before it becomes tradable. This campaign follows an over-subscription model, permitting up to 3 BNB deposits per user. Token allocation is proportional to the total BNB deposited by all participants. After the subscription period concludes, users can claim their XNY tokens, with unused BNB automatically refunded. However, these tokens are subject to a mandatory lock-up period and will not be immediately tradable. Trading will commence only after the project team decides to enable circulation.

The Pre-TGE Campaign details include a total raise amount of $100,000 in BNB, with 200,000,000 XNY tokens available, representing 2% of the total supply. The price per token is set at $0.0005 USD equivalent in BNB, with a subscription cap of 3 BNB per Binance Wallet user. Participants must have sufficient Binance Alpha Points to qualify. The exact start date and Alpha Points requirement will be announced soon on the official Binance Wallet X account.

In addition to the Pre-TGE Campaign, Binance will also launch the Codatta Booster Campaign, a 12-week challenge offering users a chance to earn a share of up to 0.5% of the total XNY token supply each week. This campaign is open to all Binance Wallet (Keyless) users with 61 or more Binance Alpha Points. The Booster Campaign is designed to reward early supporters of the Web3 ecosystem. More details will be provided on the Codatta Booster Events page, which will be published on the official Binance Wallet X account in the coming days.
