9 years ago, Vitalik Buterin presented his Ethereum smart contract platform to the world. He officially announced his invention on BitcoinTalk Forum with a post titled "Welcome to the New Beginning!"
It’s not an anniversary date, so let’s do without flowers and applause.

Our congratulations on these achievements, Vitalik! 
Avalanche fans have reason to rejoice.
The amount of bitcoins locked on the Avalanche network recently surpassed that of the Lightning Network.
Snowtrace.io reports that Avalanche currently has almost 5,500 BTC, compared to less than 5,250 on the Lightning Network.

Fabio Panetta, a member of the board of the European Central Bank, said that the digital euro does not involve the ability to set limits on how funds can be spent.
This is one of the main concerns in society regarding the proliferation of Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs), since today's technology will allow it to happen.
Well, we'd like to believe... But today it's one thing, and tomorrow another.

The purchase of Rar, ERN, TORN, and RAMP tokens are examples of such transactions. A $100,000 to $900,000 worth of transactions were made. The "trader" earned several million dollars over the course of several transactions.
Grogan speculated that it could be either a rogue employee or a trader who might have access to the losing API.

Yes, they tighten the requirements and the nuts again. As of right now, European banks are required to view cryptocurrencies as the riskiest asset class.
