SingularityNET raised $36 mln in one minute, completely selling out of its native AGI tokens.

Fedcoin Could Be Coming Soon, But Would It Really Challenge Bitcoin?

TradingBTC

The idea of “Fedcoin,” a cryptocurrency sponsored by the U.S. government and managed by the Federal Reserve, has been around for quite some time. “Imagine that the Fed, as the core developer, makes available an open-source Bitcoin-like protocol (suitably modified) called Fedcoin,” a Federal Reserve VP speculated already in 2015.
