Friend.tech has launched version 2 of its blockchain-based social platform with new features and anticipation for a 100% airdrop of its FRIEND token.

The SPX index is down 1.6%, driven by a rise in bond yields following higher-than-expected employment cost data, raising concerns that the Fed might maintain higher interest rates. The broader cryptocurrency market is down, with Bitcoin and Ether dropping by 6.02% and 6.79%, respectively in the past 24 hours.

Today’s outperformer is FRONT, which jumped 4.6% after Frontier Wallet enabled secure cross-chain asset swaps to Cronos Chain with XY Finance.

Frontier (FRONT), founded in 2019, is a multi-chain DeFi and NFT wallet that supports over 65 blockchains and enables secure trading, staking, and asset management through a single interface. It integrates with top wallets via WalletConnect and simplifies the user experience by minimizing the need for multiple extensions and seed phrases. Frontier Wallet now

 for Bitcoin’s Lightning Network in partnership with Lightspark, offering users instant, low-cost Bitcoin transactions as an alternative to the slower, more expensive traditional Bitcoin network. This integration supports Coinbase's goal of creating a global payments system with transactions costing just one cent and processing within one second. The Lightning Network, operational since 2017, significantly reduces transaction costs compared to traditional finance methods, such as credit cards and wire transfers. This move not only enhances the utility of Bitcoin for Coinbase's customers but also advances the broader crypto ecosystem by supporting faster, more affordable, and more secure global payments.

After the debut of Hong Kong's first spot Bitcoin ETFs, Bitcoin's price fell below $61,000, with concerns it could drop further below $60,000. The launch triggered a "sell-the-news" reaction, contributing to a downward trend and negative net flows in U.S. Bitcoin ETFs. This situation poses risks but may also present a buying opportunity for long-term investors.

 version 2 of its blockchain-based social platform with new features and anticipation for a 100% airdrop of its FRIEND token. The company has already taken a snapshot for the airdrop, which may occur as soon as next week when points balances become blockchain-based. Friend.tech, which debuted in August 2023 on Base, a Coinbase-incubated Ethereum Layer 2, had initially seen significant activity but later experienced a decline. The latest update introduces the Money Club for managing community treasuries and minting tradable collectibles, a new points system for the airdrop, and custom engagement metrics. Additionally, version 2 allows users to customize their chat spaces. The platform currently has $34.4 million in total value locked, down from its peak of $52 million.

Today’s outperformer is ENA, which jumped 7.3% after Ethena's synthetic dollar launched on Swell L2 with rewards and airdrops in pre-launch phase.

The SPX index is up 0.32%, the Federal Reserve is expected to maintain borrowing costs, but investor focus will be on any changes in rhetoric after recent high inflation data. Market expectations for rate cuts this year have decreased, with only one 25 basis point reduction now anticipated, compared to three a month ago. The broader cryptocurrency market is down, with Bitcoin and Ether dropping by 1.23% and 4.01%, respectively in the past 24 hours.

Ethena Labs (ENA), founded in 2023, introduces USDe, a synthetic dollar on Ethereum, offering a decentralized alternative to traditional stablecoins. It features the 'Internet Bond' for global savings, using delta-hedging to manage volatility and aiming to transform the financial ecosystem by enhancing Ethereum's utility. Recently, $USDe is now available on 

. By depositing $USDe during the Pre-Launch phase, users can earn Sats, qualify for a Season 2 airdrop upon the L2 launch, receive additional airdrops from projects on Swell L2, and share 1 million EigenLayer Points. For more details, visit the Swell Network website.

Omnity has launched a new integration that allows for the fee-free trading of Runes tokens without impacting the Bitcoin network. This 

 utilizes the Internet Computer Protocol's chain fusion technology, enabling interactions with the Bitcoin blockchain and other networks without the need for wrapped tokens or off-chain relayers. The initiative, which distinguishes Omnity from other Bitcoin interoperability solutions, aims to address the scalability challenges of the Bitcoin network, particularly in light of increased activity from new technologies and Bitcoin ETFs. On April 20, the Bitcoin network hit a record high of over 926,000 transactions, with Runes tokens constituting a significant portion of this traffic.

Bernstein analysts believe the recent decline in Bitcoin ETF flows is temporary and predict a bullish future with a $150,000 BTC price target by 2025. They remain optimistic about Bitcoin's integration into financial platforms and its long-term acceptance. Additionally, they suggest that a denial of an Ether ETF could benefit Ether and Ethereum Layer 2 tokens. The firm expects the crypto market cap to triple to $7.5 trillion within two years.

 plans to distribute EIGEN tokens via airdrop from May 10 to September 7, targeting users who participated in Ethereum restaking on the EigenLayer protocol. The initial distribution, termed a "stakedrop," will allocate 5% of the total token supply based on activities as of March 15. The airdrop is divided into two phases, with 90% of tokens going to initially eligible users and the remaining 10% to those who interacted with EigenLayer in more complex ways. However, the airdrop excludes users from several countries, including the US and Canada, and implements strict measures to block VPN and proxy users. Future airdrops will reserve an additional 15% of the token supply. The EIGEN token, designed to address specific protocol faults, will initially be non-transferable and non-forkable to support the protocol's growth, with full functionality enabled later.

cat in a dogs world (MEW) is a no-utility, cat-themed meme coin built on Solana challenging the dominance of dog-themed coins in the crypto space.

The world of meme coins is wild and filled with all types of animals, such as dogs, cats, penguins and frogs. In 2024, the meme coin craze is back in full swing, evidenced by the astronomical gains made by top crypto meme coins like 

During this meme coin season, Solana-based meme coins have stolen the show with dog-themed tokens dominating the space. However, a recent cat-themed meme coin is seeking to challenge this dog-themed coin narrative.

cat in a dogs world (MEW) stormed into the meme coin space on Mar 27, 2024, and has been causing a stir with its remarkable price surge. Upon listing, MEW’s price soared by 385% to reach an ATH of $0.0097 within four days.

Let’s explore the MEW coin and find out why it’s one to watch in the thriving 

cat in a dogs world is a no-utility, cat-themed meme coin built on Solana (

It was launched on Mar 27, 2024, to provide a cat-themed token that would be a worthy competitor to the dog-themed meme coins dominating the space.

Barely 96 hours into the market, MEW had pumped by 385% to hit a price of $0.0097, during which its market capitalization reached around $848 million, a figure reserved for more established projects in the market such as 

MEW’s market cap has since shrunk to a more conservative figure of $357 million, with a 24-hour trading volume of $59 million on Apr 30, 2024. It’s currently trading around $0.004.

cat in a dogs world has a total/max supply of 88,888,888,888 tokens, of which 90% were burned as 

, while the remaining 10% were allocated as an 

MEW’s formidable success could be attributed to its tokenomics strategy, as burning most of the LP tokens creates a stable price floor and cushions the token against market volatility. The airdrop is also an excellent way to attract attention to the project and create brand awareness, further solidifying MEW's presence on Solana and in the cryptocurrency market as a whole.

Deliberately airdropping and burning the LP tokens enhances the value of the MEW token, while giving it a competitive advantage in the cutthroat world of meme coins.

Cat meme coins have been generating a lot of hype lately. Let's look at a brief comparison between MEW and two other cat-themed coins in the meme coin space.

 (CATS) have caused a stir in the meme coin space. Not only are they both trying to change the dog-eat-dog landscape, but they’ve also approached the market in an innovative way.

That said, unlike MEW, CATS has various utilities in its ecosystem, such as 

. Catcoin’s ecosystem is also filled with a variety of products, such as the Caring Cats charity and a non-fungible token (

) collection. While the two tokens entered the meme coin space at different times, they’ve both managed to draw attention to feline-themed meme coins.

 (OMNI), caused a stir when its price quickly soared after the coin’s debut in December 2023. However, unlike MEW, which is only available within the Solana ecosystem, Omnicat leverages omnichain technology and is available on seven blockchains, including 

While it may be a meme coin, Omnicat leverages 

’s blockchain in order to advance its mission of interoperability in the crypto space. Both MEW and Omnicat have adopted innovative approaches that seem to have paid off despite their meme coin narratives.

You can buy MEW Cat Coin on Bybit as a Spot pair (MEW/USDT) or a USDT perpetual contract (MEWUSDT). To celebrate this Spot listing, Bybit is holding two Token Splash events, 

, with 40 million MEW tokens up for grabs.

, is exclusively for new users, with a prize pool of 25 million MEW. By completing Identity Verification and accumulating a deposit volume of 25,000 MEW (worth 100 USDT), or depositing 100 USDT and trading 100 USDT worth of MEW tokens via your first trade with Bybit, you’ll have a chance to receive 5,000 MEW. Rewards are available on a first-come, first-served basis to the first 5,000 new users.

, has 15 million MEW tokens up for grabs. Simply trade at least 1,000 USDT worth of MEW tokens on Bybit’s Spot market to earn a share of the prize pool. 

Rewards will be capped at 200,000 MEW (around 800 USDT) per user.

While it’s primarily been a dog-eat-dog world in the meme coin space, tokens such as MEW are effectively diluting this narrative. Being one of the top-ranking Solana meme coins, the MEW cat-themed coin has followed others in the ecosystem by skyrocketing in price within a short time of entering the market, flooding Solana with much-needed liquidity.

Despite its slowed momentum — generally attributed to the currently fluctuating price of Bitcoin (

) — MEW remains a Solana cat-themed meme coin to watch when the market starts rallying again.

Everyworld (EVERY) revolutionizes advertising with its blockchain-based platform, offering crypto rewards for watching ads while playing games, all the while supporting environmental causes.

Annoyed by online ads? You’re not alone, as most internet and mobile app users don't favorably view the myriad ads they’re bombarded with every time they visit a website or log in to their app. The resentment toward advertising is easily understandable, since there's nothing in it for the user — other than lost time and disruption to their activities in the virtual world.

Everyworld (EVERY) is a blockchain-based advertising platform that pays users crypto rewards for ads they watch while playing a game, radically changing how the advertising industry works. Besides vastly increasing the acceptance of the ads via incentivized viewing, Everyworld also contributes to green initiatives by donating a proportion of its revenues to environmental conservation organizations.

 (EVERY) is an advertising platform whose users can earn crypto rewards simply by watching ads.

 The project hosts its environmentally-themed game on Discord. Advertisers from various industries pay to run ads within the Everyworld game system, benefiting from the much greater acceptance of their promoted content under the incentivized viewing model.

The platform's Discord-based gaming environment boasts over 250,000 users, who, as of April 2024, have watched more than 50 million ads, earning crypto rewards in the process.

While Everyworld's game is based on Discord, the protocol's crypto operations, related to activities such as incentive payouts and payments by advertisers, are powered by the Ethereum-linked 

The Everyworld platform was developed by the New York-based 

 gaming developer Everyrealm. The company was founded in 2021 by a group of technology entrepreneurs — Janine Yorio, Jesse Stein, Julia Schwartz, Kostas Ketikidis and TJ Kawamura.

Users can play Everyworld’s game via its 

, and will soon be able to use a mobile app version as well. As you play the game, you’re served video ads and can earn the platform's native crypto, EVERY, for watching the promoted content. The more advertising you watch, the more EVERY rewards you earn.

Businesses placing ads on the platform pay the cost of advertising using EVERY tokens. These businesses can significantly benefit from the incentivized advertising mode, since according to Everyworld it increases the likelihood of an in-app purchase by six times as compared to traditional advertising models.

EVERY tokens paid for watching ads aren't the only incentives offered on Everyworld. The platform features a dual-incentive mechanism whereby users can also earn EVERY for participating in quests posted on Everyworld's social media pages.

For every reward issued to users, the Everyworld project has pledged to donate an equal amount to environmental causes. The charitable giving pledge is currently used to support four sustainability-focused organizations — The Ocean Cleanup, the International Union for Conservation of Nature, The Nature Conservancy and Fundación Vida Silvestre Argentina.

Everyworld's native token, EVERY, is a utility asset designed for the platform's payment and reward mechanisms. Advertisers pay for ad placement in EVERY tokens, and users earn rewards in EVERY for watching ads and winning quests. 

Holders of the token can also enter drawings regularly held on the platform without needing to qualify for them via on-platform activity.

The EVERY token, launched on Apr 7, 2024, is a 

 asset, with a total and maximum supply of 10 billion. Its supply allocation shares are shown in the chart below.

With 3% of the total supply allocated to community airdrops, the project has announced its first 

 campaign, which kicked off on Apr 15, 2024. 

To qualify for the airdrop, you need to satisfy the following conditions:

Where to Buy the Everyworld Token (EVERY)

You can buy the EVERY token on Bybit as a 

. Additionally, until Apr 26, 2024, 10AM UTC, you can benefit from 

, a large-scale campaign with a whopping 140 million EVERY (around $6 million as of Apr 16, 2024) on offer.

The EVERY token has been on the market since Apr 7, 2024, and is trading at around $0.0425, which is 45% lower than its ATH of $0.07688, registered on the token's launch day (Apr 7, 2024) and 40.2% higher than its ATL of $0.03015, recorded on Apr 13, 2024.

Long-term price forecasts for EVERY are primarily bullish, with PricePrediction 

 to trade at $0.0826 in 2025 and $0.5451 in 2030, and DigitalCoinPrice 

 of $0.011 in 2025 and $0.32 in 2030, respectively.

Traditional advertising is slowly dying, with target audiences fed up with the avalanche of ads they’re hit with online, and advertisers seeing their conversion rates decline year after year. The incentivized, watch-to-earn model championed by Everyworld might soon become the norm in the industry. All the evidence points to this model being vastly superior to traditional ads in terms of target audience engagement, conversion rates and user satisfaction.

Everyworld might not be the only player in the 

 universe that has adopted the watch-to-earn model, but it’s undoubtedly one of the top gaming-focused crypto projects in this niche. In addition, the environmental initiatives supported by the platform are also among its distinct features. With all these unique points of distinction, Everyworld has the chance to soon become a leading web3 incentivized ads provider. 

Watching video content and getting paid for it — very few gamers would object to that!
