Gala Games has launched Season 14 of Eternal Paradox on September 3 at 00:00 UTC.

GALA Info

Gala is a comprehensive gaming and NFT platform that operates on both Ethereum and BSC networks. The platform encompasses an ecosystem of blockchain games, aiming to allow users not only to play but also trade NFTs and engage in governance.

The Gala ecosystem primarily comprises the Gala Store and Gala Games. While the store facilitates the use of GALA tokens for purchasing in-game items and NFTs, Gala Games offers a platform for accessing a series of blockchain game titles, including their flagship release, Town Star. Central to the network’s operation is its Triple Proof Node System, which relies on a hybrid consensus mechanism combining Proof-of-Work (PoW), Proof-of-Stake (PoS), and Proof-of-Storage. The system operates through three types of nodes: Founder nodes, Paid nodes, and Free nodes.

GALA, the native utility token, is pivotal for various platform functions. It serves as in-game currency for buying items and NFTs within the Gala store and can also be earned by engaging in the platform’s games. Additionally, GALA tokens are distributed as rewards to node operators in the network, incentivizing the maintenance and operation of the Gala network. Governance within the Gala ecosystem is exclusive to Founder node operators, primarily focusing on game additions but also encompassing other network proposals.

KDA Info

Kadena is a public blockchain platform that provides a secure, scalable, and user-friendly environment for developing and launching distributed applications (dApps).

One of the unique features of Kadena is its utilization of a new form of Proof-of-Work (PoW) in its consensus protocol. This protocol, called "Chainweb," is designed to achieve high throughput and scalability while maintaining security and decentralization.

The Kadena token (KDA) is a digital currency that is used to pay for computation on the Kadena public chain. Similar to ETH on Ethereum, KDA on Kadena is the token in which miners are compensated for mining blocks on the network and is the transaction fee that users pay in order to have their transactions included in a block.

API3 Info

API3 is a project that focuses on delivering traditional dAPI services for Web3 applications. The project is governed by a decentralized autonomous organization (DAO), specifically the API3 DAO.

Traditional API services are centralized, meaning they are owned and controlled by individual companies or organizations. This creates a range of issues in terms of transparency, security, and reliability. API3 addresses these problems by offering fully decentralized APIs.

The API3 token is used within the project's ecosystem as a means to incentivize network participants, including node operators and developers, to engage in voting and DAO governance.

Binance will delist Hifi Finance (HIFI) and cease trading on all spot trading pairs on September 17th at 3:00 UTC.

Refer to the official tweet by HIFI:

HIFI Info

Hifi is a decentralized lending protocol on the Ethereum blockchain, offering fixed interest rate loans. It allows borrowers to leverage the value of their crypto assets without selling them. Lenders, on the other hand, can earn predictable returns due to the fixed interest rates. Hifi also incorporates hTokens, a bond-like financial instrument representing an on-chain obligation with a specific maturity date.

Hifi operates through a series of smart contracts that enable users to deposit collateral and mint hTokens in a trustless environment. These hTokens can be purchased by lenders at a discount and redeemed at full face value at maturity. The protocol maintains a collateralization factor to ensure all debts are over-collateralized. If collateral falls below a certain threshold, it is sold to liquidators at a discount, helping to manage risk and maintain the system’s integrity.

The HIFI token is used within the Hifi ecosystem for governance purposes, with token holders responsible for managing the protocol’s risk parameters and incentives. They have the authority to allocate resources to various aspects such as liquidity, staking rewards, public goods, bug bounties, or a token buyback program, thereby playing a crucial role in the overall functioning and stability of the Hifi protocol.
