The popularity of The Don is even capable of pumping numbers on the Polygon network.
Over 332,000 users traded or minted NFTs on Polygon in the past week of December 12. With the successful Trump NFT release, the blockchain continues to prove itself as a home for popular NFT projects.
The number of users trading and minting NFTs on the Polygon network surged with the popularity of the ex-US President’s NFT release.

The short tweet thread from Nansen also included data showing the most expensive NFT purchases of the past week. The top purchases were clearly the NFT from Donald Trump, with the highest buy from user @DeFi_Brian going for the equivalent of over $22,000 USD.

The Trump NFT release notably spiked activity on the chain as well. There was a major spike in activity around Dec. 18 with the NFT release, where over 1,000 transactions were occurring per hour, presumably NFTs most of them.
The scaling blockchain proved vulnerable to the enduring celebrity and popularity of ex-US President Donald Trump. The Polygon Network has also secured partnerships with Instagram (Meta), DraftKings, Starbucks, and other major corporations to support NFTs.
The Trump NFTs were unable to pump the overall price of MATIC. The coin price is down 12.6% in the last week to $0.780652, according to CoinGecko.
Polygon (formerly known as MATIC) is an Ethereum-based scaling solution network that tackles the fundamental high gas fee and congestion issues of the Ethereum blockchain. The effectiveness of Polygon as an alternative to generic Ethereum has seen existing projects such as Aave, Curve adopting its chain.
Recently, the platform announced the launch of the Polygon SDK. The SDK will be the framework developers will use to build decentralized applications (DApps) on the network.

Shroder reassures users to the solvency of the US franchise arm to the world's largest exchange.
Binance.US CEO and President Brian Shroder claims the US arm of Binance would still have millions in assets if every user withdrew all their money.
In a ten-part Twitter thread on Dec. 19 that addressed his firm's acquisition of Voyager’s billions of bankrupt assets, Shroder made use of the moment to reiterate the transparency of Binance.US.
5/ At https://t.co/Wc26vM6jnW, we take a customer & compliance first approach to every business decision we make. We're one of the most licensed digital asset exchanges in the country – operating in 46 states & 3 territories – & we NEVER trade or lend our customers’ funds.
During a market environment full of FUD and turmoil, Shroder reminded users that Binance.US is the “most licensed digital asset exchanges in the country – operating in 46 states & 3 territories.”
It wasn't until the seventh tweet in the thread that Shroder assured his 11k followers that Binance.US backs users’ funds 1-1 and could withstand a run if every user withdrew their funds.
7/ https://t.co/Wc26vM6jnW is well capitalized: our assets exceed our liabilities. All of our customers could withdraw their assets tomorrow, which is their right & we would still have hundreds of millions of current assets.
The reserve funds of many crypto exchanges have been in the public eye recently. Binance.US is subject to audits and regulatory reporting as a centralized exchange within the United States.
Binance.US is the American arm of the world’s largest cryptocurrency exchange platform, Binance. Users on the platform can buy, sell, and trade over 60 popular crypto assets, including Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), BNB Chain (BNB), and Bitcoin (BTC).

Reuter's report digs into the public record of Binance around the world to find out who controls what.
A recent Reuter’s special report has accused Binance of hiding its core businesses from the public eye, calling their books a “black box.”
The long-form special report from Dec. 19 by Tom Wilson, Angus Berwick and Elizabeth Howcroft details how Binance––Reuters alleges––absconds itself from the public and operates a global jigsaw of corporations. The report claims this helps Binance obfuscate the truth behind its proof of reserves and avoid full transparency.
The Reuters report goes in depth through the various licenses and approvals obtained by Binance around the world. The reporting follows the trail to observe how Binance operates globally, showing few public findings in many locations.
The report from Reuters comes as Binance is fighting a public relations battle around the crypto world and the greater finance industry at large. The fallout from the FTX collapse has fully enmeshed Binance as the world’s largest crypto exchange defends its position.
Reuters has been caught engaging in misinformation about Binance in the past. CEO Changpeng Zhao has been ready on his Twitter account to defend his company.
Binance positions itself as the world’s leading blockchain ecosystem and crypto-asset infrastructure provider with a financial product suite that includes the largest digital asset exchange by volume. The Binance platform aims to increase the freedom of money for users and features a comprehensive portfolio of crypto-asset products and offerings, including trading and finance, education, data and research, social good, investment and incubation, decentralization, and infrastructure solutions.

The Pi Hackathons is a great opportunity to help shape the ecosystem of the imminent mainnet.
Pi Network will be hosting its second official Hackathon on January 9. The Hackathon comes on the back of KYC updates from the Pi Core Team and hopefully comes in preparation for a mainnet launch sometime in 2023.

Here we take a quick look at five projects on the radar of BSC News that could benefit from participation in the upcoming hackathon.
