A few weeks ago, we launched our governance module on the mainnet, starting the process of gradually decentralizing Paribus.

A few unexpected stories emerged in the previous bull market, such as the massive popularity of NFTs and play-to-earn games.

Over the past few weeks, expectations have been high for a surge in the crypto market, spurred by the launch of the new Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF).

Over the past few weeks, the crypto market has bounced continuously, bringing waves of joy and fear.

With the New Year being a time for resolutions, it seems the ideal moment to release our roadmap for 2024. A word of caution, though, as with all roadmaps, the dates aren’t set in stone.

In our journey of developing Paribus, we’ve received a lot of feedback from our community, primarily positive and helpful.

Although much of the crypto content on X and YouTube gives the impression that most people are trading, the majority of token holders don’t trade. Instead, they’re playing the long game.

One of the most challenging things for newcomers to understand about crypto is the lack of interoperability between ecosystems.

The crypto market is gaining steam after several false starts in recent months. This time, it feels different, and there are signs that a new market phase may be underway.

With so much focus on the seemingly inevitable approval of a spot Bitcoin ETF, many other areas of Web3 development have faded into the background, none more so than metaverses.

Despite the strength of conviction held by different market analysts, no one knows whether the heating up of the crypto market is the start of the next bull run.

As we stand on the verge of a new era in crypto, it’s crucial to reaffirm the importance of decentralization.

As crypto grows in adoption, especially amongst large institutions, many retail investors wonder why the global macroeconomic outlook still matters.

Following a notable shift in stance by Securities and Exchanges Commission (SEC) Chair Gary Gensler towards a Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF), many observers are now viewing this development as imminent, with some predicting approval within the coming weeks.

A vital component of the cryptocurrency market is the ability to trade one token for another. This dynamic plays out predominantly on centralized exchanges (CEXs) like the popular platforms Binance and Coinbase.
