Multi-strategy blockchain investment fund Old Fashion Research (OFR) has completed its first close. Led by several former executives from Binance, OFR invested in over 50 blockchain projects in its first year.

According to an announcement, Old Fashion Research is now coming out of stealth mode, in which it has been operating since its foundation in late 2021. Since that time, OFR put money in more than 50 companies in different markets, such as WOO Network, Genopets, Metaverse Magna, MetaDerby and ZetaChain.

The fund was founded by Ling Zhang, the former vice president of mergers and acquisitions, and investments at Binance; and Wayne Fu, former Binace head of corporate development. Jiang Xin “JX” who led Binance Labs’ and Launchpad’s major investment deals, is heading OFR’s venture arm. Zhang said:

We are keen to seek founders who share the same long-term vision and passion for the crypto industry, and we are determined to grow with them together.”

OFR raised funds from a number of major limited partners from inside and outside the crypto industry. The lead investor is gaming platform Wemix, backed by the listed leading gaming company Wemade. Other notable backers include the family office of Gang Wang, JUE Capital, who was the founding investor at DiDi and crypto wallet SafePal.

On May 25, venture capital giant a16z announced closing its fourth cryptocurrency fund at $4.5 billion. The news came less than a year since Andreessen Horowitz announced the launch of its $2.2 billion Crypto Fund III.

Tether launches stablecoin pegged to pesos

Amid market issues surrounding stablecoins, Tether (USDT) launched a new digital asset that will be pegged to the Mexican peso on Ethereum (ETH), Tron (TRX) and Polygon (MATIC) networks.

In an announcement sent to Cointelegraph on Thursday, Tether mentioned that the token will have the MXNT ticker and will join Tether’s roster of fiat-pegged stablecoins that includes dollar-pegged USDT, euro-pegged EURT and Chinese yuan-pegged CNHT.

Citing data that reports blockchain and crypto demand among Mexican companies, the stablecoin issuer believes that there’s a unique opportunity to provide a cheaper option for asset transfer within the region.

According to Tether’s chief technology officer, Paolo Ardoino, the rise in crypto usage in Latin America pushed their decision to “expand.” He explained that the introduction of a stablecoin pegged to the peso will give those in Mexico a way to store value. Apart from this, Ardoino believes that:

“MXNT can minimize volatility for those looking to convert their assets and investments from fiat to digital currencies.”

The team also highlighted that the move will add value to the emerging market by providing a testing ground for onboarding new crypto users in the region. Additionally, they noted that this may also set a precedent for the launch of more peso-pegged stablecoins.

MEXC Global has pledged to carry out a month-long buyback-and-burn-TERA

The fall of Terra shook the entire crypto market. However, the project has no plans to stay down, having secured backing from crypto exchanges to help it rebuild.

In an announcement on Thursday, Terra provided details on an upcoming airdrop of the new native token for its new blockchain dubbed Terra 2.0. The distribution of tokens will proceed on Friday, and holders of Terra Luna Classic (LUNC), TerraUSD Classic (USTC) and Anchor Protocol UST (aUST) who are eligible will receive new tokens

Crypto exchanges Binance and FTX noted that they are working closely with the Terra team regarding the upcoming airdrop. Binance stated that it aims to help affected users on the platform by helping Terra with the recovery plan.

FTX announced that it will support the airdrop and temporarily halt LUNA and UST markets during the migration. The Terra team said that in addition to Binance and FTX, it’s also working closely with more partner exchanges that will support the airdrop.

Apart from the airdrop, many crypto exchanges, like KuCoin, also expressed support for Terra 2.0 by supporting the migration, listing and trading of the new Terra tokens on their platforms.

However, not all exchanges are eager to list the new tokens. In a statement, a spokesperson from crypto exchange BitMEX told Cointelegraph that there are currently no plans to list the new Terra tokens. They explained:

“We list tokens for spot trading based on numerous factors, including that we have a custody solution for that particular token. As such, we have no plans at this stage to list LUNA for spot.”

As for derivatives contracts, the spokesperson said that the exchange needs to ensure there is a “reliable reference index” before it can consider contracts on the new LUNA token.

The Federal Revenue of Brazil wants investors to pay taxes on cryptocurrency trading profits

Brazil’s Federal Reserve (RFB) has declared that Brazilian investors in the crypto-asset market must pay income tax on transactions that involve the like-kind exchange of cryptocurrencies; for example, Bitcoin (BTC) for Ethereum (ETH).

The RFB’s declaration was published in the Diário Oficial da União and was the result of a consultation made by a citizen of the country to the regulator. At the end of last year, the group issued an opinion in which it claimed that trading between cryptocurrency pairs is taxable even if there is no conversion to the real (Brazil’s national currency).

Although it does not specify what can be understood as “profit,” since in the exchange of one crypto asset for another there is no capital gain in fiat currency, it points out that there is, even so, the obligation to pay taxes on the eventual profit:

“The capital gain calculated on the sale of cryptocurrencies, when one is directly used in the acquisition of another, even if the acquisition cryptocurrency is not previously converted into reais or another fiat currency, is taxed by the individual’s income tax.”

However it should be noted that not all crypto investors need to declare their trades, as the regulator established that only investors who trade more than BRL 35,000 (roughly $7263.67) in cryptocurrencies should pay income tax.

29 Moonbirds were stolen by clicking a bad link

A Proof Collective member has fallen victim to a scam, losing 29 highly-valuable Ethereum (ETH)-based Moonbirds. According to a tweet by Cirrus on Wednesday morning, the victim lost 29 Moonbird nonfungible tokens (NFTs) worth $1.5 million after clicking a malicious link shared by a scammer.

Dollar, a Twitter personality and NFT holder, claimed that the so-called culprit is already half doxxed by the crypto exchange, and that Proof Collective and its members are currently working on a full report to the FBI.

Just1n.eth, another user, claimed that while he was attempting to negotiate a deal, a trader insisted on using an unsavory “p2peer” platform to conclude the transaction. Sulphaxyz confirmed that it ha happened to him as well and identified the con artist as the same culprit.

It’s unclear how many victims in total have been duped by the perpetrator, but it’s a harsh reminder that even the savviest of NFT investors need to be on their toes when it comes to scammers. The recent crypto scams are a harsh wake-up call for NFT owners to exercise caution when dealing with third-party platforms, and to double-check anything shared by others, even if they appear trustworthy.

Cointelegraph recently reported that NFT creator Mike Winkelmann, better known as Beeple, had his Twitter account hacked in a phishing attack. The scam earned the attacker $438K in cryptocurrency and NFTs from the compromised Beeple account.

The signing of the MOU, which is between Binance and Kazakhstan’s Ministry of Digital Development, Innovations and Aerospace Industry, took place on Wednesday during Changpang Zhao’s official visit to the country.

Under the framework, Binance will assist Kazakhstan in developing legislative guidelines and regulatory policies for crypto assets. The Ministry of Digital Development, Innovations and Aerospace Industry will also “seek opportunities to integrate banking infrastructure within the cryptocurrency market” and facilitate the development of blockchain technology, according to the official statement.

 

The President held a meeting with Changpeng Zhao, the founder and CEO of Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange company.

During the meeting, they discussed prospects for long-term cooperation between the relevant agencies of Kazakhstan and Binance in digital finance and implementing joint educational programs in the field of blockchain technologies, as well as issues of creating a regional hub of the crypto industry in Kazakhstan.

Following the meeting, in the presence of President Tokayev, the Ministry of Digital Development, Innovation and Aerospace Industry and Binance signed a Memorandum on Cooperation in the Republic of Kazakhstan.
