What are NFTs and why are they so valuable?

The relentless growth of NFTs shows no signs of slowing down in 2022. From original works of art to providing proof of ownership of almost any physical asset imaginable, non-fungible tokens are fast emerging from their niche in the crypto sector to find a visible and important position in the global market. The inability to recreate or divide these assets provide them with verifiable digital scarcity, making them the perfect medium to link to a particular asset as proof of ownership. Put simply, owning an ERC-721 standard token is akin

How tokenisation will revolutionise culture as we know it

What if there was a way, outside of the traditional stock market, to become a shareholder in your favourite luxury brand or superstar? How would that work – how could that even work? European football clubs have become the first brands to realise the potential of tokenisation, giving fans the opportunity to purchase club-specific crypto tokens that rise in value, while also giving them voting rights and exclusive content, essentially making fans shareholders. So far over 24 European clubs across the five major leagues including PSG, FC Barcelona and Manchester City have

Ok, so it wasn’t the bullish charge into 2022 that everyone was expecting Bitcoin to provide – but it’s certainly been interesting seeing who has diamond hands when standing in the middle of a bloodbath! Panic has been in the air in the midst of Fed inflation announcements, the Bank of Russia calling for a crypto ban – only to be swiftly rebuked by the Russia’s Ministry of Finance with the topic amended to regulation. Meanwhile Goldman Sachs stated of the Metaverse that they “…think this could be as much

Evai Newsletter December 2021

2021 was an incredible year and as we kick off 2022 with a bang, it’s important to look back at just how much has been accomplished already! Even back in April when we first launched our MVP, the excitement around our crypto ratings platform – this new project which could evaluate every cryptoasset in the space through unbiased AI and ML technology – was already a talking point in the industry. We launched with just 20 assets that were evaluated and awarded daily with updated performance-based ratings. Since then, we

Evai Newsletter November 2021

Hype and FUD. In the world of crypto there will always be these factors directing the ebb and flow of the market – fear and FOMO – get used to them and start polishing those diamond hands! The charts are a real-time glimpse into human psychology and sentiment and, fascinating though it is, sentiment only highlights the need for unbiased crypto ratings to cut through the noise and appraise each asset based on performance – not narrative. BTC flew up to a new all-time high of $69,000 before retracing with

Evai Newsletter October 2021

Listen. Can you hear that? With the right kind of ear, you just about hear the fiat world’s printing presses starting to roll yet again. The fiat idea that to offset the impending inflation about to overtake the general public’s earnings, the wise solution will be to provide the masses with an increased supply of money that loses its value the moment it is printed and distributed. Luckily the solution – crypto – is powering forward, and Dubai’s focus on crypto has been nothing less than a statement. While the

Evai Newsletter September 2021

Historically, September has always been a challenging month for crypto – not to mention the financial markets in general – and although many thought we might have gotten away with it this year, a potent mix of US regulation FUD in addition to the Evergrande knock-on effect all played a part in spilling the blood. The market opened the month in the green before a crash on 7 September caused BTC to drop $8,000 in a single one hour candle. There were green moves up again until China, with spanner

Evai Newsletter August 2021

With bulls and bears fighting it out over market sway, the bulls victoriously raised the $50k flag over BTC once again for the first time since May. A benevolent hacker momentarily lifted over $600 million from the coffers of Poly Network before returning the crypto (less of course, $33 million for exploiting the issue), whereupon he/she was hired immediately as ‘Head of Security’ by the DeFi project. PayPal announced plans to afford UK users the chance to buy crypto through the platform, stopping short of allowing purchases, although in the
