[Register & Earn!]( Editor's Note How We Can Live in the Metaverse Earlier this week, famed NSA whistleblower Edward Snowden started a Or at least, work in it. If you’re like us at CoinMarketCap — or what must be most of the population across the world during the pandemic — you’ve been working remotely for a long, long time already, with Zoom calls making up the majority of your waking work life. I bet some of you haven’t even met your colleagues in person, ever, and have only seen their faces from unflattering MacBook camera angles in unlit home offices. Enter the metaverse. And if you’re like me, you may not have been thrilled when the metaverse became the newest thing in crypto — another way to spend more time on our laptops, on our screens, and maybe mint some tokens or NFTs to get some money on the side somehow in an online gaming world? Hasn’t the pandemic taught us that we need to spend more time in nature? (Or maybe for you, it’s taught you that you need to spend more time in crypto, so to each their own). However, a few weeks ago, our virtual CoinMarketCap team decided to play around and replace a weekly Zoom call with a team meeting in the metaverse. Using a program, we made little avatars for ourselves, chose our outfits and hair color, and walked into a virtual boardroom to start the meeting. And suddenly — I understood the metaverse. From at least ten different countries, our team was chatting, walking around, playing ridiculous mini-games, redecorating, moving around pianos and picnic tables, all in a virtual world from the safety of our homes — it may have been the first time that we were able to recreate what it would be like to actually meet in person. So this Thanksgiving, thank your loved ones, eat your turkey, and if distance forces you to do any of those things virtually — why not try it out in the metaverse?[thread]( on Twitter about Bitcoin. Now, Snowden is no Elon Musk — he can’t just tweet the word "Bitcoin" and see the price rise by a gajillion percent. Instead, Snowden tweeted a very specific warning to the crypto community — you can’t trust a wealthy venture capitalist who shills centralized cryptos (of which they have a large bag)...while also "warning" you against Bitcoin. This scenario is so specific you have to imagine that it happened to Snowden at least three times before he wrote this tweet, right? How many times does a VC bro have to tell you how cool a new altcoin is (while simultaneously telling you that Bitcoin is dangerous) before you’ll go out and tweet it? Snowden has commented on BTC a few times in the past (especially one oft-cited [interview]( where he says that "one day capital-B Bitcoin will be gone," while cryptocurrency in general will remain) — but that’s not his only brush with crypto. Snowden’s second tweet in his new crypto thread reminds the public that he has not only known about crypto for over ten years, but actually used Bitcoin to pay for the servers that transferred information to journalists during his NSA whistleblowing times. While this isn’t new information, it’s still something cool to be reminded about — Edward Snowden used crypto to help spread knowledge about government surveillance, paying with Bitcoin to facilitate the exchange of information online in private enough way that he felt safe. It’s also a nice reminder that there are interesting crypto nuggets being tweeted by people on Twitter other than Elon Musk. Today's Top Stories BTC stagnates as ETH races higher Bitcoin is stagnating as a number of smaller cryptocurrencies start to show strength. While BTC is down 0.43% over the past 24 hours, ETH has raced up by 2.65%. Other notable performers include Crypto.com Coin, which has risen by 18% over the same timeframe. According to Michaël van de Poppe's crypto consultancy Eight Global, BTC is getting primed for a bullish breakout. But there are some looming threats for Bitcoin — not least because the dollar is showing strength. [Here's the latest.]( Constitution DAO is shutting down ConstitutionDAO has announced it is shutting down. The decentralized autonomous organization had launched an audacious bid to buy a rare copy of the U.S. Constitution — one of 13 left in existence from the 1700s. In recent days, those behind the organization had vowed to explore alternative options to keep the community alive. But in a new update, they said "building and maintaining an ongoing project is not something that we as a core team are able to support."

The hamster would first select a digital asset to trade by running in his "decision wheel," and then run through a buy or sell tunnel. Mr Goxx had earned €98 over the course of his career and was up 19.72%. "Mr Goxx has brought joy to people all across the globe and reminded us not to take life too seriously," his owners said. [Tributes have been paid.]( NFT is Word of the Year for 2021 Collins Dictionary has unveiled its word of the year for 2021: NFTs. The gatekeepers to the English language have reported an explosion in mentions of non-fungible tokens over the past year. Alex Beecroft, the MD of Collins Learning, said it is rare for an abbreviation to have such a "remarkable ascendancy," adding: "NFTs seem to be everywhere, from the arts sections to the financial pages and in galleries and auction houses and across social media platforms." [What also made the list?]( Dollar Tree annoys Bitcoiners Dollar Tree is raising most of its prices to $1.25 — prompting a swift reaction from crypto enthusiasts. The store had sold products for a flat fee of $1 for 35 years, but this left it unable to sell a number of customer favorites. Some Bitcoiners say the move is proof that inflation is spiraling out of control. BTC maximalist Mike Alfred tweeted: "You know hyperinflation is going into overdrive when everything at Dollar Tree costs $1.25. Buy #Bitcoin."

The exchange says its users will no longer be able to purchase ADA from December 26, and staking rewards will be discontinued from December 31. Customers will still be able to hold ADA, but selling on the trading platform is going to be restricted in the first quarter of 2022. An "evolving regulatory environment" has been blamed for the restrictions — and TRON is also affected. [Here's our article.]( Thanks for reading! Have a great day — more news tomorrow!
