OKX Embraces Bitcoin NFTs, Bitwise ETF Wallet Draws Donations, Ronaldo Connects with NFT Holders
Summary:
This news summary covers OKX's intensified interest in Bitcoin NFTs, Bitwise's public revealing of their ETF wallet which led to numerous community donations, and Cristiano Ronaldo's interaction with his NFT holders during a Binance sponsored event. It also discusses how the game 'Doom' has been integrated into Dogecoin's blockchain, and OpenSea's openness towards potential acquisition.
The latest newsletter reveals OKX's newfound interest in Bitcoin-oriented Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs), the monetary gifts pouring into Bitwise's Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF) wallet, and football legend Cristiano Ronaldo's camaraderie with the owners of his NFTs. Additionally, the classic 90s video game Doom has intriguingly infiltrated Dogecoin's blockchain, while NFT trading platform OpenSea keeps its doors wide open for future acquisition endeavors.
While some critics perceive Bitcoin Ordinals as spam, cryptocurrency exchange OKX firmly believes otherwise. OKX has expressed its robust support towards Bitcoin NFTs by declaring its intention to incorporate Atomicals and Runes into its market. It also has plans to back Doginals, being the Dogecoin equivalent of Ordinals. Lau, OKX's spokesperson, emphasized the legitimacy of every transaction on unrestricted networks like Bitcoin, as long as they abide by consensus rules and transaction fees, thus dislodging the belief of any transaction being spammy on such open platforms.
Beyond that, Bitwise, an asset management titan, has invited the public to audit its Bitcoin (BTC) ETF's transactions and holdings by revealing its wallet address on January 24. In no time, the wallet was showered with a multitude of financial contributions and messages from the crypto globe, aggregating to over 16,000 inscriptions valued roughly around $6,000. These inscriptions spanned across two RSIC airdrops, a Bitcoin Punk, a single Bitcoin Burial, and more.
Famed footballer Cristiano Ronaldo delivered on his commitment to his NFT community during a training session sponsored by Binance. Ronaldo offered these NFT owners some professional football tips and displayed his skills openly. Ronaldo, a brand ambassador for Binance NFTs since 2022, emphasized that he always wanted to immerse his followers in unique experiences and access to his world.
Using Dogecoin's Ordinals protocol, a software developer managed to etch the freely distributable version of the '90s first-person shooting game Doom into Dogecoin's blockchain. This enables anyone with a computer or mobile device to engage with this timeless game directly on the blockchain. According to the developer, who goes by the name Mini Doge, this was a celebratory gesture for Doom's 30th anniversary.
On another note, OpenSea, a leading NFT marketplace, is seemingly not averse to potential acquisition offers. OpenSea's CEO, Devin Finzer, communicated that although there aren't any immediate plans for an acquisition, the company would definitely contemplate it if an optimal alliance opportunity arises.
