The Gate's kid ate Warcraft - get ready, metaverse!

Hey Moni Maker 🦪

Today, in 1907, the first film reviews appeared in Variety magazine. Generally speaking, feedback is the backbone of any business. ANY BUSINESS. If people don't like your product, you won't succeed. We take this opportunity to thank our subscribers for the feedback in our chat. You are the best! 

And Digest thanks you! Let's go!

Microsoft will acquire Activision Blizzard for $95.00 per share, in an all-cash transaction valued at $68.7 billion. When the transaction closes, Microsoft will become the world’s third-largest gaming company by revenue, behind Tencent and Sony. 

The planned acquisition includes iconic franchises from Activision, Blizzard and King studios like “Warcraft,” “Diablo,” “Overwatch,” “Call of Duty” and “Candy Crush,” in addition to global eSports activities through Major League Gaming. 

Gates's deity is thoroughly preparing for the metaverse. Bill, not like we did with Windows 10, ok...? 

The OKEx exchange has changed its name to OKX. All the TG channels have already managed to make fun of it, saying, why and how, 

The exchange itself says: "To continue our commitment to the advancement of the #crypto industry and #Web3, we've rebranded to #OKX."

We didn't remove the tags, because it's more fun that way. So, waiting for the rebranding from Tether to NotScam?!

Case: Hackers used a bug in Multichain's cross-chain protocol to generate $1.34 million.

Although the bug has already been fixed for new users, old ones need to take action. 

If you're a user, get on Twitter and fix it, or you know where the dough will go.

Youck. $15 million in Ether ( that's as much as 4,600 ETH!!!) right now is being laundered through Tornado Cash, the Ethereum Mixer. That's what the on-chain data tells us. 

Tornado Cash and Ethereum Mixer are such privacy gizmos; they interfere with funds and hide the path from wallet A to wallet B, in short. 

 That's the kind of funky stuff. How about you?

Falling Knife is a trading term for a rapid drop in the price of an asset. Often used in the phrase “Trying to catch a falling knife,” which means the trader is trying to catch the bottom after a sharp drop. Very often speculators get a second bottom as a gift to the first one.
