“Algorithm + Credit” Rebuild the Value Foundation of DeFi

Published

on

DeFi still has higher attention, with rapid technological innovation and continuous expansion of application scope, The goal of DeFi is undoubtedly to build a more effective, free, and transparent financial ecology. However, finance always develops with money and brings value exchange. Therefore, whether it is a decentralized scenario or a mass application toward reality in the future, stable cryptocurrency is crucial for users, so as to realize the dream of making virtual ideas become reality.

For this reason, in the field of cryptocurrency, many teams have been exploring stable currency. According to CryptoQuant data, stabilecoin holdings on global crypto exchanges hit a high record of $9.8 billion as of March 28, 2021. At the same time, the total stable currency market capitalization once topped $80 billion, according to CoinGecko, the current daily trading volume of all stable currencies is about $118.340 billion. Also, CoinMarketCap shows there are 16 mainstream stable currencies now.

The stable currency is illusory?

In general, both USDT and DAI are still on their way and haven’t really achieved the goal of “stable currency”. Tether’s White Paper said: “Tether is a decentralized cryptocurrency, but we are not a perfectly decentralized company. We store all of our assets as a centralized pledge.” Therefore, USDT is just borrowing the name of the cryptocurrency, but it is not really decentralized.

DAI, developed by MakerDao, is the largest decentralized stable currency on Ethereum. It is issued with the guarantee of the full amount of assets on the blockchain. It is only generated in the application scenario based on the mortgage, and the market value of the mortgage assets is the ceiling of it. Therefore, these stable currencies are illusory in a sense.

Will algorithmic stable currencies finally fail?

Now let’s take a look at the development process of algorithmic stable currencies, known as the holy grail of cryptocurrency. From stable currency1.0 represented by AMPL, stable currency2.0 represented by Basis Cash to stable currency 3.0: Frax Finance, all of them have gone through a period of growth. However, the stable currency reality is that we live under the sense of “ever-changing”, and stable value is still in the ideal.

AMPL algorithmic stable currency is used to increase or decrease the supply of AMPL in order to keep the price of AMPL around $ 1. Ampleforth uses Rebase operation to change the AMPL held by all users as a whole. The Rebase price is based on the average price of the past 24 hours. When this price is above $1.05, the AMPL balance in all users’ wallets increases simultaneously. At prices below $0.95, all users’ AMPL balances decrease simultaneously. During this process, the percentage of AMPL held by users in the supply does not change. It looks like everything is fine on its own, but when the price of cryptos falls to the point where deflation is needed, both the quantity and price of coins held by users are falling, so users face a double whammy.

So it’s easy to create a death spiral. Similarly, when crypto price rises, it is easy to create an upward death spiral. Thus it can be seen that this price model only has two possibilities: the price continues to fall, get into the infinite death circle and leave the market, and the price rises steadily to around 1USDT; Prices rising, the AMPL has been printing (dividend), AMPL reserve disappeared, crypto began to value return, people in loss cannot gain AMPL, prices will fall back near 1 USDT (need funds continue getting into the market), so it is difficult to see AMPL achieve speculation, meanwhile achieve stability, And stability is a necessary condition for a stable currency.

Basis Cash, as represented by 2.0, includes three tokens, Basis Cash (BAC), Basis Share (BAS), and Basis Bond (BAB), among which BAB is non-transferable. The BAC is the stable currency, anchored to $1; BAS is an equity token, and newly-minted BAC tokens can be allocated. BAB is a bond. There is nothing wrong with Basis Cash based on the algorithm itself, but without a good application scenario, relying on the debt market itself is dangerous. There is actually a problem with debt financing in traditional markets, where those “too big to fail” entities can take on the risk of impunity through socialized bailout costs. It is entirely possible that Basis Cash could go into a debt spiral, in which case there would be no willing contributors, the debt would accumulate and the protocol would collapse.

Finance FX is the first partial algorithmic stable currency project, adding the concept of using “partially stable” as a collateral asset to the existing algorithmic stable currency. There are two types of tokens in Frax, the stabilization token Frax, and the governance token FXS. Frax costs USDC and FXS, but only USDC during creation. The initial mortgage rate is 100%, that is, all USDC mortgage is used to cast FRAX. After that, the mortgage rate will be adjusted every hour. If the price of FRAX is more than $1, the mortgage rate will be reduced and FXS ‘share in it will be increased. Raise the mortgage rate if the Frax falls below $1. The mortgage rate is adjusted every hour by 0.25% each time. But its high mortgage ratio leads to the lack of user appeal, its currency numbers and market supply have been stagnant.

Although the above three generations of stable currencies seem to be making breakthroughs and innovations, they do not give a satisfactory answer on how to solve the credit problem. However, algorithm stable currency that cannot solve the credit problem is useless. Bitcoin came into being to solve the problem of credit, but the stable currency, as an important extension of its development, has not inherited the legacy of credit, and is still stuck in the algorithm.

Crypto Credit Network (CCN)

In the financial field, credit is the foundation and the lifeblood. This is true of both traditional and modern financial systems. In the traditional financial system, credit mainly relies on the guarantee of laws and institutions. Apart from the high operation cost, the “credit crisis” gradually exposed by financial intermediaries is the fundamental reason why people urgently embrace the blockchain technology. Algorithm stable currency is going to help cryptos solve the credit problems, guaranteeing machine credit by algorithm, which does not rely on third-party subjective will and makes transaction transparent, efficient, reliable, and stable, let people who do not have to establish credit relationship between each other to achieve cooperation and free trading, reduce the cost of credit.

However, the world of blockchain cryptocurrency is a chaotic existence without a role name. To change from chaos to brightness, each individual needs to have his or her own identity, so that we can obtain the faith like phoenix nirvana. The CCN gives each individual a unique CID (Crypto Identification), which is the most basic rule in the Crypto world. To build a new crypto world of order, autonomy, and equality.

The construction of CCN not only takes blockchain technology as support, but also has a reasonable economic incentive mechanism. Reasonable use of incentive mechanism is an effective means to stimulate all parties to participate in the construction of CCN.

A sound incentive mechanism, reasonable mechanism design from the perspective of leading efficiency and fair governance, can make the value generated by credit information flow effectively to the value provider in the blockchain world, punish the evil behavior, and resolve the conflict between individual interests and collective interests. It makes the individual’s behavior of pursuing individual interests unified with the goal of maximizing collective value.

Therefore, CCN can further clarify the economic interests of each participant and the overall interests of the network, so as to fully mobilize the enthusiasm of each participant and guarantee great development of CCN from the source.

The CCN consists of three different identities: Creator, Guardian, and Angel, all of them have established screening mechanisms. Only firm believers can obtain the CCN identity. Early believers are required to contribute to maintaining the stability of early CCN by burning GAC tokens. Therefore, they are not only holders of GaeaCoin, but also determined preachers and builders. When GaeaCoin issues additional shares, it will also receive a corresponding percentage of GAC tokens as a reward.

The establishment of this system aims to provide every GaeaCoin participant with the opportunity to contribute to the community construction, and to create a healthy crypto community culture of dedication and autonomy through consensus, symbiosis, co-construction, and sharing.

In CCN, although the identity is different, the residents on the chain of CCN build the initial transaction link according to their CID address, and constantly expand CCN on the chain. Open CID needs to be recommended by the network resident, once the link is formed, it cannot be changed forever. Each of the three different identities requires a different number of GAC tokens to burn, which can be viewed on the GaeaCoin network. GaeaCoin network residents have different rights according to their status.

The integration with the DEX: OxySwap has pioneered a full range of applications

There is a natural interdependence between exchange and stable currency. The exchange has always been an important part of crypto digital asset market, and it is also the first application place of stable currency. Like Binance with BUSD and Huobi with HUSD, OKEx also launched USDK on June 3, 2019. Traditional CEXs are fiat currencies, where fiat currencies are exchanged for cryptos. If you want to buy crypto digital assets, you need to top up fiat currency, which undoubtedly increases the economic and time costs of investors in the process of exchange. The emergence of a stable currency can not only solve the above problems but also effectively avoid legal risks in the process of the transaction.

As it should be, the integration of GaeaCoin ecology and OxySwap not only lay a solid foundation for stable currency: GAC token application, but also creates opportunities for it to open up more and wider application scenarios.

OxySwap is a decentralized exchange running on the BSC with a collection of DEX liquidity mining, which offers functions of exchange, liquidity, market making, and so on. The strength of OxySwap guarantees the usages of the stable currency: GAC.

GAC will lead a brighter way

GaeaCoin algorithm stable currency: GAC dares to face the challenge, according to the industry news, GAC praises is not only relatively stable from the concept, but also to really put into application. In addition to GAC (GaeaCoin), GaeaCoin ecology also includes GAB (GaeaCoin Bond) and GASH (GaeaCoin Share), which serve to maintain the stability of GAC. GaeaCoin Ecology also integrates GaeaCoin protocol, algorithm, robustness, price response, encryption, and other technologies, superposed with the DeFi ecology of Crypto Credit Network (CCN), OxySwap (DEX), and so on, providing a realistic solution for GAC, and leads it to move towards the real “stability”.

The integration of CCN and OxySwap points out the direction for the application of algorithmic stable currency. In fact, we can already feel the power of the GaeaCoin algorithm stable currency, and once it is used at a large scale, the ideal stable currency is expected to arrive ahead of time. DeFi will also build on this basis, using currency, lending, spot trading, and other components to build continuously upgraded Lego of DeFi.

GaeaCoin’s move directly challenges the world’s centralized stable currency giants such as USDT and USDC, but compared to the previous challenges of AMPL, BAC, and FRAX, this well-prepared challenge looks more anticipated!

Asante Babers Warns of the Everyday Cybersecurity Habits Putting Millions at Risk

Published

on

Cybersecurity engineer Asante Babers, based in the United States, is encouraging people to review their everyday digital habits before a simple mistake becomes a costly problem.

Colorado, USA, August 12th, 2026, ZEX PR WIRE, Most people believe cybercriminals are only interested in large companies or wealthy individuals. According to cybersecurity engineer Asante Babers, that misconception is one of the biggest security risks people face today.

After more than 20 years designing and strengthening security systems across enterprise, government, and mission-critical environments, Babers says the majority of cyber incidents begin with ordinary decisions made by ordinary people.

“The biggest threat isn’t always a sophisticated attack,” Babers says. “More often, it’s a simple habit that someone never thought needed to change.”

Industry research supports that view:

  • More than 80% of data breaches involve stolen or weak passwords.

  • Over 90% of successful cyberattacks begin with phishing or social engineering.

  • Nearly 60% of people reuse passwords across multiple accounts.

  • Around 70% of security incidents involve some form of human error.

  • More than half of internet users have not enabled multi-factor authentication on their most important accounts.

Babers believes those numbers show that cybersecurity is no longer just an IT issue.

“Every online account, every mobile device, and every email inbox is part of your personal security,” he says. “The habits you develop every day matter more than most people realise.”

The Mistake People Keep Making

One of the most common misconceptions Babers sees is the belief that installing security software is enough.

“Technology helps,” he explains. “But software can’t replace good judgement.”

He says many people unknowingly create unnecessary risk by reusing passwords, delaying software updates, or clicking on links without taking a moment to verify where they came from.

“Cybercriminals don’t always break into systems,” Babers says. “Many times, they’re invited in because someone trusted the wrong email or reused the wrong password.”

A Simple Cybersecurity Self-Check

Take a few minutes to answer these questions honestly.

  • Do you use a different password for your most important online accounts?

  • Have you enabled multi-factor authentication on your email and banking accounts?

  • Do you regularly install updates on your phone and computer?

  • Would you recognise the warning signs of a phishing email or text message?

  • Do you know what you would do if one of your online accounts was compromised?

  • Have you reviewed your online security settings within the past year?

  • Do you regularly back up your important files?

  • Are you careful before clicking unexpected links or downloading attachments?

What Your Answers Mean

If you answered yes to most of the questions, you have built strong habits that reduce your exposure to common cyber threats. Continue reviewing your accounts and stay informed as technology changes.

If you answered yes to about half of them, you already have a good foundation, but there are still opportunities to strengthen your security. Focus first on creating unique passwords and enabling multi-factor authentication wherever it is available.

If you answered no to most of the questions, now is a good time to take action. Start with your email account, update your passwords, enable additional account protection, and make sure your devices are running the latest software.

What to Do Next

Babers recommends focusing on a few practical habits rather than trying to solve everything at once.

Start by replacing any passwords that are reused across multiple accounts. Turn on multi-factor authentication for your email and financial accounts. Keep your devices updated, and pause before opening unexpected emails, text messages, or links.

“Security isn’t about becoming an expert,” Babers says. “It’s about slowing down long enough to make better decisions.”

He also encourages people to have conversations about online safety with family members, especially those who may be less familiar with today’s digital threats.

“One simple conversation can prevent a serious problem,” he says. “Awareness is still one of the strongest forms of protection we have.”

Call to Action

Take this self-check today and identify one cybersecurity habit you can improve this week. Then share it with a friend or family member. Small changes made consistently can significantly reduce your risk and help create safer online habits for everyone.

About Asante Babers

Asante Babers is a cybersecurity engineer with more than 20 years of experience designing, operating, and strengthening security systems across enterprise, government, and mission-critical environments. His work focuses on building resilient security architectures, modernising legacy infrastructure, reducing technical debt, and helping organisations and individuals better understand cybersecurity through practical, real-world education.

Press Release

Knot and Venmo Team Up to Make Venmo the Effortless Way to Pay

Published

on

New York City, NY, USA, August 12th, 2026, FinanceWire

Knot, the leading merchant connectivity platform, today announced they are partnering with Venmo to make it easy for millions of users to set Venmo as their saved payment method wherever they shop. Knot lets Venmo users make Venmo the way they pay at some of their favorite merchants, directly from the Venmo app and without manually entering their details.

Putting Venmo Balances to Work

From the Venmo app, users add Venmo as their saved payment method at the places they already shop in just a few taps, with no need to update payment information site by site. Depending on the merchant, users can either link their Venmo account to Pay with Venmo at checkout or save their Venmo Debit Card,¹ enabling a fast and easy way to spend with Venmo, all powered by Knot.

For Venmo, getting placed as the default payment method at high-frequency merchants keeps it top of wallet and helps drive everyday spend. It is one of the most direct ways to move Venmo from an occasional choice to a user’s go-to way to pay, deepening engagement across the Venmo ecosystem.     

A First for Knot

The collaboration marks the first time Knot has provisioned a proprietary checkout solution as the default payment option. With Pay with Venmo, Knot extends the card-on-file capability behind CardSwitcher to a native wallet, letting users set Venmo itself as the saved way to pay, not only the card tied to it. It is a meaningful expansion of what merchant connectivity can enable and a template for bringing other proprietary payment methods to the merchants where people shop.     

Value Across the Payments Ecosystem

The relationship reflects how Knot creates value on all three sides of a transaction. Users get a simpler, more connected way to pay. Collaborators like Venmo drive adoption of their payment methods and capture more of their users’ everyday spend. And merchants benefit from having a payment method on file, which means fewer failed payments and less involuntary churn.

Knot works with financial institutions and fintechs of every size, from large banks and credit unions to fast-growing fintechs, on card switching. The Venmo collaboration extends that footprint to one of the most widely used consumer payment brands in the country.

*The Venmo Mastercard is issued by The Bancorp Bank, N.A., pursuant to license by Mastercard International Incorporated. Card may be used everywhere Mastercard is accepted. The Bancorp Bank, N.A. is issuer of the Card only and not responsible for the associated accounts or other products, services, or offers from Venmo.

About Knot

Knot is the leading merchant connectivity platform, simplifying how consumers, merchants, and financial institutions interact. CardSwitcher is the foundation of Knot’s product suite, letting users update and manage card-on-file payments across hundreds of merchants. Building on the same connectivity infrastructure, TransactionLink delivers SKU-level transaction data, and SubManager gives users a single place to view and manage their subscriptions. By removing friction at every step, Knot helps financial institutions grow engagement, loyalty, and spend.

Face HIIT Celebrates Thousands of Women Who Have Embraced Healthy Aging Through Facial Fitness

Published

on

Growing community highlights the power of education, consistency, and shared experiences while introducing a new resource featuring participant testimonials.

New York, NY, August 12th, 2026, ZEX PR WIREFace HIIT is celebrating a growing global community of women who are embracing healthy aging through facial fitness, education, and consistent self-care. As interest in natural, non-invasive wellness continues to grow, the company is also expanding the ways prospective participants can learn about the Face HIIT experience by introducing a dedicated testimonials page featuring firsthand stories from women who have completed the program.

Founded by anatomy expert Sadie Nardini, Face HIIT has helped more than 75,000 women build sustainable facial fitness routines while growing a community of more than 2 million followers. Rather than promoting quick fixes, the program focuses on helping women understand how facial muscles, connective tissue, posture, and daily habits work together to support healthy aging.

“One of the most rewarding parts of this work is hearing women talk about what they’ve learned,” said Sadie Nardini. “Many people come to Face HIIT expecting to learn a few facial exercises. What they often discover is a completely new understanding of how their face works and how small, consistent habits can make a meaningful difference over time.”

Unlike many beauty trends that emphasize temporary solutions, Face HIIT encourages participants to build practical routines rooted in anatomy and movement science. The program combines targeted facial muscle exercises with myofascial release techniques to help women better understand the relationship between muscle health, facial tension, and overall facial wellness.

Research has shown that adults lose approximately 3 to 8 percent of muscle mass per decade after age 30. While discussions about aging often focus primarily on the body, or skincare, Face HIIT teaches that healthy facial muscles and reduced tension also contribute to facial support and expression.

Participant testimonials consistently reflect similar themes regardless of age or experience level. Many women describe gaining a better understanding of facial anatomy, becoming more aware of everyday tension patterns, and developing routines they genuinely enjoy maintaining. Others share that the greatest benefit has been feeling more confident because they better understand how to care for their own faces.

“Education changes everything,” Nardini said. “When women understand why they’re doing each movement, they’re much more likely to stay consistent. Lasting confidence comes from understanding how things got the way they are, and how to change it, not from constantly searching for the next trend.”

Behavioral research has long demonstrated that small, repeatable habits are more likely to become lasting routines than dramatic lifestyle changes. Face HIIT embraces that philosophy by encouraging participants to practice consistently instead of striving for perfection.

The Face HIIT community has also become an important source of encouragement for newcomers. Members regularly share personal experiences, celebrate milestones, and support one another as they build healthy routines at their own pace.

As part of its continued commitment to education and transparency, Face HIIT recently launched a dedicated testimonials page where prospective participants can explore firsthand accounts from women who have completed the program. The new resource highlights recurring themes found throughout the community, including increased confidence, visible face and neck improvements, a deeper understanding of facial anatomy, and the value of consistent daily practice. For those researching Sadie Nardini reviews, the testimonials page offers a helpful place to learn about real participant experiences and better understand what they can expect from the Face HIIT method.

“As our community continues to grow, what inspires me most isn’t simply hearing about results,” Nardini added. “It’s hearing women say they feel empowered because they understand their faces in a completely different way. That knowledge stays with them, and that’s what makes this work so meaningful.”

Face HIIT remains committed to helping women embrace healthy aging through education, movement, and realistic wellness practices that can be maintained for years to come.

About Sadie Nardini

Sadie Nardini is the founder and creator of Face HIIT, an anatomy-based facial fitness method designed to help women support healthy aging through movement and education. Drawing on decades of experience studying anatomy, exercise physiology, and movement, she developed Face HIIT after recognizing that facial muscles deserve the same thoughtful training as the rest of the body. Today, Sadie educates women around the world on facial wellness, empowering them with practical knowledge and sustainable habits that help them age confidently.

About Face HIIT

Face HIIT is a facial fitness program that combines targeted facial muscle exercises, myofascial release techniques, simpler skincare, and educational resources to support healthy face and neck aging naturally. Built on principles of anatomy and movement science, the program helps women understand how facial muscles, posture, and tension patterns influence facial appearance over time. With more than 75,000 participants and a community of over 2 million followers, Face HIIT provides courses, coaching, and educational content that encourage women to build lasting wellness routines and embrace aging with confidence.
