Tesla’s Elon Musk Wants Coinbase to Become DOGE-Friendly
Tesla CEO and unabashed dogecoin fan Elon Musk wants the Coinbase exchange to end its “No DOGE Allowed” policy and list the meme-based cryptocurrency.
Musk tweeted an exclamatory “Yes” on Saturday after a Twitter user asked the billionaire investor whether Coinbase should enable the Shiba Inu-represented cryptocurrency on its platform.
A listing on Coinbase would expose dogecoin to a whole new breed of investor and thus unleash its potential. That’s because the U.S.-regulated exchange is considered synonymous with institutional investors and high net worth individuals. Tesla bought bitcoin worth $1.5 billion in February via Coinbase.

GTMOBlob: Ein Blockchain-basiertes Ökosystem für die medizinische Versorgung
Derzeit werden alle medizinischen Informationssysteme mit Blick auf medizinische Einrichtungen verwaltet und betrieben. Um die Privatsphäre der Patienten zu schützen, ist die Weitergabe und der Austausch von Informationen außerhalb medizinischer Einrichtungen grundsätzlich nicht erlaubt, mit Ausnahme von Patienten, die den Zugang und die Einsicht in ihre persönlichen Daten beantragen. Ein solches einrichtungsorientiertes System zur Verwaltung medizinischer Patienteninformationen führt unweigerlich zu einer Fragmentierung medizinischer Daten zwischen verschiedenen Krankenhäusern, und die Fragmentierung medizinischer Daten verringert die Qualität medizinischer Dienstleistungen. Der steigende Bedarf an medizinischen Informationen im Bereich der medizinischen Forschung und der…

Uniswap V3 Introduces New License to Spoil Future SUSHIs
Uniswap has licensed the third iteration of its code bank in an apparent move to ward off would-be copycats. The white paper for v3 of the decentralized exchange (DEX) was released Tuesday. In a possible nod to rival project SushiSwap – which copied Hayden Adams’ creation bit by bit – the Brooklyn, N.Y.-based team’s blog post included one section detailing a “business source license” that acts as a time delay for commercial use of the code “for up to two years.” After that point, the code will remain in an open-source GPL license “into…

If Bitcoin Starts Closing Below the 50-Day SMA It May Mean Deeper Pullback Ahead
Bitcoin fell sharply on Sunday, dipping well below the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) support for the first time in six months. While the decline looks typical of a bull market correction, it could be extended further if prices find acceptance under the 50-day SMA, according to one analyst. “The loss of [bullish] momentum is only short-term in nature, but we would view consecutive closes below the 50-day SMA as a reason to move to the sidelines,” Katie Stockton, technical analyst and managing partner of Fairlead Strategies, told CoinDesk in…
