Squid, a protocol specializing in cross-chain swaps, has expanded its services to facilitate liquidity routing and token swaps across the Ethereum blockchain, various Ethereum Virtual Machine blockchains, and the Cosmos ecosystem.

By integrating Axelar Network and adopting the Cosmos Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) protocol, along with a partnership with the decentralized exchange network Osmosis, Squid has broadened its capabilities to encompass tokens swaps across both EVM and Cosmos blockchain ecosystems simultaneously.

In January, Squid raised$3.5 million seed round led by North Island Ventures.

Squid’s cross-chain swap protocol

Transferring assets between EVM and Cosmos blockchains can be complex due to their inherent incompatibility. Squid, which is built on the Axelar Network, seeks to address this issue.

Squid uses Axelar’s General Message Passing (GMP) technology in conjunction with the IBC protocol. The combination enables the transport of both tokens and smart contract logic between the Cosmos and EVM ecosystems.

“By making cross-chain token swaps among both Cosmos and EVM blockchains trivial, Squid extends this vision of interoperability and lowers the barrier to economic collaboration across these ecosystems,” said Fig, the pseudonymous co-founder of Squid.

Terra Luna Classic’s Evolving Journey: Aiming to Anchor USTC at $1

Published

In the ever-shifting realm of digital currency, Terra Luna Classic takes another notable step. The community has given the green light to halt all processes involving creating and recreating their stablecoin, USTC. Their primary goal? Re-establish USTC’s parity with the dollar and reinvigorate LUNC, Terra Luna Classic’s foundational cryptocurrency. This decision not only bolsters USTC’s standing but also paves the way for big players like the crypto trading platform, Binance, to consider USTC disposal.

Proposal 11784, known as the “Halt USTC Production & Recreation,” caught the eyes and ears of many. A significant 55% endorsed the move, 38% declined, with the remainder opting for a neutral stance. Reaching this agreement wasn’t simple, especially given the myriad of voices involved. Bypassing the minimum approval mark, the community’s backing for this trajectory became evident.

Digging into the vote dynamics, it’s clear where allegiances lay. Out of 35 decision-makers, prominent entities like HappyCattyCrypto, DFLunc, 1maxfee, JESUSisLORD, StakeBin, and Lunanauts were supportive. Yet, it’s crucial to highlight that Allnodes, a dominant figure, didn’t share this enthusiasm. Although participation wasn’t at its peak, a dominant consensus emerged. With the proposal’s acceptance, platforms like Binance now can contemplate USTC disposal, as its creation processes cease. Another proposition even nudges Binance to dispose of a 50-50 split of USTC and LUNC.

However, despite these audacious moves, market indicators for both Terra Luna Classic and USTC signal turbulence. Amidst vital community updates, both digital assets witnessed downtrends. LUNC saw a modest 1% rise recently, settling at a value of $0.000057. Its 24-hour range fluctuated slightly from $0.0000566 to $0.0000582. Conversely, USTC’s performance dipped, declining 1% to a present value of $0.012. Furthermore, trade activities for USTC diminished by 36% within a day.

Whispers within the community suggest reservations about the efficacy of Terra Luna Classic’s development squad. Some speculate that they might not be adequately steering the platform, the communal treasury, or key updates.

The digital currency landscape is notoriously inconsistent, with shifts spurred by choices, market vibes, and tech developments. As Terra Luna Classic forges ahead with its initiatives, it’s uncertain how the landscape will adjust, particularly in relation to USTC’s valuation and ecosystem vitality.

Nevertheless, the essence of communal consensus can’t be overlooked. Terra Luna Classic, despite hurdles, showcases its dedication to stability and value with its USTC decision. As the crypto world morphs, the strategies of Terra Luna Classic will be under the lens of investors and aficionados. The future holds the answer to whether their endeavours align with the unpredictable ebb and flow of the crypto cosmos.
