Odds & Sods News
As we are neck deep into Q423 life speeds up and my ability to regularly contribute to my blog declines. Apologies, I did want to bring you these Crypto news items that I found of interest:
Your favorite Enterprise Bitcoin Firm - MicroStrategy now has a patent.
On Nov. 3 '23, MicroStrategy was awarded patent #11762870. Which is for “Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer programs encoded on a computer storage medium, for optimization of memory analytics are disclosed."
For those not tracking MicroStrategy continues to add to its BTC mountain which now stands at $5.3M, is that the largest out there?
DappRadar, the #1 global dapp store, joins Theta Network as Enterprise Validator Node
You might even regularly use DappRadar in your crypto endeavors, well now they are part of the validation network for Theta. So this makes Theta's 26th out of 31 potential validators. Makes me wonder who will occupy those last few coveted spots?
Ripple Partners With Onafriq to Enable Faster Cross Border Payments to Africa
From an investment standpoint the World is courting Africa and I think Ripple has a leg up on most, for certain in my mind they do over WorldToken as its being rejected and with Sam Altman stepping down from their board it signals more trouble. Sorry, back to the point at hand Onafriq, which is a pan-African payments company which enables interoperable cross-border and domestic digital payments. The Ripple partnership opens a critical 3rd payment system for Africa and will eliminate most cross-border payment issues.
Summary News snippets will not change your life but they keep you plugged into some of the developing currents.
