CoinMarketCap News, Mar 8: Think the Fight Against Inflation is Over? Think Again

Vitalik Buterin Dumps $700,000 of Memecoins — and Hodlers Are NOT Happy

## What is SHIKOKU? (SHIK)

SHIKOKU is a decentralized memecoin experiment. The goals of SHIKOKU are multi-faceted:

* To create the Shikoku Inu Decentralized Ecosystem (SIDE) of applications and tools.
* To educate investors about self-custody in an engaging way.
* To be a driving force for good, via the Shikokuments.

The SHIKOKU token is the sole and native token that will be utilized across the SIDE. SHIKOKU begun as a decetralized memecoin experiment, but will gradually transition to the centerpiece of a large ecosystem that uplifts its' community and provides a safe space for those learning more about DeFi.

## What sets SHIKOKU apart?

Many Shiba Inu clones have launched, without definite qualities, plans of development and action, and the drive to execute a utility that people want to, and feel comfortable using. SHIKOKU launches, not just as a "SHIBA KILLER", but as the start a global movement to take over the industry and change it for good. SHIKOKU will be the only token to drive this movement, and attention will not be diluted into other means. This single, focused approach is what defines SHIKOKU.

## Who Are the Founders and Owners of SHIKOKU?

The anonymous creator of SHIKOKU refers to himself as Shikoshi Sanada. Very little is known about him, similar to the founder of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto. In his V1.0.0 whitepaper about SHIKOKU and the side, he mentioned that SHIKOKU has no permanent allotted
owner, instead, it is owned by all that wish to own it. To further push this point, after providing 10ETH initial liquidity paired to all tokens, he burnt the entire liquidity, and published the keys to the developer wallet for all to add and use, in an unseen before way. By doing this, although SHIKOKU was founded by one, it is now owned by all.

## How Many SHIKOKU Are There in Circulation?

SHIKOKU launched on the Ethereum Blockchain on November 7, 2022. The genesis token creation event created 1,000,000,000,000,000 SHIKOKU tokens. This is the max supply, and max circulating supply, no SHIKOKU tokens may ever be minted. Dedicated community members have contributed to the burn address, reducing the circulating supply.

## Shikoshi and Vitalik Buterin

As a thank you to the founder of the Ethereum Blockchain, Shikoshi gifted Ethereum Founder, Vitalik Buterin with 50% of the total supply, or 500,000,000,000,000 tokens. Shikoshi humbly requests that if Vitalik accepts this offer, that he burns 47% of the supply, donates 2% of the supply to various charity organizations, and reserves 1% to spend at his leisure.

ABBC is a blockchain platform that enables secure payment transactions, helping to facilitate retail adoption of cryptocurrencies and make shopping online with digital assets a safer, more enjoyable experience for end-users.

The platform offers three main products: a multi-platform wallet capable of supporting Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH), in addition to a variety of other native cryptocurrencies and ERC-20 tokens; an online shopping application that can be used to shop at over 50 online retailers with cryptocurrencies; and a cryptocurrency exchange platform that offers secure trading and low transaction fees.

The ABBC Coin was created to give holders the ability to govern the development of the ABBC platform by delegating voting power to chosen block producers (BPs) — who are then able to vote on governance proposals. These governance proposals can be on a range of topics but might include launching strategic partnerships, implementing new features or expanding ABBC's services to new regions. Beyond this, ABBC Coins were created as a reward system for online shoppers and can be staked for regular rewards.

ABBC is currently based on the EOSIO blockchain, which enables it to achieve up to 5,000 transactions per second (TPS) while remaining environmentally friendly due to its energy-efficient delegated proof-of-stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism.

ABBC Coin was initially known as Alibabacoin but changed its name in March 2019 following a dispute with Chinese multinational e-commerce giant Alibaba.

Strike is a DeFi lending protocol that allows users to earn interest on their cryptocurrencies by depositing them into one of several markets supported by the platform.

When a user deposits tokens to a Strike market, they receive sTokens in return. These sTokens represent the individual’s stake in the pool and can be used to redeem the underlying cryptocurrency initially deposited into the pool at any time. For example, by depositing ETH into a pool, you will receive sETH in return. Over time, the exchange rate of these sTokens to the underlying asset increases, which means you can redeem them for more of the underlying asset than you initially put in — this is how the interest is distributed.

On the flip side, borrowers can take a secured loan from any Strike pool by depositing collateral. The maximum loan-to-value (LTV) ratio varies based on the collateral asset, but currently ranges from 50 to 80%. The interest rate paid varies by borrowed asset and borrowers can face automatic liquidation if their collateral falls below a specific maintenance threshold.

So far, fan tokens have only been created by Socios, the company behind fan tokens for several other football clubs, such as PSG, and fan tokens for the UFC and car racing. Binance is leveraging the popularity of fan tokens, which give their holders ownership of the club’s governance and allow them to affect decisions, access exclusive promotions, unlock VIP rewards and gain special recognition by the club. Following the success of other fan tokens, Binance struck a deal with SS Lazio worth over 30 million euros lasting over two years, with the option to extend it for a third year. The president of Lazio expressed his satisfaction with the following statement:

“We are very satisfied with this new international collaboration. Our partnership with Binance will allow us to extend our digital presence and connect with our fans and followers from all over the world like never before.”

One can expect the success of the fan token to track the performance of the players on the pitch, with wins boosting demand and, therefore, the price.
