LBank Exchange Will List Fief (FIEF) On February 8, 2023

07 Feb 2023

Judge John Dorsey has delayed his decision on whether to appoint an independent examiner in the FTX case. At the latest hearing, Dorsey acknowledged that the cost to debtors could reach tens of millions of dollars. Currently, the bankruptcy judge is hopeful that the issue will be resolved through a mutually agreed upon solution between both parties. A representative for the U.S. Department of Justice’s Trustee contended, however, that the appointment of an independent examiner was mandated by Congress and no longer within Dorsey’s authority.

Three days ago, Bitcoin.com News reported on the U.S. Trustee in the FTX bankruptcy case and the government’s request to appoint an independent examiner. At the latest hearing, FTX’s lawyers from Sullivan & Cromwell argued that the endeavor could be costly.

John J. Ray III, FTX’s new CEO, estimated that expenses could reach between $90 million and $100 million. James Bromley of Sullivan & Cromwell said, “It’s just going to result in duplicated effort and a significant amount of expense. We don’t have enough money to pay back all of our creditors.”

Bromley maintained that there is “no evidence” that any outside professionals would be more impartial than FTX’s current experts. FTX debtors have a number of experts working on the case including the cybersecurity firm Sygnia. FTX’s executives and legal teams are collaborating with criminal investigators and top government regulators.

Ray, FTX’s new CEO, earned roughly $690,000 for his work last year and continued to work during Christmas and the holiday season. Juliet Sarkessian, representing the U.S. Trustee, characterized the FTX situation as a “dumpster fire” and emphasized that the appointment of an examiner was mandated by Congress in these circumstances.

Sarkessian’s comments align with the letter sent to the court by senators Cynthia Lummis (R-WY), Thom Tillis (R-NC), Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), and John Hickenlooper (D-CO). The senators urged the court to appoint an independent examiner, emphasizing that numerous questions “remain unanswered.” Sarkessian believes that an examiner may uncover information that would not be discovered otherwise and could reveal any wrongdoing by specific FTX employees.

During his testimony, FTX CEO Ray described the bankruptcy as “pure hell” when he listed his expenses from 2022. He also noted that FTX was unlike anything he had ever encountered and that former FTX executives did not maintain “a single list of anything.”

The graph token surged by over 35% so far on Tuesday, as markets continued to be buoyed by the growth of its ecosystem. Since allowing integrations to new blockchains, prices of the indexing protocol’s native token have jumped by over 200% from 2022 lows. Litecoin was also higher today, breaking a three-day losing streak.

Tuesday saw the graph (GRT) extend its recent bull run, climbing by over 35% in today’s session.

GRT/USD rose to an intraday peak of $0.1848 earlier today, a day after prices hit a low of $0.1278.

As a result of this move, GRT/USD jumped to its strongest point since May 17, last year.

Overall and as of writing, GRT is up by approximately 100.63% in the last seven days, and this comes after bouncing from a support at $0.090.

These gains have resulted in the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) moving deep into overbought territory, with a current reading of 87.03.

Bulls have already moved to secure profits, which has led to GRT falling from its earlier high.

Litecoin (LTC), on the other hand, snapped a three-day losing streak, moving back towards recent highs.

Following a low of $95.57 on Monday, LTC/USD jumped back above $100.00 on Tuesday, hitting a high of $100.13 in the process.

Today’s rebound in price sees litecoin edge towards a resistance level at $101.75, and closer to last Wednesday’s peak of $102.65.

Similar to GRT, this point was the highest point LTC had hit since May, when the token traded above $106.00.

A big part of this is due to the 14-day RSI, which is nearing a ceiling at 66.00, with a current reading of 64.53.

Should price strength reach this point, LTC bulls could abandon previous positions, and instead capture the day’s gains.

PRESS RELEASE. INTERNET CITY, DUBAI, Feb. 7, 2023 – LBank Exchange, a global digital asset trading platform, will list Fief (FIEF) on February 8, 2023. For all users of LBank Exchange, the FIEF/USDT trading pair will be officially available for trading at 6:00 UTC on February 8, 2023.

Fief Protocol is the decentralized application layer above the Fiefverse, an open-world voxel RPG. Its native token FIEF will be listed on LBank Exchange at 6:00 UTC on February 8, 2023, to further expand its global reach and help it achieve its vision.

Introducing Fief Protocol

Fief Protocol features a suite of decentralized applications (dapps) that are specifically tailored for NFT gaming and the metaverse.

With a focus on user experience, the dapps of Fief Protocol allow players to seamlessly trade or earn rewards with the in-game assets that exist in their wallets. These dapps work either to reward players of Fief’s own metaverse or incentivize players from external projects to adopt Fief as their primary trading platform.

Unique to Fief Protocol are Influence Points (IP), a non-transferrable and off-chain currency that draws inspiration from in-game currencies found across popular web2 game titles. With IP, Fief Protocol is able to add an additional gating and reward mechanism into their dapps that allows the platform to attract users and liquidity while maintaining sustainable alignment with the Fief economy.

Fief Protocol is built on top of the Fiefverse, an open-world voxel RPG that lets players take control of a unique Avatar to explore, battle, craft, and more. The Fiefverse acts as a constant and growing sink for IP, further supporting its utility within the Fief Protocol dapp layer.

While the main Fiefverse game title is in development, the team is planning to release a series of mini-games, starting with a Wave Defense title in Q1 2023. These mini-games are free-to-play and reward players with IP in addition to other in-game items.

Fief Protocol currently features its FIEF Staking dapp and the Fief Shop, which allows users to purchase Fiefverse items with IP. In the coming weeks, Fief Protocol will be launching Fief Chat, a forum and live messaging app built on top of Influence Points and Avatars, and Loot Farms, an IP-gated staking dapp that features numerous reward types.

About FIEF Token

FIEF is the official utility token of Fief Protocol. FIEF can be staked to unlock voting rights and earn DeFi & game rewards.

The primary use case of FIEF is the perpetual production of IP when staked. Currently, each staked FIEF produces 0.03 IP per day. Stakers of FIEF enjoy a constant stream of in-game currency rewards that they can spend freely. In time, staked FIEF will earn voting rights to dictate the distribution of ETH fees generated via dapps on Fief Protocol to Loot Farms.

This system aligns the demand to buy and stake FIEF with the desire of third-party metaverse projects to drive ETH rewards to their in-game assets, including fungible in-game currencies and NFTs.

FIEF has a total supply of 500 million (i.e., 500,000,000) with a current circulating supply of 128,180,693. More information on the supply and distribution of FIEF can be found in the project’s official documentation.

FIEF token will be listed on LBank Exchange at 6:00 UTC on February 8, 2023, investors who are interested in the Fief investment can easily buy and sell it on LBank Exchange by then. The listing of FIEF token on LBank Exchange will undoubtedly help it further expand its business and draw more attention in the market.
