Litecoin fell for a third consecutive session on Thursday, as the token continued to move away from recent highs. Cryptocurrencies have been mostly lower in recent days, as traders continue to fear a global recession. Cosmos also remained in the red during today’s session.
Litecoin (LTC) dropped to a ten-day low on Thursday, with the token falling for a third straight session.
Following a high of $79.20 on Wednesday, LTC/USD moved to a low of $74.82 earlier in the day’s session.
As a result of this, the token fell to its lowest point since November 29, when prices hit a bottom of $73.39.
Looking at the chart, it appears that litecoin bears are hoping to push prices towards a floor at $73.00.
This seems a possibility, especially with the 14-day relative strength index (RSI) fast approaching a floor of its own.
The index is currently tracking at 57.10, and seems to be moving towards a support point of 53.00.
Another notable token on Thursday has been cosmos (ATOM), which fell to a ten-day low earlier in the day.
ATOM/USD fell to a bottom of $9.52 on Thursday, before bulls reentered the market and bought the recent dip.
Today’s bottom saw cosmos trade at its lowest level since November 28, which was the last time the token hit its floor at $9.45.
As of writing, ATOM has mostly rebounded, and is currently trading at the $9.71 level.
In addition to this, the RSI has bounced from a floor of its own at 39.50, and is currently tracking at 41.40.
Should momentum continue in an upward direction, ATOM bulls will likely target a move above the $10.00 mark.

Over the last few weeks, there’s been a lot of information revealed surrounding the recent FTX and Alameda Research disaster. On Dec. 6, the Financial Times (FT) published documentation that shows Alameda’s investment portfolio, which alleges the company spent more than $5 billion on hundreds of investments. Some of the funds went to odd investments like a fertility company called Ivy Natal and a drone manufacturer called Brinc Drones.
During the last two years, FTX and Alameda Research spent billions on deals, sponsorships, and investments. At the end of January 2022, FTX looked colossal after it raised $400 million from investors like Softbank Vision Fund 2, Tiger Global, Temasek, Paradigm, and the Ontario Teachers’ Pension Plan Board.
After the Series C raise, FTX was valued at $32 billion and the former FTX CEO Sam Bankman-Fried (SBF) said FTX aimed to expand the firm’s “global reach.” After the revelations concerning Alameda’s balance sheet during the first week of November, FTX and SBF’s quantitative trading firm imploded.
Since then, FTX’s parent firm West Realm Shires Services, Alameda Research, and approximately 130 additional affiliated companies filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. This week on Dec. 6, 2022, FT released documentation tied to Alameda Research’s investments, which were close to 500 investments that added up to roughly $5.4 billion.
In addition to FT, The Block’s VP of research, Larry Cermak, exported the entire list of Alameda-based investments into an excel sheet. Cermak further noted that Alameda’s largest investments include Genesis Digital Assets, Anthropic, Digital Assets DA AG, K5, and IEX.
If the data is accurate, the documentation shows that Alameda invested a lot of money into blockchain projects and foundations, tokens, and non-fungible token (NFT) projects as well. This includes Hole Tokens, Polygon, Near, 1inch, Lido, Xterio, Aptos, and Yuga Labs. Polygon for instance received $50,000,000 from Maclaurin Investments Ltd., otherwise known as Alameda Ventures.
Near gathered $50 million from FTX Ventures Ltd., and Maclaurin gave Near $30,000,000. FTX Ventures gave Yuga Labs roughly $50 million and Aptos scored $74.9 million from Clifton Bay Investments, also known as Alameda Research Ventures. Alameda invested in well known funds like the Multicoin Venture Fund II and the Skybridge Capital II fund.
Money went to Chinese news companies such as Blockbeats, and O’daily News. The company invested in Paxos, Messari, Starkware, Circle, Fanatics, Magic Eden, and Sky Mavis (Axie Infinity). An Ohio-based produce and vertical farming firm called 80 Acres got $25 million and $11.5 million was funneled to a firm called Geniome.
A whopping $500 million went to the artificial intelligence (AI) research firm Anthropic and $1.5 million went to a fertility venture called Ivy Natal. FT described Alameda’s portfolio as a “disparate bundle of nearly 500 illiquid investments split across 10 holding companies.” The FT author further notes that “FT makes no claim as to the data’s accuracy or completeness” as far as the documentation of Alameda’s investments are concerned.
What do you think about all the alleged investments Alameda made? Let us know what you think about this subject in the comments section below.

Central Bank of Brazil Confirms It Will Run a Pilot Test for Its CBDC This Year

PRESS RELEASE. The stablecoin, “SFUSD”, will be launched on the 10th of December, 2022. SFUSD is revolutionizing the way digital money can be sent and spent online and in stores worldwide by being cheaper, faster, and more secure. Each SFUSD can be converted into USD at a 1:1 ratio. SFUSD can be spent, sent, or exchanged across the globe in a matter of seconds.
SFUSD is DIFFERENT, BECAUSE…
SFUSD solves two significant problems that most stablecoins face today; usability and growth.
Usability: SFUSD is in the process of partnering with a major debit card company. SFUSD holders can now purchase from merchants who accept crypto and those who take conventional MasterCard payments. In addition, stablecoins will become more widely accepted and adaptable to traditional transactional markets due to this development.
Growth: SFUSD will be the only stablecoin to reward those who stake their money daily with 1%. In addition to the stability of the stablecoin, this represents an exponential growth opportunity. Earnings can even be compounded weekly.
In addition to breaking conventional banking boundaries, SFUSD provides people with 24/7/365 access to their money. Sending money worldwide is as simple as connecting to the internet. Finally, there is unrestricted control over funds. An amount can be spent, sent, saved, or invested as the person desires.
Refrain from spending money to use money.
Wire transfers are no longer subject to exorbitant fees. Compared to previous years, when people spent a considerable amount of money on transfers, they now spend only a fraction of a cent on them. With instant cash flow, vendors and merchants can avoid the 2.9% fees on credit card payments and pass on the savings to their loyal customers.
It pays to hold & stake money.
The stablecoin SFUSD will be the first and only stablecoin in the world to offer stakeholders 30% rewards per month. By staking their SFUSD coins via the Stable Fund wallet, holders can earn up to 30% per month in returns.
Launch Information:
SFUSD is scheduled to launch on the 10th of December, 2022. SFUSD is also planning to achieve other significant milestones with its upcoming launches:
Binance: February 2023
Avalanche-C: April 2023
Ethereum: June 2023
How to get SFUSD?
It is possible to purchase SFUSD on the following websites: Crypto.com, Coinbase.com, and Kucoin.com. Furthermore, holders can convert their SFUSD into other stablecoins and cryptocurrencies, including USDT, BUSD, Matic, and ETH.
