While Everyone Is Trying To Build A Super App Blockbank Has Done It

20 Oct 2022

While the U.S. dollar has been extremely robust in recent times, compared to a myriad of fiat currencies worldwide, a number of analysts and economists think the greenback will eventually falter in an inconceivable manner. The owner of aheadoftheherd.com, Richard Mills, published a comprehensive research post on Wednesday called “Walking Dead U.S. Dollar,” warning that “we are rushing headlong into a U.S. dollar crisis of epic proportions.” The investor thinks that within the next five years, the greenback could very well “lose its status as the world’s reserve currency.”

If you are acquainted with the financial world, then you probably know that the U.S. dollar has been on a tear and Richard Mills, the investor and owner of aheadoftheherd.com, doesn’t think the greenback’s bull run will last. During the first week of October, the U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) recorded a brief dip after reaching a 2022 high, above the 114.000 region on September 27.

On October 20, 2022, the DXY has been coasting along between the 112.000 and 113.000 region, after some range-bound action during the last 48 hours. Comparing the U.S. dollar’s value to a variety of fiat currencies like the yuan, yen, pound, euro, and the dollars of Canada, Hong Kong, and Australia highlights the significant losses these currencies have seen over the last six months.

The blog post written by Mills and published on aheadoftheherd.com explains how the dollar is doing so well, the last six months of rising interest rates, and how short and long-term U.S. Treasury note and bond markets have shown erratic behavior.

“Rising interest rates have put upward pressure on the dollar, as foreign investors pour capital into the country,” Mills’ blog post details on October 19. “The dollar has also done well because the U.S. economy is perceived to be stronger than Europe’s, which is suffering from an energy crisis. On Aug. 22 the euro fell to a two-decade low of 0.9903 against the dollar. The New York Times stated in July that the dollar is the strongest it’s been in a generation, citing safe haven demand, inflation, higher interest rates, and worries over growth as factors.”

Akin to most of the blog posts on aheadoftheherd.com, the article called “Walking Dead U.S. Dollar” is jam-packed with citations and data to back up the claims Mills makes in his editorial. After explaining how strong the greenback has been and detailing what it has been doing to foreign nations, Mills says he believes the U.S. dollar is “due for a reckoning.” “Only six months into the Fed tightening cycle, we’ve got developing countries defending their own currencies against the surging U.S. dollar, trying to support them by selling Treasuries and dumping the dollar,” Mills writes.

The author adds that a strong dollar is bad for U.S. exporters. “When American companies sell their products to other countries, the latter’s purchasing power is weakened by the strong dollar. The result is lower demand for U.S. exports,” Mills explains. The owner of aheadoftheherd.com adds:

Conversely, the dollar as the world’s reserve currency can only go so low because it will always be in high demand for countries to purchase commodities priced in U.S. dollars, and U.S. Treasuries. It should not be allowed to fall too much, because that would risk the dollar losing its ‘exorbitant privilege.’

Mills is not the only person who believes the dollar is doomed to fail or face a reckoning as a great number of market strategists, analysts, and economists have stressed the greenback is down to the last straw. For instance, Robert Kiyosaki, the author of the best-selling book Rich Dad Poor Dad, detailed this month that the U.S. dollar will crash by January 2023. Economist and gold bug Peter Schiff recently explained that the U.S. central bank faces two choices, either “a massive financial crisis” is in the cards or “the world will run away from the dollar.”

The investor and financial author Mills thinks that an economic crisis and the greenback losing its status in the global currency arena will happen. “I personally believe we are rushing headlong into a U.S. dollar crisis of epic proportions. In fact, within the next five years, the buck could lose its status as the world’s reserve currency,” Mills’ blog post on Wednesday notes. Mills further argues that Jerome Powell and the Federal Reserve will not be able to get inflation down to the 2% range without significantly raising the Federal Funds Rate (FFR).

“Arguably the Jay Powell Fed will not be able to bring inflation down to its 2% target without increasing the FFR significantly — probably into the double digits. How high can rates go, and how strong can the dollar get, before the rest of the world ‘cries uncle’?” Mills asks his readers. He adds:

Will Powell make the same mistake as Volcker, running the economy into the ground with rate hikes? It seems likely, given the importance the Fed has placed not only on taming inflation, but maintaining the dollar system. Mark Twain is reputed to have said, ‘History does not repeat itself but it rhymes.’

Today's Top Ethereum and Bitcoin Mining Devices Continue to Rake in Profits

As the crypto economy hovers just under $2 trillion in value, application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) mining devices are making decent profits. While ASIC miners can still mine ethereum, a 1.5 gigahash (GH/s) Ethash mining device can rake in $51.58 per ... read more.

Following two days of declines, dogecoin rebounded earlier in today’s session, moving away from a key level of support. The meme coin, which has been hovering close to a one-month low, surged, as bulls seemingly bought the dip. The token formerly known as ripple (xrp) was also higher.

Dogecoin (DOGE) was a notable gainer in today’s session, as the meme coin rebounded following recent losses.

So far this week, DOGE/USD has been trading around a floor of $0.0580, however prices rallied beyond that point today.

The world’s tenth largest cryptocurrency rose to a high of $0.06068 earlier today, as bulls seemingly have their sights set on a resistance point.

Looking at the chart, this ceiling is the $0.0620 mark, which was last hit ten days ago, on October 10.

Currently, the 14-day relative strength index (RSI), has reached a resistance level of its own, and is currently tracking at this point of 47.50

Should dogecoin bulls intend to take prices higher, we would first need to see a breakout of this current hurdle.

XRP, formerly ripple, was another big mover on Thursday, as price bounced from its own support point.

Following a low of $0.4501 on Wednesday, XRP/USD raced to an intraday peak of $0.4638 earlier today.

Today’s move sees XRP snap a two-day losing streak, bouncing from a support of $0.4500 in the process.

Recent declines have also led to the 10-day (red) moving average (MA) dropping below its 25-day (blue) counterpart.

Although prices have since rebounded today, this shift in moving averages could be a signal for greater drops in price to come.

Momentum in XRP has shifted in the last two weeks, as it was hovering close to a five-month high previously.

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

The Central Bank of Brazil has confirmed that the institution will run a pilot test regarding the implementation of its proposed central bank digital currency (CBDC), the digital real. Roberto Campos Neto, president of the bank, also stated that this ... read more.

PRESS RELEASE. “Creating a neobanking super-app for crypto and digital assets has been blockbank’s ultimate vision since its inception. Throughout this past year, we have listened to our growing user base, acquired global licenses, and built one of the most technologically advanced pieces of software in this space,” said Anastasija Plotnikova, the CEO of blockbank.

Blockbank is available on the Apple and Google Play stores for download and provides the end user with a portal into all things banking, digital finance, and cryptocurrency. Having multiple back-ends with one front-end establishes a multi-faceted user-centric experience allowing each user to pick and choose how they want to participate not only in the application but with their own personal finances.

The app aims to give its users an unparalleled set of options. First, where they are fully KYC’d, and the assets are custodied within the application, users can stake, earn, and trade. Second, where users can be fully decentralized, they can participate directly in the DeFi space while self custodying their own assets. Third, they get access to a bank account number enabling them to send or receive traditional money. By the end of this year, a fourth component will be enabled – a working global crypto credit card allowing users to spend or withdraw cash from any ATM globally.

Blockbank was recently announced as a winner of a European Fintech Hackcelerator by Accelpoint and was invited by the Monetary Authority of Singapore to participate in the Singapore Fintech Festival, taking place on November 2-4. It’s important to note that in the European Fintech Hackcelerator, blockbank was the only Female-led company.

“The digital landscape is fragmented and complex, confronting investors and users with risk, security, and navigational challenges. Our vision was to defragment finance, and create a simple and easy-to-use platform where users can facilitate all their financial needs, no matter the vertical, in one super application. We can now proudly say we have accomplished our goal.” said Kelghe Dcruz, Co-Founder of blockbank.

Managing your finances, whether it be traditional or digital, shouldn’t be difficult, risky, or expensive. While traditional finance considers digital asset holders and users “high risk” and makes little to no effort to serve them compliantly and fairly, blockbank’s mission is to create an environment from the ground up to accommodate retail and institutional users with their desired needs.

“With our latest release, we are hitting a major technological milestone. We have worked hard to bring speed improvements to the features that blockbank users use the most. And together with an update, we are adding new security levels that are powered by Fireblocks. I’m sure our users will love it just as much as we loved developing it.” — Dmitrij Radin, Chief Technology Officer at blockbank.

The Avalanche network is now available.

Users can easily access hundreds of AVAX tokens on the AVAX chain. This will allow users to conveniently participate in DeFi or Cefi services within the app, eliminating the need to use different applications for each network.

Faster transactions with lower fees

Since the launch of blockbank, the team has continued to work on speed, stability, and improvements so users won’t need to compromise speed and stability for the sake of low fees.

The improvements in the software enabled the increase in the speed of transactions drastically. Users can now enjoy faster deposits, withdrawals, and transactions. This next version introduces improved calculations of transit fees & swaps for all current and future protocols.

Neo Banking transactions will now happen faster and more efficiently, with the ability to deposit funds to users’ blockbank wallet using their card. In the near future users will have the ability to top up their cards directly with EUR, GBP, USD, and CAD.

Focus on security and convenience

Blockbank entered into a partnership with Fireblocks, a leading blockchain custody service provider for moving, storing, and securing digital assets. Fireblocks is a digital asset custody, transfer, and settlement platform.

Users can now access decentralized finance services easier and faster. When accessing the centralized section of the application, the KYC (Know Your Customer) process will take less than three minutes.

Unstoppable Domains integration

Unstoppable Domains are the leaders in the decentralized domain space. blockbank’s users are able to purchase their decentralized domains without leaving the application.

The purchased domain will replace a long, complicated wallet address with a single, easy-to-read domain of the buyer’s choice.

A new definition of digital assets accessibility

The blockbank team is happy to announce that together with the rollout of V3, the application will now be able to onboard North American clients.

“Being involved from the beginning and as the first investor in the project, I am beyond excited to see blockbank’s progress. I see such potential here to solve real-world problems – roadblocks that the other founders at blockbank and I have encountered with banks and traditional finance. It has been a long, arduous road, but we have now built the foundation to help our users mitigate these problems.” – Darren Franceschini, Co-Founder of blockbank.

The community remains the driving force behind our resilience, inspiring innovation and shaping future application updates. With the relentless support of the community, blockbank is on its way to becoming a true CeFi, DeFi & neobanking powerhouse, eliminating the complexity of digital asset management and unlocking a world of opportunity for its users.

Follow blockbank on Twitter and join an official Telegram channel to stay au courant about the new features, partnerships, and more.
