- Journalist Protection Bill To Be Brought In Current Assembly Session: Chhattisgarh CM
Updated: 17 Mar 2023 9:44 Am
A bill related to the protection of journalists will be tabled in the ongoing budget session of the Chhattisgarh Assembly, Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel said on Thursday. He made the announcement while replying to a debate on the demand for grants for his departments under the annual budget of the financial year 2022-23. The CM also hit out at the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government at the Centre over raids by the Enforcement Directorate (ED) and the Income Tax department at the premises of government officials and Congress leaders and alleged the action was aimed at defaming his administration.
Baghel holds General Administration, Finance, Energy, Mineral Resources, Public Relations, Electronics and Information Technology, and Aviation portfolios. “The journalist's protection law (bill) will be brought in the ongoing session,” he said. The CM also listed measures taken by his government in the interest of media persons. Targeting the Centre over ED and IT raids, Baghel said, “ those officials who have committed wrong are in jail. Those who have done anything wrong should be in jail. Investigations (by central probe agencies) should be followed by reports. One by one raid are being conducted but no report is being presented."
“Investigations will continue till the Lok Sabha elections next year because you (Centre) are not interested in probe...rather you are interested in defaming,” alleged the Congress leader. Baghel said whenever he and his party leaders from Chhattisgarh went to other states for poll campaigning, raids took place in Chhattisgarh. Raids were conducted when the Congress plenary session was organized in Raipur in February. The CM further said he had written to the Union Home Minister and the ED seeking a probe into the alleged chit fund scams that took place during the previous Raman Singh-led BJP government in the state.
Baghel accused the Centre of trying to "capture" all institutions in the country. After discussion, the demand proposal for the departments held by the CM was passed in the Assembly. The ED has been probing the coal levy money laundering case in Chhattisgarh and so far arrested nine persons, including an Indian Administration Service (IAS) officer and a state service bureaucrat.

- The Polygon (MATIC) price is showing long-term bullish signs, but the current increase could be coming to an end.
The MATIC token is the native token of the Polygon network, a scaling solution for the Ethereum blockchain. The MATIC price has increased since the beginning of the year when it bounced at the $0.77 horizontal support area.
Currently, MATIC price is attempting to break out from the null.35 resistance area. This is a crucial area since it acted as support for most of 2022. Therefore, if the price breaks out above this area, it can increase to the next resistance at null.73.
The weekly RSI has moved above 50 (green icon), which is a strong bullish sign. Therefore, it makes the possibility of a breakout likely.

Bakkt closes curtains on consumer app, announces plan to focus on B2B strategy
BUSINESS10 HOURS AGO
Wahid Pessarlay 
Bakkt Holdings has announced its intention to focus its offering on business-to-business (B2B) technology solutions amid plans to “sunset” its consumer app.
The company disclosed the move in a blog post, saying that the new business model will provide its customers with virtual asset services via Software as a Service (SaaS) and API solutions. The statement identified March 16 as the last day of operation for the currency consumer-centric mobile app as it urged users to brace for the new changes.
“As we continue to gain traction with our B2B2C strategy, we are laser focused on providing our partners and clients with seamless solutions that best serve their needs. The discontinuation of the app ensures we are supporting the relationship our partners and clients have with their customers,” Bakkt CEO Gavin Michael noted.
“With this move, we are focusing our investment on our core solutions that have product-market fit and are positioned to scale quickly,” Michael added.
Bakkt launched operations in 2021, allowing customers to buy and sell digital currencies like BTC, with Ethereum being supported on the mobile app months after launch. The company has been keen on expanding operations, as it added the functionality of trading gift cards on the platform.
Bakkt’s statement revealed that current platform users will be allowed access to their digital assets through a new web experience. The company stated that customers’ holdings could be accessed through multiple devices for digital asset tax purposes.
Bakkt’s move towards business-to-business services has been in the works since November 2022, when it signed a deal with Apex Crypto, giving it access to 30 signed fintech partners.
“The pending Apex Crypto acquisition further affirms Bakkt’s B2B2C approach and go-forward strategy of bringing crypto products to a broad universe of client verticals,” the report read.
Pivot or die!
Digital asset firms are switching strategies in the face of unfavorable market conditions plaguing the ecosystem. Several digital asset exchanges are laying off a chunk of their staff as they navigate the uncertainties of the market, with Coinbase (NASDAQ: COIN), Huobi, and Crypto.com shedding up to 20% of their workforce.
Huobi recently announced it was shutting down its Cloud Wallet, citing “strategic and product adjustments” beginning immediately. The embattled exchange has undergone a radical rebranding and a corporate restructuring following its exit from Mainland China.
Experts predict an increase in virtual currency firms making radical changes to their core offerings in the coming months as they look to weather the storm from falling asset prices.

Disgraced FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried is expected to enter a plea ofd "not guilty" next week as he faces eight federal charges in the Southern District of New York related to the downfall of his crypto exchange, according to a report from the Wall Street Journal, citing a person familiar with the situation.
Bankman-Fried is expected to enter his not guilty plea in person in Manhattan on January 3.
FTX collapsed in November following a selloff of its FTT token and a liquidity crunch on the exchange, which had used celebrities like Tom Brady and Larry David to bolster its image as its valuation ballooned to $32 billion by early 2022.

The exchange had reportedly allowed trading firm Alameda Research, also founded by Bankman-Fried and purportedly a separate company, to tap into ample liquidity with “secret exemptions” from liquidation rules. Alameda allegedly used billions of dollars’ worth of FTX customer funds to plug holes in its own balance sheet following the downfall of Terra this past summer.
In various interviews following FTX’s collapse, Bankman-Fried blamed the liquidity crisis on mistakes and mismanagement, but denied knowingly breaking the law or misleading investors.
- Conflux Network Expands into Hong Kong

Toronto, Canada, 28th December, 2022, Chainwire
Dr. Ming Wu, co-founder of Conflux Network, was invited to Hong Kong to speak with various government and private organizations about the digital economy, innovation and technology, and has reached an initial strategic cooperation intention.
Conflux is already in the process of registering related entities for the entry into Hong Kong, solidifying its role as foundational infrastructure for Web3.
This follows October’s announcement of the “Policy Declaration on the Development of Hong Kong Virtual Assets” which has paved the way for a more hospitable blockchain environment in Hong Kong.
Dr. Ming Wu, Co-Founder of Conflux Network, was invited by the Hong Kong Government to discuss the rise of tech innovation through Web3 and how the Conflux Network could play a foundational role in these developments. During the visit, Dr. Ming Wu had an in-depth discussion with the heads and reception staff of various institutions under the new "Policy Declaration on the Development of Hong Kong Virtual Assets" officially released in October.
Over the past several years, stringent COVID-19 travel control measures and regulatory uncertainty saw many Hong Kong blockchain and crypto companies shift their businesses to more hospitable areas. This policy shows a significant refocus on digital assets and coincides with the launch of the first two exchange-traded funds for cryptocurrency in Hong Kong.
Dr. Ming Wu introduced the Conflux Tree-Graph public chain, explaining it is the only compliant, public and permissionless chain in China and has achieved 3000+ TPS, 5000+ nodes and 0.5s block generation. In terms of throughput, confirmation time, and cost of use, it has 2-3 orders of magnitude advantages over the international first-generation public chain "Bitcoin" and the second-generation public chain "Ethereum". The system performance ranks first in the world.
Dr. Mig Wu said 'Hong Kong's open environment for crypto provides more opportunities for practitioners in Web3 and Metaverse, especially for those from China. People here have more freedom to make the technique and business innovations in a compliant manner. This will also accelerate the integration of Web3 into the traditional internet business and economies to maximally extract its value. By expanding to Hong Kong, Conflux will be able to take a whole different strategy and have the potential to become the foundation to fulfill the Web3 vision of Hong Kong.'
The expansion follows Conflux Network being named a potential unicorn, a private startup company valued at over null billion, in the Emerging Giants in Asia Pacific joint report from HSBC and KPMG. One of only five blockchain-related companies to make the prestigious list.
About Conflux
Conflux is a permissionless Layer 1 blockchain connecting decentralized economies across borders and protocols. Recently migrated to hybrid PoW/PoS consensus, Conflux provides a fast, secure, and scalable blockchain environment with zero congestion, low fees, and improved network security.
As the only regulatory-compliant public blockchain in China, Conflux provides a unique advantage for projects building and expanding into Asia. In the region, Conflux has collaborated with global brands and government entities on blockchain and metaverse initiatives, including the city of Shanghai, McDonald's China, and Oreo.

- Ethereum Price Prediction: How 2023 Could Be a Big Year For ETH
Ethereum has had a difficult year, with its value dropping 70.4% in one year and 75.5% from its all-time high.
However, according to a popular crypto analyst, Guy of Coin Bureau, next year could be an exceptional year for the largest smart contracts token.
Guy believes that the upcoming Ethereum Shanghai upgrade scheduled for Q1 2023 could lead to a bullish trend reversal for Ether. The analyst believes that the unlocking of billions of dollars worth of tokens from smart contracts will attract investors to stake their own tokens for a potentially stress-free investment experience.
"When they see that that ETH can in fact be unstaked and easily sold, then it might incentivize them to actually stake themselves. So, I really think it could go either way. Now, I wouldn't at all be surprised if it was slightly bearish in the short term if we do see some selling," said Guy in his Q&A video.
"I think the future for ETH is so, so bright, and I think Shanghai, assuming it goes off without a hitch as the Merge did, then I think 2023 could be a really big year for Ethereum and for ETH," Guy continued.
According to a crypto expert, it is unlikely that Ethereum will reach five digits in 2023. Instead, Guy predicts a sideways trend for the cryptocurrency during the year.
Similarly, Rekt Capital, a pseudonymous crypto trader and analyst, told their 330k followers on Twitter that the Ethereum price must hold support at null,062 to avert a possible drop to $843.
