According to PANews, Justin Bieber has invested over $2 million in Non-Fungible Tokens (NFTs) during 2022. As per data monitored by Arkham, the current value of these investments is just slightly over $100,000 as of the early hours of today.

In addition to his NFT investments, Bieber's wallet on Arkham currently holds nearly $500,000 worth of Ethereum (ETH) and APE. This indicates a significant interest and investment in the digital asset market by the pop star.

However, the drastic decrease in the value of his NFT investments highlights the volatile nature of the cryptocurrency market. Despite this, Bieber's continued investment in Ethereum and APE suggests a sustained interest in the potential of digital assets.

According to PANews, Memeland, an NFT project, has announced on platform X that 1,000,000 red envelopes containing RuneCoins will be available for eligible Stakeland users. Each red envelope will contain 420 RuneCoins. Users have the option to decide how many steaks they want to destroy, with the maximum being 80% of the total steaks at the snapshot time on April 24, 2024. The default destruction rate is set at 69%.

The percentage of steaks a user destroys compared to everyone else will determine their share from the 1,000,000 red envelopes. The number of steaks needed to earn a red envelope will be determined after the destruction period ends, based on each individual's decision. If a user's allocation is less than one red envelope, they will not receive any red envelopes and their steaks will be returned for use in the next event. The destruction period will end at 1 PM on April 26.

In previous news, Memeland announced that the first project on Stakeland would be RuneCoin.

According to Foresight News, court documents reveal that another individual involved with OneCoin, William Morro, has been arrested.

According to BlockBeats, the total market value of stablecoins has seen a significant increase over the past month. As per the data provided by DeFiLllama, the market value has grown by 6.45%, currently standing at $157.96 billion. This is a substantial increase from the $148.39 billion recorded a month ago on March 25th. This growth indicates a rising interest and trust in stablecoins, which are digital currencies pegged to a stable asset, such as gold or a fiat currency like the US dollar. The increase in market value suggests that more investors are turning to stablecoins as a safe haven amidst the volatile crypto market.

According to PANews, Apple's research team has introduced an advanced open language model, OpenELM. This model uses a hierarchical scaling strategy to effectively distribute parameters in each layer of the transformer model, thereby improving accuracy. For instance, with a parameter budget of about 1 billion, OpenELM's accuracy has increased by 2.36% compared to OLMo, while the required pre-training tokens have been reduced by half.

Unlike previous practices that only provided model weights, inference code, and pre-training on private datasets, OpenELM includes a complete framework for training and evaluating language models on publicly available datasets. This includes training logs, multiple checkpoints, and pre-training configurations. In addition, they have also released the code to convert the model into the MLX library, allowing for inference and fine-tuning on Apple devices.

Earlier in February, Apple CEO Tim Cook stated that Apple's generative AI feature would be launched 'later this year'.

The market data shows that the price of the HBAR token has fallen to $0.1182, a 24-hour drop of 29.73%.

Previously, a misunderstanding was caused by an announcement from the HBAR Foundation about the 'tokenization of BlackRock funds'. It was widely misunderstood that BlackRock was involved in the development of Hedera, which the company has now clarified is not the case.

According to Foresight News, a survey conducted by KPMG, a multinational professional services network, has revealed that the exposure of Canadian institutional investors to cryptocurrency is set to increase significantly by 2023. Nearly 40% of the institutional investors surveyed reported that they will have direct or indirect exposure to crypto assets in 2023, a rise from the 31% recorded in their 2021 study.

Furthermore, a third of institutional investors have allocated 10% or more of their investment portfolios to crypto assets. This proportion was only a fifth two years ago. The findings indicate a growing interest and confidence in digital assets among institutional investors in Canada, suggesting a potential shift in investment strategies towards more diverse and digital portfolios.

According to PANews, the European Parliament has passed new regulations, officially requiring cryptocurrency companies to conduct due diligence to combat money laundering. The Parliament voted on Wednesday to pass a series of laws that will partly strengthen 'due diligence measures and checks on customer identity,' including so-called crypto asset management companies. They will also have to report suspicious activities to the authorities. The new law will affect crypto asset service providers (CASPs), such as centralized crypto exchanges, and many other institutions, including gambling services.

Patrick Hansen, EU Strategy and Policy Director at Circle, stated in a post on X that the voting result was expected. 'The bill will now also officially be approved by the EU Council and will take effect three years later,' Hansen wrote on the X platform. Last month, Hansen refuted rumors that the new law would ban anonymous crypto wallets and self-payment methods. He stated that the new law would apply to CASPs already regulated under MiCA (Crypto Asset Market Regulation), which need to follow standard KYC/AML procedures, such as customer due diligence (CDD). This is not something new, as all EU cryptocurrency exchanges and custodial wallet providers have already complied with these obligations under the current AMLD5 regulations.

Hansen stated that overall, the final version is a 'great achievement' for the crypto industry. The previous version of the proposed AMLR suggested a stricter approach, which meant carrying out KYC on self-custody initiators/beneficiaries, but due to the industry's efforts, it was finally agreed to adopt a risk-based approach and various options.
