👀Consensys's L2 Exits Alpha Launch Phase
Together with
GM Defiers!
Consensys announced the mainnet rollout of its highly-anticipated Layer 2, Linea, is now complete. Linea's ERC-20 token bridge is now live, allowing users to begin exploring the network's DeFi ecosystem.
PayPal is expanding its presence in the crypto sector, announcing the launch of a fiat on-ramp in partnership with Ledger. The news comes roughly one week after PayPal revealed the surprise launch of its Ethereum-based PYUSD stablecoin.
Bitcoin and Ether are holding relatively strong while the broader digital markets retrace, with only five of the top 100 cryptocurrencies gaining more than 1% in the past 24 hours, and 43 tokens slumping more than 5%.
And Gitcoin has garnered controversy after teaming up with the global oil and gas behemoth, Shell, on a year-long partnership to explore open-source climate solutions.
