2023-09-26 20:27:48 NASA will confirm the moon landing using blockchain

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration plans to use blockchain to prove the moon landing in the coming years.

NASA plans to launch an unmanned spacecraft to the moon. The unmanned station will have "data cubes" whose information can be verified using blockchain once it returns to Earth. And, if all goes according to plan, the same technology will have to authenticate the moon landing of the crew of the Artemis 3 manned mission, which will take place in 2025.

NASA has enlisted the support of startup Lonestar and Isle of Man to use blockchain. Digital stamps will be used to confirm the landing, the authenticity of which can be verified using blockchain to ensure their completeness and integrity. Blockchain was chosen due to the inability to change the data recorded on the blockchain.

2023-09-23 20:06:46 Dogecoin dynamics proved to be more stable compared to bitcoin

The volatility of the most popular memcoin has recently decreased significantly. At the moment, Dogecoin looks more stable in this respect compared to bitcoin. According to TradingView, the annual realized volatility of DOGE is 30%, while in the case of BTC this indicator is 35%.

It is noteworthy that the market dynamics of the most capitalized memcoin has always been unpredictable, which often scared away many investors with low risk tolerance. CoinDesk representatives emphasized that the reduced volatility of DOGE should not be seen as a sign that memcoin is becoming a "mature" asset. Rather, the current situation is related to the decreased investment demand for altcoins.
