  • For three weeks, 85,000 Yotta customers with a combined $112 million in savings have been locked out of their accounts, CEO and co-founder Adam Moelis told CNBC.
  • The disruption, caused by a dispute between fintech middleman Synapse and Tennessee-based Evolve Bank & Trust, has upended lives, Moelis said.
  • “We never imagined a scenario like this could play out and that no regulator would step in and help,” he said.

When Adam Moelis co-founded a fintech startup named Yotta in 2019, he wanted to give Americans a new way to save money to help them cushion the ups and downs of life.
Instead, his company has inadvertently been a source of deep pain for thousands of customers who relied on Yotta accounts to receive paychecks, pay bills and save for emergencies.

The crisis began May 11, when a dispute between two of Yotta’s banking partners — fintech middleman Synapse and Tennessee-based Evolve Bank & Trust — led to the lockup of accounts at Yotta and at least two dozen other startups. Synapse declared bankruptcy earlier this year after several key clients abandoned the firm amid disagreements over the tracking of customer funds.
For the past three weeks, 85,000 Yotta customers with a combined $112 million in savings have been locked out of their accounts, Moelis told CNBC. The disruption had upended lives, forced users to borrow money for food and thrown upcoming events like surgeries or weddings into doubt, he said.
“The stories are heartbreaking,” Moelis said. “We never imagined something like this could happen. We worked with banks that are members of the FDIC. We never imagined a scenario like this could play out and that no regulator would step in and help.”

Notcoin could be the 2024 coin play


The post Notcoin Makes History With Exponential Rally, ETH Whales Bet on Algotech (ALGT) as Next Moonshot appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News

The cryptocurrency market is buzzing as Notcoin makes history with an exponential rally, capturing the attention of investors and analysts. Ethereum whales are now eyeing Algotech (ALGT) as the next big opportunity, attracted by its innovative solutions and potential for high returns.


Algotech’s unique technology and strategic partnerships have positioned it as a promising player in the market.


In this article, we will explore Notcoin’s recent surge, the rise of Algotech, and what these developments mean for the future of cryptocurrency.


Notcoin makes history with Exponential rally: Future Potential and Market Impact​


Notcoin, a viral Telegram game token, has seen a notable price increase in the past 24 hours. Trading at $0.02586, it surged over 23%, according to CoinMarketCap. Notcoin‘s market cap now stands at approximately $2.66 billion, securing its #45 rank among cryptocurrencies.

Despite a 51.27% decrease in 24-hour trading volume, totalling around $2.11 billion, Notcoin’s trading volume remains 7th, surpassing Solana and Binance. The price has rallied from $0.005 to above $0.026, indicating strong bullish momentum and investor confidence.


Notcoin’s rapid popularity and Market impact​


Notcoin surged over 190% in the past week, reaching an all-time high of $0.02644 on June 2. Integrated as a Telegram Mini App, Notcoin rapidly gained popularity, amassing over 30 million users on Telegram within two months. Since its launch, Notcoin’s price has increased by over 144%, making it the most trending altcoin.


Social media buzz has been a key driver behind Notcoin’s rally. Within two weeks of its launch, Notcoin became the second-most mentioned cryptocurrency on various platforms, highlighting the crypto community’s growing interest and adoption.


Ethereum surges amid shrinking supply and ETF speculation​


Ethereum recorded a blistering 4% surge over the weekend, reaching a daily peak of $3,839 on June 3, putting bears at increased liquidation risk amid a shrinking ETH supply.


Following a 30% price upswing driven by Ethereum ETF approvals, many ETH holders entered a profit-taking frenzy in late May, reducing monthly gains to 24%. However, as the sell-the-news wave subsides, ETH markets have begun to attract buying momentum in June.


Within the first three days of June, ETH price increased by 3.7%, potentially setting the pace for the rest of the month. While the official launch of the Ethereum ETFs remains uncertain, Ethereum continues to seek the next demand surge. On-chain data indicates a shrinking supply of ETH across exchanges, putting bulls back in control.


Notcoin’s Unprecedented Price Surge, A Pull Back, And The Prospect For More​

Notcoin, the Telegram-linked play-to-earn coin that launched in may have taken the crypto world by storm. Over the weekend, the coin rallied to its current ATH of $0.02836, which amounts to a 360.98% increase in the past 10 days. With a 254.40% increase in the last 7 days, Notcoin is currently outperforming the global crypto market which is down by -1.10%

The massive gain of Notcoin has made it hard to ignore. The coin has had a massive run over the weekend, a move that ranks among the best ever by any altcoin. Despite the run, the price of Notcoin has dropped 27% from its all-time-high, but is still within the bullish range, leaving a clear indication that more price surges might be underway.

I’m just stick to bitcoin and ethereum


As I said earlier in this thread, over the past three years, most of the alt coins have bled against bitcoin. If I’m not mistaken, the only token that’s in the top 100 to reach an all-time high since 2020 is BNB. No other token that was around in 2020 bull run that’s in the top 100 has hit a new all-time high. Please correct me if I’m wrong. Most alt coins in the top 200 are down anywhere between 60 and 90%.

I didn't donate to Trump but I've been getting calls asking if I changed my number on my email and needed to confirm who I am to keep my account open . The only problem with that is they tried to connect through my Coinbase account without me realizing it was the Coinbase verification process. I almost got took .

The scammers assume from their antics on TV that MAGA adherents are easy marks for sophisticated crypto transactions. In their haste to support him they'll make take shortcuts, or simple mistakes and leave themselves/their wallets vulnerable to exploit.

U.S. Marshals Service chooses Coinbase to safeguard, trade its large cap digital assets portfolio​

TL; DR: After a comprehensive process, the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS), a division of the U.S. Department of Justice, selected Coinbase Prime as its partner to safeguard and trade its “Class 1” (large cap) digital assets.

Today, the U.S. Marshals Service (USMS), an agency within the U.S. Department of Justice that is responsible for asset forfeiture, announced that it selected Coinbase Prime to provide custody and advanced trading services for the agency’s “Class 1” (large cap) digital assets, which it manages centrally in support of federal law enforcement. The USMS conducted a competitive due diligence process that evaluated a range of solutions, ultimately choosing Coinbase due to our strong track record and ability to securely provide institutional-grade crypto services at scale.
Coinbase has a longstanding history of supporting law enforcement agencies, dating back to the founding of our law enforcement program in 2014. Today, Coinbase works with every major U.S. federal, state, and local law enforcement agency, as well as international agencies on every continent. Growing the cryptoeconomy means promoting safe and efficient markets, and these partnerships are critical to our mission.
Coinbase Prime is a commercially and publicly available service. Since launching nearly three years ago, Prime has become the platform-of-choice for institutions and large holders of digital assets, including being the primary partner for a vast majority of the spot crypto ETFs. As of March 31, 2024, Coinbase safeguarded $330 billion of assets. Coinbase recorded $256bn in institutional trading volume in Q1 2024.
Here’s why institutions trust Coinbase to safeguard assets.

Let me guess. He used social media to post his exotic car collection, homes, vacation pics, clothes, etc. To lure in unsuspecting investors with the promise of living like him? People need to wise up to these type scams. I live by a simple rule. Never trust anyone on social media who promote their lifestyle more than their business. Can't tell you how many pages I have been on with business links to buy their "product" but never much about said product. Just buy this and live like me..lol.
