READWRITE.COMMicroStrategy acquries 2,530 BTC for $243 millionMicroStrategy, a top corporate Bitcoin (BTC) holder, just acquired 2,530 BTC for $243 million.A recent 8-K form filed by MicroStrategy with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) reveals that the company paid an average price of $95,972 per Bitcoin with its latest investment. Considering that at the time of writing Bitcoin changes hands at $91,777, this investment is currently losing nearly 4.4%.Still, the document also shows that MicroStrategy currently owns about 450,000 BTC, acquired at an average price of $62,691 per Bitcoin, including fees and expenses. The total purchase price of those assets is approximately $28.2 billion, over 45.5% lower than the current value of Bitcoin, which is $41.04 billion.What is MircoStrategy?MicroStrategy is a publicly traded business intelligence company founded in 1989 that pivoted to acquire as much Bitcoin as possible in 2020. The company now holds well over 1% of all Bitcoin that will ever exist and is now well underway to get its hands on 2%.Through this strategy, MicroStrategy secured its place as the top corporate Bitcoin holder. When investing in Bitcoin was near to impossible for highly-regulated institutional investors the company was also one of the best ways for those players to gain leveraged exposure to Bitcoin.Late November reports highlighted how major Wall Street companieswere accumulating MicroStrategy sharesas a way to gain leveraged exposure to Bitcoin. Benchmark analyst Mark Palmer wrote in a note to investors at the time:MSTRs ability to generate compounding yield on its bitcoin holdings, enabled by leverage accrued through the repeated tapping of the U.S. capital markets, differentiates its stock from alternative means of gaining exposure to bitcoin such as spot bitcoin ETFs.Back in late November when Bitcoin was approaching $100,000 for the first time MicroStrategy shares fell significantly. Major investment firm Citron Research explained at the time that the company decided to short MicroStrategy while going long on Bitcoin:With Bitcoin investing easier than ever [], [MicroStrategy]s volume has completely detached from BTC fundamentals. While Citron remains bullish on Bitcoin, weve hedged with a short [MicroStrategy] position.The post MicroStrategy acquries 2,530 BTC for $243 million appeared first on ReadWrite.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni

READWRITE.COMSEC Chairman Gary Gensler: crypto unlikely to become currencyU.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) Chairman Gary Gensler said that it is unlikely that Bitcoin (BTC) or another cryptocurrency will become a widely used means of payment.Gensler made the remarks at a recent event held at the Law Department of the New York University, industry media Coindesk reported. Gensler also claimed that there is no need for further regulatory clarity beyond the Howey test approved by the Supreme Court back in 1940.Gensler doubts cryptocurrenciesThe SEC Chairman was asked by an attendee what a cryptocurrencys value is, especially considering that it was created to be independent of all governments. Gensler explained that the public would decide it with its capital. Still, he suggested that he does not expect cryptocurrency to ever see significant adoption:But I did teach this stuff up at MIT and so forth, so Im just going say this these debates literally go back to Plato and Aristotle. [] This is 3,000 years of history. Hundreds of great nations, thousands of nation-states we tend to have one currency per geographic economic state. We tend even not to have bimetallism.The SEC official also cited Greshams law, a monetary principle asserting that bad money drives out the good, also highlighting that nations usually want just a single currency. He explained further:You want one currency unit because its a store of value, a medium of exchange, a unit of account. It all has tremendous economics of networks. [] So its unlikely this stuff is going to be a currency. Its going to have to show its value through disclosure, through use. [] The same way you pick amongst the thousands of securities that are listed on the stock exchange.Gensler also defended the SECs aggressive regulation through an enforcement approach to cryptocurrencies. He asked the audience:Without a cop on the beat, will all our laws be enforced?According to him, due to human nature in finance, people tend to play near the line, and regulators sometimes need to take enforcement actions to bring people back to the right side of the line. He further highlighted that the crypto industry attracted a high number of fraudsters and scammers and claimed:With all respect, the leading lights of this field in [2024] are either in jail or awaiting extradition right now.The post SEC Chairman Gary Gensler: crypto unlikely to become currency appeared first on ReadWrite.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni

READWRITE.COMDogecoin Price Prediction Experts Predict DOGE Could Repeat Its 2021 Price RallyDogecoin (DOGE), a longtime leader in the meme coin space, has faced fluctuating market conditions over the past week, despite previous attempts to rally.While minor fluctuations and corrections have occurred, some analysts predict a potential price surge, citing similarities to Dogecoins 2021 bull run.This article explores Dogecoins current state by examining its technical analysis, price predictions, and potential future performance in both the short and long term.Dogecoin (DOGE) price analysisAs of now, Dogecoin boasts a market capitalization of approximately $15.78 billion. Despite experiencing a 1.5% decline over the past day, trading at $0.1079 at press time, the overall market sentiment remains cautiously optimistic.Bitcoins recent downturn contributes to Dogecoins price movement, reflecting the inherent correlation between these assets. Interestingly, Dogecoins trading volume surged by 12.11% in the last 24 hours, indicating heightened trading activity.This increase suggests that more traders actively participate in the Dogecoin market, potentially signaling a shift in sentiment. A closer examination of Dogecoins price chart reveals a long-standing descending trend since March, paralleling trends observed in many other cryptocurrencies.However, a recent uptick in price indicates some bullish momentum, albeit tempered by Bitcoins current challenges. The chart presents an upward-sloping parallel channel, characterized by consistent support and resistance levels.Although upward-sloping channels typically break to the downside, this situation presents a trading opportunity. The key lies in monitoring the trend line that has defined Dogecoins movement since March. A breakdown below this line may offer a profitable short position.Currently, a trading pocket exists between the trend line, a horizontal support level, and the volume-weighted ATR on the four-hour chart. This pocket presents a potential gain of around 3%, making it an attractive target for traders looking to capitalize on short-term fluctuations.If youre looking for investment opportunities that could offer big returns and increase in value during the next bull run, check out our guide here for thebest crypto presales of 2024.Dogecoin (DOGE) price predictionDespite recent bearish momentum, daily momentum indicators suggest that Dogecoin could dip to around 3.25%. However, a recovery in the stochastic indicator may signal a bullish shift, supporting this prediction.From a broader perspective, the massive bull flag chart pattern indicates a potential rally to approximately $0.14, similar to previous trades that yielded a 20% profit. This pattern suggests that a disciplined take-profit strategy can prove effective.For future trades, reclaiming the breakout zone could offer significant gains, with targets set around a 50% move. Implementing a take-profit strategy and adjusting stop-loss orders to entry points can help secure profits and manage risk.While Dogecoin may approach the $0.17 threshold, expect stronger selling pressure. A successful breach of this barrier could lead to a longer rally, though a pullback or consolidation may occur if resistance is encountered.Memebet Token (MEMEBET): GameFi token with 100x potentialMemebet Token (MEMEBET) is gaining attention as the first meme coin casino in the world.

READWRITE.COMCould PeiPei Rebound From Downturn, or Should Investors Turn to This Layer 2 Frog Meme Coin ICO?Chinese meme coin PEIPEI recently declined after a month of rapid growth. However, some experts anticipate a resurgence as the market moves toward a bullish trend.Analysts point to the current dip in PEIPEIs price as a potential buying opportunity for those who missed the previous rally.This article explores the price prediction for PEIPEI (ETH) and evaluates its potential to deliver 100x returns in the coming months.PeiPei price predictionPeiPei (PEIPEI) has dropped 10%, but the situation remains manageable despite the decline. The market nears a critical point, hovering around the $40 million market cap range, sparking concerns about whether it will return to a risky level.Over the past week, the coin has lost 17%, though it remains up for the month. After surging from $40-50 million to a peak of $90 million, the gains have disappeared, and momentum has slowed. The current chart shows a potential head-and-shoulders pattern, but overall, market activity appears flat.If the coin drops below $35-40 million, it faces a make-or-break moment. A key factor in its potential recovery is Bitcoins strong performance, with Bitcoin rising to $60,000. Bitcoins continued bullish momentum could positively influence PeiPeis future.Bitcoins price movements have historically impacted altcoins and meme tokens like PeiPei, and October is seeing heightened market activity driven by Bitcoin.Additionally, the Chinese markets, particularly the Shanghai Composite Index, are performing well, which could have some influence on PeiPei. However, it remains uncertain whether this trend will significantly impact PeiPeis trajectory.PeiPei is at a pivotal moment, with a new support level forming that could determine its direction. If it breaks below this line and drops past the $30-35 million market cap range, a severe crash could follow. The situation looks risky, and the outcome may not be favorable if the market falters.In addition, PeiPei AI, a new meme generator for the PEIPEI community, now allows users to create unlimited memes within Telegram, adding a creative touch to the project. These memes have become a unique and beloved feature of PeiPei among its supporters.If youre looking for investment opportunities that could offer big returns and increase in value during the next bull run, check out our guide here for thebest crypto presales of 2024.Best frog meme coin alternative: Pepe Unchained (PEPU)Many PeiPei investors came from other meme coins like the popular green Pepe, hoping to see similar gains by moving their investments to PeiPei.

Pepe Unchaineds network will also feature a custom DEX, a block explorer, and a quick bridge back to Ethereum. The team is also focused on expanding the ecosystem by launching a developer grants program.And with that, Pepe Unchained reaches $18.5M raised.The community is STRONG. The tech is STRONG.

READWRITE.COMSolanas Potential Breakout May Trigger a Major Rally as This New GambleFi Casino on Telegram Raises $433K in PresaleIn the world of crypto, few names carry as much weight as Solana (SOL). Currently ranked as the fifth most valuable cryptocurrency on CoinMarketCap (CMC), Solana is trading at $141.28.Over the past day, it has shown a slight uptick, rising by 0.91%, despite having experienced a minor pullback recently. Solanas resilience stands out as it continues to outperform many other altcoins, solidifying its strong position in the market.Even with these fluctuations, it remains widely considered undervalued, with promising bullish momentum anticipated soon.Solana (SOL) Price AnalysisOver the past week, Solana has demonstrated an impressive uptrend from the third to the seventh day. This stability, especially during broader market fluctuations, highlights the assets robust fundamentals and enduring popularity.Notably, Solanas recent peak reached around $151, showcasing its ability to capture investor interest even in challenging market conditions. With bullish sentiment still prevalent, many believe Solana is undervalued, suggesting a strong potential for future price increases.In terms of trading volume, Solana is up by 14.6%, surging close to $1.9 billion, and ranks seventh among all cryptocurrencies, indicating a healthy level of trading activity that aligns well with its market ranking.While the current figures may not scream immediate bullish momentum, the overall sentiment remains positive, creating an optimistic outlook for investors.Looking into the technical analysis, starting from the three-day chart offers a broader perspective than the daily chart while remaining responsive to shorter-term movements. It reveals the formation of an ascending triangle, characterized by higher lows converging towards a horizontal resistance level.This pattern typically signals a potential breakout to the upside, indicating that bullish momentum could be on the horizon. The point of breakout appears to be around the current price levels, suggesting a possible long position for traders.The next target for a potential long trade is projected to yield nearly a 10% return. However, it is essential to remain cautious, as Solana may face some resistance at this level.Historical data suggests that price points near this resistance have previously resulted in pullbacks, making it likely for Solana to retest this level before initiating a more decisive upward move.Moreover, Solana is still within a bull flag formation, another bullish pattern suggesting a continuation of the upward trend. The measured move from this pattern indicates a potential price increase of approximately 57%, which could propel Solana toward its all-time high of $277.This potential rally would signify significant growth and present a compelling opportunity for investors looking to capitalize on the next phase of Solanas trajectory.If youre looking for investment opportunities that could offer big returns and increase in value during the next bull run, check out our guide here for thebest crypto presales of 2024.Memebet Token: Low-Cap GambleFi Token with Massive PotentialWhile waiting for Solanas potential breakout, there is another emerging project that could pique the interest of investors looking for passive income opportunities: Memebet Token.Positioned as a new crypto betting platform similar to Stake.com, Memebet Token allows users to engage in betting with meme coins.

Next, they strive to convince the target to download and install the malware, under the pretense of a video call app.If they are duped, the malicious code will quietly get to work in the background, quickly penetrating crypto wallets to steal the assets.There have been many warnings posted online about this form of fraud and social engineering, including an article posted to Medium.The author, known as Hainer, advised the malicious campaigns aim to infect, steal information and cryptocurrencies from people, particularly developer accounts in the cryptocurrency, blockchain, cybersecurity, and online gambling domains.Onder Kayabasi was the name of the account that contacted the author on LinkedIn, and although that profile is no longer available, a user account of the same name is still visible on Elon Musks X social media platform.Image credit: Via IdeogramThe post Fake Web3 recruiters, linked to North Korea, installing crypto-stealing malware appeared first on ReadWrite.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni

READWRITE.COMPepes Potential to Break Through Resistance as Pepe Unchained is Set for a Major DebutPepes market strength is undeniable, as evidenced by its consistent weekly performance and a recent surge in market cap to $4.5 billion.This solidifies Pepes position as a dominant player in the meme coin sector, where numerous Pepe-themed coins aspire to emulate its success.One such contender, Pepe Unchained, has entered presale with strong backing and significant potential for substantial returns. As its presale gains momentum, this Layer 2 blockchain is poised to set the meme coin market up for a rally, with investors closely monitoring its trajectory.Pepe (PEPE) price analysisPepe, a popular meme coin, has experienced a volatile period in recent weeks. While its market capitalization has grown significantly from $3 billion to around $4 billion, it has faced a recent decline of 2.78%, bringing its value to $3.85 billion.This places the coin 25th out of nearly 10,000 cryptocurrencies listed on CoinMarketCap, a strong showing for a meme coin. Despite a 29% drop in trading volume, Pepe remains bullish, ranking 12th in terms of overall volume performance.Pepes performance has increased by 6% in the past week, and the trend shows a strong three-day upward momentum from October 4th to 7th.Although there was a slight pullback due to Bitcoins broader market influence, the long-term outlook for Pepe remains promising, with many analysts optimistic about the coins future trajectory.Analyzing the macro perspective, one can observe a well-defined upward-sloping parallel channel, characterized by significant support levels on the lower side and resistance levels on the upper side.This channel was breached back in July, leading into August, which was consistent with the broader cryptocurrency market experiencing a substantial pullback.Since then, a falling wedge pattern has emerged, which typically suggests a breakout to the upsidean encouraging indication of potential price movement. Currently, a breakout is underway, although the measure move remains incomplete.The measure move is calculated by taking the distance from the low of the wedge to its high, with the target set at $0.00001223. After experiencing a parabolic run of approximately 50%, a pullback was expected, and a retracement of around 26% has been observed.The asset appears poised for a significant upward move towards the previous high, especially as indicated by the 4-hour volume-weighted average true range (ATR) band, which is trending positively.However, caution is warranted, as there is a strong likelihood of encountering resistance on the 12-hour chart, where previous attempts to break through have met with rejection.Given this context, the short-term outlook for Pepe remains bullish, with the potential to complete the measure move and achieve an approximate 25% increase in value.If youre looking for investment opportunities that could offer big returns and increase in value during the next bull run, check out our guide here for thebest crypto presales of 2024.Pepe Unchained: A layer 2 blockchain with huge potentialIn addition to the core Pepe token, the Pepe ecosystem is set to expand with the upcoming launch of Pepe Unchained, a Layer 2 blockchain built on Ethereum.Designed to facilitate the creation of meme coins, Pepe Unchained promises lower transaction fees and faster processing times, similar to renowned layer 2 solutions like Solana and Avalanche. For those interested in purchasing $PEPU tokens, they can be bought using ETH, USDT, or credit cards.Additionally, purchases can also be made with BNB; however, if the acquisition occurs on Binance Smart Chain during the presale, investors will not be eligible for the 117% annual returns from staking.Therefore, it is recommended to buy on Ethereum if you wish to take advantage of staking benefits. The total amount of tokens staked has reached 1.3 billion, indicating a strong interest in staking the $PEPU token.And with that, Pepe Unchained reaches $18.5M raised.The community is STRONG. The tech is STRONG. And we're gaining new ground everyday. pic.twitter.com/kEzq8lVIge Pepe Unchained (@pepe_unchained) October 10, 2024Currently in its presale phase, Pepe Unchained has already raised an impressive $18.5 million. Experts anticipate substantial growth potential, projecting returns of 20x to 50x for early investors once the project officially launches.This presents a compelling opportunity for those looking to enter the market before widespread adoption occurs.Investors should closely monitor Pepes progress in the coming weeks, as the asset continues to exceed expectations and demonstrate strong performance.

READWRITE.COMRed Dead Redemption PC specs unveiled can you run it?Almost 15 years later we finally get to have a look at the PC specs for Read Dead Redemption The same year the game originally came out programmers were testing Instagram for the first time, One Direction was formed and Iceland had that big volcano that grounded air traffic for weeks. It was the perfect time to play RDR, and although its been a bit of a wait, we cant wait to play it once more, this time on a proper monitor with proper controls.Having announced the arrival just a few days ago, Rockstar has now told us what kind of gaming rig we need to play this classic, so lets have a look to see if you have something that will cope with the specs.Red Dead Redemption PC SpecificationsWe only get Minimum and Recommended specs sheets for RDR. It doesnt look like it will be anything too onerous for most games to get this up and running and looking as pretty as it can do.RequirementMinimumRecommendedProcessorIntel Core i5-4670 / AMD FX-9590Intel Core i5-8500 / AMD Ryzen 5 3500XMemory8 GB RAM8 GB RAMGraphicsNVIDIA GeForce GTX 960 / AMD Radeon R7 360NVIDIA RTX 2070 / AMD RX 5700 XTDirectXVersion 12Version 12Storage12 GB available space12 GB available spaceOSWindows 10 64-BitWindows 10 64-BitSound CardDirect X CompatibleDirect X CompatibleAdditional NotesSSD recommendedThe minimum and recommended specs for the PC release of Red Dead Redemption reflect its original 2010 release date, with modern tweaks to handle 2024 hardware. Its a relatively lightweight game in todays terms, especially for such a huge, open-world classic. At a time when we are already seeing games clamoring for 4080s and the like, it will be good to play a game at full settings without fear of your PC setting on fire.Minimum Specs: The Intel i5-4670 or AMD FX-9590 processors and 8GB RAM requirements are pretty low by todays standards. The GPU demands, such as a GTX 960 or Radeon R7 360, were mid-range cards from several generations ago, so most gamers with even an older system should be able to run this decently.Recommended Specs: The Intel i5-8500 or Ryzen 5 3500X paired with an RTX 2070 or RX 5700 XT leans more toward mainstream gaming rigs from a couple of years ago. These specs suggest that the game will look and run beautifully on hardware that a lot of PC gamers may have long since retired to a drawer, or that spare parts box under the stairs.The post Red Dead Redemption PC specs unveiled can you run it? appeared first on ReadWrite.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni

READWRITE.COMYouTube confirms it isnt hiding the skip button, but are changing the ad experienceAfter users on Reddit suggested YouTube is hiding the skip button that comes up during adverts, the video-sharing platform has confirmed it isnt removing or hiding the skip.It was in a Reddit thread on r/extremelyinfuriating where someone shared a screenshot of an advert on the website writing YouTube adding blackout squares over adverts to hide the skip button.One person responded saying they thought their app was glitching on their iPad, while another suggested it could be a bug and the app needed to be updated.Then, two days ago, the publisher Android Police reported the countdown timer that usually appears when the advert is playing counting down to the skip seems to be going away.Currently, advertorials play at the beginning of a monetized video, as well as in the middle and at the end. These vary in lengths, but some can be bypassed if the option to do is present.The skippable videos have an option to be passed after five seconds, while those that cant are 15 or 20 seconds in length. If watching on TV, the ad can be 30 seconds long. There are also short bumper ads which contain a few non-skippable videos of up to six seconds.In previous years, these adverts could be skipped by people using an ad-blocker but YouTube has cracked down on this over the last few months. In May, people using ad-blockers were unable to watch the videos.Countdown timer on YouTube ads now to appear as progress barIn a statement to Android Police, the Google-owned company said the behavior users are seeing is intentional.YouTube is not hiding the skip button. On skippable ads, the button appears after 5 seconds into playback, as always.To allow users to focus on the video creative and make the player more seamless with YouTube content, we are reducing elements on the ads player. In doing so, viewers can engage more deeply with the ad through a cleaner experience.Viewers on the mobile and desktop experience may see the countdown timer now appear as a progress bar at the bottom of the screen.YouTube has been rolling out yearly updates that offer a more modern and immersive viewing experience while also improving how users watch videos. In alignment with these updates, across the platform, the ads experience is also evolving.Featured Image: Via IdeogramThe post YouTube confirms it isnt hiding the skip button, but are changing the ad experience appeared first on ReadWrite.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni

READWRITE.COMU.S. charges 3 companies and 15 individuals for crypto fraudThe US has brought the first-ever charges against financial services firms for alleged market manipulation and wash trading in the cryptocurrency industry.A total of 18 people and entities have been chargedwith widespread fraud andmanipulation in the cryptocurrency markets, and the charges wereunsealed in Boston.Four defendants have pleaded guilty, another has agreed to plead guilty, and authorities have apprehended three other defendants in Texas, the United Kingdom, and Portugal this week.More than $25 million in crypto has been seized, with multiple trading bots deactivated.A United States Attorneys Office, District of Massachusetts, press release, says: According to the charging documents, the defendants who created cryptocurrency companies made false statements about their cryptocurrencies (tokens) and executed sham trades in those tokens (wash trades) to create the appearance of trading activity that would make the tokens look like good investments.These deceptive tactics allegedly attracted new investors and purchasers, which resulted in an increase in the tokens trading prices. The defendants are then alleged to have sold their tokens at the artificially inflated prices, a fraud commonly known as a pump and dump.Wash trading is a type of market manipulation where an entity sells and buys the same financial instruments to create a false impression of market activity.Crypto fraud charges described as new twist to old-school financial crimeThe cryptocurrency companies involved are also alleged to have hired financial services firms to wash trade their tokens in exchange for payment.Jodi Cohen, Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Boston Division, is quoted in the press release as saying: What the FBI uncovered in this case is essentially a new twist to old-school financial crime.Operation Token Mirrors targeted nefarious token developers, promoters, and market makers in the crypto space. What we uncovered has resulted in charges against the leadership of four cryptocurrency companies, and four crypto market makers and their employees who are accused of spearheading a sophisticated trading scheme that allegedly bilked honest investors out of millions of dollars.The FBI took the unprecedented step of creating its very own cryptocurrency token and company to identify, disrupt, and bring these alleged fraudsters to justice.Featured Image: AI-generated via IdeogramThe post U.S. charges 3 companies and 15 individuals for crypto fraud appeared first on ReadWrite.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni

READWRITE.COMSorare pleads not guilty to UKGCs unlicensed gambling accusations in legal disputeFantasy sport crypto platform Sorare has pleaded not guilty after the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) accused the company of unlicensed gambling activity in the UK. ReadWrite reported the charges earlier this month.The UKGC has accused the Paris-based company of breaching the Gambling Act 2005 by providing facilities for gambling without holding an operating licence. At the end of last month, the commission announced in an exceptionally rare instance of the regulator using its prosecutorial powers.According to Casino.org, UKGC states: The charges are the culmination of a three-year UKGC investigation into Sorare, which has a license with the English Premier League to sell digital sports cards of players from all 20 of the leagues teams, a deal rumored to be worth US$40 million a year.In response, Sorare issued a statement acknowledging the claims. However, the company stated: The Commission has misunderstood our business and wrongly determined that gambling laws apply to Sorare. We cannot comment further whilst legal proceedings are underway.UKGC reports it will not be commenting further on the case until its conclusion.On Friday (Oct. 4), the company reaffirmed its stance by entering a not-guilty plea at the Birmingham Magistrates Court. A pre-trial hearing is set for March 10, 2025, with the trial scheduled to resume on June 16.What is Sorare?The football-themed NFT platform, which is a partner of the Premier League, allows players to take control of a virtual team consisting of digital cards each purchasable with cryptocurrency.Sorare has over five million users across 180 countries, as well as backing from investors like SoftBank, Accel, and Benchmark. It has also collaborated with well-known athletes like Serena Williams, Lionel Messi, Kylian Mbapp and Rio Ferdinand as investors, ambassadors, and advisors to gain traction in the world of sports.The UKGC launched an investigation into the French company in 2021 to determine if it required a license to operate in the UK, which has since escalated into an ongoing legal dispute.A Sorare spokesperson said: In the hearing on 4th October, our UK legal counsel confirmed our intention to challenge the claims made by the Gambling Commission. We firmly deny any claims that Sorare is a gambling product under UK laws. The Commission has misunderstood our business and wrongly determined that gambling laws apply to Sorare. We cannot comment further whilst legal proceedings are underway.Update: A UK Gambling Commission spokesperson told ReadWrite: We will not be commenting further on the case until its conclusion.Featured image: CanvaThe post Sorare pleads not guilty to UKGCs unlicensed gambling accusations in legal dispute appeared first on ReadWrite.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni

READWRITE.COMAuthor sues Bungie claiming Destiny 2s story copied his original workAn author has filed a copyright lawsuit against Bungie, after claiming the studio copied his original work about a unique and captivating fantasy world for Destiny 2s Red War campaign.According to The Game Post, Matthew Kelsey Martineau, also known under the pen name Caspar Cole, initiated legal action with the US District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana. Martineau reportedly published the original work about a unique and captivating fantasy world on WordPress in 2013 and 2014. It told the story of a powerful military force embroiled in an unending cycle of warfare known as the Red Legion.The suit alleges: Although Destiny 2 offers an immersive and thrilling gaming experience that keeps players on the edge of their seats, the game is based directly on Martineaus source work.In addition to pointing out that Destiny 2s Red Legion Cabal shares the same name as his creation, the writer argues that the motivations of both armies leaders are strikingly similar.He claims that his character, Yinnerah, and Destiny 2s villain, Dominus Ghaul, are both urged, guided, and assisted by outcast mentors (scholars) to overthrow their leaders to rise to power with the intentions of invading Earth. Both leaders also aim to achieve their goals by seizing control of an orbital installationDestiny 2s Traveler in Ghauls case, and Martineaus Tononob Station.Martineau claims that Bungies need to completely start over on Destiny 2s development just 16 months before its release led to the alleged copying of his work. He is seeking damages and injunctive relief. Bungie has yet to respond to the lawsuit.Plus, his lawsuit also demands that Bungie cease distributing any materials substantially similar to Destiny 2 and provide a detailed accounting of all sales of productions or services that infringe on his rights, among other requests.Is Bungie in trouble?In August, ReadWrite reported that Bungie was in serious trouble before PlayStation acquired it in 2022, hence it cut 220 jobs despite the games latest expansion success. Bungie chief executive Pete Parsons attributed the job losses to costs of development and industry shifts as well as enduring economic conditions.Destiny 2: The Final Shape launched on June 4 for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows PC, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X. Its the last expansion for Destiny 2.ReadWrite has reached out to Bungie for comment.Featured image: BungieThe post Author sues Bungie claiming Destiny 2s story copied his original work appeared first on ReadWrite.0 Commenti 0 condivisioni
