friend.tech: The Team Is Focusing on Scaling the Infrastructure, Fixing Bugs and Setting Basic Site Policies

According to Decrypt, Racer, co-founder of decentralized social platform friend.tech, said in an interview on August 22nd: "We initially released the application for load testing, but we didn't expect the dApp to become popular and spread quickly. The team is currently urgently repairing some shortcomings. We want to take a breath and feel excited about what we can do next."

Racer also said that the team is currently focused on expanding the infrastructure of friend.tech, fixing errors, and setting basic policies for the website; as for how to maintain the growth of friend.tech or protect it from increasingly severe legal issues, it will have to wait until the website stabilizes.

In addition, friend.tech stated on X platform (formerly Twitter) that Shares has been renamed Keys. In fact, Shares was just a placeholder during the development process, and friend.tech believes that Keys better describes its use for unlocking in-app features such as chatting with friends.

    Coinbase is developing a service that will target Australia's self-managed pensions sector, according to the exchange's Asia-Pacific Managing Director John O'Loghlen. The move comes as self-managed funds in Australia have increasingly held crypto, with nearly A$1 billion ($664 million) allocated to crypto as of the latest data from the Australian Taxation Office.
