iPollo and BitMart Jointly Host First Ever Campus Web3 Talks at Stanford University

Validated Project

The Campus Web3 Talks hosted by iPollo and BitMart successfully debuted at Stanford University on May 4. Organized by the Stanford Blockchain Club, featuring industry leaders and experts from Nano Labs, Activision Blizzard, and Cipholio Ventures, the event attracted more than 150 students and crypto enthusiasts. The seminar aims at providing an opportunity for students, young entrepreneurs, and crypto enthusiasts to learn from and network with industry leaders by covering hot topics such as Web3, Metaverse, AI, and the policy and investment environment in the industry.

The event started with a keynote by Jack Kong, Chairman & CEO of Nano Labs, who discussed the development of AI and Web3 building. He explored the advantages of AI, including AIGC, the infinite generation and expansion of scenes, and the AR Metaverse. As AI applications are booming unprecedentedly, he emphasized that it's the perfect timing to build Web3 with the combination of AI and blockchain. Kong also spoke about the iPollo platform, which makes Web3 application adventure more accessible by providing computing power, communication, concurrency, blockchain, and a tech ecosystem. He also presented the three laws of Web3 and the four stages of Web3 development, encouraging young entrepreneurs that "You are not a loser unless you quit."

The event also featured a panel discussion with other industry experts, including Marvin Kong, Chief Scientist at iPollo; Kaimin Hu, Chief Business Officer at BitMart; Michael Lee, VP of Activision Blizzard; Kun Peng, Founder of Stanford Blockchain Accelerator, and Lee Fan, Partner of Cipholio Ventures. The panelists shared valuable insights about the fast growth of the Web3 ecosystem this year, the VC's positive perspective on Web3 development and future potentials, advice for school graduates engaging with the Web3 industry, and the forecast of Web3 in the next 3-5 years.

Last, the Q&A session with the speakers and the pizza social allowed attendees to network and gain further insights into the Web3 and blockchain industry. The seminar provided cutting-edge information on various topics with tremendous implications in Web3 and Metaverse.

  • CFTC Warns Prediction Markets: Trader Incentive Programs May Encourage False Trading and Market Manipulation

    On August 13, the U.S. Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) Market Oversight Division issued a regulatory advisory reminding designated contract markets (DCM) of their regulatory obligations when self-certifying market maker, liquidity, trading, or incentive programs under CFTC Rules 40.5 and 40.6. The advisory addresses the increasing number of incentive program rule filings submitted under CFTC Rule 40.6(a), particularly those related to event contract products. The CFTC noted that some of these filings contain procedural or substantive deficiencies. These deficiencies may hinder staff's ability to assess whether the DCM has adequately notified the terms of the programs and whether it has sufficiently evaluated the compliance of the relevant programs with core principles and other regulatory requirements of the Commission. The guidance clarifies staff expectations regarding the procedural and substantive requirements when submitting materials under CFTC Rules 40.5 and 40.6, including initial submissions of incentive programs, amendments or changes to relevant programs, and submission procedures.

  • Bullish Sentiment in Bond Market Rises as 10-Year Treasury Yield Falls Below 1.7%

    On August 13, the domestic bond market has seen a continued rise in bullish sentiment, with long-term rates experiencing a significant breakthrough. Market data shows that after fluctuating around 1.7% for several days, the yield on the 10-year Treasury bond fell below the 1.7% mark again on August 12, closing at 1.694%. Meanwhile, the yield on the 30-year Treasury bond also declined, closing at 2.160%, marking a low for the year. Industry insiders believe that the current bond market trend is driven by multiple factors including expectations of loose monetary policy, a balanced and relaxed funding environment, and institutional investors increasing their positions. However, after the key level was breached, the market's bullish and bearish dynamics intensified, and the effective conditions for a sustained downward trend in interest rates still need further validation.

The Revolutionary Guard has been severely damaged and is in retreat, while their 'leadership' can at best be described as uncertain! They have no funds—this country is already 'full of holes.' All they have are fake news and 300% inflation, and the situation is worsening! Iran is now just talk without action, no longer the bully of the Middle East!"
