Ripple is the catchall name for the cryptocurrency platform, the transactional protocol for which is actually XRP, in the same fashion as Ethereum is the name for the platform that facilitates trades in Ether. Like other cryptocurrencies, Ripple is built atop the idea of a distributed ledger network which requires various parties to participate in validating transactions, rather than any singular centralized authority. That facilitates transactions all over the world, and transfer fees are far cheaper than the likes of bitcoin. Unlike other cryptocurrencies, XRP transfers are effectively immediate, requiring no typical confirmation time.  Ripple was originally founded by a single company, Ripple Labs, and continues to be backed by it, rather than the larger network of developers that continue bitcoin’s development. It also doesn’t have a fluctuating amount of its currency in existence. Where bitcoin has a continually growing pool with an eventual maximum, and Ethereum theoretically has no limit, Ripple was created with all of its 100 billion XRP tokens right out of the gate. That number is maintained with no mining and most of the tokens are owned and held by Ripple Labs itself — around 60 billion at the latest count.  Even at the recently reduced value of around half a dollar per XRP, that means Ripple Labs is currently sitting on around $20 billion worth of the cryptocurrency (note: Ripple’s price crashed hard recently, and may be worth far less than $60 billion by time you read this). It holds 55 billion XRP in an escrow account, which allows it to sell up to a billion per month if it so chooses in order to fund new projects and acquisitions. Selling such an amount would likely have a drastic effect on the cryptocurrency’s value, and isn’t something Ripple Labs plans to do anytime soon.  In actuality, Ripple Labs is looking to leverage the technology behind XRP to allow for faster banking transactions around the world. While Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are built on the idea of separating financial transactions from the financial organizations of traditional currencies, Ripple is almost the opposite in every sense.  XRP by Ripple price can be found on this page alongside the market capitalization and additional stats.

What is the project about? Vara Network is a substrate-based future proof smart contract platform that is fast, scalable, and makes it simple to create and deploy next-generation Web3.0 dApps Vara is the first standalone network in the Gear Protocol  Gear is a next-gen cloud infrastructure platform providing most intuitive and frictionless environment for web2 and web3 developers to build complex infrastructure solutions and disruptive dApps for any ecosystem  What makes your project unique? Vara is built upon three core concepts: The actor model, and persistent memory — two widely adopted primitives from massive computation and microservices architecture spaces  Wasm — a WebAssembly-based virtual machine that runs on all modern browsers. Proven to be faster than any alternative web2 virtual machines  Vara was created to serve as a wasm-native hub for innovative protocols that leverage parallel execution and asynchronous programming to deliver leading decentralized products in any segment  History of your project. Gear Protocol and the Vara Network were originally created by Nikolay Volf, one of the core developers of Polkadot. In 2021, he embarked on building an advanced layer 1 smart contract platform using Substrate, Polkadot's custom framework. His vision included creating a platform that enables fast and efficient execution of robust, feature-rich dApps while in a seamless development environment similar to that of Web 2.0 development. He did this by  harnessing the power of innovative technologies like Wasm, the Actor Model, and Persistent Memory. These technologies significantly enhance smart contract development and provide a seamless end-user experience and provide the foundation for the development of Vara Network.  1. Q2 2021 - Pre-Seed Round: In the second quarter of 2021, the Protocol secured its initial funding through a pre-seed round. This likely involved seeking investment from early-stage investors or venture capitalists to kickstart the development of the project.  2.

Q4 2022 - Testnet Launch.   5. Q1 2023 - PoA Launch: In the first quarter of 2023, Vara achieved launch of its Proof of Authority (PoA) consensus network, which is a chain candidate for mainnet.  Current Status of Vara:  Presently, the project boasts a talented and diverse decentralized workforce, consisting of dozens of engineers and other community members  to drive the project's success.  One of the remarkable aspects of Vara is its substantial pipeline of initiatives with over 40 projects.  What’s next for your project? Current projects being researched and developed by the community:  - Intensive testing and improvement of the actor model features in the blockchain space  - Launch of the key stack of dApps in our parallel and asynchronous environment   - Development of innovative infrastructure solutions (e.g offchain zk actors including machine learning) independently and together with the segment leaders  What can your token be used for? VARA tokens maintain core utility features required for the network to operate: transaction fees staking and network security governance other: gas pools for gas reservation  Contributors to the Gear protocol are exploring the mechanics of how to distribute a portion of block rewards directly toward dApp developers

The Brazilian government announced on Wednesday a multi-billion-dollar package to support local companies and exporters affected by the U.S. tariffs.The package, dubbed "Sovereign Brazil," offers a credit lifeline of 30 billion reais ($5.5 billion). Other measures include postponing tax charges for companies affected by the tariffs, tax credits to small and medium-sized companies, and insurance against cancelled orders.The plan also incentivizes public purchases of items that could not be exported to the U.S. Brazil has, so far, not announced reciprocal tariffs.The U.S. has imposed a net rate of 50% on most imports from the country, in part motivated by the prosecution of Donald Trump's ally and Brazil's former President Jair Bolsonaro. Some of the levies come into force later this month, and do not cover exports of items including orange juice, aircraft and their parts, certain machinery, and energy products.Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva earlier issued a rebuttal, saying that "the interference of the North American government in Brazilian justice is unacceptable."Currently, Brazil's top exports to the U.S. are mineral fuels and oils, iron and steel, machinery including parts for aircraft and nuclear reactors, and coffee and spices.&nbsp;With its rapidly digitizing population of over 200 million, Brazil remains a crucial market for U.S. tech giants, such as Uber, Meta, and Alphabet, while companies like Starbucks and Coca-Cola rely heavily on coffee and raw juice, among other imports, from Brazil.On Wednesday, Luna said: “We cannot be scared, nervous and anxious when there is a crisis. A crisis is for us to create new things... In this case, what is unpleasant is that the reasons given to impose sanctions against Brazil do not exist.”Hours later, U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced new sanctions against at least two Brazilian officials. Like Bolsonaro's allies, Trump has repeated the narrative that the former Brazilian President's prosecution for attempting to overturn his 2022 election loss was unjustified and against the law, and the current government is committing human rights abuses.So far this year,&nbsp;<a href="https://stocktwits.com/symbol/EWZS">the iShares MSCI Brazil Small-Cap ETF</a> (EWZS), which provides investors exposure to small-cap companies in Brazil, is up 39%.
