Elon Musk continued to voice support of Dogecoin and gave his opinion on who the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto &#8211; creator of Bitcoin &#8211; might be. Elsewhere, luxury car manufacturer, Ferrari, joined forces with a blockchain developer, MicroStrategy accumulated more BTC, and virtual reality fans celebrated New Year\u2019s Eve from inside the metaverse.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\r\n<li>Elon Musk speculates on the identity of Bitcoin\u2019s creator<\/li>\r\n<li>New Year\u2019s Eve parties are hosted in the metaverse<\/li>\r\n<li>Ferrari joins forces with blockchain developer<\/li>\r\n<li>MicroStrategy purchases more bitcoin<\/li>\r\n<li>S&amp;P Global predicts cryptocurrency expansion in 2022<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Musk continues to back Dogecoin and speculates on the identity of Bitcoin creator<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>During an <a href=\"https:\/\/markets.businessinsider.com\/news\/currencies\/elon-musk-bitcoin-satoshi-nakamoto-creator-cryptocurrency-history-2021-12\">interview<\/a> with the researcher, Lex Fridman, on Tuesday, Tesla\u2019s CEO Elon Musk took the opportunity to support his openly favored cryptocurrency &#8211; <a href=\"\/en\/buy-crypto\/dogecoin\/\">Dogecoin<\/a>. Musk has publicly praised the meme cryptocurrency throughout much of 2020 and 2021.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>In contrast to Bitcoin, Musk believes Dogecoin to be superior. \u201cPart of the reason why I think there is some merit to dogecoin, even though it was obviously created as a joke, is that it actually does have a much higher transaction volume capability than bitcoin.\u201d Musk\u2019s problem with bitcoin stems from the difficulties of using it efficiently for everyday purchases.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>While Musk outlined his concerns with Bitcoin, many in the crypto community were quick to remind him of the success of the <a href=\"\/en\/blog\/how-the-lightning-network-is-revolutionizing-bitcoin\/\">Lightning Network<\/a>, which has increased the scalability of Bitcoin. Lightning has already been implemented within many applications attached to the Bitcoin network.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>The entrepreneur then went on to discuss the identity of the pseudonymous <a href=\"\/en\/blog\/who-is-satoshi-nakamoto\/\">Satoshi Nakamoto<\/a>. When questioned whether he was Nakamoto, Musk quickly replied \u201cI\u2019m not\u201d and continued that he would tell the world if he was. He then went on to say that the ideas published just before Bitcoin was released could give you a pretty good idea of who might be behind the blockchain. \u201cThe evolution of ideas is pretty clear for that, and it seems as though Nick Szabo is probably more than anyone else responsible for the evolution of those ideas.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>Szabo is a computer scientist that specializes in cryptography and digital currencies but has always denied claims that he is Satoshi Nakamoto.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-2695\" src=\"https:\/\/s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/xcoins.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/03144942\/doge-wallet-1500-1024x693.jpg\" alt=\"Two golden dogecoins inside a brown wallet\r\n\" \/><\/figure>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>New Year\u2019s Eve party hosted in the Metaverse<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>The real estate company, Jamestown, and the crypto investment firm, Digital Currency Group (DCG) partnered up for the end of the year to host a <a href=\"https:\/\/edm.com\/events\/decentral-games-new-years-eve-metaverse-party\">New Year\u2019s Eve party<\/a> inside the metaverse.

By combining forces, they recreated the One Times Square New Year\u2019s Eve event within the virtual world. The party was held at section -109, -119 and featured a range of music, entertainment acts, and VIP lounges. There was also a live feed of the real world One Times Square with the famous Ball Drop.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>DCG Executive, Simon Koster, commented on the event during the week. \u201cThe metaverse is quickly evolving to bring together the most interesting and alluring parts of our favorite physical places around the world. From destinations to gaming, education, retail, and more, we can expect the metaverse to revolutionize our current online experience.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>Alongside Decentraland, the Roblox metaverse also witnessed a New Year\u2019s Eve party <a href=\"https:\/\/metro.co.uk\/2021\/12\/29\/paris-hilton-throwing-metaverse-nye-party-on-her-roblox-virtual-island-15837743\/\">hosted by Paris Hilton<\/a>.

The company\u2019s views were detailed within the annual \u2018<a href=\"https:\/\/www.spglobal.com\/_assets\/documents\/ratings\/research\/100772320.pdf\">Global Credit Outlook<\/a>\u2019 which was published on Wednesday. The report covers all aspects of global economics, including cryptocurrencies.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>The report describes that although cryptocurrencies are likely to face problems with adoption, the industry is likely to keep growing by complimenting traditional finance over the next year. The company believes that decentralized finance (DeFi) will play a large part in this, but will not remove the need for traditional finance.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>In addition, the report highlighted that three companies, MicroStrategy, Tesla, and Block.one, currently holds 84% of all corporate investments in bitcoin. While this is a small number, S&amp;P Global believes that many more institutions will follow suit in the near future.<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<p>With regard to other factors to look out for in 2022, the company believes that tokenization and regulation will play a huge role going forward. Tokenization will provide access to assets that would otherwise be inaccessible and regulation will be required for the continued growth of the sector.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n<p>\r\n\r\n<\/p>\r\n<figure
