The new Fed Funds rate now stands at <a href=\"https:\/\/tradingeconomics.com\/united-states\/interest-rate\">2.5%<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Although increasing interest rates is often seen as negative for risk-on assets like Bitcoin, the Fed Chair, Jerome Powell, hinted that the pace of future interest rate hikes is likely to slow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to the dovish sentiment shift, both stocks and cryptocurrencies reacted positively throughout trading on Wednesday. Bitcoin recorded an 8% daily increase while the Nasdaq 100 technology-focused index enjoyed a 4% increase. Bullish price action continued into the weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the same week, US Gross Domestic Product (GDP) figures were released that indicated the US had now shrunk for the second quarter in a row. According to experts, the second back-to-back slow down in economic growth unofficially suggests that the US has now slipped into a recession.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There will now be a 2-month break until the next US monetary policy meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/wJkede5LNsMaIBx8K23kDx7STVpF901cqFAad14C3MBNBJQ4jA4TO6NkPst_DCbDHe2iJB3KHqFGu8f_dEkAlsM6efUiCDnzBD4CZY4Jzbq3El0d86SYdks64hvjrQnutj5KGZvvkJvtn1YgXp-Wb04\" alt=\"US Federal Fund Rate between 2014 and 2022.\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>US Federal Fund Rate between 2014 and 2022.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/tradingeconomics.com\/united-states\/interest-rate\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-bitcoin-lightning-payments-tested-against-visa\"><strong>Bitcoin Lightning payments tested against Visa<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>On Tuesday last week, Bitcoin\u2019s layer-2 payments solution, known as the <a href=\"https:\/\/xcoins.com\/en\/blog\/how-the-lightning-network-is-revolutionizing-bitcoin\/\">Lightning Network<\/a>, was pitted against traditional payments systems in Gibraltar. Although few believe Bitcoin payments can ever become as quick as the services offered by global payment providers, the Bitcoin Lightning payment was completed quicker than both Visa and Mastercard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>News of the experiment was first announced via a video titled \u201cRACE OF THE RAILS\u201d that was published on <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/JoeNakamoto\/status\/1551546953934278660?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1551546953934278660%7Ctwgr%5Ed89ab67e24754af8c19cd6d92d35ed38915bfcbe%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&amp;ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fbitcoinnews.com%2Flightning-faster-than-visa%2F\">Twitter<\/a> by Cointelegraph reporter, Joe Hall, also known as Joe Nakamoto. At the start of the video, Hall explains that \u201cwe\u2019re doing a fiat vs Bitcoin Lightning pay test in Gibraltar. \u00a32.20 loaded onto both screens, we have Bitcoin vs Fiat.\u201d According to the post, the experiment was completed inside the Gibraltar Bakery.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Together with a colleague, two payment cards, one utilizing traditional fiat and one utilizing the Lightning Network were tapped onto two separate payment machines. After a few seconds, it was confirmed that the Bitcoin Lightning payment had been completed the quickest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>News of the Bitcoin Lightning win went viral among the cryptocurrency community as it served to prove that Bitcoin can be effectively used for payments thanks to this innovative second-layer technology.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/xcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/lightning-bolt-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\" Image of a Lightning bolt graphic\" class=\"wp-image-5742\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-vector\/lighting-bolt-form-lines-triangles-particle-1220787667\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-ripple-calls-for-crypto-regulation-amid-xrp-case\"><strong>Ripple calls for crypto regulation amid XRP case<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The legal representatives of Ripple, the company behind popular cryptocurrency, XRP, have urged US lawmakers to create sensible cryptocurrency legislation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stuart Alderoty, who is part of Ripple\u2019s General Counsel, <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/s_alderoty\/status\/1552311595438444544?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Etweet\">tweeted<\/a> on Wednesday, stating that \u201cunproven allegations masquerading as regulation is bad policy that hurts consumers and markets who are whipsawed by the whims of an unchecked regulator. As a result, American innovation \u2014 and the jobs created \u2014 are fleeing the US.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In an accompanying <a href=\"https:\/\/www.realclearmarkets.com\/articles\/2022\/07\/27\/halting_the_secs_regulatory_attack_on_crypto_844618.html\">report<\/a>, published by Alderoty, the legal representative then went on to ask US lawmakers in Washington to focus on the Digital Commodity Exchange Act and the Responsible Financial Innovation Act. According to Alderoty, these acts seek to determine the line between securities and commodities with regard to digital assets and would be a good place to start.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ripple is currently taking part in one of the largest legal battles in the cryptocurrency industry. The company is being sued by the Security and Exchange Commission, which claims that the native XRP coin was a security rather than a digital currency. As a result of the ongoing legal battle, XRP\u2019s price was subdued throughout much of the 2021 bull market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, XRP continues to hold one of the highest market capitalizations of any cryptocurrency in the market. As a result, all within the cryptocurrency community have got their eyes fixated on the ongoing lawsuit which could set the precedent for the future of cryptocurrency regulation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh6.googleusercontent.com\/65kx27d4Xr-RUEIFUxC51FvzsWY1o54rPzGeCoH9Tkw_X92bWENCp8iYTqe5CwzDR2muHOJSrnl1aeVQKbljDEJcny-jzUZ7IZJxaGQxF0G-aQHLV7dOwwh6ar80X8CSBixppXN6JxZyG6lbUfK2BpY\" alt=\"Tweet from Stuart Alderoty, legal counsel for Ripple\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><em>Tweet from Stuart Alderoty, legal counsel for Ripple<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/s_alderoty\/status\/1552311595438444544?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Etweet\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-hong-kong-university-to-build-metaverse-campus\"><strong>Hong Kong University To Build Metaverse Campus<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has confirmed plans to develop a brand new online campus dedicated to the metaverse. The new campus, called MetaHKUST, will allow students from both the Hong Kong and Guangzhou campuses to mix in a virtual reality environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.scmp.com\/news\/hong-kong\/education\/article\/3186907\/class-its-own-hong-kong-university-science-and-technology\">reports<\/a>, the online virtual-reality campus is part of a bigger plan to promote immersive learning. Many HKUST students study from abroad and can\u2019t attend real-world meetings. These lectures will now be held in the metaverse. Regardless of a student\u2019s location, they will be able to meet and participate in classes within MetaHKUST.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alongside immersive learning, the move from the university has been prompted due to the increasing reliance on video conferencing software, such as Zoom. According to Pan Hui, the Chair Professor of Computational Media and Arts, \u201c[Using Zoom] feels like you\u2019re just looking at a 2D screen. But through virtual reality, you can feel as if you\u2019re there. I think interaction is very important for learning. How you interact with students around you will increase your learning outcome.\u201d&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This sentiment was echoed by the university\u2019s Vice President for Institutional Advancement, Wang Yang, who said the metaverse was \u201chere to stay. Last year the buzzword was NFT. This year, it is the metaverse. It will become our reality in the future. We can imagine living in the metaverse soon.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before the online metaverse can open, the university is building the physical infrastructure required to achieve the ambitious plan. This includes dedicated virtual reality classrooms, sensors, cameras, and visualization tools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/xcoins.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/hkuni-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"An image of the entrance to the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology\" class=\"wp-image-5744\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.shutterstock.com\/image-photo\/hong-kong-march-21-2012-sign-1870392973\"><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-chipotle-launches-buy-the-dip-200k-giveaway\"><strong>Chipotle launches \u201cbuy the dip\u201d $200K giveaway<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The US fast food giant, Chipotle, launched a brand new cryptocurrency competition last week where Chipotle customers could compete for the chance to win Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana, Avalanche, and Dogecoin.

Reward points could then be used to play the Buy The Dip online game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The crypto giveaway was broken down into prizes that included $45,000 worth of Bitcoin, $10,000 worth of Ethereum, $13,750 worth of Solana, $14,250 worth of Avalanche, and $14,250 worth of Dogecoin. The end of the crypto giveaway was marked by National Avocado Day, which was celebrated on July 31st.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The \u201cBuy The Dip\u201d competition follows a $100,000 \u201cBurrito or Bitcoin\u201d giveaway that was launched by Chipotle as part of National Burrito Day in April 2021. In June 2022, the fast food chain also confirmed plans to accept over 98 different cryptocurrencies in over 3000 restaurants across the US.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Chief Marketing Officer of Chipotle, Chris Brandt released a statement alongside news of the latest competition. \u201cWe want to build the next generation of Chipotle fandom by connecting with the Web3 community.
