The Cardano ecosystem is seeing remarkable demand for its non-fungible tokens (NFTs), which might have partly led to some of its NFT collections being sold at noteworthy prices.

Notably, the demand for Cardano Apes has been sustained, driving prices higher. A Twitter user drew attention to this fact, reporting that a Cardano Ape NFT just sold for 63,000 ADA, valued at nearly 20,000 U.S. dollars.

The Twitter user went on to ask for thoughts about the sale. The tweet caught the attention of Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson, who reacted with a GIF image that might suggest someone exploding with excitement.

Another interpretation of the GIF image might be to infer that the sale was an "explosive" one. Whichever it may be, the Cardano founder's intent remains unknown.

Ryanair to Parody Musk: Bitcoin Doesn't Fly Here

Ryanair, Europe's largest airline that is known for its unapologetic and humorous social media presence, responded to a parody account of Elon Musk, stating that they do not accept Bitcoin.

The parody account had earlier tweeted a mock offer to buy the @x Twitter account for a large sum of money following the real Elon Musk's recent renaming of Twitter to X.

Ryanair's response is in line with its established social media strategy, which, as reported by The Washington Post, aims to make the airline the "most talked about brand on social media."

The strategy, led by Michael Corcoran, the airline's head of social media, involves a mix of humor, sarcasm and a deliberate departure from the traditional corporate voice.

The airline's social media team is known for its quick-witted responses and engagement with current trends, often resulting in viral posts that garner millions of views.

This is not the first time Ryanair has engaged with the topic of cryptocurrency on social media. Ryanair has mocked Musk and other "crypto bros" following a significant drop in cryptocurrency prices.

Last year, the airline posted a tweet comparing a picture of the "Tinder Swindler" Simon Leviev in a private jet to one edited into a Ryanair seat, with the caption "Crypto bros yesterday vs. Crypto bros today."

Ryanair's stance on Bitcoin aligns with that of its CEO Michael O'Leary, who is known for his bearish views on the cryptocurrency.

As reported by U.Today, O'Leary stated that he would never invest in Bitcoin, comparing it to a Ponzi scheme and advising people to avoid it "like a plague" back in 2020.

Burning Crypto: Basics of Deflation Concept and ElmoERC Burn Portal Role

Disclaimer: The opinions expressed by our writers are their own and do not represent the views of U.Today. The financial and market information provided on U.Today is intended for informational purposes only. U.Today is not liable for any financial losses incurred while trading cryptocurrencies. Conduct your own research by contacting financial experts before making any investment decisions.

Launched in 2023, ElmoERC Burn Portal is an impressive example of how burning crypto works and helps entrepreneurs to make the tokenomical designs of their Web3 projects healthier and more attractive.

Burning crypto is a deliberate process of permanently removing tokens from circulation. Unlike traditional banking systems that can mint new currency at will, cryptocurrencies operate on fixed and predetermined supplies.

Burning serves as a counterbalance to inflation, ensuring that the token's total supply decreases over time. As a result, the remaining tokens become scarcer, potentially driving up their value in the market.

Burning crypto can be achieved through various methods, each tailored to a project's specific goals and requirements. The process often involves sending tokens to a specific address, known as the “burn address” or “dead wallet.”

Once sent to this address, the tokens become inaccessible, effectively taken out of circulation.

The burning mechanism serves multiple purposes, each contributing to the project's overall ecosystem and potential value:

As such, token burn schemes make cryptocurrency tokenomics more efficient and protected from inflation.

ElmoERC holds the title of one of the most eccentric deflationary coins, employing both sell tax and utility mechanisms to consistently decrease its supply. This cutting-edge feature allows token holders to send their tokens to the '0000' null wallet, permanently removing them from the supply.

Unlike other projects that burn tokens to the 'dead' wallet, which only locks them without true removal, ElmoERC's Burn Portal ensures that all tokens sent to the '0000' wallet are irretrievably gone. This unique approach enhances the token's deflationary nature, fostering a safer and more sustainable long-term ecosystem.

ElmoERC's Burn Portal is just one facet of its comprehensive ecosystem, which sets it apart as a trailblazer in the meme coin space. 

In conclusion, ElmoERC's Burn Portal actively reduces the token supply. Beyond the burning mechanism, ElmoERC's comprehensive ecosystem and innovative utility features contribute to a dynamic and rewarding experience for its community.

As the project continues to evolve and explore new horizons, its dedication to creating a deflationary and sustainable environment stands as a driving force behind its success in the meme coin realm.

The ElmoERC Burn Portal is designed to provide an efficient and rewarding burning experience for token holders. Users can sell their ELMO tokens on the Burn Portal against the DEX spot price. The tokens sold are then immediately sent to the '0000' null address, removing them permanently from the supply.

In return for using the Burn Portal, users receive the equivalent value in USDT, a largest stablecoin, ensuring a seamless and stable user experience. This feature not only enhances the deflationary nature of ElmoERC but also offers holders an opportunity to benefit from the project's ongoing burning mechanism.

Burning crypto has emerged as a captivating concept in the crypto space, offering projects an innovative way to create value and scarcity. By permanently removing tokens from circulation, burning fosters a deflationary ecosystem, potentially benefiting both token holders and the project's long-term sustainability.

ElmoERC's Burn Portal exemplifies the power of burning crypto done right. Through this revolutionary feature, ElmoERC actively increases its value, ensuring the safety and security of its ecosystem. As burning mechanisms continue to shape the crypto world, projects like ElmoERC pave the way for a more dynamic and sustainable future.

XRP Now Oversold, Big News May Be Coming for Shiba Inu, XRP Army Fascinated by New Twitter 'X' Logo: Crypto News Digest by U.Today

Check out the top three news stories over the past day presented to you by U.Today.

Many altcoins that had been on a roll since the beginning of the month are now falling off the wagon, with XRP being one of them. At the moment of writing, the token is trading at $0.6903, down by 1% over the past 24 hours and by almost 9% over the past seven days. XRP's trading volume is in decline as well, as it plummeted by 10.76% over the past day. With bears selling, there is a chance of a deeper fall if there is no cushion in the near future. Considering the momentum XRP picked up over the past few weeks, many analysts assume that the coin is oversold. With this perception of overselling, we can expect to see a revival after the bears have satisfied their profit-taking desires.

Shytoshi Kusama Remains Silent, SHIB Army Expresses Concern

The lead developer of Shiba Inu who is believed to have co-created it together with Ryoshi, Shytoshi Kusama, has not left any message on the official Shibarium channel on Telegram for a long while already.

His last tweet that would contain any text, except emojis, was spotted last week. Now many SHIB users on Telegram seem to be concerned about their leader’s absence and some are wondering if there will be any more Shibarium-themed articles in the SHIB blog before the Canadian blockchain conference in August.

The last actual tweet with a text message was published by Shytoshi Kusama last week – there he warned SHIB users to buy cold wallets only directly from manufacturers. On Saturday, he tweeted a “party face” emoji, commenting on a recent Shibarium milestone, in which the total amount of transactions rose to over 31 million.

Since then, there have been only a couple of retweets. As for the “Shibarium Tech” Telegram channel, there have been no messages from the lead SHIB developer for a while already.

Some SHIB fans on Telegram are also urging Shytoshi to release another article about Shibarium before the ETH Toronto conference takes place in Canada on August 15-16.

Many expect the Layer-2 blockchain for Shiba Inu to be launched in August, despite the warning from the marketing expert of the SHIB team named Lucie that there is no any precise date for the Shibarium release. In a recent tweet, she only stated that the developers are really close to finishing the Shibarium mainnet and launching it.
