One of the backbones of the #MultiversX ecosystem is the #ESDT token standard.

1/11: The main difference is that ESDT is pre-coded, non-programmable, and with a fixed set of functionalities. #ERC20, on the other hand, requires developer expertise and auditing for robustness and security.
2/11: Here are the key functionalities of ESDT tokens:
⚗️Minting: Mint new tokens after their initial release.
🔥Burning: Users can burn a certain amount of their tokens.
⏯Pausing/Unpausing: Prohibit all operations except mint and burn.

[2/19] To begin, if you are completely unfamiliar with #CBDCs and the #Ripple solution, here is a nice place to start:
[3/19] One important reason for using a private version of the public #XRPL is that a central #bank needs to be able to control the #money supply.
Why use a private ledger ❓
▶️ Central banks and #governments must be able to mint and destroy #currencies.

The extraordinary returns of sector funds may lure you but remember they are also vulnerable to high losses.
So, it's always advisable to invest in a diversified portfolio, instead of taking concentrated bets on some sectors, especially in a volatile market.

First, some basics.
When #InterestRates rise📈, bond #prices fall📉. Why? Investors would rather buy new papers at a higher rate than old ones with lower yields.
#FloaterFunds are not impacted by interest rate movement. There’s a simple explanation.👇

As the #InterestRates rise, the yields on floating-rate bonds also increase.⬆️
So, #investors don’t need to sell them to buy new papers offering higher interest rates.
But the converse is true, too. So, when interest rates fall📉, #FloaterFunds become unattractive.

The strategy must offer an acceptable annualized return subject to constraints. Very low annualized return is undesirable but also high annualized return that comes at high risk is also undesirable and even more so.
Note that even if annualized return is low, the strategy may be acceptable due to the leveragability it offers. Often is better to leverage 2X a strategy with a smooth equity than use one w/o leverage but with volatile equity.
