Welcome to the September 2022 Recap Newsletter! We hope you are all hanging in there through this bear market.
Historically stock & crypto markets struggle in September, but October through December is usually a bullish time for markets, known as the Halloween effect.
On the bright side, we’ve got some exciting updates coming to Ember soon!
For a more detailed look into all of our portfolios, check out our monthly one-sheet here.
We're launching a Trading Tournament in Discord where investors can win thousands of dollars in prizes! Join our Discord here for updates.
Tired of paying high fees on Coinbase to trade altcoins? Well, single-asset trading is coming soon to Ember! 😉
Long-awaited recurring deposits to fund your Ember Wallet & portfolios will be rolling out this week!
The team is working to refresh the design of the app so it's cleaner & more fun to use every day.
Big improvements to mining are coming! Stay tuned for updates 👀
We have 2 new portfolios that are launching soon! One portfolio focused on the coins generating the most revenue for their DAOs, and the other focused on Layer 1 & 2 blockchains!
Why is my ETH 2.0 Staking APY increasing?
On ETH 1.0, the protocol used the consensus mechanism known as Proof-of-Work (same as Bitcoin's), which required miners with big Nvidia GPU operations to mine each block to validate transactions & secure the network. Miners would get a block reward for doing this as an incentive.
During the Merge, Ethereum switched to a new consensus mechanism, known as Proof-of-Stake. Now holders of Ethereum are the ones who validate the network by "staking" their ETH. No more energy-intensive computers are needed, and all the rewards the old miners were getting, now go to the stakers!
That's all we've got!
Remember to join us on Discord so you don't miss our first-ever Ember Crypto Tournament! Fun stuff.
Thank you for reading!
Cheers,
