Why social media payments and cryptocurrencies could be perfect partners

In late August, messaging giant LINE launched its own proprietary blockchain, the LINK chain, and its own cryptocurrency, the LINK token. While LINE is the first publicly traded company to have launched its own blockchain mainnet, it isn’t the first social media network to embrace cryptocurrencies. In this regard, it is joining the ranks of Kik, Kakao, Telegram, and (possibly) Facebook. All these companies have shown interest in adding cryptocurrency support on their networks, and some of them have already taken major steps. This all begs the question: At a time where cryptocurrencies are facing a major slump and there’s a lot of…

Many people (us included) expected Google to announce the new version of its wireless Pixel Buds at its hardware event. This didn’t happen. Instead we got the Google Pixel USB-C earbuds – a modified and wired version of its original pair. The new Pixel USB-C earbuds have generally same features as before. This includes the ability to trigger Google Assistant, pull up notifications, and use the real-time translate feature. As you’d expect, these features only work with Google’s Pixel phones. At first, I was baffled. Why wouldn’t Google release the Pixel Buds 2 and capitalize on the momentum of its Pixel 3…
