Lido - the project that aims to render Ethereum staked in ETH2.0 liquid.
To run a node you'll need to stake a multiple of 32 Ether for quite a long time (possibly 2-3 years).

The PayPal crypto mass adoption news is kinda overrated. PayPal will only allow to buy, store and sell crypto. Crypto payments or even transfers between PayPal wallets will not be implemented yet.

Another project that aims to provide liquidity to Ether that will be staked in the Ethereum 2.0 nodes – Stkr by Ankr.
By staking Eth through Stkr you’ll get synthetic aETH that will be trading against ETH and ANRK on Uniswap. On top of that, the project will allow amounts smaller than 32ETH to be able to join staking by aggregating them.

⛩ Barnbridge's BOND token trading launched yesterday.
The price fluctuated in the range $ 93 - $ 170.
During the first week, in order to get 1 BOND token, you had to stake about $ 5k.
This corresponded to the yield of 2-3% per week.
On Monday the L2 pool has opened - the BOND-USDC pair with a yield of about 25% per week. However, as always in case of L2 pools, the risks are much higher here, as with BOND price fluctuations you are risking to incur Impermanent Loss (which can become very permanent 😬).
Also, don't forget the recent Harvest Contract exploit, when $ 25 million was drained from the smart-contract.

At the moment, there is a huge interest in crypto from wealthy clients and foundations in Asia. Fidelity Digital Asset Services partnered with Stack Funds to provide crypto custodian services for the wealthy.
“There is a critical need for platforms which have a deep understanding of what local and regional investors are looking for” that “has historically been lacking in the digital asset space,” Christopher Tyrer, head of Fidelity Digital Assets Europe, said in the statement.

IOHK lowers barriers to entry for smart contracts with Marlowe Playground
What makes Marlowe Playground special is the fact that the platform is aimed at those with little programming experience, allowing almost anyone to build and test financial smart contracts on the Cardano blockchain.
The company said that the rollout of Marlowe Playground’s Alpha version is the key part of the ongoing delivery of smart contract functionality on #Cardano, with the entire process set to take place within the next few months.
Parallel to the launch of Marlowe Playground, IOHK also announced the winners of its $10,000 hackathon.
The first prize went to Liqwid Finance, whose project focuses primarily on peer-to-peer lending, cutting out the “middleman” and opening up financial services such as credit, loans, and savings to everyone.
Charles Hoskinson, the CEO of IOHK, said that the company was “floored” by both the number and the quality of the projects proposed during the hackathon.

Ubisoft-backed Blockchain RPG Lets Players ‘Fork’ the Game 👾
#Blockchain driven RPG Nine Chronicles announced its early release on the mainnet last week
“A lot of people have been frustrated because these virtual worlds were created by corporations”
says Kijun Seo, a founder of Planetarium 👨💻
“It’s created to serve them and to create as much profit as possible.”
Unlike modding, #Forking relies on a pre-existing network of nodes that run the game. Planetarium represents just one node, one Christmas light in a tangled bunch. If the creators drop out, the game can continue and evolve. It’s the critical mass of users that give it strength, not the parent company.

Bitcoin just had its biggest mining difficulty drop since 2011 📉
#Bitcoin (BTC) saw its biggest negative difficulty adjustment in almost 10 years on Nov. 3 as the network flawlessly takes care of itself.
Such a reduction incentivizes more mining participants to compete for block subsidy rewards, with the result that the difficulty then begins to rise again 📈
For users, the downward adjustment will reduce #fees and decrease block times, along with reducing the size of unmined transactions in Bitcoin’s mempool 💰

South Korean financial watchdog will ban privacy coins from exchanges
Virtual asset service providers in the country will not be allowed to handle “dark coins” 🇰🇷
The financial watchdog’s amendments to the Special Payment Act are expected to be enforced starting in March 2021. The crypto bill calls for existing exchanges to employ sufficient Know Your Customer, or KYC, and anti-money laundering, or AML, policies.
Many crypto exchanges in the country already do not list privacy coins due to existing international regulations.
