Recent events in crypto have shown the importance of scrutinizing the fundamentals behind blockchain projects. However, getting clean data about users, transactions, pools, and more is impossible on most chains.  
With its robust, easy-to-use charting platform, Footprint Analytics plans to make cross-chain analytics accessible to everyone, no matter which chain they want to explore. 
The Singapore-based firm announces it has closed a $2.65 million Seed Plus round led by Matrix Partners and joined by Redpoint, A&amp;T Capital, Hash Global, Waterdrip Capital, Lancer Capital, and Dual Epoch Capital, bringing its total fundraising to $4.15 million after a previous round led by IOSG.   
“Throughout crypto market cycles, we are still firmly optimistic about the long-term market and consistently looking for opportunities in the ecosystem which bring intrinsic value. As a particularly important infrastructure, analytical tools have strong demand from on-chain users and the ability to succeed beyond cycles,” said Matrix. 
“Footprint Analytics, as an outstanding on-chain analytical tool, is a user-friendly UGC tool that requires no coding skills. We believe that Footprint could become one of the most significant players in on-chain analysis in the future.”
While most competitors only provide single-chain analysis and unsemantic data, Footprint Analytics covers 17 chains, growing by 300% since the last round of funding in January. The number of transactions covered has also expanded from 1 billion to 95 billion in only 4 months. Footprint Analytics now covers 100K tokens’ prices, 500 DeFi protocols, and over 1000 GameFi projects.
Whereas some solutions with some cross-chain functionality require specialized coding skills to implement this capability, Footprint Analytics allows non-tech users to turn on-chain data into dashboards with a simple, drag-and-drop interface. 
For developers, the platform supports Python as well as SQL and is relatively easy to adapt for custom, purpose-built analytics apps. 
“For blockchain developers, Footprint Analytics is an indispensable tool for seeing all aspects of operational data, building trust among their community, and monitoring the competitive landscape,” said Wade Deng, VP of Engineering of Footprint. “For investors, now is the best time to dive deep into projects’ fundamentals with a lull in the market and create a solid, data-informed thesis about where to invest before the next reversal upward.”
Despite macro headwinds, the blockchain industry still saw many new projects in Q2, mainly in GameFi. Footprint Analytics is the first tool to provide in-depth analysis in the GameFi space, helping it double its users in 2 months as the sector grows in adoption. 
As its platform sees more use, Footprint Analytics aims to become the go-to open-source community for blockchain analysis, where the community can contribute and share their data parsing and metrics.

GameSto GMEp has now launched a new digital asset wallet ahead of its NFT marketplace launch in the second quarter of the fiscal year. It can store cryptocurrencies and NFTs and uh, what exactly are we doing here? Here’s the official announcement from today:
“GameStop Corp. today announced it has launched its digital asset wallet to allow gamers and others to store, send, receive and use cryptocurrencies and non-fungible tokens (“NFTs”) across decentralized apps without having to leave their web browsers. The GameStop Wallet is a self-custodial Ether ETHeum wallet. The wallet extension, which can be downloaded from the Chrome Web Store, will also enable transactions on GameStop’s NFT marketplace, which is expected to launch in the second quarter of the Company’s fiscal year.”
GameStop is looking for a way to turn around recent losses and survive in an increasingly digital era, where the market is now pushing 70-75% digital sales, depending on the title, and it’s only going up every year. And since GameStop can’t even stock physical next-gen consoles with all the shortages, they are doing some…interesting things, like this big bet on crypto and NFTs, even as the market has dramatically contracted in recent months.
NFT sales are down 92% since they peaked in late 2021, and have increasingly made headlines with large scale thefts and scams that have seen consumers lose their “investments.” But because many companies only jumped on this trend once it peaked, and it takes a while to set something like this up, we are now seeing things like…GameStop setting up an NFT marketplace later this summer, when it’s not clear what the market might be for such a thing if interest keeps declining at this pace.

There’s also the central question of whether GameStop’s core audience overlaps with the idea of NFT collection at all. Gamers, at least most of those that are into traditional console and PC games, have roundly rejected the concept of NFTs, scaring away most major publishers like EA and Ubisoft from implementation. I suppose maybe the idea here is to lean into GameStop’s image as a meme stock, as that crowd, the type that pumped up GME stock, may be more prone to speculative assets like NFTs, which is perhaps how this idea was born.
It's just hard to look at this as something that’s going to do anything significant to help GameStop’s bottom line, and it makes them look even more behind the times than usual, attempting to capitalize on a flash-in-the-pan trend that is already watching its bottom fall out in many places. It’s also not yet clear what exactly these NFTs will be. Given that it’s GameStop, you could imagine a world where they would sell…gaming NFTs based on your favorite characters. Collect Master Chief, Kratos and Mario for your GameStop wallet! Except no, there’s absolutely no way that those IP holders would lease out their icons for such a project, and any game company that does try to issue NFTs for something like this is going to get roasted by fans, the way we’ve seen happen dozens of times already any time NFTs are brought up in the core gaming industry.
We’ll see what happens if this NFT marketplace ever does actually make it to fruition in a few months here, but it’s hard to be even a little bit optimistic about the potential success of this.

Cryptocurrency has surpassed real estate in popularity, according to the bank.
JPMorgan believes that $38,000 is a reasonable price for bitcoin.
In JPMorgan’s opinion, bitcoin’s true worth is 28 percent greater than it is now valued. Also, it is a favored alternative asset class, according to the bank. Even though the cryptocurrency market has had a rough week, the bank thinks considerable gains will be in the near future. As one of its favorite “alternative assets,” cryptocurrency has surpassed real estate in popularity, according to the bank.
Further Space To Rise
JPMorgan believes that $38,000 is a reasonable price for bitcoin. It is presently trading at a far lower price than the bank expects it to be worth. Due to rising inflation and interest rates, the Ukraine crisis, and a slump in China, investors are fleeing riskier assets such as cryptocurrencies.
In November, the overall market value of crypto was $3 trillion. In May, the total market value of crypto was $1.3 trillion. As a consequence of the sell-off, according to JPMorgan, cryptocurrencies have suffered more than other alternative assets like equities, debt funds, or real estate. As said, this suggests that cryptos have further space to rise.
The cryptocurrency industry has been rocked by the devastating crash of TerraUSD and the whole Terra ecosystem. In the wake of the financial crisis, small and medium-sized investors were the biggest losers. They watched helplessly as all of their money vanished. The decline in LUNA, according to JPMorgan, had little effect on venture capital financing for cryptocurrencies, though. Overweight alternative investments are now underweight, which indicates that the bank has less interest in them.
