Game Jam from BNB Chain

BNB Chain has announced the launch of a 4-week gaming developer competition that will kick off with an in-person event from London. The Game Jam competition will serve to host events to help create new blockchain games.

Despite launching in London on January 24 with a networking event to bring together the participants, the competition will be fully-remote, according to the January 14 blog post from Christopher Duggan. The BNB Chain Game Jam Showdown will take place over the entire month of February, from Feb. 1 -28. The theme for the event will be “Social Games,” designed to be played with or against other human players.

“Anyone is welcome to contribute to a shared idea, and their work will be evaluated based on how well it’s developed,” Duggan writes. “Over the course of four weeks, BNB Chain will host a series of workshops on game design, art design, and blockchain development.”

We’ve seen tons of amazing game development over the past few years…but will you be our next gaming dev superstar at BNB Chain Game Jam? 🎮

Everyone worldwide is welcome to apply for our four-week Developer Showdown. Read ahead for further details! https://t.co/dvd51YIlxZ

The Game Jam in February will have prizes for successful participants like Most Valuable Builder (MVB) VI admission, supporting tweets from BNB Chain, and priority consideration for grants once the game is officially launched. The ultimate goal will be to see games launched on BNB Chain or its ZK rollup.

Gaming is shaping up to be a major catalyst in the 2023 crypto industry. The BNB Chain Game Jam will allow projects and developers healthy competition and networking to foster more blockchain gaming development.

Interested projects should check out the requirements in the blog and be ready to apply between January 20-31.

Binance VIP Traders Informed of $4B Settlement Back in September

Soumen Datta

December 1, 2023

The exclusive gathering took place at a luxurious Singapore night club in September, where attendees engaged with Binance executives and probed about the potential settlement.

Binance reportedly hosted an exclusive dinner for its most significant market makers in September. The gathering, held at a prestigious Singapore nightclub, was an intimate setting where select VIP traders gained insights into the impending $4 billion settlement with the U.S. Department of Justice, according to a recent report from Bloomberg.

The private dinner, organized for Binance's top traders, unfolded in the upscale 1880 members-only club. Attendees, consisting of market makers and traders, engaged in discussions with Binance executives about the company's legal challenges. The conversations revolved around the potential $4 billion fine, leaving attendees convinced that Binance could afford and would settle such a substantial amount.

‍

Attendees' Perspectives

Reports suggest that attendees, after breaking into smaller groups, sought clarification on Binance's legal troubles. They left the dinner with a heightened expectation of the $4 billion settlement, emphasizing the significant financial impact it would have on the exchange.

Former CEO Changpeng Zhao was notably absent from the gathering, with the then-head of regional markets, Richard Teng, representing the company.

In response to the reports, a Binance spokesperson disputed certain aspects of the event's depiction while refraining from specifying the inaccuracies, as per The Block. This discrepancy in accounts raises questions about the transparency surrounding Binance's legal challenges and its communication with stakeholders.

‍

Implications of the Settlement

Binance’s $4 billion settlement with U.S. authorities, including the Department of Justice, Department of the Treasury, and the Commodity Futures Trading Commission, marked one of the largest corporate settlements in U.S. history.

The resolution concluded a criminal investigation into allegations of money laundering and sanctions violations, settling many of Binance's legal troubles in the U.S. However, Binance.US and Changpeng Zhao still face a lawsuit filed by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
