Backpack founder Armani Ferrante says the company’s staff and investors won’t get an allocation at its upcoming token launch to avoid insiders “dumping on retail.”

Backpack, a crypto exchange founded by former employees of FTX, says it will launch a 1-billion-supply token in the future, with its distribution schedule tied to its goal of going public in the US.

Backpack posted to X on Monday that its token launch will begin with 25% of the intended supply, or 250 million tokens, to become available on a yet-to-be-disclosed launch date.

Another 37.5% of the total supply, or 375 million pre-IPO tokens, will be made available “upon achievement of key milestones,” which Ferrante said would include opening in a new region or launching a new product.

Norwegian Krone hobbles ahead of uncertain Norges Bank decision

The post Norwegian Krone hobbles ahead of uncertain Norges Bank decision appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. The Norwegian Krone (NOK) remains in the spotlight ahead of the decisive Norges Bank interest rate decision scheduled for Thursday at 08:00 GMT. The EUR/NOK pair is trading around 11.60, up 0.3% on the day, after hitting 11.54 last week, its lowest level in three months.

However, other institutions still consider easing likely. ING believes that “despite sticky inflation and a solid outlook, we are still leaning towards a cut to 4.0%”, stresses FX strategist Francesco Pesole. TD Securities even speaks of a “hawkish cut”, underlining the likelihood of the decision being accompanied by a restrictive outlook to limit the impact on the NOK. The Oil…
