Donald Trump's NFT collection
Now imagine going to a bazaar where Trump is selling cheesy🧀 NFTs, all for $99. Everything is true except the bazaar. This time there's a website. He said it would be a perfect Christmas gift, and as much as it hurts, all those "like baseball cards" are sold out. 45,000 NFTs were minted on Polygon. Yes, baseball, Trump is a superman in tights... When I saw these NFTs, they reminded me of Chocolate Frogs 🐸 from Harry Potter. Imagine how funny it would be if Trump didn't stay on NFTs and said, "Did you think I would stay with you all day?"
UN sends USDC to Ukrainians
The United Nations has partnered with Circle USDC issuer - Stellar Blockchain, and U.S.-based P2P payment service Money Gram to provide financial aid to Ukrainians. The power of blockchain🔝! Those who're unbanked and in need can now get instant help. However, only those close to Money Gram locations📍can withdraw money from cryptocurrencies. At least the companies assure they'll help and that the process is simple. So far, Stellar has helped 33 of the 100 people they plan to reach by the end of the year.
Crypto.com licenses in Brazil
Crypto.com becomes the first licensed payment institution in Brazil! I wonder if it has something to do with the FIFA 2022 ⚽️ Crypto.com banners hanging everywhere. Crypto.com just grabbed a big piece of the growing Latin American market. With the license, the crypto exchange will continue to offer fiat wallet services, as the Crypto.com Visa 💳 is available in the country since 2021. As a reminder, the first company to receive this license was CloudWalk, a Brazilian payments company. As for crypto exchanges, Crypto.com is the only one.
Coinbase releases ERC-20 recovery tool
Who sent unsupported ERC-20 tokens to Coinbase? Don't worry because Coinbase has decided to help you get back up to 4000 tokens that aren't yet listed on the crypto exchange. For example, you can reclaim UNI, AAVE, and LINK 🙌. There's a $5 recovery fee for amounts over $100, in addition to a separate network fee that applies to all recoveries. Eh yes, fees. But agree, it's better than nothing 🤝.
Amber Group raises $300m
In seriec C led by Fenbushi Capital. Remember that Fenbushi's CEO lost millions 😱 in a phishing attack and said venture funds were not affected? Amber's funding is solid proof. Amber was affected by the FTX 😡 bankruptcy and lost about 10% of funds. Although Amber said this wasn't a big deal, the trading company's position still needed to be rebalanced. In its final financing in 2021, again led by Fenbushi, Amber was valued at $3 billion. It lost a little this year, although the value wasn't disclosed.
Conclusion: As the meme says, we used to celebrate a 5% pump after a 50% dip. But not today. The market is all red. By the way, follow us on Twitter. Really funny pictures. You can also find a lot of Trump's NFT collection jokes on Twitter. Let's end this working week laughing. Have a great weekend!
See you after the weekends, folks! Thanks for being with us.Brought to you by Maksym, Yana, and Aleksandar :)

What is Crypto Ping Pong digest?
TC lads here are working quite hard and from time to time we gotta chill. Recently, we got ourselves a ping pong table to complete our lazy-bag-stuffed chill zone. As you all know our main hobby is Crypto, so even while we play we don’t really shut up about it. Ever.
So memes, leaks, gossips naturally come about – we collect them and share them with you in this interstellar space on our site we like to call Crypto Ping Pong digest.
