More →BiggerZ Crypto Casino Launches 100% RTP Originals With 0% House Edge
<strong>[PRESS RELEASE – San Rafael de Escazú, Costa Rica, October 12th, 2026]</strong> Can a crypto casino offer big-multiplier potential without taking the traditional house cut? <a href="https://www.biggerz.com/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">>BiggerZ</a> has introduced 100% RTP Originals, combining a theoretical 0% house edge with transparent game rules and verifiable results. <strong>100% RTP Crypto Casino Games: How a 0% House Edge Works</strong> Return to player (RTP) describes the theoretical share of wagers returned over a very large number of rounds. A 99% RTP game implies a 1% house edge; 100% RTP means no theoretical house edge on eligible play. In practice, $1,000 in total wagering at 99% RTP implies $10 in expected loss; at 100%, it falls to zero. Individual sessions still vary: players can lose their stake or finish ahead. <strong>BiggerZ 100% RTP Originals: Mines, Dice, Plinko, Hi-Lo and Keno</strong> The <a href="https://www.biggerz.com/games/biggerz-touch" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">>BiggerZ Touch</a> lobby displays 100% RTP badges on selected Originals, including Mines, Dice, Plinko, Hi-Lo and Keno. Not every BiggerZ Touch title has the same return: the lobby also displays 99% RTP on certain games. 100% RTP applies up to a $50,000 qualifying wagering threshold, after which it shifts to 99%. <strong>Can You Win Big on 100% RTP Originals? Multipliers and Risk</strong> Games such as Plinko and Limbo keep their multiplier outcomes, where a less likely result pays several times the wager. A 0% house edge does not guarantee a win or make high multipliers more likely. It changes the operator’s theoretical margin, not the volatility of each round. <strong>100% RTP Originals vs High-RTP Slots: What Is the Difference?</strong> Third-party <a href="https://www.biggerz.com/games/slots" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">>online slots</a> keep their own published RTP, volatility and bonus mechanics. A slot at 96% RTP carries a 4% theoretical house edge, versus zero on an eligible 100% RTP Original. The comparison concerns long-run mathematics, not which game will deliver the next big payout. <strong>Provably Fair Crypto Casino Games: Verify BiggerZ Touch Results</strong> Eligible BiggerZ Touch outcomes include a provably fair layer, allowing players to check each result independently. BiggerZ also publishes Live RTP across 10-minute, one-hour and 24-hour windows, showing recent payout activity, which does not predict the next result. <strong>Where to Play 100% RTP Originals on BiggerZ Crypto Casino</strong> Players can open BiggerZ Touch, select a game showing a 100% RTP badge and check its rules, limits and verification tools before placing a wager. The offer does not apply to slots, live casino, sports bets or prediction markets.
Blur is shutting down its website, so why are NFT collectors cheering?
Blur’s planned website closure revived criticism of the royalty policies and token rewards that helped it overtake OpenSea during the NFT boom, but hurt creators. Nonfungible token marketplace Blur, which once overtook OpenSea as the largest NFT marketplace by trading volume, says it is shutting down its website next month — and some NFT collectors couldn’t be happier. Blur <a href="https://x.com/blur_io/status/2109735810857861203?s=20" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">>made</a> the announcement on X on Monday, its first post on the platform in more than a year. It said the frontend will shut down on Nov. 12, while its onchain marketplace will remain operational. Blend, a peer-to-peer perpetual NFT lending protocol, will also stop matching new loans. Blur said borrowers have until Nov. 12 to repay outstanding loans or allow them to default. It also promised a withdrawal interface after the shutdown. “Good riddance. You destroyed NFTs. Please shut down and never come back,” said NFT collector Cryptobscure in a reply to the post on X. “You may not have been able to complete your mission to destroy NFTs. But you acted with extreme determination and tried everything. Congratulations to us for surviving you,” NFT collector starfruit said in another post. The post renewed criticism of the strategy that helped Blur reach the top of the NFT charts in 2023: optional creator royalties and token rewards that encouraged traders to bid and flip NFTs. Its rise accelerated a <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/magazine/nft-creator-giant-swan-gothic-vr-dreamscapes-royalty-nightmare-opensea" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span>shift toward lower creator royalties</span></a>, with rival OpenSea later moving to <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/opensea-disable-on-chain-royalty-enforcement-tool" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span>optional creator fees</span></a> for new collections. Blur launched on Oct. 19, 2022, allowing sellers to customize royalty payments while offering larger prospective token rewards to those who paid higher creator royalties. But it entered a market where royalty protections were already weakening: competing marketplace Magic Eden had moved to optional royalties the previous week. By July of the following year, blockchain analytics platform Nansen reported that <a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/trader-baits-bot-july-nft-volume-drops-nifty-news" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span>effective creator royalty fees fell</span></a> to 0.6% in July 2023 from an average of 2.5% in 2022, attributing much of that gap to Blur’s growth, its minimum royalty policy and OpenSea lowering its own royalty requirements to compete. Blur didn’t disclose why it made the decision to shutter its frontend and wind down new lending activity on Blend. <em><strong>Related: </strong></em><a href="https://cointelegraph.com/news/magic-eden-nft-whitehat-vulnerability" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"><span><em><strong>Magic Eden scare puts 3,

According to the latest report from Barclays, DDR5 memory spot prices rose 8% month-on-month in October.
According to a latest report from Barclays, DDR5 memory spot prices rose 8% month-on-month in October and are up 20% over three months; the previous-generation DDR4 rose 4% month-on-month but gained 24% over three months.

Sulfur supply tightness intensifies, putting global food prices under pressure.
According to news from Bijie, tightening sulfur supply is intensifying pressure on global food prices. Shipping disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz, combined with the war in Iran, have sharply tightened global sulfur supply. Sulfur, a byproduct of the oil and gas industry, is a core raw material for producing sulfuric acid, phosphate fertilizers, and copper smelting. Its price has now soared to nearly $1,000 per ton, almost ten times higher than before the war. Mining companies with stronger financial resources have outbid lower-margin fertilizer producers in sulfur auctions, forcing fertilizer companies to cut production. Fertilizer giants such as Mosaic and Morocco's OCP say it is difficult to fully pass raw material costs on to farmers, and warn that global crop yields will be affected later, pushing up food prices. Argus analyst Raghav Jain said that in this bidding war for scarce resources, the lower-margin fertilizer industry is at a disadvantage. Institution Kpler warned that the problem of ships being stranded in the Strait of Hormuz is still worsening, and disruptions to the sulfur trade continue.
El Niño is expected to peak around December and persist into February next year with near 100% probability.
According to Coin World News, El Niño is expected to peak around December and is nearly 100% likely to persist until February next year. Recently, the World Meteorological Organization released its latest Global Seasonal Climate Update, forecasting that from October to December this year, sea surface temperatures in the Niño 3.4 region, a key monitoring area for El Niño, will be 3.7°C higher than usual, reaching a peak around December, with the phenomenon nearly 100% likely to continue until February 2027! El Niño disrupts atmospheric circulation and water vapor transport, and China's climate pattern will be profoundly affected. Rainfall will surge in some regions, while others will suffer drought, with both the north and south facing challenges! From October to December, the south should be on alert for concentrated rainfall and rapidly rising river levels; the north must also not relax and needs to closely monitor localized abnormal rainfall, with river channels, reservoirs, and embankments inspected in advance.
A new AI coding leaderboard tests code merging, and Opus 5.5 still fails about 40% of attempts, remaining to be verified.
Cointime news: A new AI programming leaderboard, FrontierCode 1.1, has launched to assess whether AI-generated code can meet the merge standards of open-source project maintainers. Claude Opus 5.5 ranked first with a composite score of 52.2%, but only 58% of its attempts passed the hard checks, meaning more than 40% fell short. The evaluation was developed by Cognition together with maintainers of 36 open-source projects, selecting 100 private tasks and requiring models to run three times under the same agent framework, with 9 of the tasks not successfully passed by any model. GPT-6.1 SOL scored 49.1%, only 3.1 percentage points lower than Opus 5.5, but its cost per task was $0.81, while the latter reached $10.15, a difference of more than 12 times. Xiaomi Mimo-V2.6-Pro scored 45%, with a cost per task of only $0.18. The 52.2% is a composite score, not the actual PR merge rate; the evaluation used automated checks and review by the GPT-6 Luna model, and was not submitted to maintainers for item-by-item review.
