Altseason was trending on social media after several altcoins saw double digit price gains. Most notable in the top 50 coins on CoinMarketCap was VeChain which exploded by some 30% at a certain point on Sunday and continued that trend on Monday morning.
The VeChain family on social media was ecstatic.

Middle east expansion
Meanwhile Charles Hoskinson, CEO of Cardano, did a one hour AMA (ask me anything) from Dubai, where he was for the Binance Blockchain Week 2022. The platform of CEO Changpeng Zhao is still the biggest in the world and has recently obtained a license to operate from Dubai, setting it as a base to expand in the Middle East.
Waves and crypto for landlords
Unfortunaly for the Binance event, it comes as more and more real estate agents in Dubai are reporting one of the biggest bull markets ever as Russian investors snap up apartments by either buying them outright, or paying a year’s rent in advance. Crypto is being used for payment.

Speaking to The Guardian, Alan Pinto, a leasing consultant at Espace Real Estate in Dubai Marina, explained that
It’s been unbelievable.
A radical amount of Russian investors are purchasing units. Even tenants; we’ve had a huge amount of calls. They transfer their funds via crypto. They have an intermediary who will do that for them and then the cash is passed to the landlords.
According to US business media like FX street, rich Russians convert their rubles mostly into Waves, which has seen a 240% monthly gain.
