CHF Soars on SNB Hike

A surprise hike by the SNB today as the bank responds to rising inflation. This marks the first hike in 15 years from the central bank and not only that, the SNB opted for a 50bps rate hike, with the policy rate rising to -0.25% from -0.75%, going against expectations for the bank to leave monetary policy unchanged. Additionally, the SNB states that further increases in the policy rate cannot be ruled out to stabilise inflation.

    • I've been exploring the world of play-to-earn gaming recently, looking for something that's not just about endless grinding but actually offers a fun and rewarding experience. OGC really stood out to me because it combines gaming with a sense of community in a unique way. OGC isn't just a game; it's a platform where you can play, earn, and even help shape its future. You're not just a player; you're part of a community with a voice. The idea of earning crypto while playing games is exciting, but what makes OGC special is its focus on community involvement. Your feedback can directly influence the development of the game, which is a big deal. I've also heard that the OGC token is available for pre-market trading on Bitget. While I'm still getting to know the platform and its features, it's definitely something to keep an eye on. Has anyone else tried OGC? What has your experience been like? I'd love to hear your thoughts and any tips you might have.
