Crypto.com Firing 12% of Workforce

From Kris Marszalek's X account, so they are pivoting to "enterprise-wide AI", people who don't fit in is getting fired.

Meanwhile their ai.com is still in limbo as of 20 Mar 2026, not sure why they paid so much for a domain name and delivered a lame-looking site that only enables the user to login and does nothing else.

Not sure how their business is doing, probably still doing well thanks to revenues from their exchange and app, but their Cronos chain is struggling, transactions getting lower and lower, their zkEVM chain is as good as dead. They still have another POS chain where its only purpose is to print more CRO, can't really understand why they decided to re-print 70 billion CRO. Overall can't really see where they are trying to go with this setup.

Personally I still think their exchange and app is solid, very smooth to use, especially the app, I get free diamonds to get free CRO which I just dump for USDC, other than that, there's really nothing standing out, whatever they are offering, there is simply somebody else offering a way better choice.

Coinbase for spot/perp, they have low perp fees, great for perp traders, and if you have an open perp position, you earn USDC on your perp balance, good for helping to soften the funding fees.

Base for defi, or any of the other EVM L2s, even the OG Ethereum is pretty good to use these days since their fees dropped a lot.

Hyperliquid for spot/perp, they have low spot fees, good for long-term hodlers.

Polymarket for predictions, this is easily the number 1 prediction market in the world right now.

Or simply use MetaMask wallet for everything defi, they did a fantastic job on the revamp, you can even buy/sell/hold native BTC, trade on Hyperliquid, trade on Polymarket and their social login is a huge step forward.

I already given up on CRO, now I also given up on Crypto.com, I'm now using the way better choices instead.

It looks like Crypto.com is trying to lead in everything at once, end up excelling in nothing, they are just endlessly printing more CRO, as of writing, CRO is trading at $0.075305, good thing I sold long ago, if not really cry and have to hold this shit for who knows how many more years, seriously I rather hold BTC or ETH to the grave than hold CRO, ok but to be fair I didn't lose money with CRO but its performance is just abysmal, it's like a headless chicken, you never know when it will start walking or when it will simply drop dead.

You should refer to here -  https://www.rom.gov.sg/reg_info/rom_marriage.asp Please spend some time to go through and understand the information on that section (legal provision, other information, filing of notice, solemnization and etc), if your still not sure, feel free to drop a comment here or you can use their FAQ . The ROM website did a really good job of putting together the information that you need in a well-organized manner. I've done it once and I think the guide is very easy to follow. The only hiccup I've had with my marriage is during the  Appointment for verification & Statutory Declaration where both of us were required to read out a wall of text and my wife had difficulty getting past the first few lines and the counter guy got fed up and told my wife to stop. Definitely my oversight as I didn't arrange for an interpreter beforehand but luckily, there was a licensed interpreter at the scene and we managed to get her to do the interpretation ...
