The computer hardware companytweetedon Saturday, “Join us and our friends at @OfficialPCMR in supporting folding@home and donating unused GPU computing power to fight against COVID-19!” The folding@home app has a number of graphics processing unit (GPU) specific projects, which gaming PC users can contribute by just downloading the application. PCMR, a community of PC enthusiasts, describes the concept behind the app, “You can install a small program on your computer, and it downloads a small amount of data that it analyses, then returning the results to the Stanford researchers.” The website claims that the whole process only takes 3 minutes.

In an update regarding COVID-19 and their efforts to fight the disease, folding@home announced, “In the coming days, we hope to take advantage of some of the new structural biology and biochemical data that is being rapidly released by researchers around the world who are working to understand these viruses and strategies for defeating them.” Price Action Nvidia shares traded 11.34% higher at $240.84 on Friday in the regular session.

The top cryptocurrency by market value picked up bids near $5,850 during the Asian trading hours and rose around $500 to $6,344 at 07:14 UTC. At press time, the global average price, as calculated by CoinDesk’sBitcoin Price Index, was at $6,290, up 7 percent on the day. Bitcoin found takers even though stocks in Asiadippedalongside losses in S&P 500 futures, possibly over renewed fears of a prolonged coronavirus-led lockdown across the globe. Related:Bitcoin’s Recent Recovery Won’t Salvage a Terrible Month for Prices President Donald Trump abruptlyabandonedhis talk of life returning to normal in some parts of the U.S. by Easter and instead extended social distancing rules through April.

Related:Crypto Markets Can Never Close, and That’s a Good Thing However, it’s still too early to say the cryptocurrency has now decoupled from equities. After all, the 90-day correlation between bitcoin’s price and the S&P 500 rose to 0.52 earlier this month, the highest level on record,according toArcane Research. Further, with the virus outbreak showing no signs of slowing down, investors may continue to hold cash (U.S. dollar). Analysts at Goldman Sachs believe the economic fallout in the westhas only just begun. Meanwhile, central banks and governments across the globe look to have run out of ammo, having already fired their big “bazookas” over the last couple of weeks. As a result, another liquidity crisis, similar to the one seen a few weeks ago, cannot be ruled out. In that case, bitcoin could again feel the pull of gravity alongside the sell-off in stocks. Some analysts, however, think bitcoin could soon decouple from the traditional markets as macro traders and institutions have already cashed out their cryptocurrency stashes. “We think the correlation to traditional markets will ease now that most cross-asset-class investors have sold out,” Richard Galvin, CEO of Digital Assets Capital Management,tweetedMonday. Derivatives markets data does show institutions have likely exited the market. Open interest in bitcoin futures listed across the globe hasdeclined bynearly 50 percent from highs above $5 billion seen in mid-February. Galvin added that the “highly stimulatory and potentially inflationary central bank and sovereign response” could only bode well for bitcoin. Meanwhile, Jehan Chu, co-founder and managing partner at Kenetic Capital, said the Federal Reserve’s “All You Can Eat” quantitative easing plan should prevent future flight from bitcoin as we saw earlier this month.

Meanwhile, the U.S. Congress approved a $2 trillion fiscal stimulus plan on Friday that was promptly signed into law by President Trump. “Barring any further cataclysmic shocks to the economy, I expect BTC will rally faster and harder than public markets,” Chu told CoinDesk. The immediate bias remains bearish despite the price bounce from $5,850 to $6,350, as a rising channel breakdown confirmed on Friday is still valid, as seen below. A convincing move above the horizontal resistance line of $6,342 is needed to invalidate the breakdown and open the doors for a re-test of resistance at $7,000. Bitcoin failed to close above the former support-turned-resistance of $6,425 last week. The bull’s failure at the key hurdle, coupled with consecutive weekly candles with long upper shadows pointing to “sell on rise” mentality, indicates the path of least resistance is to the downside. Bitcoin would likely slide back toward $5,000 if the buyers fail to defend the Asian session low of $5,850. The outlook as per the weekly chart would turn bullish if and when prices find acceptance above $7,000. Disclosure:The author holds no cryptocurrency at the time of writing. • Mt.

Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin rose by 0.50% on Sunday. Following on from a 0.15% gain on Saturday, Bitcoin ended the week up by 2.04% to $6,919.0. A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning intraday low $6,797.6 before making a move. Finding support at the first major support level at $6,790.4 Bitcoin rallied to a late afternoon intraday high $7,192.5. Bitcoin broke through the first major resistance level at $6,968.2 and second major resistance level at $7,051.9 before hitting reverse. A late sell-off saw Bitcoin fall back through the major resistance levels to limit the gain on the day. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from $10,000 levels to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was another mixed day on Sunday. Bitcoin Cash ABC (-0.07%), EOS (-0.28%), Litecoin (-1.31%), Monero’s XMR (-0.26%), and Stellar’s Lumen (-1.18%) saw red on the day. Binance Coin (+3.40%), Bitcoin Cash SV (+2.59%), Cardano’s ADA (+0.18%) Ethereum (+0.12%), Ripple’s XRP (+0.72%) and Tezos (+1.52%) joined Bitcoin in the green. While it was a mixed end to the week, it was a bullish week for the crypto majors. Bitcoin Cash SV (+10.00%), Ethereum (+11.26%), Stellar’s Lumen (+12.68%), and Tezos (+20.38%) led the way. Binance Coin (+4.31%), Cardano’s ADA (+4.93%), EOS (+6.23%), and Ripple’s XRP (+5.79%) also found strong support. Bitcoin Cash ABC (+0.62%), Monero’s XMR (+0.98%), and Tron’s TRX (+0.37%) trailed the pack in the week. Through the week, the crypto total market cap rose from a Monday low $190.55bn to a Tuesday high $211.57bn. A choppy 2 nd half of the week, however, saw the total market cap fall back to sub-$200bn levels before. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $192.36bn. Story continues Bitcoin’s dominance eased back from 65% levels seen on Monday. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 64.1%. 24-hour trading volumes recovered from sub-$100bn levels to hit $171bn levels on Tuesday before easing back. At the time of writing, 24-hr volumes stood at $128.20bn. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 3.06% to $6,707.1. A particularly bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin slide from an early morning high $6,917.0 before to a low $6,571.1. Steering clear of the major resistance levels, Bitcoin fell through the first major support level at $6,746.9. The second major support level at $6,574.8 limited the downside early on. Elsewhere, it was also a bearish start to the day. EOS and Stellar’s Lumen led the way down early on, with losses of 3.90% and 4.21% respectively. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through to $6,970 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $7,141.80 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break back through the first major support level at $6,746.9 to hit $6,900 levels. Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, resistance at $7,000 would likely leave Bitcoin short of the first major resistance level and Sunday’s high $7,192.5. In the event of a crypto rebound, resistance at $7,200 would likely limit any upside. Failure to move back through to $6,970 levels could see Bitcoin fall deeper into the red. A fall back through the second major support level at $6,574.8 would bring the 23.6% FIB of $6,300 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should continue to steer of sub-$6,500 support levels.

The app allows users to minemonero(XMR) and can earn users up to $0.0038 in the crypto on average daily. The electricity used to carry out the mining tasks would come to less than half the income from mining, according to the report.\nThat amount of income isn’t going to repay the cost of the phone in any reasonable timespan and, in fact, would take around 13,680 days (roughly 37 years) to earn the value of one unit of XMR at thecurrent priceof $52 apiece.\nRelated:Crypto Long & Short: DeFi and Traditional Finance Are Forming an Unlikely Friendship\nSee also:Bitcoin Halving: How Miners are Preparing for Lower Block Rewards\nHowever, HTC says the effort is aimed at bringing further decentralization to crypto mining, a process that sees computers used to secure the blockchain and process transactions in return for block rewards.\nMining of cryptocurrency has progressed from using computer processors to graphics cards and even dedicated processors called ASICS for some blockchains as participants sought to maintain returns amid rising network difficulty. As such the ability to mine on a mobile phone is at least novel and may increase adoption and education around cryptocurrency.\nHTC said the DeMiner app – expected to launch sometime in Q2 2020 – used on the Exodus is roughly equivalent to a desktop computer in terms of mining (or hashing) power, but brings far lower energy demands.\nRelated:Bitcoin’s Future: Exactly How a Coming Upgrade Could Improve Privacy and Scaling\n“The question is not should we use an ASIC or a CPU.

However, a plant in Dresden, New York thinks it has a solution: use that surplus to generate some digital cash. Greenidge Generation has revealed that it's using "behind-the-meter" energy at the facility to mine Bitcoin , with 7,000 mining systems producing up to 5.5BTC (about $45,000 as of this writing) per day. The facility and its mining partner, Atlas Holdings, characterized this as a win for both the plant and the community. In theory, this helps the facility turn a profit while creating more jobs and tax revenue. It's a logical fit, at least, as cryptocurrency mining often depends on large amounts of energy -- something that won't be a problem at a power plant. There are limitations. This mining may work for natural gas, but it might not be a great idea for renewable energy systems where it'd make more sense to store the energy for later. Long-term viability might be an issue, too. Greenidge's mining may be profitable right now, but it could lose much of its allure as demand at the plant grows. There's also the nature of Bitcoin itself to consider. It gets more and more difficult to generate bitcoin over time, so the windfalls you see today might not be possible in the years ahead. If this proves successful enough, though, you might see other natural gas plants follow suit. View comments... - Reddit Posts (Sample): no_data...

As of Tuesday morning it is trading firmly in the middle of that range, with price being lured back towards the $6,800 mark. Bitcoin continues to present a number of bullish cases on both lower and higher time frames, the first of which would be a breakout above the $7,400 level of resistance before next month’s halving event. The next test would be taking out the daily 200 moving average, which is currently in confluence with the $8,080 level. However, from a higher time frame perspective Bitcoin needs to avoid closing daily and weekly candles beneath the diagonal trendline dating back to 2017, which is now at around $4,500. A break below this level would indicate a transition into a bearish phase in the market, with downside targets continuing to emerge at $1,800 and $1,150. Another point of resistance to the upside is at around $9,400 as it connects to the diagonal trendline dating back to December 2017, which has not been broken for more than two years. Regardless of whether the halving has the desired impact on price action remains to be seen, but from a short-term perspective the trend is absolutely bullish with Bitcoin being 71.68% up since the turn of the year despite economic instability driven by the Coronavirus.

Havens including Treasuries and gold surged. In a dramatic day across markets, these were some of the standout moves: All three main U.S. stock benchmarks slumped more than 3%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P erased all of their gains for the year. All 11 sectors of the S&P closed in the red.The FANG cohort of megacap tech shares that led the year’s rally plunged more than 4%. AMD Corp. led losses in chipmakers exposed to China, at one point sinking more than 10%. High-flyers Virgin Galactic and Tesla each fell more than 5%. Alpha Pro Tech, maker of protective clothing and masks, surged more than 25%.The Stoxx Europe 600 Index slid 3.8% on trading volumes well above average for the largest drop since 2016 as investors fled travel and luxury-goods shares. A gauge of credit risk on the region’s high-yield companies jumped.The yield on 10-year Treasuries approached the 2016 record low.South Korea’s benchmark dropped 3.9%, leading declines across Asia, though Japan’s markets were shut for a holiday.Spot gold approached $1,700, while Brent crude oil tumbled about 5%. The risk-off mood hardened as the epidemic spread to more than 30 countries, with South Korea reporting a jump in infections and Italy locking down an area of 50,000 people near Milan. Finance chiefs and central bankers from the largest economies warned this weekend that they saw the virus bringing downside risks to global growth. “Stock markets around the world are beginning to price in what bond markets have been telling us for weeks -- that global growth is likely to be impacted in a meaningful way due to fears of the coronavirus,” said Chris Zaccarelli, chief investment officer for Independent Advisor Alliance. Governments and companies are curbing travel and trade in an attempt to contain a novel pathogen that can be transmitted by people without symptoms. Today’s market moves follow on last week’s surge into havens after fresh warnings by companies over the potential impact of the virus on business and global supply chains. Adding to the anxiety Monday was China announcing an easing of the quarantine of Wuhan, only to retract the statement hours later. “Markets hate uncertainty and the coronavirus represents the most uncertain macro risk markets have faced in years,” said Alec Young, managing director of global markets research at FEST Russell. “Investors are also acutely aware that many misjudged the economic severity of the virus early on, making them more open to entertaining worst-case scenarios now.” Story continues Elsewhere, Italian bonds dropped on concern that the spread of the coronavirus may push the economy into a recession. The Australian dollar weakened to an 11-year low and the offshore yuan held most of last week’s decline. Bitcoin slumped. These are some key events coming up: Earnings keep rolling in from companies including: Home Depot Inc. on Tuesday; Peugeot SA on Wednesday; Baidu Inc., Best Buy Co. Inc., Occidental Petroleum Corp. and Dell Technologies Inc. on Thursday; and London Stock Exchange Group Plc on Friday.The Democratic presidential debate in South Carolina is on Tuesday.The Bank of Korea announces its policy decision on Thursday, with risks to the outlook growing amid a surge in coronavirus cases.U.S. jobless claims, GDP and durable goods data are out Thursday.Japan industrial production, jobs, and retail sales figures are due on Friday.

Announced Tuesday, the Colorado-based firm will send a portion of its S17 bitcoin mining machines from its facilities in Oklahoma City to Coinmint’s power plant in upstate New York. The move came two months after Riot purchased 1,060 Bitmain S17 Pro Antminers for that facility. The addition is part of Riot’s recent expansion in bitcoin mining. Related: Bitmain Partially Refunds Bitcoin Miner Buyers After Price Cuts The firm bought 4,000 miners from Bitmain with $6.35 million in December and installed 3,000 miners in the following month. The firm expects to boost its computing capacity by 240 percent with the latest addition. “Riot believes the hosting arrangement can positively impact its power costs, the Oklahoma City facility’s heat and environmental operating issues, and provide a path to diversify its mining operations,” Riot said in a statement . According to the contract, Coinmint’s Massena, N.Y., facility will be responsible for initial operational, security and reporting controls testing and verification. As one of the largest crypto data centers in the U.S., Coinmint claims to have 435 megawatts of transformer capacity. It was converted to a data center from an aluminum smelter in 2016. The plant can generate excess power in part due to the abundant hydroelectric and wind generation in the area. Its management experiences in wholesale electricity markets is another economic advantage for Coinmint to operate mining machines, according to Riot. Related: New York Power Plant Sells 30% of Its Bitcoin Mining Hashrate to Institutional Buyers Riot has also assessed how COVID-19’s impact on its relocation plan and concluded that the novel coronavirus’ risks are reasonably mitigated due to the “plug and play ” infrastructure of Coinmint’s facilities. “To date, the impact has remained minimal,” Riot said. Story continues Riot’s rearrangement with its mining facilities could also be part of its shift from crypto trading to bitcoin mining businesses. The firm has been on the lookout for potential buyers for its crypto trading platform RiotX since February.

The biggest cryptocurrency by market value, often touted as “digital gold,” is trading near $6,900 at press time, representing a marginal gain on the day, according to CoinDesk’sBitcoin Price Index. Prices jumped from $6,800 to $6,930 early Tuesday after better-than-expected China trade data for March pushed S&P 500 futures higher. The upward momentum, however, has stalled even though the futures are holding gains.

The yellow metal is now up 9 percent on a month-to-date basis, while bitcoin is lagging with just a 5 percent gain. Gold seems to be benefiting from the U.S. Federal Reserve’s recent monetary stimulus, which has pushed its balance sheetabove$6 trillion for the first time on record.

Related:Options Market Signals Doubt Bitcoin Price Will Rise After Halving Further, uncertainty around the short- and long-term economic impacts of the virus pandemic is forcing investors to pour money into safe havens like gold and U.S. Treasurys,according tothe World Gold Council. Most crypto market analystsare convincedthe factors, which are pushing gold higher, are bullish for bitcoin. Essentially, the cryptocurrency is expected to take up the role of a safe-haven asset. However, Frank Shostak, an associated scholar of the Mises Institute and chief economist and director of AAS Economics, thinks investors would prefer holding cash or investing in treasuries. “I am skeptical that in the time of a severe recession, people would want to deal with an electronic type of entity,” said Shostak. It’s worth noting that bitcoin has moved pretty much in line with the equity markets, or risk assets, right from the beginning of the coronavirus crisis. That makes it vulnerable to another round of selling in equities, which may be seen as a raft of U.S. corporate earnings reports due this week is expected to highlight the coronavirus-led downturn in the world’s largest economy. Short-term technical charts indicate the cryptocurrency islacking a clear directional bias. Bitcoin created a long-tailed candle on Monday, indicating dip demand near $6,600 and weakening the immediate bearish view put forward by a rising wedge breakdown seen on Friday. The cryptocurrency also encountered bearish pressures near $7,200 on weekend, as indicated by the long upper shadow attached to Sunday’s candle. The outlook, therefore, will remain neutral as long as prices are trapped in the $6,600–$7,200 range. A break above the top end could bring in stronger chart-driven buying and yield a rally toward $7,800. Alternatively, a move below the lower end of the trading range would open the doors to $7,100.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin rallied by 7.25% on Thursday. Reversing a 3.48% slide from Wednesday, Bitcoin ended the day at $7,114.7. A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin slide to an early morning intraday low $6,500.4 before making a move. Bitcoin fell through the first major support level at $6,522.6 before rallying to a final hour intraday high $7,200.0. Bitcoin moved back through the first major support level before breaking through the first major resistance level at $6,842.7 and the second major resistance level at $7,051.7. While easing back late in the day, Bitcoin held onto $7,000 levels for the 1 st time since 9 th April. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from $10,000 levels to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was also a bullish day on Thursday. Ethereum, EOS, and Tezos led the way, with gains of 12.95%, 10.59%, and 11.07% respectively. Binance Coin (+8.10%), Bitcoin Cash ABC (+9.63%), Bitcoin Cash SV (+7.37%), Cardano’s ADA (+8.10%), Litecoin (+8.40%), Monero’s XMR (+7.34%), and Stellar’s Lumen (+7.85%) also found strong support. Ripple’s XRP (+5.61%) and Tron’s TRX (+6.78%) trailed the pack on the day. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap rose to a current week high $204.39bn on Thursday. Wednesday’s sell-off had seen the total market cap fall to a current week low $187.38bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $204.08bn. Bitcoin’s dominance eased back from 64% levels following Thursday’s broad-based crypto rally. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 63.9%. 24-hour trading volumes rose from sub-$120bn levels to reach a current week high $168.48bn levels on Thursday before easing back. At the time of writing, 24-hr volumes stood at $163.20bn. Story continues This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.32% to $7,137.3. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning low $7,037.5 before rising to a high $7,160.5. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day. Binance Coin and Stellar’s Lumen bucked the trend early on, with losses of 0.20% and 0.82% respectively. Tezos led the way early on, however, with a gain of 1.72% at the time of writing. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through to $7,200 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $7,376.33 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from the morning high $7,160.5. Barring another broad-based crypto rally, resistance at $7,200 would likely leave Bitcoin short of the first major resistance level. In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, Bitcoin could eye $7,500 levels before any pullback. Failure to move through to $7,200 levels could see Bitcoin fall back into the red. A fall through to sub-$6,940 levels would bring the first major support level at $6,676.73 into play. Barring a crypto meltdown, however, Bitcoin should steer of sub-$6,900 levels.

U.S. dollar-backed blockchain tokens are surging in popularity around the world, and this time much of the demand is for payments in normal business transactions, not just to move money quickly between cryptocurrency exchanges, Allaire claimed. \x93Over the past several weeks, we have seen explosive interest and growth in USDC,\x94 he said, referring to the stablecoin Circle issues in partnership with Coinbase. \x93There is clearly very significant global demand for digital dollars, and the use of digital dollars as a new payment medium.\x94 Related: Why This Global Crisis Is a Defining Moment for Stablecoins New signups have come from e-commerce marketplaces, advertising networks, luxury goods producers, recruiting platforms, digital content markets, peer-to-peer lending platforms, payment companies, software firms, professional services firms, rewards businesses, mobile banking providers and other internet companies, Allaire said. \x93We are getting feedback from Asian market participants that there is more and more demand for USDC from SMEs seeking both the safety and utility of digital dollars,\x94 he said, using a term for small and medium-sized enterprises.

As well as fulfilling the requests, it gave me several other ideas of comparison as I noticed some interesting differences between the subs when altering the criteria.\n\nAs noted in the original post, all this data is available via Google\'s Big Query. I previously had used up my monthly quota, and had to wait for that to refill before I could run the data presented here. Since then, data is now available through October 2019, which I\'ve included.\n\n------------\n\nIn part one, I considered any user that made at least 100 comments through September 2019 as an active user in T_D. In part 2, we\'re going to compare it to a few other subs: Politics, news (the numbers are closely comparable,) SandersForPresident (a request,) and TMOR (for fun.) In comparing them all, this post includes the following criteria:\n\n**For data from Jan 1st, 2019, through the end of October, 2019.**\n\n**Active user counts**\n\n* Users with 100+ comments \n* Users with 50+ comments\n* Users with 25+ comments\n\n* Statistics of user comment counts per sub, for users with 25 or more comments (standard deviation, average, outliers, etc.)\n\n**Percentage of comments made by different active user criteria.**\n\n* Total comments by users with 100+\n* Total comments by users with 50+ and change compared to 100.\n* Total comments by users with 25+ and change compared to 50.\n* Total comments by users with 10+ and change compared to 25.\n\n**For data from October 1st, 2016 through October 31, 2019**\n\n* Users making 11 or more comments per month, broken down by month.\n* Users making 3 or more comments per day, broken down by day.\n\n-------------\n\n# Active user counts.\n\nThis part is fairly straightforward - counting active users based on the total comments made on a given sub in 2019, through the end of October (the latest data available.)\n\n100+ Comments\n\nsubreddit|ActiveUsers\n:--|:--\nnews|8212\nThe_Donald|12154\nTopMindsOfReddit|776\nSandersForPresident|706\npolitics|30580\n\n50+ Comments\n\nsubreddit|ActiveUsers\n:--|:--\nnews|19406\nThe_Donald|19007\nTopMindsOfReddit|1605\nSandersForPresident|1517\npolitics|53764\n\n25+ comments\n\nsubreddit|ActiveUsers\n:--|:--\nnews|40983 ([Statistics](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/17Z6VcQWJU1Z4JbtcUrUDgdhj0l3pj_LT4txuvcNIIbo/edit?usp=sharing))\nThe_Donald|28028 ([Statistics](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1FPGib5EmfVwofl5qOtQln-1kiS-vu6btI7-glxQm6tM/edit?usp=sharing))\nTopMindsOfReddit|3260 ([Statistics](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vdzMEgQrVvBkjmfvd73QERIzXNzfVv4Q69fPlkW6Up4/edit?usp=sharing))\nSandersForPresident|3065 ([Statistics](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1MhOALpnkfmiD1zLi-7PvkKDKi5WFTUCxa_UStcprBTI/edit?usp=sharing))\npolitics|89777 ([Statistics](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/10PvlXVxmflAB7obf9Rt0dl5shiljJ5NhWpLhrY8fY90/edit?usp=sharing))\n\nEven when we drop the criteria down to 25 comments over 10 months to be considered an active user, T_D is no where in the realm of "millions" of users.\n\nAn interesting thing to note - even with TMOR and SFP being much smaller subs, all of them have an interesting characteristic. While they all have pretty widely varying averages and deviations, they have one stat that isn\'t all that different between all of them: 3-4% of users make up roughly 1/3 of all comments. I suspect if I hit up other subs I\'d find something similar occurring.\n\n-------------\n\n#Total Comments by "active users."\n\n[Comparison of total comments made with different active user criteria.](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1r2TY_4DQcCaAKlqApmf8bVVt0CrIaCbQeOy3iGAn34Q/edit?usp=sharing)\n\nThings get interesting here. The first section is the raw numbers, and the second section is the percentage of comments made by that particular metric of active users. Consider in my original post that one of the reasons I settled on 100 comments as the "active user" threshold, was that they make more than 80% of the comments on T_D. In this regard, the metric of "users making 100 comments make up more than 80% of all comments" only works for T_D. Using the 100+ comment criteria, politics has nearly 3x more active users than T_D,but on Politics, they only make up ~68.6% of all comments.\n\nIf we jump down to users with 25+ comments, that\'s when Politics passes the threshold where those active users make more than 80% of all comments. For all the other subs in the comparison, even by the metric of just 10 comments to be considered active, they don\'t reach that 80% mark. So if we look at the criteria of what constitutes the active user base that makes up a majority of the commentary, it has to be adjusted per sub, and in this regard, 100 still seems to be a good metric for determining an actively participating T_D user. That being said, using the 25+ criteria on T_D, those users make up 93% of all comments.\n\nIf you look at the last set of data in the above sheet we can see another interesting picture. The change in percentage of total comments by the specified active user group shows little difference between the criteria sets for T_D, and much bigger differences for the others (save for Politics, but only after dropping down to 50+ users.) This tells us at at 100+ we already captured the vast majority of users that create all the commentary on T_D, with Politics capturing it at 50+ users.\n\n-------------\n\n#Active Users over time.\n\n[Active users by month, with 11 or more comments in any given month.](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fPY3wb0917yFtZMS2w5sxNOXECgUsxqRaYqR5Aopavw/edit?usp=sharing)\n\n*Note that since TMOR and SFP are much smaller, they use the right axis on a different scale.*\n\nWith this we can see some trends and see how many users are actually active within a given month. And from this we can see that every sub but r/news and r/the_donald is on an upward trend. News is barely on a downward trend, but T_D has been on a very large downward trend - they\'ve been shrinking since 2016. And of course \'millions of users\' are nowhere to be seen.\n\n[Active users by day, with 3 or more comments on any given day.](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1XT2tJpiEpzH8eNzbJ_cuC_e1z64mY70zNMNHqe8-iWg/edit?usp=sharing)\n\nThis one is a little more wild, and I don\'t think it\'s quite as accurate as the month breakdown, as it\'s entirely reasonable to see an "active" user not comment for random days and still consider them active. I originally had all the subs from above included, but it was making it unreadable, so this one only includes T_D, Politics, and SFP. Again, SFP\'s scale is on the right so it\'s visible since it\'s a much smaller sub. With daily activity we do see some similar patterns - Politics sees effectively no trend up or down. SOP sees a slight increase, while T_D\'s fits the monthly with a downward trend. Also note that the daily active users for T_D and politics nearly mirror each other, with different magnitudes.\n\n-------------\n\n#Final Thoughts\n\nClearly, by any metric, T_D never has anything remotely approaching "millions" of users. It came up in my previous submission that T_D likes to blame the quarantine for their decreased activity, but we can clearly see that they\'ve been losing people since 2016. T_D shit the bed around the time I made my last post, so for the last month, by any of these metrics, T_Ds current active user count is 0.', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/TopMindsOfReddit/comments/g2p5yb/meta_top_minds_of_the_d...

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin slipped by 0.97% on Friday. Partially reversing a 7.25% rally from Thursday, Bitcoin ended the day at $7,045.8. It was a bearish start to the day. Bitcoin slid from an early morning intraday high $7,160.5 to an early afternoon intraday low $7,010.2. Steering clear of the major support and resistance levels, Bitcoin rebounded to $7,150 levels in the final hour. A bearish end to the day, however, left Bitcoin at sub-$7,100 and in the red. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from $10,000 levels to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a bearish day on Friday. EOS (-1.50%), Monero’s XMR (-1.18%), and Tezos (-1.46%) led the way down. Binance Coin (-0.82%), Ethereum (-0.98%), Litecoin (-0.92%), and Ripple’s XRP (-0.83%) weren’t far behind. Bitcoin Cash SV (-0.51%), Cardano’s ADA (-0.55%), and Tron’s TRX saw relatively modest losses on the day. Bitcoin Cash ABC closed out the day flat to avoid a day in the red. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap rose to a current week high $205.45bn late on Friday. A Wednesday sell-off had seen the total market cap fall to a current week low $187.38bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $204.00bn. Bitcoin’s dominance eased back from 64% levels following Thursday’s broad-based crypto rally. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 63.8%. 24-hour trading volumes rose from sub-$120bn levels to reach a current week high $168.48bn on Thursday before easing back. At the time of writing, 24-hr volumes stood at $119.43bn. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.61% to $7,088.6. A bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin rise from an early morning low $7,031.1 to a high $7,090.0. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Story continues Elsewhere, it was a bullish start to the day. Bitcoin Cash SV was down by 0.35% early on to buck the trend. Binance Coin (+1.50%), Cardano’s ADA (+1.56%), Ethereum (+1.29%), and Tezos (+1.01%) led the way early on. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through to $7,100 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $7,134.13 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from the morning high $7,090. Barring another broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $7,160.5 would likely cap any upside. In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, the second major resistance level at $7,222.47 would come into play. Failure to move through to $7,100 levels could see Bitcoin fall back into the red. A fall through to sub-$7,070 levels would bring the first major support level at $6,983.83 into play. Barring a crypto meltdown, however, Bitcoin should steer of sub-$6,900 levels. The second major support level at $6,921.87 should limit any downside on the day.

In anoticeposted Tuesday, the independent financial regulator said the exchange has been targeting British residents without its consent or approval. “Almost all firms and individuals offering, promoting or selling financial services or products in the UK have to be authorized by us,” the watchdog said. Related:How the Bitcoin Market Changed Since 2017’s Bull Run The FCA said it holds information indicating that BitMEX was conducting regulated activities that required its authorization. As part of its normal activities, the financial regulator does flag entities it perceives as unlawful or suspicious, or cryptocurrency products, such as derivatives, it deems high risk for consumers. In fact, the authoritysaid in 2018that companies offering crypto derivatives likely need to be authorized because such products may be financial instruments under current directives. A limitedban on selling crypto derivativeslike exchange-traded notes is also planned by the regulator, which said such products are “ill-suited” to retail investors “who cannot reliably assess the value and risks of derivatives or ETNs that reference certain crypto assets.” “We are working closely with our advisors to assess the situation. There is nothing more we can add at this time,” BitMEX told CoinDesk. Related:Crypto Exchange Huobi’s DeFi-Focused Blockchain Released in Public Beta In what appears to be a slip-up, the FCA also issued a warning over popular crypto exchange Kraken on Tuesday. However, the notice has since been removed, with Decrypt news editor Tim Copelandtweeting that the warninghad been issued after the FCA confused the legitimate Kraken service with scammers purporting to be the exchange. In January, BCB Group, a company that provides financial services to the likes of Coinbase, Bitstamp and Galaxy Digital, wasawarded a payments licenseby the FCA. The firm’s CEO, Oliver von Landsberg-Sadie told CoinDesk that conditions in the U.K were such that many crypto-to-crypto exchanges were light on meeting regulatory obligations, mainly since no fiat currency changes hands. He said the watchdog’s concerns become more severe depending on the type of financial product on offer, with derivatives being at the top of the list as they present the greatest risk to consumers. “This statement by the FCA is one which fulfills one of its 3 core objectives – keep markets efficient, provide a framework to raise capital, and protect consumers. Few would argue against stricter controls on access to this kind of product,” Landsberg-Sadie said. The FCA had not replied to CoinDesk’s request for comment by press time.

It was my freshman year of college. I was settling in quite well. I made friends with a bunch of people in our residence hall, we hit it off immediately. We started going out on the weekends, starting with thirsty Thursday, which turns out is actually a thing. I had more than one room mate. We lived in a four person suite with two bedrooms. I had a full ride to my University, so I had a lot of extra money to spend on my living arrangements and meal plan. Oh yeah, I was also a huge pothead.\n\nI made friends with the dealer on my floor and started buying him extra meals in exchange for weed. That\'s when one of my room mates came to me with a proposition. He asked me if I knew what bitcoins were. I did not. He explained the virtual currency and how it worked. Then he really laid it all out. He told me that he had quite a lot of bitcoins and that he wants to get into selling weed. It all sounded great, but I wasn\'t sure what he needed me for. He then told me that he doesn\'t really talk to anyone and that he always sees me with people and going to parties every weekend. Okay, this makes sense. He told me how the operation would work, and it sounded swell. For the record, I was eighteen and very stupid. Anyway, he would purchase the drugs from the Silk Road, a dark website where you can buy literally fucking anything. Our friend Noah would then get the goods delivered to his apartment, which had a mailroom with hundreds of mailboxes. This was good because it would be just a little bit less suspicious, also his apartment was not on our campus. Then we\'d package everything there and move it to our dorm, which had it\'s own security. We lived in North Philadelphia, so the security and police were always looking out for the students. After we safely had the products, I would find the buyers.\n\nOur first shipment went well. We ordered a half pound of weed, a gram of hash, ten hits of LSD, a small bag of opium (for us), and 1000mg of Alprazolam extract for my room mate\'s personal anxiety treatment. We got into this business to become weed salesmen. That weed took forever to sell. Everyone who sold weed already had good connections from their hometowns. The LSD though, that sold in five fucking minutes to one buyer who was interested in buying much more than ten hits. He asked us if we could sell him a couple hundred tabs. He said he\'d pay $350 for each sheet of 100. We looked at the price per sheet on the Silk Road. It would cost us only $80 each. Yes sir, we can absolutely sell you a couple sheets. We told him we\'d call him when it arrived. Later that night we brewed some opium tea and celebrated entering the LSD business. We bought the sheets for him, and we also bought two extras in case anyone else wanted some.\n\nThe next shipment came with no problems. Our friend came over and bought the sheets we had promised him. We made nearly $800 on that deal. We thought that was a lot, so we celebrated. Later that same day, while smoking a blunt in our courtyard, I made friends with some art students. They invited me to their dorm on the third floor. I agreed, went with them, and we listened to music and painted the walls of the dorm room which was super against the rules. They started talking about how they had taken magic mushrooms two weeks before and how it was life changing. I told them I had two-hundred hits of acid in my room. I\'ve never seen people get so excited in my entire life. They bought all of it. They paid $400 for each sheet. Seemingly out of nowhere we made $600. Again, we thought this was a lot.\n\nMy room mate was really happy with my networking abilities. Dude, I was just getting high with some hipster art students. I didn\'t really possess the "networking skills" that everyone thought I had. We went online and purchased another five sheets. We started getting a bit more confident in our ability to sell this magic money making paper. That week I was in one of my classes and had to do a group project with a kid named Eddy. We went to his apartment to work on the project after class. Eddy had an apartment off campus because he was an upperclassman. On the way he asked if I smoked weed. Of course. He said he had something to show me. When we got there he showed me a small weed plant he was growing. It was an adorable little plant in a flower pot by the window. I asked if he needed any weed and he said that he did not. We smoked a bit and then her offered me a Xanax. I had never taken Xanax, so I googled the pill he offered me. Alprazolam. Huh, that\'s funny. I told him I had 1000mg of alprazolam in my room. This excited him.\n\nI asked my room mate if he was willing to sell some of his private stash. Eddy only wanted to buy around 100 milligrams. He agreed and I brought Eddy to my dorm. We gave it to him for the cool price of $150, a slick markdown from what he was paying. After all we hadn\'t even planned on selling that stuff. He asked how we got it so cheap and if we could get anything else. We told him that we sell LSD. He said he loves hallucinogens and would love to purchase a sheet, so he did. Four sheets left. If we sell them, we can get a new and faster computer.\n\nThe weekend came and I was hanging out with two of my friends from our residence hall. Joe, who was really chill and loved smoking weed as much as I did. And Bianca, who was so cool that it frightened me. She was really intimidating. I had a huge crush on her, but she was "talking" to a kid that lived in Johnson and Hardwick hall. Bianca was the type of person you see in movies about cool kids doing cool things. A character who has a lot of depth, but it takes nearly the whole movie to slowly peel back the layers, and by that time you\'re in love. I told her if we sold the rest of our acid I\'d buy her a new tattoo. She was covered in them. That night Joe was going to take us to his friend Jamie\'s house. We were going to try cocaine for the first time. I was terrified. Not only was I terrified about trying cocaine, but I was scared of doing it with Bianca. I just didn\'t know how I would act, and I didn\'t want to do something stupid.\n\nWe arrived at Jamie\'s house. Jamie was also intimidating. His house was what your typical trap house looked like at the time, with a bunch of really expensive music equipment. Everybody wanted to be a rapper or a D.J. that year. He introduced all his friends and offered us lines of coke. Here we go. Joe went first, he\'d already done some before. Bianca went next without hesitation. Now it was my turn. I remember my hand shaking with the rolled up bill between my fingers. I chose the smallest line and sniffed. It did not taste anything like I expected. Five minutes went by. Oh, this is what cocaine is like. It was so underwhelming. It was also some thoroughly stepped on shit. I know that now because since then I\'ve done some foreign blow that literally almost made my heart stop. Anyway, Jamie and I got to talking, mostly about his "music career". Jamie told me if I ever wanted to buy cocaine in bulk to hit him up. I laughed and told him if he ever wanted to buy LSD in bulk to hit me up. I was half joking. He looked at me with the straightest face and asked if I was serious. Honestly, this Jamie guy really scared the shit out of me. He was a good ten inches taller than me and the whole scene was really starting to freak me out. I told him I was serious though. He told me to come with him.\n\nHe brought me into his room and closed the door. In the room it was quiet. The walls were sound proofed. I looked around and the room was full of money, cocaine, and guns. Okay, he\'s probably not going to kill me. I hope. He then asked about my LSD connection. I told him I could get sheets for $350. He said he wanted books. Books? This guy wants books? I didn\'t know this at the time, but a book is a thousand hits of LSD. I told him I had to talk to some people and I would let him know the price, but that I could definitely make it happen. We went back into the party and he gave me line after line of cocaine. Joe offered him money for the lines, but Jamie told him not to pay. He said your friend here bought you guys as much coke as you want for the night. Honestly, that made me feel really cool. After the party I talked to my room mate and told him what happened. We looked up the price of a book on the Silk Road. $300. Not only could we have saved a lot of money if we had just bought a book from the start, but we were going to make a lot more money selling by the book. The days of getting excited over $800 were about to come to an abrupt end.\n\nI talked to Jamie and asked how much he would be willing to pay for each book. He said he would pay no more than $3000 for each book. We decided we would sell him the books for $2,800 each. He agreed and asked how many we had. I said we can start with five books. He agreed. This was perfect. Not only were we about to make more money than we had ever expected, but acid was incredibly easy to ship. They were basically sheets of paper. Our supplier used to send it to us in between the pages of large children\'s coloring books. The books, or prints, as our supplier called them, blended with the kid\'s books very well. Our prints consisted of a large picture of Bart Simpson, The Grateful Dead bears, and a double rainbow portrait. If you didn\'t know what acid was, you wouldn\'t know these were drugs. We made nearly $14,000 from that first deal.\n\nOver the course of a few months we would sell close to thirty-thousand hits of LSD. We had $75,000 in cash sitting in an empty bedroom at Noah\'s apartment. I stopped going to class. My room mate had filled his entire room with computer parts and instruments. Noah, well we...

Reversing a 0.97% fall from Friday, Bitcoin ended the day at $7,268.8. It was a bullish day for Bitcoin on Saturday. Bitcoin rallied from an early morning intraday $7,031.1 to a late intraday high $7,309.7. The day-long rally saw Bitcoin break through the first major resistance level at $7,134.13 and second major resistance level at $7,222.47. Bitcoin came within range of the third major resistance level at $7,372.77 before easing back. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000.

A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin fall from an early morning high $7,285.4 to a low $7,210.0. Story continues Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day. Bitcoin Cash SV and Tezos bucked the trend early on, with gains of 0.34% and 0.10% respectively. It was a bearish start to the day for the rest of the majors, however. Binance Coin (-1.24%), Cardano’s ADA (-1.06%), and EOS (-1.45%) led the way down early on. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through to $7,300 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $7,375.30 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to breakout from Saturday’s high $7,309.7. Barring another broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high $7,309.7 would likely cap any upside. In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, the second major resistance level at $7,481.80 would come into play. Failure to move through to $7,300 levels could see Bitcoin fall deeper into the red. A fall through to sub-$7,200 levels would bring the first major support level at $7,096.70 into play. Barring a crypto meltdown, however, Bitcoin should steer of sub-$7,000 levels.

Lendf is one of two protocols supported by the dForce Foundation. “Lendf.me confirmed it was attacked at 8:45 Beijing time Sunday at block height 9899681,” Lendf.me said to Chinese media outlet Chain News . dForce did not respond to CoinDesk’s requests for comment by press time.

It is unclear whether any users were able to withdraw their funds or if the attacker seized all $25 million. Compound CEO Robert Leshner claimed the attacker seized the full total. Lendf’s website reads “Do not supply anymore!” dForce Foundation CEO Mindao Yang said the team was “still investigating” the incident and urged users to “not supply any asset into lendf.me for now” in the protocol’s open Telegram channel. The website appeared to go down shortly after 04:00 UTC. After the attack, DeFi Pulse reported Lendf’s accounts holding $18,900 in USD, or about 101 ether or 2.6 bitcoin as of press time.

The Palo Alto-based company announced Thursday it is now offering institutional digital asset lending services. Founded in 2013 by CEO Mike Belshe, BitGo started testing the new service a few months ago to big investors and has already racked up about $150 million in open loans, according to Nick Carmi, a former Deutsche Bank executive who is overseeing the effort as BitGo’s head of financial services. The new service is initially targeting BitGo’s existing custody clients, the company said in a statement. BitGo is currently lendingbitcoin(BTC),ether(ETH),litecoin(LTC) and stablecoins, Carmi said in an interview. The company also will lend out government-issued currencies including U.S. dollars to investors who post cryptocurrencies as collateral. Related:Bitcoin Stays Above $9,000 in US Trading With big banks still mostly eschewing the 11-year-old digital-asset industry, a new breed of lenders is stepping into the void to meet the demand, partly from investors seeking to amplify returns on their cryptocurrency bets, through the use of leverage. The business model of cryptocurrency lenders works much like that of traditional banks: Take in assets from depositors, pay them interest and then make loans at a higher interest rate. The lender can seize the collateral to pay off the loan if the borrower defaults. “I’m running a matched spread and making a profit on that,” Carmi said. “This is no different from the way banks do it.” BitGo’s new push comes as cryptocurrency lenders have reported runaway growth compared with traditional banks. Related:How the Bitcoin Market Changed Since 2017’s Bull Run New York-based Genesis Trading, owned by the crypto-focused investment firm Digital Currency Group, said in January that its lending book swelled by 21 percent in the fourth quarter alone to$545 million, driven by demand from big investors as well as aggregators of smaller loans in Asia and Europe. Such growth was more than 10 times the pace at New York-based JPMorgan, the biggest U.S. bank, where loan balances increased by 2 percent – roughly in line with the broader economy’s expansion. Digital Currency Group, which owns CoinDesk, is an investor in BitGo. Other backers include the Wall Street firm Goldman Sachs and crypto-focused investor Galaxy Digital Ventures, led by the former hedge-fund executive and Goldman partner Mike Novogratz. So far, Carmi said, the vast majority of BitGo’s loans are denominated in bitcoin — similar to the oldest cryptocurrency’s dominance in digital-asset markets. According to BitGo’s website, Belshe started the company after serving in the early 2010s as a custodian for himself and other tech investors by securing digital coins on anoffline laptop hidden beneath his couch. In an industry fraught with reports of scammers, hacks and regulatory missteps, cryptocurrency asset safekeeping has become akey priority for big investorswilling to stomach the risks in exchange for outsize profits from betting on the notoriously volatile market. Bitcoin pricesnearly doubled in 2019 and are up 22 percent so far this year. Such performance contrasts with the Standard & Poor’s 500 Index, the benchmark for large U.S. stocks, which has fallen 4.3 percent in 2020 amid coronavirus fears after climbing 29 percent last year. Last month, BitGo announced plans to buy the two-year-old, blockchain-focused startup Harbor, best known for itsfailed effort in 2019to tokenize $20 million of shares in a South Carolina high-rise building. Belshe said in Thursday’s statement that “we are melding the best of Wall Street’s sophisticated understanding of how to work with institutional investors and the best of Silicon Valley’s technology and innovation.” • Bitcoin Prints Bullish Price Pattern With Move Above $9K • Crypto Lender Babel Hits $380M in Outstanding Loans... - Reddit Posts (Sample): [['u/BooksAndBooksAnd', 'I am 100% invested in BCH (also)', 41, '2020-04-19 00:41', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/g3wmiw/i_am_100_invested_in_bch_also/', "Not sure who this is for but here goes.\n\nI've been buying Bitcoin (now called Bitcoin Cash) since 2013.

The cash under your mattress does not earn any interest and has a theoretical storage cost. (Even if there’s no direct outlay, there’s the cost of a lack of solid rest due to bumpy sleep surfaces.) And there’s the opportunity cost – just think of all the potential returns you’re forgoing by not investing in stocks or bonds (oh wait…).\nThe cash in your bank account is also unlikely to produce meaningful income. And we now have the very real possibility that banks will start to apply negative rates to cash holdings, as part of a mandated strategy to stimulate spending.\n(Note that I’m not saying I agree with this rationale, just that it’s often trotted out.

And manyrenowned investorsare flush with cash, preferring to have “dry powder” for when opportunities arise.)\nA bigger-picture way to look at cash returns is the real yield, which incorporates inflation. We are already seeing a dip in inflation as spending plummets due to lockdowns, but once economies re-open and the stimulus checks are used to purchase everyday items made relatively scarce by supply chain constraints, inflation is likely to edge or even surge upwards.\nRelated:Russians Withdrew a Year’s Worth of Cash in a Month Over Coronavirus Fears\nThis will push real yields on cash well into negative territory. Then, cash will indeed be “trash.” But at least its negative territory will be stable.\nLet’s look at the yield outlook for government bonds. Even before the Federal Reserve abruptly cut its benchmark rate to 0 percent last month, U.S. bond yields were heading down across all maturities. Other government debt either carries a negative return or default and currency risk.\nCorporate bonds offer higher yields, but a wave of defaults is more likely now than at any time in recent history. They don’t call it a risk premium for nothing.\nStock yields, which have recently been even higher than bonds, are likely to head sharply down as dividends are cut across the board.\nTwo assets that aren’t looking at lower yields? Gold andbitcoin.\nBoth are “real assets” in that they don’t have any income. Which means there’s no income to cut. Their value may go down as well as up but it will do so because of consensus market forces, not political interference or centralized decisions.\nThis adds a new nuance to the use of the word “real.” Both gold and bitcoin can be influenced by political priorities and economic measures, but their intrinsic value cannot. And both gold and bitcoin are relatively liquid instruments with sophisticated derivatives markets.\nTrue, both are held in multi-asset portfolios valued in fiat currencies, and both largely depend on fiat currencies for their utility, for now. But of the two, only bitcoin can operate efficiently outside the fiat rails. Only bitcoin can be exchanged for other assets without going through a fiat conversion.\nFor now, this feature is limited to crypto exchanges that let you buy other crypto assets with bitcoin. It’s a start, and as traditional and crypto capital markets gingerly approach each other it’s likely to spread.\nAdmittedly, that will take time; meanwhile, the point is this: Unlike cash and securities, bitcoin is not vulnerable to centralized decisions on asset yields, and it can be used in a way similar to cash in asset purchases. It is the only quasi-cash equivalent that is resilient to the likely politicization of finance that results from the current ructions in markets and the broader economy.\nCash may be dissed by some who believe that yields should be a fundamental investment consideration; but everything in the investment world is relative. We could see attention start to coalesce around a potential alternative – not to cash itself, but to the role it plays in asset allocations. Bitcoin is by no means a cash substitute, at least not yet. It will, however, become an increasingly intriguing alternative for some of cash’s applications.\nMarkets were all over the place this week, with bitcoin dropping 8 percent between Monday and Thursday, only to rebound by almost 9 percent by Friday.\nThe S&P 500 was also volatile, clocking in a second weekly gain in a row for the first time since February, in spite of yet another staggering jump in unemployment claims, the worst retail sales data since 1992, the worst New York state manufacturing data since WWII and a relentless climb in COVID-19 casualties. Maybe expectations arejust so badthat the actual news comes as a relief. Or maybe reality doesn’t matter anymore. I don’t know.\nNot to be left out, gold is also doing weird things, with the spread between the spot and futures price widening to its highest level in 40 years. The spot price reached its highest point in seven years, which is confusing given the strong performance of the main equity index. I really need to dig deeper into what the problem is, if any, with physical delivery.\nIt was an intense week for significant (albeit unsurprising) developments in global stablecoins. The Facebook-backed Libra Project has pivoted from a multi-currency-backed global token to a wallet and blockchain forsingle currency stablecoinsas well as a multi-currency stablecoin-backed stablecoin (not a typo).\nThe idea of a “digital dollar” to facilitate stimulus payments has been reintroduced in thelatest stimulus bill.\nAnd mycolleagues Wolfie Zhao and David Pan went deepinto the Chinese national blockchain platform with global ambitions that could significantly impact the digital currency plans of central banks around the world.\nOur chief content officer, Michael Casey, has launched a newsletter focused on the impact of these and other developments on our financial system.

But, digging a bit deeper, it’s not that at all. Renaissance is a quant firm, which means it does not pay attention to underlying stories. It cares about correlations. Bitcoin exposure does not mean the managers see bitcoin as a revolutionary idea worth betting on; it’s a number.

Daily chart indicators are also aligning in favor of the bulls. Markets may shake out weak hands by revisiting sub-$9,000 levels briefly before printing stronger gains on the bull breakout. The 200-day average at $8,713 is the level to beat for the bears. Bitcoin (BTC) has crossed above $9,000, confirming a bullish breakout on technical charts and opening the doors for stronger gains. The cryptocurrency is currently changing hands near $9,075 on Bitstamp, representing a 3.5 percent gain on the day. Meanwhile, its global average price, as calculated by CoinDesk’s Bitcoin Price Index , is seen at $9,050. Today’s rally is preceded by a bear failure at key support. Bitcoin sellers led the price action on Tuesday and Wednesday and printed intraday lows near $8,660, but could not establish a secure foothold below the 200-day average at $8,720. Related: Bitcoin Stays Above $9,000 in US Trading Defense of the long-term average has paved the way for a bigger bull move, as expected. Notably, with the rise from $8,660 to $9,090 (today’s high so far), bitcoin has charted a bullish inverse head-and-shoulders breakout on the hourly technical chart. Hourly chart The hourly candle, representing price action in the 60 minutes to 10:00 UTC, closed above neckline resistance of $9,000, confirming an inverse head-and-shoulders bullish reversal pattern – a transition from a bearish lower-highs and lower-lows set up to bullish higher-lows and higher-highs. The breakout is backed by an uptick in buying volumes, as represented by the green bars, and has opened the doors to $9,550 (target as per the measured move method). Related: How the Bitcoin Market Changed Since 2017’s Bull Run Seasoned traders would argue an inverse head-and-shoulders breakout does not always accelerate the bull move and often traps buyers on the wrong side of the market. While that’s true, its effect depends on context. Story continues If the pattern appears following a notable price drop, as is the case here, the breakout usually causes more buyers to join the market. Further, markets often crowd out weak hands (buyers) following an inverse head-and-shoulders breakout by revisiting the former hurdle-turned-support of the neckline. So, a brief drop to or below $9,000 may be seen before rally toward higher resistance levels. Daily chart Bitcoin is flashing green, having defended the 200-day average for the second day running on Wednesday. The cryptocurrency’s price rise is in line with a bullish reversal doji pattern confirmed on Monday . The relative strength index has breached the descending trendline, signaling an end of the pullback from the recent high of $10,500. Further, the MACD histogram is producing higher lows in support of the bulls. All in all, technical charts look to have aligned in favor of a rise to resistance at $9,312 (Feb. 19 low). A violation there would expose the inverse-head-and-shoulders breakout target of $9,550. The bullish case would weaken only if prices print a UTC close below the 200-day average at $8,713.

The annual series consists of much more than the highly publicized $10,000 No-Limit Texas Hold ‘em main event. This year’s series was scheduled to host 117 tournaments with buy-ins ranging from multiple $400 events to the $250,000 Super High-Roller No-Limit Hold ‘em event originally scheduled for June 27.

Students of history will know that money has always been an instrument of the State, and that debt is how you build an Empire. To wage war, you must borrow from the Iron Bank. Taxes are the royal lifeblood, and we are economic appendages for the body politic. In this frame, regulatory licensing is the granting of monopoly power over State privilege.

The money seems to be doing some weird things these days, if you are a country. Like, some really weird things! For example, the money keeps trying to transform itself into private cash equivalents and hide out in blockchains. Strange new companies, which are definitely not licensed to lend and borrow, keep buying up money, putting it into a box, and launching tokenized versions of units of account. It’s not even clear that it is companies doing this – sometimes it is just a bunch of open source-obsessed strangers on the internet. Story continues About $3 billion of tokenized cash sweep, in large part on the Ethereum blockchain and used in trading and decentralized finance, now sits in crypto exchanges. Tether alone is $7 billion of market capitalization today (not all is on exchanges). This is a sign of people entering the ecosystem to access new financial instruments . Note, these are not investment trends. This is not about a stablecoin ever being worth more than one dollar per unit. Rather, it is about flows and where the money is going. This cash is the rounding error in your asset allocation. Cash should be 5-10 percent of your net worth depending on risk tolerance. Meanwhile, Facebook and Silicon Valley startups with billions of users are also trying to reinvent money. As a country, you may have a few hundred million people here and there. But the technology platforms are global and far better coordinated than international political bodies. They have people’s attentions and hearts; you just have taxes and the sword. If you haven’t seen it yet, the Libra Association released a second version of its white paper reflecting the input of regulators . The initial cut was focused on a technology council that issued a currency basket as an initial reserve, and then tech company users would contribute to that currency basket from across the world. Net interest income would flow to the council, yielding billions as balances reached trillions. The new cut is both more modest, and more dangerous. That is precisely what makes it so dangerous and likely to be adopted. The libra coin will be a mere basket (i.e., an allocation container) of underlying central bank digital currencies represented on the network (for my prior take on CBDCs, see here ). This means there will be a digital dollar, a digital euro and a digital sterling all traveling on the Libra blockchain rails. This is analogous to today’s stablecoins traveling on the Ethereum rails. The white paper update is less ambitious in that it will not create a new form of money, and that the Libra rails will be fully permissioned.

Worldwide, there have been numerous calls by governments and social commentators to increase the surveillance of citizens in hope of controlling the virus. Corporations such as Google and Apple, along with countries such as Singapore, Germany, Belgium, USA, and South Korea have been\xa0utilizing smartphone data\xa0in different capacities to monitor the movements of citizens.\n\nMany believe the implementation of new surveillance measures will calcify and become the new norm, setting precedence for further encroachment.\n\nMainstream media has also begun supporting the notion of increased surveillance to serve social and financial needs. A recent\xa0Bloomberg opinion piece\xa0discussed the need for increased surveillance, pointing out the financial system we operate within is fractured and inefficient when dealing with wide spread social and economic problems.\n\nOnce again, government over-reach of citizens’ privacy is a considered solution to our problems.\n\nCountries such as Sweden (which is expected to go entirely cashless by 2023) have been leading the charge in moving to a cashless world, and in Australia the government is preparing to\xa0ban cash transactions over ten thousand dollars\xa0in order to increase monitorization.\n\nThis road to a cashless society is being sped up by the coronavirus pandemic. There is correlation between countries where ‘cash is king’ and a high number of coronavirus infections. Many retail stores are now too afraid to accept cash due to possible virus transmission, with some\xa0outright refusing\xa0to transact with cash.\n\nThe erosion of privacy, and the gradual transition from cash to digital financial transactions leads us to murky waters. Will we be able to conduct private financial transactions five to ten years from now?\n\nThroughout the past decade, unorthodox individuals turned to Bitcoin in order to transact privately. This led to the inception of popular online darknet markets such as the Silk Road. However, many of the darknet markets proved to be unreliable and short-lived. It soon became apparent to Bitcoin users that Bitcoin is not private, and many of those conducting transactions in relation to darknet markets were identified and prosecuted.\n\nBlockchain analytic companies such as Chainanalysis gained traction and suddenly Bitcoin tumblers were found to be ineffective. Blockchain analytic companies take advantage of Bitcoin’s transparent blockchain, analysing data and tracking transaction outputs. The blockchain analytic company then sells this information to cryptocurrency exchanges and government organisations so they can link Bitcoin addresses to specific users. Many Bitcoin advocates tout Bitcoin can be used privately via the use of newer tumbling technologies, however this is a somewhat arduous process with no guarantee of its effectiveness. In December 2019\xa0Chainanalysis demonstrated\xa0how they tracked transactions mixed via Wasabi Wallet that were associated with the PlusToken scam. Tumbling also leads to the possibility of coin taint, whereas certain Bitcoin may be perceived to be less valuable because they can be identified as being associated with nefarious activities, and as a result exchange services may confiscate coins when a user attempts to sell them.\n\nWhile Bitcoin holds many desirable characteristics of sound money, many prominent figures within the Bitcoin space have repeatedly discussed on the need for default privacy and fungibility. However, as was seen in previous years’ block size dispute, the issue of privacy will come with great lengthy debate as stakeholders attempt to reach a consensus that does not impact upon the characteristics of Bitcoin.\n\nAs change within the social and financial landscape continues to accelerate, those seeking financial privacy may turn to Monero.\n\nMonero is the elephant in the room.\n\nMonero is a cryptocurrency similar to Bitcoin and shares many of the same characteristics of sound money, however it also provides default privacy. Unlike other privacy focused cryptocurrencies, privacy isn’t opt-in, so all transactions and wallet amounts are unknown and indistinguishable from one another. Every unit of Monero is valued equally as no matter its history. This allows Monero to be truly fungible, and eradicates any possibility of coin taint. It has proven this in a number of cases. For example, exchanges have been hesitant to list Monero due to KYC/AML compliance issues it raises because it is impossible to determine transaction history.\n\nIf Monero provides financial privacy solutions, why is Monero being ignored?\n\nFirstly, while most deem privacy to be important, many are yet to find it necessary to adopt privacy technologies. There are many easy to use privacy solutions such as Signal or DuckDuckGo, however these are not widely used as users opt for convenience instead. As surveillance increases and data collected is harnessed to marginalize or punish users, it is like that privacy technologies will become extremely desirable. Additionally, acquiring Monero can be difficult or inconvenient for some, as cryptocurrency exchanges must comply with laws and regulations, and may perceive it to be a risk listing an untraceable cryptocurrency. This also leads to lower liquidity than other cryptocurrencies.\n\nMonero remains a community driven project. Public figures such as John McAfee and Crypto Vigilante continue to advocate the use of Monero ahead of Bitcoin. Due to its humble and open-source nature, Monero isn’t widely promoted even though it maintains the third largest cryptocurrency community on Reddit after Bitcoin and Ethereum.\n\nIn respect to the technology, Monero’s hashrate has steadily been increasing over time, and the number of\xa0daily transactions\xa0taking place on the Monero blockchain are higher than ever. The Monero Research Lab continues its research in order to improve the protocol. Over the past few years these improvements resulted in reduced transaction fees, and enhanced scalability and privacy.\n\nIn just a few years from now, it is extremely likely traditional financial systems will not provide the capacity to transact privately. Banks will be required to ask questions regarding why certain transactions took place, and recorded transaction data will be sold to third parties. As the erosion of our privacy continues to accelerate, it won’t be long until Monero gains the use and recognition it deserves, and price reflects this.\n\nMonero is what people think Bitcoin is.\n\n\n*Feel free to share or publish this article as you wish.*', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/g56bxi/monero_the_elephant_in_the_room/', 'g56bxi', [['u/1Tim1_15', 39, '2020-04-21 04:49', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/g56bxi/monero_the_elephant_in_the_room/fo1ns18/', "Monero is awesome.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin rose by 0.19% on Tuesday. Following a 4.14% slide on Monday, Bitcoin ended the day at $6,850.0. A relatively bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning high $6,923.0 before hitting reverse. Falling short of the major resistance levels, Bitcoin slid to a late morning intraday low $6,770.1. Steering clear of the first major support level at $6,657.03, Bitcoin rallied to a late afternoon intraday high $6,958.8. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $7,127.33, Bitcoin fell back to sub-$6,900 to limit the upside. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from $10,000 levels to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a mixed day on Tuesday. Cardano’s ADA and Stellar’s Lumen led the way, with gains of 2.15% and 1.52% respectively. Binance Coin (+1.07%), Bitcoin Cash ABC (+1.12%), Litecoin (+1.09%), and Tezos (+1.06%) also found relatively strong support. EOS (+0.74%), Ethereum (+0.40%), Monero’s XMR (+0.78%), Ripple’s XRP (+0.89%), and Tron’s TRX (+0.84%) saw more modest gains on the day. Bitcoin Cash SV bucked the trend on the day, falling by 0.57%. Through the start of the week, the crypto total market cap fell from a Monday high $209.37bn to a Tuesday low $196.98bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $198.73bn. Bitcoin’s dominance continued to hover at sub-64% levels following last week’s gains. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 63.5%. 24-hour trading volumes rose from sub-$130bn levels to reach a current week high $146.91bn on Monday before falling back to sub-$120bn levels on Tuesday. At the time of writing, 24-hr volumes stood at $114.46bn. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.29% to $6,869.6. It was a mixed start to the day. Bitcoin fell to an early morning low $6,826.2 before striking a high $6,892.4. Story continues Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was another mixed start to the day. Binance Coin (-0.12%), Bitcoin Cash ABC (-0.17%), and EOS (-0.07%) saw red early on. The rest of the pack found early support. Stellar’s Lumen and Tezos led the way, with gains of 1.63% and 1.61% respectively. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through to $6,900 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $6,949.17 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break back through to $6,900 levels. Barring another broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Tuesday’s high $6,958.8 would likely limit any upside. In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, the second major resistance level at $7,048.33 would likely come into play. Failure to move through to $6,900 levels could see Bitcoin hit reverse. A fall through the morning low $6,826.2 would bring the first major support level at $6,760.47 into play. Barring a crypto meltdown, however, Bitcoin should steer of sub-$6,700 levels.

They then tried (unsuccessfully) to liquidate as much as possible on spot exchanges and distribute the remainder in hundreds of different wallet addresses.\nRelated:Libra’s Long Road From a Facebook Lab to the Global Stage: A Timeline\nPegNet is a decentralized network, built on top of the Factom protocol, where users can trade stablecoins pegged to 42 assets. Besides fiat currencies, there are also digital assets pegged to commodities, such as gold, and other cryptocurrencies includingbitcoinandether.\nSee also:Hacker Exploits Flaw in Decentralized Bitcoin Exchange Bisq to Steal $250K\nThe network relies on miners to submit price data collected from a series of oracles and APIs to keep stablecoin prices pegged to their fiat equivalents. Each block requires up to 50 data points, and the protocol discards the 25 submissions furthest away from the total average. Most use the third to fourth default sources, but miners are also able to submit their own arbitrary values.\n“WhoSoup” told CoinDesk this isn’t normally a problem as the system works to incentivize miners – with a block reward – to submit price data in line with those of other submissions.\nRelated:Stablecoins Aren’t Inflating Crypto Market, Study Concludes\nOver Discord, the developer explained the miners essentially performed a form of 51 percent attack by submitting 35 of the top 50 price submissions, skewing the average in their favor and meaning that the remaining 15 price submissions were discarded as outliers.\nWith the fake exchange rate, the miners converted the inflated pJPY into pUSD so the overall wallet balance rose from $11 worth of pJPY tokens to well over 6.7 million pUSD which, assuming accurate price data, should be worth $6.7 million.\nTuesday’s attack lasted about 20 minutes and apparently did not affect other users’ funds.\nDavid Johnston, who as well as being Factom Inc. chairman is also one of the main figures behind PegNet, told CoinDesk that group had no control over transactions and conversion of other users, but could only confirm price data. “This attacker seems to have only affected the **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [9663.18, 9924.52, 9650.17, 9341.71, 8820.52, 8784.49, 8672.46, 8599.51, 8562.45, 8869.67, 8787.79, 8755.25, 9078.76, 9122.55, 8909.95, 8108.12, 7923.64, 7909.73, 7911.43, 4970.79, 5563.71, 5200.37, 5392.31, 5014.48, 5225.63, 5238.44, 6191.19, 6198.78, 6185.07, 5830.25, 6416.31, 6734.80, 6681.06, 6716.44, 6469.80, 6242.19, 5922.04, 6429.84, 6438.64, 6606.78, 6793.62, 6733.39, 6867.53, 6791.13, 7271.78, 7176.41, 7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

Bitmainsaid Tuesdaythat buyers of its AntMiner S17+ and T17+ devices with delivery dates between mid-February and the end of April will receive coupons worth from $17 to $272 per unit – a move that reflects the lasting impact of last month’s crash inbitcoinprices and the expected mining revenue drop due to bitcoin’s halving event in May. See also:Bitcoin Halving, Explained Related:New York Power Plant Sells 30% of Its Bitcoin Mining Hashrate to Institutional Buyers For instance, for buyers who received their AntMiner S17+ pre-orders in late March, Bitmain will compensate them with coupons worth around $240 per unit. For those who have received or will receive their AntMiner S17+ throughout April, the partial refund will be around $270. The coupons, which can only be used when purchasing additional goods at Bitmain, also signal tougher market conditions for the sales of mining equipment currently – a factor likely to decrease Bitmain’s revenue and increase liabilities on its balance sheet. For context, Bitmain typically sells its newest miners based on a pre-order model, with customers paying full retail price upfront for a delivery that will take place usually two or three months later.

As an example, Bitmain was advertising a price of $1,567 per unit for the AntMiner S17+ earlier this month (although some resellers at the time were already quoting a price of around $1,300).

The upcoming rainy season brings excessive hydropower, making electricity cheap and mining more profitable \x85 all else equal. This year, however, two key variables have changed, upending the calculus for operators of mining facilities and for miners themselves in the world\x92s hub for this activity. After recovering from March\x92s brutal selloff, bitcoin\x92s price has been stagnating around $7,000. As a result, mining farms that offer hosting services are struggling to find enough customers to fill capacity. Related: Bitcoin Rallies 10% Ahead of CME April Futures Expiration Further, the standstill comes just before the network\x92s halving event, due in less than 20 days, which will put further pressure on revenues in the multibillion-dollar bitcoin mining industry. Read also: Bitcoin\x92s Halving, Explained . The situation presents a conundrum for miners: whether to buy new, more powerful equipment; and if not, when to switch off older models, and when to switch them on again. The winning move will depend on how things play out after the halving, which is far from certain. \x93If bitcoin\x92s price doesn\x92t go up post-halving, then who\x92s going to buy new equipment to fulfill this capacity?\x94 said Huang Fangyu, co-founder of ValarHash , the company behind the mining pool 1THash, which owns facilities primarily for self-mining in Sichuan and sells cloud mining contracts. 20 percent off Related: Arctos Inks $1M Sale and Leaseback Deal With Bitcoin Miner Blockware As they game out the scenarios, miners at least enjoy a glut of space to host their machines. Mining facilities in China\x92s water-abundant southwestern provinces during the summer are offering electricity prices for as much as 20 percent lower than what they did last year in order to attract investors, industry experts say. Research firm CoinShares estimated in a December report that China accounted for 65 percent of bitcoin\x92s global computing power and the southwestern Sichuan province alone accounted for over 50 percent of the network\x92s total. Story continues Huang said based on his observations, the average offer by facilities for hosting services now ranges between 0.2 to 0.22 yuan ($0.028 to $0.031) per kilowatt-hour (kWh). He estimates it could go below the lower end when the rainy season starts in May and June. Charles Chao Yu, chief operating officer at the mining pool F2Pool, also said this year\x92s offer is certainly in the neighborhood of $0.031 per kWh following last month\x92s price crash as mining farms have to lower their margin to compete for customers. For context, the average electricity cost last year in China\x92s mountainous Sichuan and Yunnan provinces was between 0.24 and 0.25 yuan , around $0.035 per kWh. A seemingly negligible difference of even just 0.01 yuan, or $0.0014, makes all the difference for bitcoin mining. For a site that runs a capacity of 100 megawatt-hour (mWh), that difference would mean a daily cost saving of $3,360 and over $100,000 per month. At a time when bitcoin mining\x92s block reward is about to drop from 12.5 units per block to 6.25 in less than 20 days, saving on electricity would be as important as using more efficient mining equipment. China-based mining pool Poolin recently conducted a survey to scope out mining farms with hydro-power resources in China\x92s southwest regions. Poolin\x92s co-founder Chris Zhu Fa said based on the firm\x92s calculation, there will be 3 to 5 gigawatt-hours (GWh) of capacity during the summer this year with about 1 GWh that he believes is reliable in terms of pricing and qualification. Huang estimates mining facilities in Sichuan overall have a capacity of about 4 GWh while Yunnan has about 2 GWh. A complex equation Bitcoin mining\x92s total average computing power has recently climbed to 113 million terahashes per second (TH/s), a rebound following a 16 percent drop last month. Assuming all of this computing power comes from widely used machines in the market like the WhatsMiner M20S, which has an average efficiency of 50 watt per TH/s, the total network could be consuming around 6 gigawatt of electricity worldwide in an hour. (For context , that is roughly what 600 U.S. households consumed in 2018.) But if bitcoin\x92s price remains at its current level of $7,000 after halving, older mining equipment is expected to shut down, which would lead to decrease of the network\x92s hashing power, making it even harder for farms that need customers to fulfill their capacity. That said, bitcoin mining is a dynamic market and game theory comes into play. If bitcoin mining\x92s competition and total hashrate drop after the halving resulting from some operators shutting down older models, then those who stick around would be able to receive more mined coins, resulting in older models to come online again. \x93It would be normal to see bitcoin network\x92s hashrate drop to 60 to 70 million TH/s after halving,\x94 said Liu Fei, who manages self-mining facilities at Chinese bitcoin startup Bixin, during a recent online panel hosted by Chinese crypto media ODaily. \x93But when the mining competition drops in June, with mining farms offering more electricity promotions and sourcing second hand equipment to fulfill their capacities, we may see the hashrate go back to 100-120 million TH/s again,\x94 he said. Buying spree cools But what\x92s underneath these dynamics is the fact that the buying spree for new unused and more powerful equipment has cooled down, which is different from the situation last year and also one factor that leads to mining farms\x92 challenges in on-boarding enough customers. For instance, at this time last year, bitcoin\x92s mining hashrate was not even 50 million TH/s. Bitcoin\x92s price, although lower than what is right now, was on an upward trend. These factors drove demand for new mining equipment to outstrip manufacturers\x92 supplies, boosting the network\x92s hashrate to 100 million TH/s by the end of December. Then came the coronavirus outbreak, and eventually the March market meltdown. \x93The March 12 sell-off also caused a lack of confidence among investors in purchasing new equipment at a large scale,\x94 Liu said. \x93So it\x92s likely going to be a game for existing inventories during the entire summer season.\x94 Valarhash\x92s Huang echoed that sentiment. \x93The hashrate after halving will drop to a point that older miners like the AntMiner S9 could become profitable again with electricity promotions by mining farms,\x94 he said. \x93Then the hashrate will go up and some will have to turn off again. That will be a headache.\x94 And the last month\x92s sell-off also forced liquidations by many miner operators who had pledged bitcoin for loans, leaving many short on cash at the moment, Huang said. Thus, at this point, investors are taking a step back to wait and see how the market will react after halving before they spend money on new equipment. \x91Selling iron\x92 But as mining facilities struggle to sign customers, others may see opportunities in the secondhand market as older mining equipment is being sold at unprecedentedly cheap prices. For instance, distributors on Alibaba.com are advertising used AntMiner S9s in the secondhand market for $20 to $80 per unit, depending on their conditions. At the height of the crypto market\x92s 2017 craze, a single unit of AntMiner S9 could cost over $3,000. \x93Now it\x92s like selling iron with mining chips as a giveaway,\x94 Huang said. \x93But those that have the access to extremely cheap electricity during the summer could still accumulate such stocks to either make a quick buck in the summer or to fulfill unused electricity at mining facilities.\x94 To be sure, at the bitcoin network\x92s current difficulty and price, the AntMiner S9 could still yield a gross margin of just under 50 percent at an electricity cost of $0.03 per kWh. If bitcoin\x92s price remains at the current level after halving, S9s could still be marginally profitable once mining competition declines. And the option is available for miner operators to lower the voltage for these older models in order to improve their profitability. \x93It all boils down to the price of bitcoin,\x94 Huang said. \x93If it goes back to $10,000, problem solved. Almost every machine can go back running again.\x94 Related Stories Negative Oil Prices Could Hurt Bitcoin Miners Who Use Flared Gas Crypto Long & Short: The Battle of the Yields', 'Spring is usually a welcome time of year for bitcoin mining businesses in China.

The winning move will depend on how things play out after the halving, which is far from certain.\n“If bitcoin’s price doesn’t go up post-halving, then who’s going to buy new equipment to fulfill this capacity?” said Huang Fangyu, co-founder ofValarHash, the company behind the mining pool 1THash, which owns facilities primarily for self-mining in Sichuan and sells cloud min **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [9924.52, 9650.17, 9341.71, 8820.52, 8784.49, 8672.46, 8599.51, 8562.45, 8869.67, 8787.79, 8755.25, 9078.76, 9122.55, 8909.95, 8108.12, 7923.64, 7909.73, 7911.43, 4970.79, 5563.71, 5200.37, 5392.31, 5014.48, 5225.63, 5238.44, 6191.19, 6198.78, 6185.07, 5830.25, 6416.31, 6734.80, 6681.06, 6716.44, 6469.80, 6242.19, 5922.04, 6429.84, 6438.64, 6606.78, 6793.62, 6733.39, 6867.53, 6791.13, 7271.78, 7176.41, 7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32, 7117.21] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

Speaking on Google Hangouts, AVA Labs COO Kevin Sekniqi told CoinDesk the company was focusing its energies on a new grants program, made available through its venture arm, AVA X, that will provide financing of up to $250,000 to selected projects building with its technology. AVA has earmarked a “pretty substantial” amount of cash for projects and initiatives that build out the ecosystem, Sekniqi said. Half of AVA Labs’ allocation of mainnet tokens – with a value “in the many millions of dollars” – would also be available to selected projects as grants, he added.

Founded by Cornell Professor Emin Gun Sirer, who has previously worked on a scaling solution for bitcoin , AVA had been in private testnet for over a year. It originally had been slated for launch as early as December but this was pushed back until April. The project is now aiming for a full launch sometime in July, according to its roadmap . Since the public testnet launch earlier this month, Sekniqi said the team had been in dialogue with at least five projects interested in applying for grants. See also: Multi-Chain DeFi Protocol Raises $750K in Token Sale With Framework Ventures Related: Market Wrap: Oil Rebounds As Crypto Makes Gains, Especially Ether This sudden ramping up in grants comes as AVA solidifies in the approach to launch. It’s even started to proselytize, offering its own vision of what the nascent decentralized finance (DeFi) space should start to look like going forward. “There is nothing about [DeFi], to be totally honest with you, that is decentralized,” Sekniqi said, as evidenced by the reality of hacks like the attack on dForce at the weekend . DeFi, he added, is just as susceptible to fallible people and relationships built on trust as traditional finance. Story continues However, debates about decentralization detract from DeFi’s real killer app: the compatibility and programmability of capital and new financial products, according to Sekniqi. “Ethereum has effectively shown that there huge power in composability and if you do make financial products standardized then you can compose them in all kinds of new and interesting ways that we’ve never thought of before,” he said. Left to its own devices, DeFi would only rediscover all the “basic instruments that have been known about for many years” in traditional finance. Changing the narrative from decentralization and toward “programmable capital” will attract “finance guys” with the knowledge and experience to realize its potential, he said. “In mainstream finance you may have corporate bonds but they’re not composable with anything else, it’s very much siloed and very much fragmented,” Sekniqi said. “DeFi is really all about the composability of these financial products” – allowing different assets to interact with one another in a frictionless manner, sometimes for the very first time. See also: Crypto Long & Short: DeFi and Traditional Finance Are Forming an Unlikely Friendship AVA Labs may appear like the sort of tech firm found all along the Pacific Coast of the U.S., but its base is in Brooklyn, N.Y., not far from Wall Street. Speaking to CoinDesk earlier this year, Sekniqi said there were even tentative plans to move the office to lower Manhattan so they could be just a stone’s throw away from the global financial hub. As well as the grants program, AVA is running hackathons for students, some specifically aimed at building new applications for finance. The company plans to invite some “very influential” financial experts, many from outside the blockchain space, to judge which products have the most utility. One such event, announced Thursday, will offer $50,000 in cash prizes to students able to build infrastructure tools, identify and fix bugs, or develop “new applications for financial products and services.” Through grants and hackathons, Sekniqi said AVA hopes to conduct a “brain merge” that will bring those in traditional finance and blockchain together. See also: Morgan Creek Invests in Startup Bringing Bitcoin to DeFi CoinDesk asked whether AVA was necessary to this process: do suited Wall Street bankers and hoodie-wearing DeFi developers really need someone to act as matchmaker? “I don’t personally know of financial experts that are currently working on Defi … it’s just lots of innovative technologists,” Sekniqi replied, suggesting that the lack of a charismatic Steve Jobs-like figure meant DeFi may have initially struggled to combine its community of like-minded souls with established businesses. Whatever the reason, the fact of the matter is “nobody else is doing this right now,” he said, adding that if AVA doesn’t intervene now, there’s a danger companies in both the DeFi and traditional finance spaces will continue to miss out on some crucial opportunities to collaborate.

It is now trading above the $8,830 level of resistance- turned-support which could signal an upcoming move towards the $9,200 level. The move to the upside was reflected across all global markets as the Dow Jones enjoyed its largest one-day gain since 2009 with a 5.5% hike. If Bitcoin breaks back below the $8,830 level in the coming days it will demonstrate bullish exhaustion which in turn will cause continuation to the downside. Much of the upcoming price action will depend on the extent of the coronavirus outbreak. Shockwaves have been sent across the globe with cases rapidly increasing in mainland Europe. The impact on supply chains will undoubtedly affect global markets while Bitcoin’s mining infrastructure will also face disruption as much of it is based in China. Despite Bitcoin mining being automated, it requires ongoing electricity and maintenance, both of which could be become compromised if major services in China begin to be switched off. Bitcoin and gold are often considered to be hedges to the traditional financial system. In that sense the value could in fact rise if global markets continue to slide as investors seek a ‘safe haven’ asset. For more news, guides and cryptocurrency analysis, click here .

To date, no one knows who this person, or people, are. Story continues The paper outlined a method of using a P2P network for electronic transactions without “relying on trust”. On January 3 2009, the Bitcoin network came into existence. Nakamoto mined block number “0” (or the “genesis block”), which had a reward of 50 Bitcoins.

Paolo Ardoino, who is also the CTO of Tether’s sister company, crypto exchange Bitfinex, told CoinDesk this is part of the reason he has been working with the team behind the token wrapper project, pTokens, to develop an interoperability bridge between the Bitcoin and EOS networks. Launching Friday, the company will initially support a bitcoin wrapper on the EOS mainnet – pBTC. Essentially, a user will be able to deposit funds in one network, say Bitcoin, and pToken will issue the user the equivalent amount of “wrapped” tokens on the new network. The company hopes to support a bridge between litecoin and EOS , as well as EOS and ethereum . Related: First Mover: Ether Trounces Bitcoin as Network Sees Surge in Stablecoins An EOS wrapper for a tether ERC20 token is currently being planned, according to pTokens’ website. Founder Thomas Bertani told CoinDesk there were no plans yet to consider developing an EOS wrapper for tether on Omni, a secondary layer on top of the Bitcoin protocol. See also: Tether CTO Claims USDT Stablecoin Can Boost DeFi Liquidity A key benefit of interoperability is users can better leverage the different characteristics of different blockchains, Ardoino said. One of the initial reasons Tether created an ERC20 version in 2017 was so it could sidestep the congested Bitcoin network. “Omni was costing a lot of money, up to $500, Ethereum wasn’t so saturated, so the fees were cheap. Every trader would have preferred to move the funds onto the Ethereum blockchain because it was cheaper and faster,” Ardoino said. Related: Libra’s Long Road From a Facebook Lab to the Global Stage: A Timeline Ethereum speeds slowed due to network congestion by the end of 2017, however. Creating an interoperability bridge between it and EOS – which has higher throughput and much less chain activity – essentially provides users with a “backup” option, so they can continue to trade with minimal fees and quick settlement times, he claimed. Story continues Many crypto exchanges, including Bitfinex, already offer users two different types of tether, so the ability to swap between protocols already exists in some form. However, interoperability bridges make it easier for users themselves to move between the different protocols. Ardoino foresees Bitfinex and Tether will continue to perform chain swaps. Major exchanges looking to swap $10 million worth of tether between two chains will always be able to organize it with them directly, he said. But, he added, greater interoperability will allow retail investors with smaller amounts of tether to also shift freely between the different blockchains. See also: Tether Stablecoin Launches on Its Seventh Blockchain Ardoino hopes his involvement with pTokens might encourage other developers to build bridges to other protocols, creating greater connections between all the different chains.

The Hangzhou, China-based firm aims to raise up to $100 million from an initial public offering (IPO) in the U.S., according to an April 24 filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The Chinese firm would be listed under the ticker symbol EBON on the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq. Loop Capital Markets in Chicago and AMTD Global Markets in Hong Kong are the underwriters on the deal. This is Ebang\x92s second attempt to go public after it failed to do so on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange (HKEX) in June 2018. The target proceeds from that would-be IPO were estimated to be $1 billion. Related: Chinese City Known for Bitcoin Mining Seeks Blockchain Firms to Burn Excess Hydropower Founded in 2010, Ebang is among the earliest China-based hardware companies, such as Bitmain and Canaan Creative, to make application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) chips and fabless integrated circuits (ICs) for bitcoin mining machines. Chinese miners contribute over 65 percent of the computing power on the Bitcoin network. Ebang generates over 82 percent of its revenue from making bitcoin miners. It raked in $109 million in revenue last year, down nearly 66 percent from 2018. Its net loss for 2019 more than tripled to $41.1 million, according to the filing. The firm confidentially filed for the IPO in February without disclosing pricing terms, according to Renaissance Capital . Second chances Ebang is one of several crypto companies that failed to launch an IPO in Hong Kong and later came to the U.S. for another shot. Related: The Rise of ASICs: A Step-by-Step History of Bitcoin Mining Rival bitcoin miner makers Bitmain and Canaan Creative tried to go public on HKEX but their plans fell through because local regulators were reluctant to allow any crypto-related company listings. Story continues Canaan later managed to launch its IPO on Nasdaq last December. Huobi Group, one of the top crypto exchanges by volume, acquired a Hong Kong-based electronics manufacturer last year in a bid to get listed through a reverse takeover . However, the process has been put on hold due to strict mergers-and-acquisitions regulations. Risk factors While Ebang is unsure of what impact the upcoming halving in May would have on bitcoin\x92s price, the firm sees ever-changing regulations in China, potential sharp drops in the price and the COVID-19 pandemic as substantial risk factors for its revenue streams, according to the filing. \x93The significant drop in the bitcoin price is expected to have a negative effect on the value of our bitcoin mining machine inventory and incentivize us to increase credit sales,\x94 the firm said in the filing, referring to the March market crash. The Chinese government once planned to phase out crypto mining businesses and did not change the provision until several months ago. Varying policies from different provinces also pose a challenge for bitcoin miners. For example, Xinjiang, an autonomous region in northwest China, one of the main areas that offer cheap electricity for mining farms, warned local mining enterprises that were operating illegally to close their operations befor **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [9341.71, 8820.52, 8784.49, 8672.46, 8599.51, 8562.45, 8869.67, 8787.79, 8755.25, 9078.76, 9122.55, 8909.95, 8108.12, 7923.64, 7909.73, 7911.43, 4970.79, 5563.71, 5200.37, 5392.31, 5014.48, 5225.63, 5238.44, 6191.19, 6198.78, 6185.07, 5830.25, 6416.31, 6734.80, 6681.06, 6716.44, 6469.80, 6242.19, 5922.04, 6429.84, 6438.64, 6606.78, 6793.62, 6733.39, 6867.53, 6791.13, 7271.78, 7176.41, 7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32, 7117.21, 7429.72, 7550.90] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

Announcing the news on Monday, HIVE said it is acquiring a 30 megawatts (MW) bitcoin mining facility from Cryptologic Corp for about CA$ 4 million (~US$2.8 million) in Quebec. HIVE currently has ether mining facilities in Sweden and Iceland. The firm said the acquisition would more than double its total available power capacity globally to approximately 50 MW. “This is an important strategic acquisition for HIVE that diversifies our business significantly, and we are making it at an opportune time at an attractive valuation for our shareholders,” said Frank Holmes, interim executive chairman of HIVE. “The acquisition provides us with an advanced, operating Bitcoin mining facility ready to transition to next generation mining hardware with access to some of the lowest cost electricity on the planet. The cost of US$95,000 per MW is less than half the industry standard build cost per MW.” In a separate announcement, Cryptologic Corp said it is selling all the shares of its wholly-owned subsidiary Quebec Inc. to HIVE. The 30 MW facility includes approximately 14,000 Bitmain S9 miners. HIVE said due to the facility’s low electricity prices, these miners generate positive gross mining margins under current market conditions. The acquisition remains subject to customary closing conditions, including receipt of regulatory approvals. It is expected to close on the date that is the later of April 3 and the date that is two business days after the date that the TSX Venture Exchange provides conditional approval of the transaction, per the announcement. The news comes at a time when bitcoin's mining difficulty , an indicator of competition among bitcoin miners, has seen the second-largest decline in the network’s history.

A late afternoon pullback saw Bitcoin fall back through the first major resistance level to sub-$7,500 and into the red. Finding late support, however, Bitcoin moved back through to $7,500 to end the day in the green. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from $10,000 levels to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was another mixed day on Saturday. Tezos led the way once more, rallying by 5.21%.

A bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin rise from an early morning low $7,522.3 to a high $7,573.5. Story continues Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day. Bitcoin Cash ABC (+1.12%), Bitcoin Cash SV (+2.14%), Monero’s XMR (+1.34%), and Tron’s TRX (+1.16%) led the way. Binance Coin (-0.11%), Stellar’s Lumen (-0.02%), and Tezos (-1.18%) struggled early on. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through to $7,600 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $7,675.67 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from the morning high $7,573.5. Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high $7,700 would likely cap any upside. In the event of a breakout, the 38.2% FIB of $7,730 and the second major resistance level at $7,812.83 would likely come into play. Failure to move through to $7,600 levels could see Bitcoin hit reverse. A fall through to sub-$7,560 levels would bring the first major support level at $7,425.67 into play. Barring a crypto meltdown, however, Bitcoin should steer of the second major support level at $7,312.83.

The technology entrepreneur said he agrees with White House Coronavirus Task Force lead member Anthony Fauci\'s timeline of 12 to 18 months for mass-producing a vaccine. "It\'s very hard to compress these timeframes," he added, saying that the phase three trials, which determine if the drug has harmful side effects, will take time. Gates also called for a phased reopening of the country, starting with schools and critical businesses, with social distancing and safety equipment guidelines in place. Otherwise, the pandemic could worsen, he warned. Why It Matters The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has backed Inovio Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: INO ) and six other COVID-19 vaccine candidates as part of its 0 million fund for efforts against the pandemic. Inovio chief executive officer Joseph Kim said last week it\'s possible for its vaccine candidate to be ready in 12 to 18 months. Moderna Inc.

What Happened Nvidia is urging users of gaming personal computers (PCs) to fight COVID-19. The computer hardware companytweetedon Saturday, “Join us and our friends at @OfficialPCMR in supporting folding@home and donating unused GPU computing power to fight against COVID-19!” The folding@home app has a number of graphics processing unit (GPU) specific projects, which gaming PC users can contribute by just downloading the application. PCMR, a community of PC enthusiasts, describes the concept behind the app, “You can install a small program on your computer, and it downloads a small amount of data that it analyses, then returning the results to the Stanford researchers.” The website claims that the whole process only takes 3 minutes. Folding@home will work on COVID-19, but they also focus on cancer, Alzheimer’s, Huntington’s, and Parkinson’s diseases. Why It Matters The initial “wave of projects” will help researchers get a better understanding of coronaviruses and how they interact with the human ACE-2 receptor, which is required for viral entry into human host cells. In an update regarding COVID-19 and their efforts to fight the disease, folding@home announced, “In the coming days, we hope to take advantage of some of the new structural biology and biochemical data that is being rapidly released by researchers around the world who are working to understand these viruses and strategies for defeating them.” Price Action Nvidia shares traded 11.34% higher at $240.84 on Friday in the regular session.

American economist Barry Eichengreen, who was an IMF policy adviser in the late 1990s, said in a blog post Saturday with fellow academic Ganesh Viswanath-Natraj that emergency protections found in the revised libra white paper were similar to the clearinghouse certificates the U.S. used to prevent bank runs prior to the establishment of the Federal Reserve in 1913. It isn’t obvious whether the Fed would step in to help the proposed currency in an emergency to act as a lender of last resort, write Eichengreen and Viswanath-Natraj. Libra’s white paper instead proposes the network operators could issue “redemption stays” to prevent funds being taken out of the Libra Reserve – the reserve of real assets that underpin libra’s value – or charge additional penalties to those still wanting early redemption.

Demand for Paxos Gold (PAXG) and Tether Gold (XAUT), two of the most liquid gold-backed token projects, has surged this week. Both blockchain-backed tokens each represent a legal entitlement to one ounce of gold stored in institutional vaults. Both tokens are redeemable for physical gold. The uptick in demand comes as traditional gold suppliers face shortages and difficulties in bringing physical bullion to the market, according to reports . Related: Geopolitical Crisis May Benefit Oil, Gold and CBDCs, Not Bitcoin “The Fed completely changed the rules – the real rate of interest swung even more and so we are seeing all that money flow into gold immediately,” Roy Sebag, founder of metals custodian Goldmoney, said regarding the Federal Reserve in a phone interview with CoinDesk on Tuesday. Read more: Bitcoin and Gold: Evaluating Hard-Cap Currencies in Times of Financial Crisis Purchases of new PAXG – which represent one ounce of London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) institutional-grade gold – have nearly doubled day-over-day since Monday, according to Paxos spokesperson Becky McClain. Paxos said Thursday it had enough gold to cover current volumes. On the other hand, demand for Tether’s offering led to the XAUT market cap hitting $50 million on Wednesday, according to data provider Nomics. Yet supply-chain issues in sourcing the gold itself could hinder further issuance of the token, according to The Block . Related: Stocks, Bitcoin Rally on Prospects for US Senate Stimulus Bill “XAUT simply represents a new and technologically innovative way for people to hold gold without annual fees,” Tether told CoinDesk in a statement, declining to comment on daily market movements. “We have seen strong growth for XAUT and we anticipate XAUT will continue to grow as it establishes itself as the dominant digital token representing gold ownership.” Story continues Trade volume for both tokens has also increased in recent days, according to market data from Nomics and CoinMarketCap. “We’ve all seen unprecedented volatility in the markets the past few weeks, so naturally people are looking to safe havens like gold,” Paxos executive Walter Hessert told CoinDesk. “As a blockchain-based token, it also offers holders the greatest level of control and accessibility outside the financial system.” Price premium An increase in demand for physical gold paired with supply chain issues for sourcing the precious metal has increased the price per ounce. Bloomberg reported earlier this week the price of gold futures spiked against the price of gold in a premium not seen in over 40 years due to the inability to settle contracts physically in New York City as COVID-19 spreads. Gold-backed crypto tokens currently hold a premium for traditional trading of both spot and futures gold markets on exchanges such as FTX. However, current prices could be a continuation of past premiums held by gold-backed tokens, according to CoinDesk Research. Indeed, PAXG and XAUT have consistently held above the spot price of gold since their inceptions. XAUT launched in January 2020 ; PAXG launched in September 2019 . Read more: Bitcoin Is a Safe Haven for a Worse Storm Than This Still, traders are looking for small denominations of gold, which are becoming more and more difficult to find, Sebag said. “Something changed in the last few days. Not a lack of physical gold, but denomination problems,” Sebag said. “Definitely a shortage.” Paxos said the increased demand for PAXG is not leading to the supply constraints reportedly seen by Tether. “We’re only dealing with London LBMA gold, and there is plenty of metal there! Benefits of being a trusted, regulated player – we can get access to that market unlike anyone else,” McClain said.

I live on the second floor and rent out the first floor). After lots of research and DD I was convinced to give it a try. In late December ending up purchasing a Bitmain S17 miner off eBay for $1,900 with the goal of having it operational by the start of 2020. I had (2) 220v outlets installed in my basement near my work bench for $330 and I was ready to roll. \n\nLet me say that the initial setup and start up period was quite difficult. It was tough to find good resources to assist so it was mostly a trial by fire experience. It also doesn’t help that Bitmain is a Chinese company. \n\nI also learned very quickly that these miners are extremely noisy and emit a high frequency sound due to the fan speed. This became a big issue right away because the sound was noticeably loud not only in my tenants apartment but I could also hear it upstairs in mine! The complaints started almost immediately. I thought I was screwed. \n\nI attempted to install insulation and some sound panels in the ceiling of the basement but that barely made a dent to the noise levels. After several more attempts at sound proofing, I ended up making a sound proof box below my work bench out of sound panels ordered off amazon. I kept the front open with a door and the back vented. This helped the sound levels tremendously. I also ended up purchasing (2) larger computer fans which I placed at the front and back of the box for increased air movement. Keep in mind that the hotter the miner, the faster the fan speed on the machine. \n\nFrom an operating standpoint, I purchased a WiFi extender with an Ethernet port for the miner which has worked pretty well. Although I did have frequent disconnections especially at the beginning. This was rough because when the miner disconnects the fan speed will increase to 5000rpm and is very noisy. It also takes a minimum of 5 minutes to reconnect to the agent and settle the miner down. That doesn’t seem like a lot of time until you and your tenant are forced to listen to a high frequency pitch for minutes on end. \n\nI went with BTC.com for my miner pool. I am currently running the agent software on my laptop upstairs in my apartment. A designated desktop computer would definitely be ideal here, but currently I don’t have it setup as such. Again a lot of troubleshooting up front on getting the miner to sync to the pool but the pool seems OK now. \n\nI am currently running the miner on low power and am producing roughly 43TH/s daily. This equates to a payout of about .005 BTC every 7-8 days. My plan is to set the miner on either standard or turbo mode in the summer once the house AC units are running and the noise is less of a factor. \n\nMy electric costs going into the year were .071kw/hr. I think they may have increased slightly though more recently. \n\nSo through end of April (4 months) with extensive trial and error and extended downtimes in the beginning, I have been able to generate approximately .076 BTC (about $600 for those counting at home). Obviously you need to deduct electricity costs to get your true profit. Here is a recap of my total costs to date\n\nMiner: $1,900 \nElectric upgrades: $330 \nWiFi extender, comp fans and Ethernet cords: $125\nSound Panels: $130\nTotal all in: $2,485\n\n\nFor me I’m less concerned about the current profitability and more focused on where I see BTC going in the future and being able to consistently accumulate outside of regular purchases through an exchange. For instance, I see that same .076 being worth $7,600 in the next two years. That’s a $100,000 price target btw. \n\nIt’s also been important for me to maximize the up time of the miner and squeeze as much out of it as I can before the halving next month. For now I am planning to continue mining after the halving unless BTC price falls below $5,000 then I may go offline until price can recover. \n\nAll and all, if you are interested in getting into mining be prepared to spend lots of time learning and testing workable methods once you get started. Also be prepared to deal with the noise levels and friends thinking your crazy. BTC mining is much more extensive than plugging in an ASIC and forgetting about it. For most people, purchasing BTC through an exchange is more than sufficient to accumulate BTC. Certainly less of a headache! I will say though that through all the trial and error this year, I am happy with the position I’m in now and think I am at a point where I can manage the miner well and keep it going consistently.', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/g9e9zj/my_2020_btc_mining_experience/', 'g9e9zj', [['u/lsucadien', 10, '2020-04-28 04:53', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/g9e9zj/my_2020_btc_mining_experience/fot1ax8/', "Some serious cognitive dissonance in this post.

The tech report says commercial usage of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) is becoming increasingly prevalent in today’s society in applications ranging from consumer deliveries to emergency response to transporting medicines and organs for transplant. However, logistics relating to the safe management of swarms of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) as well as air traffic management and reliable operations near “high-risk” areas such as crowded areas or airports are proving problematic. That’s where the tracing and tracking of individual drones via the blockchain can make a difference, the DoT says. Related: Chinese City Known for Bitcoin Mining Seeks Blockchain Firms to Burn Excess Hydropower “Blockchain technology is being looked on to deliver a framework that can be used by stakeholders in the commercial drone industry, as it can ensure security and provide for identity management as well as providing a supporting role in aircraft traffic management, UAS conflict management and flight authorization,” according to the report. See also: Drone Data Service to Create Blockchain-Based Black Box In certain instances, blockchain technology could be used to address particular trust and integrity issues when it comes to drone systems, too. Flight data recorders (black boxes), for example, provide data to help investigators understand what a UAV was doing before an incident occurred, similar to those installed in all aircraft in the airline industry. A blockchain-based flight recorder, or “ black box ,” could enable law enforcement to be proactive in monitoring drones’ flight patterns in real time, providing the information to help navigate around a perceived threat or incident. It could also help industry regulators track and review drone flight data to make smarter decisions about the safest route to a particular destination.

The cryptocurrency exchange said Friday the new Binance Smart Chain (BSC) would work as a smart contract layer running parallel to its existing Binance Chain. The new blockchain, it said, would have a new consensus mechanism and would be capable of fast trade executions designed to combine fast confirmation times with strong on-chain governance. Although Binance does not explicitly state BSC would be a rival to Ethereum, and the company stressed to CoinDesk this was not the company’s intent, the white paper hints the new smart contract layer could perform better on several key metrics. Related: Market Wrap: Ether Making Big Gains as Stablecoins Proliferate on Ethereum For one thing, its low latency platform will have faster execution times. For another, its consensus mechanism – a hybrid of EOS’ delegated proof of stake (dPoS) system and a proof of authority (PoA) system – is designed to be more efficient and environmentally friendly than Ethereum’s proof of work (PoW). (It’s worth noting that Ethereum is moving to PoS soon, via an upgrade informally dubbed Ethereum 2.0.) Watch: Vitalik Buterin Explains the New Tech Behind Eth 2.0 Furthermore, in a statement to CoinDesk, a spokesperson said BSC was designed to ensure dapps could scale while still running on a high-performance layer to ensure a “fast and smooth user experience.” That might give an edge over Ethereum, where scalability limitations have sometimes created bottlenecks leading to soaring transaction fees and extended confirmation times. Indeed, popular game CryptoKitties quickly became so popular that it managed to put a strain on the network. Binance, which only moved its token Binance Coin off Ethereum in 2019, denied wants to challenge the original “world computer,” however. Story continues Related: Coinbase Custody Doubles Down on DeFi Governance Options On the contrary, the Binance spokesperson said the two would complement one another in growing the blockchain ecosystem: “The industry needs more high-performance infrastructures, not just one single blockchain.” Binance also wants to make BSC fully compatible with Ethereum. As it says in its white paper, it would give the new smart contract layer direct access to an ecosystem filled with “relatively mature applications and community.” One of the main problems that have beset other smart contract protocols is it can be devilishly difficult to convince existing dapps to move away from Ethereum. The process can be long and complicated: developer teams have to familiarize themselves with a new protocol and codebase. At the end of it, there’s no guarantee existing users will follow them onto the new chain. See also: ‘They Have the Users’: Binance CEO Explains Why He Bought CoinMarketCap But by building a door straight into Ethereum, Binance could be looking to smooth the path making it easier for projects to switch protocols. As the exchange says in its white paper, being fully compatible means “most of the [Ethereum] dApps, ecosystem components, and toolings will work with BSC and require zero or minimum changes.” There have, of course, been other contenders for the mantel of “Ethereum Killer,” but Binance’s innovation may be less the potential high-performance capability of the platform and more that it has minimized the risk for dapps migrating onto a new chain. Maybe BSC’s de facto motto should be: “What have you got to lose?” EDIT (April. 18 , 11:25 UTC ): A previous version of this article said Binance Smart Chain had a matching engine, this has since been corrected.

Persistent concerns about privacy, weak consumer adoption, and the lack of a coordinated government effort on testing could all pose obstacles to the companies’ push. Some governments have already struck out on their own, building systems used by millions without needing Apple and Google’s help.\nThe tech giants’ plan involves updating the software on billions of phones so consumers can use wireless technology to track who they come into contact with. If a person notifies the system that they have Covid-19, people who have been near them -- based on their device’s proximity to others -- would get an alert saying they may be at risk. The plan removes technical problems around interoperability and battery life that were plaguing efforts to build such apps before.\nIt’s one of the most ambitious approaches yet to what’s known as digital contact tracing, a way of using technology to supplement existing systems, which involve health workers manually tracking the disease’s spread. Doctors and other health professionals say that a robust system for keeping tabs on exposure to infected individuals is essential to prevent a resurgence of the pandemic.\nOn Wednesday, the two companies launched updates that will let select developers begin building apps using the tools. A second phase of the project, to be released in the coming months, will have deeper integration with Apple’s iOS and Google’s Android operating systems to rely less on apps.\nThe partnership is unprecedented. Apple and Google are bitter business rivals, and have fought for years to outmaneuver each other in the industries they compete directly in, such as phones and internet browsers, as well as in areas that will unlock the technology of the future, like artificial intelligence. Together, the companies’ phones are used by about a third of the world’s population.\nIn addition to coming together on this project, both companies have donated money and put resources toward other coronavirus-combating initiatives. But the problem may be too big even for the vaunted leaders of the tech industry to conquer.\n“App-based contact tracing is something that has never worked,” said Ross Anderson, a professor of security engineering at the University of Cambridge computer science department in the U.K. “It’s a straw that some people are grasping at out of do-something-itis.”\nAnderson likens the rush to work on contact tracing as similar to other hype-induced tech trends, like artificial intelligence or Bitcoin. It’s worth pointing out that Apple and Google have been eyeing the health-care industry for years, slowly experimenting with ways to push deeper into the lucrative field. Often, they’ve been met with skepticism and questions about privacy safeguards. Winning goodwill with coronavirus projects could help the companies sell health software or devices down the road.\nBut even if you take a less cynical view, there’s only so much Apple and Google can do to help solve the problem. Contact tracing can only ever be part of a broader system that demands intensive and regular testing, something the U.S. so far hasn’t been able to accomplish.\nTesting for Covid-19 needs to become much more accessible so people can know whether they have contracted the disease before they can consider telling an app they’ve got the virus. Even if the Apple-Google system preserves privacy, works accurately and is adopted by enough people, it has to be combined with frequent and widespread testing, as well as expensive manual con **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [8562.45, 8869.67, 8787.79, 8755.25, 9078.76, 9122.55, 8909.95, 8108.12, 7923.64, 7909.73, 7911.43, 4970.79, 5563.71, 5200.37, 5392.31, 5014.48, 5225.63, 5238.44, 6191.19, 6198.78, 6185.07, 5830.25, 6416.31, 6734.80, 6681.06, 6716.44, 6469.80, 6242.19, 5922.04, 6429.84, 6438.64, 6606.78, 6793.62, 6733.39, 6867.53, 6791.13, 7271.78, 7176.41, 7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32, 7117.21, 7429.72, 7550.90, 7569.94, 7679.87, 7795.60, 7807.06, 8801.04] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

German bank BayernLB predicted last year that bitcoin’s halving could drive its price to $90,000 , roughly 12 times the current level. Cryptocurrency markets got a sneak preview on Wednesday as a lesser coin, bitcoin cash (BCH), went through its own halving. Spoiler alert: There wasn’t much to see.

Bitcoin cash prices rose 5.9 percent Wednesday, entirely in line with its trading range on most days. Cryptocurrencies have been volatile since long before the coronavirus hit. Bitcoin climbed 2.3 percent on the day. “In crypto, that’s normal,” Roger Ver, executive chairman of Bitcoin.com and a key proponent of bitcoin cash, said in an audio interview over Telegram from his home in St. Kitts. Related: Profit-Taking Keeps Bitcoin in Tight Range as Fed Reopens Spigot Ver says he hadn’t been expecting much from the event. He’s been around the crypto industry since the early days, and witnessed bitcoin’s halvings in 2012 and 2016. This week’s halving was the first for bitcoin cash, which split off from bitcoin in 2017. “A leap year happens every four years,” Ver said. “Life goes on. Nobody cares. After you’ve been through one leap year, it’s not interesting or exciting anymore.” Story continues The episode offers a dose of reality for crypto-industry newcomers who might be looking forward to something spectacular when bitcoin’s next halving arrives in May. It’s so hotly anticipated that clever web designers have erected pages featuring countdown clocks. As of the latest look, it’ll take place in an estimated 34 days, seven hours and 47 minutes. (On May 13, around 09:25 UTC.) If bitcoin cash’s halving is any guide, there really won’t be much to see. Maybe champagne glasses will clink somewhere, celebrating the passage of another four years of bitcoin’s remarkable existence since it was created in early 2009 atop what is now the world’s largest blockchain network. See CoinDesk Research’s report on the bitcoin halving Bitcoin’s price, currently around $7,300, has climbed 20-fold since the start of 2015, the first full year of historical data from the popular cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase. There were a lot of days between then and now, many of them up, many of them down, and only one of those days in 2016 coincided with a halving. Blockchains like the ones powering bitcoin and bitcoin cash rely on high-speed computer operators and data centers known as “miners,” which collectively process quintillions of computations per second in an effort to maintain and protect the security and integrity of the network. To keep the miners affixed over the long term, according to Ver, “the price only has to double once every four years.” “I’ve always said that the price is the least interesting thing about cryptocurrencies,” Ver said. “The price is just a side effect of the amount of adoption you’re getting in the world.” Four years is quite a span – enough to frustrate investors, analysts and researchers who might prefer to clearly quantify the price impact of past halvings, or of the upcoming halving. Just think back to how much has happened in cryptocurrency markets in the past six months: Chinese President Xi Jinping said the world’s largest economy would “ seize the opportunities ” afforded by blockchain technology. (Bitcoin jumped 12 percent.) The U.S. killed a top Iranian general , threatening to escalate into a war. (Up 10 percent.) The coronavirus came along. (Bitcoin plunged, then recovered , and is now up 2 percent year-to-date.) “The market’s always pricing in everything,” Ver said. With many investors seeing bitcoin as a potential hedge against inflation – a digital and more portable form of gold, as it were – the unprecedented trillions of dollars of coronavirus-related aid and stimulus might ultimately make the halving an afterthought. Unlike the coronavirus, after all, the halving was telegraphed years in advance. Blockware Solutions, which brokers high-speed computers used for cryptocurrency mining, wrote Wednesday in an e-mail that price is “not just supply side economics,” but demand. “Bitcoin has the most robust ecosystem in the blockchain industry, and the fundamentals continuously improve due to the global macro improving sentiment and accelerating demand,” according to the note. The point was that bitcoin watchers shouldn’t draw too many conclusions from bitcoin cash’s halving. Rich Rosenblum, a former managing director of Wall Street firm Goldman Sachs who now oversees markets at the digital-asset trading firm GSR, noted bitcoin cash prices usually trade in sync with bitcoin’s – similar to the way gold and silver prices track, as do oil and gasoline. “The bitcoin halving in a month is going to have more impact on bitcoin cash than the bitcoin cash halving,” he said in a phone interview. Bitcoin cash’s halving took place at 12:19 UTC, when the blockchain network reached block number 630,000. The most immediate impact was also, perhaps, the most visible: The next data block took nearly two hours to close, well beyond the average of about 10 minutes. According to Ver, that probably happened because miners reallocated their computational power toward suddenly more profitable blockchains like Bitcoin and Bitcoin SV. The Bitcoin Cash protocol has a feature that automatically adjusts the difficulty of mining a new data block when there’s a sudden scarcity of miners; the mechanism is designed to lure some back. Block 630,001 took just 16 minutes to close, the data show. Just like adding an extra day to the calendar every four years, these halvings have to happen to make everything work right. So when bitcoin’s halving comes, will it be time to pop the champagne? Why not. Will it be entertaining? Better have YouTube queued up, just in case. Tweet of the day Bitcoin watch BTC : Price: $7,327 ( BPI ) | 24-Hr High: $7,399 | 24-Hr Low: $7,210 Trend : Bitcoin has found acceptance above the three-day 200-candle average and looks set to extend the ongoing rally toward $8,000. That would bring prices back to a level seen ahead of the massive sell-off on March 12. The cryptocurrency is changing hands near $7,312 at press time, while the long-term average is now located at $7,093. As seen on the three-day chart, the bulls repeatedly failed to keep gains above the crucial average in the three weeks to April 5, before flipping the hurdle into support during in the last few days. The breakout may prompt more buyers to join the market, leading to stronger price gains. Supporting the bullish case is the three-day chart MACD histogram’s crossover above zero, a confirmation of bearish-to-bullish trend change. The bullish case would be neutralized if the spot price drops below $7,050, violating the ascending trendline connecting the March 13 and March 30 lows.

They made many bad decisions and failed to focus on what made 2.x great.\n\n3.x is a mess compared to 2.x and I dont think anyone would disagree.\n\nThe big problem the haters seem to have with 2.x, mainly 2.2.1 since most hardcore uTorrent users use it, is that old equals bad.\n\nIt is old therefore it *must* have active exploits, but of course there are none known (and uTorrent 2.2.1 has beaten at least three absurdly critical failures that the more modern clients including 3.x have had thanks to 2.2.1's excellent design).\n\nThe thread in r/piracy is an example of this. You get linked old exploits that were fixed well before 2.2.1 (and were really just potential crashes anyway, not actual exploits) and you get linked the json-rpc issue that never actually worked on uTorrent 2.2.1 and never crashed 2.2.1 either.\n\nIn the case of 3.x it should be shunned but 2.2.1 works better than anything. There are clients that use slightly less resources, cli based ones, but most use far more; none of the other clients is as fast as uTorrent 2.2.1 in connecting to swarms or reaching top speed or sustaining top speed and the cli clients are smashed by uTorrent 2.2.1's speed.\n\nThat last point is one you can test for yourself. Download a test torrent or a linux distro with 2.2.1 then try one of the other clients they like. See which is faster.\n\nI think this is what they hate most. The fact that you can say to them 'go test for yourself to see which is faster' and we all know before they do those tests that uTorrent 2.2.1 is going to win. :)\n\n> Edit: what’s with all the people downvoting but not replying\n\nlol, I usually get lots of downvotes when I defend 2.2.1 and laugh at how qBit et al had all these vulnerabilities that were shockingly bad.\n\nThey usually dont bother posting arguments as they dont have any.", 'gb8sxc'], ['u/EdwardAlphonse31011', 15, '2020-05-01 07:44', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/torrents/comments/gb8sxc/whats_with_the_utorrent_hate/fp4zquk/', "For me it's literally the Bitcoin farming **malware** .

Three alternative assets emerged as asset classes that tend to perform well when equities markets are struggling; this is what was found: Fine wine High-quality wine is one of the most promising alternative investments. The secondary wine market is currently worth $5 billion and is growing rapidly . According to the graph below, fine-wine stands head and shoulders above most mainstream assets. This data shows that the rate of return for wine investors is 110% higher than S&P 500 index investors since 1988. The average rate of return isn’t the only reason to consider investing in wine over equities and other traditional financial assets–ambitious investors have far more opportunities to beat the market. The market for most traditional assets is typically efficient because so many assets are bought and sold every day that the markets are open, and information is available nearly instantaneously. On the other hand, wine investors can identify unique trading opportunities by doing their due diligence. Story continues How to Invest in Wine Many people looking to add wine to their investment portfolios find that Vinovest is the easiest way to gain exposure to this alternative asset. Vinovest allows users to buy/sell fine-wine and even stores the wine for these users so that they do not need to worry about having the proper temperature-controlled facilitate to guarantee the wine ages well. Vinovest even allows its users to withdraw the wine they bought if they wish to drink it, and can send the wine directly to the user’s house! Gold Gold is often called a safe-haven asset because it stays relatively stable during times of economic turmoil. That being said, gold is an excellent hedge against the risks of an economic downturn. One study found that it exhibits many characteristics of zero-beta assets , which means that it has about the same level of risk as treasury bills. In other words, it is one of the safest investments that you can make. How to Invest in Gold When it comes to adding gold to your investment portfolio, there are several approaches you can take. Buying physical gold in the form of gold bars and gold coins is often the best way to gain exposure to gold. However, it is not as liquid as investing in a gold stock like a gold ETF. Bitcoin Cryptocurrencies are another alternative investment worth looking into. Bitcoin is often called digital gold because it has a finite supply–only 21,000,000 will ever exist–and is a deflationary currency. This means that as Bitcoin’s supply approaches its supply cap and as the U.S government prints more U.S dollars, that Bitcoin should become more valuable; this is because it is scarce, and because it is valued in USD, as the USD becomes worth-less as more of it is being printed. How to Invest in Cryptocurrency The easiest way to invest in cryptocurrency and own the digital asset yourself is through Coinbase. Coinbase is a digital currency exchange that allows you to buy/sell and hold many different cryptocurrencies. If you are just looking for price exposure to cryptocurrency and are not interested in holding and managing the digital assets yourself, Robinhood is a great option. Robinhood will give you price exposure to Bitcoin without requiring you to set up a cryptocurrency wallet that is capable of safely storing Bitcoin. When Will the Economy Get Better? The future of the economy is highly uncertain. Many experts believe that some form of social isolation will need to continue for at least 12-18 months.

The irony here is bitcoin (BTC) was born from an economic downturn, and most diehards would have thought this would be crypto’s time to shine. And yet, as a financial asset, the top cryptocurrencies have not done well at all in recent months . In fact, crypto appears to be retreating into stablecoins . And while the HODLing set has generally pinned little hope on crypto’s games and toys, they seem to be the first facet of the industry to see a silver lining in what otherwise looks to be an economic catastrophe. Messaging Related: Coronavirus Second Order Effects and Improving on Bitcoin With BitTorrent Creator Bram Cohen Status raised a reported $107 million in a 2017 initial coin offering (ICO) in order to build a crypto-powered answer to WhatsApp with a built-in Ethereum wallet. The Crypto Winter of 2018 hit Status hard, however, forcing the startup to let go of 25 percent of its staff in December of that year . Things now seem to be looking up for the chat app. “With the rise of government surveillance increasing across the globe as an effort to curb the spread of COVID-19, we suspect people are turning to privacy preserving tools like ours,” Status marketing chief Jonathan Zerah told CoinDesk in an email. The company released version 1.0 in mid-February, though earlier alpha and beta versions had been out since February 2017. Related: How Blockchain Tech Can Make Coronavirus Relief More Effective “Status has seen an increase in both installs of the mobile application as well as active peers in the messaging network,” Zerah wrote. “Around March 17 (just over one month after the initial release of v1.0) we noticed a ~50 percent increase in daily installs from the previous day.” Kin ecosystem Kin is a blockchain that arose from a messaging app, Kik. It has since sold off that asset and the company is now running entirely on making its fork of Stellar into the most popular blockchain in the world. Story continues The whole focus of this blockchain is putting micropayments inside the fun, time-wasting activities that made things like Instagram and Pinterest into behemoths. Kin says it had over two million spenders in March. That means people earned kin tokens in one of the network’s 50 or so apps, basically always spending them in the same place. In fact, Kin’s Kevin Ricoy told CoinDesk the firm was on track to see three million spenders by March 31. This surfeit of attention has proven to be an opportunity for social applications in the Kin ecosystem. MadLipz is an app that lets users take a clip from any sort of video and easily dub a voiceover on it, usually intended for comic effect. Amir Alikhanzadeh, MadLipz CEO, told CoinDesk, “It’s not always about just the entertainment value. Humor is a powerful tool to indirectly vent about conditions and situations that people face.” MadLipz has also opened up a virus-specific channel. The app saw a 42 percent jump in weekly active users for the week of March 15 versus the week of March 8, to 615,000 weekly users. Further, people were spending 14 minutes per session on the app versus 11 minutes before. Notably, the team has seen disproportionate spikes in usage in countries just after lockdowns have been announced, which has also led to a big overall spike in new users. Another big Kin app, Rave , which allows users to consume media together and chat about it in real-time has also seen an uptick in usage. “We’ve gone from around a million MAU [monthly active users] to multiple million MAU,” Rave CEO Michael Pazaratz told CoinDesk in an email. Users spend an average of 45 minutes in the app per session, Pazaratz said (because they do things such as syncing up a TV show or movie with a friend located elsewhere). Apps like MadLipz and Rave plug into Kin because the blockchain rewards apps that drive the most crypto-economic activity each day via its Kin Rewards Engine. App creators can then sell that kin to fund their operations. However, crypto earned by users in kin apps still can’t be taken out and used elsewhere, though the team promises that day is coming. Games The boon to games has not been limited to mainstream titles. Games with crypto at their core but mainstream appeal have also seen strong gains. War Riders , a sort of Mad Max adventure that uses non-fungible tokens (NFTs) to give users game access, also has its own currency token called benzene. “We’ve been seeing about 70 percent jump in new users and average time spent in the game increased drastically,” Vlad Kartashov, CEO of Carfied, the company behind War Riders, told CoinDesk. War Riders is free to play, sort of. It requires an NFT representing one of the vehicles to access the game. The company decided to run a promotion last weekend to hook interested users, giving away free war vans to people curious about trying the game. Over 300 people picked up a free van and there’s another similar promotion coming soon. For context, the least expensive War Riders vehicle sells for about $5 in ETH on OpenSea right now. Others sell for hundreds of ETH, however. Lucid Sight is a game company that has worked very hard to appeal to the mainstream market without making its crypto elements too obvious. It has brought Star Trek and Major League Baseball to the blockchain, primarily relying on NFT technology to give users who care about these things true ownership. Lucid Sight CEO sent CoinDesk data on its space game, CSC, which incorporates “Star Trek”-themed spaceships among many many others. They are seeing more players at a time and people are playing far longer. Session times are up to 60 minutes, from 20 minutes before the COVID-19 crisis. Further, a lot more spaceships are selling. The market cap for CSC in-game items is up $10 million. Lucid Sight has seen 70 percent more sales over the month, as well, to 60 million items. Virtual worlds In a corner of the crypto world that’s part game, part social network, there is Cryptovoxels , a very indie sort of Sim City experience, led by Ben Nolan. “We were seeing concurrency of five to 10 logged in users before lockdown and an average of 40 to 50 now,” Nolan told CoinDesk. Two community leaders in Cryptovoxels decided to put the call out for a virtual reality party dubbed “Get Out While You Stay In.” Forty to 50 people were hanging out virtually and artists in the community made special works to decorate the common space. “We had to do a bunch of work to get the world to scale OK to the event, but I think it went down pretty well,” Nolan said.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin rose by 1.81% on Saturday. Following on from a 2.23% gain on Friday, Bitcoin ended the day at $8,982.3 A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning intraday low $8,756.2 before making a move. Steering clear of the first major support level at $8,609.53, Bitcoin rallied to a late afternoon intraday high $9,004.0. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $9,053.03, Bitcoin briefly slid to sub-$8,900 levels and into the red. Finding late support, however, Bitcoin broke back through to $8,900 levels to wrap up the day in the green. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from $10,000 levels to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a bullish day for the pack on Saturday. Litecoin, Stellar’s Lumen, and Tron’ TRX led the way, with gains of 4.56%, 3.92%, and 3.05% respectively. Bitcoin Cash ABC (+2.27%), EOS (+2.52%), Ethereum (+1.02%), Monero’s XMR (+1.93%), Ripple’s XRP (+2.80%), and Tezos (+1.16%) also found strong support. Binance Coin and Bitcoin Cash SV trailed the back with more modest gains of 0.46% and 0.84% respectively. Following a 7.17% breakout on Friday, Cardano’s ADA slipped by 0.08%, however, to buck the trend on the day. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap rose from a Monday low $220.56bn to a Thursday high $263.29bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $255.17bn. Bitcoin’s dominance recovered to 64% levels following Wednesday’s breakout before breaking through to 65% levels.

Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from the morning high $9,198.0. Barring an extended crypto rally, the second major resistance level and resistance at $9,200 would likely pin Bitcoin back on the day. In the event of another breakout, the third major resistance level at $9,409.77 would come into play. Failure to break back through the second major resistance level could see Bitcoin struggle later in the day.

A Forex trading day starts in Australia and ends in New York. The market stays open for 24 hours a day and five and a half days a week. There are specific regulations in countries, continents that oversee the trading of Forex. In some countries, FX trading is restricted and banned while in others, it is fully supported. In this post, our focus is on Africa as we’ll be looking at Forex regulation across the continent. Overview of Forex Trading In Africa Forex trading is a very competitive activity, and in Africa, it is no different. The market has experienced speedy growth over the last two decades as more Africans are being enlightened on what Forex entails. Significantly, the last decade has seen the Forex market go from almost unnoticed to becoming one of the most dynamic industries in the content. This can be attributed to the advent of mobile devices and other technologies. There are about 1.3 million Forex traders in Africa. South Africa and Nigeria lead the way as both countries constitute a large percentage of the total figure. Other countries where Forex trading is gaining ground are Kenya , Egypt, Angola, Namibia, and Tanzania. This has attracted international Forex brokers like IQ Option , IC Markets , XM Forex Trading , ForexTime (FXTM ), and Olymp Trade . With this vast amount of forex traders, it is expected that government financial regulatory bodies will be interested in monitoring trading activities in individual countries. Forex-Friendly African Countries A lot of African countries are Forex-friendly, but there are minor restrictions from the government. Forex can be traded in Nigeria, South Africa, Egypt, Kenya, Namibia, Ivory Coast, and many other African countries. Story continues Whereas Forex trading cannot be said to be legalized in these countries, it also does not break the law. Before a Forex broker can offer Forex trading services to a country’s citizen, it is mostly mandatory to acquire a trading license.

Miners on the network produced the 630,000th block around 00:50 UTC time on Friday, which, by design, triggered the halving event that reduced mining rewards from 12.5 BSV to 6.25 per block. BSVis now trading at $214 as of press time, for a market capitalization of $3.9 billion, making the network the market’s sixth largest cryptocurrency. It’s down 5.4 percent over the past 24 hours, according to CoinDesk’s price index. Related:Top Cryptos Edge Up as Derivatives Data Suggests Newfound Risk Aversion Among Traders The halving means the daily output for newly mined BSV is now around 900 units, which, at BSV’s current price, means the pie of block rewards miners can compete over totals about $200,000 a day. The total computing power racing on Bitcoin SV has declined by some 25 percent since a recent high around four exahashes per second (EH/s) in early February, following BSV’s price plunge from $370 to $110 within a month. The price had bounced back to over $200 over the past several weeks. The halving event came just a day after the same milestone for Bitcoin Cash, which broke off the Bitcoin network following a heated community disagreement in 2017. Miners on the Bitcoin SV network may face the sameprofitability issueas those on Bitcoin Cash. Following Bitcoin Cash’s halving Wednesday, the hashing power on the network has dropped from around 3.5 EH/s to 2.5 EH/s. It took miners about 100 minutes to mine the first block after the Wednesday halving, while the average block production time is designed to be 10 minutes.

Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Economic growth figures are starting to trickle in and, as expected, they’re bad. Really bad. This past week the U.S. reported Q1 GDP growth as -4.8%. Italy’s GDP fell -4.5%, Spain came in at -5.2% and France trumped that with a whopping -5.8%. And that’s just warming up – Christine Lagarde, head of the ECB, has warned euro-area GDP could fall by as much as 15% in Q2. And yet stock markets in the U.S. and Europe closed up on the week, in spite of the inevitability the next quarter will be worse still. You’re reading Crypto Long & Short , a newsletter that looks closely at the forces driving cryptocurrency markets. Authored by CoinDesk’s head of research, Noelle Acheson, it goes out every Sunday and offers a recap of the week – with insights and analysis – from a professional investor’s point of view. You can subscribe here . Related: Market Wrap: Bitcoin Dips to $8.8K but Optimism Seen Continuing Ahead of Halving This could be partly due to the concentration of market capitalization – nearly 25% of the S&P 500 market capitalization is from five tech companies, which arguably will do relatively well from more people staying at and working from home. Or, it could be because the stock market has broken all ties with the actual economy. The aforementioned concentration of the S&P 500 is intensifying, fueled by the dominance of passive investing, which means its performance does not reflect that of most of its constituents. And the “ moral hazard ” posed by the government’s willingness to bail out companies in difficulty suspends the need to scrutinize balance sheets and evaluate viability. But reality doesn’t stay suspended forever, no matter how much we wish it would. Eventually the abrupt slowdown of economic activity will feed through to numbers investors can’t ignore, and the current price/earnings (P/E) valuations will start to look absurd. This is where bitcoin comes in. Its underlying technology and monetary system make it one of the few investable assets that is immune to the economic fluctuations we have ahead. Story continues First, its P/E ratios will never look absurd because it doesn’t have any earnings. Nothing to get hit there. Related: First Mover: Capitalism’s Biggest Crisis Isn’t Driving People to Bitcoin – It’s the Volatility Second, its use will not be curtailed by lack of customer mobility – users can transact from anywhere. In fact, logistical constraints could boost interest in bitcoin transactions from those who normally hand over physical cash (although why they would want to if people aren’t moving around is another question). Third, its market valuation is not susceptible to artificial support from governments trying to keep investor (and voter) spirits up. This does not mean bitcoin’s price will keep going up while other prices come down. We saw back in March that when things get bad in markets, bitcoin also suffers. Its price is driven by sentiment. But it is also driven by expectations of future adoption and demand, which are unrelated to the drivers of demand for most other investable assets. In terms of fundamentals, bitcoin has nothing to lose in the upcoming crisis – no income, no debt and its future adoption does not depend on happy and confident consumers. Just the opposite, in fact. The growing awareness of this, combined with heightened media attention due to the upcoming halving , could be one of the reasons behind this week’s recovery. Or perhaps it is being swept along in the wave of inexplicable optimism in traditional markets. Should that turn south, bitcoin is likely to suffer in the sentiment-driven short term. Longer term, however, fundamentals tend to surface, and those that drive bitcoin are radically different from those that drive traditional markets. Talk about marching to your own beat. Not that big a deal One argument in favor of the bitcoin price rallying after the halving is that of supply and demand. Assuming demand is more or less constant (I know, but work with me here), when supply drops the price should go up. Basic economics – you remember that graph from high school, right? After the halving, there will be fewer new bitcoin entering the market every day. Since miners need to sell part of their hard-won new bitcoins to meet expenses, some of the sell pressure comes from miners. If they are selling fewer bitcoins (because they have fewer bitcoins to sell), then there is less supply meeting a constant demand and the equilibrium price moves up. Fine, but one part of this model is already obviously unstable – demand is not constant, not by a long stretch. Even so, there is another overlooked weakness: The dent in sell pressure is negligible. Post-halving, there will be 6.25 fewer new bitcoins entering circulation with every block. Assuming a new block every 10 minutes, that translates to approximately 900 fewer new bitcoins a day. Considering the number of bitcoins transferred on-chain in April was an average of over 270,000 per day, 900 less won’t make much of a difference to the supply curve in that simple basic price equilibrium graph. Any positive halving impact is more likely to come from increased awareness and trader interest resulting from the media attention. The juxtaposition of what is becoming known as a “ quantitative hardening ” against a “quantitative easing,” combined with growing unease about the latter, is likely to transform this media-fueled attention into a lasting interest from investors, analysts and economists. What is unclear is whether any price momentum from the halving would be enough to offset a hit to general sentiment from broader macro concern. As always in investing, one’s individual time horizon is everything. Anyone know what’s going on yet? In spite of a stream of bad news on employment, production and earnings, the S&P 500 had its strongest April since 1987, possibly floating on the stimulus laughing gas. European indices also had a good month, as economies started announcing tentative steps towards opening up their economies and electricity consumption started edging up. As April turned into May, markets started to retreat, perhaps digesting the recent gains and perhaps unnerved by a new anti-China belligerence from the U.S. and earnings warnings from tech companies . Gold continues to play the inflation game but with less enthusiasm and some profit taking – it remains to be seen how it would perform if stocks head south again. And West Texas oil had its first positive week in about a month as confidence gathered around the production cuts, although there could well be more turmoil there as the next futures expiries approach. As you can see in the chart above, bitcoin had a particularly strong month. The jump this week gave bitcoin its best April in years, with data suggesting this rally is largely fueled by U.S. investors, with growth more in spot volumes than derivatives. And a lack of foreign reserves has pushed countries such as Lebanon and Turkey towards currency crises, which remind us that a strong dollar impacts much more than just FX markets. What’s happening in Lebanon , where anti-government protests have turned violent and triggered the closure of the capital’s banks, will become a textbook example of the risks of centralized finance for years to come. (Note: Nothing in this newsletter is investment advice. The author owns small amounts of bitcoin and ether.) Chain links CoinDesk Research has published its first in a series of deep dives into listed crypto companies. We’re starting with Hut 8, one of the largest listed bitcoin miners, and its financials and recent operational shifts reveal some of the hurdles bitcoin miners struggle with in capitalizing their business while maintaining margins. Preston Pysh looks at investment opportunities in a market increasingly manipulated by government printing, predicting that a “break” will be triggered either by social unrest or a natural transition to a different form of money. TAKEAWAY: Preston is not a crypto enthusiast (among other things, he hosts the podcast “We Study Billionaires”), but he is bullish on bitcoin largely as an alternative to an increasingly debased dollar – this makes his take particularly interesting for those managing diversified portfolios, which should be everyone. How many of a project’s contributors have to be hit by a bus for the project to stall? Introducing the “ bus factor ,” a new metric that measures resilience. Really. TAKEAWAY: Actually, it’s a cool concept, intriguingly expanded on here by analyst Hasu. The higher the bus factor (the more widely distributed the code development), the easier a network is to replicate. The lower the bus factor (the more concentrated its control), the greater the risk. A couple of years ago Twitter woke up to a mercifully false rumor that Ethereum creator Vitalik Buterin had been killed in a car accident. (It didn’t involve a bus as far as I know.) The news pushed ether’s price down 15%. These days the impact would probably be different (although please be careful, Vitalik), but the anecdote shows that this is a metric worth watching. The city of Ya’an, in China’s mountainous Sichuan province, is publicly encouraging the blockchain industry to help consume excessive hydroelectricity ahead of the summer rainy season. TAKEAWAY: This highlights how excess energy from hydroelectric and natural gas plants can bring down operating costs for miners, making their sector – crucial to the maintenance of the bitcoin network – more profitable and less vulnerable to price swings and halvings. Bitcoin futures and bitcoin options both had their most active day since the crash on March 12, according to derivatives data provider skew.com.

(NASDAQ: CAN) ("Canaan" or "the Company") for violations of the federal securities laws. Investors who purchased the Company's securities pursuant and/or traceable to the Company's initial public offering ("IPO") on or about November 20, 2019, are encouraged to contact the firm before May 4, 2020.

The class, in this case, has not yet been certified, and until certification occurs, you are not represented by an attorney. If you choose to take no action, you can remain an absent class member. According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. Canaan claimed to engage in "strategic cooperation" which was really just a related-party transaction. The Company was in a weaker financial position than it reported. The Company removed many distributors immediately before the IPO, many of which were of dubious quality. Many of the Company's Chinese customers were not in the Bitcoin industry and were therefore not likely to buy its products again. Based on these facts, the Company's public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about Canaan, investors suffered damages. Join the case to recover your losses. The Schall Law Firm represents investors around the world and specializes in securities class action lawsuits and shareholder rights litigation.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Wednesday\x92s US ADP labour market report showed a record 20.24 million jobs were lost in the private sector last month due to business closures. While these numbers were anticipated, given that more than 30 million people filed for unemployment benefits over the past six weeks, this still represents an extreme shock to the world\x92s largest economy. When analysts and strategists try to forecast the future of asset prices during such shocks, they tend to compare it to previous past patterns or economic cycles to draw conclusions and recommendations. Unfortunately in our lifetime, we have never experienced such a pandemic nor a contraction of this size and speed in the economy. Even many of the tools used by monetary and fiscal policymakers are brand new. Hence, predicting how this will turn out is going to be more of a guessing game than by using existing modelling and statistical methods. Right now, the optimistic V-shaped recovery does not look like a realistic scenario for several reasons. An upturn of this type means that most of America and the world needs to get back to work soon, but that does not seem at all reasonable when looking at trends in Covid-19 infections. Even with lockdowns easing in many US states and across the globe, many sectors will not recover for several years, particularly airlines, leisure, auto and possibly oil. Many questions related to the virus are still not being answered yet, especially the ones related to when and if a vaccine or treatment will be developed. Will the warm weather help contain the infections? Will the virus mutate into a different form requiring new medical trials? Will easing lockdowns lead to a new and stronger wave of infections? Until we get answers to these questions among several others, we cannot predict the shape and speed of the recovery. Of course, the longer we stay at home, the more progress there should be in containing the deadly virus. However, this comes at the cost of more economic damage and it is this trade-off between health and the economy which is the most awkward question leaders across the globe are having to deal with. Even if we assume life returns to near normal, are we going to behave in the same way we did before Covid-19? Will we have the courage to appear in crowded places? Will all parents send their children back to school? Will we travel to places where infections are still on the rise? Are we going to follow old spending habits? In my opinion, it will take several months if not years to return to normal and that\x92s why even if economies open up, the recovery will be slow. Story continues Currently the stock market is not a true representation of the economy\x92s weakened status. Investors are taking their cue from the Federal Reserve and Congress which are implementing unprecedented measures to ensure that the economic pain does not get reflected in financial markets. However, I believe there will be many long-term consequences which will be talked for many years to come. The forward earnings multiple on the S&P 500 is currently standing at a 19-year high of 25, while the cyclically adjusted earnings multiple is still above the 2008 peak, despite falling from 31 in January this year to approximately 26.7 today. This suggests that valuations are still extraordinarily rich despite the vast amount of companies providing negative guidance, if in fact they are giving any at all. At current levels, I think investors are betting on a best-case economic recovery scenario supported by further easing measures. But as I mentioned earlier, predicting how asset prices play out during this pandemic is more of a guessing game than any form of true analysis. Let\x92s hope that markets are right in predicting the best-case scenario.

Last month, the stock market had its worst day since 1987, as the virus started bringing the economy to a screeching halt. Also Read | 'Sharmik special train' Carrying 839 Migrant Workers Departs from Nashik Road Railway Station for Lucknow: Coronavirus Tracker Live News Updates on May 2, 2020 The market has been highly erratic, as experts continue to debate the long-term economic impact of the pandemic. The good news is that there are still some promising investment opportunities. Investors may need to consider alternative investments instead of relying solely on equities, bonds, and other traditional assets. Alternative asset classes for the coronavirus epidemic Also Read | CRPF Camp in East Delhi Reports More COVID-19 Cases as 68 Jawans Test Positive, Total Tally in CRPF Reaches 127 While the coronavirus has created substantial uncertainty in the major financial markets, markets for other assets have been far more stable. Three alternative assets emerged as asset classes that tend to perform well when equities markets are struggling; this is what was found: Fine wine High-quality wine is one of the most promising alternative investments. The secondary wine market is currently worth $5 billion and is growing rapidly . According to the graph below, fine-wine stands head and shoulders above most mainstream assets. This data shows that the rate of return for wine investors is 110% higher than S&P 500 index investors since 1988. The average rate of return isn’t the only reason to consider investing in wine over equities and other traditional financial assets–ambitious investors have far more opportunities to beat the market. The market for most traditional assets is typically efficient because so many assets are bought and sold every day that the markets are open, and information is available nearly instantaneously. On the other hand, wine investors can identify unique trading opportunities by doing their due diligence. Story continues How to Invest in Wine Many people looking to add wine to their investment portfolios find that Vinovest is the easiest way to gain exposure to this alternative asset. Vinovest allows users to buy/sell fine-wine and even stores the wine for these users so that they do not need to worry about having the proper temperature-controlled facilitate to guarantee the wine ages well. Vinovest even allows its users to withdraw the wine they bought if they wish to drink it, and can send the wine directly to the user’s house! Gold Gold is often called a safe-haven asset because it stays relatively stable during times of economic turmoil. That being said, gold is an excellent hedge against the risks of an economic downturn. One study found that it exhibits many characteristics of zero-beta assets , which means that it has about the same level of risk as treasury bills. In other words, it is one of the safest investments that you can make. How to Invest in Gold When it comes to adding gold to your investment portfolio, there are several approaches you can take. Buying physical gold in the form of gold bars and gold coins is often the best way to gain exposure to gold. However, it is not as liquid as investing in a gold stock like a gold ETF. Bitcoin Cryptocurrencies are another alternative investment worth looking into. Bitcoin is often called digital gold because it has a finite supply–only 21,000,000 will ever exist–and is a deflationary currency. This means that as Bitcoin’s supply approaches its supply cap and as the U.S government prints more U.S dollars, that Bitcoin should become more valuable; this is because it is scarce, and because it is valued in USD, as the USD becomes worth-less as more of it is being printed. How to Invest in Cryptocurrency The easiest way to invest in cryptocurrency and own the digital asset yourself is through Coinbase. Coinbase is a digital currency exchange that allows you to buy/sell and hold many different cryptocurrencies. If you are just looking for price exposure to cryptocurrency and are not interested in holding and managing the digital assets yourself, Robinhood is a great option. Robinhood will give you price exposure to Bitcoin without requiring you to set up a cryptocurrency wallet that is capable of safely storing Bitcoin. When Will the Economy Get Better? The future of the economy is highly uncertain. Many experts believe that some form of social isolation will need to continue for at least 12-18 months. That being said, investors should hedge against this uncertainty by leveraging alternative assets like fine-wine, gold, and cryptocurrency.... - Reddit Posts (Sample): [['u/Mark_Bear', 'Bitcoin is the new gold', 59, '2020-05-07 00:06', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/getppb/bitcoin_is_the_new_gold/', '## Bitcoin Compared to Gold\n\nGold is expensive to store securely.\n\nGold is extremely expensive and slow to transport securely, especially large amounts.\n\nGold is heavy, it takes up space.\n\nYou can\'t walk very far carrying a lot of gold.

Gold has already been confiscated by the US government.\n\nHighway robbers, corrupt border guards, pirates, and others can merely kill you, then take any gold you were transporting.\n\nTungsten\'s density is very close to that of gold. There are now gold-coated tungsten bars in circulation.

This measure is arrived at by means of an objective calculation or complex financial model, rather than using the currently trading market price of that asset.\n\nWikipedia says:\n\nIn finance, intrinsic value or fundamental value is the "true, inherent, and essential value"\\[1\\] of an asset independent of its market value.\\[2\\]\n\nSo, technically, Bitcoin has no intrinsic value, but that\'s okay.\n\nFiat money has no intrinsic value, either.\n\nGold has a little bit of intrinsic value, about on par with copper or aluminum.\n\nAgain: **Bitcoin is the strongest, soundest money ever used**, even though it does not have much, if any, "intrinsic value".', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/getppb/bitcoin_is_the_new_gold/', 'getppb', [['u/Spartacus_Nakamoto', 11, '2020-05-07 04:46', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/getppb/bitcoin_is_the_new_gold/fpqc939/', 'This has already been solved.

Because it builds an exchange API rather than an actual machines, Coinme can plug bitcoin buying into just about any compatible device: “kiosks, ATMs, [Point of Sale], and merchants” in Latin American countries, Bergquist said.\n“They want to be the backend, they want to be the pipes to make money move around the world in a much more seamless way,” said Veradittakit.\nCORRECTION (8 May 15:17 UTC): A previous version of this story incorrectly reported that Michael Jack was President of Product Management and that Coinstar would roll out new machines that feature Coinme.

On March 18, the miner’s parent company, investment firm DPW Holdings, filed an update with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) on its business related to the COVID-19 pandemic, which has been heavily affecting companies and markets globally. Among other closures and down-scalings, its mining business is being shuttered. “Digital Farms’ cryptocurrency mining operations have been suspended indefinitely, primarily due to the sharp decline in the market price for bitcoin,” the company wrote. Related: Riot Blockchain Says Coronavirus Outbreak Might Hurt Crypto Mining Farms Last May, DPW announced Digital Farms, formerly Super Crypto Mining, had obtained a 617,000 square foot facility in the U.S. to set up operations with “immediate access to 28 megawatts of power and an infrastructure to support up to 300 megawatts.” Super Crypto Mining was acquired by DPW in January 2018 and later re-branded as Digital Farms. According to DWP’s annual report filed with the SEC in April 2019, the mining operation had started off by borrowing $5 million from two institutional investors and buying a thousand of Bitmain’s Antminer S9 mining machines. Mining of bitcoin, litecoin (LTC) and ether (ETH) under the new owner kicked off in February 2018. See also: Miners Are Selling More Bitcoin Than They Are Mining The company’s first yearly revenue from crypto mining was $1.67 million, a small portion of DPW’s total $27 million revenue, according to the 2019 report. The company had been planning to mine the top 10 cryptocurrencies by market capitalization and also offer cloud mining services. Related: Bear Market Over? Charts on Bitcoin and ASX 200 Suggest Otherwise Discussing its scenario under the coronavirus pandemic, DWP said in the latest filing: “Due to the unprecedented market conditions domestically and internationally, and the effect COVID-19 has had and will continue to have on the Company’s operations and financial performance, the extent of which is not currently known, the Company is temporarily suspending guidance for 2020.” Story continues Bitcoin’s price has been dropping since February from levels above $10,000, making it hard for the mining industry to return a profit. On March 3, wider market turmoil brought on by the growing coronavirus outbreak prompted a crash to below $4,000. Prices have since regained poise and are around $6,660 at press time.

This "halving," the third in bitcoin\'s 11-year history, has been widely flagged. The previous events fueled huge surges in bitcoin\'s market value, but there is a wildcard this time in the form of the coronavirus pandemic, some analysts said. "From an efficient market perspective, any fundamental reaction to the halving should be heavily priced in at this point," said Matt Weller, global head of market research at GAIN Capital. "After all, it\'s hard to imagine a more predictable event than an unalterable supply reduction that has been scheduled for more than a decade in a liquid, heavily-traded ... asset." Bitcoin relies on "mining" computers that validate blocks of transactions by competing to solve mathematical puzzles every 10 minutes. In return, the first miner to solve the puzzle and clear the transaction is rewarded new bitcoins. The technology was designed in such a way that it cuts the reward for miners by half after every 210,000 blocks mined or roughly every four years, a move meant to keep a lid on inflation. That reduction in the rate at which new bitcoin enters the system should theoretically push the price up. The halving could happen as soon as Monday or Tuesday, with most Bitcoin platforms showing that only about 100 blocks needed to be mined before hitting the halving threshold. The mining reward is currently 12.5 bitcoins per block mined. In this week\'s halving, the reward will fall to 6.25 new bitcoins. In the run-up to this week\'s halving, bitcoin had surged nearly 40% since the beginning of the year and climbed more than 85% from its lows. It was last at $8,630, down 14% from last week\'s peak. Story continues By comparison, the dollar index is up 3.3% so far this year. HALF, AND HALF AGAIN The first halving occurred in November 2012 when the mining reward was reduced from 50 bitcoins to 25, and the second occurred in July 2016 when it was further cut to 12.5 bitcoin. This deflationary event has historically signaled the start of bitcoin\'s most dramatic bull runs over a period of several years, although not before a brief sell-off.

Such market occurrences have led BitMEX's Insurance fund to hit an all-time high of 36,493 BTC. At the same time, the insurance fund maintained by Deribit has been slashed almost by half. The two crypto derivatives exchanges both have insurance funds to pay out the winning party of a trade when its gains cannot be fully covered by the liquidated side. Due to the decline, Deribit announced that it had injected 500 BTC of the company's own funds into the insurance fund, which dropped from 392 BTC on Wednesday to 198 BTC as of Friday. According to the announcement, this move is to prevent liquidation losses from draining the insurance fund and eventually being socialized among users. "Due to extreme volatility, we have seen a significant impact on our BTC insurance fund. In order to prevent socialized losses we have decided to support the insurance fund and strengthen it by injecting 500 BTC of company funds. This has paid off and has protected clients from further losses as the current balance is below that amount," stated the announcement. While Deribit grows its insurance fund by charging fees on executing liquidation orders, BitMEX's fund increases when liquidations are "executed at a price better than the bankruptcy price." This means that when traders are liquidated before hitting the theoretical maximum of their positions, the fund pockets the difference between the two positions. As of the time of writing, a staggering $1.6 billion had been liquidated on BitMEX, boosting the exchange's insurance fund in the last 24 hours. As The Block reported earlier today , the fund lost only 1,627 bitcoins from March 11 to March 12 and saw its balance surged 7.7% since then. View comments... - Reddit Posts (Sample): no_data...

Reeling from its worst week since the global financial crisis in 2008-2009, the benchmark S&P/ASX200 has fallen from Friday’s close of 4,816 basis points to around 4,536, after Prime Minister Scott Morrison declared historic measures to curb the rise of COVID-19 from within the country.

The chief investment officer at Orthogonal Trading, Joshua Green, said the downward pressure currently being experienced in the Aussie share market was the result of much of the same seen over last week’s trade. “I think the ASX is being driven by global equities, which are being driven by a combination of momentum selling, panic selling and de-levering on the back of coronavirus fears,” Green said. “The market clearly wants some sort of fiscal deal in the US which appears to be a struggle due to partisanship,” he added.

She offered Craig a poisoned chalice: \n\n>In light of the Defendant\'s representations that the bonded courier is scheduled to arrive in January 2020, the Court will permit the Defendant through and including February 3, 2020, to file a notice with the court indicating whether or not this mysterious figure has appeared from the shadows and whether the Defendant now has access to the last key slice needed to unlock the encrypted file. In the event this occurs, and further if the Defendant produces his list of Bitcoin Holdings as ordered by the Magistrate Judge, then this Court will not impose any additional sanctions other than the ones discussed above.\n\nWith the not so subtle implication being that Bloom did not believe Craig\'s invocations of a "mysterious bonded courier" and that if he failed to satisfy this burden additional sanctions would be forthcoming.\n\nMr. Wright apparently took this as a forgery challenge, only one where he didn\'t have much respect for the intellect of his adversaries.\n\n[In his report](https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.flsd.521536/gov.uscourts.flsd.521536.500.5.pdf) Andreas Antonopoulos labels four separate files of Bitcoin lists, Shadders List, CW, DK, and CSW Filed. \n\nShadders List: The list of Wright\'s Bitcoin Shadders produced with a bug he disclosed that caused the least significant byte of some of the nonces for the Coinbases to fall outside of the range 0-58 (the Patoshi pattern that\'s been used to identify Satoshi\'s Bitcoin), referred to as the Shadders Bug ([this bug is discussed more here](https://np.reddit.com/r/bsv/comments/cr9lnu/steve_shadders_lied_in_court_or_is_a_moron_or/)).\n\nCW List: A list of Wright\'s Bitcoin the Trust produced during settlement negotiations \n\nDK List: A list of Dave Kleiman\'s Bitcoin the trust produced during settlement negotiations.\n\nCSW Filed List: The list of Wright\'s Bitcoin Craig allegedly receive from the bonded courier and then filed with the court in time to attempt to escape sanctions.\n\nBullet points:\n\n* None of the lists include multiple Bitcoin addresses that were known to belong to Satoshi (the Hal Finney transaction address, the Dustin Trammel transaction address, the Mike Hearn Transaction address, etc)\n* All lists of Bitcoins are subsets of the list Shadders provided initially.\n* The CW List and the CSW Filed List are exactly the same, except the CW Filed List omits Bitcoin that was spent on dates between August 6, 2017 and June 27, 2019. As it should, these coins were supposedly locked up in a trust, and inaccessible to the world. On the theory that Wright is not a total fraud it is inexplicable that the Tulip Trust should have provided a list containing coins that were clearly still accessible while they were supposed to be locked up.\n* 3 of the addresses in CSW Filed, the document produced by CSW to avoid contempt of court, allegedly after having received it from the mysterious bonded courier, and which again are supposed to refle...

Hong Kong Bounces Back A week after posting its worst day in 6-weeks, Hong Kong’s Hang Seng Index is bouncing back on Monday. Last week’s selling was fueled by the release of the city’s economic growth data report that showed its biggest-ever quarterly economic contraction. First-quarter GDP dropped 8.9% compared with the same period a year earlier.

The feature allows users to buy bitcoin (BTC) and ether (ETH) directly from Opera’s in-built crypto wallet using a Visa or Mastercard debit card. “Expanding this feature to more regions is key to driving blockchain-adoption,” Charles Hamel, head of crypto at Opera browsers, said in a statement shared with The Block on Monday. Opera has partnered with payments firm Wyre for the initiative. Just earlier this month, Opera brought its crypto buying feature to theU.S.users. The feature is also available in the three Scandinavian countries - Norway, Sweden, and Denmark. Opera has today also partnered with Unstoppable Domains, a blockchain naming system built on Ethereum, to allow users to simplify their wallet address with a .crypto domain name. It allows users to more easily send and receive cryptocurrencies in their wallets, said Opera. The browser-maker has also signed a deal with Protocol Labs, the main firm behind the development of the IPFS (InterPlanetary File System) protocol, to integrate this experience into Opera for Android. This gives users the "ability to access the cloudless, decentralized web of the future through IPFS-protocol support," said Opera.... - Reddit Posts (Sample): [['u/Richard_Whitman', 'Do cryptocurrencies always behave so uniformly?', 18, '2020-05-11 02:24', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/ghd2hb/do_cryptocurrencies_always_behave_so_uniformly/', 'I recently started playing around with cryptos and since the sudden drop of bitcoin from 10k to 8.5k I noticed that others cryptos are following almost EXACTLY the same trend.

The company offers over 100,000 on-trend and high-quality pieces for the home and garden, from traditional dining room to contemporary items at greatly reduced prices. For new customers paying in crypto, Beliani is offering £100 off purchases of £400 or more. For additional details, visit Beliani.co.uk/content/bitpay/ BitPay CEO and Co-Founder Stephen Pair said, “It’s great to see Beliani accept crypto adding new furniture options to BitPay users who are looking to spend bitcoin and opening new market opportunities to Beliani.” Over 1 million customers across 16 countries in Europe, including Germany, Switzerland, Austria, UK, France, Italy, Spain, Portugal, the Netherlands, Belgium, Danemark, Sweden, Finland, Polen, Czech Republic and Hungary purchased furniture from Beliani. As the first furniture seller to accept cryptocurrency through BitPay, users can pay with Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, XRP and ETH, as well as four dollar-pegged stablecoins, USDC, GUSD, PAX and BUSD, supported by BitPay. “In today’s economic climate it’s easy to see the value BitPay adds by opening up our products to new consumers, and by being an early adopter of a payment technology that’s on the verge of exploding into mainstream adoption,” said Stephan Widmer, CEO with Beliani. Beliani ships internationally so adding BitPay as a payment option made perfect sense since crypto payments are global and have no risk of chargebacks as with traditional credit cards. Implementing BitPay was quick and easy and can save 2 - 3% on each transaction made in crypto versus other payment methods. In the check out page, the BitPay logo is featured alongside other major payment providers to make it easy for customers to choose crypto as a payment option. Beliani anticipates the addition of crypto payments via BitPay, as well as the addition of Beliani to BitPay’s merchant directory, which gives the company access to a broad n **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [5563.71, 5200.37, 5392.31, 5014.48, 5225.63, 5238.44, 6191.19, 6198.78, 6185.07, 5830.25, 6416.31, 6734.80, 6681.06, 6716.44, 6469.80, 6242.19, 5922.04, 6429.84, 6438.64, 6606.78, 6793.62, 6733.39, 6867.53, 6791.13, 7271.78, 7176.41, 7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32, 7117.21, 7429.72, 7550.90, 7569.94, 7679.87, 7795.60, 7807.06, 8801.04, 8658.55, 8864.77, 8988.60, 8897.47, 8912.65, 9003.07, 9268.76, 9951.52, 9842.67, 9593.90, 8756.43, 8601.80] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

But plummeting prices weren't the only problem for investors. As volatility and volumes spiked, the infrastructure underpinning digital coin trading creaked under the strain. Futures exchanges saw a rash of electronically-triggered liquidations of leveraged positions, fuelling pressure on prices. Spreads between exchanges jumped. And at least two major exchanges went down, leaving investors locked out of the market for well over an hour. Bitcoin prices collapsed nearly 40% on March 12, the biggest one-day drop since spring 2013, before jumping 16% a day later. Volatility raced to its highest in seven years, with volumes across major cryptocurrency exchanges soaring to $30.8 billion on March 12-13, data from industry website CryptoCompare shows -- among the four highest two-day totals on record. As the turmoil gripped markets, New York exchange Gemini said it fell offline for less than 90 minutes. Seychelles-based BitMEX, one of the world's biggest platforms for leveraged derivatives trading, went down twice, for a total of 45 minutes. A spokeswoman for Gemini said the exchange "observed a technical issue impacting a subset of our customers." "In an abundance of caution, and to protect the integrity of our marketplace, we paused the market to resolve the issue and ensure all market services were back online in a healthy state prior to reopening," she said. Gemini declined to detail the problem, or comment on whether it was caused or exacerbated by market moves. BitMEX said its outages were due to denial-of-service cyberattacks that stopped messages from reaching its trading engines. The unidentified attackers "waited for the moment their attack would make the most market impact" and overwhelmed the platform "during a moment of peak volatility", it said. The outages were a reminder of the fragility of key components in crypto markets, underscoring the dangers of a high-risk asset that large investors typically steer clear of. And while most exchanges continued as normal during the turbulence, the Gemini and BitMEX episodes may also fuel doubts that bitcoin's infrastructure is solid enough for it to work as an alternative to traditional currencies. "There's no way to say it's good for the ecosystem when exchanges go down," said Richard Galvin of crypto fund Digital Asset Capital Management. (GRAPHIC: Bitcoin plummets - https://fingfx.thomsonreuters.com/gfx/editorcharts/HEALTH-CORONAVIRUS-CRYPTOCURRENCIES/0H001R8H9CE4/eikon.png) FRAGILE INFRASTRUCTURE? As bitcoin struggles to evolve from rebel technology into mainstream asset, the outages underscore the fragility of the sector at times of stress, industry figures said. "Volatility is not an issue -- it's whether the technology can deal with the volatility." said Denis Vinokourov at crypto exchange BeQuant. Most crypto exchanges have bolstered their capacity to deal with high volatility and volumes, and the majority of major exchanges continued operating normally late last week. But with crypto markets having been dogged by cyberattacks since their birth 12 years ago, exchanges should be better prepared, said Tim Swinson, head of market intelligence at Clearmatics, a London-based blockchain startup that designs peer-to-peer payment platforms. "The fact that exchanges are still being taken down is par for the course, but it shouldn't be an excuse," he said. "It shouldn't be normal." (GRAPHIC: Volatile times - https://fingfx.thomsonreuters.com/gfx/editorcharts/HEALTH-CORONAVIRUS-CRYPTOCURRENCIES/0H001R8H6CDY/eikon.png) CIRCUIT BREAKERS As bitcoin fell on Thursday, positions on major derivatives exchanges such as BitMEX, which offers highly leveraged trading, were automatically liquidated. That stoked pressure on prices, amplifying moves and accelerating bitcoin's fall, traders said. Yet unlike major stock exchanges that use circuit breakers to slam the brakes on trading during disruption or panic selling, crypto exchanges generally lack devices to arrest extraordinary price moves. And in contrast to foreign exchange markets, in which central banks sometimes intervene, the mostly unregulated crypto sector is left to its own devices in times of unruly trading. Last week's moves raised questions over whether circuit breakers are needed in crypto. "The tech is important," said Vinokourov at BeQuant. "You're inviting traditional, big firms to trade on platforms that may not be able to withstand the amount of trading." Circuit breakers do already exist at some exchanges. Deribit, a Panama-based derivatives exchange, in November brought in circuit breakers to counter erratic price swings, said Chief Commercial Officer Luuk Strijers. They were triggered on Thursday "to protect the market and our clients from extreme price volatility," he added. Yet many in the crypto sector say circuit breakers would be impractical for digital coin trading, which takes place across multiple exchanges, without coordinated introduction. Asked whether it operates or plans to introduce circuit breakers, Gemini said: "The cryptocurrency market does not have circuit breakers." BitMEX said it does not operate circuit breakers. "To prevent negative feedback loops, we do not use the last price of our derivatives to trigger liquidations," it added. Others cite likely opposition to controls on crypto markets, rooted in the technology's libertarian roots. "If you put circuit breakers in, you also give up the freedoms of markets to find prices on their own," said Galvin of the fund DACM. "If you're playing markets so that you can get super-high returns, you also need an approach that can sustain the bad sides."

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin rallied by 3.00% on Tuesday. Reversing a 1.90% loss from Monday, Bitcoin ended the day at $8,811.4. A bullish morning saw Bitcoin rally from an early intraday low $8,526.4 to a late afternoon intraday high $8,968.0. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $9,064.73, Bitcoin fell back to sub-$8,800 levels before finding late support. Steering well clear of the first major support level at $8,122.73, Bitcoin wrapped up the day at $8,800 levels. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from $10,000 levels to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a mixed day on Tuesday. Bitcoin Cash ABC and Bitcoin Cash SV slid by 1.40% and by 1.17% respectively to buck the trend. It was a bullish day for the rest of the majors, however. Stellar’s Lumen surged by 12.16% to lead the way, with Cardano’s ADA (+5.52%) a distant 2 nd . Binance Coin (+4.77%), Monero’s XMR (+3.42%), Tezos (+3.47%), and Tron’s TRX (+3.23%) also found strong support. EOS (+1.60%), Ethereum (+2.24%), Litecoin (+1.83%), and Ripple’s XRP (+2.47%) trailed the front runners. Through the start of the week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Monday high $245.2bn before sliding to a low $229.41bn. The market recovery on Tuesday led to a move back through to $244bn levels before easing back. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $242.50bn. Bitcoin’s dominance visited sub-67% levels before rising to a Monday high 67.78%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 67.2%. 24-hour trading volumes rose to an early Monday high $206.86bn before easing back to sub-$140bn levels. At the time of writing, 24-hr volumes stood at $136.45bn. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.71% to $8,874.4. A bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin rise from an early morning low $8,799.5 to a high $8,898.6. Story continues Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed bag for the majors. Monero’s XMR and Bitcoin Cash SV led the way early on, with gains of 0.55% and 0.52% respectively. EOS also found early support (+0.26%). It was a bearish start for the rest, however, with Bitcoin Cash ABC down by 0.80% to lead the way down. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to break back through to $8,900 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,010.80 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Tuesday’s high $8,968.0. Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely pin Bitcoin back on the day. In the event of rebound, the second major resistance level at $9,210.20 would likely limit any upside on the day. Failure to break back through to $8,900 levels would likely see Bitcoin fall back into the red. A fall through to sub-$8,770 levels would bring the first major support level at $8,569.20 into play. In the event of another extended sell-off, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$8,000 levels. The second major support level at $8,327.0 should limit any downside.

The interesting aspect here is that this is not just the US, but the markets are close to pricing a negative interest rates policy (NIRP) from theBoE, while theRBNZhas also said they are talking to their banks about NIRP.\nThere are two ways to look at this argument – the first being whether the market sees negative rates as a positive or a negative for risk assets. The second is the prospect of it happening, just how dark the world would have to be, and importantly, what role could the financial markets play in getting us to the point of negative rates.\nIn terms of the second consideration, other than Fed chair Powell, and perhaps Richard Clarida and Lael Brainard, I will take my cues on NIRP solely from the market on this matter. When the market has a vision they can influence whether NIRP materialises – just as we saw in late 2018 (Fed balance sheet taper) and in the leadup to the global COVID-19 crisis (rate cuts) – when the markets go after an idea and want change in monetary policy the moves in markets can be prolific.\nIt is a little strange how the conversation of negative rates suddenly sprang into life, as there was no one smoking gun. Granted, noted economist Kenneth Rogoff’ well-known views on negative rates have been regurgitated, and we saw ex-Minneapolis Fed president, Narayana Kocherlakota, putting out an opinion piece on the subject. But, for this to become a central theme in markets and attract the attention of multiple Fed speakers, not to mention capture a decent chunk of Stanley Druckenmiller’s overnight speech at the NY Economic Club, is bizarre.\nAt the risk of being a conspiracy theorist, it’s almost like an entity has put out a trial balloon for the market to debate and ultimately remove any taboo. Most Fed members are openly opposed to negative rates, but by openly discussing this it removes much of the shock factor well in advanced.\nThe fact is NIRP is a monetary policy tool they have in their arsenal. Perhaps it’s one that will be deployed behind yield curve control, increased QE, forward guidance or even equity purchases, but it is one they can use, and the market has it on their radar.\nAs Cleveland Fed President Loretta Mester made clear (in her speech overnight) – “we don’t view negative rates as a go-to tool for the Fed”. Fair, but its one they acknowledge and fits in well with a 2019 paper authored by Eric R.Sims and Jing Wu titled ‘Evaluating central banks’ tool kit: Past, present and future’, in which they lay **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [5200.37, 5392.31, 5014.48, 5225.63, 5238.44, 6191.19, 6198.78, 6185.07, 5830.25, 6416.31, 6734.80, 6681.06, 6716.44, 6469.80, 6242.19, 5922.04, 6429.84, 6438.64, 6606.78, 6793.62, 6733.39, 6867.53, 6791.13, 7271.78, 7176.41, 7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32, 7117.21, 7429.72, 7550.90, 7569.94, 7679.87, 7795.60, 7807.06, 8801.04, 8658.55, 8864.77, 8988.60, 8897.47, 8912.65, 9003.07, 9268.76, 9951.52, 9842.67, 9593.90, 8756.43, 8601.80, 8804.48] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

Monday's "halving" cuts the rewards given to those who "mine" bitcoin to 6.25 new coins from 12.5. The next halving will be in 2024. Bitcoin relies on so-called "mining" computers that validate blocks of transactions by competing to solve mathematical puzzles every 10 minutes. In return, the first to solve the puzzle and clear the transaction is rewarded new bitcoins. In late afternoon trading, bitcoin was last down 1.3% at $8,620.43 against the dollar on the Bitstamp platform. It briefly turned higher. "The incentive is less for miners now to mine bitcoin and they will probably switch to more profitable cryptocurrencies. So in the short term, there's going to be pressure for bitcoin," said Edward Moya, senior market analyst at OANDA in New York. "But longer term, you're probably going to see higher prices. With all the fiscal and monetary stimulus that's being pumped into the global economy, there's renewed interest from institutional traders looking for alternatives to modern government-backed currencies." Bitcoin has gained more than 20% since the beginning of the year. It touched $10,000 last week, a roughly three-month high, after Bloomberg reported that hedge fund manager Paul Tudor Jones has backed bitcoin as a hedge against inflation. Traders said the prospect of bitcoin's halving has fueled gains in the asset this year. Bitcoin two earlier "halvings"-- one in November 2012 and the other in July 2016 -- had signaled the start of bitcoin's most dramatic bull runs over a period of several years, although not before a brief sell-off. The previous two bitcoin events propelled rallies of about 10,000% from late 2012 to 2014, and roughly 2,500% from mid-2016 to the currency's all-time high just shy of $20,000 in December 2017, according to traders. Scott Freeman, co-founder and partner at crypto firm JST Capital, said volatility should subside from its recent highs now that the "halving" has happened. "Given that the halving happened without any interruption to crypto markets, we expect to see continued growth in the crypto eco-systems, especially with recent increased interest from institutional investors and the continued buying by retail investors," he added.

She has a PhD in Business Economics from Harvard. “I’ve read the plans to reopen the economy. They’re scary.” That’s how Vox journalist Ezra Klein titled his piece reviewing four plans to transition the U.S. economy out of COVID-19 lockdown. Discussing the Herculean societal shifts required to implement contact tracing, which include requiring almost every American to download a geo-tracking app to their phone, he writes: “The technological and political obstacles are massive…Who is trusted enough, in this country in this moment, to shape this?” Related:The Rise of ASICs: A Step-by-Step History of Bitcoin Mining Countries planning for the end of COVID-19 lockdowns face a host of daunting technological, government and public health challenges. One of these challenges is implementing a contact tracing system that doesn’t double as a dystopian surveillance tool. But there are more. How can governmentsquickly, credibly and transparently distribute government assistanceto individuals, especially the unbanked? How can companies enable adaptive supply chains for high-demand goods such as PPE and ventilators, including the potential for 3D printed goods? How can data be shared across independent organizations and entities, such as hospital groups, states and cities, that don’t normally collaborate? The list goes on and on. See also:Stephanie Hurder – How Blockchain Tech Can Make Coronavirus Relief More Effective As an economist advising permissionless and enterprise blockchain projects, I spend as much time explaining why DLT isnotuseful as why it is useful. What is stunning to me about the list of challenges above ishow many of them DLT could help to solve. DLT has an opportunity to add tremendous value to the United States at this time of huge societal and economic upheaval. To see why, it’s essential to understand the levers by which DLT and associated technologies, such as smart contracts and zero-knowledge proofs, create value. At Prysm Group, we have developed a framework for DLT value creation we callthe 3 Cs, which I previously discussedhere: • Coordination:A shared ledger enables the use of a unified set of data across various companies and organizations. This reduces the costs of sharing and reconciling data, and enables insights derived from multiple data sources. • Commitment:Smart contracts and distributed consensus increase the credibility of agreements to take future actions and make payments. The cost of executing and enforcing contracts goes down. • Control:Distributed storage and zero-knowledge proofs allow data owners to selectively share their sensitive or personal data, making them more likely to participate in data sharing consortia. Related:China’s National Blockchain Will Change the World Combined with tailored, use case-specific design choices, these are exactly the types of tools that can help solve major virus-driven problems. In previous columns, my colleague Cathy Barrera and I have discussed how DLT can add value bycredibly implementing automatic stimulus paymentsandenabling marketplaces for 3D printed supplies. Consider now the case of contact tracing. SIMBA Chain, a DARPA-funded government contractor, is partnering with the Stanford Medicine Healthcare Innovation Lab and Prysm Group to develop an incentive-compatible, privacy-preserving solution that won’t require users to expose their personal data. The solution, which leverages zero-knowledge proof technology to enable privacy protection, retools a secure blockchain messaging systemdeveloped for the U.S. Department of Defenseand integrates adisease detection AI algorithmleveraging consumer wearables. The ability to create projects from the ground up without relying entirely on governments, universities or large corporations has never been more important. Aside from the technology itself, the decentralized governance structures established by the DLT community provide another path to address COVID-19 induced problems such as contact tracing and adaptive supply chain management as our standard institutions struggle. As the federal government stays paralyzed, universities are overwhelmed by the transition to online instruction,companies lay off hundreds of workers, and states and localities look tocreate their own ad-hoc governing coalitions, the ability to create projects from the ground up without relying entirely on governments, universities or large corporations has never been more important. DLT projects will need to engage in smart economic design to deliver solutions to problems of this magnitude. In order to gain adoption and have real, positive impact, those projects should consider the following: The Verge tech journalist Casey Newton says adoption rates for even the most successful contact tracing applicationshave been universally low.Even the best technologies – especially contact tracing solutions – are of little use if no one will use them. Understanding how individuals make the choice of whether or not to adopt a technology, and how to incentivize them to adopt these new solutions using both monetary and non-monetary levers, is essential for any large-scale program. Designing effective incentives requires a deep understanding of how people will use (and potentially misuse) products, and expert knowledge of the systems and environments in which the product will operate. This understanding cannot develop in a bubble; it requires ongoing communication with users and subject-matter experts. Public health, law and economics insights will be essential to incorporate throughout the development process. DLT-based projects exhibitnetwork effects: their value grows as more users join. Projects that are developed in response to the current crisis may initially need to be funded with public money, but can evolve to be fiscally self-sustaining in the long run. Platform development teams should focus on bootstrapping early, building a robust user base, and then shift to monetization and profitability as the economic value delivered increases. See more:COVID-19 Tracing Apps Have to Go Viral to Work. That’s a Big Ask For example, if the privacy-preserving contact tracing system discussed above is adopted widely, this could lead to significantly reduced costs for insurance companies, who would face huge fiscal challenges if millions of people become infected with COVID-19 and require intensive medical care. While the willingness to invest upfront to launch such a project may be low due to the substantial uncertainty in the current environment, in the long term health care payers could have significant willingness to pay to sustain such a service. A product offering like this could be a valuable addition to existing large blockchain consortia already working in healthcare, such as the Health Utility Network or Synaptic Health Alliance. The challenges presented by COVID-19 require drastic and creative solutions. Blockchain and DLT have the right features to address some of the biggest obstacles to overcoming these challenges. If groups currently building with these technologies rise to the occasion using the right economic approach, DLT has the potential to shift from a niche technology to mainstream contribution. • COVID-19 Tracing Apps Have to Go Viral to Work.

Vitalik is the guy that made Ethereum. I heard him say once that there\'s an interesting ideological divide between the bitcoin space and the Ethereum project where bitcoin is all about these idealistic libertarian types ("Bitcoin is digital gold!"), while Ethereum attracts a lot more socialists. \n\nIf you look more into Ethereum, it\'s pretty easy to see why. Ethereum isn\'t trying to be a crypto*currency.* It\'s a distributed platform for building other kinds of decentralized applications on top of. Once you understand what that means, it\'s easy to let your imagination run away with the implications. \n\nOn the surface, crypto is arguably a knock against today\'s corporatists. The giant financial banks and the too-big-to-fail multi-trillion dollar corporations stand to gain a lot from the centralized federal reserve that prints out loans for them every day. So there\'s that perspective.\n\nBut on another level, the decentralized nature of ethereum opens things up even more. One thing Vitalik has been writing a lot about lately is something called "quadratic voting" and "quadratic funding." Normally, when you hold a vote for something, everyone gets one vote, and that vote is worth the same whether you care fervently about an issue or just flipped a coin to decide. Without going into detail, quadratic voting lets us measure the weight of how much a voter cares about an issue with more than two choices.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin rallied by 5.14% on Thursday. Following on from a 5.68% breakout on Wednesday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,791.0. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning low $9,266.2 before making a move. Steering clear of the first major support level at $8,938.33, Bitcoin rallied to a late morning intraday high $9,938.7. Bitcoin broke through the first major resistance level at $9,564.83 and the second major resistance level at $9,781.67. Pinned back by resistance at $10,000, Bitcoin fell back through the major resistance levels before a late recovery. The late recovery saw Bitcoin break back through the first and second major resistance levels to wrap up the day at $9,790 levels. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from $10,000 levels to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was another mixed day on Thursday. EOS rallied by 4.01% to lead the rest of the majors. Bitcin Cash ABC (+2.08%), Bitcoin Cash SV (+1.49%), Ethereum (+1.74%), Litecoin (+1.73%), and Tron’s TRX (+1.45%) also found strong support. Binance Coin (+0.86%), Monero’s XMR (+0.35%), and Ripple’s XRP (+0.96%) trailed the front runners. Cardano’s ADA (-1.22%), Stellar’s Lumen (-0.96%), and Tezos (-0.22%) bucked the trend on the day. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap rose from a Monday low $229.41bn to a Thursday high $265.28bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $260.67bn. Bitcoin’s dominance visited sub-67% levels before recovering. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 67.5%. 24-hour trading volumes rose to an early Monday high $206.86bn before easing back to sub-$140bn levels. Interest picked up on mid-week, however, with volumes returning to $190bn levels on Thursday. At the time of writing, 24-hr volumes stood at $183.73bn. Story continues This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 3.09% to $9,488.6. A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin fall from an early morning high $9,848.9 to a low $9,260.0. Bitcoin fell through the first major support level at $9,391.90 before finding support. Elsewhere, it was also a bearish start to the day for the majors. Litecoin was down by 1.91% to lead the rest of the pack into the red early on. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to break back through to $9,665 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $10,064.40 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Thursday’s high $9,938.7. Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, however, resistance at $10,000 would likely leave Bitcoin short of the major resistance levels. In the event of rebound, the second major resistance level at $10,337.8 could come into play. Failure to break back through to $9,665 levels could see Bitcoin fall deeper into the red. A fall back through the first major support level would bring the second major support level at $8,992.8 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$9,000 levels.

Key market players have adopted various growth strategies, such as partnerships and new service launches, to expand their presence further in the impact of COVID-19 on the cybersecurity market and broaden their customer base. Increase in realization for endpoint and VPN security measures drives the cybersecurity market during the COVID-19 crisis COVID-19 crisis has transformed the thought process of a company\'s management and board toward cybersecurity. Especially, SMBs, startups, and large enterprises, except technology giants, were considering cybersecurity budgets as unavoidable Capital Expenditure (CAPEX) due to regulatory and compliance measures. Several digital agencies are yet to have a cybersecurity policy in place. This crisis has exposed companies to scenarios where their IPs are at the mercy and conduct of their employees, working remotely either on office laptops with zero firewall protection or personal laptops with/without free antivirus packages. Endpoint security segment to show the highest growth rate during the forecast period in the cybersecurity market Endpoint security solutions are a combination of both Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) and Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions. Together these solutions secure endpoints and remote devices used in organizations from viruses, Trojans, and malware, as well as advanced threats, such as zero-day malware and advanced persistent threats. EDR solutions enable continuous detection of and response to advanced cybersecurity threats and considerably improve threat detection, sec **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [5014.48, 5225.63, 5238.44, 6191.19, 6198.78, 6185.07, 5830.25, 6416.31, 6734.80, 6681.06, 6716.44, 6469.80, 6242.19, 5922.04, 6429.84, 6438.64, 6606.78, 6793.62, 6733.39, 6867.53, 6791.13, 7271.78, 7176.41, 7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32, 7117.21, 7429.72, 7550.90, 7569.94, 7679.87, 7795.60, 7807.06, 8801.04, 8658.55, 8864.77, 8988.60, 8897.47, 8912.65, 9003.07, 9268.76, 9951.52, 9842.67, 9593.90, 8756.43, 8601.80, 8804.48, 9269.99, 9733.72] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

At the time of writing it is trading at around $6,680, just below the level of resistance at $6,850 which was tested on numerous occasions throughout March. A breakout and daily candle close above $7,000 would invalidate any bearish theories about Bitcoin over the coming weeks as it looks to climb back to the $7,800 mark. However, Bitcoin was rejected from $6,850 on March 20 and again on March 25, with price proceeding to fall by 20% and 16% respectively. While it’s true that a level of resistance becomes weaker upon every test, another rejection here would almost certainly confirm continuation of the recent downtrend. Potential targets to the downside remain at $6,200 and $5,900, although if momentum from the death cross begins to build Bitcoin could well be in store for a 50% correction to beneath $3,600. Much of it will also depend on the upcoming halving event, which is a historically bullish event that is just six weeks away. As block rewards for miners gets slashed so does supply going onto the market, which typically causes the price of an underlying asset to rise. Failure to surge following the halving would be bad news indeed for the mining industry who need to ensure that overheads and electricity costs are met by speculating on the price of Bitcoin.

On 31st October 2008, a paper was published called “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System”. This was authored by Satoshi Nakamoto, the inventor of Bitcoin. To date, no one knows who this person, or people, are. Story continues The paper outlined a method of using a P2P network for electronic transactions without “relying on trust”. On January 3 2009, the Bitcoin network came into existence. Nakamoto mined block number “0” (or the “genesis block”), which had a reward of 50 Bitcoins.

So demand has been reduced dramatically around the world, our $21 trillion GDP has basically been paused for 2 months, so to keep it afloat (rough math), the government had to add $3.5 trillion to keep the economy running somewhat smoothly. That's a lot of printing, you idiots probably expect inflation. Wrong, step away from the US and look at what other countries are doing, the ECB (European Central Bank) and BOJ (Bank of Japan) are having to print trillions of dollars worth of EURO and YEN to keep their economies going, along with every other country getting pounded. Not only that, but since the US dollar makes up 70% of global transactions, in liquidity terms, trillions worth of euro and yen is MUCH MUCH more than any amount Jpow feels like printing, there's no way our printing could offset what the rest of the world is doing, so inflation isn't coming. If you want proof, just look at the euro/usd (going lower) and literally ANY emerging market currency is getting absolutely clapped vs the dollar.\n\n​\n\nFurthermore, not only is US corporate debt at an all time high, but emerging markets, the eurozone, and asia has borrowed more dollars than ever before at any point in history, basically everyone around the world's debt is denominated in US DOLLARS. So what's about to happen? It's already happening, demand for US dollars is going up because everyone around the world wants to borrow more to offset cash flow concerns and pay off existing debts, which will cause the dollar to increase in value. What happens when the whole world has debt in dollars and the dollar goes up in value? DEBT BECOMES MORE EXPENSIVE. This is DEFLATION, and in particular and even more terrifying DEBT DEFLATION, a phrase that would make Jpow absolutely shit himself (and he knows its coming). This has already started before the whole beervirus nonsense, look at Venezuela and Zimbabwe, they had too much dollar debt, no one wanted to lend to them anymore and whoops, their currency is worthless now. It's going to be like a game of musical chairs for people trying to get access to dollars, starting with emerging markets and eventually moving into the more developed economies. The result: massive corporate bankruptcies, countries defaulting on debt (devaluing their currencies) and eventually a deleveraging of massive proportions. This WILL occur and no amount of printing can stop it, it's already too far gone.\n\n​\n\nIt doesn't matter what the stock market does, other markets around the world will be fucked, honestly it might cause the market to go up because of all the money fleeing other countries trying to find a safe place to live. Here are the plays assholes. TLT will go up because no matter what Jpow says, he doesn't control the fed funds rate, the market does, and US treasury bond yields have already priced in bonds going negative. CPI shows that we may see up to -3% inflation (3% deflation), meaning at .25% fed funds rate, the REAL rate is 3.25%, that is the worst thing possible during a deleveraging because it makes it harder to stimulate the economy, the fed has no choice, rates MUST go lower. Rates go lower, bond prices go up, TLT 12/18 $205c. Remember how I said scared foreign money will want to find a nice safe place to go when we go into the biggest debt crisis the world has seen in over 300 years? GLD 12/18 $240c. Finally, the dollar will rise in value as well so UUP 12/18 $28c.\n\n​\n\nAs far the actual market, we hit a high of SPY 339.08 in February, fell to a low of 218.26 by mid March, and have since then retraced EXACTLY to the 61.8% Fibonacci retracement level at 290, and started to bounce lower from there. I'm no technical analyst, but I do know history. During the greatest crashes in stock market history, 1929, 2001, 2008, the Nikkei in 1989 (Japan) this exact same thing happened, market got scared and fell to lows, then smoked that good hopium for a few weeks or month to retrace between 50% and 61.8% back to previews highs, then absolutely fell off a cliff. If you don't believe me, go look at the charts. Now, I'm personally not going to be betting on the US market falling because of the fact that its just straight up not reflecting reality and there are much better ways to trade on what's occurring (see trades above), but I PROMISE, that we will not be seeing new highs at any point any time soon.\n\n​\n\nTLDR; The world is going to shit due to the dollars over-dominance of the world market, we will soon see the worst deleveraging in human history, and may very well have to come up with a new fiat money system (probably not bitcoin, but it wouldn't hurt to have some).

Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin slid by 4.90% on Friday. Reversing a 5.14% rally from Thursday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,311.2. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin slide from an intraday high $9,848.9 to an early morning low $9,260.0. Bitcoin fell through the first major support level at $9,391.9 before recovering to $9,800 levels. The recovery was brief, however. Through the 2 nd half of the day, Bitcoin slid to a late intraday low $9,130.2. Bitcoin fell back through the first major support level to wrap up the day in the deep red. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from $10,000 levels to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a bearish day on Friday. Binance Coin (-4.33%), Bitcoin Cash SV (-4.39%), Ethereum (-4.28%) and Monero’s XMR (-4.15%) led the way down. Bitcoin Cash ABC (-2.91%), Litecoin (-2.98%), Ripple’s XRP (-3.13%), Stellar’s Lumen (-3.00%), Tezos (-2.51%), and Tron’s TRX (-3.39%) weren’t far behind. Cardano’s ADA and EOS saw more modest losses of 1.49% and 1.73% respectively. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap rose from a Monday low $229.41bn to a Thursday high $265.28bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $256.87bn. Bitcoin’s dominance visited sub-67% levels before recovering. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 67.2%. 24-hour trading volumes rose to an early Monday high $206.86bn before easing back to sub-$140bn levels. Interest picked up on mid-week, however, with volumes revisiting $190bn levels. At the time of writing, 24-hr volumes stood at $148.96bn. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.56% to $9,363.6. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning low $9,222.0 before striking a high $9,417.0. Story continues Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a bullish start to the day for the majors. Bitcoin Cash ABC and Monero’s XRM led the way with gains of 1.35% and 1.31% respectively. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through to $9,430 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,730.0 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from the morning high $9,417.0. Barring an extended crypto rebound, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $9,848.9 would likely limit any upside. In the event of rebound, the 62% FIB of $10,034 could come into play before any pullback. Failure to break back through to $9,430 levels could see Bitcoin hit reverse. A fall back through the morning low $9,222.0 would bring the first major support level at $9,011.3 into play. Barring a crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $8,711.4.

That would have made him the first professional athlete to do so, however the league shut him down. The idea was that were Dinwiddie to opt out in the final year of his contract in 2021 and find a more lucrative deal, both he and his investors would earn big . The NBA, however, said that this was a violation of the current collective bargaining agreement . Dinwiddie is in the first year of a three year, $34.3 million deal with the Nets, and was averaging 20.6 points and 6.8 assists when the league suspended operations in March due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 27-year-old has a player option in his deal for the 2021-22 season. If Dinwiddie doesn\x92t hit his fundraising goal, he said he will donate 100 percent of what was raised to charity. What fans get out of this process, other than having a small say in where he may end up playing in a few years, isn\x92t really clear. It also sounds like Dinwiddie would get to keep both the Bitcoin that was raised by fans and whatever money he earns from that future one-year deal. Story continues And, it\x92s highly likely that the league will swoop in and reject this plan for violating the CBA, too. For now, NBA fans will just have to wait and see what happens with Dinwiddie\x92s latest business venture regarding his contract.

Magistrate Judge Bruce Reinhart of the federal court of the Southern District of Florida criticized the fees claimed by the attorneys representing Ira Kleiman – who is suing Wright for 50 percent of the bitcoin (BTC) and intellectual property he owned before 2014 – as “excessive” and ruled they wouldn’t be granted in full. Kleiman’s four-man legal team filed for a total of $658,500, comprised of more than $592,000 in attorney fees, as well as roughly $66,000 in other expenses like subject experts. Related: Crypto Investor’s Case Against AT&T Over $24M SIM Hack Can Proceed, Judge Rules But finding these rates too high, the judge slashed what the Kleiman team can actually claim to $113,760 in fees and $52,000 in expenses. That’s a grand total of $165,800 – approximately a quarter of the amount originally sought. Kleiman’s suit against Wright – which claims Wright had tried to seize assets that rightfully belonged to his dead brother’s estate – has been rocky for the Australian tech entrepreneur (who also claims he’s bitcoin’s inventor, Satoshi Nakamoto). Wright has been found in contempt of court for not revealing bitcoin holdings and accused of abusing privilege to withhold documents potentially crucial to the case. In November 2019, Wright pulled out of an out of court settlement that had been tentatively agreed upon two months previously.

He also found the legal team inflated billable hours, by either overstaffing or exaggerating the time it took to perform tasks. Story continues “I find all these rates to be excessive. I am personally familiar with the hourly rates charged by the top civil litigators in Palm Beach County,” said Judge Reinhart. In one example, the judge asked why three attorneys were needed to prepare and review the response to a motion from the defendant. “It was not reasonable to have three lawyers involved to this extent to review a draft [for] a relatively straight-forward pleading,” he said. In another instance, Judge Reinhart said the attendance of three attorneys at an evidentiary hearing was excessive. The costs were awarded due to “protracted litigation over production of documents identifying Dr. Wright’s bitcoin holdings,” according to the order. Wright now has until March 30 to pay out the legal team’s reduced fees and expenses.

Responding to the economic stresses of COVID-19 , which has frozen global consumer demand and also exposed life-and-death holes in existing supply chains, the Swiss NGO best known for its glitzy Davos summit published “ Redesigning Trust: Blockchain Deployment Toolkit ,” a guide to building more resilient supply chains on distributed ledgers. The 244-page report includes checklists, guided questions, explainers and risk assessments addressing tax concerns and data privacy; forming a consortium, its ecosystem and governance; public vs. private chains; cybersecurity; interoperability; and digital identity, among other concerns. The toolkit is less a barometer for deciding if blockchain fits one’s scenario than it is a guide to implementing DLT within that scenario effectively. Related: No Visits, No Parole: Ross Ulbricht Is More Alone Than Ever During COVID-19 For example, one section considers how zero-knowledge proofs, homomorphic encryption, role-based access controls and off-chain hashing configurations may offer workarounds for the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), a sweeping internet privacy law whose right to data erasure is at seemingly existential odds with blockchain’s distributed and immutable nature. The toolkit frames blockchain as a natural technological evolution for companies and governments emerging from this public health crisis. “The case for blockchain is stronger as the COVID-19 pandemic underscores the need for more resilient global supply chains, trusted data and an economic recovery enabled through trade digitization,” the report’s authors wrote. Blockchain and the coronavirus Development of the toolkit predated the COVID-19 crisis by more than a year, but its release was fast-tracked in light of the virus, said Nadia Hewett, the forum’s blockchain and digital currency lead and one of the toolkit’s main authors. It is perhaps more timely in the shadow of the generational shock to public health and economies alike. Story continues Related: US Authorities Freeze COVID-19 Website Alleged Scammer Tried to Sell for Bitcoin The virus that first froze China did the same nearly everywhere over vast swaths of the globe. Economies rolled into turmoil as governments grappled with a false choice – shutter the businesses or risk catastrophic infection rates – before ultimately siding with public health, a choice even Federal Reserve researchers called an economic no-brainer. Consequently, the coronavirus reshaped global trade in ways that are still developing and whose long-term implications will not fully be known for months or more. Along with supply chains frozen by their economies’ respective inactivity, there’s also questions of overall supply chain resiliency that the World Economic Forum has itself argued blockchain can fix. Read More: Why the World Economic Forum Is Creating a Blockchain ‘Bill of Rights’ Blockchain “is not a silver bullet,” Hewett said. “It’s not going to solve it all, but it absolutely has features that can help with issues that’s typical in epidemics and pandemics.” Hewett said blockchain could help overcome medical equipment provenance issues that opportunistic scammers have exploited, tricking small-scale orders and even medical centers into spending emergency funds on worthless fake masks. This is a problem blockchain’s peer-to-peer immutability can address, Hewett said. On a broader scale, Hewett said the pandemic may make companies of all sizes reconsider their technological reliance networks and “push ahead” with improvements they began developing during past crises but fizzled as triggers event receded. COVID-19 appears to be a more resilient call to arms, she said. “This time we really do see a big momentum behind making sure this time that they capture the momentum and that we bake into our solutions day-to-day elements but also that could help during a disruption,” she said. “Post-COVID, that future state, let’s work toward and shape the outcome in a way that promotes interoperability, integrity, and inclusivity.” Public-private partnership The WEF worked with both private companies and government entities to ensure the guide provided the most helpful advice. “You can use it to navigate end-to-end for deployment guidance, you can choose the specific topic of interest for you or your team,” Hewett said. Hewett also noted the lag some global regulators have had in coming to grips with this new technology class. “These technologies are moving incredibly fast,” Hewett said. “Your traditional ways of regulation and waiting are not going to work.” The guidebook tries to inject “agility” into that regulatory dance by compiling the experiences of 80 companies, 40 use cases and 20 governments that have faced blockchain-for-supply-chain questions before. Read More: World Economic Forum Looks to Blockchain for Supply Chain Woes Hewett said this public and private sector collaboration was critical. The toolkit “covers topics which aren’t always that obvious to technologists or business leaders,” she said, and offers guidance informed by others’ mistakes. One startup’s late-stage realization that its upcoming blockchain deployment had tax implications led the guide to include an entire section on tax considerations, Hewett said. “The toolkit as a minimum forces organizations to ask themselves those questions and make sure it is considered,” she said. Collective deployment experiences, now compiled in a public document, will help small and medium sized enterprises (SME) cut past marketing storylines to reach the how-to of blockchain implementation, a previously costly proposition, she said. “We can put this in the hands of those parts of the world, those parts of the supply chains, where they’re not empowered with information to negotiate good positions for themselves. We really hope to see this put power back in the hands of those SMEs,” she said. Related Stories COVID-19 Tracing Apps Have to Go Viral to Work.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['VANCOUVER, British Columbia, May 19, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. ( DMGI.V ) (DMGGF:OTC US) ( 6AX.F ) (“ DMG ” or the “ Company ”), a diversified blockchain and technology company, is pleased to present its new corporate presentation including the Company‘s updated operational business outlook. In advance of its conference call tomorrow, DMG is providing an update on its outlook and plans for the fiscal years 2020 to 2023. DMG has raised its financial expectations to reflect stronger than anticipated market developments, with an expectation that trends will continue to significantly favor DMG’s business model in the years ahead, while remaining competitive in an increasingly innovation driven and energy cost dependent bitcoin mining industry. The Company expects its self-mining compute power to increase following the strong growth in bitcoin price. As a result, the Company is now raising its business projections accordingly. Increasing self-mining compute power will require the Company to secure sufficient capital through equity, debt, or joint ventures in order to purchase additional miners, add more megawatt capacity to the Company’s existing mining facility, and potentially acquire a second or third mining facility. Self-Mining Division DMG intends to expand its self-mining efforts with a goal to becoming one of the largest North American bitcoin mining companies by compute power. DMG will continue its strategy to blend self-mining with hosted mining for third-party clients. This model allows the Company to earn consistent revenues from hosting, and at the same time benefit from surges in BTC value from self-mining. DMG forecasts that approximately 65% of its mining capacity at its facility will be for self-mining by the end of 2021. DMG’s forward-looking forecasts are based on adding self-mining compute power on a consistent basis over the next three years. DMG will acquire mining hardware at regular intervals (subject to securing sufficient capital to make such purchases) to ensure that the fleet includes the most efficient hardware available at all times and to avoid the need to replace the entire fleet simultaneously in the future. Story continues Hosted Mining DMG currently serves a variety of hosted mining clients and intends to significantly grow its hosted mining operations by encouraging existing clients to upgrade their miners, and to add additional hosted mining clients through its business development and marketing efforts. Other Business Divisions DMG continues to develop and license its proprietary software products including Mine Manager, Blockseer, and Walletscore, and is currently working to merge Blockseer and Walletscore into a single platform. In the near future, DMG will provide more comprehensive details on these software products. ‘Wazabi’ is still in the early stages of development and has not yet been commercialized. Soon DMG will also provide more comprehensive details on Wazabi’s progress and outlook. Competitive Advantage DMG owns its own 84MW substation and currently has in place infrastructure to support 45MW of mining.

Statements about the Company’s plans to increase petahash (PH) by self-mining, securing financing to complete the Company’s business plans, adding more megawatts, acquiring additional facilities, price of bitcoin, plans and intentions, other potential transactions, acquisition of customers, product development, events, courses of action, and the potential of the Company’s technology and operations, among others, are all forward-looking information. Forward-looking statements consist of statements that are not purely historical, including any statements regarding beliefs, plans, expectations or intentions regarding the future. Such information can generally be identified by the use of forwarding looking wording such as “may”, “expect”, “estimate”, “anticipate”, “intend”, “believe” and “continue” or the negative thereof or similar variations. The reader is cautioned that assumptions used in the preparation of any forward-looking information may prove to be incorrect. Events or circumstances may cause actual results to differ materially from those predicted, as a result of numerous known and unknown risks, uncertainties, and other factors, many of which are beyond the control of the Company, including but not limited to, business, economic and capital market conditions; the ability to manage operating expenses, which may adversely affect the Company’s financial condition; the ability to remain competitive as other better financed competitors develop and release competitive products; regulatory uncertainties; access to equipment; market conditions and the demand and pricing for products; the demand and pricing of bitcoins; security threats, including a loss/theft of DMG’s bitcoins; DMG’s relationships with its customers, distributors and business partners; the inability to add more power to DMG’s facilities; DMG’s ability to successfully define, design and release new products in a timely manner that meet customers’ needs; the ability to attract, retain and motivate qualified personnel; competition in the industry; the impact of technology changes on the products and industry; failure to develop new and innovative products; the ability to successfully maintain and enforce our intellectual property rights and defend third-party claims of infringement of their intellectual property rights; the impact of intellectual property litigation that could materially and adversely affect the business; the ability to manage working capital; and the dependence on key personnel. DMG may not actually achieve its plans, projections, or expectations. Such statements and information are based on numerous assumptions regarding present and future business strategies and the environment in which the Company will operate in the future, including the demand for its products, the ability to successfully develop software, that there will be no regulation or law that will prevent the Company from operating its business, anticipated costs, the ability to secure sufficient capital to complete its business plans, the ability to achieve goals and the price of bitcoin. Given these risks, uncertainties and assumptions, you should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements. DMG’s forward-looking projections are based on securing necessary financing through equity, debt or joint venture structures in order to finance required investments for new mining equipment until 2023 and beyond. Currently, the Company does not have sufficient capital or financing available to complete the entire expansion through 2023 and plans to seek the required funds in the relevant fiscal periods. However, DMG may face difficulties obtaining sufficient financing and in a timely manner to support the Company’s future growth g **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [6185.07, 5830.25, 6416.31, 6734.80, 6681.06, 6716.44, 6469.80, 6242.19, 5922.04, 6429.84, 6438.64, 6606.78, 6793.62, 6733.39, 6867.53, 6791.13, 7271.78, 7176.41, 7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32, 7117.21, 7429.72, 7550.90, 7569.94, 7679.87, 7795.60, 7807.06, 8801.04, 8658.55, 8864.77, 8988.60, 8897.47, 8912.65, 9003.07, 9268.76, 9951.52, 9842.67, 9593.90, 8756.43, 8601.80, 8804.48, 9269.99, 9733.72, 9328.20, 9377.01, 9670.74, 9726.58, 9729.04] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

In an effort to address the necessity to reduce the spread of COVID-19 the Company is enhancing its line of wellness products with the addition of triple layer, quality face masks. Packaged in units of 3, these protective polyester and cotton fabric masks provide a soft covering to the nasal cavities, providing a comfortable layer of protection, at a time when growing national mask inclusive mandates continue evolving daily. Mask Banner To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit: https://orders.newsfilecorp.com/files/6746/55405_71c2e20374295be8_001full.jpg The mask outer layer is water resistance polyester which also provides protection from UV and dust. The inner two layers are cotton blend and are anti-bacterial and anti-dust. They are washable and reusable thus reducing waste and more environmental friendly. The masks are available in different colors and sizes and can be purchased at www.wanderbrands.com . Purchases made on Wander Brands store will also earn customer reward points which can be redeemed as cash discounts or digital tokens in the future. Customers may also pay for purchases via Bitcoin via BitPay. The Company is also working to make the product available on other online marketplaces in the near future. Wholesale and private label masks are also available for companies and patrons seeking originality, and customization with corporate logos, slogans and other statement opportunities, strategically designed to impact corporate brand recognition and enhance familiarity. Although not intended for medical use the masks are well-constructed for the needs of the general public. Higher grade masks such as N95 and KN95 are also available for healthcare organizations, selected markets or consumers outside of the US. As the country gears up for an economic grand re-opening, protective new operating procedures are being implemented to uphold high level respiratory protection standards in the workplace. Starting May 4th, Costco is among the first requiring all shoppers to wear face masks while inside the popular warehouse club, an indicator of what can be expected as society approaches the threshold of a new, much more guarded environment. "We now know from recent studies that a significant portion of individuals with coronavirus lack symptoms ("asymptomatic"), and that even those who eventually develop symptoms ("pre-symptomatic") can transmit the virus to others before showing symptoms," according to the advisory published by the CDC. "This means that the virus can spread between people interacting in close proximity - for example, speaking, coughing, or sneezing - even if those people are not exhibiting symptoms." The report continued: "In light of this new evidence, CDC recommends wearing cloth face coverings in public settings where other social distancing measures are difficult to maintain (e.g., grocery stores and pharmacies) especially in areas of significant community-based transmission," the advisory stated. Accordingly, New York Governor Andrew Cuomo said that he would start requiring people in New York to wear masks or face coverings in public whenever social distancing was not possible. "These restrictions that I have laid out must be followed throughout the state," Mr. Murphy, New Jersey Governor, said last week. "We are taking the step to protect both customers and essential workers." Story continues The mandates were the latest public safety measures from two states that are at the epicenter of the pandemic in the United States. New York and New Jersey have worked in tandem since the outbreak reached the region, shuttering nonessential businesses at the same time and recently forming a coalition with neighboring states to coordinate the reopening of their economies. "New workplace safety protocols are being established such as health screenings and face coverings. They are expected to remain in place for the foreseeable future. We are pleased to provide the high quality face masks to address this need and play a role in keeping everyone safe. Additional safety product offerings are also being considered as the markets and demands are identified," stated Miki Takeuchi, CEO.

The removal cuts off Voatz’ access to HackerOne’s network of “ethical hackers” who trade their expertise in finding code faults for cash. HackerOne partners with corporations interested in shoring up potential security vulnerabilities. Across 1,800 total relationships and eight years, though, it’s never before kicked a partner out, said representative Samantha Spielman. The news was first reported Monday by CyberScoop . Related: Can Bitcoin Survive the Climate Change Revolution? Spielman said Voatz’ breach of “partnership standards” made the relationship unviable, despite the program’s past bug-hunting successes. “As a platform, we work tirelessly to foster that mutually beneficial relationship between security teams and the researcher community,” she said. Spielman declined to elaborate on Voatz’ standards breach. Voatz told CoinDesk in a statement it regrets the relationship’s “temporary pause.” It said that HackerOne had caved to a “small group of researchers who, along with a few other members of the community, believe Voatz reported a researcher to the FBI.” “This falsehood and misinformation has been a source of animosity toward Voatz and our partners, who face consistent attacks from these researchers,” the statement said. Related: Fired Employees’ Harassment Suit Against Tron Will Move to Private Arbitration West Virginia Secretary of State Mac Warner said in October 2019 the Federal Bureau of Investigation was investigating an attempted breach of the app during a pilot program in 2018. West Virginia has used the app in multiple pilots, and Warner maintains that no votes have been altered to date. Rocky year Voatz came under the spotlight in mid-February when a group of MIT researchers released a scathing write-up highlighting myriad apparent security flaws in the app. They alleged Voatz was essentially bunk, criticized its transparency and called up election officials considering the app to maybe think twice. Voatz responded with its own criticism. In a sarcasm-laced Feb. 13 press release , it called the researchers’ report unfair and their “bad faith recommendations” irreparably flawed. However, earlier this month Trail of Bits published a report supporting the MIT researchers’ claims. Voatz had commissioned Trail of Bits to analyze its platform. Voatz began working with HackerOne in August 2018 and has paid out over $6,000 to researchers through “HackerOne and other avenues” since. It plans to announce its own bounty program “in the coming days.” Story continues West Virginia has dropped its partnership with the company.

With Swiss credibility of over 50 years, while uncertainty took over stock markets and currencies EX all over the world due to the COVID19, Bitcoin is no more a stranger, and it's here to stay. ZURICH, SWITZERLAND / ACCESSWIRE / March 24, 2020/ According toBrookfield EuroSwiss, Bitcoin Holders, who want to minimize risks of Bitcoin rate crash while having the potential to profit when Bitcoin rate increases, now have the perfect program offered by the Swiss giant. As the first 2 Billion allocated by the private group Brookfield EuroSwiss are strictly operated under the swiss standards and record, it is not open for everyone but not restricted to just EU citizens. The requirements for interested bitcoin investors are; to be over the age of 21, have no criminal record, have a valid passport, and be available to join the program for at least six months. The COVID19 pandemic has had a massive influence on the digital financial platforms, and many of the wallets, exchanges, and debt-based accounts demonstrate significant growth of their activity, volume, and amount of transactions. However, after the growth we saw, like in many currencies, the response of Bitcoin to COVID19 was a steep crash and caused losses in the value of hundreds of millions daily. The Brookfield BTC hedging program was launched to protect the BTC holders and investors and provide the securities to the BTC players to cross with confidence the times between crashes and corrections. More than that, BTC holders and investors enjoy both worlds, hedge the losses, but not give up the profit. With the Bitcoin becoming eligible for the European Bank to trade and for Brookfield - EuroSwiss to offer a Bitcoin-based hedging instrument, it is only a matter of time before BTC becomes the common currency in use by everyone. With this development, demand and stability will come. The Brookfield Hedging program hedge not only the losses but also the profits. It allows the investors to choose the rate of exposure, and with direct correlation, your profit limitation will be determined. For instance, if you want to hedge your BTC EX rate to a maximum loss of -10%, your profit limitation will be a maximum of 28%. Brookfield has created a brilliant structure that allows BTC investors to send their bitcoin with full corporate confidence.Brookfield EuroSwississues a full unconditional corporate guarantee in value that equals the maximum profit limits. In essence, this way, Bitcoin investors have complete security and assurance that Brookfield will meet all of its obligations by the hedging program. The hedging program is excellent news, not only for the BTC holders and investors but to the general Bitcoin market. As a market leader like Brookfield EuroSwiss launches such an instrument, with over 50 years of Swiss credibility in the volume of 2 Billion EUR at first, it is evident that Bitcoin is here to stay.

What is meant by this, is that of all now-spent UTXOs, the coinbase reward they spent in that block now holds the record for being the longest-held. \n\n\nThis is a pretty cool title to hold, the individual who owned that UTXO had been sitting on it since the absolute earliest days of the Bitcoin network. When that block was mined, BTC had no value, beyond fascinating a handful of crypto and computer nerds around the world. When spent, the output was worth almost $500,000 USD.

Kaj Burchardi is a managing director with BCG and leads the blockchain practice of BCG/Platinion globally. Digital currencies hold a long-term promise to change the way nations, corporations and people transact value. Some of them – combining both cryptocurrency benefits (disintermediation, high speed and low cost of transactions) as well as qualities of traditional currencies (e.g. price stability and being able to act as legal tender) – challenge traditional financial systems at the core. While first-generation digital currencies deployed by consortia of industry players may only deliver incremental changes such as the reduction in money movement prices and lowering the cost of capital for unbanked, adoption across nations through CDBC 2.0 holds the potential to unlock significant value available for first movers to capture. In our recent work , we have analyzed key notable projects and developments around digital currencies, distilling them into key Digital Currency archetypes (see exhibit 1). Related: To See Libra’s Potential, Look at the Philippines, Not the US Throughout our analysis, we have developed and applied the Total Social Impact framework (see exhibit 2) to understand the societal value chain impact of the introduction of digital currencies as well as potential effects of adoption by nations, central banks, corporations and individual users. Specific underlying drivers have been defined and evaluated for each TSI dimension. CDBC 2.0 is the second step in the evolution of CBDCs: a new, most impactful (see exhibit 4) form of money issued digitally by one or many central banks using blockchain technology, interoperable and programmable by design. Currently, the responsibility for the monetary system lies under the jurisdiction of nation-states and international agreements. For a digital currency to be adopted in any state, it must first comply with the regulations of the state. Central banks, while curious about CBDCs, are wary of digital currencies that introduce decentralization of ownership or governance, and that makes traditional centralized governance a challenging task. Story continues See also: Ajit Tripathi – 4 Reasons Central Banks Should Launch Retail Digital Currencies Related: Spiritual Reflections on the Bitcoin Halving But CBDCs will fail if they don’t implement and benefit from arguably the most revolutionary aspect brought by bitcoin and blockchain technologies: decentralization. Initial CDBC projects create incrementally better alternatives to the current financial system by enabling peer-to-peer transactions, but they are still keeping the governance centralized and circulation controlled. The major incentives for consumers to adopt a central bank-issued cryptocurrency will be based on decentralized governance and open circulation system. Public trust in government and banking institutions has dropped since the financial crisis of 2008. Therefore, there is room for a digital currency that has no central authority in its usual central bank sense which determines e.g. the borrowing rate or supply of money in circulation. Central banks wield a high level of power over national currencies.

Block.one, which raised more than $4 billion in a yearlong initial coin offering (ICO) in 2018, said Wednesday it had hired EOS New York founders Rick Schlesinger and Kevin Rose, as well as their team. Block.one says the former EOS New York staffers will work on community outreach initiatives. “In our new role, we plan to listen to and work with communities to leverage Block.one’s digital asset positions to maximize the health and security of various public networks,” Schlesinger and Rose said in a statement. Related: Steem Community Mobilizes Popular Vote in Battle With Justin Sun EOS New York was one of the most prominent of the first generation of block producers – the 21-largest entities, by staking amount, that secure the EOS blockchain. BPs contributed to the governance of the network. When it came time to replace the interim constitution, EOS New York proposed the simplified EOS User Agreement (EUA) which, among other things, omitted a clause that prohibited BPs from buying votes from the community. Passed in April 2019, new entities started promising token holders a share of the block reward in return for their votes. Many original BPs quickly lost market share, with EOS New York falling from fourth place to 33rd by the end of October 2019, for example.

In November, EOS New York said it had discovered that six current BPs were actually controlled by a single entity. Still, vote-buying on EOS continues to grow unabated; new services have even popped-up making it easier for BPs to distribute block rewards with those who voted for them.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['(Bloomberg Opinion) -- The coronavirus has disrupted the world in very large ways. While that battle has been waged, however, another event has almost been missed: the birth of a new kind of fiat currency, which could forever reshape the relationship between money, economic power and geopolitical clout. An official Chinese digital yuan, more than five years in the making, is now in pilot runs to slowly start replacing the physical legal tender. If the experiment succeeds, this new cash, valued the same as the familiar banknotes bearing Mao Zedong\x92s image, will become the world\x92s first sovereign token to reside exclusively in the ether. The trials are taking place just as the blame game around the coronavirus deepens mistrust between the U.S. and China. With President Donald Trump warning that Washington would respond if Beijing intervenes against protests and democratic movements in Hong Kong, chances of a detente from last year\x92s trade war are fading. Outside the People\x92s Republic, the big question is if the digital yuan is a challenger to the dollar. Within China, though, there\x92s a more mundane explanation for why Beijing wants to turn banknotes in circulation into virtual tokens. Chinese consumers have bypassed both computers and credit cards to embrace mobile payment apps, which have gone on to spawn large money-market funds investing in high-yielding wealth-management products. This has led to the accumulation of risks in opaque shadow banking. Bringing them out in the open requires a leg up for traditional lenders in payments, an area where financial technology has left them far behind. The digital yuan, which will be pushed out to consumers via banks, seeks to restore this missing balance; it will allow authorities to \x93regulate an overstretched debt market more effectively,\x94 says DBS Group Holdings Ltd. economist Nathan Chow. Still, there\x92s also a power play. It isn\x92t a coincidence that China\x92s project picked up speed last year as Facebook Inc. announced Libra. The proposed stablecoin promised to hold its value against a basket of major official currencies rather than gyrating wildly like Bitcoin. When it looked like regulators in the U.S. and elsewhere would nix this synthetic global cryptocurrency, the Libra Association curbed the scope of its undertaking. But the idea of \x93a regulated global network for cost-effective retail payments,\x94 as described by Singapore state investor Temasek Holdings Pte, a new member of Libra\x92s Geneva-based governing body, remains alive. For Beijing to shake the dollar\x92s hegemony, it has to pre-empt Silicon Valley from taking the pole position. Story continues Hence the hurry for China\x92s test runs. According to media reports, half the May transport subsidy for Suzhou municipal employees will be in the form of digital currency electronic payment, or DCEP, as it\x92s being called in the absence of a catchier moniker. The pilot plan in Xiong\x92an, a satellite city of Beijing, includes coffee shops, fast food, retailers, theaters and bookstores, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. has noted. The other trials are reserved for Chengdu and Shenzhen. Thanks to Alipay and WeChat Pay, 80% of Chinese smartphone users whip out their mobiles to make payments, more than anywhere in the world. To them, the DCEP wallets being provided by the big four state banks should seem much the same. But there are differences. In this new system, a low-value transaction can go through even if both parties are offline. Also, this is sovereign liability, safe if an intermediary goes bankrupt. The big four lenders \x97 and later fintech firms \x97 will distribute the tokens, but the funds won\x92t reside in bank accounts. This will be unlike existing payment apps that only move one institution\x92s IOUs to another. Beijing was going to launch the digital money even before the pandemic. However, adoption could be faster now because of people\x92s fear of catching an infection from handling cash. Also, it\x92s possible to trace in real time whether an anti-virus subsidy, given out in tokenized form, is reaching the target. Once it has, the tracking would be \x93turned off\x94 to ensure corporate and household spending stays anonymous, Goldman says. Strictly speaking, though, the anonymity of cash will no longer exist. Authorities can look under the hood of pseudonymous transactions for unwanted activity, an outcome far removed from the vision that drove libertarians (and money launderers) to cryptocurrencies in the first place. With the outbreak giving legitimacy to intrusive physical contact tracing, the case for financial tracing gets even stronger. Exchange of digital yuan between customers and merchants will pop up on a centralized ledger, and go through far more swiftly than in Bitcoin-style setups that rely on widely distributed ledgers of asset ownership. Every nation projects power when others desire its money \x97 something that costs the home country nothing to produce. But as with any digital network, the sovereign tokens that take off first could end up winning disproportionately. The digital yuan could find customers overseas, especially in places where China is making belt-and-road investments. For one thing, they wouldn\x92t have to pay banks fat fees for running the $124 trillion-a-year business-to-business international transfers market. By distributing digital currency through banks, China has given its big institutions a chance to match the payment technology of fintech rivals. But it\x92s possible that a central bank in another country would bypass intermediaries altogether, potentially making the state the monopoly supplier of money to retail customers. That, as I wrote in December, could upend banking. The digital yuan may have started modestly, but it might pave the way for changes that are both ambitious and long outlast the coronavirus.

While that battle has been waged, however, another event has almost been missed: the birth of a new kind of fiat currency, which could forever reshape the relationship between money, economic power and geopolitical clout.\nAn official Chinese digital yuan, more than five years in the making, is now in pilot runs to slowly start replacing the physical legal tender. If the experiment succeeds, this new cash, valued the same as the familiar banknotes bearing Mao Zedong’s image, will become the world’s first sovereign token to reside exclusively in the ether.\nThe trials are taking place just as the blame game around the coronavirus deepens mistrust between the U.S. and China. With President Donald Trump warning that Washington would respond if Beijing intervenes against protests and democratic movements in Hong Kong, chances of a detente from last year’s trade war are fading.\nOutside the People’s Republic, the big question is if the digital yuan is a challenger to the dollar. Within China, though, there’s a more mundane explanation for why Beijing wants to turn banknotes in circulation into virtual tokens.\nChinese consumers have bypassed both computers and credit cards to embrace mobile payment apps, which have gone on to spawn large money-market funds investing in high-yielding wealth-management products. This has led to the accumulation of risks in opaque shadow banking. Bringing them out in the open requires a leg up for traditional lenders in payments, an area where financial technology has left them far behind. The digital yuan, which will be pushed out to consumers via banks, seeks to restore this missing balance; it will allow authorities to “regulate an overstretched debt market more effectively,” says DBS Group Holdings Ltd. economist Nathan Chow.\nStill, there’s also a power play. It isn’t a coincidence that China’s project picked up speed last year as Facebook Inc. announced Libra. The proposed stablecoin promised to hold its value against a basket of major official currencies rather than gyrating wildly like Bitcoin. When it looked like regulators in the U.S. and elsewhere would nix this synthetic global cryptocurrency, the Libra Association curbed the scope of its undertaking. But the idea of “a regulated global network for cost-effective retail payments,” as described by Singapore state investor Temasek Holdings Pte, a new member of Libra’s Geneva-based governing body, remains alive. For Beijing to shake the dollar’s hegemony, it has to pre-empt Silicon Valley from taking the pole position.\nHence the hurry for China’s test runs. According to media reports, half the May transport subsidy for Suzhou municipal employees will be in the form of digital currency electronic payment, or DCEP, as it’s being called in the absence of a catchier moniker. The pilot plan in Xiong’an, a satellite city of Beijing, includes coffee shops, fast food, retailers, theaters and bookstores, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. has noted. The other trials are reserved for Chengdu and Shenzhen.\nThanks to Alipay and WeChat Pay, 80% of Chinese smartphone users whip out their mobiles to make payments, more than anywhere in the world. To them, the DCEP wallets being provided by the big four state banks should seem much the same. But there are differences. In this new system, a low-value transaction can go through even if both parties are offline. Also, this is sovereign liability, safe if an intermediary goes bankrupt.

That is, as they say, good for bitcoin. Schnorr/Taproot has made a great deal of progress recently, moving from a theoretical privacy and scaling idea into actual code . But while the community is very excited about its future, the change is rather confusing. Why? Because it bundles together several different technologies proposed over the years and each one is technically and conceptually unique. First, there are Merklized Abstract Syntax Trees (MASTs), a smart contract technology developers have been talking about since 2013 . Then we add Schnorr signatures, a scaling change first proposed in 2015 by Pieter Wuille, and finally Taproot, a privacy technology built on top of both, proposed in 2018 by Greg Maxwell. Related: Bitcoin Tracks Stocks Up to $7.4K Before Sliding Back to $7.1K See also: Zoom Has Privacy Issues, Here Are Some Alternatives Privacy and scaling are two things bitcoin still lacks. But as badly as these changes are needed, massive updates like this one are hard and, as such, are few and far between in bitcoin. One thorny issue is simply deciding what would go into the upgrade. “I think the biggest struggle in the process was to come up with the exact set of features to deploy at the same time,” Blockstream researcher Tim Ruffing told CoinDesk. Related: A New Ultrasonic Hack Can Exploit Your Siri Here’s a rundown of what changes made the cut, and what didn’t. How big is this update? First, we must remember this update is helpful but it’s not a magic pill that instantly morphs bitcoin into a super-scalable and private currency, as experts debated on Twitter recently . “It’s the right thing to do these improvements but they won’t suddenly make bitcoin a private currency,” Ruffing said. There will be some clear improvements. First, more complex types of transactions will be easier to use. In the most typical transaction, one person “signs” a transaction, proving he or she owns the bitcoin and can send it. “Multi-signature” (multi-sig) transactions, on the other hand, require more than one person to sign a transaction. This update will make it easier for multi-sig users. Story continues “It’s likely that more wallets will support multi-sig because it’s cheaper and more private with BIP-taproot,” Blockstream researcher Jonas Nick told CoinDesk. Multi-signature has many important use cases. First, the multi-sig dependent lightning network could potentially speed up and scale payments for bitcoin, solving massive issues with the digital currency. If lightning proves to be the future of bitcoin, this improvement could have a large impact by making these transactions smaller in size and cheaper to process. See also: P2P Exchange Hodl Hodl Takes First Step in Bringing Private Bitcoin Trades to BlueWallet Users Further, multi-sig transactions using the new technology will look the same as normal transactions. So even though the bitcoin blockchain is public and anyone can easily look up a particular transaction, with this technology viewers will have no idea that these transactions actually represent lightning channels. “Lightning channel openings and cooperatives are indistinguishable on the blockchain from normal payments. This also means that opening a lightning channel is just as expensive as a normal payment,” Nick said. Finally, the change would pave the way for other improvements that weren’t possible before. One such possible next step is the addition of “cross-input aggregation,” another way of scaling bitcoin by as much as 25 to 30 percent . Schnorr for more efficient signatures Understanding these upgrades requires some understanding of how bitcoin works. Only with the right “private key” (like an access code) can someone “sign” a transaction, thereby sending bitcoin to someone else. This process produces a “signature” that is attached to the transaction. The beauty is that anyone in the world can verify that this signature was produced by the right key We touched on a more complicated version of this, multi-signature transactions, where more than one person is required to sign a transaction. When such a transaction is signed using ECDSA (bitcoin’s current signature algorithm), it produces a separate signature for each person. But this might be unnecessary. With the help of Schnorr signatures, it is possible to squash all of this data into a single signature using key aggregation. The biggest struggle in the process was to come up with the exact set of features to deploy at the same time. This makes the special type of bitcoin transaction smaller in size — to the tune of 30 to 75 percent, according to Bitcoin Optech, an organization that helps bitcoin businesses adopt new scaling technologies like Schnorr/Taproot. These sorts of scaling technologies are important because downloading the full bitcoin blockchain is the most secure and trust-minimizing way of using bitcoin. But that process requires more than 300 gigabytes of storage space. Schnorr signatures also allow for something called “batch validation,” making it possible to verify that multiple signatures are valid, saving time. But just as important is what this upgrade leaves out in terms of Schnorr. Developers have long proposed using “cross-input signature aggregation” to build Schnorr signatures into bitcoin transactions. Usually, each transaction requires more than one signature, one for each “input,” which is roughly equivalent to one bill out of a handful of them passed over to a cashier. But what if we could squash all these signatures for every transaction together? Schnorr signatures theoretically allow for this. But this feature will have to wait for another time, as developers are still working through some security problems with adding this to bitcoin. Though with Schnorr added as a signature option in bitcoin, this kind of functionality will be one step closer. “This could be done in a future upgrade,” Ruffing said. MASTs: better smart contracts Merkelized Abstract Syntax Trees (MASTs) aren’t in the name of the upcoming bitcoin upgrade, but it’s still a cool technology that developers have been talking about for a long time. MASTs improve smart contracts in bitcoin, making it easier for users to set more complicated conditions for a transaction. Think back to the multi-signature option we talked about earlier, where two people instead of just one need to sign a transaction. Then imagine a situation in which you want to say a bitcoin can’t be retrieved until after a certain date. A user might want to combine these conditions at once. That’s where MASTs come in. Right now, when one of these scripts is “redeemed” the full script is squashed into a transaction, taking up a lot of room and showing the whole world what conditions the user used to lock up the bitcoin. MASTs arrange these conditions in a new way that looks like a tree. Each branch of the tree holds a different condition a user could meet to spend the bitcoin. Then, only a hash of the tip of the tree is included in the bitcoin blockchain instead of all the script conditions. This is more private because only the script used will hit the blockchain. All in all, MASTs make it much easier and cheaper to lock up bitcoin with these more complicated rulesets. Taproot gives a privacy boost Taproot builds on MASTs and Schnorr to create smart contracts with better privacy. Generally, right now, transactions with complex scripts using MAST would really stand out on the blockchain. Even if MAST itself is more privacy-preserving, the format is a bit different for these transactions so it’s easy to tell if someone is using a script or not. Using the magic of signature aggregation Schnorr provides, Taproot would make these transactions look just like normal transactions. But it doesn’t work for every MAST contract, only for cooperative spends, where one branch of the Merkle tree is a multi-sig transaction, which is successfully used. If any of the other branches are used, then this privacy benefit disappears. That said, developers expect the cooperative spend use case will be the most common use . Then there’s Tapscript, which could make it easier to make further improvements to the scripts we’ve talked about in the future. “While the BIP-tapscript changes don’t immediately benefit the average bitcoin user, they are designed to make updates to the script system easier in the future,” Nick said. Right now, developers are battle testing this bundle of new technologies. So far no major problems have been found, but developers are making it the best they can before they try to add it to bitcoin with a soft fork . “Just recently we’ve suggested a few minor changes to make the Schnorr signing algorithm more resistant to implementation mistakes and physical attacks,” Nick said. As developers grow and expand bitcoin’s technology, it’s changes like these that will truly make the platform usable for developers and financial professionals alike.

Reversing a 0.15% gain from Saturday, Bitcoin ended the week down by 9.91% to $8,710.10. A bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to a mid-morning intraday high $9,300.0 before hitting reverse. Bitcoin came up against the first major resistance level at $9,295.47 before falling to a late afternoon low $8,859.2. The reversal saw Bitcoin fall through the first major support level at $9,064.27 and the second major support level at $8,952.93. Finding late support, Bitcoin briefly recovered to a high $9,075 before a final hour sell-off. The sell-off saw Bitcoin slide back through the first major support level and second major support level to an intraday low $8,688.0. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from the 62% FIB of $10,034 to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was also a bearish end to the week on Sunday. Cardano’s ADA slid by 6.80% to lead the way down. Bitcoin Cash ABC (-5.47%), Litecoin (-4.08%), Monero’s XMR (-4.06%), Stellar’s Lumen (-4.74%), Tezos (-4.31%), and Tron’s TRX (-5.15% weren’t far behind. Binance Coin (-3.09%), Bitcoin Cash SV (-3.77%), EOS (-2.84%), Ethereum (-3.38%), and Ripple’s XRP (-3.27%) saw relatively modest losses on the day. Sunday’s sell-off delivered mixed results for the week, however. Cardano’s ADA and Tezos bucked the trend, with gains of 0.20% and 0.81% respectively, Monday through Sunday. It was a week in the red for the rest of the majors, however. Bitcoin Cash ABC and Stellar’s Lumen led the way down, with losses of 7.72% and 7.04% respectively. EOS (-4.92%), Monero’s XMR (-6.72%), Ripple’s XRP (-4.45%), and Tron’s TRX (-5.43%) weren’t far behind. Binance Coin (-1.90%), Bitcoin Cash SV (-2.71%), Ethereum (-3.58%) and Litecoin (-3.75%) saw relatively modest losses for the week. Story continues In the week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Monday low $268.50bn before falling to a Sunday low $239.63bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $242.29bn. Bitcoin’s dominance rose to a Monday high 68.31% before falling to a Sunday low 66.51%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 66.64%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.83 to $8,782.2. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning low $8,620.0 before striking a high $8,808.7. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day. Tron’s TRX (+1.57%), Tezos (+1.20%), Ethereum (+1.06%), Bitcoin Cash ABC (+1.23%), and Binance Coin (+1.11%) led the way early on. Monero’s XMR was down by 0.15%, however, to buck the trend. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through to $8,900 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,110.73 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from the morning high $8,808.7. Barring an extended crypto rebound, the first major resistance level would likely limit any upside. In the event of an extended crypto rally, Bitcoin could revisit $9,300 levels before any pullback. We would expect Bitcoin to come up short of the second major resistance level at $9,511.37, however. Failure to move through to $8,900 levels could see Bitcoin hit reverse. A fall back through the morning low $8,620.0 would bring the first major support level at $8,498.73 into play. Barring another extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $8,287.37.

After a list of bitcoin addresses Wright had provided as being his holdings in an ongoing court case were briefly and “inadvertently” made public by plaintiffs on May 21, 145 of the addresses were used to sign a public message both calling Wright a “fraud” and making it plain that he does not in fact own or control them. The court case was brought by Ira Kleiman, the brother of Wright’s former business partner, David Kleiman, and seeks half of 1.1 million bitcoin (worth around $9.6 billion) the two allegedly mined in the early days of the cryptocurrency, as well as intellectual property. The case hinges on whether Wright can prove he has the keys to the trove of cryptocurrency.

EPAM, which provides digital products across a range of industries including finance, joined OpenVASP as an association member on Thursday, pledging to use its programming expertise to help crypto businesses comply with theFATF’s “Travel Rule.” In June 2019, the FATF – an international money laundering watchdog – updated Recommendation 16 of the Travel Rule, which relates to the way in which data of the sender a financial transaction and its beneficiary is policed during wire transfers. Related:G20 Watchdog Warns Nations to Mitigate Risks Posed by Libra-Like Stablecoins The rule change, which caused an outcry in the crypto industry, meant digital asset transactions at exchanges and similar entities – “Virtual Asset Service Providers” (VASPs) to use the FATF’s parlance – were included as well. In effect, transaction data above a certain threshold should be stored by VASPs for potentially sharing with other VASPs, as well as regulators and policing authorities, bringing a large compliance burden and raising potential privacy issues. While the FATF rules are guidance for the globe’s regulators, nations that do not fall into line risk being blacklisted.

Related:Telegram’s Fight Against SEC Will Help Push Cryptocurrency Legislation, Says Trade Group The OpenVASP initiative, launched in November, seeks to provide a clear picture of FATF compliance based on an open-source protocol allowing for secure communication of sender and beneficiary information for crypto-asset transactions between VASPs. That’s where EPAM’s induction into OpenVASP may help. The company aims to develop a second implementation of the protocol in Java to further help Virtual Asset Service Providers such as brokers, exchanges and banks, comply with the rule. EPAM’s implementation will follow the C# implementation already being developed OpenVASP founding members such as Bitcoin Suisse, Lykke, Seba Bank, Sygnum Bank, MME Legal and Avaloq.

This is an entirely arbitrary parameter and may vary between 0 and infinity without affecting the network\'s ability to function.\n\nIt is *supposed* to be correlated to the network\'s security, but only as long as the assumptions of the model hold: the higher the costs, the more expensive certain types of attacks PoW was designed to defend upon become, because it is supposed that a single (or a small cartel) of participants in the PoW scheme would not be rationally interested in spending the needed power and computational capacity -ie it should create a high "barrier of entry" that attacks are unprofitable. So yes, the cost of gaining a controlling share are *meant* to remain high, the higher the better from their point of view. Cheap energy means only more energy needs to be wasted to keep the barrier high. It is a system designed with decreasing energy efficiency in mind.\n\nThis fails to account for a ton of different scenarios. The most basic one, is that since "mining" is expensive, a reward was needed to keep people interested in it, thus created economies of scale that make it inevitable for the total hash power to slowly accumulate in the hands of a small group (up to the point where a full monopoly on mining is formed), invalidating the model. Other scenarios involve "economically irrational" but powerful players -imagine the shitshow if this stuff is ever used as an official currency by some nation- and of players interested in economic effects that go beyond the blockchain. I think there are some published articles around the game-theoretical aspects of it (more or less all concluding cryptos security models don\'t work).\n\nAs it is, a majority of hash power (~62%, but different sources gives different numbers) currently resides in the hands of 4 big mining pools (owned by Chinese companies) and at least 50% of the total -not necessarily all of the pools\' hashpower and not only hashpower to them- is localized in a region of China, due to the availability of cheap hydro power in loco. \n\nNow, the *value* of the current bitcoin economy -which is a big negative number if you account for externalities, the reason why the whole concept is to be condemned without appeal- is much more difficult to visualize but the calculation should include some positive numbers since it has undoubtedly created some value for some demographics ie, all the people and companies that were being marginalized and denied access ...

Related: First Mover: EOS Has Still to Prove Itself After Spiraling Down This Past Year With the near-term picture cloudy, some analysts are focusing on a longer-term trend that could be surprisingly bullish for bitcoin: the emergence of digital currencies issued by central banks. It’s not an obvious investment thesis because bitcoin was invented to be used in an electronic peer-to-peer payment system that would be free of government control and operate outside of the traditional banking system. And most central bank digital currencies, or CBDCs, would, by their very nature, be issued and controlled by governments, and in many cases distributed through banks. But Jack Purdy and Ryan Watkins of the research firm Messari wrote last week in a report that the “coming digitization of money,” including the launch of CBDCs, could provide a “secular tailwind” for bitcoin. Related: Blockchain Bites: Facebook’s Calibra Facelift and Tencent’s ‘New Infrastructure’ Investments CBDCs have gained momentum over the past year as countries consider whether to roll out digital versions of their currencies to keep up with Facebook’s proposed Libra and China’s forthcoming digital currency electronic payment, which is already in testing . The journal Central Banking, which is supported by the Bank of International Settlements and the European Central Bank among others, found in a survey earlier this month that some 46 countries are considering CBDCs using a constrained form of distributed ledger technology. Story continues Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell told Congress in February the U.S. central bank is in the early stages of researching digital currencies , and that having a “single government currency at the heart of the financial system is something that has served us well.” Even so, JPMorgan said last week in a report that “there is no country with more to lose from the disruptive potential of digital currency than the United States,” as reported by Bloomberg News. “This revolves primarily around U.S. dollar hegemony.” The largest U.S. bank’s warning merely reinforces the urgency and significance of the efforts, and that’s what the Messari analysts were homing in on. “Catalyzed by bitcoin and the recognition of the benefits of blockchain technology, many countries and companies around the world have begun researching, testing and launching their own digital currencies,” the analysts wrote. “When these projects launch, they will have the combined effect of exposing billions of people to cryptocurrency-related technologies,” according to the report. “This will increase people’s comfort with and understanding of cryptocurrencies, get more people creating and using cryptocurrency wallets, and provide on-ramps into decentralized cryptocurrencies like bitcoin.” So CBDCs might be used to facilitate purchases of bitcoin? That’s the idea. Tweet of the day Bitcoin watch BTC : Price: $8,878 ( BPI ) | 24-Hr High: $9,011 | 24-Hr Low: $8,672 Trend : While bitcoin has recovered from two-week lows reached on Monday, the cryptocurrency is yet to beat key resistance above $9,300. At press time, bitcoin is changing hands near $9,000, having put in a low of $8,630, according to CoinDesk’s Bitcoin Price Index. Prices need to cross Sunday’s high of $9,310. That would invalidate the lower highs setup on the 4-hour chart and confirm an end of the pullback from $10,000 and the revival of the bullish trend. However, as long as prices are held under $9,310, the bearish view put forward by Sunday’s downside break of the ascending trendline connecting March 13 and April 21 lows would remain valid. The uptick from $8,630 to $9,000 seen in the last 24 hours lacks substance, as volumes have remained low throughout the price reco **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [6469.80, 6242.19, 5922.04, 6429.84, 6438.64, 6606.78, 6793.62, 6733.39, 6867.53, 6791.13, 7271.78, 7176.41, 7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32, 7117.21, 7429.72, 7550.90, 7569.94, 7679.87, 7795.60, 7807.06, 8801.04, 8658.55, 8864.77, 8988.60, 8897.47, 8912.65, 9003.07, 9268.76, 9951.52, 9842.67, 9593.90, 8756.43, 8601.80, 8804.48, 9269.99, 9733.72, 9328.20, 9377.01, 9670.74, 9726.58, 9729.04, 9522.98, 9081.76, 9182.58, 9209.29, 8790.37, 8906.93] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

These halving events are scheduled to take place roughly every four years as a way to guard against inflation. The total number of bitcoins that will ever be available is 21 million, but the rewards bitcoin miners receive for their efforts will repeatedly halve over the years as the world’s supply approaches that cap. Monday’s halving is the third such event in bitcoin’s history. Cryptocurrency Market Reaction Previous halvings have resulted in mixed subsequent trading action in bitcoin. Bitcoin prices were up 7% in the month following the first halving in 2012, but down 10% in the month following the second halving in 2016. Bitcoin has had a big year so far in 2020. The price of bitcoin is up 23.1% so far this year to near $9,000. While it’s unclear what kind of impact the halving will have on bitcoin prices, it will certainly make life more difficult for bitcoin miners given that it will cut their earnings power in half. Bitcoin miners use specialized high-power computing rigs to solve complex math problems that are used to validate bitcoin transactions. The first miner to solve those problems gets paid in bitcoins. The payment dropped Monday from 12.5 BTC to 6.25 BTC. Bitcoin Wallet Growth On The Rise DataTrek Research co-founder Nicholas Colas recently observed that the 2.3% bitcoin wallet growth in April was the highest growth in more than six months. Colas said there are two potential explanations for the rise in wallet growth and the spike in Google search volume related to bitcoin in mid-March. “Either ... people are getting excited about bitcoin’s ‘halving,’ when its algorithm starts reducing new issuance by half ... or ... as with our recent observation about bored, lock-downed gamblers and sport betters drifting off to day trade stocks, some percentage have also found their way into crypto currencies,” he said. Story continues Despite bitcoin bulls’ claims that bitcoin is a flight-to-safety investment, bitcoin prices plummeted 30% from Feb. 23 to March 23, the period in which the S&P 500 dropped 32.9%. The Grayscale Bitcoin Trust was down 10.13% at $10.29 at the time of publication Monday. Bitcoin was trading down slightly at $8,680.42. Benzinga’s Take Bitcoin will remain an extremely volatile, extremely high-risk investment even after the halving. Bitcoin has been a huge long-term winner for investors up to this point, but skeptics like Warren Buffett have repeatedly pointed out that cryptocurrencies like bitcoin don’t produce anything and have no intrinsic value.

U.S. Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.)put out a tweetlate Tuesday stating the U.S. would impose sanctions on China if the nation presses forward with implementing the controversial Hong Kong bill.\n“If China’s CNY continues to weaken against USD, then we could have a 2015 and 2016 repeat, where BTC strength coincided with yuan weakness,”tweetedChris Burniske, partner at venture capital firm Placeholder.\nThe above chart shows bitcoin and USD/CNY moving in tandem in 2015 and 2016.\nIn August 2015, the People’s Bank of China (China’s central bank) surprised markets by devaluing CNY by 3.5%. The Chinese currency ended 2015 with an over 5.5% loss against the dollar, while bitcoin gained 34%.\nRelated:Goldman Sachs: Cryptocurrencies ‘Are Not an Asset Class’\nAnother wave of yuan devaluation rocked financial markets in early 2016 and the currency ended that year with a 7% loss. Again, bitcoin rallied by nearly 125%.\nSo there appears to have been a correlation between the two assets in 2015 and 2016. However, correlation does not necessarily imply causation, meaning there may or may not be a cause and effect relationship between the two.\nRead more:Chinese Government Advisers Propose Regional Stablecoin for 4 Asian Countries\nSome analysts have long argued that CNY depreciation leads to increased flow of money into bitcoin from China.\nFor instance, CNY fell below 7 per dollar for the first time in 10 years on Aug. 5, 2019, amid the U.S.-China trade war. On that day, bitcoin rallied by 7% and the uptick began an hour before the yuan dropped below the key level. As a result, some observers, including prominent analyst Alex Kruger,wondered whether bitcoinhad front-run the slide.\n“Last year we witnessed flows from CNY to BTC during the trade tariff saga,” Matthew Dibb, co-founder of Stack, a provider of cryptocurrency trackers and index funds, told CoinDesk Wednesday.\nSkeptics, however, would counter that claim by saying theuptick seen onAug. 5 was short-lived and the cryptocurrency suffered sharp losses in the following four months despite the yuan’s continued decline to new multi-year lows near 7.20 per dollar.\nEssentially, the positive correlation between USD/CNY and bitcoin did not hold ground in the second half of the last year. Furthermore, both bitcoin and the yuan suffered losses in 2018.\nIt could be argued the yuan slide seen in 2015 and 2016 merely coincided with the uptick in bitcoin, which was fueled by the bullish frenzy surrounding the cryptocurrency’s second mining-reward halving, which took place in July 2016.\nNevertheless, it may be worth keeping a close eye on the ongoing CNY slide as the narrative that yuan depreciation leads to increased outflows from China is still quite strong. Further, in the crypto markets, bullish narratives have a tendency to become self-fulfilling prophecies, as evidenced by bitcoin’s pre-halving rally.\nIn addition, bitcoin may be more sensitive to developments in the yuan market this time round, with the cryptocurrency now a macro asset class this year following an increase in institutional participation.\n“It’s no longer possible to analyze the crypto market without analyzing the rest of the macro markets,” Messari analysts said in their Tuesday’s newsletter. “The 2020 recession officially marks the beginning of bitcoin as a macro asset class. For retail investors and institutional investors, crypto isn’t the only asset class in their portfolio. Therefore, it’s crucial to look at crypto from a portfolio allocation perspective.”\nIndeed, legendary fund managers like Paul Tudor Jones II have recentlythrown their weight behind bitcoin, seeing it as a hedge against inflation.\n“Bitcoin reminds me of gold when I first got into the business in 1976,” Jones said. Gold, a precious metal with limited supply, tends to gain value during bouts of fiat currency devaluation.\nSome analysts expect **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [6242.19, 5922.04, 6429.84, 6438.64, 6606.78, 6793.62, 6733.39, 6867.53, 6791.13, 7271.78, 7176.41, 7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32, 7117.21, 7429.72, 7550.90, 7569.94, 7679.87, 7795.60, 7807.06, 8801.04, 8658.55, 8864.77, 8988.60, 8897.47, 8912.65, 9003.07, 9268.76, 9951.52, 9842.67, 9593.90, 8756.43, 8601.80, 8804.48, 9269.99, 9733.72, 9328.20, 9377.01, 9670.74, 9726.58, 9729.04, 9522.98, 9081.76, 9182.58, 9209.29, 8790.37, 8906.93, 8835.05] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

A new partnership with StakeWith.US, a Singapore-based blockchain infrastructure firm that provides staking services, is expected to provide “greater flexibility” for stakeholders and community members by increasing their control over decision-making, Kyber said. Holders of Kyber Network Crystal (KNC), an Ethereum-based (ERC-20) token, will be able to delegate their tokens and voting power to StakeWith.US’s staking pool, ATLAS , when the network’s Katalyst upgrade is completed by the end of June. Related: Stablecoins Push Ethereum’s Transaction Count to Highest Since July 2019 “This seems like a logical tie-up and would allow KNC token holders who are either too busy or don’t feel comfortable enough to vote on KyberDAO initiatives to delegate their votes to an informed third party and still receive voting rewards,” said Gerrit van Wingerden, CTO and co-founder of crypto asset management platform Caspian. Kyber Network is a decentralized exchange that allows instant trading and conversion of cryptocurrencies and tokens with high liquidity. Under the planned protocol upgrade, KNC holders will be able to vote on various protocol decisions and in return will receive rewards from network fees in the form of ether (ETH). See also: New Cross-Chain Network Plans to Bring Bitcoin’s Liquidity to the DeFi Space Related: Kyber Network Activity Surges as DEX Plans Switch to Staking Model in Q2 “Kyber will be the only protocol that has a deflationary staking token with network fees paid out in ETH , an asset with monetary premium,” said Michael Ng, co-founder of StakeWith.Us. With the change, KNC holders will receive their ETH rewards based on the number of tokens staked. Token burn and rewards are determined by actual network usage and DeFi growth, Kyber said. “It’s interesting to see staking providers, such as StakeWithUs, working closer with DAOs. Collaboration will lead a healthy debate around governance and proxy smart contracts,” said David Freuden, DAO enthusiast and founder of Monsterplay, a blockchain consultancy firm working in the areas of smart cities, privacy and decentralized autonomous organisations. “Staking providers can also access a broader and potentially larger network of staking participants which will increase the size of deployable pooled funds,” Freuden added.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Crypto currency-Bitcoin-India Indian investors are back in the cryptocurrency game and how. There has been a sharp increase in trading volumes on cryptocurrency exchanges in India since March 5, when India’s supreme court quashed a Reserve Bank of India’s (RBI) circular that barred banks and other financial entities from providing services to virtual currency dealings. Air travel in India is risky during the pandemic, but it’s still the safest Trading volume on Mumbai-based WazirX, one of India’s leading crypto exchanges, rose 400% and 270% month-on-month in March and April, respectively. Now, the exchange is facilitating around 60 million trades per day as compared to 20 million before March. WazirX, which was acquired by global exchange Binance in November last year, is also seeing an uptick in new sign-ups and active users, said founder and CEO Nischal Shetty. For Bengaluru-based global exchange aggregator CoinSwitch, April was the best month since inception in 2017. “Our Indian user base went up by 158% in April,” said Ashish Singhal, CEO of CoinSwitch. “Trading volumes in Indian rupees have shot up to 12-15 million each day from around 5-7 million prior to the supreme court order.” The company, which currently gets around 10% of its users from India, expects this number to rise in the coming months. The China-Africa relationship is being reset for a post-Covid world Rising like the phoenix The past two years were a nightmare for crypto exchanges in India. After the RBI’s decision in April 2018, the virtual currency ecosystem in the country nearly choked, leading to several exchanges, including prominent ones like Koinex and Zebpay , shutting shop. A few others shifted outside the country to survive the onslaught. But those who weathered the storm are now back in full swing. The high demand over the past couple of months has proved that Indians have an appetite for cryptocurrencies, and exchanges are planning to tap the market more efficiently. Story continues For instance, CoinSwitch is creating a tailor-made mobile app called “CoinSwitch Kuber,” which will be exclusive for Indian users. “People can buy and sell over 100 cryptocurrencies easily using Indian rupees. Earlier, users could trade only by using base currencies like Bitcoin,” said Singhal. Reflecting its commitment to the country, Malta-based global exchange Binance, in tie-up with WazirX, announced on March 17 a $50 million fund to promote the adoption of blockchain technologies in India. Increased activity in the Indian crypto market has also drawn the attention of global venture capitalists (VCs) who are trying to understand how they can participate in the boom, Shetty of WazirX said. “They have realised that a lot of startups are mushrooming and they want to be the early movers,” he said. “In the US, there are huge investments taking place (in crypto startups) since 2010, which will also happen in India.” All this attention is great, but experts warn that there are still obstacles for cryptocurrencies in India. Hurdles Remain Despite the supreme court’s order, some Indian banks continue to be reluctant to support virtual currencies. “Some banks are co-operating with us, while some are still hesitant,” Singhal of Coinswitch said. The reason for this resistance could be due to a lack of clear norms from the RBI as well as the anonymous and speculative nature of cryptocurrencies. “Banks are concerned about the relative anonymity of cryptocurrencies and how they could be a safe harbour for illicit activities,” Anirudh Rastogi, founder of Ikigai Law, a technology-focused law firm. “By providing services to crypto exchanges and traders, banks think they are opening themselves to a risk of regulatory scrutiny.” The records of virtual currencies are kept on an open-ledger but the anonymity of owners can create problems. This means cryptocurrencies could be misused to transfer illegal money or evade taxes. The RBI must intervene to reassure banks and clarify that they can support crypto businesses and trade, he added. Another hurdle for crypto exchanges to operate smoothly in India is the central government’s hesitancy, including the draft “Banning of Cryptocurrency & Regulation of Official Digital Currency Bill” (2019) , which was floated in July 22, 2019 and suggests a ban on all virtual currencies in India. Until the RBI and the government have a change of heart, the path for the cryptocurrency ecosystem in India will remain difficult.

With the update coming, I had no idea what to expect. I know IOHK and Charles have learned from the FUDers not to promise any dates, because that makes people sad apparently. For me, there was never a doubt. After literally 100's if not 1000's of hours of research over the last 4 years, Cardano has been my #1 the entire time. Over the last 4 years, endless amounts of FUD have been spread from ETH, EOS some XTZ folks,etc., and initially it got me worked up, because I didn't understand how they couldnt see the beauty in the technology and intentions of this project. After a while, I realized I was thankful, because it allowed me to learn more about Cardano (and stock up more too :)) \n\n\nNote: I am heavily invested in ETH as well,and have loved the project for longer than Cardano (but not more)\n\nI am not the most computer science savvy person, but when I heard about ETH 2.0, I knew it was huge for ADA. If Shelley were to be launched, it would be an accumulation of some of the most beautiful research, science and engineering to date, for so many reasons. With Shelley now scheduled, I truly believe Cardano has taken a step towards, if not up with or even ahead of Ethereum. \\*THAT SAID\\* As Charles recognizes all the time, this is a space that will allow for many successful projects, and I really do like ethereum a lot and believe it will be successful. \n\nWhen Charles came on the screen today in the update, I knew. In my opinion, this is some of the largest news in the crpyto space, almost ever, aside from the creation of BItcoin, Ethereum, and some of the large scams. \n\nWhat do you guys think?

Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day. Story continues Tron’s TRX bucked the trend at the time of writing, with a 0.09% gain.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through to $9,470 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,579.27 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break back through to $9,500 levels. Barring a broad-based crypto rebound, resistance at $9,500 would likely leave Bitcoin short of the first major resistance level. In the event of another extended crypto rally, the second major resistance level at $9,732.43 would likely come into play. Failure to move through to $9,470 levels could see Bitcoin fall deeper into the red. A fall back through the morning low $9,366.0 would bring the first major support level at $9,312.47 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer well clear of the second major support level at $9,198.83.

Initially, after the peak in February 2020, the price alignment between Bitcoin and the DJI was almost in sync.\xa0 A broader price disconnect appears to be more evident in late April where Bitcoin rallied and theDow Jonesstayed rather flat.\xa0 Because of this shift in price alignment – we believe Bitcoin is not aligned with the Dow Jones well enough to derive any cross-market correlation.\nAdditionally, we attempted to compare Bitcoin to major consumer sectors (communications, staples, and utilities) to see if we could find any measurable correlation to these sectors in relation to Bitcoin price activity.\xa0 Again, the early price alignment of all of these seemed somewhat in-sync in the early downside price collapse in February 2020.\xa0 Yet that alignment quickly deteriorated in early March 2020 as Bitcoin prices collapsed and bottomed while the consumer sectors continued to trend a bit lower until after March 20, 2020.\xa0 The one thing we did notice is that the consumer sectors appear to be much less volatile than Bitcoin in both downside and upside price activity.\nLastly, we compared Bitcoin to the NASDAQ 100 and the Russell 2000 attempting to find any price correlation between these major market sectors.\xa0 Although the price correlation is not perfect, our researcher believes Bitcoin is moderately closely correlated to the Russell 200 more than any other symbol/sector we have attempted to analyze.\xa0 Many of the bigger, more prominent, upward, and downward price cycles/trends seems to align with the Russell 2000 price action (often within 1 or 2 days of the Bitcoin trends – if not immediately).\nFor example, the bottom/base near April 21 aligned almost perfectly between the two symbols, the rally starting near April 25 began 1 day apart on both symbols, the peak in price before a moderate selloff on March 26 happened on almost the same day for both symbols, the moderate upside peak before the big collapse on March 4 occurred only one day apart.\xa0 Even though there is a broad price volatility **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [6438.64, 6606.78, 6793.62, 6733.39, 6867.53, 6791.13, 7271.78, 7176.41, 7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32, 7117.21, 7429.72, 7550.90, 7569.94, 7679.87, 7795.60, 7807.06, 8801.04, 8658.55, 8864.77, 8988.60, 8897.47, 8912.65, 9003.07, 9268.76, 9951.52, 9842.67, 9593.90, 8756.43, 8601.80, 8804.48, 9269.99, 9733.72, 9328.20, 9377.01, 9670.74, 9726.58, 9729.04, 9522.98, 9081.76, 9182.58, 9209.29, 8790.37, 8906.93, 8835.05, 9181.02, 9525.75, 9439.12] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

Announced Tuesday, MLB Champions introduced a slew of new features while cutting the game’s in-app minting process for non-fungible tokens (NFTs). The update introduces a range of gameplay options but also adds more steps for creating unique digital items that can be traded outside of the game itself. Namely, the new version of the game moves the “minting” system off the mobile app to the MLB Champions website, according to the startup. Randy Saaf, CEO of Lucid Sight, the company behind the game, said the team will be launching an in-app marketplace with its own token in the near future. It will not accept ether (ETH) because of censorship concerns on app marketplaces. Related: Bitcoin’s Lightning Becomes Latest Protocol to Court Publishers With Micropayments Saaf said MLB Champions is one of the few blockchain-based games on Google Play due to a near shadowban of decentralized applications (dapps). “Crypto gaming is struggling right now,” Saaf said in a phone interview. “This is pretty new technology.” Instead, the app will move almost entirely to a custom-built “digital scarcity engine” to create artificial ownership limits in the game. The team built a MongoDB database that fit Lucid Sight’s focus as a gaming business, Saaf said. Lucid Sight also has limited-ownership items for purchase in other games such as its space title, Crypto Space Commander .

If it looks like it isn’t blockchain, they have done a good job,” Lucid Sight investor Jonathan Sweig told CoinDesk in a private message. Digitally scarce sports That’s not to say digital scarcity as a concept hasn’t held up well for the startup. Rather, incorporating Ethereum as the game’s base layer proved too complex for onboarding new users, Saaf said. Fellow NFT startup Dapper Labs recently expressed similar sentiments with Ethereum and opted to move to a custom blockchain instead. For example, the old version of MLB Champions required users to download the app, go through an exchange to purchase ether (ETH) and move ETH into the game via MetaMask. The average user just wants to open his phone and play ball, Saaf said. Lucid Sight is not waiting around for scaling solutions to Ethereum’s slow transaction speeds either, he said. Moreover, other crypto platforms offer faster transactions but still face questions regarding censorship from tech giants like Google or Apple. Story continues Adoption “We all want massive adoption here. I think the way we do that is to add crypto in the game, but not for the sake of crypto,” Saaf said. The team decided a middle path – mixing traditional databases and blockchain together – was the best approach given the current gaming market. “Your average consumer needs a free-to-play version and it needs to be mobile-first,” Saaf said.

Lucid Sight announced a $6 million Series B in April 2019 from the likes of Salem Partners, Galaxy EOS VC Fund, Digital Currency Group, Breakaway Growth, Frontier Venture Capital and Animoca Brands. It originally raised $3.5 million in 2016 to focus on virtual reality gaming.

Partially reversing a 1.68% fall from Friday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,706.4. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning intraday low $9,323.3 before finding support. Steering clear of the first major support level at $9,312.47, Bitcoin struck a mid-morning high $9,618.8 before hitting reverse. Bitcoin broke through the first major resistance level at $9,579.27 before falling back to sub-$9,500 levels and into the red. Finding late support from the broader market, Bitcoin bounced back to a late intraday high $9,750.0. Bitcoin broke back through the first major resistance level before easing back. The second major resistance level at $9,732.43 pinned Bitcoin back late in the day. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from the 62% FIB of $10,034 to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a bullish day for the majors on Saturday. Cardano’s ADA and Ethereum surged by 18.80% and by 10.56% to lead the way on the day. Bitcoin Cash ABC (+6.82%), Bitcoin Cash SV (+6.58%), EOS (+5.93%), Litecoin (+7.30%), Stellar’s Lumen (+7.81%), Tron’s TRX (+9.26%) also made solid gains. Binance Coin (+4.35%), Monero’s XMR (+3.64%), Ripple’s XRP (+4.83%), and Tezos (+1.82%) trailed the front runners. In the current week, the crypto total market cap fell to an early Monday low $238.04bn before rising to a late Saturday high $272.67bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $268.41bn. Bitcoin’s dominance saw a Thursday 69.54% spike before sliding to a Saturday current week low 65.81%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 66.11%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.54% to $9,654.2. A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin fall from an early morning high $9,707.2 to a low $9,654.2 Story continues Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day. Ethereum was up by 0.16% at the time of writing to buck the trend early on. It was a bearish start for the rest, however, with Stellar’s Lumen falling by 1.43% to lead the way down. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to avoid sub-$9,600 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,863.17 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Saturday’s high $9,750.0. Barring another broad-based crypto rebound, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside. In the event of another extended crypto rally, the second major resistance level at $10,019.93 and 62% FIB of $10,034 could come into play. Failure to avoid sub-$9,600 levels could see Bitcoin fall deeper into the red. A fall back through the morning low $9,654.2 to sub-$9,600 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,436.47 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer well clear of sub-$9,400 levels on the day.

It was a bearish start for the rest, however, with Stellar’s Lumen falling by 1.43% to lead the way down. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to avoid sub-$9,600 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,863.17 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Saturday’s high $9,750.0. Barring another broad-based crypto rebound, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside. In the event of another extended crypto rally, the second major resistance level at $10,019.93 and 62% FIB of $10,034 could come into play. Failure to avoid sub-$9,600 levels could see Bitcoin fall deeper into the red. A fall back through the morning low $9,654.2 to sub-$9,600 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,436.47 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer well clear of sub-$9,400 levels on the day.

The kiwi hit its highest level since March 12 early in the session before drifting lower as traders cautiously awaited an important press conference by U.S. President Donald Trump on the U.S. response to a Chinese national security law for Hong Kong and its potential impact on an already fragile global economy . The Kiwi tried to mount a late session rally in conjunction with a surge in demand for U.S. equities after President Trump signaled no changes to the trade deal with China despite rising tensions, however, the buying stalled and the currency inched lower for the session. Although Trump did not indicate the U.S. would pull out of the Phase One trade agreement reached with China earlier this year, easing trader concerns for the time being. On Friday, the NZD/USD settled at .6207, down 0.0005 or -0.08%. Daily NZD/USD Daily Swing Chart Technical Analysis The main trend is up according to the daily swing chart. However, Friday’s slightly lower close may be an early sign that momentum may be getting ready to shift to the downside. A trade through .6240 will signal a resumption of the uptrend. The main trend will change to down on a move through the nearest main bottom at .5921. The main range is .6448 to .5469. Its retracement zone at .6074 to .5858 is controlling the longer-term direction of the NZD/USD. Holding above this zone will support the upside bias. Its Fibonacci level at .6074 is the nearest support level. Short-Term Forecast The NZD/USD is in no position to change the main trend to down, but there is room for a near-term correction into .6074. Taking out Friday’s low at .6170 will be the first sign of weakness. This move will also make .6240 a new minor top. The trigger point for a potential acceleration to the downside is the May 27 low at .6149. Taking out .6240 will signal a resumption of the uptrend. If this move is able to generate enough upside momentum then we could see an eventual test of the March 9 main top at .6448.

While Bitcoin and Ethereum both enjoyed staggering surges to the upside, Bitcoin Cash struggled to make progress after suffering a brutal rejection 200MA. Even though it momentarily rallied to $276 Bitcoin Cash soon lost momentum before falling back down to the $255 level of support. The failure to form a crucial lower high signals a distinct lack of optimism from investors and traders, with the potential of a correction now becoming increasingly likely. Downside price targets continue to emerge at both $238 and $200, although a re-test of the low at $142 may also come into fruition if Bitcoin Cash continues to struggle on lower time frames. When compared against its BTC trading pair BCH is 40.68% down since February 14 which demonstrates how far it has fallen in such a small space of time. In order for Bitcoin Cash to invalidate its bearish forecast it needs to begin closing daily candles above the daily 200MA, which is currently in confluence with the $269 level of resistance. Following on from that it would need to trade back above $282 as this was the point the sell-off began in early March. For more news, guides and cryptocurrency analysis, click here .

Finding late support, Bitcoin broke back through the first major support level to wrap up the day at $9,450 levels. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000.

Binance Coin (+0.71%), Ethereum (+12.28%), Monero’s XMR (+4.52%), Stellar’s Lumen (+3.37%), Tezos (+1.75%), and Tron’s TRX (4.11%) also joined Bitcoin in the green.

A new era of competition was born as regional pride grew and grew. \n\n###[](#0)\n|OCHRE ALLIANCE: Kanto, Hoenn, Unova, Alola|\n|-|\n\n#####[](#0)\n|TEAL ALLIANCE: Johto, Sinnoh, Kalos, Galar|\n|-|\n\nNow is the time for you to pick a side!

That includes Bitcoiners who are fine-tuning the organization of hackathons in the virtual realm.\nSeveral timesaround the globe, German lightning research startup Fulmo has put on the event Lightning Hack Day, where developers gather to hack and share new exciting ideas to further the network or the lightning-related projects they’ve been working on.\nWith coronavirus making it unwise (and even legally restricted) to travel and gather in large groups in meat space, they’ve moved online, rebranding the event to the Hack Sprint. “The world is still in lockdown, but that doesn’t stop Bitcoiners to gather around the virtual fireplace to keep building and sharing knowledge!”tweetedFulmo a couple of weeks prior to the two-day event, which took place May 9 and 10.\nThe event is dedicated specifically to the lightning network, a technology considered critical toBitcoin‘s future. It aims to solve huge problems with payments in the leaderless currency, such as significantly scaling how many transactions it can handle and speeding up payments to be instant, as shoppers expect.\nRead more:What Is Bitcoin’s Lightning Network?\nThe hackathon is an “unconference,” since participants do much of the (self-)organization. They can get what they want out of it. Before the Hack Sprint, developers posted “challenges” for fellow hackers to solve, such as a small boost to lightning privacy and building an extension using lightning payments as a method to curb spam on a wiki, where participants can crowdsource information and collaboratively edit content. Some enthusiasts even posted BTC bounties to encourage participation.\n“Anyone is welcome to put up challenges and use the weekend to get some progress. No one is forced to deliver a prototype, but to work and share what their outcomes were,” said Christian Rotzoll, DIY node project Raspiblitz creator and organizer of the Hack Sprint.\nRelated:Bitcoiners Sprint to Improve Lightning Network in 2-Day Virtual Hackathon\nAt the culmination of the 48-hour sprint, developers presented what they built or improved upon, a total of 16 projects, improving the sprawling lightning ecosystem in various ways – either adding new features or using the time to clean up messy code.\nSome projects focused on lightning applications like tipping. That’s apopular early applicationof the payment system, partly since lightning enables smaller online payments than ever before, with lower processing fees.\nMany tipping apps are focused on media, includingTippin.mefor Twitter, but developer Michael Bumann finished a proof of concept of such an app over the weekend geared towards donating to developers.\nProgramming might usually be a high-paying gig, but often developers create software for free to further a technology or cause that they’re passionate about. The Bitcoin community, for example, is filled with these people.\nBumann created a tool to make it easier to automatically tip programmers (specifically the programming language Ruby) who developed open source software a developer used in their own project.\nRead more:BitMEX Operator Ups Grant for Bitcoin Development to $100K\nTeams made a number of improvements toRaspiblitz, a DIY guide for crafting your own lightning node with an interface showing some of the node statistics.\nRunning your own lightning node is the most trust-minimizing way of using Bitcoin, because you don’t have to trust anyone else to tell you what the state of the blockchain is. Without one, a malicious actor could potentially feed a user false information.\nPseudonymous developer Openoms added a component to Raspiblitz to make it easier to summon the GUI of JoinMarket, one of a few key ways of making “CoinJoin” transactions, which gives users more privacy.\n“JoinMarket is the longest standing and most feature-rich CoinJoin software with somewhat less easy to use interface which I am determined to improve. This is a small step taken to make the existing graphical interface easily and safely available for RaspiBlitz users on their desktop,” Openoms told CoinDesk.\nOther developers focused on making lightning work better under the hood.\nAgain along the lines of privacy, one developer group created TOR2IP-Tunnelservice, which adds a new feature for lightning users taking advantage of Tor, a privacy tool that hides a user’s IP address, which identifies a user’s computer and location.\nThe tool uses lightning two ways in one. First, it allows a user to tie a public address to the Tor address where their lightning node is running and connected to, w **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [6733.39, 6867.53, 6791.13, 7271.78, 7176.41, 7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32, 7117.21, 7429.72, 7550.90, 7569.94, 7679.87, 7795.60, 7807.06, 8801.04, 8658.55, 8864.77, 8988.60, 8897.47, 8912.65, 9003.07, 9268.76, 9951.52, 9842.67, 9593.90, 8756.43, 8601.80, 8804.48, 9269.99, 9733.72, 9328.20, 9377.01, 9670.74, 9726.58, 9729.04, 9522.98, 9081.76, 9182.58, 9209.29, 8790.37, 8906.93, 8835.05, 9181.02, 9525.75, 9439.12, 9700.41, 9461.06, 10167.27] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

Following on from a 4.12% breakout on Wednesday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,589.3. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to a mid-morning intraday low $9,118.2 before making a move. Steering clear of the first major support level at $8,946.67, Bitcoin rallied to a final hour intraday high $9,630.3. Bitcoin broke through the first major resistance level at $9,349.47 and second major resistance level at $9,488.63 before easing back. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from the 62% FIB of $10,034 to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was also a bullish day for the majors on Thursday. Cardano’s ADA surged by 17.71% to lead the way. Binance Coin (+3.64%), Bitcoin Cash ABC (+3.34%), Ethereum (+5.77%), Monero’s XMR (+4.28%), Stellar’s Lumen (+4.92%), Tezos (+4.37%), and Tron’s TRX (+3.12%) also found strong support. Bitcoin Cash SV (+1.17%), EOS (+1.67%), Litecoin (+2.05%), and Ripple’s XRP (+1.37%) trailed the front runners. In the current week, the crypto total market cap fell to an early Monday low $238.04bn before rising to an early Friday high $263.53bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $261.58bn. Bitcoin’s dominance fell to a Monday low 66.38% before a Thursday 69.54% spike. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 66.99%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.57% to $9,535.0. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning high $9,618.8 before falling to a low $9,483.5. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day. Cardano’s ADA joined Bitcoin in the red, with a 0.46% loss at the time of writing. Story continues It was a bullish start to the day for the rest of the pack, however. EOS led the way early on, rallying by 1.49%. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to avoid sub-$9,450 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,773.67 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Thursday’s high $9,630.3. Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely limit any upside. In the event of another extended crypto rally, the second major resistance level at $9,958.03 and the 62% FIB of $10,034 would likely come into play. Failure to avoid sub-$9,450 levels could see Bitcoin fall deeper into the red. A fall back through the morning low to sub-$9,450 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,261.57 into play. Barring another extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer well clear of the second major support level at $8,933.83.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin slid by 6.84% on Tuesday. Partially reversing an 8.2% rally from Monday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,527.0. It was a range-bound start to the day. Bitcoin slipped from an early morning intraday high $10,252.0 to an early morning low $10,066.0. Steering clear of the first major support level at $9,632.53, Bitcoin recovered to $10,200 levels before hitting reverse. An afternoon reversal saw Bitcoin slide to an early afternoon intraday low $9,150.0 before finding support. Bitcoin fell through the first major support level at $9,632.53 before finding support. In spite of late support, however, Bitcoin failed to break back through the first major support level. Resistance at $9,600 pinned Bitcoin back. The near-term bullish trend remained intact, in spite of Tuesday’s pullback. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a mixed day for the majors on Tuesday. Stellar’s Lumen rallied by 3.39% to buck the trend on the day. It was a bearish day for the rest of the pack, however. Binance Coin (-3.73%), EOS (-5.40%), Ethereum (-4.31%), Litecoin (-4.68%), Ripple’s XRP (-3.75%), and Tron’s TRX (-4.57%) led the way down. Bitcoin Cash ABC (-1.22%), Bitcoin Cash SV (-2.52%), Cardano’s ADA (-2.40%), Monero’s XMR (-1.78%), and Tezos (-2.31%) saw relatively modest losses. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Monday high $285.71bn before sliding to a Tuesday low $255.98bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $264.36bn. At the start of the week, Bitcoin’s rose to a Monday high 67.13% before falling to a Tuesday low 65.64%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 66.02%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.32% to $9,496.1. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning high $9,538.1 before falling to a low $9,480.6. Story continues Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, the rest of the majors also struggled early on. Stellar’s Lumen and Tezos led the way down, with losses of 1.64% and 1.39% at the time of writing. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through to $9,650 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $10,136.0 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break back through to $10,000 levels. Barring another broad-based crypto rally, resistance at $10,000 would likely leave Bitcoin short of the first major resistance level. In the event of another extended crypto rally, Bitcoin could eye $10,200 levels before any pullback. Failure to move through to $9,650 levels could see Bitcoin fall deeper into the red. A fall back through the morning low $9,480.6 would bring the first major support level at $9,034.0 into play. Barring another extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$9,000 levels on the day.

But to date, the most popular off-chain protocols that use bitcoin (the currency, with asmall “b”) run on the largest rival toBitcoin(the network, uppercase).\nIn fact, Ethereum projects includingWBTCandimBTChold 70% more bitcoins than Lightning or Liquid.\nThis is “ironic” to Camila Russo, author of “The Infinite Machine“,a forthcoming book about Ethereum, but she’s not surprised.\nEthereum was designed to be “more flexible,” Russo explained, which allows these tokenized protocols to “thrive.” Bitcoin, on the other hand, was built “to do one thing well, which is to transfer value trustlessly and in a censorless way.”\n“Tokenized bitcoins,” as these projects are called, allow users to denominate in bitcoin when transacting in the Ethereum network’s emerging ecosystem of decentralized financial products. Instead of using ether (Ethereum’s native currency) to make loans or earn interest, for example, transactions are, in effect, made with bitcoin.\nThe supply of tokenized bitcoin has grown 330% year to date.\nRelated:Ethereum Has Become Bitcoin’s Top Off-Chain Destination\nIt’s important to note that the total amount of BTC held off the Bitcoin blockchain by both Ethereum- and Bitcoin-based protocols is tiny – only 8,285 BTC (worth $79 million as of Wednesday) – relative to the 18.4 million BTC issued since 2009.\nRecent growth in tokenized bitcoin on Ethereum is “only the beginning,” said Jack Purdy, a decentralized finance analyst at Messari.\n“Ethereum has an incredibly diverse set of financial applications built on it,” Purdy explained. “We’re going to start seeing a multitude of other use cases as the market for bitcoin on Ethereum continues to grow.”\nDespite the disparate growth levels between protocols using bitcoins off the Bitcoin blockchain, some tokenized bitcoin projects see themselves as complementary to – instead of in competition with – Bitcoin’s Lightning and Liquid networks.\n“Wrapped Bitcoin represents a digital asset – bitcoin – on the Ethereum chain, and is really complementary to Lightning,” said Kiarash Mosayeri, product manager at crypto custodian BitGo, which helped spearhead WBTC atlaunch in January 2019.\nGrowth on Ethereum- or- Bitcoin-based off-chain protocols will “drive adoption and increase the network effect for Bitcoin, attracting more applications and developers in the space,” Mosayeri said.\nBuilt on Bitcoin, Lightning and Liquid also aim to extend the leading cryptocurrency’s utility, similar to the goals of tokenized bitcoin projects. But these protocols have a narrower focus of improving the speed and privacy of small and large off-chain bitcoin transactions, respectively.\n“Both approaches offer different capabilities and security tradeoffs,” said Matt Luongo, CEO of Thesis, which launched tBTC in May. “I’m a huge fan of the Lightning Network, and I believe it will become more and more relevant in commerce and in new applications like gaming.”\nGrowing interest in using bitcoin on other blockchains shows that “there is interest in building more advanced features that might not be directly realizable on the Bitcoin blockchain itself,” said Christian Decker, engineer and researcher at Blockstream, the technology company that launched the Liquid Network and the c-lightning implementation of Lightning.\nBoth types of off-chain protocols are important, explains Olivia Lovenmark, previously at BitGo and Thesis.\n“Tokenized protocols like tBTC and wBTC can be more personally exciting because they expand a bitcoin holder’s financial options, whereas tokenless protocols, like Lightning, improve network infrastructure, which is broadly a community benefit,” said Lovenmark.\nUltimately, whether on Ethereum or Bitcoin, recent growth suggests users want to transact in bitcoin.\nAccording to Decker, interest in using bitcoin on other blockchains is “a strong signal that the interest in Bitcoin itself is increasing, and that other tokens are losing ground when it comes to bitcoins.”\n“I’m not really surprised that users on Ethereum are looking to get exposure to bitcoin, but don’t want to switch over to the Bitcoin network,” Decker added. “That’d also explain why these wrapped bitcoins exist on Ethereum and not on Bitcoin, since the base functionality of Bitcoin already covers what the users are looking for.”\nRegardless of the motivations behind tokenized bitcoin projects, these Ethereum-based protocols could benefit bitcoin through broader adoption, Lovenmark said.\n“Growth of off-chain Bitcoin protocols means greater optionality for holders,” she said. “This increases use cases for bitcoin and, thus, adoption.”\n• Miners Are Selling More of Their Bitcoin.

Durov said in a message posted to his official Telegram channel on Tuesday that the firm's entrenched fight with U.S. regulators was to blame. The Securities and Exchange Commission sued Telegram last fall in an effort to halt the distribution of TON tokens to U.S. investors. That sale raised as much as $1.7 billion, as previously reported. As Durov noted: "Unfortunately, a US court stopped TON from happening. How? Imagine that several people put their money together to build a gold mine – and to later split the gold that comes out of it. Then a judge comes and says: 'These people invested in the gold mine because they were looking for profits. And they didn't want that gold for themselves, they wanted to sell it to other people. Because of this, they are not allowed to get the gold.'" "If this doesn't make sense to you, you are not alone – but this is exactly what happened with TON (the mine) and Grams (the gold). A judge used this reasoning to rule that people should not be allowed to buy or sell Grams like they can buy or sell Bitcoins," he continued. Durov issued a harsh indictment of the U.S. government and the degree of its global influence in the financial arena. He wrote: "Sadly, the US judge is right about one thing: we, the people outside the US, can vote for our presidents and elect our parliaments, but we are still dependent on the United States when it comes to finance and technology (luckily not coffee). The US can use its control over the dollar and the global financial system to shut down any bank or bank account in the world. It can use its control over Apple and Google to remove apps from the App Store and Google Play. So yes, it is true that other countries do not have full sovereignty over what to allow on their territory. Unfortunately, we – the 96% of the world's population living elsewhere – are dependent on decision makers elected by the 4% living in the US." Story continues Durov also issued a veiled word of caution about projects that utilize the TON marketing or seek to tie themselves to Telegram itself. "You may see – or may have already seen – sites using my name or the Telegram brand or the "TON" abbreviation to promote their projects. Don't trust them with your money or data. No present or past member of our team is involved with any of these projects. While networks based on the technology we built for TON may appear, we won't have any affiliation with them and are unlikely to ever support them in any way. So be careful, and don't let anyone mislead you," he wrote. He closed by writing: "I want to conclude this post by wishing luck to all those striving for decentralization, balance and equality in the world. You are fighting the right battle. This battle may well be the most important battle of our generation. We hope that you succeed where we have failed." © 2020 The Block Crypto, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['By Gertrude Chavez-Dreyfuss NEW YORK (Reuters) - Investors expecting a sudden surge in bitcoin\'s price, after it underwent a technical adjustment three weeks ago that reduced the rate at which new coins are generated, may have to wait a few months, or perhaps a few years. Bitcoin traded in narrow ranges after it went through a third so-called halving on May 11, which cut the rewards given to those who "mine" bitcoin to 6.25 new coins from 12.5. There were some expectations that bitcoin would soar, similar to what happened after the two previous adjustments as the "halving" effectively decreased its supply. The virtual currency has gained 11% since the adjustment, but it had more down days than up days and analysts said technical momentum overall was negative. In contrast, bitcoin had soared more than 40% from January this year until the "halving." On Thursday, bitcoin was at $9,783. It breached $10,000 twice after the "halving" but retreated as it found tough resistance at that level. "Bitcoin is on a see-saw, between bulls and bears," said Nicholas Pelecanos, head of trading at NEM Ventures. "On one end, we have network data and technicals; the other, strong fundamentals and a correlation to U.S. stock indices." He added that bitcoin\'s network data is flashing more bearish than bullish signals, as he expects further short-term selling. Beyond the short term though, many investors expect a price surge. The first halving, in November 2012, catalyzed a rally for bitcoin from about $10 to $1,160 in 12 months. The second halving, in July 2016, saw bitcoin jump more than 300%, from $650 to $2,800 within the same time span. "It may take six to 12 months for investors to reap the rewards of post-halving price movements," said Lennard Neo, head of research at Stack Funds. "In reality, there is a significant time lag between the halving event and the establishment of renewed market equilibrium based on general supply and demand," he added. Story continues Since miners\' profits have contracted as block rewards decreased by 50%, the "halving" has affected the supply side of bitcoin and increased the time needed for miners to find their break-even point. Once this is found, Stack\'s Neo said, bitcoin is likely to realize its "halving-induced" price appreciation. Investors are also banking on higher institutional demand to further propel the price of bitcoin. Fund flows into the biggest crypto asset managers have been robust in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic. "When we look at institutional inflows for our products and that of another asset manager, what you\'re seeing are purchases that have now outstripped, for the first time, new bitcoins being created by 150%," said Danny Masters, chairman of CoinShares, with $1 billion in crypto assets. Michael Sonnenshein, managing director at Grayscale with $4 billion in crypto assets under management, said since April the firm\'s bitcoin investment fund has ballooned to $3.5 billion as of June 2, from $2 billion at the end of the first quarter. "There\'s a lot of momentum and interest in investing in digital currencies particularly in the face of uncertainty, the pandemic, political tensions, and the amount of stimulus being pumped into the global economy," said Sonnenshein. James Wo, chairman of Digital Finance Group, a $500 million crypto and blockchain fund, likens bitcoin to digital gold, and as such, the digital currency has barely scratched the surface. "Bitcoin has great potential to grow," said Wo. "Gold has an eight trillion-dollar valuation, while bitcoin has less than $200 billion dollars in valuation. It just needs more time for mainstream adoption. People need enough time to fully understand and believe in it."

It has once again failed to break above the daily 200 moving average with it now looking like a move towards the $0.20 level of support is on the cards over the typically low volume weekend. The stagnation in price comes in spite of Bitcoin’s stunning rise ahead of next week’s halving event, which has seen it surge to as high as $9,550 over the course of today. But with much of the attention focused on Bitcoin, altcoins are falling by the wayside as overall Bitcoin dominance continues to rise. In order for XRP to prove critics and analysts wrong it desperately needs to rally above $0.226, which is only a 5% move from its current position. A move of that magnitude would open up a great deal of potential for XRP, with upside price targets emerging at $0.2445 and $0.2968. However, in order for a rally to be sustained it would need an injection of trade volume, something that it has struggled to maintain over the past two months. What’s far more likely is a further corrective move to the downside to the $0.1692 level of support, which was a point of resistance during XRP’s recovery in Apil.

Agencies from all corners of the U.S government regularly contract with crypto intel firms, inking deals for their tracing software worth millions, and sometimes stretching years.\nRead more:Inside Chainalysis’ Multimillion-Dollar Relationship With the US Government\nRelated:Coinbase Offers US Feds New Crypto Surveillance Tools\nApparently, Coinbase, whobought blockchain intelligence firm Neutrinoin February 2019, is about to undercut the competition.\n“This is the least expensive tool on the market and has the most features for the money,” read aDEA May noticeso heavily redacted that those features’ specifics are unclear. But they are unique, as theIRS notice, published in April, notes Coinbase Analytics has “enhanced law enforcement sensitive capabilities that are not currently found in other tools on the market.”\nCoinbase confirmed that it developed the Analytics product from Neutrino. It further stated that Analytics is available for financial institutions and law enforcement agencies alike, and is used in internal investigations.\n“It’s an important tool to meet our regulatory requirements and protect our customers’ funds,” Coinbase said.\nThe DEA’s interest appears to stem in part from Coinbase Analytics’ pinpoint accuracy. It has “some of the most conservative heuristics used in commercial blockchain tracing tools,” a “critical” distinction in avoiding false positives, the DEA notice read.\nNeither the DEA or IRS disclosed the bottom-line value of their prospective deals, which federal contract websites indicate have not been finalized yet.

The 49-year-old, who is now the CEO of Blockstream, believes that Bitcoin will come into its own as a result of money being pumped into economies around the world to prevent the economic effects of the Coronavirus. Back told Bloomberg that, contrary to popular belief, it will not be institutional investment that drives Bitcoin to the upside, with an added emphasis being added on retail investors who may be lured into investing as global economies stutter . “It might not require additional institutional adoption because the current environment is causing more individuals to think about hedging,” Back said. “And retaining value when there’s a lot of money printing in the world.” Another name is being spread around the crypto community as the possible real identity of Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto https://t.co/NMgsoOxp17 — Bloomberg Crypto (@crypto) June 2, 2020 He went on to say that with more people working from home, investors may turn to Bitcoin as a result of the uncertain housing market and high levels of unemployment. Back continued: “It is causing people to think about the value of money and looking for ways to preserve money. It’s a difficult environment to get any yield.” On the topic of who is behind the Satoshi Nakamoto moniker, Back admitted that it wasn’t him while stating that it’s better than the true identity is kept as a mystery. “It’s generally viewed at this point as better that the founder of Bitcoin is not known, because a lot of people have a hierarchical mindset,” Back said. “If you read about a technology, you try to figure out who is the CEO of a company, and people want to ask questions. Because Bitcoin is more like a digital gold, you wouldn’t want gold to have a founder. For Bitcoin to keep a commodity-like perception, I think it’s a very good thing that Satoshi stays out of the public.” For more news, guides and cryptocurrency analysis, click here .... - Reddit Posts (Sample): [['u/Chazzyphant', 'Billions seems to be missing a very exciting and interesting story direction in favor of retread plot lines that favor Axe and Chuck wheeling and dealing and conquering all---over and over.

And I\'m still watching, so take this with a grain of salt :) \n\nI did notice though, that the show seems like it\'s feinting or hinting at what could be a VERY interesting story line to me:\n\n"new guard" tactics vs. "old guard"---"soft touch" wining and dining with a psychological angle rather than Wags\' caviar and dames or Axe\'s blowhard bluster, NLP programs and "algos" rather than "guts and glory" and ego, Bitcoin instead of oil, and just a general shift in the way trading, making money, and how fortunes are made. \n\nThis reminds me a lot of the shift from the hard drinking, womanizing and ego-centric abstract Expressionist of the 40\'s and 50\'s to the weird, anti-social, (and often gay/queer) and distant/mysterious experimental artists of the Pop and Post-Modern movement. I would 100% love to see that play out, especially with the new character who is an artist---he is an interesting blend of the macho/ego artist who\'s a "man\'s man" but who is living in a completely different art world now. They could do so much with this character but instead he appears to have fallen under Axe\'s snake charm of money (which is REALLY a bummer) within half an episode!

Come on. Not a good look---unless the show was making the point that these two lions are about to be Lions In Winter---which I don\'t feel they\'re doing, or at least not doing effectively! \n\nThere is a lot of real drama and emotion to be mined out of the realization that a new generation is surpassing you and doing it with techniques and tricks you know nothing about and are beyond your capabilities---there are hints of this in the show, but sadly the show thinks we want rousing scenes of Axe buying everyone and/or "crushing his enemies" and then mike-dropping and walking off. \n\nMore Scooter, less Hooters, show.', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/Billions/comments/gxi7tb/billions_seems_to_be_missing_a_very_exciting_and/', 'gxi7tb', [['u/KitWat', 30, '2020-06-06 12:38', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/Billions/comments/gxi7tb/billions_seems_to_be_missing_a_very_exciting_and/ft3ljx6/', "Jesus.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin rose by 0.50% on Saturday. Partially reversing a 1.74% fall from Friday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,668.4. It was another mixed start to the day. Bitcoin fell to an early morning intraday low $9,552.6 before making a move. Steering clear of the first major support level at $9,538.6, Bitcoin rallied to a midday intraday high $9,742.3 before hitting reverse. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $9,784.0, Bitcoin slid back to sub-$9,600 levels before briefly revisiting $9,700 levels. Resistance at $9,700 ultimately pinned Bitcoin back late in the day to limit the upside on the day. The near-term bullish trend remained intact, in spite of the mixed week. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was another mixed day for the majors on Saturday. Stellar’s Lumen rose by 1.64% to lead the way on the day. Cardano’s ADA (+0.40%), Ethereum (+0.81%), Monero’s XMR (+0.79%), Ripple’s XRP (+0.57%), and Tron’s TRX (+0.94%) also avoided the red. It was a bearish day for the rest of the majors. Bitcoin Cash ABC fell by 1.32% to lead the way down. Binance Coin (-0.74%), Bitcoin Cash SV (-0.28%), EOS (-0.53%), and Tezos (-0.24%) also saw red, while Litecoin ended the day flat. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Monday high $285.71bn before sliding to a Tuesday low $255.98bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $270.22bn. In the week, Bitcoin’s rose to a Monday high 67.13% before falling to a Thursday low 65.58%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 65.81%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.12% to $9,657.0. A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin fall from an early morning high $9,668.5 to a low $9,619.4. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. The rest of the majors saw another mixed start to the day. Story continues Ethereum (-0.09%), Monero’s XRM (-0.19%), and Tezos (-0.13%) joined Bitcoin in the red. The rest of the majors were in the green at the time of writing, with Bitcoin Cash SV up by 0.44% to lead the way. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through to $9,760 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,756.27 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Saturday’s high $9,742.3. Barring another broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high would likely limit any upside. In the event of an extended crypto rally, Bitcoin could eye the second major resistance level at $9,844.13 before any pullback. Failure to move through to $9,760 levels could see Bitcoin struggle on the day, however. A fall back through the morning low to sub-$9,600 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,566.57 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $9,464.73.

Steering clear of the first major support level at $9,538.6, Bitcoin rallied to a midday intraday high $9,742.3 before hitting reverse. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $9,784.0, Bitcoin slid back to sub-$9,600 levels before briefly revisiting $9,700 levels. Resistance at $9,700 ultimately pinned Bitcoin back late in the day to limit the upside on the day. The near-term bullish trend remained intact, in spite of the mixed week. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was another mixed day for the majors on Saturday. Stellar’s Lumen rose by 1.64% to lead the way on the day. Cardano’s ADA (+0.40%), Ethereum (+0.81%), Monero’s XMR (+0.79%), Ripple’s XRP (+0.57%), and Tron’s TRX (+0.94%) also avoided the red. It was a bearish day for the rest of the majors. Bitcoin Cash ABC fell by 1.32% to lead the way down. Binance Coin (-0.74%), Bitcoin Cash SV (-0.28%), EOS (-0.53%), and Tezos (-0.24%) also saw red, while Litecoin ended the day flat. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Monday high $285.71bn before sliding to a Tuesday low $255.98bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $270.22bn. In the week, Bitcoin’s rose to a Monday high 67.13% before falling to a Thursday low 65.58%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 65.81%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.12% to $9,657.0. A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin fall from an early morning high $9,668.5 to a low $9,619.4. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. The rest of the majors saw another mixed start to the day. Story continues Ethereum (-0.09%), Monero’s XRM (-0.19%), and Tezos (-0.13%) joined Bitcoin in the red. The rest of the majors were in the green at the time of writing, with Bitcoin Cash SV up by 0.44% to lead the way. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through to $9,760 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,756.27 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Saturday’s high $9,742.3. Barring another broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high would likely limit any upside. In the event of an extended crypto rally, Bitcoin could eye the second major resistance level at $9,844.13 before any pullback. Failure to move through to $9,760 levels could see Bitcoin struggle on the day, however. A fall back through the morning low to sub-$9,600 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,566.57 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $9,464.73.

Gold Price Futures (GC) Technical Analysis – Next Major Value Zone is $1621.90 to $1582.40', "Many cryptocurrency projects have adopted an approach called token burning to restrict the supply of their tokens. This may conjure up images of smoke and matches, but no tokens are actually burnt in the process. They are, however, rendered unusable in the future. So, what’s the point of token burning and who does it benefit? Token burning explained When a company decides to burn tokens, it has two options. It can either purchase existing tokens from the market (known as buy-back) or it can choose to take existing currency out of circulation. This could be tokens stored elsewhere such as in a Treasury or team wallet, or it could be unallocated tokens. For example, when OKEx launched OKChain in February of this year, the exchange decided to burn the 700 million unissued OKB tokens to make it a completely deflationary currency and the first fully circulating platform token. To ‘burn’ these tokens, their signatures are sent to a black hole (or “eater”) address. This is an irretrievable public wallet that can be viewed by anyone and the coins’ status is broadcast to the blockchain. #Binance Completes 11th Quarterly $BNB Burn https://t.co/k8WrLWgLhY pic.twitter.com/w0rC02j6ii — Binance (@binance) April 18, 2020 Some companies may burn tokens as a one-off event while others, such as Binance , and OKEx hold quarterly burns . How and why companies burn tokens ultimately depends on what they’re aiming to achieve. One-off burns often occur after a fundraise is completed and tokens are leftover. They could also happen to correct a mistake. Story continues Tether, for example, accidentally created $5 billion in USDT! They had to swiftly burn these tokens so as not to destabilise the 1:1 peg with the US dollar. Regardless of the mechanism, the result is the same: the tokens are removed from circulation and can never be used again. What are the advantages of burning tokens? If asset burning is a common practice, what, apart from correcting an error or removing tokens from circulation, are the benefits of this? To start with, token burning is a deflationary mechanism usually meant to affect the token price. Just as with the Bitcoin Halving, it comes down to the laws of supply and demand. Burning tokens ,like the halving, is restricting the supply. If the demand stays the same or increases, the price will naturally go up. If the demand dwindles, the burning won’t have had much effect. Exchanges like Binance, Huobi , KuCoin, and OKEx periodically burn tokens to incentivise their holder to keep them as they become more valuable. However, while it often affects the price, most trading platforms are actively building up use cases for their tokens and additional benefits for their holders, such as the ability to pay for goods and s **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [7334.10, 7302.09, 6865.49, 6859.08, 6971.09, 6845.04, 6842.43, 6642.11, 7116.80, 7096.18, 7257.67, 7189.42, 6881.96, 6880.32, 7117.21, 7429.72, 7550.90, 7569.94, 7679.87, 7795.60, 7807.06, 8801.04, 8658.55, 8864.77, 8988.60, 8897.47, 8912.65, 9003.07, 9268.76, 9951.52, 9842.67, 9593.90, 8756.43, 8601.80, 8804.48, 9269.99, 9733.72, 9328.20, 9377.01, 9670.74, 9726.58, 9729.04, 9522.98, 9081.76, 9182.58, 9209.29, 8790.37, 8906.93, 8835.05, 9181.02, 9525.75, 9439.12, 9700.41, 9461.06, 10167.27, 9529.80, 9656.72, 9800.64, 9665.53, 9653.68] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

As the market approach that the 0.64 level it did see a little bit of pressure to the upside but ultimately this is a pair that looks as if it is trying to start rolling over soon. This makes sense, the Australian dollar has no business being this elevated, especially in an environment where economic growth is all but gone. TheUS dollarwill continue to be a safety currency that people will run to, and as the US Treasury market continues to attract a lot of inflows, it makes sense that the greenback will strengthen. At this point, it is highly likely that we will continue to see market participants fade short-term rallies, but keep in mind that this is a market that is also highly levered to China which is not going to be a helpful thing at this point in time. China is on the back foot when it comes to growth, because quite frankly most of its customers are not buying. While being tethered to China for the last three decades has been a particularly good thing with the Australian economy, the overreaching dependence on Chinese trade has shown itself in Australia as it enters its first recession in 30 years. It is highly likely that we have come close to seeing the top and the Aussie dollar during this cycle. The 0.65 level has offered a lot of resistance, and it is also an area where we had seen massive selling to begin with. Ultimately, this is a market that is trying to determine its longer-term direction.

Did not know who I could share this with, but then I thought other nursing students may get it, so here I am. I graduated with my ADN in December, and I just started a BSN program in May, so I am still in that student focus.\n\nI belong to a national guard cav scout group on Facebook (ex medic and current military wife). There was a post on it about the fact that leadership is not doing its best to impose COVID-19 precautions despite a media campaign saying they are. Someone replied with " If it\'s so contagious and we have to maintain 6ft of distance so as not to spread the virus; why do I need to shove a q-tip into my brain? Shouldn\'t the virus be detectable in the nose?" This caused me to roll my eyes and get a little angry.\n\nBefore nursing school, I probably would have spouted off with nonsense that I had heard from the news, social media, and work, littered with cuss words and bad grammar without any sources. I am not naturally articulate, especially in the heat of the moment. I thought about my response and realized that it was actually a legit question. I knew he was wrong, but I could not give him facts about why he was wrong. I decided to use this time to practice my research and education skills. I also love microbiology (briefly thought about going that route when first starting school) and thought it would be fun.\n\nI spent a few hours researching and typing my post. I used Microsoft Word and then copied and pasted. I was very satisfied with the end result, and even though it was not APA format, and no in-text citations as Facebook formatting sucks, I did include all my links at the bottom of the post. No one has responded to it or acknowledged my post, even though it has had many views, so it may have been a waste of my time, but I am proud that I was able to use my skills to educate myself and others. And have a good laugh.\n\nEdited to add my post from Facebook by request. Grammar is not great, don\'t judge too harshly:\n\nSomeone on another post was questioning the contagiousness of COVID-19 and nasopharyngeal testing. I found this question interesting and relevant, my husband has been questioning the Rona response since this started, so I decided to do some research because I love microbiology.\n\nTLDR; Because… science! But seriously the virus attaches to protein receptors that are on mucus-producing cells in the nasal tract, which are focused more in the back 2/3 of the nose ending with the pharynx. The most sensitive test we currently have, PCR, needs to be able to pick up enough of the virus to be able to show positive. Most people do not have enough of the virus at the end of their nasal tract until they have had the virus for a while. I do believe the death rate has been overhyped, but the virus does disproportionally affect already sick people and those less advantaged, so it’s not good. Also, there are implications of causing issues with clotting, neurological function, and other unknown long-term effects.\n\nFor those who are interested in a more in-depth explanation here, it is. I am kind of a science/microbiology nerd, so sorry!\n\nI will break my answer into two parts. Also, keep in mind that scientists still know relatively little about the COVID-19 virus. First is why this virus is so contagious. It is contagious because it is novel. We have not seen this virus before so our bodies cannot fight it off like it can for so many other pathogens we are exposed to. Also, the virus seems to shed more (move into other parts of the body, like lungs and mucus membranes like the mouth and nose) and replicate easier, though there needs to be more research on this.\n\nSecond part, why do we have to use the nasopharyngeal swabs. One reason for this is that viruses have surface proteins that allow them to enter the host cell via a certain receptor. COVID-19 is very similar to the original SARS virus; it attaches to receptors on a protein that is on the surface of our cells (angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)). ACE2 is in many parts of the body but is especially concentrated in the lungs. When COVID-19 blocks these receptors, it makes the lung cells unable to do their job. For some reason, COVID-19 seems to do a better job of attaching to ACE2 than the original SARS, this is still being studied and debated as to why. ACE2 has also been found in mucus-producing goblet cells, which are located all along the respiratory tract, which includes the back 2/3 of the nasal tract, which ends at the pharynx. It gets mixed in with the mucus and when we cough or sneeze or talk, these droplets are then expelled out of the body, which is the 6-foot rule, though sneezing can go a lot further than that. ACE2 also works in many other biologic functions, like blood pressure, so the other long term effects need to be studied.\n\nAnother reason is the availability of tests and the parts that make up the tests, like reagents. There have been shortages for different parts of the tests. Also, the nasopharyngeal tests were already developed. They have developed regular nasal swabs, like the flu tests we normally get, or the oral swabs, which show promising results, but there have not been enough peer-reviewed studies for widespread approval and these tests may not be as accurate. Another is the sensitivity of the tests. The gold standard is PCR tests, they detect the DNA, or in this case, the RNA of the virus, which can be translated to DNA, of a pathogen. These tests have a lower limit of detecting that they need to show positive results, meaning they need enough of the virus to study. That means swabbing the whole nasal tract, especially in those with no symptoms, or are still in the incubation period, which can be up to 14 days.\n\nSome resources, but I can provide others if anyone wants any more information.\n\n[https://www.gavi.org/vaccineswork/when-covid-19-most-contagious-and-why-self-isolation-so-important](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.gavi.org%2Fvaccineswork%2Fwhen-covid-19-most-contagious-and-why-self-isolation-so-important%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR2SJMY9lRLwFeHbRcGf6qJHCW8M_uWSacTTJUEwGtGshJxCGyaJolL63CA&amp;h=AT0_aPF_OYMfhezMIjsZSt6gmdbVm2MerUGuqNXJQa97n-sTawq4xo9pgCD9Z7DW_SktWb_R8LJZHFJOYm4Mh6CaDytMhyWPIYQk9V2hci-KFpcH0pTqGZ_UytGhHbQauQ&amp;__tn__=-UK-R&amp;c%5b0%5d=AT2bj7u5uiQxYXRJ4O7F_LtnpY4nTrmPvjbVmCDx_sECJrmhdzdTsIihCUJc7TZVM8DokpgC2SMmr32bWz5j-W_H1Z8Fi4g8rFVFfpJ3TpAE5IIVGxP36FOXaP3NDbXvs7MXq_1sn2PDEgedJiQmFzlc251Nbjt25NkLhYQh_iXbJbkQQhqyfg)\n\n[https://www.myvmc.com/medical-centres/lungs-breathing/anatomy-and-physiology-of-the-nasal-cavity-inner-nose-and-mucosa/#:\\~:text=The%20posterior%20two%2Dthirds%20of,which%20overlies%20a%20basement%20membrane](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.myvmc.com%2Fmedical-centres%2Flungs-breathing%2Fanatomy-and-physiology-of-the-nasal-cavity-inner-nose-and-mucosa%2F%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR1BOA2BGzL40H-cp5s44QgxfsHcg-u_fn43QlhYt9HJ1-sLaTfY21_LOt0%23%3A~%3Atext%3DThe%2520posterior%2520two%252Dthirds%2520of%2Cwhich%2520overlies%2520a%2520basement%2520membrane&amp;h=AT3M2B5Dxx-NDCJ_1fmCyKXcSp-DrwU9L3ePNVqBHi9QXLqOKyPFwRGIcSx7v2rC1NKvU3YGqDLCuCLGzGAObVMGcDuOzRnUXWagzgp3dYf4QBDXgrFTd-PaMvA7OejYEQ&amp;__tn__=-UK-R&amp;c%5b0%5d=AT2bj7u5uiQxYXRJ4O7F_LtnpY4nTrmPvjbVmCDx_sECJrmhdzdTsIihCUJc7TZVM8DokpgC2SMmr32bWz5j-W_H1Z8Fi4g8rFVFfpJ3TpAE5IIVGxP36FOXaP3NDbXvs7MXq_1sn2PDEgedJiQmFzlc251Nbjt25NkLhYQh_iXbJbkQQhqyfg).\n\n[https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2766522](https://l.facebook.com/l.php?u=https%3A%2F%2Fjamanetwork.com%2Fjournals%2Fjama%2Ffullarticle%2F2766522%3Ffbclid%3DIwAR2vlXMewMvXL2-Eh-UP-NK7XRm_G6HSteUZV5glHvI8ujXazfbvFCzTDno&amp;h=AT1kkyC74hJl_k71Y5D6LKWKT48EAhrTpkPhTVvknKvxW0uueVTAHo0x55kYgi2ww5SqnLlxIyAUu0vtbTcXaV3D-trdNyx5szxwUSJmpy1UbLvBk7o3YbchJawd5pjGDA&amp;__tn__=-UK-R&amp;c%5b0%5d=AT2bj7u5uiQxYXRJ4O7F_LtnpY4nTrmPvjbVmCDx_sECJrmhdzdTsIihCUJc7TZVM8DokpgC2SMmr32bWz5j-W_H1Z8Fi4g8rFVFfpJ3TpAE5IIVGxP36FOXaP3NDbXvs7MXq_1sn2PDEgedJiQmFz...

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin rose by 0.81% on Sunday. Following on from a 0.50% gain on Saturday, Bitcoin ended the week up by 3.13% to $9,747.1. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning high $9,710.7 before hitting reverse. Coming up short of the first major resistance level at $9,756.27, Bitcoin slid to an early afternoon intraday low $9,393.8. Bitcoin fell through the first major support level at $9,566.57 and the second major support level at $9,464.73. Finding late support, however, Bitcoin rallied to a late afternoon intraday high $9,814.0. Bitcoin broke through the first major resistance level at $9,756.27 before easing back to sub-$9,700 levels. A late rally led to a move back through to $9,700 levels. The first major resistance level capped the upside in the final hour, however. The near-term bullish trend remained intact, supported by last week’s gain. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was yet another mixed day for the majors on Sunday. Tron’s TRX rallied by 6.86% to lead the way. Cardano’s ADA (+0.35%), EOS (+0.55%), and Ethereum (+1.20%) joined Bitcoin in the green. It was a bearish end to the week for the rest of the majors, however. Bitcoin Cash ABC slid by 6.8% to lead the way down. Bitcoin Cash SV (-1.13%), Monero’s XMR (-1.54%), Stellar’s Lumen (-1.85%), and Tezos (-1.31%) also struggled. Binance Coin (-0.80%), Litecoin (-0.30%), and Ripple’s XRP (-0.05%) saw modest losses on the day. It was also a mixed week for the majors. Bitcoin Cash ABC and Bitcoin Cash SV bucked the trend, with losses of 0.02% and 1.76% respectively. It was a bullish week for the rest of the pack, however. Cardano’s ADA, Stellar’s Lumen, and Tron’s TRX led the way, with gains of 17.08, 12.65%, and 14.9% respectively. Binance Coin (1.93%), EOS (+5.17%), Ethereum (+5.78%), Litecoin (+2.30%), Monero’s XMR (-2.53%), and Tezos (+2.88%) also found strong support. Story continues Ripple’s XRP saw a more modest 0.49% gain for the week. Through the week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Monday high $289.13bn before sliding to a Tuesday low $252.62bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $272.05bn. At the start of the week, Bitcoin’s rose to a Monday high 67.13% before falling to a Thursday low 65.58%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 65.97%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.19% to $9,765.8. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning high $9,785.7 before falling to a low $9,745.0. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was another mixed start to the day. Binance Coin (+0.64%), Bitcoin Cash ABC (+0.38%), Bitcoin Cash SV (+0.09%), Litecoin (+0.21%), Monero’s XMR (+0.05%), and Stellar’s Lumen (+0.13%) joined Bitcoin in the green. It was a bearish start to the week for the rest of the majors. At the time of writing, Tron’s TRX was down by 1.00% to lead the way down. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move back through to $9,800 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,909.47 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Sunday’s high $9,814.0. Barring another broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely limit any upside. In the event of an extended crypto rally, Bitcoin could eye the second major resistance level at $10,071.83 before any pullback. Expect plenty of resistance at $9,900, however… Failure to move through to $9,800 levels could see Bitcoin struggle on the day. A fall back through the morning low $9,745.0 to sub-$9,650 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,489.27 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $9,231.43.

Cardano’s ADA (+0.35%), EOS (+0.55%), and Ethereum (+1.20%) joined Bitcoin in the green. It was a bearish end to the week for the rest of the majors, however. Bitcoin Cash ABC slid by 6.8% to lead the way down. Bitcoin Cash SV (-1.13%), Monero’s XMR (-1.54%), Stellar’s Lumen (-1.85%), and Tezos (-1.31%) also struggled. Binance Coin (-0.80%), Litecoin (-0.30%), and Ripple’s XRP (-0.05%) saw modest losses on the day. It was also a mixed week for the majors. Bitcoin Cash ABC and Bitcoin Cash SV bucked the trend, with losses of 0.02% and 1.76% respectively. It was a bullish week for the rest of the pack, however. Cardano’s ADA, Stellar’s Lumen, and Tron’s TRX led the way, with gains of 17.08, 12.65%, and 14.9% respectively. Binance Coin (1.93%), EOS (+5.17%), Ethereum (+5.78%), Litecoin (+2.30%), Monero’s XMR (-2.53%), and Tezos (+2.88%) also found strong support. Story continues Ripple’s XRP saw a more modest 0.49% gain for the week. Through the week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Monday high $289.13bn before sliding to a Tuesday low $252.62bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $272.05bn. At the start of the week, Bitcoin’s rose to a Monday high 67.13% before falling to a Thursday low 65.58%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 65.97%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.19% to $9,765.8. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning high $9,785.7 before falling to a low $9,745.0. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was another mixed start to the day. Binance Coin (+0.64%), Bitcoin Cash ABC (+0.38%), Bitcoin Cash SV (+0.09%), Litecoin (+0.21%), Monero’s XMR (+0.05%), and Stellar’s Lumen (+0.13%) joined Bitcoin in the green. It was a bearish start to the week for the rest of the majors. At the time of writing, Tron’s TRX was down by 1.00% to lead the way down. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move back through to $9,800 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,909.47 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Sunday’s high $9,814.0. Barring another broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely limit any upside. In the event of an extended crypto rally, Bitcoin could eye the second major resistance level at $10,071.83 before any pullback. Expect plenty of resistance at $9,900, however… Failure to move through to $9,800 levels could see Bitcoin struggle on the day. A fall back through the morning low $9,745.0 to sub-$9,650 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,489.27 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $9,231.43.

CoinMarketCap came under fire last month after its new web traffic-based ranking system gave Binance – which acquired the aggregator for a rumored $400 million in April – a perfect score. “Six weeks in and Binance’s acquisition of CoinMarketCap [is] already being abused to manipulate the rankings,” tweeted an irate Mati Greenspan, at the time. Well, the price site has some good news: “We have just implemented a new algorithm to replace the previous default ranking of exchanges by\xa0Web Traffic Factor,” reads an upbeat blog post from Thursday. CoinMarketCap’s new ranking system basically amalgamates all the metrics used to rate an exchange’s individual markets – its bitcoin or ether market, say – into one easy-to-read score. There are two components: The market pair is an exchange’s reported trading volume, liquidity, and web traffic factor, combined to create a single score. This is evaluated by a “Confidence” indicator where CoinMarketCap’s own algorithm passes judgment on if the score is accurate, or if it looks like it’s been fudged.

On Monday, the benchmark U.S. oil futures contract for May delivery tumbled to anunprecedented negative price, largely because storage tanks are full of a product few can use. How that surprised experienced oil traders might seem a mystery, sinceenergy companiesandTexas state officialshad been warning for weeks that storage capacity was running out.

Related:Market Wrap: Oil Rebounds As Crypto Makes Gains, Especially Ether Commentators quickly pointed out the price anomaly was limited to the May contract; the futures contract for June delivery, after all, was still trading above $20 a barrel – a better reflection of oil’s true price. “Technical factors explain some of the decline,” the New York Timeswrote. “Oil watchers don’t consider it the most accurate reflection of price action,” the Wall Street Journalwrote. Then on Tuesday, thatnarrative proved fancifulwhen the June contract tumbled more than 43 percent to a 21-year low of $11.57 a barrel. The May contract settled at $10.01. The only news was the price discovery: It turns out oil is worth a lot less now than it was at the start of the week, or in early April when it traded closer to $30 a barrel. The takeaway forbitcointraders is there might be a lot of factors in cryptocurrency markets that are known but not really reflected in the price. Related:Blockchain Bites: Ripple Sues YouTube, Monero Hits the Box Office and Draper Wants Crypto Everywhere Those could include thedeflationary impact of the coronavirus-induced global recessionand the potential inflationary forces of the Federal Reserve’s trillions of dollars of emergency money injections. Another might be theupcoming miner rewards halving, due to take place next month on the bitcoin blockchain. “The markets are just simply reflecting at this point what’s going on in the real economy, which obviously is a lot of volatility,” Commodity Futures Trading Commission Chair Heath Tarberttold CNBC on Tuesday, in an interview about the oil market. The reality unfolds slowly, and the volatility happens all of a sudden. This might help explain why bitcoin has been stuck for all of April in a range between $6,400 and $7,400, even in the midst of what looks to be the world’s biggest health emergency and economic crisis so far this century. “Bitcoin barely flinched as negative oil prices sent shockwaves through traditional markets and in relative terms has held up very well,” the Israeli trading platform eToro noted Tuesday in an email to clients. Was that the right reaction for the bitcoin market? There’s so much traders don’t know about the future course of the pandemic and of its ramifications for business, society and culture. But it’s not even clear if markets have properly priced in what traders already know. Bitcoin is often touted by traders as ahedge against inflation, and many cryptocurrency investors assume the Fed’s money injections willeventually spur faster price rises. But Deutsche Bank has predicted in recent reports that the U.S. unemployment rate will rise to a post-World War II record of 17 percent, putting downward pressure on wages. That’s deflationary. For bitcoin traders, squaring the countervailing forces adds to the frustration of trying to divine what sort of speculation the bitcoin market is already reflecting. Is May’s halving priced into the market, given that it was put on the schedule 11 years ago when the Bitcoin blockchain was launched? That debate has been raging for months. The oil price collapse this week shows how bad markets can be at reflecting what’s already known until there’s a hard reality check on supply and demand. That might mean bitcoin traders won’t know the price impact of the cryptocurrency’s potential adoption as an inflation hedge until more mainstream investors actually start buying. And it might mean the market won’t see the full impact of May’s halving until it comes – and maybe goes. BTC: Price: $6,960 (BPI) | 24-Hr High: $6,988 | 24-Hr Low: $6,783 Trend: Bitcoin is flashing green on Wednesday as price volatility falls to fresh 3.5-month lows. The top cryptocurrency is currently trading near $6,950, representing a 1.4 percent gain on the day. The cryptocurrency is lacking a clear directional bias, however, as prices have spent a better part of the last 2.5-weeks trading in the narrow range of $6,450 to $7,450. Due to the rangebound activity, the spread between bitcoin’s Bollinger bands – volatility indicators placed two standard deviations above and below the 20-day moving price average – has narrowed to $838, the lowest since January 6. The spreadwas$895 on Monday. The tightening of Bollinger bands indicates a drop in volatility and often paves the way for a big move up or down. The daily chart’s MACD histogram, an indicator used to identify trend strength and trend changes, is about to cross below zero for the first since March 20. The impending bearish crossover on the MACD suggests the price squeeze could end with a sell-off. The immediate support of the lower Bollinger band is located at $6,571. However, on-chain metrics are telling a different story. For example, the seven-day moving average of the number of bitcoins held on cryptocurrency exchanges continues to fall, indicating a strong holding sentiment ahead of the mining reward halving due in 19 days. The average fell to 2,398,564 on Tuesday to hit the lowest level since June 13, according to blockchain intelligence firm Glassnode. The metricstood at2,214,365 a week ago, having topped out at 2,404,786 on Jan. 17. Investors usually move coins from the exchanges to their personal wallets when prices are expected to rise. Meanwhile, bitcoin balances on exchanges typically rise during bear markets. It’s worth noting the MACD is based on moving averages, which are lagging indicators, and could trap sellers with a bearish crossover. Hence, accumulation signaled by the declining balance of bitcoin on exchanges takes precedence over the technical indicator. Put simply, bitcoin could rise in the short term and may breach the recent trading range on the high side. Acceptance above $7,450 would open the doors for a stronger rally to $8,000. • Bitcoin Approaches $7K as US Passes New $480B Stimulus Package • Blockchain Bites: DeFi Hacker Is Back, Oil Craters and Big Tech Won’t Sue You... - Reddit Posts (Sample): [['u/mashblaster23', 'Open Discussion on Statera - Crypto Index Fund', 45, '2020-06-08 04:42', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoMoonShots/comments/gyqdda/open_discussion_on_statera_crypto_index_fund/', 'So many of you might have heard of Statera. It caught my eyes because the idea of a crypto index fund is virtually unheard of yet in the crypto space. Add to that the deflationary aspect which is a new paradigm for deflationary tokens use-cases.\n\nI’ve been observing the Balancer AI do its work and it seems like people have high hopes of this project. The Balancer AI liquidity pool continues to grow ($180k) now even while price is dipping.\n\nAnd the conventional idea that you have to cash out at the top doesn’t apply so much to this token, because you can just leave it into the index pool and have your losses spread across 5 different tokens. Hence making dumps less painful. E.g. if you place $1000 into the index fund &gt; $200 each across 5 tokens, even if STA drops by 50% you only lose $100 as opposed to $500. So I think it really makes whales less likely to cashing out.\n\nNot to mention that when you add to the index fund you are giving the Balancer AI more power, which in turn helps to support mass dips in the token’s value during corrections.\n\nThe burning is also working as intended, especially during mass panic sell-offs. Yesterday alone we’ve seen ~400k tokens burned.\n\nAll in all I really think this is a simple yet really beautiful financial instrument. And not to mention the first-mover advantage that this index fund has. (A larger and stronger liquidity pool as compared to other copycat index funds that might appear in the future)\n\nAs the developer and team only holds less than 3% of the tokens, this project is essentially now a community-run project. Decentralisation and fair distribution is essentially what cryptocurrencies should be rather than teams holding 90% of tokens waiting to dump on you at the very top.\n\nOf course this project is really new and it’s Super volatile at this stage, as all new projects are. But if this project really takes off this would be the first of its kind crypto project. It is essentially a bet on the golden bull run that everyone expects the crypto market to have in the near term.\n\nIf BTC, ETH, SNX and LINK moons, which is very likely, the token’s value will get pulled up along with it due to the AI rebalancing the 20% weightage across the 5 tokens. And along with the inbuilt deflationary aspect, it’s really quite interesting to see how this all turns out in the near term.\n\nThis would also be a great project to sell to the mainstream when they flood in eventually. Essentially an index fund for the crypto markets. I imagine the boomers would like that. Thankfully enough the pool holds only 5 tokens and they are IMO really great tokens with lots of potential.\n\nDo check it out and let me know what you guys think.\n\nWebsite: https://stateratoken.com/\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/stateratoken/\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/StateraProject\nMedium: https://medium.com/@stateraproject/\nhttps://t.me/stateratoken\nhttps://t.me/stateraunofficialpricegroup\nhttps://t.me/stateraannouncement', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoMoonShots/comments/gyqdda/open_discussion_on_statera_crypto_index_fund/', 'gyqdda', [['u/anonibills', 17, '2020-06-08 04:56', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoMoonShots/comments/gyqdda/open_discussion_on_statera_crypto_index_fund/ftbyr9c/', 'Damn good post!

I don\'t trust the "trustless" part, because I don\'t understand the connection between the smart contract and the initial liquidity in the public balancer pool and how it can be that no one has the private keys to the address connected to the pool. \n\n* What does STA bring to table, really? As far as I can tell, ALL of the innovation was done by [the balancer project](https://balancer.finance/whitepaper/), which is done by different authors. It seems to me it\'s just a deflationary token added to a balancer pool. So, you could just create a new pool with any set of tokens and have created the same "deflationary crypto index fund" concept. The pools are the "index funds", the STA token is just a new generic ERC20 token added to a pool with no other uses. Or what am I missing? \n\n* It\'s still sketchy to have an anonymous team: I\'d rather have a face on the project, but then again, Satoshi was also anonymous... So I guess if the technical concerns were addressed at some point, that wouldn\'t matter anymore. \n\n* That said, why is STA only shilled on Reddit and biz? Would the folks at bitcointalk be too critical?\n\nBtw call this FUD if you want, but imho a project needs some amount of critical "FUD" to push itself into 100mil+ market cap.

(NASDAQ: MGI ) skyrocketed on Monday and premarket session on Tuesday, as Bloomberg reported that Western Union (NYSE: WU ) is looking to acquire the payments company. What Happened Western Union has made a takeover offer to MoneyGram, but an agreement is yet to be reached, people familiar with the matter told Bloomberg. The deal, if finalized, will bring the two veteran money transfer companies together as they struggle to keep their businesses afloat. MoneyGram has about $878 million in debt, according to Bloomberg, and the shelter-in-place orders imposed to curb the spread of the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) gave another setback to its payments infrastructure around the globe. Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.'s (NYSE: BABA ) subsidiary Ant Financial had made an acquisition offer of $1.2 billion to MoneyGram in 2017, but President Donald Trump's administration blocked the deal amid rising tensions with the Chinese government, Reuters reported at the time. Why It Matters Western Union and MoneyGram have been losing ground to financial technology companies like PayPal Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ: PYPL ), Square Inc. (NYSE: SQ ), and Stripe, which provide faster transaction processing at reduced costs. Online payment services offered by technology giants, including Alphabet Inc.'s (NASDAQ: GOOGL ) (NASDAQ: GOOG ) and Apple Inc. (NASDAQ: AAPL ) present further competition in the field. Social media company Facebook Inc. (NASDAQ: FB ) is planning to join the fray later this year with the Libra cryptocurrency, which will allow users of its and subsidiary WhatsApp and Instagram's platforms to make direct and quick payments. Price Action MoneyGram shares traded 50.58% higher at $3.41 in the pre-market session on Tuesday. The stock had closed the regular session 6.2% higher at $2.59. Western Union shares were up 6.2% in the after-hours at $22 after closing the regular session 3.5% higher at $20.71.

The firm announced Tuesday the exchange-traded product (ETP), called the Bitcoin Exchange Traded Crypto (BTCE), is the world’s first centrally cleared derivative crypto asset, and would be listed on Deutsche Borse’s Xetra market based in Frankfurt, Germany. Central clearing is a tool used in the European derivatives market to bolster stability by ensuring a financial institution takes on counterparty credit-risk. The crypto security is also backed by bitcoin , with each share giving the holder a claim to a specific amount of the cryptocurrency. According to the company, the physical bitcoin would be stored in a cold vault, meaning one not connected to the internet, operated by Palo Alto, Calif.-based custodian BitGo. “Investors get the benefit of trading and owning bitcoin through a regulated security, while having the option to redeem bitcoin if they choose,” said Bradley Duke, CEO of ETC Group, in a press statement emailed to CoinDesk. “It really is a hybrid ETP product that has the same features as an ETF [exchange-traded product]. Because it’s a single asset instrument it doesn’t qualify to be an ETF according to the European fund regime,”\xa0 explained ETC in an emailed statement. The novel security is also bound to cost slightly more than traditional ETFs, with an expense ratio of 2% compared to anywhere between 0.5 to 0.7% charged by most ETFs. According to ETC, “Bringing a product like this into regulated markets is not an easy task, and this is reflected in the premium.” Related: Deutsche Borse Exchange to List New Bitcoin Exchange-Traded Product The unveiling of this new security comes after the German financial authority, BaFin, announced in March it would officially recognize cryptocurrencies as financial instruments.

Since 2016, software engineers have worked to extend the oldest and largest cryptocurrency’s use cases through a variety of companion protocols, like the Lightning Network for payments or the Liquid Network for trading. But to date, the most popular off-chain protocols that use bitcoin (the currency, with asmall “b”) run on the largest rival toBitcoin(the network, uppercase). In fact, Ethereum projects includingWBTCandimBTChold 70% more bitcoins than Lightning or Liquid. This is “ironic” to Camila Russo, author of “The Infinite Machine“,a forthcoming book about Ethereum, but she’s not surprised. Ethereum was designed to be “more flexible,” Russo explained, which allows these tokenized protocols to “thrive.” Bitcoin, on the other hand, was built “to do one thing well, which is to transfer value trustlessly and in a censorless way.” “Tokenized bitcoins,” as these projects are called, allow users to denominate in bitcoin when transacting in the Ethereum network’s emerging ecosystem of decentralized financial products. Instead of using ether (Ethereum’s native currency) to make loans or earn interest, for example, transactions are, in effect, made with bitcoin. The supply of tokenized bitcoin has grown 330% year to date. Related:Ethereum Has Become Bitcoin’s Top Off-Chain Destination It’s important to note that the total amount of BTC held off the Bitcoin blockchain by both Ethereum- and Bitcoin-based protocols is tiny – only 8,285 BTC (worth $79 million as of Wednesday) – relative to the 18.4 million BTC issued since 2009. Recent growth in tokenized bitcoin on Ethereum is “only the beginning,” said Jack Purdy, a decentralized finance analyst at Messari. “Ethereum has an incredibly diverse set of financial applications built on it,” Purdy explained. “We’re going to start seeing a multitude of other use cases as the market for bitcoin on Ethereum continues to grow.” Despite the disparate growth levels between protocols using bitcoins off the Bitcoin blockchain, some tokenized bitcoin projects see themselves as complementary to – instead of in competition with – Bitcoin’s Lightning and Liquid networks. “Wrapped Bitcoin represents a digital asset – bitcoin – on the Ethereum chain, and is really complementary to Lightning,” said Kiarash Mosayeri, product manager at crypto custodian BitGo, which helped spearhead WBTC atlaunch in January 2019. Growth on Ethereum- or- Bitcoin-based off-chain protocols will “drive adoption and increase the network effect for Bitcoin, attracting more applications and developers in the space,” Mosayeri said. Built on Bitcoin, Lightning and Liquid also aim to extend the leading cryptocurrency’s utility, similar to the goals of tokenized bitcoin projects. But these protocols have a narrower focus of improving the speed and privacy of small and large off-chain bitcoin transactions, respectively. “Both approaches offer different capabilities and security tradeoffs,” said Matt Luongo, CEO of Thesis, which launched tBTC in May. “I’m a huge fan of the Lightning Network, and I believe it will become more and more relevant in commerce and in new applications like gaming.” Growing interest in using bitcoin on other blockchains shows that “there is interest in building more advanced features that might not be directly realizable on the Bitcoin blockchain itself,” said Christian Decker, engineer and researcher at Blockstream, the technology company that launched the Liquid Network and the c-lightning implementation of Lightning. Both types of off-chain protocols are important, explains Olivia Lovenmark, previously at BitGo and Thesis. “Tokenized protocols like tBTC and wBTC can be more personally exciting because they expand a bitcoin holder’s financial options, whereas tokenless protocols, like Lightning, improve network infrastructure, which is broadly a community benefit,” said Lovenmark. Ultimately, whether on Ethereum or Bitcoin, recent growth suggests users want to transact in bitcoin. According to Decker, interest in using bitcoin on other blockchains is “a strong signal that the interest in Bitcoin itself is increasing, and that other tokens are losing ground when it comes to bitcoins.” “I’m not really surprised that users on Ethereum are looking to get exposure to bitcoin, but don’t want to switch over to the Bitcoin network,” Decker added. “That’d also explain why these wrapped bitcoins exist on Ethereum and not on Bitcoin, since the base functionality of Bitcoin already covers what the users are looking for.” Regardless of the motivations behind tokenized bitcoin projects, these Ethereum-based protocols could benefit bitcoin through broader adoption, Lovenmark said. “Growth of off-chain Bitcoin protocols means greater optionality for holders,” she said. “This increases use cases for bitcoin and, thus, adoption.” • Miners Are Selling More of Their Bitcoin.

Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['For the first time since the U.S. went on lockdown three months ago, lawmakers will convene Thursday to discuss digital currencies and other novel technologies. The House Financial Services Committee (FSC) Task Force on Financial Technology will be evaluating how FedAccounts and other digital tools might help the federal government distribute stimulus payments to help Americans suffering the economic fallout of COVID-19 . The virtual hearing kicks off at noon Eastern (16:00 UTC). The concept of using FedAccounts to manage digital currencies has gained traction during the pandemic: bills introduced to the committee have suggested using bank accounts managed by the Federal Reserve to issue stimulus payments. The U.S. government has issued one round of payments by check, but only individuals who have filed taxes within the last two years received them. The idea behind FedAccounts is that any U.S. resident could receive these funds in a snap, rather than wait for a piece of paper mailed across several weeks by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS). “What we discovered is that large segments of the population were not included in the financial system in that they didn’t have either bank account information with the IRS or were otherwise reachable,” said J. Christopher Giancarlo, one of the witnesses for Thursday’s hearing, in a phone interview. “The government had to resort to good old trusty paper checks with the delay in time and the imprecision and the challenges that presented to populations that didn’t have bank accounts.” Giancarlo will advocate for a slightly different version of this vision, and plans to call for a token-based system rather than an account-based one. “We think that this both addresses the concern that this particular hearing is there to address but goes way further by also future-proofing the dollar for the coming digital 21st century when things of value will be increasingly tokenized, decentralized and programmable, and we think that the United States needs to recognize the direction that the world is going,” he said.

The hearing will be chaired by Rep. Stephen Lynch (D-Mass.), who heads up the task force and has previously commented on the potential role distributed ledgers and cryptocurrencies could play in the U.S. Earlier this year, Lynch proposed recording the Strategic National Stockpile on a blockchain database, to ensure the government has a more accurate picture of the medical supplies it has available. “We are looking at ways that we can adopt this new technology and address some of the challenges that we have in government,” he told CoinDesk in April about using blockchain and distributed ledger technology. “That attitude and that desire has been out there and so we have been looking for ways to utilize that technology to help government function better.” You can watch the hearing here: Related Stories How the COVID-19 Crisis Revived the Digital Dollar Debate Digital Dollars Give the State Too Much Control Over Money', 'For the first time since the U.S. went on lockdown three months ago, lawmakers will convene Thursday to discuss digital currencies and other novel technologies.\nThe House Financial Services Committee (FSC) Task Force on Financial Technologywill be evaluatinghow FedAccounts and other digital tools might help the federal government distribute stimulus payments to help Americans suffering the economic fallout ofCOVID-19.

(NASDAQ: CAN) ("Canaan" or "the Company") for violations of the federal securities laws. Investors who purchased the Company's securities pursuant and/or traceable to the Company's initial public offering ("IPO") on or about November 20, 2019, are encouraged to contact the firm before May 4, 2020.

The class, in this case, has not yet been certified, and until certification occurs, you are not represented by an attorney. If you choose to take no action, you can remain an absent class member. According to the Complaint, the Company made false and misleading statements to the market. Canaan claimed to engage in "strategic cooperation" which was really just a related-party transaction. The Company was in a weaker financial position than it reported. The Company removed many distributors immediately before the IPO, many of which were of dubious quality. Many of the Company's Chinese customers were not in the Bitcoin industry and were therefore not likely to buy its products again. Based on these facts, the Company's public statements were false and materially misleading throughout the class period. When the market learned the truth about Canaan, investors suffered damages. Join the case to recover your losses. The Schall Law Firm represents investors around the world and specializes in securities class action lawsuits and shareholder rights litigation.

Announced Thursday , Seed CX intends to focus on its Zero Hash product, the company’s custody and settlement service. Zero Hash began offering back-office settlement functions for bitcoin forwards contracts in September of last year. “As a start up [sic], you inherently gravitate towards opportunity and that often leads you to take on more, rather than less. However, it is equally important to begin to refine the business focus as certain opportunities develop into a ‘real venture growth business,'” CEO Edward Woodford wrote in a Medium post. Read more: Seed CX Subsidiary Adds Crypto Derivatives Settlement for Institutions According to Seed CX, Zero Hash now accounts for 95% of its revenue, leading to the decision to pivot the company’s focus as it aims to become the leading provider of “digital asset settlement infrastructure.” As part of the shift, the company will concentrate on two main areas for clients: regulation and technicals. “Through our API, platforms can own the complete client experience whilst not taking on any regulatory overhead. This is similar to how ‘Banking as a Service’ (BAAS) provides access to traditional rails,” the company wrote. Related: Seed CX to Close Exchange, Focus on Settlements in Company Shift On the technical side, Zero Hash will enable groups to submit two-sided transactions, depending on the product (spot, derivatives or loans) and will handle end-to-end complexities with a particular blockchain to achieve “greater capital efficiency through netting.” The firm also teased some fundraising news. “We are on course to profitability, are well capitalized and will be announcing an additional round of fundraising this month, with investors including Bain Capital. We have settled close to a billion dollars notional in the past months,” Story continues In September 2018, Seed CX announced a $15 million Series B led by Bain Capital.

Barr To Frame Draft Legislation The president said Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act enacted back in 1996 aimed at preserving online free speech, while giving the companies a chance to target harmful material, especially one targeting minors. According to the executive order, social media companies have instead used the "Good Samaritan' blocking" measure to "stifle viewpoints with which they disagree." Social media companies, includingTwitter Inc.(NYSE:TWTR),Facebook Inc.(NASDAQ:FB) and its subsidiary Instagram, andAlphabet Inc.'s(NASDAQ:GOOGL) (NASDAQ:GOOG) YouTube "wield immense, if not unprecedented, power to shape the interpretation of public events; to censor, delete, or disappear information; and to control what people see or do not see," the president said on the need for amending the law. The order calls for the United States Attorney General William Barr to create draft legislation on the matter to be considered by the Congress. Trump said at the time of signing the order that the Department of Justice could propose either to "just remove or totally change" Section 230, the Wall Street Journalreported. Barr said the department would frame the draft in a way to restore the immunity's use to its original intent. Move Follows Twitter Spat The president signed the order after hisscuffle with Twitterover the latter labeling one of his tweets on mail-in ballots as misinformation. "Twitter now selectively decides to place a warning label on certain tweets in a manner that clearly reflects political bias," Trump said in the executive order. "As has been reported, Twitter seems never to have placed such a label on another politician's tweet." The president further accused social media giants of "profiting from and promoting the aggression and disinformation spread by foreign governments like China." Twitter flagged a tweet from the Chinese government spokesperson accusing the U.S. army of bringing the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) to Wuhan as misinformation earlier in the day, Reutersreported. Price Action Twitter shares closed nearly 4.5% lower at $31.60 on Thursday. Facebook shares closed 1.6% lower at $225.46, and Alphabet Class A shares closed 0.1% lower at $1,418.24.

As my comprehension of cyrptocurrency widened I started to understand about altcoins, in particular XRP. The notoriously known altcoin with a cult following and an astounding amount of moonboys/girls. I\'m not going to lie and say I didn\'t fall for it and got into their \'hype\'. Luckily I realised how all these price optomists, e.g. "XRP TO $1000", were extremely unhealthy for the community and provided nobenefit to people so I sold out when there was an opportunity and made a small profit. Most followers, and I say most because there are a few in the XRP community who are very knowledgeable, have no clue what they are getting into and just day and night think about price. You may recognise this behaviour when you search anything related to XRP.\n\nNow Cardano has been gaining more attention lately for obvious and good reasons. But I\'m starting to witness some of these "moonboys/girls" in the community. You can call me a party pooper, pessimistic, overeacting, whatever. But for some reason when I see these types of individuals in this community I start to lose hope and confidence in the community. \n\nBUT OBVIOUSLY they mean nothing and I should really just be ignoring them and this post may have been absolutely unescessary for me to post.

Story continues Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was also a mixed start to the day. Cardano’s ADA and EOS were down by 0.84% and by 0.70% at the time of writing, to lead the way down. Bitcoin Cash SV (+0.07%), Monero’s XMR (+0.09%), and Tron’s TRX (+0.50%) bucked the trend early on. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to avoid sub-$9,420 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,592.9.87 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Friday’s high $9,544.0. Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday high would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto rebound, Bitcoin could eye the second major resistance level at $9,717.43 before any pullback. Failure to avoid a fall through the $9,420 pivot could see Bitcoin struggle for another day. A fall back through the morning low $9,434.1 to sub-$9,420 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,294.87 into play. Barring another extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$9,000 levels. The second major support level at $9,121.43 should limit any downside.

For daily insights and unique perspectives listen or subscribe to the CoinDesk Podcast Network with Apple Podcasts , Spotify , Pocketcasts , Google Podcasts , Castbox , Stitcher , RadioPublica , IHeartRadio or RSS . This episode is sponsored by Bitstamp and Ciphertrace . From how porn performers and entrepreneurs deal with Bitcoin Twitter to the ways the pandemic changed our digital sex lives, Cuen and Allie explore what actually drives demand for censorship-resistant systems. The biggest problem? Allie and other performers and sex workers basically have their digital advertising and distribution platforms controlled by third parties that aren’t responsible to the workers. For example, OnlyFans briefly froze Allie’s account earlier this year. Although she regained access, her distribution conduits remain at the mercy of tech platforms. This is where peer-to-peer transactions come in. Allie said she knows how to use a cryptocurrency wallet and would gladly do so if more customers wanted to pay her directly. The fact is, those customers are few and far between. “To those people who want to come up with a solution, my first question is: Well, are you paying for porn?” she said. “I think a lot of people want to make money off of ‘adult’, but they aren’t really willing to invest in ‘adult.’” Related: How the Porn Industry Changed During Coronavirus, With Performers Wary of Bitcoin See also: Why Lightning Payments Aren’t Clicking for Porn Companies (Just Yet) Another major issue, according to Allie, is an increase in traffic or visibility doesn’t always translate to profits. Plus, many crypto fans see her industry as something they want to profit from, by building their own tech solutions rather than contribute to experienced performers. Story continues Compared to other bitcoin or ether holders, sex workers are even more likely to rely on social networks like Twitter than exchanges like Coinbase, which de-platforms them just like PayPal. Performers require either a high degree of technical skill, to use decentralized exchange (DEX) platforms like Bisq , or a de facto social liquidity network in order to use cryptocurrency without trusting third parties.

The Crypto Fear & Greed Index rose 17 points over the week, fully reflecting the market sentiment. However, it remains in the “fear” area. The RSI forBTCUSDon the daily chart is declining from the overbought area. This technical indicator has worked accurately enough lately. Since last Thursday Bitcoin is being redeemed on the declines to the 200-day average, which has stabilized near $8,500. If this support could not resist, the pressure on the first cryptocurrency might intensify. A simple 200-day moving average is a reliable trend indicator in traditional markets, and it has proved to be a reliable indicator on the crypto market. The decline under this line at the end of February was the start of a 3-fold price collapse the following month. In November 2019, BTCUSD dropped by 18% the next month after fixing under the 200-day line. In May 2018, the decline from about the same levels was stopped only seven months later, at $3,300. There is only a week left before halving in the Bitcoin network, but it is still difficult to see signs of FOMO in the market dynamics, which could push the price far above $10,000. And the closer the halving is, the less likely FOMO to happen. It is quite probable that halving will not clear on price prospects for market participants. As before, this event may have a delayed effect. However, the environment around the cryptocurrency and the composition of investors has changed. Institutional market participants still are not crypto enthusiasts.

Story continues Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day. Bitcoin Cash SV and Monero’s XMR bucked the trend early on, with gains of 0.08% and 0.33% respectively. It was a bearish start for the rest of the pack, however. Cardano’s ADA led the way down, with a 0.70% loss at the time of writing. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to avoid sub-$9,448 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,531.8 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Saturday’s high $9,498.6. Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high $9,498.6 would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto rebound, Bitcoin could eye the second major resistance level at $9,582.7 before any pullback. Failure to avoid a fall through the $9,448 pivot level could see Bitcoin hit reverse. A fall back through the morning low $9,452.3 to sub-$9,448 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,396.8 into play. Barring another extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $9,312.7.

Cryptocurrencies became popular because their programmers touted them as anonymous. It has, however, emerged that they are not and that transactions undertaken using altcoins can be traced. Over time with the increased government scrutiny and unwanted invasion by phishers, users now realize that the cryptocurrency world is not as anonymous as most of them were led to believe. A tech startup called, CryptoMixer is changing all this and giving back cryptocurrency enthusiasts their security and privacy. The start-up provides a cryptocurrency mixing platform that obscures your cryptocurrency transactions, making it hard for anyone to trace your dealings. CryptoMixer reintroduces anonymity by allowing online shoppers that pay using cryptocurrency through addresses that remain anonymous when the user is completing transactions. The shoppers, as such, cannot be associated with the various addresses they use. How Does Coin Mixing Work? Coin mixers work by essentially collecting cryptocurrency from the people using cryptocurrency, mixing it with a giant pile of other cryptocurrencies, and then sending them smaller units of cryptocurrency to an address of their preference, with total the amount that you put in minus 1-3%. The 1-3 % is generally taken as a profit by the coin mixing company. This is how they make money. A cryptocurrency mixer (also known as a blender) allows you to spend, store and share cryptocurrencies, without your transactional data becoming public. In short, it makes your financial transactions anonymous in the true sense. It is done by mixing your transactional data with a pool of Bitcoin data. This ensures your data is secure, you have control over your privacy, and no data can be traced back to you, as the link between the sender and the receiver is broken. Story continues Crypto Mixer: The crypto mixing solution CryptoMixer is a unique cryptocurrency mixer/blender that ensures your cryptocurrency becomes untraceable, and no link exists between the stakeholders. They have designed different pools of cryptocurrencies based on their sources, with variable fee percentages. This segmentation and differentiation ensure the clean mixing of the currency. The three pools include Standard Pool, Smart Pool, and Stealth Pool. It uses a 'smart code' to avoid the same currencies from reaching a user on multiple occasions.

While this week’s sell-off in stocks was steep, the S&P 500 is still up 34% from its March 23 nadir on Friday morning. In other words, the United States’ fiscal and monetary COVID-19 stimulus efforts continue to be heavily favoring hedge fund managers, bankers and corporate CEOs. Meanwhile, as stocks have posted a record-breaking rally , 115,000 Americans have died from a pandemic that forced 38 million others to file for unemployment benefits. This is not only fundamentally unfair, it also highlights how our current capital market system grossly misallocates resources. Failed companies with dire long-term prospects – see Hertz, below – get rescued while small businesses and startups working on solutions to our economic and public health malaise miss out. You’re reading Money Reimagined , a weekly look at the technological, economic and social events and trends that are redefining our relationship with money and transforming the global financial system. You can subscribe to this and all of CoinDesk’s newsletters here . It’s time to talk about an alternative mechanism for allocating capital, one that’s not skewed by the stock market. It’s time to revisit ICOs. A different approach First, some level-setting: The 2016-2017 ICO boom was an abomination. Rife with scams, ill-defined business plans and hype, the initial coin offering bubble provided a reminder of why securities regulations exist: to make fundraisers with asymmetric information accountable and to protect investors from their abuse. But the token boom did unleash some valuable outside-the-box thinking. We should tap into it now. Related: Money Reimagined: The Fed, Hertz, a Bonkers Stock Market and why ICOs Still Matter ICOs were touted as a means for innovators to gain access to a wider funding pool and for retail investors to earn the kind of returns otherwise reserved for privileged insiders. Startups, it was said, could now bypass the venture capital gatekeepers who decide who gets funded and who gets the golden handout of a stock market initial public offering, while token investors could make those 100x payouts VCs boasted about. Story continues Disintermediating both Silicon Valley and Wall Street paved the way to an open market for ideas, ICO fans proclaimed. Yes, there’d be losses, blowups and scams. But in its roundabout way it would ultimately allocate resources to where the economy most needed it: to the innovators. Those voices were quieted by the bubble’s bursting in 2018. But the current state of U.S. financial markets demands we revisit some of their arguments – if not to resurrect the failed ICO model than to think through related regulatory reforms that address the problems with the Wall Street model. After all, the transfer of wealth from ordinary Americans outside the system to a privileged few insiders has been many magnitudes greater these past two months than anything that happened in the token issuance markets. For most of the 20th century, that system served reasonably as an engine for monetizing American ingenuity and funding economic development. But, over time, mostly because of the excessive political clout that Wall Street accumulated, it has incorporated some perverse incentives that discourage innovation. Part of the problem stems from our political culture. The mainstream narrative fed by media outlets like CNBC and by Dow industrials-obsessed political leaders like Donald Trump positions the stock market as the bellwether of the American Dream. With elites so invested in the market, both economically and politically, it’s little wonder the COVID-19 monetary and fiscal bailouts were geared toward propping it up. But it’s also structural. Think of how the quarterly “earnings season” sets standards. The rewards for all involved – Wall Street’s earnings forecasters, ROI-obsessed fund managers and corporate executives and, by extension, the bonuses of their middle management staff – hinge on “beating the number” every three months. This isn’t conducive to taking bold bets on innovative strategies that take much longer to gestate. Consider the problem of “stranded assets.” Most pension funds continue to hold big stakes in carbon-heavy companies such as oil and gas producers even though reams of analysis suggest they will be worthless within the longer-term retirement horizon of most of their members. It’s hard to get off the drug of quarterly returns. (A tangential thought experiment: Quarterly company reports are a byproduct of centralized, siloed accounting systems in which bookkeepers and auditors must reconcile records and draft periodic financial snapshots. What would happen to the quarterly rhythms of Wall Street if these reports became obsolete? What if all counterparties within a particular supply chain or economic ecosystem instead contributed to a single distributed ledger with an openly available yet privacy-protected snapshot of all transactions in real time? Such models are not possible now, but blockchains and zero-knowledge proof developers are putting them within the realm of imagination.) What works and what doesn’t? To imagine an alternative, cast your mind back to 2018 when token prices were tanking, the ICO market was drying up and “Crypto Winter” was setting in. There was actually a sensible debate back then on what token-based fundraising ideas should be retained and which ones should be dispelled. We should revive it. For example, are security token offerings, which require regulatory filings but can integrate smart contracts that traditional stocks and bonds cannot, a better way for startups to fund themselves? STOs were hot for a brief post-ICO period, and then lost momentum as it was clear the regulatory, compliance and technical framework had a long way to go. But there seems to be some resurgent interest, with issuer platforms Polymath and Securitize both making technical progress. One can imagine the recent tie-up between Galaxy and Bakkt also veering into security token services for institutional investors. Can we also agree on what legal utility tokens are, and on what the best practices for marketing them are? If, as the “Hinman doctrine” suggests, a token can cease to be security if its network evolves to a more decentralized state, what is the right framework for token issuers to stay compliant through that evolution toward utility status? How can they stay compliant at the outset but have a means to attain the desired network effects of a token-governed decentralized system? And how do we make it easier for small investors to legally and safely buy and sell tokens? Accredited investor rules are outdated, favor the same set of privileged wealthy players and unreasonably restrict the general public’s access. Meanwhile, U.S. restrictions on a host of crypto exchanges deny ordinary Americans access to a market that’s intrinsically designed for little guys to participate in. Regulation is both unavoidable and necessary. But it absolutely should not function as protective armor for a capital market system that harms our economy’s capacity to optimize capital allocation. At a time when the U.S. economy needs innovative approaches to everything, we urgently need an innovative approach to how we fund innovation. A phoenix rises… and falls For proof of our broken capital allocation system, look no further than the performance of Hertz’s stock. On May 24, the car rental company filed for bankruptcy after incurring massive losses on account of the COVID-19 travel restrictions, which had left the industry’s fleets at a standstill. In response, Hertz’s share price, which had already shed more than 85% from a two-year high in late February, plunged further, dropping into penny stock territory to $0.56. But then a strange thing happened: On Thursday last week, Hertz started a three-day tear to hit $5.54 on Monday, a 574% gain. A surge in trading activity by accounts listed on small investor trading app Robinhood seemed to be behind the gain. As the rest of the market absorbed the euphoria of a stimulus-fueled recovery, the bankrupt car rental firm was suddenly attracting an influx of speculative retail investors. For many of those newcomers, the story hasn’t ended well. On Wednesday, the New York Stock Exchange put the company on notice for delisting. Hertz is appealing that decision, but the announcement sent the shares crashing back to earth. At Thursday’s close, the price was at $2.06. A common caveat emptor response would simply say that some greedy speculators learned a lesson and we can forget about it. But the reality is more nuanced. That kind of speculative mania is inseparable from the broader sentiment of the market, which is now consumed by a “don’t fight the Fed” logic on monetary stimulus. Hertz’s mini-bubble was (indirectly) engineered by central bankers. The global town hall What’s your story, bitcoin? June has been a frustrating month so far for bitcoin bulls. That’s not only because a series of rallies offered false hope, each faltering near the psychologically important $10,000 level. It’s also because market performance has again confounded efforts to define a narrative for bitcoin as an asset. After its COVID-19 sell-off in early March, which challenged the idea of bitcoin as a safe haven, bitcoin’s relatively strong rebound was explained in terms of fiat money supply issues. Bitcoin would then be described as an antidote to the fiat world’s “quantitative easing” as the Federal Reserve’s stimulus efforts spawned the “Money Printer go Brrrrr” meme and bitcoin’s own monetary policy “quantitatively tightened” via the halving . But on Thursday, one day after the Fed said it was “committed to using its full range of tools to support the U.S. economy,” bitcoin again sold off sharply. After staging another frustrating rally to just above $9,900, it plunged to an intraday low of $9108.47.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoinproved itself a resilient asset, if not a stable or useful currency, during March’s global financial meltdown, according to analysts at one of the world’s largest investment banks.\nIn a note to investor clients circulated June 11 and obtained by CoinDesk, JPMorgan Chase & Co. analysts described how bitcoin has shifted from a fairlyuncorrelatedasset to one whose price more closely tracks traditional stocks.\n“Though correlations were modest and mostly mean-reverting around zero for much of the past couple of years, in recent months they have moved sharply higher in some cases (equities) and lower in others (U.S. dollar, gold),” wrote the team of strategists led by Joshua Younger.\nThe analysts, who normally cover bonds, noted bitcoin’s success in outperforming traditional assets in March on a volatility-adjusted basis.

These halving events are scheduled to take place roughly every four years as a way to guard against inflation. The total number of bitcoins that will ever be available is 21 million, but the rewards bitcoin miners receive for their efforts will repeatedly halve over the years as the world’s supply approaches that cap. Monday’s halving is the third such event in bitcoin’s history. Cryptocurrency Market Reaction Previous halvings have resulted in mixed subsequent trading action in bitcoin. Bitcoin prices were up 7% in the month following the first halving in 2012, but down 10% in the month following the second halving in 2016. Bitcoin has had a big year so far in 2020. The price of bitcoin is up 23.1% so far this year to near $9,000. While it’s unclear what kind of impact the halving will have on bitcoin prices, it will certainly make life more difficult for bitcoin miners given that it will cut their earnings power in half. Bitcoin miners use specialized high-power computing rigs to solve complex math problems that are used to validate bitcoin transactions. The first miner to solve those problems gets paid in bitcoins. The payment dropped Monday from 12.5 BTC to 6.25 BTC. Bitcoin Wallet Growth On The Rise DataTrek Research co-founder Nicholas Colas recently observed that the 2.3% bitcoin wallet growth in April was the highest growth in more than six months. Colas said there are two potential explanations for the rise in wallet growth and the spike in Google search volume related to bitcoin in mid-March. “Either ... people are getting excited about bitcoin’s ‘halving,’ when its algorithm starts reducing new issuance by half ... or ... as with our recent observation about bored, lock-downed gamblers and sport betters drifting off to day trade stocks, some percentage have also found their way into crypto currencies,” he said. Story continues Despite bitcoin bulls’ claims that bitcoin is a flight-to-safety investment, bitcoin prices plummeted 30% from Feb. 23 to March 23, the period in which the S&P 500 dropped 32.9%. The Grayscale Bitcoin Trust was down 10.13% at $10.29 at the time of publication Monday. Bitcoin was trading down slightly at $8,680.42. Benzinga’s Take Bitcoin will remain an extremely volatile, extremely high-risk investment even after the halving. Bitcoin has been a huge long-term winner for investors up to this point, but skeptics like Warren Buffett have repeatedly pointed out that cryptocurrencies like bitcoin don’t produce anything and have no intrinsic value.

The financing is part of a plan to shore up $17 billion in available liquidity by the third quarter as the U.S. airline tries to navigate through the most severe “financial crisis in the history of aviation”. The loan facility is expected to close by the end of July. In addition, United is looking to receive $4.5 billion through the U.S. Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (CARES Act) loan program. In a separate filing, the air carrier announced plans to sell as much as 28 million shares of its common stock. In the third quarter, United expects to reduce its average cash burn to about $30 million per day from about $40 million per day in the second quarter, as it continues to see a steady improvement in demand for domestic U.S. and certain international destinations. Furthermore, customer cancellation rates have dropped 70% since the high rates experienced in April. June ticketed passenger revenue is expected to be up close to 400% versus April. Net bookings for the rest of the second quarter and the third quarter have remained positive since the end of May, the airline said. Looking to July, United expects passenger revenue to be up between 50% and 100% versus its June 2020 passenger revenue estimate. Meanwhile, cargo revenues, which have been a significant driver of revenue and cash flow, are estimated to be up over 30% in the second quarter year-on-year. Overall, total revenues are now expected to be down 88% in the second quarter versus the same period last year. Shares in United Airlines dropped 1.7% to $39 at the close on Monday. The stock has surged 62% over the past month, fueled by a broad stock market rally amid early signs of a gradual relaxation of some of the coronavirus-related lockdown restrictions. However, year-to-date it is still down 57%. Story continues The sharp rally prompted Credit Suisse analyst Jose Caiado last week to lower the carrier’s rating to Hold from Buy with a $41 price target. “UAL briefly overshot our target price following the recent sector rally, and while it has since settled in just below our TP (~15% upside), we still take this opportunity to step to the sidelines,” Caiado wrote in a note to investors. “We believe the recent rally off the bottom is an opportunity for investors to prudently reduce their exposure to the network carriers.” For now, it looks like Wall Street analysts are divided on the airline’s stock. The Moderate Buy analyst consensus breaks down into 4 Buys versus 4 Holds and 1 Sell. The $40.71 average price target is in line with Caiado’s forecast, which puts the upside potential at a conservative 4.4% in the coming 12 months. ( See United Airlines stock analysis on TipRanks ).

The Nasdaq-listed stock has been steadily falling since the bitcoin halving on May 11, according to data from Yahoo Finance. It closed at $1.98 at the end of the trading session Monday, down 3.9%. The China-based crypto miner maker is trying to make a comeback after the halving damped demand for its machines and logistics disruptions caused by coronavirus hurt first-quarter sales. Demand for crypto mining machines from some Chinese miners may have begun to soften a few months before the halving in May, Aries Wang, co-founder of crypto exchange Bibox, said. As early as last July, “Some of the earliest Chinese miners started to raise funding from institutional investors and buy new models and phase out old machines so that they would be prepared for the halving,” said Wang, whose company has invested in crypto mining businesses. “Many had already completed the update on infrastructure such as mining sites and miners before the end of February.” Canaan tried to spur sales earlier this year by cutting prices in half, compared with 2019 average prices. However, it still suffered a $5.6 million net loss for the period, according to the latest quarterly report . First-quarter sales were also affected by the coronavirus outbreak in China, according to the report. Logistics in mainland China had stopped around the Chinese new year on Feb 10. The firm couldn’t deliver machines to customers even as demand surged due to a price rally in bitcoin, Nangeng Zhang, CEO and chairman of Canaan, said on its first-quarter earnings call. Related: Bitcoin Miner Maker Canaan’s Stock Hits Record Low 1 Month After Halving The firm enjoyed a rebound in April after China declared it had contained the spread of coronavirus and the logistics issues subsided. The stock reached $5.99 per share on May 13, two days after the halving, and has tumbled since then. Story continues The halving, a preprogrammed event that cuts mining revenue by half every four years, previously had been considered bullish for miner makers. The Chinese crypto miner manufacturer’s Nov. 20 initial public offering (IPO) priced the stock at $9 per share, but a month afterward the shares were down by half. It was briefly back above $8 on Feb. 12 after a surge of more than 80% from $4.40 from the previous day. The price started to fall again as China rolled out coronavirus quarantine measures. Canaan’s cash and cash equivalents on hand decreased by 48% in the first quarter, from $71 million as of the end of last year. The firm said the drop was partly due to $24.5 million in short-term investments including its partnership with Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corporation (SMIC), one of the largest computer chip makers from mainland China.

Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin rose by 1.05% on Tuesday. Following on from a 0.98% gain on Monday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,534.4. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning intraday low $9,388.0 before making a move. Steering clear of the first major support level at $9,056.3, Bitcoin rose to an early afternoon intraday high $9,590.0. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $9,672.3, Bitcoin fell back to sub-$9,400 levels and into the red. Finding late support, however, Bitcoin broke back through to $9,500 levels to wrap up the day in the green. The near-term bullish trend remained intact in spite of last week’s sell-off, with Bitcoin holding well above the 23.6% FIB of $8,900. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a mixed day on Tuesday. Ripple’s XRP and Tezos fell by 0.08% and by 0.55% respectively to buck the trend on the day. It was a bullish day for the rest of the majors, however. Bitcoin Cash SV (+2.11%), Ethereum (+1.90%), and Monero’s XMR (+2.07%) led the way. Binance Coin (+0.24%), Bitcoin Cash ABC (+0.67%), Cardano’s ADA (+1.12%), EOS (+0.83%), Litecoin (+0.23%), Stellar’s Lumen (+1.24%), and Tron’s TRX (+0.06%) also saw green. Through the start of the week, the crypto total market cap fell to a Monday low $246.94bn before rising to a Tuesday high $266.36bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $262.96bn. Bitcoin’s dominance rose from a current week low 66.13% to a Monday high 66.60%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 66.16%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.82% to $9,455.9. A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin fall from an early morning high $9,540.8 to a low $9,454.1. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was also a bearish start to the day. At the time of writing, Cardano’s ADA was down by 2.01% to lead the way down. Story continues For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move back through to $9,500 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,620.27 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Tuesday’s high $9,590.0. Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Tuesday’s high would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin could eye $9,700 levels and the second major resistance level at $9,706.13. Failure to move back through the $9,500 pivot level could see Bitcoin reverse Tuesday’s gain. A fall back through the morning low $9,454.1 would bring the first major support level at $9,418.27. into play. Barring another extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $9,302.13.

After he sued Lovecruft for defamation, two anonymous women detailed accounts of sexual assault by Todd in court filings. On July 15, 2019, Lovecruft filed ananti-SLAPPmotion, asking the court to dismiss Todd’s lawsuit as an attempt to curtail free speech.\nOn Tuesday, without deleting the original tweet, Lovecruft alsotweeted, “Peter Todd never raped or sexually assaulted me.” Lovecruft’sGoFundMe pagesays this tweet was required as part of the settlement. Todd citedhefty legal feesas his primary reason for settling the case, which he initially filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California in Oakland, inApril 2019.\n“I settled because I ran out of money. I’d rather have kept the case. But the really important thing was to turn vague allegations – which were surprisingly harmful – into something I could actually respond to,” Todd told CoinDesk. “Isis has been making vague claims.”\nLovecruft usedGoFundMeto crowdsource roughly $35,800 for legal fees. They also accepted cryptocurrency donations, includingbitcoin, monero and several others.\xa0Lovecruft’scrowdfunding pageoffers an ambiguous statement:\n“The basic terms of the settlement are: Todd agreed to dismiss his lawsuit against Lovecruft, and walk away without any financial recovery, in exchange for a statement by Lovecruft clarifying that they do not assert (as they have never asserted) that Todd raped or sexually assaulted them personally.”\nThis would relate to the claim of arm-grabbing, not the sexual assault allegations by the two anonymous accusers, both identified in court papers as “Jane Doe.” In a statement to CoinDesk, Todd said Lovecruft and one male witness had a conflict of interest because both were involved in the Zcash project, which Todd often criticizes.\nRelated:Ex-Bitcoin Dev Settles Defamation Suit Over Sex Assault Claims\nThe two Jane Does made filingsin the casein support of Lovecruft. One claimed she was assaulted by Todd, the other alleged he raped her. Todd denied both charges and contended that neither woman was “involved in any Bitcoin projects,” which he argued undermined the credibility of their accounts. Both Jane Does, ininterviews with CoinDesk, said they used to participate in the broader Bitcoin community but stopped after the alleged incidents.\nIn previous communications with CoinDesk, both alleged victims indicated they wanted to move on with their lives and did not seek to press charges or otherwise publicly discuss the accusations. This legal conflict was entirely between Lovecruft andTodd, the latter of whom claimed the settlement represents avictory.

Now to the news: Voting Pilot Democrats in the Ohio House of Representatives have proposed launching a blockchain voting pilot for overseas military voters registered in the state. The bill was introduced Tuesday as part of the Democrats’ elections law overhaul. If passed, it would see military members transmit their ballots to election officials via “encrypted blockchain technology” that “protects the security and integrity of the process and protects the voter’s privacy.” The receiving board of elections would then print out that ballot “for counting purposes.” HSBC to Libra The Libra Association has named HSBC Chief Legal Officer Stuart Levey as its first chief executive. Joining late this summer, Levey will oversee the association’s efforts to “combine technology innovation with a robust compliance and regulatory framework.” He has been at HSBC since 2012.

Noding Off Despite recent surges in price and mining power, Bitcoin’s total node count fell below 47,000 on Monday, a three-year low, according to developer Luke Dashjr. This trend is confirmed by Bitnodes’s data, which also a spike in nodes using onion services that may make node operators more difficult to locate.

Market Intel It’s Bitcoin, Not You Bitcoin looks to have decoupled from traditional markets as investors refocus on the network’s imminent mining reward halving. Bitcoin gained nearly 5.9% so far this month, while gold has declined by 1% and the S&P 500 is down 2.2%, on a month-to-date basis, as of Wednesday. Halving Soon Bitcoin’s halving is now predicted to come hours sooner. The cryptocurrency’s price rally above $9,000 has caused some miners to switch to more efficient mining machines, thereby accelerating the speed at which new blocks of data are confirmed and pushing up the time of the anticipated halving event.

Analysts say the data is being distorted by “Black Thursday’s” 40% drop. The spread between bitcoin’s three-month implied volatility (IV), the market’s expectation of how risky or volatile an asset will be in the future, and historical or realized volatility (RV) fell to -47% on Wednesday.

However, it feels like the world is starting to watch China more intently again after the breakout in the Xinfadi food market, with schools being closed and 1200 flights cancelled. This is also true in the US, with Texas reporting a record 11% level of hospitalisations and new cases in Florida reaching a record. Certainly, if we look at the daily case count across the suite of Republican states there is a worrying trend, where a number of recent surveys show people reluctant to wear masks, which is less the case in the blue states, which show a falling trend in the case count. Trump has an incredible balancing act Trump has made it clear that he is strongly against a second lockdown, and is hell-bent on opening the economies as he needs an economic snapback to use as a pitch for his re-election campaign. US recessions that play out two years before an election are very seldom won by the incumbent, and we can see plenty of case studies to back this case, with Hoover, Ford, Carter, and Bush senior examples. Trump knows he must balance a stronger economy with increased hospitalisation rates. If the voter base get a stronger feel that Trump has no plan to look after their welfare, and is myopically focused on getting the economy firing solely for political gain then he could lose moderates, and that may backfire….so he needs to find the right balance. As I argue in my morning (video) rant, the market had been seeing COVID-19 as old news. Where the focus put squarely on what the Fed and global central banks more broadly have been doing with policy and effecting broad money supply. Economics are improving and beating expectations, and this is playing into the idea that companies may start looking at future cash flow improvements and review its dividend policy. Story continues As we see here, US dividend futures are on the rise, and whilst I question the liquidity in these instruments, we can see expectations of dividends for 2021 (blue) and 2022 (white) are rising and offering backbone to the S&P500 (orange). Credit spreads have also been at the heart of everything – as we see here, it’s all just one big trade. The Fed acts, credit spreads tighten making it ever cheaper for corporates to issue debt, the USD falls, and equities head higher. White- High yield credit index Blue – Investment grade credit index Orange – USD index (DXY) Purple – S&P500 The question then is will COVID-19 wrestle back some market concern and promote greater volatility? I think we must consider economics most intently here. On one hand, with a low risk of a second lockdown then we’re likely to see the case count increase but whether this truly impacts the trajectory of the economic recovery is the point of debate – if consumer behaviour is unaffected despite a further rise in the case count then it may not turn into a vol event at all. Economics are key here . With the Fed buying credit ETFs and select individual investment-grade credit instruments it seems unlikely that we’re going to see a material blow out in spreads, which, if this did play out, and this correlation stayed true, would see the USD rise and global equities lower. One to watch. But, it does feel that there is enough in the COVID-19 headlines to limit traders from putting new money to work on current valuations and this suggests we chop around in the near-term and price action could get messy. Keep an eye on GBP, EUR and AUD exposures Also, on the radar, we have an eye on the BoE meeting today (9 pm aest/12 pm BST) with a focus on increased QE and possible more clues on negative rates. Here is a preview we put together – https://pepperstone.com/en-au/market-analysis/bank-of-england-preview-will-the-pound-go-lower-with-bailey-ready-to-take-action-/ Also, we’re testing some decent levels in EURUSD – one to watch with the ECB due to publish its economic bulletin (18:00aest) and US jobless claims due (22:30aest). We should see solid support of the 1.1230/10 area, but if this gives way then it will incentives further covering of USD shorts.

As previously reported, HDR Global Trading Limited awarded a $100,000 grant to Bitcoin Core developer Michael Ford in late March, which built on a previous grant. In an announcement post, HDR detailed the contours of its Open Source Developer Grant program, explaining: "Under this program, we hope to add to those grants we have previously made to relevant developers by providing annual Open Source Developer Grants to developers working on Bitcoin, NodeJS, Java or Kubernetes. In addition we may provide certain smaller grants, from time to time, related to the production of related educational materials, technical workshops or the transcribing or translation of relevant technical content." According to the post, HDR has granted $650,000 to date, including $150,000 to Ford and $500,000 to MIT's Digital Currency Initiative. The company said that it is accepting applications between May 1 and June 30, with offers "expected to be made from July to September." © 2020 The Block Crypto, Inc. All Rights Reserved.

Bitcoin’s total node count fell below 47,000 on Monday, a level not seen since 2017, based on estimates determined by well-regarded Bitcoin developer Luke Dashjr. His numbers show a steady decline in the number of operational nodes from a peak of over 200,000 in January 2018. A decline in total node count means fewer people are participating in validating new transactions and storing copies of the network’s shared transaction history. The new lows count comes at a time of recent surges inpriceandmining power. Related:Bitcoin Outperforming Gold and Stocks so Far This Month Tallying the number of Bitcoin nodes typically relies on estimates instead of concrete data, and opinions on the best methodology for deriving these estimates differ. Dashjr’s estimate relies on a tedious and undisclosed proprietary methodology that could compromise the reliability of the data if it was released, according to its creator. See also:Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Nears All-Time High in Final Adjustment Before Halving Another well-known Bitcoin node count tally, provided for free byBitnodes, shows fresh multi-year lows in the number of BitcoinIPv4nodes in mid-March. This helps to corroborate Dashjr’s data. However, since November Bitnodes data has shown a spike in nodes usingonionservices, which make the node operator more difficult to locate. Curiously, the last bitcoin bull cycles were preceded by significant spikes in new Bitcoin nodes coming online, according to Dashjr.’s estimates. But since April 2019, the total node count estimate has steadily fallen despite periods of relatively bullish price action. Underwhelming price action or recent market crashes may have caused some investors and node operators to simply lose interest and shut off their nodes. Related:Market Wrap: Derivatives May Reduce Miner Selling Pressure After Bitcoin Halving After price crashes, plenty of Bitcoin users “lose interest and stop opening their wallets or running their nodes,” said Jameson Lopp, CTO and co-founder of Casa, a bitcoin storage security company. Lopp considers Bitcoin nodes that continue to run despite market behavior to be “nodes of last resort.” More people also may be shutting off their Bitcoin nodes because, for them, running the software is just too hard. According to Dashjr, “Running a [Bitcoin] node continues to get harder and harder with block sizes exceeding the rate of technological improvement.” Full Bitcoin nodes don’t mine for new bitcoins. Instead, they store individual copies of the blockchain to protect the universal ledger’s accuracy and they allow users to verify transactions issued on the network. See also:Bitcoin Wallets Are Adopting This Tech to Simplify Lightning Payments A dropping node count might not be a problem for the network, provided that “enough” nodes are still operating, said Matt Corallo, full-time open-source bitcoin developer at Square. “Ultimately, the raw number is unimportant. What matters are two things: Are users who transact materially with Bitcoin checking transactions against their own full node, and are there enough nodes to service chain downloads for new nodes,” Corallo explained. But the definition of “enough” is “super hard,” he said. Note: This story originally referred to the developer as Luke Jr., his original moniker.

It is now trading back below the $0.20 level of psychological resistance while $0.1825 remains an important level of support to the downside. In order for XRP to trigger a bullish reversal it needs to break above not only the $0.20 level but also the daily 200 moving average, which is at $0.2125 after sloping to the downside for more than two years. In the past 12 months XRP has spent just three weeks above the 200MA as it continues to struggle due to a lack of bullish momentum. If the $0.1825 level of support eventually falls XRP can be expected to drop to as low as $0.1475, which is around the point it bounced in March. XRP’s notably bearish chart is baffling considering the amount of work the Ripple Foundation has been putting in on a global level, with increasing numbers of significant partnerships being secured. However, one of the main issues that keeps rearing its ugly head in terms of XRP’s price is the over-the-counter token sales that have been commencing. A group of aggrieved XRP investors filed a lawsuit against Ripple over the token sales, although Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse replied by claiming that the sales were “vital to the survival of the company” .

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin rose by 0.63% on Saturday. Partially reversing a 0.90% fall from Friday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,371.3. It was a mixed start to the day. Bitcoin rose to an early morning high $9,357.0 before hitting reverse. Falling short of the major resistance levels, Bitcoin slid to a late morning intraday low $9,178.0. Bitcoin fell through the first major support level at $9,220.30 before striking a late morning intraday high $9,406.6. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $9,427.40, Bitcoin fell back to sub-$9,300 levels before finding late support. Steering clear of the major support levels, Bitcoin bounced back to $9,400 levels before easing back. The near-term bullish trend remained intact in spite of 3 consecutive days in the red mid-week. Bitcoin continued to hold above the 23.6% FIB of $8,900. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a mixed day on Saturday. Bitcoin Cash ABC (-0.67%), Cardano’s ADA (-0.20%), Monero’s XMR (-0.11%), Stellar’s Lumen (-0.17%), and Tezos (-0.13%) saw red on the day. It was a relatively bullish day for the rest of the majors, however. Bitcoin Cash SV (+1.19%), Litecoin (+1.80%), and Tron’s TRX (+1.19%) led the way. Binance Coin (+0.88%), EOS (+0.46%), Ethereum (+0.06%), and Ripple’s XRP (+0.48%), saw modest gains on the day. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap fell to a Monday low $245.97bn before rising to a Wednesday high $267.65bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $260.69bn. Bitcoin’s dominance rose to a Monday high 66.60% before sliding to a Wednesday low 65.79%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 66.16%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.13% to $9,383.7. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning high $9,394.2 before falling to a low $9,355.4 Story continues Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day. Tezos and Tron’s TRX struggled, with losses of 0.37% and 0.26% respectively. It was bullish for the rest of the majors, however, with Binance Coin up by 0.50% to lead the way. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to avoid a fall through the $9,320 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $9,459.27. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Saturday’s high $9,406.6. Resistance at $9,500 has continued to pin Bitcoin back since 11 th June. Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level at $9,459.27 would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin could test the second major resistance level at $9,547.23. Failure to avoid a fall through the $9,320 pivot level could see Bitcoin struggle on the day. A fall through to sub-$9,300 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,230.67 into play. Barring another extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$9,000 levels. The second major support level at $9,090.03 should limit any downside.

The next ten crypto exchanges collected 36% in a combined volume of BTCs leaving other smaller exchanges to share out the remaining 24% of transfer volume. Chainalysis, in a detailed report, also analyzed that though about 96% of retail traders made most of the transactions, the professional traders controlled most of the volume; \x93Retail traders, whom we categorize as those who deposit less than $10,000 USD worth of Bitcoin on exchanges at a time, appear to be the large majority, accounting for 96% of all transfers sent to exchanges on an average weekly basis. \x93Professional traders, however, control the liquidity of the market, accounting for 85% of all the USD value of Bitcoin value sent to exchanges,\x94 the report said. Chainalysis also concluded that Bitcoin\x92s supply makes it similar to gold, giving it a safe haven asset status as digital gold. \x93But this digital gold is supported by an active trading market for those who prefer to buy and sell frequently. The 3.5 million Bitcoin used for trading supplies the market, and, in interaction with the level of demand, determine the price.\x94 The report by Chainalysis also spoke about where Bitcoin presently stays. It said; \x93Roughly 60% of Bitcoin that is not lost is held by a licensed custodial service, or as FATF would refer to it, a Virtual Asset Service Provider (VASP). Most cryptocurrency exchanges would fall into this category, along with hosted wallets. \x93As we can see, this share has risen steadily over time, reflecting the growth of custodial cryptocurrency businesses as Bitcoin has gone more mainstream. \x93The dominance of VASPs becomes even clearer when we consider that, of the remaining 40% of available Bitcoin, which is not currently held by VASPs, 87% has passed through a VASP at some point. Story continues \x93Most people either hold their Bitcoin on VASPs, or acquire their Bitcoin from VASPs.\x94 The article was written by Olumide Adesina an Investment Professional This article was originally posted on FX Empire More From FXEMPIRE: The Weekly Wrap \x96 The FED Delivers, Offsetting Market Concerns over COVID-19\x85 USD/JPY Forex Technical Analysis \x96 Trader Reaction to 106.706 and 108.008 Sets Near-Term Tone E-mini NASDAQ-100 Index (NQ) Futures Technical Analysis \x96 Rally Fizzles as Apple Re-Closes **Last 60 Days of Bitcoin's Closing Prices:** [7117.21, 7429.72, 7550.90, 7569.94, 7679.87, 7795.60, 7807.06, 8801.04, 8658.55, 8864.77, 8988.60, 8897.47, 8912.65, 9003.07, 9268.76, 9951.52, 9842.67, 9593.90, 8756.43, 8601.80, 8804.48, 9269.99, 9733.72, 9328.20, 9377.01, 9670.74, 9726.58, 9729.04, 9522.98, 9081.76, 9182.58, 9209.29, 8790.37, 8906.93, 8835.05, 9181.02, 9525.75, 9439.12, 9700.41, 9461.06, 10167.27, 9529.80, 9656.72, 9800.64, 9665.53, 9653.68, 9758.85, 9771.49, 9795.70, 9870.09, 9321.78, 9480.84, 9475.28, 9386.79, 9450.70, 9538.02, 9480.25, 9411.84, 9288.02, 9332.34] Use the additional daily data provided in the input below for crucial context.

In aSunday poston cybersecurity blog KrebsonSecurity, journalist Brian Krebs warned users of a phishing scam that lures unsuspecting victims to a near-identical version of the privnote.com website known as privnotes.com. However, the fake site doesn’t fully encrypt messages, as Krebs discovered in tests, and can “read and/or modify all messages sent by users.” Just as worrying, it contains a script that hunts out messages containing bitcoin addresses and changes the original address into the bad actor’s own address in the sent message. This would mean any funds sent would arrive at the bitcoin address owned by the criminal, not the one intended by the message sender. “Any messages containing bitcoin addresses will be automatically altered to include a different bitcoin address, as long as the Internet addresses of the sender and receiver of the message are not the same,” Krebs said in the post. “Until recently, I couldn’t quite work out what Privnotes was up to, but today it became crystal clear,” he said. Krebs explained he’d been notified by the owners of privnote.com that someone had built a clone version of their site and that it was tricking users of the legitimate site. Related:Encrypted Messaging Site Privnote Cloned to Steal Bitcoin See also:Crypto Scams Targeting Pacific Communities on the Rise, Say New Zealand Regulators “It’s not hard to see why: Privnotes.com is confusingly similar in name and appearance to the real thing, and comes up second in Google search results for the term “privnote.” Also, anyone who mistakenly types “privnotes” into Google search may see at the top of the results a misleading paid ad for “Privnote” that actually leads to privnotes.com,” Krebs wrote. A quick Google search by CoinDesk verified this finding. Making the scam harder to spot, the self-destructing nature of these messages means victims are unable to go back and check on the bitcoin addresses the script alters: they are sent, read and deleted. According to Allison Nixon, chief research officer at Unit 221B, who helped identify and test the phishing scam, said the script appears to only alter the first instance of a bitcoin address if it’s repeated within a message. “The type of people using privnote aren’t the type of people who are going to send that bitcoin wallet any other way for verification purposes,” Nixon said in the post. “It’s a pretty smart scam.” See also:FBI Warns COVID-19 Scammers Are Targeting Crypto Holders Bitcoin-related scams have been on the rise in recent months, particularly with concerns relating the coronavirus pandemic.U.K residents were warned in late Marchthat scams were being used to exploit fear and uncertainty through text messages and emails posing as an official health organization. “Even if you never use or plan to use the legitimate encrypted message service Privnote.com, this scam is a great reminder of why it pays to be extra careful about using search engines to find sites that you plan to entrust with sensitive data,” Krebs said. • Bootstrapping Mobile Mesh Networks With Bitcoin Lightning • How the Porn Industry Changed During Coronavirus, With Performers Wary of Bitcoin... - Reddit Posts (Sample): []...

Last year, ABI set up a working group to research digital and crypto assets.

In its second guideline, the group said Italian banks are already working with distributed ledger technology, referencing the Spunta project . The project was an initiative by the ABI Lab to integrate blockchain to accelerate the processing of interbank settlements.

He has more than 17 years of trading and asset management experience at firms including Merrill Lynch and Citadel Securities. “Did you look both ways?” I recently took my 7-year-old son out for a bike ride and he started to cross the street without looking. I grabbed his handlebars and shouted, “Did you look both ways?,” and he responded, “Oh, I forgot.” Fortunately, there was no traffic that day and I was right next to him, but I explained to him that remembering to look both ways is not a luxury you can afford to forget. Looking back, I realized I failed to remind him of that before we set out. Foolishly, I was only focused on the rewarding experience of a family bike ride in perfect weather, and momentarily lost sight of the downside risks. Related:Finance and the Real Economy Can’t Stay Out of Sync Forever When managing outside capital, the downside risks have to be top of mind. Even in a space like crypto with asymmetric upside potential, the investing mindset has to shift away from “How high can it go?” to “How low can it go?” Just like my conversation with my son, risk management is not something you can ever afford to forget. I was a corporate bond trader at Merrill Lynch prior to the 2008 financial crisis. Times were good on Wall Street pre-crisis. There weren’t any limits to the size of my trading book as long as I made money and nothing showed up in my risk reports that would raise red flags. The upside was a huge bonus, while the downside was simply losing my job. Trading on Wall Street was like a call option – known downside, unlimited upside. I worked hard to understand the financials of the companies I traded, and I built a reputation in the corporate bond world as a smart credit trader. Over the course of my trading career, I made way more good investments than bad ones. Unfortunately, as a 27-year-old working in a loosely managed system, I was terrible at risk management. The first time I lost $1 million actually happened in the same week that I made $1 million for the first time. I was long the bonds of Trump Entertainment, a well-known Atlantic City. N.J., casino chain owned by Donald Trump. Trump was looking to sell one of the three casinos he owned and it was rumored there was significant interest. Selling this asset would have been a credit positive for bondholders because the cash generated from the sale would have led to a refinancing of the bonds at a price greater than where the bonds were trading. However, revenues were deteriorating rapidly in Atlantic City, especially at Trump properties. The bonds were rated “CCC,” and any standalone analysis of the Trump credit, future revenue and cash flows would have led most people to short the bonds, not own them (which many smart hedge funds did). This was the ultimate “event-driven” investment with binary outcomes. Related:Facebook’s Toothless Oversight Board Has Lessons for Blockchain See also:Jeff Dorman – Crypto Needs a Rational Value Investing Model I woke up one morning to a report in The Wall Street Journal that the Trump Marina Hotel & Casino was going to be sold and there was a buyer willing to pay a high enough price to validate my long thesis. The bonds I owned jumped 5 points that day to 104% of par value. I was long $32 million in bonds and had just made more than $1.4 million of paper profits. Remember when I said the only thing that drew attention on the Merrill trading desk were red flags? Well, “green flags” drew just as much attention, and suddenly people were interested in what I was trading because I had booked a large gain that day. The thing I remember most about that day, though, besides some high fives, was that a very smart, senior trader with 20-plus years of experience leaned over to me and said, “The question isn’t ‘Were you right or wrong?’ the question is ‘Should you have owned that many bonds in the first place?’” I didn’t think much about that statement at the time because I had just made $1.4 million in my trading book, but I think about it every day since. And while I did sell some of the bonds I owned that day, I didn’t sell enough. Sure enough, later in the week, the news broke that the Trump Casino asset sale fell through, and my bonds fell ~10 points. I lost almost $2 million that day. In total, over the course of the week, I only lost a marginal amount of money in my trading book. But I raised a lot of green and red flags, willingly accepted a ton of unnecessary volatility, and lost a lot of sleep…for no reason. When I first entered the digital assets industry in 2017, I met a lot of apparently intelligent people who boasted loudly about their investments. It seemed many people in blockchain figured out how to buy and sell, but it wasn’t evident that many had figured out how to manage risk. The common theme was large allocations to one or two digital assets, then sit back and watch them go up in a bull market. Many of these people even launched funds based on these phantom “track records.” In March 2020, many young crypto investors learned hard lessons about risk management, discovering that managing risk is more than just downside price protection, and managing outside capital is more than just generating returns. Risk management includes operational due diligence on the venues you trade on, discipline with regard to who can trade, and independent oversight via risk committees designed to challenge position sizing. There are no winners whencrypto funds shut downbut there are important takeaways. A strategy built around trading one asset (BTC), on one exchange (Bitmex), with high leverage may not be the most appropriate way to bring investors into this asset class. And those without formal training or experience may be better off learning from those who do as there is no shame in being an apprentice when it comes to managing other people’s money. See also:Jeff Dorman – Never Mind Hodlers, Crypto Needs More Opportunist Investors Fortunately, I learned my lesson the hard way over a decade ago; a lesson that would have helped many in today’s crypto environment. I hear that senior trader’s advice from 2008 in my head every day, and apply it to every risk management decision I make. In the aftermath of that 2008 day, I even built a proprietary risk management system that was subsequently used at three hedge funds where I worked, and we still use today at Arca. This tool is designed specifically to make sure all positions are sized according to reasonable quantitative and qualitative factors. The goal of this tool isn’t to make money, but to avoid large and unnecessary losses. The ability to stay disciplined with risk management changed my career. I always knew I had the tools required to be a successful investor, and I’ve always been convinced I can make smart investments, but it took years to realize the difference between good asset managers and bad ones comes down to more than just picking good investments. Looking back, it’s clear there are a ton of very smart, motivated, talented traders and investors in the world, and that is very true in crypto as well. But there just aren’t that many talented risk managers. It may only take 20 days to learn how to trade and 20 months to learn how to analyze investments, but it takes 20 years and counting to learn how to manage risk. Crypto likes to disrupt, but you just can’t disrupt experience. There is no shortcut to that. • Staking Will Turn Ethereum Into a Functional Store of Value • Bitcoin’s Halving Is Nothing Like Quantitative Tightening... - Reddit Posts (Sample): []...

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin fell by 0.64% on Tuesday. Partially reversing Monday’s 4.28% rally, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,635.2. It was a bearish start to the day for Bitcoin and the broader market. Bitcoin slid from an early morning intraday high $9,724.0 to a late morning intraday low $9,589.7. Steering well clear of the first major support level at $9,390.27, Bitcoin recovered to $9,700 levels before easing back. A late pullback saw Bitcoin fall back to a low $9,611.8 and into the red before steadying. The near-term bullish trend remained intact in spite of a 2 nd consecutive week in the red last week. Bitcoin continued to hold above the 23.6% FIB of $8,900. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a mixed day on Tuesday. Monero’s XMR (+1.06%), Tezos (+3.84%), and Tron’s TRX (+0.54%) found further support. It was bearish for the rest of the majors, however. Cardano’s ADA and Stellar’s Lumen fell by 1.02% and 1.13% respectively to lead the way down. Binance Coin (-0.73%), EOS (-0.66%), and Litecoin (-0.45%) weren’t far behind. Bitcoin Cash SV (-0.10%), Ethereum (-0.05%), and Ripple’s XRP (-0.15%) saw more modest, while Bitcoin Cash ABC ended the day flat. Through the start of the week, the crypto total market cap rose from a Monday low $258.11bn to a high $272.54bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $269.02bn. Bitcoin’s dominance fell to a Monday low 65.85% before jumping to a high 66.20%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 65.89%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.15% to $9,649.6. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning low $9,633.7 before striking a high $9,658.7. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day for the majors. Story continues Tron’s TRX bucked the trend, with a 0.04% loss at the time of writing. It was bullish for the rest of the majors, with Tezos rallying by 1.80% to lead the way. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through the $9,650 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $9,709.57. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break back through to $9,700 levels. Barring another extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Tuesday’s high $9,724 would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin could test the second major resistance level at $9,783.93 and resistance at $9,800. Failure to move through the $9,650 pivot level could see Bitcoin struggle on the day. A fall through the morning low $9,633.7 would bring the first major support level at $9,575.27 into play.

SVIP officials offered startups a fresh batch of use cases – an alternative to Social Security numbers; e-commerce, food and natural gas supply chain traceability projects; and an essential worker license inspired by COVID-19 – plus the same $800,000 in funding and potential to contract with the government that they’ve wooed first-time federal partners with in the past. Coming two years after SVIP first ventured into the realm of distributed technologies and forgeries and four years into the Department’s private sector blockchain efforts, the renewed call highlighted the extent to which this lively corner of DHS has courted and funded startups building blockchain solutions for a cabinet department eager to deploy them. Related: Encrypted Messaging Site Privnote Cloned to Steal Bitcoin “We are in the business of finding global talent to solve our local problems,” said Anil John, SVIP’s technical director at the event. “We are not in the business of doing science experiments.” SVIP previously bankrolled Factom , Mavennet , SecureKey , Digital Bazaar and others’ respective efforts to build DHS everything from data-securing Border Patrol camera platforms to timber credential mechanisms. Part of the Science and Technology Directorate, the program has handed out millions in funding . John, who is known as the “Blockchain Guru” of DHS, challenged the virtual event’s 300 participants to pitch deployable tools for the Privacy Office, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), the three DHS branches posing SVIP’s five new use cases. Revamping the Social Security number Though the Silicon Valley Innovation Program often focuses on funding solutions for internal DHS problems, its call on behalf of the DHS Privacy Office offered startups the rare opportunity to create a tool that touches nearly every person in the country: an alternative to the Social Security number (SSN). Story continues Related: Maker of Coldcard Bitcoin Wallet Rolls Out an Extra-Strength 'USB Condom' “We’re not out there to replace SSN, we are there to create something that people can share back and forth without leaking [personally identifiable information],” said David Linder, the senior director for Privacy Policy and Oversight at DHS. Such a tool could address one of the most pressing but seemingly insurmountable privacy conundrums in American life. The SSN\xa0– the de-facto national identification number and also a gateway to financial services, health care and countless other services – is a highly insecure way of demonstrating one’s identity. The Privacy Office wants startups to come up with an interoperable alternative that DHS can use internally. Indeed, a 2019 directive mandates that DHS phase the number out.

Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Despite the COVID-19 e-commerce boom, bitcoin is hardly seeing more merchant usage as a transactional currency than it was five years ago. “We’ve been doing this for six years and it’s still very rough around the edges,” said Brian Hoffman, co-founder of OB1, maker of crypto marketplace app Haven and its desktop counterpart, OpenBazaar. The Haven app has logged 30,000 downloads since launching in July 2019. Since there’s a fine line between open commerce and bitcoin -fueled black markets, Hoffman said compliance costs are a chief concern for his startup. Any seller can list any item using the open-source protocol, but only compliant offerings get picked up by OB1’s search engine.

The technology is just there. We wanted to do a different paradigm for the business.” Although a variety of e-commerce trends are booming during the Great Lockdown, crypto payments remain exceedingly niche. Read more: Bitcoin Usage Among Merchants Is Up, According to Data From Coinbase and BitPay “We’ve seen about half a million dollars [spent] in the last three months for bitcoin, bitcoin cash, and litecoin. The majority is definitely bitcoin,” Hoffman said, whose startup earns money through affiliate marketing and a fraction of revenue from shops that use OB1 products. Related: Bitcoin Still on Track for Quarterly Gains After Drop Toward $9K Now compare that to marketplaces like Shopify , which also allows merchants to accept bitcoin but declined to comment for this story. The e-commerce platform reported $470 million in revenue during the first quarter of 2020, a 47% increase from the previous quarter. Even if we take OB1’s smaller scale into account, the crypto startup’s modest growth doesn’t appear to reflect the broader retail shift. Story continues Merchant adoption among merchants and shoppers is far more comparable to the tiny community of daily active users of decentralized applications (dapps) in the gaming sector. In short, Bitcoin bulls who argue bitcoin is a better retail currency than Ethereum is a developer platform are speculating on future usage rather than current analysis. So, why bitcoin? Since the underlying software is more decentralized than marketplaces like Amazon, OB1 can’t charge all merchants. (That’s a feature, not a bug, considering how Etsy fees gouge smaller merchants . Regardless, Etsy usage is up and the company’s stock price tripled over the past three months.) OB1 laid off 12 employees earlier this year and is now a team of five. “It protects your privacy while doing commerce; you can’t do that on Etsy. The information is on your device (for both sellers and buyers) and doesn’t go anywhere,” Hoffman said. “Now, after the layoffs, we have a refined focus on getting OB1 to be profitable moving forward.” Read more: E-Commerce Giant Shopify Joins Libra Association Sergio Abi-Naked and Dirk Abinakad, founders of the men’s accessories retailer Simply Carbon Fiber, said they started accepting bitcoin a few weeks ago, using the bitcoin payment processor OpenNode. So far no one has used bitcoin during the broader “increase in sales” sparked by the coronavirus crisis. “I see the potential for it in the future, so we wanted to be prepared,” the retail founders, Abi-Naked and Dirk Abinaka, said about bitcoin. “We think this is where payments and e-commerce is going.” It appears the merchants earning bitcoin are often evading censorship or serving niche connoisseurs. Generally speaking, bitcoin usage continues to rise at a modest rate over the past year. According to a spokesperson for payment processor BitPay, volumes increased 10% in Q1 2020 compared to Q4 2019, primarily for computer products and services . This included an average of 98,000 transactions per month, according to the spokesperson. “We saw a resurgence when eBay and Amazon were blocking mask sellers and stuff,” OB1’s Hoffman said. “Now we have new Chinese sellers trying to sell [medical] equipment.” Likewise, OpenNode’s head of growth, Julie Landrum, said the company has seen the most bitcoin payments to merchants selling “luxury, high-value sales across borders” and “high-risk merchants” selling CBD products or erotic materials. Beyond retail, Globeair CEO Bernhard Fragner said his luxury travel company used BitPay to process four bitcoin payments worth $30,000 over the past few weeks. “More people want to fly privately,” Fragner said of the private jets. “We expect to see more payments in bitcoin.” Experimental e-commerce Among smaller businesses, risky merchants are the primary sector where bitcoin is slowly gaining traction. “It’s a little bit harder for those companies to get banking relationships, even though it’s perfectly legal,” Landrum said of high-risk merchants. Many OpenNode customers automatically convert bitcoin to fiat until they are ready to withdraw, she said, to avoid losing value in the meantime from volatility. They can withdraw their earnings in either bitcoin or fiat. Spurred by customer demands, Landrum said OpenNode is applying for a wide range of financial services licensing beyond money transmission. “It could be payroll, paying suppliers or gaming winnings,” Landrum said of prospective payments tools coming to the backend merchant platform. “This supports [merchant] business operations. In some cases, they send us fiat and want us to pay out in bitcoin.” However, she added, licensing is a slow and expensive process. It takes startups months to compliantly shift their strategy to offering the services users want.

For example, ChromaWay co-founder Or Perelman said his startup is developing a VR shopping mall demo, where shoppers can use an integrated game wallet to purchase items with crypto in virtual stores. But it’s too soon to say whether people will actually use cryptocurrency this way. Meanwhile, Facebook is doubling down on shopping features, potentially even with its newly rebranded crypto subsidiary, Novi. “I think there are a lot of opportunities with Libra to make the process of commerce and payments helpful – a lot easier,” Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg said during the company’s shareholders’ call last month. OB1’s Hoffman said that as of 2020, bitcoin commerce offers an “alternative” to marketplaces like Etsy, especially for small merchants. But the commerce sector of the bitcoin economy isn’t growing at the same pace as mainstream competitors offering corporate brands – even taking the smaller scale into account. “We’re making tons of sales using OpenBazaar,” Hoffman said of the mask and appliance sellers OB1 itself operates. “But if [shoppers] want an iPhone, we’re not there yet.” Related Stories The COVID-19 E-Commerce Boom Hasn’t Trickled Down to Bitcoin, Despite Advantages The COVID-19 E-Commerce Boom Hasn’t Trickled Down to Bitcoin, Despite Advantages', 'Despite the COVID-19 e-commerce boom, bitcoin is hardly seeing more merchant usage as a transactional currency than it was five years ago.\n“We’ve been doing this for six years and it’s still very rough around the edges,” said Brian Hoffman, co-founder of OB1, maker of crypto marketplace app Haven and its desktop counterpart, OpenBazaar.\nThe Haven app has logged 30,000 downloads since launching in July 2019.

Now it’s looking to reinvent browsing. Today, as the Handshake Network records its 1 millionth transaction, HandyBrowser will go live . It’s a dedicated way to access the uncensorable internet ecosystem made possible through the distributed Handshake Network, as well as anything else you would normally search for. “This is a pivotal moment for Handshake, much like the advent of Web3 tech in general,” Steven McKie, HandyBrowser’s technical manager and CEO of Amentum, said in a phone call. After building the peer-to-peer Handshake network as a labor of love with two partners, lead developer Alex Smith and quality-assurance specialist Thomas Costanzo, McKie hopes to entice peers, developers and investors. Related: With Arweave's 'Lazy' Approach to Smart Contracts, Its Version of Web3 Does More See also: The Domain Startups Building an Uncensorable Internet on Top of Ethereum “We just want folks to geek out on it,” McKie said, adding this private and uncensorable web browser is an “if you build it, they will come”-type bet on the future. Under development for over two years, Handshake minimizes the role of centralized authorities in the internet’s basic infrastructure. The much-anticipated protocol garnered significant buzz at launch in February, though remained more of a hobbyist pursuit. HandyBrowser is aimed at all-comers, who don’t necessarily want to know what’s driving the car, only that the car gets from A to B safely. Built using NW.js and Chromium , the browser runs a full Handshake node and light client to enable access to Handshake-compatible sites and the traditional web. In doing so, it strengthens the Handshake protocol and disintermediates the centralized players in web browsing. Related: Bitcoin News Roundup for May 28, 2020 “Without all the bloat of the modern web, the internet is even better,” McKie said. “Every site you know and love will load more quickly.” Story continues Revolutionizing web browsing is one of blockchain’s most championed use cases, and has attracted competing players with varying levels of success. Namecoin, an early fork of Bitcoin, tried to turn web search into a type of transaction . It saw little traction. Meanwhile, the Brave browser, which rewards users for their attention, now has 13.5 million monthly users. Even IBM filed a patent to get in on the game. When asked if HandyBrowser is looking to outcompete Chrome , Opera or Brave , McKie said it’s more like “co-opertition,” a portmanteau of cooperation and competition. The browser can serve simply as a redundant mirror to the internet, but also can be forked and modified to suit the dominant players. Revolutionizing web browsing is one of blockchain’s most championed use cases. “I use Chrome and Brave. If Handshake makes parts of those better? Awesome. That just means the web is better. We’ve done our part. If Handshake becomes a default browser that the open-source community embraces, cool. Or if it doesn’t happen and it becomes a reference as a proof-of-concept, that’s also fine,” McKie said. In this sense, McKie has not added monetizing features to this Web3 product, but said it’s open for other developers to integrate as they wish. This follows Handshake’s long-standing dedication to decentralization, open source and fair-play initiatives. After raising $10.2 million from Silicon Valley notables including the Founders Fund, Polychain Capital and Draper Associates, the project airdropped a stash of pre-mined coins to open-source developers working on the project. What’s in a name? The Handshake protocol is a decentralized system to reroute web traffic and provide true ownership over websites and domain names. It works by creating an alternative to the internet’s naming convention, the Domain Name System (DNS). Often called the internet’s phonebook, the DNS is really more like a telephone operator that connects human-legible names to their machine-friendly counterparts. Using a network of servers, the DNS “translates” a URL, like CoinDesk.com, into its standardized IP address, like 52.85.84.3. This is critical, as anyone who’s tried to memorize their alphanumerical wallet address knows: human beings aren’t equipped to keep a string of numbers in their heads. See also: Handshake Exchange Sees $10M in Token Trades as Race for Censorship-Resistant Websites Heats Up Like most of the current internet infrastructure, the DNS is maintained by a few centralized organizations and companies. Chief among them is the Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), which administers top-level domains (TLD) – or addresses ending in .com and .org. Handshake partially dismantles this DNS hierarchy. Instead of having to trust ICANN with the responsibility to maintain all TLDs, Handshake records the ownership and location of websites on a blockchain. Users bid on their website names in an auction, using the native HNS token, and register them under a public key on the distributed Handshake network. Shake on it Importantly, Handshake isn’t trying to replace the current DNS but supplement it with something more secure and private. To this end, Handshake reserved the Alexa Top 100,000, (the most popular domains) to prevent whales from coming in to squat on them. McKie said ICANN controls those keys, and the keys to any .com and .net site on the Handshake DNS. (Whether they claim them is an open question, though Handshake will offer an HNS reward if they claim their sites on-chain.) The protocol went live for miners in early February and began allowing domain name auctions two weeks later. The system worked as promised, said McKie. A number of people have built websites and registered over 125,000 open domains on the system, including hobbyists just saying “hello world” to fellow travelers, as well as someone partaking in the age-old web tradition of claiming they were here first. Still, access to these sites was a technical affair. To access Handshake sites, people needed to manually reset their DNS resolvers to Handshake, rather than the traditional IP system. Either that, or run a full node. With a native browser, this friction is eliminated. “For the Handshake protocol there seems to be a huge vacuum in resolving handshake TLDs. By that I mean a lot of users aren’t tech-savvy and wouldn’t want to run nodes but would love to own domains and browse other Handshake domains,” Joseph Peculiar, Lead Blockchain Engineer at Yellowcard Financial and an early HandyBrowser user, said. Although HandyBrowser may eventually compete with browsing top-dogs like Chrome, Safari and Opera, it also leverages these systems. “Handshake is designed to be backwards compatible with the existing web and ICANN root when a name isn’t present on Handshake DNS,” McKie said. “You can go to any legacy site.” See also: The Internet Is a Right, Not a Luxury: 30% of Americans Still Don’t Have It It’s this feature, ahead of any possible Handy-chrome-flippening event, that actually proves Handy’s utility already. While censorship isn’t a looming threat in most Western countries, the Freedom on the Net foundation has found over the past two years, authoritarian regimes are increasingly censoring the web and extending their reach over an open internet. Part of Handshake’s promise is that if a website is inaccessible in a particular country, it will remain accessible as a “redundant mirror.” While only a few businesses – including Brave and Bitcoin.com – have claimed their Handshake names, McKie said the system’s monetary incentives may lead to “people slowly opting in.” And if enough do, Handshake would not only be “an alternative to the internet, but the trusted alternative,” he said, and ultimately make the internet a more stable environment. “It’s an organic emergent adoption overtime – just like Bitcoin. You can’t deny it when it works for so long, or so well, especially out of the box,” McKie said. Launch As with most beta launches, HandyBrowser is currently missing certain conveniences internet users have grown accustomed to, including tab management and certain hotkeys. “It’s a continual work in-progress to build a reference client people will love,” McKie said. In a bid to attract users, the HandyBrowser team is thinking about building some native Skype-like videoconferencing and messaging tools “to replace many of those centralized middlemen that exist for those services.” But it’s ultimately an experiment in proving useability. Success under this method ranges from enticing a few crypto-curious web developers to contribute a little code, to convincing Google to begin resolving Handshake names behind 8.8.8.8 or CloudFlare’s behind 1.1.1.1. “As long as the web gets better, and Handshake is part of the equation, that’s all that matters,” McKie said.

Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin fell by 0.91% on Friday. Following on from a 0.52% decline on Thursday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,173.1. A bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning intraday high $9,299.0 before hitting reverse. Falling short of the first major support level at $9,400.33, Bitcoin slid to an early afternoon intraday low $9,054.1. Finding support at the first major support level at $9,062.33, Bitcoin briefly recovered to $9,200 levels before easing back. The near-term bullish trend remained intact in spite of the recent pullback to sub-$9,300 levels. Bitcoin continues to hold above the 23.6% FIB of $8,900. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a mixed day on Friday. EOS (+0.06%), Litecoin (+1.73%), and Ripple’s XRP (+0.63%) bucked the trend on the day. It was a bearish day for the rest of the majors, however. Bitcoin Cash SV and Tezos slid by 2.51% and 3.57% respectively to lead the way down. Bitcoin Cash ABC (-1.59%), Cardano’s ADA (-1.31%), and Ethereum (-1.11%) also saw relatively heavy losses. Binance Coin (-0.82%), Monero’s XMR (-0.44%), Stellar’s Lumen (-0.47%), and Tron’s TRX (-0.02%) saw modest losses on the day. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Monday high $272.54bn before falling to a Thursday low $251.99bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $255.72bn. Bitcoin’s dominance jumped to a Monday high 66.24% before sliding to a Wednesday low 65.52%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 65.76%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.21% to $9,154.2. A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin fall from an early morning high $9,179.9 to a low $9,130.0. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day for the majors. Story continues Bitcoin Cash SV and Ripple’s XRP bucked the trend early on, rising by 0.59% and by 0.04% respectively. It was a bearish start for the rest of the majors, however. Stellar’s Lumen and Tezos were down by 1.17% and by 0.93% to lead the way down early on. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would move through the $9,175 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $9,296.7. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from $9,200 levels. Barring another extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high $9,299.0 would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin could test the second major resistance level at $9,240.3. Failure to move through the $9,175 pivot level could see Bitcoin struggle later in the day. A fall back through to sub-$9,100 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,051.8 into play. In the event of another extended crypto sell-off, the second major support level at $8,930.5 and 23.6% FIB of $8,900 could come into play.

Daily Context for Date: 2020-06-27 **Financial & Commodity Data:** - Gold Closing Price: $1772.50 - Crude Oil Closing Price: $38.49 **Bitcoin Market & On-Chain Metrics:** - Market Capitalization: $167,997,907,438 - Hash Rate: 108283617.573483 - Transaction Count: 275489.0 - Unique Addresses: 546558.0 **Social & AI Sentiment:** - Fear & Greed Index: 0.43 **Other Textual Data:** - Daily Tweets (Sample): N/A - Contextual Past News Article: There is unfortunately a lack of meaningful price action to report on in terms of XRP’s chart this week, with it continuing to stagnate around the $0.20 mark. It has now remained in a tight range since May 9 when it slumped to a low of $0.175 before bouncing back to the upside. The lack of movement in price is reiterated by a relative lack of trade volume across all major exchanges, with just $1.05 billion being traded over the past 24-hours compared to May’s daily high of more than $3 billion. Levels of support and resistance remain the same for XRP, with $0.2279 remaining a key point of resistance to the upside while $0.183 should prop price up in the event of a sell-off. However, undoubtedly the most important indicator to keep an eye on is the daily 200 moving average, which is now residing at $0.2137. XRP has traded above the daily 200MA for just three weeks out of the past 12 months as it continues its seemingly never-ending downtrend, which means a break above this level could indicate a long-awaited bullish reversal. If a breakout can be achieved XRP is expected to reach upside price targets of both $0.296 and $0.347, the latter of which is important as it remains the yearly high. From a macro perspective breaking above the yearly high would form a higher lower for the first time in more than one year, which could bring around higher targets of up to $0.50 For more news, guides and cryptocurrency analysis, click here .

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin fell by 1.72% on Saturday. Following on from a 0.91% decline on Friday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,015.3. It was a mixed start to the day for Bitcoin. In the early hours, Bitcoin dipped to a low $9,120.0 before rising to a mid-morning intraday high $9,202.5. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $9,296.7, Bitcoin tumbled to a late intraday low $8,855.0. The sell-off saw Bitcoin fall through the first major support level at $9,051.8 and second major support level at $8,930.5. Finding late support, Bitcoin moved back through the second major support level to wrap up the day at $9,000 levels. The 23.6% FIB of $8,900 had limited the downside on the day. The near-term bullish trend remained intact in spite of the recent pullback to sub-$9,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was also a bearish day on Saturday. Bitcoin Cash SV (-8.25%), EOS (-6.01%), and Tezos (-6.81%) led the way down. Binance Coin (-4.00%), Bitcoin Cash ABC (-5.85%), Litecoin (-4.67%), Ripple’s XRP (-4.14%), and Stellar’s Lumen (-5.73%) also saw deep red. Cardano’s ADA (-3.86%), Ethereum (-3.79%), Monero’s XMR (-3.59%), and Tron’s TRX (-1.97%) saw relatively modest losses on the day. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Monday high $272.54bn before falling to a Saturday low $245.07bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $248.82bn. Bitcoin’s dominance slid to a Wednesday low 65.52% before jumping to a Saturday high 66.68%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 66.30%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.42% to $8,977.0. A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin fall from an early morning high $9,016.0 to a low $8,970.2. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Story continues Elsewhere, it was also a bearish start to the day for the broader market. Bitcoin Cash SV (-1.02%), Stellar’s Lumen (-1.66%), Tezos (-1.03%), and Tron’s TRX (-1.18%) led the way down early on. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would move through the $9,025 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $9,193.53. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from $9,100 levels. Barring an extended crypto rebound, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high $9,202.5 would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin could test the second major resistance level at $9,371.77. Failure to move through the $9,025 pivot level could see Bitcoin struggle later in the day. A fall back through the 23.6% FIB of $8,900 would bring the first major support level at $8,846.03 into play. In the event of another extended crypto sell-off, the second major support level at $8,676.77 may be tested.

The world’s largest cryptocurrency, which now has a market cap of $176 billion , is currently consolidating at around $9,600 after surging by 11.18% since Monday’s halving. Miners now receive 6.25BTC per block as opposed to 12.5BTC and while it might not have an immediate impact on price action, it is considered bullish from a macro perspective due to a lack of new supply. Nicholas Pelecanos, Head of Trading at NEM Ventures , revealed that he expects increased volatility over the coming weeks due to miner fundamentals. “In the event of a bull run, I would be looking for a move above $9,800. Long term, I’m extremely bullish on price, and in my opinion the fundamentals have never been stronger. Regardless of whether a sell off occurs, I believe once we cross this level, the trajectory is high.” He said. A correction from here back below $9,000 would increase the bearish potential of a further pull back as it would mark a double top at $10,000. However, the recent golden cross on the daily chart, as noted in this week’s Coin Rivet analysis, should provide momentum for a swift move back towards the psychological level of $10,000. With the 50 exponential moving average moving above the 200 EMA for the first time since January Bitcoin could well make a charge for a new yearly high above $10,500 as fears around the coronavirus pandemic begin to subside.

On 31st October 2008, a paper was published called “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System”. This was authored by Satoshi Nakamoto, the inventor of Bitcoin. To date, no one knows who this person, or people, are. The paper outlined a method of using a P2P network for electronic transactions without “relying on trust”. On January 3 2009, the Bitcoin network came into existence. Nakamoto mined block number “0” (or the “genesis block”), which had a reward of 50 Bitcoins.

Every day we see the gutting news: the rising body count, the millions of unemployed, the makeshift morgues in public parks. We grieve for those we have lost. We worry about those who are vulnerable. We’re sick of staying at home. We miss restaurants and pubs. And then there are the second-, third- and fourth-order impacts. These are tougher to spot. In the blizzard of news from the U.S. emergency stimulus package, for example, it was easy to overlook a fairly shocking proposal from the House of Representatives: that the COVID-19 relief money (aka the $1,200 checks) could be digitally zapped to Americans instead of going through traditional banks. As CoinDesk’s own Michael Casey writes in the forward to “ The Currency Cold War , “the “half-baked proposal was subsequently removed, but it marked a dramatic widening in the Overton window of what is open to discussion. A digital dollar is now on the table.” Meanwhile, in another corner of this emerging conflict, libra looms large. And China gets ready to launch its central bank digital currency (known as the DCEP). Related: 4 Ways COVID-19 Will Bring Banks and Regulators to Crypto The upshot? COVID-19 could ignite something of a digital currency war. See also: Money Reimagined: As Tech, Politics and COVID-19 Collide, a Global Reset Looms Good thing someone just wrote a book about that exact possibility. Fintech guru David Birch, a consultant and prolific speaker on the blockchain conference circuit, wrote “The Currency Cold War: Cash and Cryptography, Hash Rates and Hegemony,” just in time for our global pandemic. He nailed the timing. For years Birch had his own pet theories about a clash of digital currencies. But “that was just me, just some guy talking about it,” he tells me in his British accent, which seems always on the verge of a sly joke. “And who cares, you know?” Then came Jackson Hole. Related: Marketing Ethereum 2.0 and Herding Cats With Hudson Jameson Story continues In the fall of 2019, at a Jackson Hole, Wy., event Birch describes as a “Burning Man for people who run central banks,” the Governor of the Bank of England, Mark Carney, said that perhaps it was time for some form of “synthetic hegemonic currency” to deal with what he called the “destabilizing dominance” of the U.S. dollar. This comment seemed to galvanize Birch. “The Governor of the Bank of England is emphatically not just some guy,” Birch says. He realized the Currency Cold War was not just his own pet theory – it was imminent. It might already be happening. And it has consequences. Which currency would society choose? Would it be one or many? It’s crazy. What the f— are they doing mailing out checks to people? “Which digital currency?” Birch writes in “The Currency Cold War.” “Will we really be choosing between the Federal Reserve and Microsoft (between dollar bills and Bill’s dollars)? Between Facebook’s Libra and China’s Digital Currency/Electronic Payment (DCEP) system? Between spendable drawing rights (SDRs) and Kardashian kash?” Regular readers of CoinDesk, of course, already know cryptocurrencies could compete with traditional fiat. That idea is not new. Birch takes the next logical step by asking, effectively, what happens when the rubber hits the road? Let’s pretend we get a Facebook libra or a digital yuan. How would that change the world order? What would that mean to a farmer in Africa, or what would it mean for the United States’ ability to throw around its muscle? In the book, Birch frames the hypothetical conflict of a digital yuan vs. Facebook libra as “Red vs. Blue,” in a cheeky nod to the cult videos inspired by Halo. (Birch even asked the publisher if they could call the book “Red vs. Blue,” and they politely told him he was crazy.) Red vs. Blue? Crypto vs. Fiat? Public vs. Private? On a quarantine-Zoom call a few weeks before appearing at Consensus Distributed on May 11 at 9 a.m. ET, Birch explains why the currency Cold War matters, how it impacts global “soft power,” and why you might see things like IBM Money…or an Islamic Money that cannot be used to buy alcohol. CoinDesk: Your book seems incredibly prescient. How does COVID-19 impact a potential digital currency war? David Birch: I wouldn’t have wished it this way, obviously, but yeah, COVID-19 might have done me a bit of a favor. You must admit that to somebody outside of the U.S., the idea that government stimulus money will arrive in the form of checks being mailed in the post to people seems odd. This is like having an economic stimulus for the Little House on the F–ing Prairie. It’s crazy. What the f— are they doing mailing out checks to people? So the idea that the government could provide a stimulus just by sending money directly into people’s wallets — not even into their bank accounts, but directly into their wallets — that’s really interesting. That might well provide an incredible stimulus to digital currency that none of us saw coming. See also: How a Flurry of ‘Digital Dollar’ Proposals Made It to Congress In the book you consider the possibility of the U.S. dollar losing its dominance. What are the implications? Birch: I think you need to divide it into two categories. So there’s what does it mean in financial terms? And of course, America’s ability to denominate its own debt translates into a tremendous fiscal advantage. So if America couldn’t do that, it couldn’t just print its way out of problems. This is what General [Charles] de Gaulle rather famously referred to as America’s “exorbitant privilege.” And that has implications for trade. But I think what’s more interesting are the non-financial implications. Such as? Birch: America’s ability to exercise soft power. I stress that I’m not making a political point. But for example, do you remember a few months ago, America threatened to cut Turkey off? I can’t even remember what the dispute was about… Who can? There were 17 crises between now and then! [Editor’s note: This would be the U.S. threatening to cut Turkey from an F-35 stealth fighter jet program.] Birch: Yeah, a lifetime of crises ago. But the point is that if I’m some country, and America says you have to do something I don’t particularly want to do, I have to do it because otherwise I can no longer buy imports and I get cut off from the global financial system. But what if there was something that was a bit like money but it just wasn’t run by the Americans? Or let’s say you’re a country in Africa. You sell most of your oil to China, so you decide to price your oil in yuan. You sell your oil in digital yuan. The U.S. Treasury wants to sanction you for doing something, what do you care? You don’t use their stupid dollars anymore. None of your money goes through the New York money central banks, so what do you care? There are several countries, I’m sure, that actively would like that to happen. How could this impact an average person? Birch: Let’s say you’re a farmer in Africa. And you’re buying tractors and things from China, and you’re buying fertilizer from China, and you’re supplying food to Chinese companies that are building ports and whatever else things companies do. You’ve got the choice between getting paid in your local currency, which you may not be too happy about because it may be a little volatile — it may be depreciating or it may have currency controls attached to it. Or you could get paid in U.S. dollars, except you’re not allowed to have a U.S. dollar bank account. And even if you did have a U.S. dollar bank account, when you decide to send some money to your cousin in Afghanistan you can’t, because it gets blocked by the U.S. Treasury. Or maybe you have a wallet on your phone where you can store your Chinese digital currency. Given those choices, I can understand why a great many people, particularly along China’s emerging Belt and Road , I can see why some of those people would make that choice. I’m sure you can, too. I personally feel that money is so important that it has to be under democratic control. In the book you talk about “Red vs. Blue,” and I totally got the Halo reference, by the way. Birch: It was Halo, yeah! [Laughs.] I thought it was hilarious but no one knew what I was talking about. I’m so old. It fell completely flat. I wanted to call the book “Red vs. Blue,” but my publisher, who knows a lot more about selling books than I do, said, “It’s absolutely meaningless. No one will know what you’re talking about.” So what does Red vs. Blue mean, outside of Halo? Birch: It’s the difference between private and public. So if I take Facebucks, which is what I always call them… I think it’s a much better name [than libra]. How come I know more about marketing than Mark Zuckerberg? I don’t get it. If I take Facebucks, I take Facebucks because I think other people are going to take Facebucks. That’s how money works. And there could be 2.5 billion people around the world who are perfectly happy to accept Facebucks. Zuckerberg said his vision was that sending money would be just as easy as sending a photo. Well, if that were true, if that vision was realized, that would be great, right? I mean, everyone would use that, wouldn’t they? So is that a bad thing? Well, you know, if you run a government and you want to have some control over things, you’d probably think that was a bad thing, right? I can see it argued either way… Birch: Now, if I’m the government, actually, I might be okay with that as long as certain criteria are met, like [know-your-customer]. But I can’t help but feeling… even if Facebook did that, I mean, would you have your salary paid in Facebook money? Right. Birch: Or If you get chucked out of Facebook, who’s the ombudsman you call? You see people all the time get banned from Twitter and they can’t figure out why. What would happen with Facebucks? Like, what happens if you wake up one morning and, all of a sudden, Facebook won’t let you send money to anybody? What do you do about it? Or would thi... - Reddit Posts (Sample): no_data...

The Toronto-listed mining company says the funding will keep it competitive as smaller entities with older equipment feel the pinch from last month\x92s halving. \x93We\x92re proud to close the first prospectus offering by a cryptocurrency mining company in Canada and further improve Hut 8\x92s lead as one of the largest public bitcoin miners,\x94 said Jimmy Vaiopoulos, Hut 8\x92s interim CEO, in a statement. Related: Market Wrap: Bitcoin Traders Expect Big Move as Volatility Plummets Overall, investors purchased a total of 5.7 million \x93units\x94 in Hut 8, at $1.45 apiece. Each unit contains one common share in Alberta-based Hut 8, as well as the option to purchase another share in the next 18 months at $1.85. The funding will be invested in new equipment. Ryleigh Ebron, an external spokesperson for Hut 8, said the company be able to increase mining capacity by more than a fifth to 1,150 petahash (PH/s). Once installed, the company could comprise just under 1% of the total hash rate for the bitcoin blockchain, currently around 115,200 PH/s according to Blockchain.com. \x93This financing is expected to strengthen Hut 8\x92s cash flows and balance sheet,\x94 Ebron added. See also: Chinese Bitcoin Miner Producer Ebang Is Launching an Offshore Exchange Related: Chinese Bitcoin Miner Producer Ebang Is Launching an Offshore Exchange Hut 8\x92s finances have been the subject of much discussion. It saw a $116.6 million loss just in Q4 2019. As a report from CoinDesk Research highlighted earlier this year, the company made a wafer-thin gain of just over $2 million in 2019. The stock price says it all : In April 2018, Hut 8 traded at CAD $4.50 (~$3.28) but has since spiraled downwards, hitting a low of CAD $0.59 ($0.43) by mid-March this year. At the time of writing, shares were at CAD $0.98 (~$0.72). Story continues Hut 8 has attributed this poor performance to a deleterious agreement that obliged them to only buy mining equipment from manufacturer Bitfury, its single biggest investor. That prevented it from accessing the faster miners coming from Bitfury\x92s rivals, leaving it with rapidly aging equipment. Over time, that meant it made up less of the total hashrate and won far fewer blocks, which hit revenue. In January, Hut 8 amended the agreement so it could buy mining equipment elsewhere. Interestingly, Hut 8 said it will use all the new funding to buy mining equipment from Bitfury\x92s rival, MicroBT. Most of the new rigs will arrive between July and November. See also: Argo Buys $500K Worth of Zcash Miners as Bitcoin Revenue Shrivels Hut 8 hopes the halving will make it harder for some of their competitors, the ones operating with older equipment, to stay in the game, said Ebron. \x93The halving is arguably better for miners who can get access to the latest generation of bitcoin mining equipment as they are far more profitable and will benefit from the drop in network difficulty as older equipment continues to be turned\xa0offline,\x94 Ebron said. Ebron also pointed out the miner is in a particularly advantageous position because lower electricity rates in Alberta mean Hut 8 can better weather fluctuations in the volatile bitcoin price. Hut 8 listed on the Toronto Securities Exchange in October 2019. The exchange has already approved the listing of newly sold shares, subject to the mining company meeting listing conditions, which include having more than CAD $7.5 million (~$5.5 million) in net tangible assets, such as new mining equipment.

Every day the Zacks Equity Research analysts discuss the latest news and events impacting stocks and the financial markets. Stocks recently featured in the blog include: International Business Machines IBM, DocuSign DOCU, Microsoft MSFT and PayPal Holdings PYPL. Here are highlights from Friday’s Analyst Blog: Add 4 Stocks to Watch List on Evolving Usage of Blockchain Coronavirus crisis has presented new challenges and exposed several loopholes in our digital ecosystem. The prominent issues that have surfaced are data tracing, security, visibility and management, and supply chain supervision. Evolution of blockchain practices in a bid to address these challenges is expected to democratize the benefits of blockchain technology in the days ahead and aid in countering the pandemic in an efficient way. Blockchain-based automated system is transparent and incorruptible, and meant to provide unaltered information. Since blockchain utilizes a distributed consensus, it is difficult to tamper with the records without being noticed by an entire network. Thereby, the possibility of monetary losses is low with minimum chances of double counting and hacking. The technology is being utilized to enhance smart payment systems, secure financial transactions, advance shipping and transportation, modernize government agencies and institutions, and even detect critical illnesses. Growth in IoT, autonomous vehicles, AR/VR and wearables and other connected devices, and coronavirus crisis induced rapid adoption of cloud computing are expected to drive the adoption of blockchain technology. Notably, Coherent Market Insights estimates the blockchain technology market to witness a CAGR of 58.7% between 2019 and 2027. Stocks in Limelight With Blockchain-Based Developments The evolution of food tracing by leveraging blockchain technology deserves a special mention. International Business Machines is a pioneer and undisputed leader when it comes to providing blockchain technology. Recently, Norwegian Seafood Association, Sjømatbedriftene, announced collaboration with IBM in a bid to utilize blockchain for seafood traceability and enhanced visibility across supply chains. Story continues The Association will adopt the IBM Blockchain Transparent Supply solution to enhance the delivery of products to stores based in the United States and Canada. Markedly, Norway happens to be the second-largest exporter of seafood globally with seafood exports worth over 2.7 million tons in 2019. Further, per ReportLinker report, blockchain supply chain market is expected to see a CAGR of 80.5% between 2019 and 2025. These factors instill optimism in the latest development. Moreover, IBM, currently carrying a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), is anticipated to benefit from robust adoption and broad-based availability of IBM Blockchain World Wire — a blockchain driven global payments network. The network is aimed at accelerating and optimizing cross border payments. DocuSign is a popular name for authenticating documents over the Internet through electronic signature. The stock, with Zacks Rank of 2 (Buy), leverages blockchain technology to enable customers adapt to smart tech and make paper agreements digital. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here . The company’s Trust Service Provider model helps users to integrate any blockchain-based identity providers and enhance security while authenticating a signer. Notably, per ResearchAndMarkets data, the blockchain identity management market is set to hit $1.93 billion by 2023 from $90.4 million in 2018 at a CAGR of 84.5%. This projection favors prospects of the company. Microsoft is focusing on developing advanced Azure-powered blockchain solutions in decentralized identity space. The beta version of the tech giant’s Bitcoin-backed decentralized identity tool — ION — went live in early June on mainnet. The tool is aimed at fast-tracking of data, which can be utilized by anyone to improve the reach of the coronavirus crisis response programs. Moreover, the acquisition of GitHub, touted to be the largest open source repository, provides Microsoft ample exposure for the development of robust blockchain tools. The above factors are likely to provide an edge to this Zacks Rank #3 stock over cloud rivals including Amazon Web Services (AWS) and Alibaba Cloud that are also eyeing the blockchain-as-a-service market. PayPal Holdings is one bitcoin-related stock that should be on your radar. The leader in digital payment processes helps merchants to accept crypto payments via partnerships with three major bitcoin payment processors — BitPay, GoCoin and Coinbase. However, as a recent Coindesk report suggests, PayPal intends to commence the direct selling of cryptocurrency to users via built-in wallet functionality. Per a source familiar with the matter quoted by Coindesk, PayPal plans to “offer buying and selling of crypto” and that the new service is likely to be rolled out “in the next three months, maybe sooner.” Moreover, the hiring push in early 2020, to boost its new Blockchain Research Group, authenticates the rumor to certain extent. PayPal, currently carrying a Zacks Rank #3, had partnered Facebook for its ambitious Libra project but later withdrew from the same. Notably, the social media giant is now reportedly revamping Libra, amid immense scrutiny, with partners like Lyft, Spotify, and Shopify, still on board. Conclusion Blockchain services are well poised to gain mainstream adoption in 2020 on breakthrough product rollouts and noteworthy partnerships. Moreover, coronavirus crisis spurred demand for contactless payments, digital transactions and supply chain visibility solutions favor prospects of the technology. Further, emergence of enterprise blockchain solutions and immense research in the field is paving the way for the technology to gain impetus in the second half of 2020 and beyond.

For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through the $9,145 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $9,212.47. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Tuesday’s high $9,206.5. Barring an extended crypto rebound, the first major resistance level and Tuesday’s high would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin could test the second major resistance level at $9,274.23 and $9,300 levels before any pullback. Failure to move through the $9,145 pivot level could see Bitcoin struggle on the day. A fall back through to sub-$9,100 would bring the first major support level at $9,082.97 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, Bitcoin should avoid the 23.6% FIB of $8,900. The second major support level at $9,015.23 should limit any downside on the day.

While that battle has been waged, however, another event has almost been missed: the birth of a new kind of fiat currency, which could forever reshape the relationship between money, economic power and geopolitical clout. An official Chinese digital yuan, more than five years in the making, is now in pilot runs to slowly start replacing the physical legal tender. If the experiment succeeds, this new cash, valued the same as the familiar banknotes bearing Mao Zedong’s image, will become the world’s first sovereign token to reside exclusively in the ether. The trials are taking place just as the blame game around the coronavirus deepens mistrust between the U.S. and China. With President Donald Trump warning that Washington would respond if Beijing intervenes against protests and democratic movements in Hong Kong, chances of a detente from last year’s trade war are fading. Outside the People’s Republic, the big question is if the digital yuan is a challenger to the dollar. Within China, though, there’s a more mundane explanation for why Beijing wants to turn banknotes in circulation into virtual tokens. Chinese consumers have bypassed both computers and credit cards to embrace mobile payment apps, which have gone on to spawn large money-market funds investing in high-yielding wealth-management products. This has led to the accumulation of risks in opaque shadow banking. Bringing them out in the open requires a leg up for traditional lenders in payments, an area where financial technology has left them far behind. The digital yuan, which will be pushed out to consumers via banks, seeks to restore this missing balance; it will allow authorities to “regulate an overstretched debt market more effectively,” says DBS Group Holdings Ltd. economist Nathan Chow. Still, there’s also a power play. It isn’t a coincidence that China’s project picked up speed last year as Facebook Inc. announced Libra. The proposed stablecoin promised to hold its value against a basket of major official currencies rather than gyrating wildly like Bitcoin. When it looked like regulators in the U.S. and elsewhere would nix this synthetic global cryptocurrency, the Libra Association curbed the scope of its undertaking. But the idea of “a regulated global network for cost-effective retail payments,” as described by Singapore state investor Temasek Holdings Pte, a new member of Libra’s Geneva-based governing body, remains alive. For Beijing to shake the dollar’s hegemony, it has to pre-empt Silicon Valley from taking the pole position. Hence the hurry for China’s test runs. According to media reports, half the May transport subsidy for Suzhou municipal employees will be in the form of digital currency electronic payment, or DCEP, as it’s being called in the absence of a catchier moniker. The pilot plan in Xiong’an, a satellite city of Beijing, includes coffee shops, fast food, retailers, theaters and bookstores, Goldman Sachs Group Inc. has noted. The other trials are reserved for Chengdu and Shenzhen. Thanks to Alipay and WeChat Pay, 80% of Chinese smartphone users whip out their mobiles to make payments, more than anywhere in the world. To them, the DCEP wallets being provided by the big four state banks should seem much the same. But there are differences. In this new system, a low-value transaction can go through even if both parties are offline. Also, this is sovereign liability, safe if an intermediary goes bankrupt. The big four lenders — and later fintech firms — will distribute the tokens, but the funds won’t reside in bank accounts. This will be unlike existing payment apps that only move one institution’s IOUs to another. Beijing was going to launch the digital money even before the pandemic. However, adoption could be faster now because of people’s fear of catching an infection from handling cash. Also, it’s possible to trace in real time whether an anti-virus subsidy, given out in tokenized form, is reaching the target. Once it has, the tracking would be “turned off” to ensure corporate and household spending stays anonymous, Goldman says. Strictly speaking, though, the anonymity of cash will no longer exist. Authorities can look under the hood of pseudonymous transactions for unwanted activity, an outcome far removed from the vision that drove libertarians (and money launderers) to cryptocurrencies in the first place. With the outbreak giving legitimacy to intrusive physical contact tracing, the case for financial tracing gets even stronger. Exchange of digital yuan between customers and merchants will pop up on a centralized ledger, and go through far more swiftly than in Bitcoin-style setups that rely on widely distributed ledgers of asset ownership. Every nation projects power when others desire its money — something that costs the home country nothing to produce. But as with any digital network, the sovereign tokens that take off first could end up winning disproportionately. The digital yuan could find customers overseas, especially in places where China is making belt-and-road investments. For one thing, they wouldn’t have to pay banks fat fees for running the $124 trillion-a-year business-to-business international transfers market. By distributing digital currency through banks, China has given its big institutions a chance to match the payment technology of fintech rivals. But it’s possible that a central bank in another country would bypass intermediaries altogether, potentially making the state the monopoly supplier of money to retail customers. That, as I wrote in December, could upend banking. The digital yuan may have started modestly, but it might pave the way for changes that are both ambitious and long outlast the coronavirus.

Blockchain sleuths at ZenGo, a wallet startup, have found a vulnerability that affected at least three major competing crypto wallets – Ledger Live, Edge and Breadwallet (BRD) – and potentially more. The bug, which the Tel Aviv-based firm calls BigSpender, allows a hacker to double-spend a user’s funds and possibly prevent them from ever using their wallet again. It works by exploiting how certain wallet’s handle Bitcoin’s replace-by-fee (RBF) function, a failsafe that enables users to swap an unconfirmed transaction with one that has a higher fee. Related: Nomura-Backed Crypto Custody Venture Launches After 2 Years in the Works “[BigSpender] can lead to substantial financial losses and in some cases to make the victim’s wallet totally unusable, with no way for the victim to protect themselves,” ZenGo CEO Ouriel Ohayon said in an email. “So this can be seen as a high severity attack .” Like other optional Bitcoin features with associated vulnerabilities, such as time-locked transactions , the RBF function has become a standard way for users to send value back and forth. It was pitched and accepted by the developer community as a way for Bitcoiners to circumvent slow confirmation times by paying more in fees. See also: Raphael Auer – The Security Trilemma and the Future of Bitcoin From the outset, there were fears the RBF function was not well supported by bitcoin wallets, despite being integrated at the Bitcoin system’s protocol layer, the pseudonymous Bitcoin researcher 0xB10C said. “ZenGo shows that a user can be tricked into thinking he is receiving bitcoin when he is not. I believe this to be novel. I’ve at least not heard about it before,” he said. Related: Thailand to Raise $6.4M With Sale of Blockchain-Based Bonds The firm tested nine different wallets including Ledger Live, Trust wallet, Exodus, Edge, Bread, Coinbase, Blockstream Green, Blockchain and Atomic Wallet. Of those tested, three were found to be vulnerable to the theoretical exploit. Story continues “We have not tested all the wallets but it could be that if three of the largest are implicated, more out there are, too,” Ohayon said. ZenGo alerted the firms about its findings, and gave them 90 days to repair the vulnerability. Ledger and BRD have released code changes to prevent the attack from happening, and paid undisclosed bug bounties to ZenGo, while Edge is undergoing a “significant refactor” that will address the issue, Edge CEO Paul Puey said in an email. The hack leverages a known vulnerability in how certain wallets treat unconfirmed transactions, including but not limited to RBF ones, said Peter Todd, a former Bitcoin developer and RBF’s architect . How it works: Attackers send funds to their intended victim, and set fees low enough to nearly guarantee the transaction will not receive a confirmation. For vulnerable wallets, this pending transaction will be reflected as an increase in the recipient’s account balance, possibly leading some victims to erroneously believe the pending transaction has already been confirmed. The attacker then “cancels” the pending transaction, in ZenGo’s terminology, by using RBF to change the recipient to an address they control.\xa0 By the time the victim realizes that the transaction has, in fact, been canceled, he’ll have delivered the goods. To be clear: Similar attacks were possible before RBF, but in the absence of proper precautions by wallet providers, the payment option has highlighted the risk. This discrepancy between a victim’s stated and actual balance could be exploited by malicious actors tricking people into providing goods or services without paying for them – except the minimal amount of fees spent. In this sense, the flaw is with a wallet’s UX and UI design. Double trouble? If a hacker can trick a person into believing they received payment, while simultaneously maintaining control of the bitcoin, this is a double-spend , according to ZenGo’s researchers. Others contest this use of the term. “You have to decide what is the definition of a double-spend. Most people that aren’t trolls would say that a double-spend is when you have a confirmed transaction that is somehow invalidated and spent with a different confirmed transaction,” Jameson Lopp, CTO of custody startup Casa. This attack, by its nature, takes advantage of the way wallets display unconfirmed transactions. In this sense, the attack – while fraudulent – isn’t breaking the way the Bitcoin code functions. “The whole point of the blockchain is to prevent the double-spend problem,” Lopp said. “It goes back to the original Satoshi white paper , which says the solution to double-spending is to have a distributed ledger that many people are checking.” The only thing you can rely on is transactions that have been mined A general rule of thumb when transacting with bitcoin is to never trust a transaction with fewer than six confirmations, 0xB10C said. This was a point repeated by a number of developers, including Todd, Lopp and BRD CTO Samuel Sutch. If this exploit goes through, at least some of the responsibility is on the victim. “The only thing you can rely on is transactions that have been mined,” Todd said. In this sense, Sutch called BigSpender a “minor bug,” and “kind of contrived,” but also something worth fixing and paying a bug bounty for.

Strengthening concerns about global energy demand increased momentum after a surge in COVID-19 caseloads around the world led China to postpone flights and close schools. In addition, a surge in U.S. crude inventories to a record high in two weeks, dampened oil traders’ bullish sentiments even though the U.S government data showedstockpiles for distillate and gasoline dropped. Understanding Brent Crude; Brent crude is the leading global benchmark for Atlantic basin crude oils. The international benchmark is used to set the price of crude oil of about two-thirds of the world’s traded crude oil including Nigeria’s crude. “People are concerned about the coronavirus resurging in China and crude stockpiles rising,”said Lachlan Shaw, head of commodity research at National Australia Bank. Consequently, to tackle weakened oil demand, OPEC and its major allies agreed to a record supply cut that started last month, while Nigeria and other major oil-producing countries pledged to produce less crude oil, in other to support crude oil prices. OPEC said these cuts were already serving its purpose. “The oil market was strongly supported by a reduction of the global crude oil surplus, thanks mainly to the historic voluntary production adjustment agreement,”OPEC said, adding it saw a “gradual recovery” in demand until the end of the year.

Credit to u/singularity87 for the original post over 3 years ago. \n\n&amp;#x200B;\n\nPeople should get the full story of [r/bitcoin](https://www.reddit.com/r/bitcoin/) because it is probably one of the strangest of all reddit subs.\n\n[r/bitcoin](https://www.reddit.com/r/bitcoin/), the main sub for the bitcoin community is held and run by a person who goes by the pseudonym [u/theymos](https://www.reddit.com/u/theymos/). Theymos not only controls [r/bitcoin](https://www.reddit.com/r/bitcoin/), but also bitcoin.org and bitcointalk.com. These are top three communication channels for the bitcoin community, all controlled by just one person.\n\nFor most of bitcoin\'s history this did not create a problem (at least not an obvious one anyway) until around mid 2015. This happened to be around the time a new player appeared on the scene, a for-profit company called Blockstream. Blockstream was made up of/hired many (but not all) of the main bitcoin developers. (To be clear, Blockstream was founded before mid 2015 but did not become publicly active until then). A lot of people, including myself, tried to point out there we\'re some very serious potential conflicts of interest that could arise when one single company controls most of the main developers for the biggest decentralised and distributed cryptocurrency. There were a lot of unknowns but people seemed to give them the benefit of the doubt because they were apparently about to release some new software called "sidechains" that could offer some benefits to the network.\n\nNot long after Blockstream came on the scene the issue of bitcoin\'s scalability once again came to forefront of the community. This issue came within the community a number of times since bitcoins inception. Bitcoin, as dictated in the code, cannot handle any more than around 3 transactions per second at the moment. To put that in perspective Paypal handles around 15 transactions per second on average and VISA handles something like 2000 transactions per second. The discussion in the community has been around how best to allow bitcoin to scale to allow a higher number of transactions in a given amount of time. I suggest that if anyone is interested in learning more about this problem from a technical angle, they go to [r/btc](https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/) and do a search. It\'s a complex issue but for many who have followed bitcoin for many years, the possible solutions seem relatively obvious. Essentially, currently the limit is put in place in just a few lines of code. This was not originally present when bitcoin was first released. It was in fact put in place afterwards as a measure to stop a bloating attack on the network. Because all bitcoin transactions have to be stored forever on the bitcoin network, someone could theoretically simply transmit a large number of transactions which would have to be stored by the entire network forever. When bitcoin was released, transactions were actually for free as the only people running the network were enthusiasts. In fact a single bitcoin did not even have any specific value so it would be impossible set a fee value. This meant that a malicious person could make the size of the bitcoin ledger grow very rapidly without much/any cost which would stop people from wanting to join the network due to the resource requirements needed to store it, which at the time would have been for very little gain.\n\nTowards the end of the summer last year, this bitcoin scaling debate surfaced again as it was becoming clear that the transaction limit for bitcoin was semi regularly being reached and that it would not be long until it would be regularly hit and the network would become congested. This was a very serious issue for a currency. Bitcoin had made progress over the years to the point of retailers starting to offer it as a payment option. Bitcoin companies like, Microsoft, Paypal, Steam and many more had began to adopt it. If the transaction limit would be constantly maxed out, the network would become unreliable and slow for users. Users and businesses would not be able to make a reliable estimate when their transaction would be confirmed by the network.\n\nUsers, developers and businesses (which at the time was pretty much the only real bitcoin subreddit) started to discuss how we should solve the problem [r/bitcoin](https://www.reddit.com/r/bitcoin/). There was significant support from the users and businesses behind a simple solution put forward by the developer Gavin Andreesen. Gavin was the lead developer after Satoshi Nakamoto left bitcoin and he left it in his hands. Gavin initially proposed a very simple solution of increasing the limit which was to change the few lines of code to increase the maximum number of transactions that are allowed. For most of bitcoin\'s history the transaction limit had been set far far higher than the number of transactions that could potentially happen on the network. The concept of increasing the limit one time was based on the fact that history had proven that no issue had been cause by this in the past.\n\nA certain group of bitcoin developers decided that increasing the limit by this amount was too much and that it was dangerous. They said that the increased use of resources that the network would use would create centralisation pressures which could destroy the network. The theory was that a miner of the network with more resources could publish many more transactions than a competing small miner could handle and therefore the network would tend towards few large miners rather than many small miners. The group of developers who supported this theory were all developers who worked for the company Blockstream. The argument from people in support of increasing the transaction capacity by this amount was that there are always inherent centralisation pressure with bitcoin mining. For example miners who can access the cheapest electricity will tend to succeed and that bigger miners will be able to find this cheaper electricity easier. Miners who have access to the most efficient computer chips will tend to succeed and that larger miners are more likely to be able to afford the development of them. The argument from Gavin and other who supported increasing the transaction capacity by this method are essentially there are economies of scale in mining and that these economies have far bigger centralisation pressures than increased resource cost for a larger number of transactions (up to the new limit proposed). For example, at the time the total size of the blockchain was around 50GB. Even for the cost of a 500GB SSD is only $150 and would last a number of years. This is in-comparison to the $100,000\'s in revenue per day a miner would be making.\n\nVarious developers put forth various other proposals, including Gavin Andresen who put forth a more conservative increase that would then continue to increase over time inline with technological improvements. Some of the employees of blockstream also put forth some proposals, but all were so conservative, it would take bitcoin many decades before it could reach a scale of VISA. Even though there was significant support from the community behind Gavin\'s simple proposal of increasing the limit it was becoming clear certain members of the bitcoin community who were part of Blockstream were starting to become increasingly vitriolic and divisive. Gavin then teamed up with one of the other main bitcoin developers Mike Hearn and released a coded (i.e. working) version of the bitcoin software that would only activate if it was supported by a significant majority of the network. What happened next was where things really started to get weird.\n\nAfter this free and open source software was released, Theymos, the person who controls all the main communication channels for the bitcoin community implemented a new moderation policy that disallowed any discussion of this new software. Specifically, if people were to discuss this software, their comments would be deleted and ultimately they would be banned temporarily or permanently. This caused chaos within the community as there was very clear support for this software at the time and it seemed our best hope for finally solving the problem and moving on. Instead a censorship campaign was started. At first it \'all\' they were doing was banning and removing discussions but after a while it turned into actively manipulating the discussion. For example, if a thread was created where there was positive sentiment for increasing the transaction capacity or being negative about the moderation policies or negative about the actions of certain bitcoin developers, the mods of [r/bitcoin](https://www.reddit.com/r/bitcoin/) would selectively change the sorting order of threads to \'controversial\' so that the most support opinions would be sorted to the bottom of the thread and the most vitriolic would be sorted to the top of the thread. This was initially very transparent as it was possible to see that the most downvoted comments were at the top and some of the most upvoted were at the bottom. So they then implemented hiding the voting scores next to the users name. This made impossible to work out the sentiment of the community and when combined with selectively setting the sorting order to controversial it was possible control what information users were seeing. Also, due to the very very large number of removed comments and users it was becoming obvious the scale of censorship going on. To hide this they implemented code in their CSS for the sub that completely hid comments that they had removed so that the censorship itself was hidden. Anyone in support of scaling bitcoin were removed from the main commun...

Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin fell by 1.51% on Thursday. Reversing a 0.98% gain from Wednesday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,100.0. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning intraday high $9,266.2 before hitting reverse. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $9,322.13, Bitcoin fell to a mid-morning low $9,171.8. Steering clear of the major support levels, Bitcoin recovered to $9,260 levels before a 2 nd sell-off. The 2 nd sell-off saw Bitcoin slide to a late afternoon intraday low $8,950. Bitcoin fell through the first major support level at $9,133.53 and the second major support level at $9,027.17. Avoiding the 23.6% FIB of $8,900, Bitcoin recovered to $9,100 levels to limit the loss on the day. While breaking back through the second major support level, the first major support level at $9,133.53 pinned Bitcoin back. The near-term bullish trend remained intact in spite of the recent pullback to sub-$9,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a mixed day on Thursday. Cardano’s ADA slid by 4.03% to lead the way down. Binance Coin (-2.72%), Bitcoin Cash ABC (-2.06%), Bitcoin Cash SV (-2.59%), Ethereum (-2.02%), Litecoin (-1.79%), Stellar’s Lumen (-2.48%), Tezos (-2.63%), and Tron’s TRX (-1.73%) also struggled. EOS (-0.71%), and Ripple’s XRP (-0.83%) saw relatively modest losses. Monero’s XMR bucked the trend, rising by 1.19%. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Wednesday high $260.82bn before falling to a Thursday low $249.3bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $254.86bn. Bitcoin’s dominance rose to a Monday high 66.29% before falling to a Thursday low 65.63%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 65.81%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.12% to $9,110.8. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin fall to an early morning low $9,083.0 before rising to a high $9,110.9. Story continues Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day. Binance Coin (-0.02%), Ethereum (-0.11%), Litecoin (-0.05%), Monero’s XMR (-0.12%), Stellar’s Lumen (-0.31%), and Tezos (-0.80%) struggled early on. It was a relatively bullish start for the rest of the majors. At the time of writing, Cardano’s ADA was up by 0.54% to lead the way. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to avoid a fall back through the $9,100 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $9,260.8. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Thursday’s high $9,266.2. Barring an extended crypto rebound, the first major resistance level and Thursday’s high would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin could test the second major resistance level at $9,421.6 before any pullback. Failure to avoid a fall back through the $9,100 pivot level could see Bitcoin struggle on the day. A fall back through to sub-$9,100 would bring the first major support level at $8,944.6 into play. Barring another extended crypto sell-off, Bitcoin should avoid the second major support level at $8,789.2. The 23.6% FIB of $8,900 should limit any downside on the day.

Bitcoin behaves more like a highly leveraged position and follows the market trends in a more volatile, dramatic up and down swings,” said Wayne Chen, CEO and director of Interlapse Technologies, a fintech firm.\nThe one-month metric oscillated largely in the range of -30% to 50% for 12 months before rising to record highs above 60% on June 30. The data indeed shows that bitcoin’s correlation with the S&P 500 is somewhat inconsistent.\nThe one-year correlation has also risen to lifetime highs above 37%, according to Skew. One should note, though, that readings between 30% to 50% imply a relatively weak correlation between variables.\nRelated:Bitcoin Rises in Line With Stocks After Dip Below $9K\n“Bitcoin, by all accounts, is still a risk asset.

Bitcoin recovered from an early dip to strike a late morning intraday high $9,496.9 before hitting reverse. Falling well short of the first major resistance level at $9,606.27, Bitcoin slid to a late intraday low $9,285.0. The reversal saw Bitcoin fall through the first major support level at $9,300.27 before finding late support. Bitcoin broke back through the first major support level to $9,400 levels, limiting the loss on the day. The near-term bullish trend remained intact in spite of last week’s sell-off, with Bitcoin holding well above the 23.6% FIB of $8,900. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a bearish day on Thursday.

Through the current week, the crypto total market cap fell to a Monday low $246.94bn before rising to a Wednesday high $266.87bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $260.24bn. Bitcoin’s dominance rose to a Monday high 66.60% before sliding to a Wednesday low 65.87%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 66.10%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.48% to $9,355.0. A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin fall from an early morning high $9,400.0 to a low $9,333.4. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day on Friday. Story continues Binance Coin was up by 0.33% to buck the trend early on. It was bearish for the rest of the pack, however, with Cardano’s ADA down by 1.05% to lead the way down. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move through the $9,394 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $9,502.93 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Thursday’s high $9,496.6. Resistance at $9,500 has continued to pin Bitcoin back since 11 th June. Barring a broad-based crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Thursday’s high $9,496.9 would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin could test the second major resistance level at $9,595.87. Failure to move through the $9,394 pivot level could see Bitcoin struggle on the day. A fall through the morning low $9,333.4 would bring the first major support level at $9,291.03 into play. Barring another extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$9,000 levels. The second major support level at $9,182.07 should limit any downside.

Bitcoin is a decentralized cryptocurrency, governed by code and supported by a technology known as blockchain. Miners in the world of bitcoin generally compete with each other with the help of specialized computers to solve complicated mathematical problems to validate bitcoin transactions. Whichever miner wins the competition receives newly-minted bitcoin. And all such mining activities happen in blocks, which is primarily a group of transactions fused into one. Now, these miners generally receive 12.5 bitcoin per block mined. But that was almost half of 25 bitcoins in 2012. What’s more, halving of bitcoin is expected to happen on May 12, and the reward per miner will be trimmed to 6.25 new bitcoin or approximately $55,000 at the current bitcoin price. But will the halving boost the price of bitcoin? Since bitcoin halving tightens its supply, it creates a level of scarcity that propels its prices. If we go back to the 2012 halving, bitcoin prices picked up pace in the months that follow, with price of bitcoin surging from $2 to $1,031 a year later, highlighting a whopping 51,000% jump. Similarly, at the time of 2016 halving, bitcoin prices climbed from $650 to $2,518 a year later. By the way, bitcoin has done fairly well amid the coronavirus crisis. Since Mar 16, bitcoin has soared 84%, while the broader S&P 500 is only up 24%. On a year-to-date basis, bitcoin is up 22%. Bitcoin’s price has gone up as it acts as a hedge against any economic slowdown. Needless to say, the coronavirus outbreak has weighed on corporate profits and hampered economic growth, with many expecting a recession in the near term. The virus is infecting thousands of people worldwide, disrupting supply chains and retraining movement between countries. Governments across the globe are struggling to control this health crisis and resorting to lockdowns to check the spread of the virus. To top it, several Wall Street bigwigs are showing keen interest in cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology. And this bullish approach toward bitcoin is surely driving digital assets. For instance, JPMorgan Chase & Co. JPM has introduced JPM Coin, which will be helpful in handling digital settlements. 3 Stocks to Gain From the Bitcoin Run If you are looking to tap the rising bitcoin trend, you may take a look at the following companies that are making use of bitcoin and technologies that support it, including blockchain. Microsoft CorporationMSFT, incidentally, is facing stiff competition from Amazon.com, Inc. AMZN in the cloud computing space. As a result, the tech behemoth has launched a fully-managed blockchain service, integrated with Azure Active Directory. Microsoft's fiscal third-quarter results benefited from momentum in Azure, impressive Teams user growth led by coronavirus-induced work-from-home wave and uptick in Surface devices. The company, currently, has a Zacks Rank #2 (Buy). The company’s expected earnings growth rate for the current and next year is 19.8% and 9.1%, respectively. You can seethe complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here. PayPal Holdings, Inc. PYPL, a leader in digital payment processes, sealed a deal with three major bitcoin payment processors, BitPay, GoCoin and Coinbase, to help PayPal merchants accept bitcoin as a mode of payment. PayPal’s first-quarter results were driven by robust growth in total payments volume owing to increasing net new active accounts. Moreover, customer engagement on the company’s platform has strengthened. The company, currently, has a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold). The company’s expected earnings growth rate for the current and next year is 7.1% and 22%, respectively. International Business Machines CorporationIBM has been one of the early providers of the blockchain technology.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin rose by 0.57% on Saturday. Reversing a 0.30% decline from Friday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,147.7. It was a mixed start to the day for Bitcoin. Bitcoin rose to an early morning high $9,104 before pulling back. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $9,120.23, Bitcoin slid to a mid-afternoon intraday low $9,060.0. Steering clear of the first major support level at $9,041.43, Bitcoin rallied to a late afternoon intraday high $9,204.0. Bitcoin broke through the first major resistance level at $9,120.23 and second major resistance level at $9,167.27. A late pullback saw Bitcoin fall back through the second major resistance level at $9,167.27. The near-term bullish trend remained intact in spite of the recent pullback to sub-$9,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a bullish day on Saturday. Cardano’s ADA led the way, rallying by 3.78%. Bitcoin Cash ABC (+2.07%), Litecoin (+2.43%), Monero’s XMR (+2.52%), and Tezos (+2.38%) also made solid gains. Binance Coin (+1.90%), Bitcoin Cash SV (+0.14%), EOS (+1.66%), Ethereum (+1.94%), Ripple’s XRP (+1.09%), Stellar’s Lumen (+0.61%), and Tron’s TRX (+1.06%) trailed the front runners. Through the current week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Wednesday high $260.82bn before falling to a Thursday low $249.45bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $257.34bn. Bitcoin’s dominance rose to a Monday high 66.29% before falling to a Saturday low 65.30%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 65.48%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was flat at $9,147.9. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning high $9,152.3 before falling to a low $9,142.7. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day. Story continues Cardano’s ADA was down by 1.83%, at the time of writing, to lead the way down. Ethereum (-0.03%), Litecoin (-0.33%), and Monero’s XMR (-0.56%) were also in the red. It was a bullish start for the rest of the majors. Bitcoin Cash SV and Tron’s TRX were both up by 0.36% to lead the way. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to avoid a fall through the $9,137 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $9,214.47. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break back through to $9,200 levels. Barring an extended crypto rebound, the first major resistance level and Saturday’s high $9,204.0 would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin should break through the second major resistance level at $9,281.23 before any pullback. Failure to avoid a fall through the $9,137 pivot level could see Bitcoin struggle on the day. A fall back through to sub-$9,100 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,070.47 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, Bitcoin should avoid sub-$9,000 and the 23.6% FIB of $8,900. The second major support level sits at $8,993.23.

I will assume, though, that because you are reading this you have an interest in markets and/or crypto assets. And because this is a newsletter aimed at professional investors, I will assume you care about a bit more than prices going up/down/sideways. That should put us on more or less the same page as to what we explore here. However, this week I want us all to question the lens through which we judge the evolution of markets. Not just crypto markets – all markets, because it is becoming increasingly clear that sooner or later the distinction will be irrelevant. You’re reading Crypto Long & Short , a newsletter that looks closely at the forces driving cryptocurrency markets. Authored by CoinDesk’s head of research, Noelle Acheson, it goes out every Sunday and offers a recap of the week – with insights and analysis – from a professional investor’s point of view. You can subscribe here . Related: Blockchain Bites: E-Gold Claims, Arca's New Fund and Generation Z What those markets look like is relevant, though, and I am increasingly aware my view on that may be influenced by my age. So might yours. It could be useful, then – perhaps even fun if not slightly discomforting – to try to see the evolution of markets from the point of view of a different generational label. Here’s an example: Many market observers, myself included, have been celebrating the emergence of prime brokerage services that have clout and experience. The latest to join the growing list of big names is London-based B2C2, which started providing over-the-counter liquidity to crypto markets in 2015, and this week announced a partnership with and investment from Japanese financial conglomerate SBI Holdings which will enable it to move towards adding prime services to its already active distribution. We’re excited about this because it represents a maturation of the crypto markets and removes one of the significant barriers standing between institutions and crypto investment: the structural inefficiency of capital. Given a choice of crypto prime brokers with strong balance sheets, the reasoning goes, more institutions will be willing to participate, and the influx of demand and liquidity will push up asset prices. A new crypto market era could be dawning. Story continues But what if the real dawning is coming from a totally different direction? What if a cultural shift is emerging that could end up reshaping traditional markets to look more like the crypto markets?

But cryptocurrency markets have stayed quiet as traders expect a big move. Bitcoin was trading hands around $9,250 as of 20:00 UTC (4 p.m. ET). Bitcoin at $9,250 as of 20:00 UTC (4 p.m. ET), up 1.2% over 24 hours BTC trading range (past 24 hours): $9,000-$9,300 Ether up 3% in trading, at around $232 Bitcoin 30-day volatility continues to drop Decentralized exchange volume grows 70% in June Ether , the second-largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, gained 3%, trading around $232 as of 20:00 UTC (4 p.m. ET), according to Bitstamp. Despite trading above $9,250, bitcoin is still stuck within a tight range of a few hundred dollars above $9,000. As a result, 30-day volatility continues to decline. In fact, bitcoin’s volatility reached its lowest mark since Feb. 23, according to Coin Metrics .

Tesla made an all-time high Wednesday, climbing $1,134, up more than 6% from its daily open. Zoom also bounced back toward its all-time high of $262 after dropping Friday through Monday, up 3.6% from its Wednesday open. Why is bitcoin so quiet? There are simply “more eyeballs away from the crypto market and more towards traditional financial markets,” said Eliézer Ndinga, research associate at digital asset manager 21Shares. Many retail traders are using the popular retail equities trading platform Robinhood to speculate as traditional markets rally amid the on-going coronavirus pandemic. “Despite various efforts to boost institutional adoption, retail traders account for 96% of all exchanges’ transfers,” Ndinga added. For many of these traders, the stock market may be more interesting than cryptocurrency markets. Story continues Despite retail investors’ temporarily waning interest, institutional investors continue to develop the cryptocurrency market’s infrastructure.

The decline of the bitcoin market coincided with a significant increase in trading volumes of Ethereum-based decentralized exchanges (DEXs). Data collected from Dune Analytics reveals that DEXs posted a monthly volume of $1.51 billion for June, a 70% increase from May. This development also represents a 46% jump over the previous all-time high in March.

( NIO ) shares charged 22.71% higher Monday after the Chinese electric vehicle maker reported June sales jumped 179% from a year earlier despite challenges from the pandemic. The better-than-expected figure comes on the back of U.S. rival Tesla, Inc. ( TSLA ) smashing Wall Street quarterly delivery projections. NIO delivered 3,740 vehicles last month, taking its second-quarter tally to 10,331 vehicles. It marks the first times the Shanghai-based carmaker has exceeded 10,000 quarterly shipments – an impressive feat amid slipping global auto sales. As well as topping its delivery expectations, the company’s chief operating officer Steven Feng remains confident of meeting operational efficiency targets. ‘We are pleased to deliver solid results driven by our competitive products, superior services, and expanding sales network. Our deliveries in the second quarter of 2020 exceeded the high end of our earlier projection, and we are confident that our goals on gross margin and operational efficiency will be achieved.’ Feng said, per CleanTechnica . Investors may have already factored in most of the upside, given the company’s American Depositary Receipt (ADR) listed on the New York Stock Exchange has risen a staggering 366% over the past three months as of July 7. Wall Street View Goldman Sachs analyst Fei Fang upgraded the stock from ‘Neutral’ to ‘Buy’ in early June but revised his rating back to ‘Neutral’ by the end of the month and slashed his 12-month price target from $7 to $6.4. Although the analyst still likes the company’s underlying fundamentals, he has grown more concerned about its lofty valuation. Since Fang’s initial upgrade on June 3, NIO shares trade over 100% higher, despite the firm posting an unaudited first-quarter net loss of $243.3 million. Most other analysts have also taken the ‘wait and see’ approach, with the stock receiving 9 ‘Hold’ ratings. Currently, the consensus price target among analysts sits at $39.01, according to Yahoo! Finance – amazingly representing another 239% upside from Monday’s $11.51 close. Story continues Technical Outlook Since bottoming out just above $2 in mid-March, Nio shares have trended steadily higher with price accelerating on heavy volume in the past two trading sessions. Investors should be mindful of chasing recent gains as the relative strength index sits deep in overbought territory, increasing the probability of a retracement. Instead, those who wish to buy should look for an entry point near $5, where the stock finds a confluence of support from a horizontal trendline and the 50-day simple moving average.

Daily Context for Date: 2020-07-07 **Financial & Commodity Data:** - Gold Closing Price: $1804.20 - Crude Oil Closing Price: $40.62 **Bitcoin Market & On-Chain Metrics:** - Market Capitalization: $170,955,144,697 - Hash Rate: 126326671.329112 - Transaction Count: 345975.0 - Unique Addresses: 706177.0 **Social & AI Sentiment:** - Fear & Greed Index: 0.43 **Other Textual Data:** - Daily Tweets (Sample): N/A - Contextual Past News Article: The soft reopening so far appears to be going well and is leading to further easing measures, including the prospect of travel again before the summer is over which is coming as a huge relief to those in the industry that have been ravaged by the crisis. The stock market recovery appeared to stall in May but it seems to have found some momentum once again, with the news of human vaccine trials naturally aiding the move. While the data we’re seeing so far is encouraging, there may be diminishing returns so the longer we go without a vaccine or cure, the worse the data could become. Thankfully, what we’re seeing in both of these cases gives us cause for optimism. Tensions between the US and China are hotting up and Hong Kong is proving to be an interesting battle ground. The US is now believed to be pondering sanctions, as China prepares to vote on a controversial new national security law to be imposed on Hong Kong. As yet, the strained relationship between the US and China hasn’t hampered markets too much but that could quickly change. Oilis slightly paring gains today but continues to make impressive gains more broadly. Naturally, reports of economies successfully easing restrictions is providing a significant boost to oil prices, with the reopening of borders in the coming weeks only further supporting demand and therefore prices. While the reopening will be gradual and people will take time to emerge from the safe shelter of their homes, particularly when it comes to foreign travel, these are hugely positive moves for oil producers as prices close in on $40. It’s now a question of when they’ll turn on the taps again and how much they choose to or even how fast they’ll be able to. Goldis edging lower again today and closing in on$1,700. The yellow metal seemed to lose all momentum not long after eventually breaking through $1,750 resistance. A break back below $1,700 would be troubling for gold, from a psychological perspective, but the $1,660-1,680 region is far more key. A break of this would spell trouble for gold. Bitcoin found some support around $8,500 this morning and has reversed course to test $9,000, around where it is already starting to struggle. It’s not looking great for the cryptocurrency, with $8,000 being the next major level below.

Sometimes it can simply be copy-pasted to create more.\n\nBitcoin is the first of its kind, a provably scarce digital asset. \nIt has solved this problem of preventing "double-spending" digital assets without having "someone in control", as well as solving the issue of "printing". \nThat is what makes it so revolutionary, there has never been a similar breakthrough.\n\nWhat it has now become is a global experiment, on whether we can truly store value in a scarce digital asset. On whether it can fulfill a role similar to gold - with the added benefits of being impossible to counterfeit (scam forks don\'t count), easy to store, easy to send to anywhere in the world, easy to carry across borders, can even be stored in your mind, and cannot be seized, frozen, subpoena\'d, or forced to move in anyway without your permission.\n\nIf Bitcoin, with the first-mover advantage, the biggest network (thus having the highest security, since having the highest hashrate ensures it is the hardest coin to attack) by a HUGE margin, fails to fulfill this purpose, then the global experiment on whether a scarce digital asset can be a store-of-value has failed. It will prove that scarce digital assets are obsoletable technology (like Friendster, MySpace, Betamax, VHS, etc), instead of being unobsoletable money, like gold has been for centuries.\n\nBetting on "cryptocurrency" to succeed without betting on Bitcoin makes no sense. \nIt\'s either Bitcoin succeeds, or crypto will be proven to be unfeasible as a store-of-value, and if the crypto market continues to exist, it will be nothing more than a speculation ~~casino~~ market where digital assets eventually go to die, like 24/7 international penny stocks.\n\nI bet on Bitcoin. \nBitcoin, not blockchain.\n\n"Blockchain technology" is nothing more than a "slow database". \nThe benefit of being "immutable" does not exist when the network is small or centralized, and thus the cost of attacking the coin is viable for a single entity.', 'hmjwws']]], ['u/PTakhar', 'Is it a good time to invest in Bitcoin?', 12, '2020-07-07 03:57', 'https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/hmli0g/is_it_a_good_time_to_invest_in_bitcoin/', "Hey guys!

The SoftBank Group Corp.-backed startup said on Wednesday it\x92s working with a research wing of the People\x92s Bank of China on uses for the virtual legal tender dubbed Digital Currency Electronic Payment, or DCEP. That includes testing the token on its ride-hailing platform, people familiar with the matter said. Specifics like when the feature will officially roll out aren\x92t clear yet, they said, asking not to be identified because the plan is private. Shares in Chinese financial software and information security companies including Feitian Technologies Co. and Julong Co. rose by their 10% daily limits on the news. Representatives from the PBOC had no comment when contacted. China\x92s government began a pilot program for its digital currency, which lives on a mobile wallet application and offers Beijing greater control of the country\x92s financial system, a few months ago. The initial testing was limited to four cities, with local media reporting that some of the money was distributed via transport subsidies to residents in Suzhou. However, implementation remains a question. China\x92s $27 trillion payments industry is already dominated by twin internet giants Alibaba Group Holding Ltd. and Tencent Holdings Ltd. Adoption by Didi, which connects half a billion Chinese commuters, would drive acceptance of China\x92s digital coin and widen Beijing\x92s global lead in government-sanctioned virtual tokens. Didi currently employs payment tools from Tencent and Alibaba-backed Ant Group, so it would appear to be a good candidate for DCEP. Beyond its core ride-sharing business, Didi is luring grocers and merchants onto its platform -- and they could also become users of the national digital tokens.

Announced on Monday, Thai Digital Energy Development (TDED) – a public-private joint venture – has inked a deal with blockchain energy startup Power Ledger to develop a blockchain-based digital energy business. The deal, also in collaboration with energy suppliers in Thailand, seeks to develop solutions for peer-to-peer energy trading and environmental commodity trading, Australia-based Power Ledger said in a press release. Related:Colombia, Deloitte, ConsenSys Sign On to WEF’s ‘Blockchain Bill of Rights’ Ultimately, the partners aim to assist Thailand’s drive to hit a 25% renewable energy target by 2037 as the nation transitions away from fossil fuels. “Blockchain-enabled transactive energy solutions including peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading, virtual power plants as well as renewable energy certificates and carbon credits trading will be the key to establishing economically viable renewable energy markets,” said Power Ledger’s co-founder and executive chairman, Jemma Green. “Our partnership with TDED will allow us to accelerate our efforts to promote distributed digital energy markets in Thailand,” Green added.

BCPG is a Bangkok-based firm dealing in solar, wind and geothermal power, with operations in Thailand, Japan, the Philippines and Indonesia. Together with a Thai electrical manufacturer under the Provincial Electricity Authority, it runs the TDED venture. One of the first projects to come out of the Power Ledger collaboration will focus on energy and carbon management at the 12-megawatt “smart campus” at Chiang Mai University in Thailand’s north.

As of yesterday, the number of confirmed cases in the US exceeded 3 million. On Tuesday, the WHO cautioned there could be an increase in the fatality rate as there has been a rise in infections, but the death rate so far has lagged. US-China tensions were doing the rounds yesterday. The decision by the Chinese government to introduce the national security law in regards to Hong Kong has sparked criticism from many countries around the world as it chips away at the principal of ‘one country two systems’. Yesterday there was speculation the US government would hit back at Beijing by potentially undermining the Hong Kong Dollar (HKD) peg. It wasn’t that long ago that President Trump reiterated that the US-China trade deal was intact, so going after the HKD might be a useful tactic. The US leader might be hesitant about taking a very tough stance against the Beijing administration given that he’s not doing well in the polls and the Presidential election is in November. The mini-budget from Rishi Sunak, the UK’s Chancellor of the Exchequer, made big political headlines yesterday, but it didn’t have a significant impact on the markets. Mr Sunak revealed £30 billion worth of schemes that are aimed at providing assistance to the UK economy. The furlough scheme will come to an end in October and £9 billion will be allocated to job retention. There will be a temporary cut to VAT for the tourism and hospitality sector. In addition to that, there have been incentives offered for dining out too – the combined stimulus is worth £4.5 billion. Providing help to the battered hospitality sector is a sensible move, but people in the UK might be cautious about socialising given what has happened in places like Melbourne and the US in relation to a rise in new cases. As expected, the stamp duty threshold was upped to £500,000 from £125,000. One could argue that this tactic might not be as fruitful as the government are hoping as some people are likely to be cautious about purchasing a property on account of the huge economic uncertainty. Story continues The health crisis in the US remained in focus. Oklahoma, California and Tennessee all posted a record daily rise in the number of new cases. States like Florida and Arizona continue to see higher case numbers too. Despite the pandemic, US equity benchmarks closed higher as the tech sector continued its bullish run. Amazon , Apple and Netflix all set new record highs. Raphael Bostic, the head of the Federal Reserve of Atlanta, said that some of the fiscal support programmes might need to be extended. Overnight, China posted its CPI data for June and the level was 2.5%, while economists were expecting 2.5%. Keep in mind the May reading was 2.4%. The PPI metric was -3%, and the consensus estimate was -3.2%, while the previous update was -3.7%. The improvement in the PPI rate might bring about higher CPI in the months ahead. Stocks in Asia are up on the session, and European markets are being called higher too. The US dollar came under pressure yesterday. It was a quiet day in terms of economic data so the move wasn’t influenced by economic indicators. Lately the greenback has been a popular safe haven for traders, it was showing losses during the day when European indices were in the red, and when US stocks were flickering between positive and negative territory. Gold was given a hand by the slide in the US dollar. The metal topped $1,800, and it was the first time since September 2011 that it traded above that mark. The commodity is still popular with certain traders as there are concerns that a second wave of Covid-19 could be on the cards. The metal’s positive move is being partly fuelled by the belief that central banks will maintain very loose monetary policy. Some people are afraid an inflation rise is in the pipeline, so that is influencing gold too. At 7am (UK time) Germany will post its trade data for May, and the imports and exports are tipped to be 12% and 13.8% respectively. The US initial jobless claims is anticipated to fall from 1.42 million to 1.37 million. The metric has fallen for the past 13 weeks in a row. The continuing claims reading is tipped to drop from 19.29 million to 18.95 million. Keep in mind that last week’s reading actually ticked up. The reports will be posted at 1.30pm (UK time). A eurogroup video conference meeting will be held today and traders will be listening out for any potential progress being made in relation to the region’s recovery fund. EUR/USD – since early May it has been in an uptrend, but it has been trading sideways recently. If it holds above the 1.1168 zone, it could target 1.1495. A break below the 1.1168 area might pave the way for 1.1042, the 200 day moving average, to be targeted. GBP/USD – since late June it has been in an uptrend, and should the positive move continue, it might target 1.2687, the 200-day moving average. A move through that level should put 1.2812 on the radar. A drop below 1.2251, might bring 1.2076 into play. EUR/GBP – Tuesday’s daily candle has the potential to be a bearish reversal, and if it moves lower it might find support at 0.8935, the 50-day moving average. A retaking of 0.9067 could see it target 0.9239. USD/JPY – has been drifting lower for the last month and support could come into play at 106.00. A rebound might run into resistance at 108.37, the 200-day moving average. FTSE 100 is expected to open 34 points higher at 6,190 DAX 30 is expected to open 153 points higher at 12,647 CAC 40 is expected to open 46 points higher at 5,027 For a look at all of today’s economic events, check out our economic calendar .

Micree Zhan Ketuan, the Bitmain co-founder who was ousted in a coup by his rival Wu Jihan last October, sent out a letter addressed to Bitmain employees via his WeChat feed on Thursday, saying he had returned to the company’s Beijing office starting from June 3. He further called for staffers at Bitmain to return to the office to join him and said he will “lead the company to complete an initial public offering as soon as possible and push Bitmain’s market capitalization to over $50 billion in the next three to five years.” Due to the impact of the coronavirus outbreak, most of Bitmain’s Beijing staff have been working from home since earlier this year. A video circulating online and verified by Chinese crypto media source BlockBeats shows that Zhan led a group of private guards and forcefully entered Bitmain’s office in Beijing on Wednesday. According to one Bitmain employee, who spoke to CoinDesk under the condition of anonymity, Zhan was also handing out cash bonuses worth 10,000 yuan ($1,500) to those returning yesterday and 5,000 yuan ($700) for those that turned up today. The news marks the latest twist in Bitmain’s bitter internal fight which has cast doubts among investors and customers over the management of the world’s largest bitcoin miner manufacturer. Recently the dispute even descended into physical confrontation between the management factions as Zhan regained his official status as a legal representative of the Beijing Bitmain Technology Limited, the main operating entity of Bitmain. Twin seals Related: Bitmain’s Feuding Co-Founders Are Fracturing the Firm and Staff Are Caught in the Middle Going by Zhan’s letter on Thursday, it also looks like there’s been a “hard fork” of the company’s official seal, of which there are now appears to be two. Story continues Early last month, as Zhan recovered his status as legal representative of Beijing Bitmain, he was entitled to receive a new business license for the company issued by a Beijing government agency that oversees corporate registrations. However, at the time, Zhan was not in possession of the official seal of Beijing Bitmain. In China, a company’s official seal is as important as the role of the legal representative in terms of signing a company’s decision into effect. Forging an official seal is an offense under China’s criminal laws. Since the tussle at the government office, Bitmain has been discussing with staff the transferring of their employment contracts from Beijing Bitmain to another parallel subsidiary, Beijing Guiyuan Dalu, according to one person familiar with the plan. Like Beijing Bitmain, the new entity is wholly owned by Bitmain Technologies Hong Kong and was officially registered on May 26. But the legal representative of Beijing Guiyuan Dalu is not Zhan. On May 27, it was reported by Chinese crypto media that Zhan had issued a document on May 25 in an effort to fire Liu Luyao from his role as Bitmain’s CFO, who was also involved in the May confrontation. The document, signed by Zhan, did not bear the official seal of Bitmain. On the same day, Beijing Bitmain issued a statement with the official seal via its WeChat account, saying Zhan had no authority to act as a legal representative to give notices or directions to its staff. The firm further said it was in possession of the effective official seal with a serial number of 1101070056574 and no employees should take Zhan’s directions or otherwise it will take legal actions. However, Zhan’s June 4 letter bears a different official seal for Beijing Bitmain with a serial number of 1101081651178. Zhan also posted a statement on June 3 saying the previous seal – ending in 6574 – had been voided. In the latest chapter of the saga, Bitmain issued a statement via its official WeChat account on Wednesday accusing Zhan of forging an official seal of the company and said it has hired lawyers to take legal action against him. Zhan already has ongoing legal cases against Bitmain regarding his voting power in the company in the Cayman Islands, where Bitmain’s ultimate controlling holding entity resides.

However, the Apple store only lists health apps published by government entities or nonprofits. This means the small nation’s startup community has limited access to mobile device users. (Apple did not respond to requests for comment by press time.) Related:Why Bitcoin Bulls Are Betting on Explosive Growth in India According to a report by the analytics and accelerator company AppWorks, there are now roughly 112 blockchain startups in Taiwan, including the supply chain management startup BSOS, which received an investment from Taiwan’s National Development Fund earlier this year. Read more:Austrian Government Funds Development of Blockchain-Based COVID-19 App “What are the next growth opportunities for blockchain? Everyone has different interpretations and expectations,” the AppWorksreportsaid. “However, currently, conversations are mostly centered around the pandemic, with criticisms mainly targeted at the limitations and failures of centralization.” Moss-Pultz said his firm experienced those limitations first-hand. The mainstream app stores would only accept the resulting app, called Autonomy, if the Taiwanese government itself released the mobile app. Related:Swiss Government Makes Moves to Encourage Crypto Businesses “People all around the world are getting their apps blocked,” Moss-Pultz said. “We spent most of June trying to figure out what type of strategy we could have. … Most likely we’re just going to [release Autonomy] as a web thing.” Apple and Googleare hardly the only tech giantsdefining the publicpandemic narratives. Amazon, for example, forced bitcoin advocateKnut Svanholmto remove a brief mention of the coronavirus from his self-published book in order to distribute it through Kindle in April. As the Svanholm incident illustrated, moderating health tools during a pandemic without resulting in blunt-force censorship is a difficult task to automate. Colin Steil, co-founder of the Taiwanese blockchain startup Cartesi, said tech companies “always have to proceed with caution” to avoid their software being “used to cause unrest or disrupt in political issues.” Internet giants can be accused of censorship regardless of whether they moderate content. Companies likeFacebookandTwitterare both heavily criticized for rampantmisinformationcampaigns on their platforms, although they tookradically differentapproaches to moderation. (Facebook has since recanted and said it willchange its policies, due to public pressure.) Critics seem to consider the opposite of censorship to be, not digital anarchy, but consistently high-quality moderation. Read more:Social Media Bans ‘Highlight the Profound Censorship on Web 2.0’ Steil said that, compared to stringent but relatively healthy Taiwan, American leaders were “stalled for many reasons” in reacting to the pandemic and “reliant on tech companies” to offer solutions. “Taiwan took the pandemic very seriously due to its prior experience with viruses, and reacted in a method that used whatever tools and tech they had available,” Steil said, highlighting the contrast in public policies. Blockchain Commons founder Christopher Allen, whocollaboratedwith Bitmark at the May hackathon and is an advocate fordecentralized identity tech, said “good actors” at Silicon Valley’s tech giants are often “stymied” by company objectives. So far, American tech companies dominate public services, sometimes even running servers for government agencies, he said, in ways other private companies cannot compete with. “Their strategies have been to vertically integrate and limit other people,” Allen said of companies like Google, Facebook and Apple. “I don’t think their intent is malicious in any fashion, but the nature of keeping competition out has a potential harm.” • How Apple’s COVID Policy Limited a Public Health App in Taiwan • How Apple’s COVID Policy Limited a Public Health App in Taiwan... - Reddit Posts (Sample): no_data...

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin, BTC to USD, fell by 0.63% on Saturday. Reversing a 0.60% gain from Friday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,246.3. It was a bearish start to the day for Bitcoin. Bitcoin fell from an early morning intraday high $9,311.8 to a late morning intraday low $9,200.1 before finding support. Steering clear of the first major support level at $9,193.6, Bitcoin moved back to a late high $9,263.0 before easing back. The near-term bullish trend remained intact in spite of the early July pullback to sub-$9,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a mixed day on Saturday. Cardano’s ADA (+5.67%), Tezos (+5.61%), and Tron’s TRX (+5.11%) led the way. Binance Coin (+1.85%), Litecoin (+0.92%) Monero’s XMR (+2.10%), Ripple’s XRP (+0.86%), and Stellar’s Lumen (+1.27%) also found support. It was a bearish day for the rest of the majors, however. Ethereum led the way down, with a loss of 0.87%. Bitcoin Cash ABC (-0.48%), Bitcoin Cash SV (-0.21%), and EOS (-0.10%) saw relatively modest losses on the day. In the current week, the crypto total market cap rose from a Monday low $254.55bn to a Wednesday high $274.58bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $267.71bn. Bitcoin’s dominance fell from a Monday high 65.58% to a Thursday low 63.55%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 63.79%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was up by 0.44% to $9,287.2. A bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin rise from an early morning low $9,244.3 to a high $9,299.7. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was a mixed start to the day. At the time of writing, Cardano’s ADA was down by 0.36% to buck the trend early on. It was a bullish start for the rest of the majors, with Bitcoin Cash SV up by 3.27% to lead the way. Story continues For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to avoid a fall back through the $9,253 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $9,305.37. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break back through to $9,300 levels. Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin should break through the second major resistance level at $9,364.43 before any pullback. Failure to avoid a fall back through the $9,253 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $9,193.67 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should avoid sub-$9,100 levels. The second major resistance level at $9,141.03 should limit any downside.

Bitcoin is understood as “money crypto,” while Ethereum is labeled “tech crypto.” Bitcoin is sound money that will make all other monies obsolete . Ethereum, on the other hand, is seen as better tech that will update Wall Street’s settlement layer . The conflict is incomprehensible to outsiders, and each community\xa0says the other has not understood the crypto world’s actual goal and ethos. You could imagine this conflict going on for years, a sort of “Game of Thrones” for blockchain. But there’s another, more hopeful, way of imagining the future. Conceivably, the future will be one where Bitcoin and Ethereum gain greater relevance alongside each other (as Michael Casey argued in his recent column ). Both “money crypto” and “tech crypto” will play their roles. It might just not be in the pure sense envisioned by either of the two maximalist groups. Dollar shackles Related: Version Control Can Help the Media Win Back Reader Trust We are currently under a crushing dollar yoke. Back in the 19th century, many parts of the world had free banking . Banks were granted unrestricted competitive issuance of currency and deposit money on a convertible basis. But gradually the paradigm of free banking faded away and state-orchestrated fiat currency took hold. See also: In Race for 2030 Currency Supremacy, the Dollar Is Its Own Worst Enemy After World War II, much of the world started trading in dollars, making it into a reserve currency . To this day, U.S. Treasurys provide a safe haven in times of financial turmoil, tightening the dollar’s grip on global finance . Greater dependence on the dollar means greater dependence on the Federal Reserve. As a national bank, the Fed puts national interests first. These oftentimes contradict with other countries’ concerns, leaving them in a tight spot. Story continues Related: Money Reimagined: COVID-19's Crash Course in Exponential Math As the world has been dollarizing, a paradox has emerged: Although the U.S. central bank is often criticized for inflating its currency, global markets deem the available amount of dollar liquidity to be insufficient. This lack of liquidity has caused financial actors all around the world to start helping themselves. Eurodollars needed The world, especially emerging market economies, really needs dollars. The emergence of the eurodollar system in the 1960s was a direct consequence of the Fed not being able to supply the world’s relentless need for extra dollars. Eurodollars are U.S. dollar accounting entries that are used to settle cash flows between numerous players outside the banking system supervised by the Fed. As such, eurodollars are not subject to U.S. banking regulations. As the economist Milton Friedman pointed out in 1969, eurodollars are created by the bookkeeper’s pen. Corporations, banks and other international actors are dependent on dealer markets providing enough eurodollar funding to uphold market liquidity and service debt. These private dealers are acting primarily through the shadow banking system. Because the dollar has ascended to become the world’s number one currency with the deepest and most liquid capital market, people all around the globe have been going into dollar debt.

Market volatility has reached record levels, leading to a surge in trading volume and opportunities for value investors. Industries such as airlines, cruise lines, and rental cars have taken a massive hit as air travel remains down 90% and lockdown orders prevent travel. Stocks such as Norweigan Cruise Lines (NYSE: NCLH ), Spirit Airlines (NYSE: SAVE ), and Carnival Corporation (NYSE: CCL ) have all experienced recent upward swings as coronavirus concerns are easing as more companies, such as Moderna, Inc. ( NASDAQ: MRNA ), come closer to developing a vaccine. For the cryptocurrency industry, these events have supported the old theory that cryptocurrencies will become the de-facto currency as the dollar decouples, inflation increases, and people become more concerned with financial privacy. In recent months, the cryptocurrency industry has seen positive developments with higher retail trading activity and institutional interest increasing. For example, Grayscale Investments has been very aggressive in accumulating Bitcoin, at the rate of 150% of all new Bitcoin mined since May 11. Ironic, given the fact that Goldman Sachs (NYSE: GS) announced on a recent investor call that cryptocurrencies are not an asset class. What is clear is that some institutional investors are more optimistic about the role of cryptocurrencies in the global economy. For the cryptocurrency executives working tirelessly to educate investors and the public about the benefits of crypto, criticism is something that they have become accustomed to. As with any emerging technology, “new” can often be scary and intimidating until more solid foundations are set. To learn more about where the economy is headed, we reached out to a handful of cryptocurrency executives that have recently been in the news. Crypto Executive Predictions are Vastly Optimistic 1. J.D. Salbego, the CEO of Singapore-based exchange BitTok, has experienced the ups and downs of the crypto industry since 2017. In the midst of mass economic and socio-economic turmoil, he sees this as an opportunity for crypto to shine: Story continues “What is interesting and what we might see is with Beijing taking over Hong Kong, there could be an increase in Bitcoin’s price and usage. We've seen in the past when there is political turmoil and instability in a country’s economic future, like with Venezuela, the public has had increased Bitcoin and crypto usage because of the lack of faith in their own central banks and national currency. What we are seeing again is a completely broken banking and financial system globally. With blockchain and crypto, we will hopefully see a higher rate of usage and adoption within banking, forcing centralized institutions to become more transparent.” 2. Patrick Collet, Founder and CEO of MOOVIN, a blockchain protocol that democratizes and tokenizes successfully access to data, is optimistic that the US and global economy will not see a recession based on current signs: The present economy is facing uncertainty as confidence towards the Federal Reserve is getting thinner. I don’t believe we will see a crash per say because signs aren’t pointing at a recession just yet. Even though the US annual GDP is looking to come 40% short, there is a strong boom in the technology and e-commerce platform sector. I believe we will see a lot of market volatility in the coming months and even though DEFI and Fintech are becoming more commonplace, adoption for blockchain tech is clearly not a conquered territory. However, these sectors will eventually be mainstream. 3. For Quincy Dagelet, CEO of Boostchain, a company that is disrupting advertising with blockchain technology, mainstream adoption could be closer than we expect: “The world we are living in with COVID-19 is really unfortunate but it opened people’s eyes and led to more digitalization. Also, people tend to have less faith in banks, the monetary system and politics. This creates the perfect gateway towards more crypto adoption.” 4. Stefan Hostettler, Co-founder and CEO of Tycoon69 International, a blockchain firm based in the UAE, agrees that we should see massive disruption in the near future: “Economically, I believe that we will see stagnant and outdated industries experience a massive wave of innovation and disruption over the next few years. This happened during the last crisis and was the leading factor that drove Satoshi Nakamoto to create Bitcoin following the 2007 crash. We are dedicating our time to building out an ecosystem to modernize billion-dollar industries, such as the gift card industry.” 5. Gabriella Davis, CEO of Centric, the world's first dual-cryptocurrency payment network, agrees with the legacy cryptocurrency community that sees these events as a perfect storm that will propel cryptocurrencies: “More than ever in modern economic history we are witnessing the end of an era. Fiat currency and central banking methodology are not capable of managing highly complex marketplaces. It is time to usher in new economic and monetary innovation, the launch of Bitcoin in the wake of 2009 was the start of a wave of innovation. Moving forward, in order to drive full global adoption a vision of currencies utilizing trust-less, censorship resistant ecosystems, that help offer a reliable store of value and an incentive to join the network while simultaneously limiting industry volatility will look to be implemented.” Conclusion One thing is certain, the world will be watching as the rest of 2020 plays out and increasingly more curious to learn more about emerging technology that can help them better control risk and their finances. When it comes to transparency, security, and access, blockchain technology provides benefits never before seen.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin Bitcoin rose by 2.50% in the week ending 12 th July. Reversing a 1.46% loss from the previous week, Bitcoin ended the week at $9,315.8. It was a bullish start to the week. Bitcoin rose from a Monday intraweek low $9,075.8 to a Wednesday intraweek high $9,497.2. Bitcoin broke through the first major resistance level at $9,282 to come up against the second major resistance level at $9,480.0. Hitting reverse mid-week, Bitcoin fell back through the major resistance levels to $9,133 levels before finding support. In spite of a choppy end to the week, Bitcoin managed to recover to $9,300 levels on Sunday to close out the week in the green. 4-days in the green that included a 3.05% rally on Monday delivered the upside for the week. For the week ahead Bitcoin would need to avoid a fall back through $9,296 pivot to bring the first major resistance level at $9,517 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed for Bitcoin to break out from last week\x92s high $9,497.2. Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and last week\x92s high $9,497.2 would likely cap any upside. In the event of a breakout, Bitcoin could take a run at $9,700 levels before any pullback. The second major resistance level at $9,718 would likely cap any upside, however. Failure to avoid a fall through the $9,296 pivot would bring support levels into play. A pullback through to sub-$9,200 levels would bring the first major support level at $9,095 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of sub-$8,900 levels. The 23.6% FIB of $8,900 should limit any downside in the week. At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.20% to $9,297.6. A mixed start to the week saw Bitcoin rise to an early Monday high $9,330.0 before falling to a low $9,286.7. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested at the start of the week. Cardano\x92s ADA Cardano\x92s ADA rallied by 29.24% in the week ending 12 th July. Following on from a 22.23% breakout from the previous week, Cardano\x92s ADA ended the week at $0.12694. Story continues It was another particularly bullish week for Cardano\x92s ADA. Cardano\x92s ADA rallied from a Monday intraweek low $0.095226 to a Wednesday intraweek high $0.14087. Steering clear of the major support levels, Cardano\x92s ADA broke through the major resistance levels. More significantly, Cardano\x92s ADA broke through the 23.6% FIB of $0.1125 to hit $0.14 levels for the 1 st time since August 2018. A 2 nd half of the week pullback saw Cardano\x92s ADA fall through the third major resistance level at $0.13955 and second major resistance level at $0.11644. Finding support at the first major resistance level at $0.10732, Cardano\x92s ADA bounced back to $0.1280 levels before easing back. 5 days in the green, that included an 11.88% surge on Tuesday and a 10.45% rally on Wednesday delivered the upside for the week. It was a 4 th consecutive weekly gain for Cardano\x92s ADA. For the week ahead Cardano\x92s ADA would need to avoid a fall through the $0.1210 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $0.1468. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Cardano\x92s ADA to breakout from last week\x92s high $0.14087. Barring another extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and last week\x92s high would likely cap any upside. In the event of another breakout, the second major resistance level at $0.1667 and 38.2% FIB of $0.1652 could come into play. Failure to avoid a fall through the $0.1210 pivot could see Cardano\x92s ADA cough up gains from last week. A pullback through the 23.6% FIB of $0.1125 would bring the first major support level at $0.10116 into play. Barring an extended broader-market sell-off, however, Cardano\x92s ADA should steer well clear of sub-$0.090 levels. The second major support level sits at $0.07537. At the time of writing, Cardano\x92s ADA was up by 2.72% to $0.13039. A bullish start to the week saw Cardano\x92s ADA rise from an early Monday low $0.12609 to a high $0.13295. Cardano\x92s ADA left the major support and resistance levels untested at the start of the week.

The settlement, which was reached on June 11 and effectively ends a six-month court fight with the agency, also indicates the messaging platform will be responsible for a $1.22 billion disgorgement that is offset by $1.19 billion paid as “termination amounts” in investors’ purchase agreements and the amounts that some investors loaned to Telegram earlier this year. Telegram has 30 days to pay the SEC penalty and up to four years to pay back investors under the settlement. Additionally, Telegram should notify the SEC if the company wants to issue “‘cryptocurrencies,’ ‘digital coins,’ ‘digital tokens,’ or any similar digital asset issued or transferred using distributed ledger technology” at any point over the next three years. The notification – which is not a request for an approval – should come 45 days prior to the planned issuance, the settlement reads. Related:Sovrin Foundation Sheds All Paid Staff in Tale of a Token Issuance Gone Wrong The settlement apparently takes into consideration Telegram’s commitment toterminate TON’s developmentandpay back investors. Previously, Telegramofferedits non-U.S. investors an opportunity to loan their money to the company for one year, with a pledge to pay back 110% of the amount invested next April. This was as an alternative to getting back 72% of the investment this May – the amount previously agreed upon by the investors. Not everyone was happy with the deal, with some investors saying theyconsidered suing Telegram. The SECsuedTelegram in October 2019 after the company raised $1.7 billion to fund the development of its TON blockchain project. A federal court sided with the SEC when the agency asked to block Telegram from issuing any tokens as it had planned to do earlier this year.While Telegram appealedinitially, it laterhalted this effort. The companyannouncedit would be ceasing work on TON on May 27, though itpublished some codefor the project. Related:Kleiman Bitcoin Case Heads to Trial as Motion for Sanctions Against Craig Wright Is Denied After adding “some almost-finished components of TON Storage, TON Payments and CPS Fift from testing branches into the main branch,” “the original TON development team is discontinuing its active involvement with the TON project,” the update said. While Telegram ostensibly no longer plans to update its code for TON, it did write that “some minor bug fixes and Github issue answers may occasionally appear if any of the members of the original team have the spare time and inclination to contribute to the community’s efforts.” Telegram managed to release most of the TON code, includingblockchain nodes, a technical paper onTON’s consensus protocoland anative crypto wallet. While Telegram itself claimed it would no longer launch TON, another entity, TON Labs,launchedits own version of the network with a group of professional validators. The SEC declined to comment on the proposed settlement, but saidin a letter to the courtthat the proposed settlement “is fair and reasonable and in the public interest.” In a statement shared with CoinDesk and later published to Telegram founder Pavel Durov’s Telegram channel, the company said the settlement “reconfirms our commitment to repay the remaining funds to purchasers.” “Since we saw limited value in pursuing the court case further, we welcomed the opportunity to resolve it without admitting or denying our liability,” the statement said, concluding that he hoped the U.S. becomes friendlier to blockchain in the future.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / July 13, 2020 / Bitbase Exchange, a new crypto exchange represented by FCoin, launched a "trading-as-a-mining" trading system in 2018, thereby challenging the three established exchanges. With this, a war between the emerging crypto exchanges broke out. In 2019, another batch of fresh troops characterized by "model play" and represented by Matcha and BIKI came into prominence. At that time, the cryptocurrency exchange world entered a new phase of competition, which was marked by "participation in the purchase of new shares with funds". The competition became very fierce, and the second round of war between the emerging crypto exchanges started off. In 2020, Bitcoin market crashes have become very rare, as the market undercurrent is surging, and perhaps only the exchanges can set the trend again. For example, the contract plate competition has been very fierce since the beginning of 2020, which focuses on security and compliance, and product-based innovation has become the point of strength. "It\'s been a long time since the era of attracting users with fly-heads and small profits, as those methods can\'t cultivate loyalty at all. Now, the digital currency circle is more product-oriented." cryptocurrency analyst John told the press. Bitbase, a rising star in many of the emerging markets, is trying to jump-start the exchange industry\'s third breakout war with product-oriented services and technological strength. The Bitbase founding team consists of the core management people of Huobi and OKEX exchange. The founder members have rich experience, resources and are conversant with advanced technology. The products use distributed server cluster, distributed storage, cold wallet, private key off-line hot wallet and other advanced technology for creating digital assets global circulation to provide customers with safe, stable and credible digital assets trading services through the web terminal, mobile phone terminal, PC terminal and other terminals. Story continues At present, the total number of registered users globally has crossed 500,000. Bitbase Exchange opened its offices in Eastern Europe, Malaysia, Vietnam, Cambodia and Southeast Asia. With a sound capital OTC access and product experience, and supported by a strong technical team, Bitbase Exchange is equipped with a sound trading security mechanism and a strong underlying structure. "I joined into the digital currency circle in two years ago; I can say that Bitbase Exchange is the most stable one," one investor, Li Mu (pseudonym), stated. Bitbase\'s core business involves currency transactions, contract transactions, asset wallets and OTC services, forming a complete product line, and will continue to innovate in line with user needs to provide richer and more practical product features. At the same time, based on the distributed digital assets trading platform of community consensus autonomy, Bitbase combines the high performance of the centralized exchange and the high reliability of the decentralized public chain perfectly to have realized the one-stop choice of digital assets security storage, new project crowdfunding, digital assets issuance, and the solution of digital assets users. According to Bitbase, the platform also attaches particular importance to security and now has achieved a breakthrough in security innovation, based on Bitbase technology and multi-layer protection, the platform keeps hundreds of billions of assets for users and has never had a technical safety accident so far. The advanced technologies, such as GSLB, distributed server cluster, distributed storage, high-speed memory trading engine with multi-computers, cold wallet, and off-line hot wallet with private key, are employed to guarantee the transaction to be stable. In terms of asset settlement and risk control, Bitbase aims to achieve 99.999% high availability of liquidation core through financial-level micro-service architecture Spring Cloud and financial-level distributed database HDFS, and to enhance the five capabilities of liquidation core, such as fault emergency, data support, risk measurement, gray level drilling and risk identification through attack and defense drilling, thus to realize the real-time liquidation of 10 billion digital assets and ensure the user\'s high-quality experience. When the premise exchange is busy in the license, it has become the "stepping stone" for cryptocurrency exchange into the mainstream society, manifesting legitimacy and comprehensive strength of the exchange. However, its gold content varies heavily since different countries have different definition standard and review mechanism on the license. In general, the EU MTR license is the industry\'s highly recognized license, and Bitbase has been issued with the EU MTR license, a dual license of digital currency + wallet. For blockchain projects, this license service covers a wide range of areas and possesses a high degree of authority. In summary, the above-mentioned practices and efforts are the initial reflection of Bitbase, the team has been adhering to the principle of open and common development to build a mature low-level technology platform by relying on a professional blockchain development team, to fully incubate application projects, so as to help them get implemented and gradually complete the exchange\'s internal ecological construction. As stated officially, in the future, Bitbase will continue to innovate and optimize its products and services, serve the needs of users, and provide the safest, most stable and most efficient digital financial transaction service platform for users around the world. It is believed that Bitbase will be the leader of the exchange\'s third breakout war.

Bitbase Exchange opened its offices in Eastern Europe, Malaysia, Vietnam, Cambodia and Southeast Asia.

There was very little pomp, but that owed more to the circumstance, as Conan O’Brien gave the first remote commencement address in Harvard ’s long history to the Class of 2020. Delivered from a podium set up in his backyard, O’Brien used the unusual setting to his advantage, opening his speech with a montage of archival footage of a standing ovation from cheering crowds, a Blue Angels flyover, blasting cannons, and a water-squirting tugboat salute. More from Deadline 'Conan' To Air New Shows Beginning March 30 Late-Night Hosts Remember "Terrific Guest" Kobe Bryant Conan O'Brien Pays Tribute To NBC Late-Night Executive Rick Ludwin O’Brien, himself a Harvard grad and two-time editor of The Lampoon, said graduates would receive their diplomas in a plain envelope marked “Cornell Diploma” as a way to foil package thieves. “As you sit here today, or stand, or microwave a burrito, or ride a Peloton, or recline uncomfortably in your childhood bed, or mine Bitcoin, or Google ‘Who is Conan O’Brien?,’ you are witnessing many firsts in today’s ceremony,” O’Brien said, mentioning it was the first time the address had been delivered in the spot where his dog urinated just seven minutes before. O’Brien thanked Harvard for his honorary degree in “bosonic string theory and condensed-matter physics” (he was actually a history major) and saluted the IT department for their efforts (“Really nice compression, guys. Beautiful, very little buffering.”) To make everyone feel at home (even though they were actually at home), O’Brien said that authorities were doing their best to make up for the strangeness. “Trust me, we are taking steps to make today’s Commencement feel as authentic as possible,” he said. “In fact, right now, Harvard is charging each of you $50 for parking in Cambridge.” There was a slightly serious moment as well. O’Brien noted that seniors had “been handed more than your share. You’ve only known a world beset by terrorist hate. You’ve grown up with mass shootings and school lockdowns. Horror was completely absent from my childhood. You have now witnessed two economic meltdowns of stunning proportions. You are remarkable examples to my children of how to be smart, brave, and yes, resilient in a scary world.” Story continues Best of Deadline Coronavirus: U.S. Death Toll Passes Grim 100,000 Milestone As Global Cases Top 5.5 Million - Update Coronavirus: Movies That Have Halted Or Delayed Production Amid Outbreak Hong Kong Filmart Postponed Due To Coronavirus Fears; Event Moves Two Weeks Before Toronto Sign up for Deadline's Newsletter .

Randall Joseph Smail, 23, admitted in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of West Virginia that he used a phony account statement from the Kraken cryptocurrency exchange to defraud the Pendleton Community Bank of a $552,533 loan, according to plea documents . Smail told the bank he could only withdraw his $640,000 bitcoin in $200,000 increments “due to tax issues,” according to Jan. 27 court filings. Both statements were false, as Smail did not have any bitcoin with Kraken. Smail ultimately received $1,800 of the bank loan. He could face a maximum of 30 years in prison and a $1,000,000 fine for committing bank fraud. There were discrepancies in the amount of bitcoin the government said Smail lied about having. The Department of Justice’s Tuesday press release and the case’s first court filings gave a value of $640,000,000. However, Smail’s lawyer, Stanton Levenson, said the real figure was $640,000. The U.S Attorney’s Office did not respond to a CoinDesk request for comment. “Very few in the traditional banking system comprehend cryptocurrency,” a Kraken spokesperson told CoinDesk. “As an industry, this is the reason we go to great lengths to educate clients and traditional banking partners about crypto.” UPDATE (July 9, 15:17 UTC): This article has been updated to include comment from Kraken.

My gaming background is overwhelmingly WoW, RTS, and single player puzzle/questing games (Skyrim, Zelda). My buddies got me into FPS games with COD almost ten years ago, but it was never my thing. My reflexes are inconsistent, my eyes have trouble with making sense of constant movement and noticing tiny pixel details instantly, and I\'m generally slowing down a little over time...but fucking Tarkov. TARKOV!\n\nThis is the first FPS that ever made sense to me. It\'s not purely reflexes, run and gun, spawn die, K/D circle jerking. It\'s okay to literally just hide until enough information is gathered to counter attack. It\'s okay to hide in a bush for 20 minutes while Omega Chad 9000 runs around trying to find you after massacring 3/4 of the team, wait for him to loot, then pop the squash. It\'s okay to retreat and wait for a better fight. Every other FPS game I\'ve played has basically punished intelligent fight tactics and patience, which is totally against how I think and mentally approach that sort of situation.\n\nAfter trying all sorts of styles, I finally found what works for me - I aim for a perfect balance of Rat/Chad. I will NEVER take a fight if I can avoid it, but if the firing starts, I instantly suppressive fire and don\'t worry if I live or die. This has saved my ass countless times since I started doing it. I used to try to turn and run, then die with my back turned most of the time. Most people will panic if their ambush target suddenly unloads a hailstorm of BT ammo at them, and at that point they usually are on the back foot, which is when Chad time happens. Dump grenades, flank with cover, score the kill. If I have the advantage, I hold my fire until it\'s a clean shot, especially against squads. I\'ve been able to wipe duos, trios, and even quads by picking them off one by one instead of trying to be a hero with my spray.

Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['BERLIN, GERMANY / ACCESSWIRE / July 15, 2020 / dGen released their latest report, "Decentralised Finance: Usecases and Risks for Mass Adoption" This report analyses the current landscape of Decentralised Finance (DeFi), including an in-depth look into the risks and future evolution of the space. A number of notable leaders in DeFi projects, such as Aave, Synthetix, Consensys, Nexus Mutual, have weighed in on both the current state of DeFi and the changes they expect to see in the next 5-10 years. These quotes can be found below. There is also a strong focus on what the impact will be in Europe and for European citizens. Our top predictions for 2030 are: Stablecoins will become a critical component of international payments in Europe and beyond. Major audit firms, such as Deloitte and KPMG, will be a crucial part of the DeFi ecosystem. Effective insurance will make DeFi a trillion dollar industry. Traditional financial institutions in Europe will offer their first DeFi-enabled savings and pension accounts. DeFi will provide income for thousands of gamers, streamers, and influencers. There will be more pain as we grow. Bitcoin was initially hyped as the new money. However, as digital currencies evolve, DeFi has proved that toppling state-controlled financial systems requires a far greater variety of services. DeFi has seen major evolutions in the past two years, from stablecoins providing an alternative to volatile cryptocurrencies to autonomous lending that can function without any intermediaries. However, even with all of these advancements, the sector has taken some hits this year, with a handful of hacks through early 2020. The top issues in Decentralised Finance, as well as current and future solutions necessary to protect early adopters, foster development, and make this industry scalable for mass adoption are all covered in this report. Even while DeFi may not be fully matured, it seems it\'s not yet time to throw the baby out with the bathwater. The rise of these solutions to help protect early adopters along with the high interest rates on DeFi loaning, greater transparency, and peer-to-peer services that allow people to maintain complete ownership of assets throughout financial services, means that many are very excited about this subsector of the blockchain industry succeeding. Story continues This report takes a hard look at what can be done now to mitigate risk when engaging in this young sector, as well as the challenges currently faced and potential fixes to not only make Decentralised Finance viable for the future, but a workable alternative to traditional banking systems for global populations. Quotes Marc Zeller, Integrations Lead, Aave: \'In DeFi, everybody has the same deal. Everything is open source, and the interest rates are the same. If you bring $100 or you bring $1 million, you get exactly the same deal. And that\'s brand new [in financial services]\'. \'In five years, 90% of the users [of DeFi], in terms of individuals, will be liquidity providers looking for a safe haven for their savings. And they will use these kinds of third party applications, super easy to use.\' \'Right now the biggest issue with all DeFi protocols, all users are at the same risk[...] That\'s why with Aave, we are going to launch staking very soon, and put the risk into the end of the LEND token holder.\' \'If we don\'t reach a trillion dollar market in the next 15 years, it\'s a failure.\' \'What prevents a lot of people from getting into DeFi is that they say, \'Yeah, I only make 0.5% a year in my traditional finance saving accounts, but I know that in case of failure, the bank will give me my money back\'. [...] And I think it will be a gamechanger to have an insurance scheme to say, worst-case scenario, your money\'s back. So why stay at 0.5% interest per year?\' Kain Warwick, Founder of Synthetix: \'DeFi still has significant tail risk, so insurance is likely to remain very costly in the short term, but as protocols mature, costs should come down over time, allowing for simpler and more useful insurance to emerge\'. Hugh Karp, Founder of Nexus Mutual: \'I actually think regular people are going to start getting exposed through games or other communities first. Something with tokens underneath that you\'ve earned through participation, which can then lead to exchanging them for digital USD\'. \'As more regular people enter DeFi, protecting users is going to be paramount\'. Piers Ridyard, CEO of Radix: \'The complexity of getting yield via DeFi is going to start to be abstracted away by simple consumer apps that offer competitive rates on their savings, instant liquidity, and *almost* the same degree of deposit protections as their banks provide.

Following on from a 2.74% fall on Wednesday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,057.1. A bullish start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning intraday high $9,564.1 before hitting reverse. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $9,796.13, Bitcoin slid to a late intraday low $8,815.3. Bitcoin slid through the first major support level at $9,254.43 and second major support level at $9,006.87 before finding support. Late in the day, Bitcoin broke back through the second major support level to $9,150 levels before easing back. In spite of the late pullback saw Bitcoin steered clear of the second major support level. The near-term bearish trend, formed at late June 2019’s swing hi $13,764.0, remained firmly intact, reaffirmed by the March swing lo $4,000. For the bulls, Bitcoin would need to break out from the 62% FIB of $10,034 to form a near-term bullish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was a bearish day on Thursday. Cardano’s ADA slid by 8.18% to lead the way down. Bitcoin Cash ABC (-5.01%), EOS (-5.18%), Ethereum (-5.40%), Stellar’s Lumen (-5.98%), Tezos (-6.30%), and Tron’s TRX (-5.35%) also saw particularly heavy losses. Binance Coin (-4.80%), Litecoin (-3.46%), Monero’s XMR (-4.70%), and Ripple’s XRP (-3.51%) weren’t far behind. Bitcoin Cash SV saw a relatively modest 1.93% decline to In the current week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Monday low $268.43bn before falling to a Thursday low $239.96bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $245.55bn. Bitcoin’s dominance rose to a Monday high 68.31% before falling to a Wednesday low 67.25%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 67.45%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was down by 0.59% to $9,004.0. A bearish start to the day saw Bitcoin fall from an early morning high $9,060.2 to a low $8,975.0 Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Story continues Elsewhere, it was also a bearish start to the day. Bitcoin Cash SV and Cardano’s ADA led the way down, with losses of 1.26% and 1.04% respectively. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to move back through to $9,150 levels to bring the first major resistance level at $9,475.7 into play. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from the morning high $9,060.2. Barring an extended crypto rebound, the first major resistance level would likely limit any upside. In the event of a broad-based crypto rally, resistance at $9,500 would likely leave Bitcoin short of the second major resistance level at $9,894.3. Failure to move back through to $9,150 levels could see Bitcoin spend a 3 rd consecutive day in the red. A fall back through Thursday’s low $8,815.3 would bring the first major support level at $8,726.9 into play. Barring another extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should steer clear of the second major support level at $8,396.7.

The world\x92s largest crypto exchange is deploying a physical server node for its pool at BitRiver, the largest bitcoin mining hosting provider in Bratsk, Russia. The move would give miner owners at BitRiver who choose to switch to Binance a better connection and direct route to its mining pool, the two firms said in an announcement Friday. In return, Binance would gain exposure and access to customers who run their machines at BitRiver, which currently operates mining facilities at a capacity of 70 megawatt (MW) out of a full capacity of 100 MW. Related: Malaysia Crackdown Unlikely to Affect Binance, eToro According to the Bitcoin mining map compiled by the Center for Alternative Finance , affiliated with the University of Cambridge, the current monthly average hashrate from miners in Russia is at 6.08% of the network\x92s total, with a slight growth from 5.93% that was reported in September 2019. See also: Bitcoin Mining Difficulty Sets New Record High 2 Months After Halving Similarly, miners in Kazakhstan are estimated to contribute to 3.14% of Bitcoin\x92s total hashrate, which has grown from 1.42% that was recorded in Q3 last year. Meanwhile, the map shows China\x92s average Bitcoin hashrate dominance has dropped slightly from 75% recorded in Q3 2019 to now 71%. Currently, nine out the 10 biggest bitcoin mining pools by hash rate are either home-grown companies in China or owned by crypto exchanges with strong roots in the Chinese market. Related: Binance CEO Criticizes Twitter Security After Coordinated Attack on Prominent Accounts If assuming on average customers at BitRiver are using relatively more state-of-the-art bitcoin mining machines, like Bitmain\x92s AntMiner S17s or equivalent models with an efficiency level of about 50 watt per terahash second (W/T), BitRiver\x92s bitcoin mining farms could boast a total hashrate of over 1,000 petahash per second (PH/s). Story continues While that level of hashrate may only account for about 1% of the total computing power on Bitcoin, the deal underscores Binance\x92s strategy of absorbing bitcoin miners in different regions \x96 with somewhat aggressive pricing plans since its launch \x96 into its exchange functions, including spots, futures and margin trading. \x93Binance Pool offers a highly competitive fee structure to institutional-scale miners, who are the customers of our data center,\x94 Igor Runets, CEO at BitRiver said in the announcement. He estimates that up to 50% of the farms\x92 hashrate from its customers may switch to Binance Pool, following the deal. These clients will mostly switch from the Bitmain controlled BTC.com pool, Runets added. The two parties did not disclose whether or how Binance is offering discounted fees to attract customers at BitRiver. But lower-than-market rate is one of the key measures that Binance has taken to stir up the Bitcoin mining pool competition even though the revenue made from such business is negligible compared to its trading side. Binance is also reaching out to the miners in Kazakhstan, two of them told CoinDesk. See also: Bitcoin Miner Maker Canaan Drops 3 Directors in Possible Boardroom Coup The exchange rolled out its bitcoin mining service in late April, has amassed around 7,000 PH/s of bitcoin hashrate and is currently the eighth-biggest bitcoin mining pool, following its competitors Huobi and OKEx. It adopted the so called Fully-Pay-Per-Share (FPPS) model and initially offered zero fees and right now charges less than 2.5%. But in some cases, the fee offered to large-scale miner operators can be below 1%. Meanwhile, other major bitcoin mining pools like F2Pool and PoolIn have reduced their fees from previously 4% to 2.5%, although larger customers also do have the flexibility of a further discount. The FPPS model means a pool only charges an agreed fee for the block subsidy in every block it mined and then distribute the block subsidies as well as transaction fees to miners proportionally based on their contribution. Based on a Binance Pool business proposal deck CoinDesk obtained, the exchange categorizes its miner customers into nine levels. Those with over 500 PH/s are labeled as VIP9, the highest ranking, which would equal to a VIP9 in its trading business, who are offered an exchange trading fee of as low as 0.015%. Bitcoin blockchain data shows Binance Pool has mined 485 blocks as of writing since it went live with total block subsidies of over 3,000 bitcoin. Even at a 2.5% fee, the fees generated would be around half a million dollars. Anna Baydakova contributed reporting.

You are an expert financial analyst. Your primary task is to predict the next 10 days of Bitcoin prices. Analyze the provided news and historical price data to make your forecast. **Today's Key News:** ['Bitcoin, BTC to USD, rose by 0.19% on Friday. Partially reversing a 0.66% fall from Thursday, Bitcoin ended the day at $9,167.3. It was a bearish start to the day. Bitcoin fell to a mid-morning intraday low $9,102.1 before making a move. Steering clear of the first major support level at $9,041.73, Bitcoin rose to a mid-day intraday high $9,194.0. Falling short of the first major resistance level at $9,242.33, Bitcoin fell back to $9,141 levels before finding support. Bitcoin briefly revisited $9,190 levels before easing back. The near-term bullish trend remained intact in spite of the early July pullback to sub-$9,000 levels. For the bears, Bitcoin would need to slide through the 62% FIB of $6,400 to form a near-term bearish trend. The Rest of the Pack Across the rest of the majors, it was yet another mixed day on Friday. Stellar’s Lumen and Tezos rose by 2.22% and by 2.34% to lead the way. Tron’s TRX (+0.19%) also joined Bitcoin in the green. It was a bearish day for the rest of the majors. Cardano’s ADA led the way down, falling by 2.95%. Binance Coin (-0.58%), Bitcoin Cash ABC (-0.24%), Bitcoin Cash SV (-0.43%), EOS (-0.19%), Ethereum (-0.33%), Litecoin (-0.45%), Monero’s XMR (-0.13%), and Ripple’s XRP (-0.03%) also saw red. In the current week, the crypto total market cap rose to a Monday high $273.18bn before falling to a Thursday low $258.89bn. At the time of writing, the total market cap stood at $264.46bn. Bitcoin’s dominance fell to a Monday low 63.09% before rising to a Thursday high 64.28%. At the time of writing, Bitcoin’s dominance stood at 63.80%. This Morning At the time of writing, Bitcoin was flat at $9,167.5. A mixed start to the day saw Bitcoin rise to an early morning high $9,175.0 before falling to a low $9,163.3. Bitcoin left the major support and resistance levels untested early on. Elsewhere, it was another mixed start to the day. Bitcoin Cash SV (-0.67%), Cardano’s ADA (-1.06%), Monero’s XMR (-0.50%), Stellar’s Lumen (-3.46%), Tezos (-1.72%), and Tron’s TRX (-0.15%) saw red early on. Story continues Binance Coin (+0.26%), EOS (+0.08%), Ethereum (+0.11%), Litecoin (+0.10%), and Ripple’s XRP (+0.33%) found early support. For the Bitcoin Day Ahead Bitcoin would need to avoid a fall through the $9,155 pivot to support a run at the first major resistance level at $9,206.83. Support from the broader market would be needed, however, for Bitcoin to break out from Friday’s high $9,194.0. Barring an extended crypto rally, the first major resistance level and Friday’s high would likely cap any upside. In the event of a crypto breakout, Bitcoin should break through the second major resistance level at $9,246.37. Resistance at $9,300 would likely cap any upside. Failure to avoid a fall through the $9,155 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $9,114.93 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should avoid sub-$9,000 levels. The second major support level at $9,062.57 should limit any downside.

Failure to avoid a fall through the $9,155 pivot level would bring the first major support level at $9,114.93 into play. Barring an extended crypto sell-off, however, Bitcoin should avoid sub-$9,000 levels. The second major support level at $9,062.57 should limit any downside.

Despite the sophistication of cryptocurrency data and analysis since 2011, BDD remains a fundamental metric to understanding and valuing bitcoin.

Charles P. Rettig, et al. Washington, D.C., July 15, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- This Tax Day, New Hampshire resident James Harper filed alawsuitagainst the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) along with his tax return. The New Civil Liberties Alliance, a nonpartisan, nonprofit civil rights group, represents Mr. Harper inJames Harper v. Charles P. Rettig, et al.before the United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire. Mr. Harper’s “crime”? Holding a bitcoin wallet. The lawsuit argues that the IRS has acquired the unbridled power to demandandseize Americans’ private financial information from third parties withoutanyjudicial process in defiance of the Fourth and Fifth Amendments and statutory protections. Mr. Harper bought his first bitcoin in 2013, and ever since then, he diligently paid all applicable taxes and reported his trades related to bitcoin holdings. Throughout these years, all his transactions were facilitated through three digital virtual currency exchanges: Coinbase, Abra, and Uphold. Given that all of them had contractually promised Mr. Harper to protect his private information, he was genuinely surprised when on August 9, 2019, he received a letter from IRS informing him that the agency had obtained his financial records related to ownership of bitcoin without any particularized suspicion of wrongdoing. Mr. Harper is one of 10,000 virtual currency owners who received such aletter, according to the IRS website. The IRS somehow obtained Mr. Harper’s records without a valid subpoena, court order, or judicial warrant based on probable cause. The Fourth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution protects “the right of the people to be secure in their … papers … against unreasonable searches and seizures.” In this case, the IRS violated the Fourth Amendment by issuing an informal demand for Mr. Harper’s financial records from a third party even though it lacked any particularized suspicion that he had violated any law. The complaint also says that the IRS violated the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment by seizing Mr. Harper’s private financial information from the third-party virtual currency exchange(s) without first providing him with notice and an opportunity to challenge the seizure of his property. From the very beginning, the IRS acted in violation of the statute of special procedures by third-party summonses by failing to notify Mr. Harper of the summons and making a gross, baseless, and arbitrary judgment that he may not comply with IRS tax obligations. This case presents the opportunity to correct the course of constitutional privacy law. NCLA released the following statements: “The expectation is that when you enter into an agreement with a third party, the third-party and the government will respect contractual rights. But the law in this case has departed from cherished Constitutional principles and the fundamental understanding that prohibited peeking into a person’s private papers without the use of a judicially-approved subpoena. Not only did the IRS demandandseize Mr. Harper’s information, but it is unlawfully holding on to that data withoutanyjudicial process. NCLA is going to right this wrong.” — Caleb Kruckenberg, Litigation Counsel, NCLA “The Internal Revenue Service is notorious for treating law-abiding taxpayers as guilty until proven innocent. IRS is hiding behind cryptic, unexplained reasons for using its formidable machinery against Mr. Harper. Thankfully, the Constitution is not so obscure. The Fourth and Fifth Amendments require IRS to demonstrate that the agency followed lawful procedures before attempting to audit Mr. Harper’s cryptocurrency transactions.” — Adi Dynar, Litigation Counsel, NCLA ABOUT NCLA NCLA is a nonpartisan, nonprofit civil rights group founded by prominent legal scholar Philip Hamburger to protect constitutional freedoms from violations by the Administrative State. NCLA’s public-interest litigation and other pro bono advocacy strive to tame the unlawful power of state and federal agencies and to foster a new civil liberties movement that will help restore Americans’ fundamental rights. ### Judy Pino, Communications DirectorNew Civil Liberties [email protected]... - Reddit Posts (Sample): no_data...
