Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, Merrill Lynch, Barclays Capital, BlackRock, McKinsey & Co and PricewaterhouseCoopers all have offices located in the building in the heart of the most expensive real estate market on earth, and now BitMEX will find a home on the 45th floor of the famed Cheung Kong center as well.\n\nBitMEX can boast the second highest trading volume of any cryptocurrency exchange and has experienced rapid growth in total users over the past year.\n\nBitMEX separates itself from many other exchanges by offering futures contracts on many different cryptocurrencies, allowing investors to speculate on the future prices of the most popular coins.\n\nThe exchange’s high volume of trading accounts for nearly 30% of the entire market and the company’s success has lead them to opening up shop in the most expensive real estate market in the world.\n\nWith rents in the midst of being hiked up in Hong Kong’s Cheung Kong Center BitMEX will actually pay a record high $28.67 per square foot, or $573,000 per month to be housed among the world’s most influential businesses.\n\nThis is a power move not only for BitMEX, but it shows the entire financial sector that cryptocurrency is growing and speaks to the legitimacy of the new technology.  Real estate prices are expected to continue to grow in the competitive Central District going forward.\n\n# <center>This article was also published on [zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/bitmex-exchange-moving-into-worlds-most-expensive-real-estate-market/ ) Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates.</center>",

The announcement was made known through a tweet via the Twitter handle of Coinbase on the 3rd of August. Ethereum Classic (ETC) will be available on Coinbase Pro and Coinbase Prime as at August 7th. This is good news for the Ethereum Classic community as more volumes are expected to be traded in coming days with the expectation of the ETC price moving up.\n\n# Ethereum Classic (ETC) To Coinbase\n\n\nThe recent development by the American powerhouse cryptocurrency exchange was made known through its Twitter handle on the 3rd of August. The tweets read,\n\n> “Our engineering team is beginning final testing of Ethereum Classic on Coinbase products. We expect final testing to be completed by Tuesday, August 7, at which point we expect to announce that we’re ready to accept inbound transfers of ETC.”\n\n\n\nBefore the announcement was made on the 3rd of August by Coinbase, the exchange had previously made known their testing of ETC integration in June of this year. The exchange plan is underway presently for Coinbase Markets and Coinbase Consumers to go live with their ETC support after liquidity and stability will be established on the platform.\n\nAs the new integration is lining up to boost the value of the Ethereum Classic (ETC) cryptocurrency, Coinbase exchange is still in to list more cryptocurrencies. In July, Coinbase had made its interest also known for integration of 0x (ZRX), Basic Attention Token (BAT), Cardano (ADA), Stellar Lumens (XLM), and Zcash (ZEC) on its platforms. There have been previous predictions of ZRX and BAT as most prime for adoption by the American giant exchange.\n\nFor cryptocurrencies to have more liquidity, stability, value and popularity adoption and integration alike is necessary for each crypto, as seen with the rise of Digibyte in the past week with its partnership with UTRUST and some other platforms.\n\nLikewise boosting the image of cryptocurrencies remains the mission of cryptocurrency exchanges such as Coinbase or Binance listing some of the major tokens, making them easier to purchase.  \n\nAs the cryptocurrency world awaits the approval of Bitcoin ETF, the expected boost, increase in value, the stability that the community awaits is dependent on support and integration.\n\n\n\n\n# <center>This article was also published on [zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/coinbase-to-list-ethereum-classic-etc-in-few-days/) Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates.</center>",

These are similar to any other investment scam: the scammer will claim to have inside knowledge about price movements they will use to make you a fortune. If you invest, your money will quickly disappear,” Deputy Chair Rickard warns.\n\n\nFurthermore, according to Delia Rickard the most vulnerable to these crimes are Australia’s older citizens.\n\n  People aged 45-64 make up more than half of the reports of monetary loss to the ACCC.\n\nFinancial officials in Australia have warned citizens to be wary of “risk-free” investments and to think twice about handing money over to people making claims of huge million dollar gains in short periods of time.  \n\nAustralia is encouraging their citizens to visit the website MoneySmart.gov.au to educate themselves on not only cryptocurrency, but to build an overall understanding of the financial risks involved in investing.  \n\n\n\n# <center>This article was also published on [zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/cryptocurrency-scams-remain-prevalent-in-australia/ ) Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates.</center>",

In the cryptocurrency market, they have to let us know what they think or expect in the market over the coming weeks. After they share their thoughts, sometimes their intended message gets lost in the translation and when predictions go wrong, they are blamed by investors whilst they lose credibility.\n\nSometimes they themselves get their message on price predictions wrong and end up costing investors who depend on their world money. So, how are experts and crypto enthusiasts getting lost in some very simple messages? Two words, possibility and likelihood.\n\nThe two seem to mean the same thing but are quite different in meaning, in one hand possibility means that anything could happen, bitcoin going as low as $2,000 or as high as $50,000, are both great examples of possibilities.\n\nOn the other hand, bitcoin is likely to rally to $10,000 in the coming months and less likely to bottom at $3,000 is a great example of a likely scenario, and one based on conclusive data.\n\n# The Trick To Understanding Crypto Experts\n\n\n\nIn the case scenario of a possibility, bitcoin could do just about anything, it can rally in an unprecedented way like in 2017 and possibly go even higher, all the way to $50,000, or it could simply bottom out and go all the way to $3,000 or again possibly lower.\n\nAll these predictions are based on taking a leap of faith, and the expert’s prediction is based on this. It is highly and always likely that they are based on no relevant or factual information hence the results are almost certainly predictably wrong.\n\nWhen a pundit makes a prediction based on likelihood, this is a whole different ball game. The prediction is based on relevant information, market trends, and historical events. This is exactly where the clever money goes and the results are nearly perfect every time.\n\nFor example, based on previous trends, the listing of cryptocurrencies in big crypto exchanges has always led to a price surge and experts would have called this for Basic Attention Token and 0x which have recently made it to the list of cryptocurrencies to be listed on the Coinbase crypto exchange. The price of the two cryptocurrencies rallied by 25% and 15% respectively, making the crypto market $3 billion richer in valuation.\n\nSo, what does the market need to understand? Experts need to be more clear, do they see the likelihood of a particular virtual currency going high or down or do they see the possibility of that particular currency going up or down? If the expert is not clear on this, investors have to be more keen, listen to the expert’s words more keenly, look at their arguments from a liberal point of view and distinguish between the possibilities from the likelihoods. The better you understand the market, and the pundits who understand the market better than you, the better you’ll perform in the market.\n\n# Market Recent Slip Up\n\n\nWith that out of the way, what’s happening with bitcoin? Well, unfortunately it’s down again, not the ‘big’ kind of down, just slipping a little further than what we’ve been accustomed to in the last couple of days.\n\nAt the time of press, bitcoin was about $6,238 which is not good for investors, this recent fall creeped up on the market on Thursday July 2018 and was the latest test for the market, and unfortunately, the market isn’t holding on too well. For the past few days, the crypto community has been expecting the price to correct itself but the bullish run back to the $6,300-$6,400 price range is slowly slipping away.\n\nAccording to reports, the fall was triggered by an announcement by payment app Square to pull out its license application to become an industrial loan company. This would allow the payment to operate its platform similarly to a bank account.\n\nHowever, its influence on the crypto market has been allowing New York traders to trade cryptocurrencies on their platform a trend they planned to continue. Whether this was the reason for the slip or not, one thing is for sure, the market is crying out for some good news.\n\n\n# <center>This article was also published on [zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/is-it-possible-or-is-it-likely-that-bitcoin-will-hit-20k-50k-or-even-300k/ ) Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates.</center>",

Ada, the cryptocurrency behind Cardano, is currently trading hands at a price of $0.12, at the time of writing and has experienced a 3.4% drop in price over the past 24 hours.\n\nCardano is being developed by previous Ethereum developer, Charles Hopkinson and is intended to become a smart contract platform that will be better than existing platforms. The Cardano blockchain is said to be able to handle thousands of transactions per second dwarfing the 25 transactions per second currently achievable by Ethereum.\n\nCardano is currently ranked at 8th in terms of overall market cap across the entire industry with a total market cap of $3.26 billion. Over the past 30 trading days Cardano has dropped by a total of 26.46%.\n\nLet us continue to analyse price action for Cardano over the short term.\n\n\nPrice Analysis\n\nADA/USD – SHORT TERM – DAILY CHART\n\nhttps://www.tradingview.com/x/VpMDUdEn/\n\n\n![ada1.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmbs2HkVyCntaq9mZD2HKtaPyvWcsBpg6zQryfjPgbosJq/ada1.png)\n\n\n\nAnalysing the market from the chart above, we can see that Ada had experienced a bullish run during April when price action rose from a low of $0.14 on the 6th of April to a high of $0.38 on the 29th of April. This was a price increase of 170% from low to high.\n\nAfter placing this high, price action went on to depreciate throughout the following months and eventually fell to levels below the $0.14 starting handle described above. Cardano is currently trading at $0.12. We can see that the market had recently found a form of support at a 1.272 Fibonacci Extension priced at $0.11. This is a Fibonacci Extension taken from the entire bearish leg seen throughout May.\n\nIf the bearish pressure witnessed over the previous two months continues, we can expect Ada to head toward support back at the 1.272 Fibonacci Extension. If the market push prices further below this level, then further support is located at $10, followed by the 1.414 Fibonacci Extension located at $0.08.\n\nAlternatively, if the market manages to garner bullish momentum from this area near term resistance will come in at July’s high priced at $0.16. If the market can continue past this level, then further resistance can be expected at the bearish .382 Fibonacci Retracement priced at $0.21. This is a Fibonacci Retracement taken from the entire bullish run seen through May and June. It is also important to note that the 100 day moving average is also located within this location adding to the expected resistance in this area.\n\nThe technical indicators are largely leaning toward the bears as witnessed by the bearish pressure within the market. The RSI is trading well below the 50 handle and is heading toward oversold conditions. For the market to turn bullish, we would expect the RSI indicator to make its way back above the 50 handle.\n\nLet us continue to analyse ADA’s market action relative to Bitcoin over the recent period.\n\nADA/BTC – SHORT TERM – DAILY CHART\n\nhttps://www.tradingview.com/x/Q0GT11eC/\n\n\n![ada2.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmQvXgQuJJhvV2dEmWucymsbupeehXgSG7iRiRzhkoaeog/ada2.png)\n\n\nAnalysing Ada’s performance against Bitcoin over the recent period above, we can see that Ada had appreciated against Bitcoin when it rose from a low of 1173 SATS on the 18th of March and extended all the way to a high of 4184 SATS on the 3rd of May. This was a price increase of 145% from low to high.\n\nPrice action is currently trading at support located at the .886 Fibonacci Retracement priced at 1962 SATS. This is a Fibonacci Retracement taken from the bullish run described above.\n\nIf the market can continue to hold at the .886 Fibonacci Retracement and begin a bullish run, then we can expect near term resistance to come in at the .786 Fibonacci Retracement located around 2278 SATS, this is also close to July’s price high. Further resistance can be located at the .618 Fibonacci Retracement priced at 2633 SATS.\n\nAlternatively, if the market falls below the .886 Fibonacci Retracement then near term support can be found toward the lows seen in March priced at 1677 SATS.\n\nThe technical indicators are also largely favouring the bears within this market. The RSI is trading well below the 50 handle indicating that bears are in control of the market. If we want to see the bearish pressure seen recently within the market to subside, then we would like to see the RSI make its way back toward the 50 handle.\n\n\n# <center>This article was also published on [zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/cardano-technical-analysis-001-cardano-eyes-fresh-monthly-lows-but-strong-support-in-sight/) Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates.</center>",

Hackers have persistently come up with new, crafty ways of accessing secure systems and stealing cryptocurrencies. This time around, they have devised a new malware that targets the user’s end-point.\n\n# How It Works\n\nAccording to a report released by a security firm, BleepingComputer, which detected the malware, the criminals mainly target users using Windows Operating Systems and deploy their malware on the target computer.\n\nOnce installed, the malware infects the computer’s clipboard and monitors all copy-and-paste operations. They exploit the fact that most users just copy and paste addresses to cryptocurrency wallets especially when sending the currencies.\n\nThe malware works by detecting when a user has copied and pasted a crypto address, and then it interchanges the pasted address with the hacker’s wallet address; such that when the victim sends the payment, they end up sending it to the hackers address instead of the intended receiver’s address.  \n\nThis kind of hacking malware is dubbed CryptoCurrency Clipboard Hijackers. According to BleepingComputer, this malware has affected over 2.3 million crypto wallet addresses.\n\n# How To Keep Safe\n\nSince the malware exploits the copy and paste operations on the Windows Clipboard, it is possible for the user to detect any changes to the pasted address by counter-checking it against the original one (from where they copied it).\n\nThis way, the user is able to know if their address has been tampered with and take steps to correct it and ensure that they send their cryptos to the right address.  This keeps the user safe since the hacker, or the malware in question, has no way of changing the address on the fly after the send transaction is initiated.\n\nAnother smart way of keeping safe from such covert attacks is by ensuring that you have a well-running, up-to-date antivirus software installed on your computer at all times.\n\n\n# What The Future Holds\n\nAccording to a recent report covering cyber attacks targeting crypto owners, hackers find it convenient to target cryptos because the stolen cryptocurrencies are hard to trace. Experts are also concerned with the increasing hacking incidents that could give hackers incentive to develop more aggressive hacking tools.\n\nOf more concern is that such developments may give rise to tools that can counter advanced cryptocurrency security systems. However, that is yet to be seen.\n\n\n# <center>This article was also published on [zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/report-theres-a-malware-thats-stealing-cryptos-by-changing-pasted-addresses/) Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates.</center>",

The ever-growing self-opinion and predictions about the cryptocurrency’s future are still standing tall, with new ideas and statements every now and then as to whether bitcoin will blow up or will crash to zero. However, cryptocurrencies volatility and the unprecedented events surrounding it has made its future quite unclear t many.\n\nA lot of words has been said about bitcoin, some being pleasant and whiles others don’t even deserve to be talked about. Given the performance of bitcoin for the past few months, it would only be fair if it is slandered and defamed.\n\nMany investors have to be on the losing side after the crypto hit its all-time low this year, and a little disappointment can be expected.\n\nMany people have since used this dark chapter in the cryptocurrency’s journey to further their agenda that bitcoin will soon crash to zero. Many predictors have clearly stated that bitcoin is set for doom and investors should be wary of throwing their money into something which will soon be completely worthless.\n\nA notable figure is Nouriel Roubini, infamously known as Dr. Doom, who has been anything but positive towards the development of Bitcoin. He has publically shown his dislike for the cryptocurrency for quite some time now and it seems his ideas are somehow spreading and gaining grounds.\n\n\nVanguard’s global chief economist Joe Davis in a recent blog post threw his support on Dr. Doom’s prediction, stating that “I see a decent probability that its price goes to zero.”\n\nHis comments and predictions are however seen as a counter effort to all the barriers that cryptocurrencies are breaking. Bitcoin has been in the crypto market for almost 10 years now and its journey has been nothing but mind-blowing as compared to other cryptocurrencies.\n\nIts worth went from zero to almost $20,000, a feat which wasn’t expected to be achieved any time soon. Although the current price is lower than what many people would have expected, it doesn’t give room for the extreme thought that, the cryptocurrency will fall to zero.\n\nBitcoin’s declining price in the early stages of this year has been one of the biggest percentage losses in its history, however, it isn’t the worst even that the digital coin has endured. Bitcoin witnessed a huge 87% reduction in price between November 2013 and January 2015 when it fell from $1,163 to $152.40.\n\nThe underlying technology behind bitcoin and the coin itself has evolved massively and is expected to continue to grow. Price fluctuations are part of the crypto market but the idea that bitcoin will crash to zero is proving to be nothing more than an absurd lie.\n\n\n# <center>This article was also published on [zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/do-not-be-deceived-bitcoin-will-never-hit-zero/) Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates.</center>",

The cryptocurrency currently is trading hands at a price of $80.65 as it battles to stay above $80 at the time of writing.\n\nLitecoin was created in October 2011 by ex-google employee Charlie Lee. Lee set out to create a cryptocurrency that was “lighter” than Bitcoin and thus created Litecoin. If Bitcoin would be compared to gold then Litecoin was intended to be silver.\n\nLitecoin can boast faster transaction speeds and lower speeds. It already has tech far superior to Bitcoin with the SegWit activated and Atomic Swaps already in the pipeline.\n\nThe cryptocurrency has suffered a terrible month falling 28.72% in the past 30 trading days. The crypto giant is currently in the top 10 ranked cryptocurrencies in terms of market cap, sitting at 6th rank with a total market cap of $4.61. This is down by a total of $1 billion from the high market cap of $5.63 billion seen last week on June 21st.\n\nLet us analyse price action over the course of the year and see how the market has been trading.\n\n\n# Price Analysis\n\nLTC/USD – LONG TERM – DAILY CHARTS\n\n\n![ltc1.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdDAuApWNouG2kQozbavK6YxBB3Z4WdNpSDHkxsvqYZph/ltc1.png)\n\nhttps://www.tradingview.com/x/rAV8sK2U/\n\n\nAnalysing the chart above, we can see that Litecoin had experienced an incredible bullish run during the months of November 2017 and December 2017 as price action rose from a low of $49 in November to a high of $370 in December. This was an extraordinary price increase of 730% from low to high.\n\nAfter the placement of this high, we can see price action went on to depreciate throughout the year, largely staying above $120 near the .786 Fibonacci Retracement priced at $122.92. This is a Fibonacci Retracement taken from the bullish run seen during November 2017 and December 2017.\n\nPrice action went on to break below this price level during the current month of June. The bearish pressure, witnessed throughout the entire industry, pushed the market further below $100 until it briefly found support at the .886 Fibonacci Retracement at a price fo $90.82.\n\nHowever, the bears were still positioned strongly within the market and continued to push prices even lower to where they currently trade at fresh 6 month lows. We can see that price action has currently found support at a 1.272 Fibonacci Extension level marked at a price of $73.80. This is a Fibonacci Extension taken from the all time high seen in December 2017 to the low witnessed on January 17th at $137.\n\nIf the market can manage to stay above this level and the bears begin to subside with their bearish pressure, then this would allow the bulls to push the market back above the .886 Fibonacci Retracement and eventually above near term psychological resistance at $100. A break above $100 would leave the market free to retest June’s monthly highs around $129. Resistance following this level is located at the .618 Fibonacci Retracement at a price of $176, this is also May’s monthly high.\n\nLet us analyse price action over the more recent period a little closer.\n\n# LTC/USD – SHORT TERM – DAILY CHART\n\n\n![ltc2.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmUpZFXFwyGiZaoq74B6BA1GCLMNuXV1QGk5rPX2wzaUJm/ltc2.png)\n\nhttps://www.tradingview.com/x/b6M97Pd4/\n\n\nLooking at the market from a more near term perspective, we can see that the previous long term 1.272 Fibonacci Extension mentioned above also coincides with another short term 1.272 Fibonacci Extension adding to the validity of support expected to be found in this area.\n\nThe short term Fibonacci Extension, marked in dark red at a price of $73.85, is taken from the high of $252 seen in February to the low of $109 experienced in March.\n\nIf the bears manage to push the market below the short term 1.272 Fibonacci Extension, then the market will continue to make fresh multi-month price lows as Litecoin depreciates in value.\n\nThe closest level of expected support following a break of $73.85 is the short term 1.414 Fibonacci Extension marked at a price of $53. Support further lower following a break of $50 can be found at the long term 1.414 Fibonacci Extension at a price of $40.62.\n\nThe technical indicators are largely favouring the bears in this scenario. However, the RSI indicator looks to be making its way back toward the 50 handle which could indicate that the bearish pressure is beginning to fade. For a confirmation of this, we will look for the RSI to break above the 50 handle.\n\n\n\n\n\n# <center>This article was also published on [zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/litecoin-ltc-technical-analysis-001-short-term-rebound-as-litecoin-makes-fresh-6-month-lows/) Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates.</center>",

The ban was part of an attempt to stomp out the use of the social media giant to aid fraudulent behaviors in not only the cryptosphere, but the entire financial sector.  Facebook described the effort as a way to protect its users from “financial products and services frequently associated with misleading or deceptive promotional practices.”  \n\nNow, in a policy reversal, Facebook will once again allow companies to purchase ad space for cryptocurrencies.\n\nAlthough enforcing a ban on cryptocurrency related ads for about a half a year, Facebook has displayed an overall open attitude in regards to blockchain and cryptocurrencies. Mark Zuckerberg has alluded to Facebook’s desire to use blockchain technology to fix the security and privacy problems that the company faced in the last few years.\n\nIn May, Facebook also formed a blockchain team headed by a  Coinbase board member, further signaling their intentions to enter the crypto space.  \n\nRob Leathern, Facebook’s Product Management Director acknowledged the vague nature of the company’s policy at the time of the original ban in January noting, “this policy is intentionally broad while we work to better detect deceptive and misleading advertising practices… We will revisit this policy and how we enforce it as our signals improve.”\n\n\nEven while loosening the restrictions on cryptocurrency and blockchain startups, the company still stands by its intentions to prevent misleading services from advertising with Facebook.  The team at Facebook will continue to prohibit advertisements for initial coin offerings or ICOs, which have been shown to be a breeding ground for scams.\n\nGoing forward, Facebook will deploy a vetting system to review any entity that wishes to buy ad space on the social media platform.  According to the announcement, companies that wish “to run ads for cryptocurrency products and services must submit an application to help us assess their eligibility — including any licenses they have obtained, whether they are traded on a public stock exchange, and other relevant public background on their business.\n\nGiven these restrictions, not everyone who wants to advertise will be able to do so. But we’ll listen to feedback, look at how well this policy works and continue to study this technology so that, if necessary, we can revise it over time.”\n\nAs Facebook revises its policy regarding cryptocurrency, other social media platforms may follow suit.  A more lenient attitude toward crypto advertising could help to spread the word about the growing technology and assist in ushering in its acceptance; but, it may be just as likely that crypto ads will simply serve to aid scams.\n\n\n\n\n\n# <center>This article was also published on [zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/facebook-backtracks-on-ban-and-will-again-allow-cryptocurrency-ads/) Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates.</center>",

Highly secure, decentralized, and seamless information is assured, and this will no doubt increase productivity levels for staff and agencies involved.\n\nIt is also understood that the CBC is exploring other potential cases of blockchain application to its mode of operation.\n\nA new era has begun!\n\n\n![DQmS1VYzPn492k7FQEmfEEWcjp72tZwKM7FQiLvZzMNNy8U_1680x8400.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmX54FFceU5ebMjjkMypbNqvbiVbNDqyLRjQfgzkJUsawp/DQmS1VYzPn492k7FQEmfEEWcjp72tZwKM7FQiLvZzMNNy8U_1680x8400.jpg)\n\n\n# <center>This article was also published on [zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/central-bank-of-brazil-to-use-blockchain-for-sharing-information/) Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates. </center>",

The app is to be developed by Raccoon World, a VR firm.\n\nA Co-founder and First Ambassador of the Satoshi Nakamoto Republc, Andriy Moroz explained that Vladmir Lenin symbolises the past and the presupposed inventor of Bitcoin represents the future. He spoke to Radio Free Europe and stating that :\n\n> “The monument to Lenin was a symbol of last centuries that had already passed, leaving conflicting feelings in the hearts of people. Satoshi and the decentralization of society are a new era and new opportunities,”\n\nFuture plans for the organisation includes its goal to purchase an Island to establish a city in the name Satoshi Nakamoto City. The organisation also seeks to incept what is termed a “virtual decentralized blockchain-republic” where random cities worldwide will bid to host a Nakamoto statue, the winners will earn the largest amount of cash.\n\nWith the winners being the cities which collect the largest amounts of money. While big cities like Dubai, Beijing,Tokyo and New York have already in the game, the biggest statue of Nakamoto will be conserved for the Satoshi Nakamoto City.\n\n\n# <center>This article was also published on [zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/satoshi-nakamoto-is-getting-a-statue-in-ukraine-but-whats-the-look/) Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates. </center>",

Also the digital assets mentioned are not virtual currencies.”\n\nRemarkably, the project would involve an exchange platform for non-standard assets based on blockchain technology, the first of its kind in China.\n\nGiven this new meaning, the agency has not published a statement to clear the air and doesn’t seem ready to do so anytime soon.\n\n# A Welcomed Confusion\n\nThere is little doubt that the misconception about “blockchain digital asset exchange” raised the hope that a positive change was coming to the Chinese crypto trading market.\n\n# That would not be!\n\nHowever, even though talks of a government-backed cryptocurrency has been ruled out, crypto enthusiasts in China would continue to hope that the central government will soon soften its stance on ICOs in order to promote the growth of new cryptocurrencies and the economy at large.\n\n\n# <center>This article was also published on [zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/chinese-city-chongqing-causes-disarray-with-digital-asset-exchange-plan/) Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates. </center>\n\n\n![DQmbFbCD4jv3sAzmaA7C6WL2pu8dbgsqXGavMbjYKiWftZ7_1680x8400.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXCg3Dgh9fgnGXeFsSi84SssYxrX9syDQ1GXht6xxmCxx/DQmbFbCD4jv3sAzmaA7C6WL2pu8dbgsqXGavMbjYKiWftZ7_1680x8400.png)",

Will dip in July.” It’s now mid-June, and McAfee seems to have received a new vision.\n\nMany of his fans found his tweet funny this time with many referring to his former tweet with one of them by the twitter handle @Danrocky saying,\n\n>\"But your prediction was for June, and i already ordered a Lambo.\"\n\nAnd another saying,\n\n>\"i hope you are right John!! I’m holding like a fu*king champ!!\"\n\n\nSomeone by the name Jocelyn Simard, critically analyzing his prediction from the current price says it’ll take a miracle for his prediction to come true. In Simads point of view, for the price to hit $15k, it should take a year, or possibly a bit more.\n\n>“Even for July that would be almost a miracle. I would give it more like a full year (and that would still be A LOT faster than the 3 decades it took the Dow Jones to come back in the 30s-40s and 50s…).”\n\nJudging by the current price of Bitcoin and alternative cryptocurrencies, there’s been a massive drop in price in the past 24hrs. The price of Bitcoin in the past seven months have dropped from a high about $20k to $6500+ and still falling.\n\nBeyond what the market shows, many analysts have expressed high believe in the price of bitcoin, with some saying the price will surpass $20k soon.\n\nWhether this will come true depends on how the rest of the market reacts to this news. But as it stands, seems many are selling off to lock in some gains.\n\n\n[This Article was also published On ZyCrypto.Com](https://zycrypto.com/john-mcafee-predicts-bitcoin-bounce-back-15k-in-price-latest-july/)",

The apparent trigger for this was the refusal by ItBit, Coinbase, Kraken, and Bitstamp to provide January’s trading data with the Mercantile Exchange.\n\nUpon the CME asking for particular data, many of the exchanges denied forwarding such information and were “non-compliant” with regulatory needs. Many of them later provided “some” data, when CME asked for only a few hours of trading data and not for the whole day. However, the little information that some of the exchanges did share was not conclusive and was apparently, “restricted to a few market participants.”\n\nThe allegations by CME and the lack of proper action by the mentioned exchanges forced the CFTC, which is in charge of bitcoin futures markets into subpoenaing  these exchanges. The issue of the legal instrument to these exchanges makes it compulsory for them to respond with necessary data.\n\nCFTC has gone on record stating that, the disciplinary action was on the significant denial of access over bitcoin trading data, and the creation of an atmosphere of ‘fight’ among the stakeholders.  The body will thus launch a full-fledged investigation into manipulation of spot prices of bitcoins in these exchanges.\n\nOver discussions on the legitimacy of CFTC as a regulatory body for Bitcoin, the default categorization of the cryptocurrency as a ‘commodity’ by the government, is sufficient to legitimize CFTC’s regulatory stipulations.\n\n\n# Exchanges criticize strong action by CFTC\n\nResponding to the subpoena by CFTC, Kraken CEO,  Jesse Powell says, CFTC action\n\n> “has the spot exchanges questioning the value and cost of their index participation.” Criticizing the strong action, Paxos (which own ItBit) CEO, Charles Casarcilla says, “We have definitely entered an unknown area where it is clear there is a desire for tightened oversight.”  Other named exchanges, Coinbase and Bitstamp, did not react to the CFTC “oversight.”\n\nIn the meanwhile, BTC prices dropped as trading began on Monday, over news of cyber intrusions’ in South Korean crypto markets.\n\n# South Korean intrusion pushes BTC price Drop\n\nOver the weekend, news of a cyber breach in a South Korean crypto exchange, set bitcoin prices back by nearly 10-percent with prices. Since a  high of $20,000 in December, bitcoin value has dropped steadily hitting an annual low of $6,000 in February.\n\n\n# <center>This article was also published on *[zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/cftc-subpoenas-btc-exchanges-over-fixing-spot-prices/)* Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates.</center>\n\n\n![DQmbFbCD4jv3sAzmaA7C6WL2pu8dbgsqXGavMbjYKiWftZ7_1680x8400.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmXCg3Dgh9fgnGXeFsSi84SssYxrX9syDQ1GXht6xxmCxx/DQmbFbCD4jv3sAzmaA7C6WL2pu8dbgsqXGavMbjYKiWftZ7_1680x8400.png)",

They provide financial advice to both corporate entities and individuals, but also governmental bodies around the globe.  \n\nLazard’s Chairman and CEO, Kenneth M. Jacobs says that for years, the US dollar has been the reserve currency of the world.  The US dollar has been the preferred currency for worldwide business due to its stability, but increasingly unilateral economic and trade policies could threaten the status of the US dollar as the reserve currency of the world.\n\nCurrent polarization in American politics is causing policies to become more extreme. Economic experts and even the President of the United States are tossing around the phrase “trade war” on a fairly regular basis.\n\nProbably the greatest demonstration of soft power is the fact that the U.S. has the reserve currency of the world\nJacobs warned that if the United States keeps on its path of isolationism, the country could lose its economic hold on world markets.  “To the extent that we have unilateral foreign policy and unilateral trade policy, we’re sort of tempting the world to find an alternative,” Jacobs said on Bloomberg TV.\n\nJacobs did not say he thought these consequences were imminent, but wonders how long this could go on before viable replacements become realistic.  He opined, “there’s enough technology out in the world today with cryptocurrency and changes going on that you can imagine, if you let your mind wander a little bit, that something becomes an alternative in the future.”\n\n# <center>This article was also published on *[zycrypto.com](https://zycrypto.com/lazard-ceo-says-cryptocurrency-could-become-the-reserve-currency-of-the-world/)* Follow us for more cryptocurrency news and updates.</center>",
