Innovation, Regulation, and 20 Crypto Jokes
Another week of innovation and regulation in the Cryptoworld. We learned that Binance plans to start an open blockchain project, Venus, and a new digital currency might be delivered to the Cryptosphere. Santander is bringing a Ripple-powered app to Latin America, Rakuten enters crypto trading business, MaiCoin wants to join Facebook’s Libra Association and believes that Taiwan will become Libra’s Chinese-language capital, and the Austrian State Printing House aims for 'major role' in crypto adoption.
While the EU antitrust regulators are looking to grill Facebook’s partners about Libra, the U.S. and Swiss regulators also decided to have a discussion on Facebook’s Libra and “other cryptocurrency projects“, and Israeli financial regulators want to give blockchain and fintech companies a fast-track, but individual crypto traders have been left frustrated by the banking system. In South Korea, while Kakao’s Ground X signed a business deal with Woori, government authorities again delayed the verdict on an application lodged by Moin.
Meanwhile, in miscellaneous news, in the week that saw Ethereum Classic beating 96 coins, Sichuan’s BTC miners have unfortunately been flooded, Vitalik and CZ disagree over blockchain capacity and speed issue, buyers of "virgin bitcoins" are paying up to 20% more, Bitcoin’s popular twitter handle abandoned BCH for BTC, and new Satoshi Nakamoto appeared, surprising nobody.
And now, following our collection of 19 crypto vanity plates, we bring you crypto jokes. Enjoy!
