This post is to clarify the “Bloomberg” and “Forbes” logos that were shown in the “Partners” section of our official website.

Bloomberg and Forbes are the media that published an article about ICON. Currently we do not have any ongoing blockchain based projects with them.

The website renewal yesterday showed Bloomberg and Forbes logos under the “Partners” section of our website, potentially misleading our viewers.

Our website did not clearly separate between “Partners” and “Media”. We have taken down two company’s logos and will update our website soon so that it clearly distinguishes “Partners” from “Media”.

We would like to sincerely apologize for any misunderstanding.

The ICON team will carefully examine all the information we distribute so that no unclear message is sent out. Once again, we would like to apologize for any misunderstanding caused by this incident.

20$ after wallet launch and with good Korean legislation and hype to 100 till end of year  Grin
everything sounds very fantastic, I think by the end of the year, the price will exactly exceed 50 bucks Wink

You must understand that much depends on the government of Korea. We have already made sure that the negative news strongly influences the price of the ICON. By capitalization, ICX reliably established itself in the top 20 coins. The coin is definitely one of the most promising for 2018 for long-term investment. Cool

No problem then  Cool

South Korea says no plans to ban cryptocurrency exchanges, uncovers $600 million illegal trades

Dahee Kim, Cynthia Kim

SEOUL (Reuters) - South Korea’s finance minister said the government has no plans to shut down cryptocurrency trading, welcome news for investors worried that authorities might go as far as China’s tough action in blocking virtual coin platforms.

The comment by Kim Dong-yeon on Wednesday comes as traders at home and around the world have been spooked by conflicting comments from government officials in South Korea, a major hub for cryptocurrency trade, that Seoul was planning to ban local digital coin exchanges.

“There is no intention to ban or suppress cryptocurrency (market),” Kim said, adding the government’s immediate task is to regulate exchanges.

Reinforcing Seoul’s intent to tighten the screws on a market widely seen as opaque and risky by global policymakers, the country’s customs earlier on Wednesday announced it had uncovered illegal cryptocurrency foreign exchange trading worth nearly $600 million.

“Customs service has been closely looking at illegal foreign exchange trading using cryptocurrency as part of the government’s task force,” it said.

South Korea has been at the forefront of pushing for broad regulatory oversight of cryptocurrency trading as many locals, including students and housewives, jumped into a frenzied market despite warnings from policy makers around the world of a bubble.

Seoul previously said that it is considering shutting down local cryptocurrency exchanges, which threw the market into turmoil and hammered bitcoin prices. Officials later clarified that an outright ban is only one of the steps being considered, and a final decision was yet to be made.

CRYPTO CRIMES

Customs said about 637.5 billion won ($596.02 million) worth of foreign exchange crimes were detected.

Illegal foreign currency trading of 472.3 billion formed the bulk of the cryptocurrency crimes, it said in a statement, but gave no details on what action authorities were taking against the rule breaches.

In one case, an illegal FX agency collected a total of 1.7 billion won ($1.59 million) from local residents in a form of “electric wallet” coins to transfer it to a partner agent abroad. The partner agent then cashed them out and distributed the settlement to clients based in that country, according to the statement.

In South Korea, only licensed banks and brokers can offer foreign exchange services. Local companies and residents who move more than $3,000 out of the country at a time must submit documents to tax authorities explaining reasons for the transfers. Annual overseas transfers of more than $50,000 must also be reported with similar documents.

Effective from Jan. 30, authorities imposed rules which allow only real-name bank accounts to be used for cryptocurrency trading designed to stop virtual coins from being used for money laundering and other crimes.

Among other breaches, Customs said there were also cases where investors in Japan sent their yen worth 53.7 billion won to their partners in South Korea for illegal currency trade.

It said authorities will continue to monitor for any violations of foreign exchange rules or of money laundering activities.

Bitcoin stood at $10,123.13 as of 0842 GMT on the Luxembourg-based Bitstamp exchange. The heightened regulatory scrutiny around the world, however, has seen bitcoin dive about 27.1 percent so far this month, on track for its biggest monthly decline since January 2015.

Cryptocurrencies got another jolt last week after Tokyo-based exchange Coincheck said hackers stole over $500 million in one of the world’s biggest cyber heists.

One Token to Move Anything Anywhere
Ian Balina not so long ago praised the project, said that there will be some of the most grandiose news that he heard in his life. The price of the token after that has grown, and has then fallen. Apparently it's Ian sold on the growth and reduced the price of the ICX Grin

I believe that this coin will possible get to the 20$ by March, this coin will make one of the biggest coin with great potentials in 2018.

ICON is one of the top blockchain tech with solid team out there in the blockchain space. One of the best long term investment.

Actually the Korea government support cryptocurrencies. If you do your research, The Loop technology already implemented their blockchain ID across most major banks in Korea, where as others working on blockchain ID. ICON stands out for its strong team and establishment, enterprise-ready solutions using blockchain tech. This is the value behind ICON.

That's looking really unlikely now that the market as a whole is getting crushed.  Pretty sure its technically the 31st in Korea now, and if something was to get announced in this current market climate, I highly doubt it moves the needle.  I feel like mainnet has already been built into the price.  This will likely need some exchange listings to really boost it further IMO.

If one believes in ICON project for the long term, no, it might not affect the price much due the the market conditions, but its value actually increasing as more dapps building on top of the platform.
