Digital Currency is certainly not due to die.
Swiss investment bank UBS is set to open a London-based research lab to explore the application of blockchain technology in the financial services industry.
The innovation lab, due to open later this month, will be housed at FinTech accelerator Level39 in Canary Wharf – one of London's major business districts.
A group of financial technologists will lead the initiative, which attempts to bring together experts from both the banking and FinTech sectors to examine how traditional banking can drive business growth through innovation.
Oliver Bussmann, group CIO at UBS, said in a statement:
"Our innovation lab at Level39 will provide a unique platform to explore emerging technologies such as Blockchain and crypto-currencies, and to understand the potential impact for the industry."
"We are moving away from a purely in-house innovation strategy, optimising collaboration opportunities with the growing FinTech business, start-up and investor community in an open and transparent way," he continued.
The news comes after the Swiss banking giant published an extensive report in March last year outlining the widespread benefits bitcoin's technology could offer if it was co-opted by the traditional banking system.

Happy Easter everyone! Have a great day with your family and friends!
Have a lovely Easter..I hope for the next few months to heavily trade DNOTES to try to grow some more.. so had to take from vault to liquify..I hope if I can make another 10k Dnotes from trading over the next few months to put back what I took from vault then have pure funds to trade to make more will be good for the retirement funding..
..I am hoping some other investments will also pay off so can get the vault to 100k at some point before the year end..Hi Qiwoman2. I sent you an email a few days ago. Not sure if you received it. If you have changed your email address, please let me know. I will re-send it. Thanks.
Glad to know that you had a good weekend. Hope everyone did too. We had a nice family gathering and had a great time. Sometime, it is good to have a quite period from the high drama Bitcoin world. It is becoming rather evident that the Bitcoin-Digital Currency world in indestructible. That is actually a very good thing and gives us even more confident that digital currency will indeed be the future of money, for those who still have doubts.
It was depressing to read about the near implosion of the Bitcoin Foundation. It’s sad, but it will come to pass. Bitcoin and Digital Currency may be dealt a temporary blow but should not suffer any permanent damage. After all, Bitcoin has died 53 times according to Bitcoin Obituaries.

'It may be a challenge at first to get your friends into crypto because the blockchain sounds complicated to them, and they oft say 'what do I do with it?' after you tell them that it is cash.'
One key here is to be prepared to buy and sell coin for cash at physical meetups. This facilitates 'micro-volume loops' in households, neighbourhoods, the student accommodation of a uni, the uni cafe, a local market -- anywhere people can connect a laptop to the Internet.
It is clumsy and time-consuming, but it brings together hands-on experience, tech-support, and discussion of cryptos.
We got the wife of a local President of the Chamber of Commerce to 'buy' a jar of chutney at an Easter fair. She'd never heard of 'cryptographic currencies.' But she hit the 'Send' button on my android Litecoin wallet, and we gave her the chutney (paid for out of our commercial-development budget).

And this I shall do at my uni, I never quite thought of creating a 'crypto' group for my university!!! Thank you for turning my mind to it. At such a place, I could purchase DNotes from the exchange, and sell it to students. I'll need to get this 'independent reserve' exchange website up and going first, because buying btc to later purchase DNotes is damn expensive in NZ, and takes forever. I'll continue to mull it over.
Easter is all over this side of the world now, I wish our US/CA friends a happy family holiday.

I want everyone's opinion on this one:
Which name do you prefer, "DNotes Digital Currency Education Tool" or "DNotes Guide to Digital Currency"? Also if you have a suggestion, I'm open to hearing new ideas.
The app is currently called DNotes Education Tool, and is available on Google Play.

I would recommend
Cryptocurrency Quiz - How much do you know about digital currency?
Using digital currency because it is the 'preferred term' didn't elude me, but I think more people will search for cryptocurrency.
http://www.straply.com/search/cryptocurrency
Click on the different apps to see more.
I also recommend, no matter what name you chose, to make very descriptive so the customer knows exactly what is when they see the title (if I search for something on my phone, all I see is the title and author).
Great job on the app. How about when someone answers, having a little description about the answer? "That's correct. Good job! A paper wallet can be a safe option if you learn how to ... Click here to Continue"
Great idea for the name, I'll include it in the next update. Not only is is more descriptive, but contains more keywords, I like it.
The other idea is good too, it was included in the update I launched last night.

I like "DNotes Guide to Digital Currency", but I also really like the word education in the title. I agree with kanus1113 that more people will search for cryptocurrency and I also like the wording of his recommendation. Here is a compromise possibility:

Just another of the many reasons we need cryptocurrency. Last week I got double charged on my debit card. Called up the company and they wanted me to contact the bank. Having gone through this before, I knew the bank isn't going to correct it for me, at least not without trying to charge me for it, so I refused. It took 3 calls to the company and a week to get the money back in my account. Many years ago I had the same thing happen, but it also over drafted my account, what a fiasco that was. There is a better solution, and it is right around the corner.

Can someone explain the CRISP for students thing? I find it a little confusing.
I will be delighted to help. Do you have specific questions that you need clarification? Are you a student planning to sign up?
Dnotes pretty much answered it for me
I am a student, but I already use and understand crypto, so I don't want to take up a spot that a beginner could use We would love to have you sign up and actively participate to help promote the project if possible. There will be opportunities for you to earn DNotes by helping out in the future. It's all up to you though. The program is designed to accommodate a very large number of students worldwide, so don't worry about using up a spot. We just wanted to start small to catch any problems. Let is know if you have any recommendations for improvement. Thank you for your support.
I would love to help promote it. Ill tell some of my friends about it!We are at the beginning stage of the biggest technology revolution in history. Relatively speaking, hardly anyone knows about it and even fewer people know enough to take full advantage it. If you have the interest, learn all about it and master it at a young age. I have been an entrepreneur for over forty years, with first hand knowledge of the personal computer and Internet era. Digital currency and the Blockchain technology will be even more massive and disruptive, with huge opportunities for those who positioned themselves early. Think of the few top 1% today, many of them became wealthy as a direct result of the personal computer and the Internet. I wish I were 10 years younger. Tell your friends about it and let us know how we can be helpful.
