The dark net changes preferences

Representatives of a far-famed in the inner circle Recorded Future company, dealing with cybersecurity, suggested that in the Darknet in 2018 the cryptocurrency leader will change. It is Bitcoin so far, but Litecoin and DASH are increasingly competing with it.
Researchers say that after studying about 150 forums, marketplaces and illegal services of the dark web, they came to the conclusion: a third of resources support Litecoin, 20% — DASH.
A representative of Dash Core Group took the statement with indignation, assuring that 20% is an absurd figure, which has no evidence.
Nevertheless, we can see the tendency when alcoins start catching up with the first cryptocurrency, and the reasons for this can be explained by a high commission for transactions and workload of the network, a sharp correction of the exchange rate. And the statistics confirms this: in March 2017 the share of bitcoin in the capitalization of the market was fluctuating at the level of 70%, and today it is 35% — a two times fall.
Darknet is an area of the World Wide Web where resources are not indexed by search engines, and personal data is closed to trackers and law enforcement. As one might guess, banned goods trade, like drugs, weapons, hacker services, etc., sometimes flourishes here. You can get into the dark area of the Internet through special anonymizers, ordinary browsers do not give such an opportunity.
By the way, there is some interesting news on the Darknet. In Bangkok, at the request of the FBI, Sergei Medvedev was detained, suspected of organizing an Infraud site, a Darknet resource which was used to sell fake credit cards, illegal financial information, weapons, drugs, etc. 100.000 BTC were found on the account of the figurant, it is a huge amount of money! Earlier, on February 6, the US authorities closed Infraud, 32 members of the group have been already arrested on the case.

Bitcoin is falling, but the MNW token doesn`t really care

Against the background of cryptocurrency community worries our investors keep calm.
And this is quite understandable. The team of the international project Mining Now systematically overcame three collapses of cryptocurrency in a row. The developed plan allows moving forward, accurately fulfilling all the inferred financial obligations for investors and partners.
On February 8, the total cost of purchased equipment for mining amounted to about 3.1 million euros. The total power consumption reached 945 kW. Today the technical capabilities of our project allowed increasing the generation to 1.27 bitcoins a day.
It`s enough to say that over the past period of 2018, the price of MNW token increased from 9.2 to 9.6 euros. At the beginning of this year, the unit yield of the digital asset was 57.33%, as on February 1 it was 51.33%.
It’s easy to see that the business model of the international Mining Now project allows you to hedge against sharp fluctuations in the cryptocurrency cost in the market. The price of our tokens is set based on the average monthly return of 3%. Accordingly, even in the case of financial jumps of bitcoin, MNW tokens continue work to improve the financial well-being of each investor and partner.
Frankly speaking, the general panic in the cuprocurrency market to some extent affects the growth of the price of our tokens. They`re growing a little bit slower, but do not become cheaper. Therefore, the estimated amount of payments for February will be 34 euro cents per a token, which is 3.54% of its value.
And now the main thing.Even though bitcoin is falling down, MNW token does not really care. The declared amount of the February payment is equivalent to its value of 11.33 euros. Conclusion — it`s even more interesting to invest in our project now than in the period of growth of cryptocurrency. Do not miss your chance not to get lost in the crypto-ocean.
Let`s mine together!

180000 ASIC-miners — can you imagine?

In the state of New York, the United States, the authorities are planning to start an ambitious project to re-equip an abandoned smeltery in the village of Massena to a huge mining farm, where they will install no less than 180.000 (one hundred and eighty thousand !!!) miners, and the target cryptocurrency will be bitcoin.
The location of the project`s implementation is due to the availability of cheap electricity supplied from a nearby hydroelectric plant. The output power will reach 15 MW.
The volume of investments is about $ 165 million. In addition to the business component, an important factor for initiators is 150 workplaces made during the implementation of the plan. These are security personnel, IT specialists, service staff, electricians, whose average annual salary will be $ 46.000.
The implementation period is two years. 75 employees will be hired in 2018, 75 — in 2019.
We may be wrong, but perhaps this project will launch the largest cryptocurrency farm in the world. It is pleasant to understand that a relatively new industry is beginning to affect the society providing people with jobs in places where there may not be enough ones. There are a lot of videos on YouTube showing large cryptoplants for currencies mining, but they announce the number of 3.000 miners. OK, 5.000. And here they have 180.000!
We will wait for the news from the state of New York. It is really interesting! And it would be nice to get how they will manage to reject such an incredibly huge amount of heat generated during the technological process. We wish good luck to our American colleagues!

In search of lost ships

Deepwater Systems, an Ecuadorian team of enthusiasts, took the challenge to search sunken ships, using modern technologies for this fascinating process, namely artificial intelligence and blockchain.
Surely, in childhood everyone with some thrill read or watched films about pirates and treasure hunt, imagining being adventurers! And you know what? Someone’s old dreams come true!
The complexity of prospecting is the disparity of historical data, point-wise deep-sea studies and inaccurate calculations.
At the bottom of the World Ocean there are about three million vessels containing good valued trillion dollars (according to UNESCO). The most interesting places with a high probability of finding objects are the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean Sea basin and the “Golden Triangle of Treasures.”
The main idea of the project is the following: the system Deep Learning developed by the company allows you to recognize underwater objects with an accuracy of 98%. The data of the autonomous scanning of a seabed is sent to a consort from specially designed unmanned underwater vehicles called gliders made with the introduction of artificial intelligence technology.
All information will be transmitted and stored on blockchain. The end product will be lots with the goods` coordinates, which are planned to be sold from the auction. Thus, in addition to own benefit, it will provide an extra inflow of money into the crypto industry.
As we see, the company plans to engage only in research activities. It`s understandable, as organizing the lifting of something from the bottom of the sea is the matter that requires completely different capital investments and skills. It can be assumed that there are a lot of people who would like to buy this kind of information.

“Was swimming once along the Yangtze River and thinking: the Chinese have done good job!”

Baidu, the Chinese search engine, presented the general public an analog of the CryptoKitties project, but this time the main characters are not kittens, but puppies. The startup was called “Leci Gou” or “Pet Chain”.
Recall, CryptoKitties appeared last year and became a headache for the developers of the blockchain Ethereum, since with the launch the cryptocurrency network began to experience overloads, which significantly increased the transaction time.
Whose blockchain will be use by “Leci Gou” is not known yet. Already now, the site of the project presents different types of puppies, each has its own cost and rarity. It is assumed that users will buy and develop pets, exchange them, and all such operations will be reflected in the project’s blockchain.
The authors of the project are their own search system`s specialists, who among others take part in the development of projects of the Hyperledger consortium.
Already now, any logged in user can get one crypto-puppy and 1000 points for trading operations using them.
The whole story with CryptoKitties and Leci Gou reminds a fun toy from the 90s, that was called Tamagotchi. It was an electronic gadget, where a digital pet lived. It had to be looked after, fed, and if the care of a pet was improper, it died. It is interesting that now it has taken a completely different form, and digital pets are sold for very serious money.

First Swallow

It became known that the cryptocurrency platform Coinbase sent its users in the US 1099-K tax form.
According to company`s representatives, this form applies to those who exceeded the required threshold, namely, made more than 200 transactions or exceeded the total amount of transactions which is $ 20,000 during the year.
This also includes business accounts on the GDAX exchange, in particular accounts whose operations for selling cryptocurrency for cash exceeded the thresholds. At the same time, the platform’s employees explain, the innovation concerns only those who received digital money in exchange for the provision of goods or services, and does not affect miners or persons who transferred personal funds.
Social networks are seething with discontent. The main complaints are that users were not notified beforehand about such measures, and their data was passed to the tax authorities. In addition, ostensibly, the received documents indicate amounts that exceed the actual ones.
The discontent is understandable, but, no matter how sad it may seem, this development was predictable and inevitable. The state does not tolerate the movement of money “out in the left field.” Last week same news came from India. In Russia, the authorities are trying to curb the law regulating cryptocurrencies, which will entail taxation. Now China is not ready to work out an unambiguous policy on this issue. Conflicting news every week comes from South Korea.
The question is difficult, serious and important. We hope that all the same the regulatory legislation will be implemented within the framework of common sense, and will not inflict any serious blow on the industry, which is important not only from an economic, but also from a technological point of view.

FedEx services will become more transparent

You have certainly watched Robert Zemeckis’ remarkable film “Cast Away” starring Tom Hanks. There he plays an employee of the postal company FedEx. In the plot the plane the character is on in his line of work, crashes, and Chuck, our character`s name, is on a desert island. Because of the loneliness and melancholy, if you remember, he begins to talk with the ball, seeing him as the only friend and companion in this difficult life situation. He even gives him the name Wilson. And how he cried when the ball was blown into the ocean …
This prologue leads to the fact that if the action of the film took place not in 1995–2000, but now, the character of Hanks could have long conversations with Wilson on the introduction of blockchain technology in the work of the company FedEx.
The modernization was the result of the accession of one of the largest transport companies to the Blockchain in Transport Alliance (BiTA). According to the industry publication FreightWaves, the in the frameworks of the alliance the organization is testing several developments, including integration of blockchain technologies into their daily operations.
According to Dale Christie, Vice President for Strategic Planning and Analysis, the program has already been launched to store data needed to resolve disputes. Its purpose is to identify information for a permanent ledger, which is required for convenient facilitation of disputes between customers and the company.
Christie believes that blockchain is a perspective technology which is able to simplify the data exchange process.
And Kevin Humphreys, FedEx IT Senior Vice President, expressed the same optimistic thoughts, adding that the innovations will make it more convenient to track parcels not only while they are at the company’s disposal, but before and after. That’s really interesting!
The conversation between Chuck and Wilson could have been long and interesting, as blockchain is chasm of possibilities, just like any technological breakthrough! By the way, who have not watched the film — spare time, it is really fascinating — a modern Robinsonade, funny and sad, however, like our whole life.

Blockchain city

The government of Taipei, Taiwan, has reached an agreement with IOTA on its intention to become a smart city, using the technology of blockchain. The choice of the metropolitan administration fell on IOTA because of their technology Tangle, which is able to provide a number of new solutions for residents.
The first step will be the creation of identity cards “TangleID”, which will store all the necessary information for interaction with government authorities, including data on citizen`s health. This initiative is primarily related to the need to eliminate the risks of personal data`s theft and fraud of votes. “TangleID” is planned to be made in the size of a palm and, among other things, equipped with sensors that show the actual state of the environment, such as humidity, temperature and pollution levels.
It isn`t reported yet on the further steps of the implementation of blockchain into the megacity`s life, but on all grounds the project is very ambitious. We hope that the experiment will be successful, and innovations will go beyond the boundaries of one settlement.
Similar experiments are held not only in Taipei, but each place has its features. Now it is difficult to say exactly where the technological thought will go further, it remains only to watch and wait for the results. Let’s get some popcorn!

Google to help cryptotraders

An interesting interrelation was promulgated by experts. Who would ever have thought.
Cryptocurrency analyst Nick Colas of Datatrek Research says: there is a direct dependence of the bitcoin rate on the trends of the world’s largest search engine. So, last December, when we all were watching the excitement around the first cryptocurrency, the number of web search queries on the bitcoin topic and the creation of wallets was very high. It was due to the high interest and desire to invest. The BTC rate confirmed this interest.
After the release of negative news, the activity of searching of these queries in the first month of the year decreased sharply, and the rate fell to $ 10,000 per coin.
Colas believes that now we need to expect positive news, which will spur the growth in the number of users supporting the upward trend.
The same considerations were expressed by the expert Christopher Burniske from ARK Invest. He believes that the pair BTC / USD correlates directly with the trends of Google’s queries, and called this phenomenon “the enchanted circle of Satoshi.”
Also a popular search phrase “buy bitcoins with a credit card,” arouses interest. It reflects the willingness of the Internet community to raise borrowed funds for investing in bitcoin.

Real estate agents in trend: house for bitcoins

Yitanzi, a Tokyo — based real estate company, put up a building for sale, valuing it at 547 bitcoins ($ 6 million).
CTO of the firm Yokosawa Yuske explained the readiness of many crypto investors to sell real estate for cryptocurrency by their desire to increase their trading limits without the verification process, as it is impossible to purchase a massive amount of bitcoins on cryptocurrency exchanges without undergoing this process. On the other hand, he says, there are enough interested people ready to spend digital money they have earned in recent years, and real estate in this case is a good object for investments.
A representative of Yitanzi assured that the building would be sold in the near future, but details of the deal were not disclosed.
Over the past months, we have occasionally encountered news stories about such cases in different parts of the world. Real estate, cars, household appliances, food, entertainment and so on — everything can be bought with a while ago not existing payment units that, by the way, are still ambiguously accepted by the governments of most countries of the world. And despite the endless debate on legality and the future of cryptocurrencies, they have already become a part of the economy, entering it without knocking and without asking permission.

Trick or treat?

The FBI center of complaints received an appeal, the reason of which was a new kind of Internet fraud. The crux of the matter is a user gets a message which states that an order for the addressee`s assassination has been received, and in order to avoid it, bitcoins equivalent to $ 2800 have to be transferred.
The text of the message, according to agents, is carefully formulated and horrifies an unprepared person. Thus, intimidation by murder is a very easy way of making money, even if only 1% of recipients pay to criminals.
According to the representative of the FBI, Laura Eimiller, every day about 800 Americans apply to them, and only 15% of cases are a real threat.
Such passions are running high in the USA. It remains to hope that states will find a way to overcome such manifestations, as every day the news reports look more and more frightening.
Recall, last year in Turkey there was the first murder for cryptocurrency…

Venezuelan bitcoin is the most profitable

The agency Elite Fixtures has released a rating of countries where it is most profitable to mine bitcoins.
The first place of the top-list goes to Venezuela, where the prime cost of one coin is 530 US dollars. The second place – Trinidad and Tobago with an indicator of $ 1190, Uzbekistan closes the top three – $ 1790.
The cost price is calculated from the expenses on electricity spent on mining one bitcoin.
The top 20 includes mainly the states of Eastern Europe and Asia. Ukraine has also entered it – $ 1852, Kuwait – $ 1983, Belarus – $ 2177, China – $ 3172. The cost price in Russia exceeds the Venezuelan one almost 9 times – $ 4,675.
The most expensive bitcoin is in South Korea. Despite the super popularity of the cryptocurrency in this country, it is unprofitable to mine there, as the prime cost is $ 26170. Today it is more than twice higher than the current market price.
The states of Western Europe took almost entirely the top 20 list of countries with the most expensive electricity.

The crime of the century?

It’s hard to judge, because the century is still at its beginning, but for sure this event will enter the rating of the largest thefts of the 21st century!
Today, the withdrawal of funds from Japan’s largest cryptocurrency exchange Coincheck was suspended, and NEM deposits were frozen. The market, as expected, reacted.
But then the press conference was held and it stirred the minds of the public. Representatives of Coincheck announced NEM amounting 58 billion yen (equivalent to $ 533 million) disappeared from their account in an unknown direction. President of the NEM Foundation, Lon Wong assured: everything is all right with the NEM technology, and the theft occurred solely through the exchange`s fault, since it hadn`t used the multi-signature function. He also announced that there were no plans to hold a fork for a refund. Wong called on cryptocurency exchanges to actively use the currency, but the function of multi-signature must be a prerequisite.
The coin`s exchange rate fell sharply from $ 1.02 to $ 0.76, but has already begun to stabilize. We will follow the developments, wishing the leadership of Coincheck and the NEM Foundation to cope with the crisis situation as quickly as possible and with the least losses.

Airport accepts cryptocurrency


You can come up with thousands of reasons to do nothing: weather conditions, economic or political situation, geographical isolation … However, despite the fact that Australia is far away from most of the countries that determine the world economy, it increasingly appears in the news lines of cryptocurrency market. It means the directivity to innovations of the country.
The airport of Brisbane, the capital of Queensland, now accepts cryptocurrencies. This is the first airport in the world which has launched the innovation.
On the official website the administration of the transport hub announced a cooperation with the TravelbyBit platform, which allows processing payments in Bitcoin, Dash, Ethereum and some other digital currencies. In this way you can pay in shops and restaurants in the two terminals of the airport.
According to the General Manager for Strategic Planning and Development of Brisbane Airport Corporation Roel Hellemons, it becomes clear the company has decided to provide this opportunity due to the understanding that nowadays many people make money investing in cryptocurrencies, and they also travel around the world and should have the opportunity to pay with digital money on the territory of an airport.
It remains to wait, when their colleagues in all countries will join such a topical undertaking!

Mission: to crack DNA

At the 2015 Economic Davos Forum in Davos a professor of the European Bioinformatics Institute Nick Goldman announced a competition: the one who cracks a DNA code will understand the way to get 1 bitcoin as a reward.
The challenge was accepted. A PhD student Sander Wuyts and his small team did what they first believed to be impossible. To increase the probability of solving the problem, they even held a “small hackathon”.
In the initial data there was a description on how to claim the bitcoin, a drawing by James Joyce, the logo of the European Bioinformatics Institute, and few other things.
The winner says that after his deed his consciousness has changed, and new horizons for research have opened. The received prize Sander Wuyts will use to fund his scientific work, and, of course, to reward those who helped him to crack the code.
It’s funny that at the time of the challenge`s announcement the cost of one coin was at the level of 329 US dollars, and the prize was received already at the rate of 11 000 USD.

Buterin asking for money

Vitalik Buterin, the founder of the Ethereum cryptocurrency, on his Twitter account warned the community about a new kind of fraud. The situation is ridiculous. From an imposter you get a mail on behalf of Buterin asking to lend him some money. The reason for this request is an allegedly broken laptop. Criminals also point out: to get the cold wallet, where Vitalik’s capital is kept, a week is needed.
It`s difficult to imagine who can believe in such a deception that doesn`t hold water. It`s like Bill Gates asking you for a Windows service key, because now he doesn`t have the opportunity to enter his own.
In his message Buterin asks to consider these mails to be fraudulent and not to react at all. At best, contact him personally.
Recall, the other day a popular phishing scheme on Facebook was revealed. Prior to that, owners of purchased at the e-Bay Internet auction Ledger wallets became victims.
However that may be, we are not going to stop calling on you to be watchful on the World Wide Web. Unfortunately, there`s much danger.

Oil with blockchain admixture

The triumphal march of blockchain around the planet continues!
Oil giant Shell bought a minority stake in a blockchain project Applied Blockchain, which has been on the market for about three years. Among the start-up`s clients are companies of banking and telecommunication sphere, automotive and aerospace industry organizations.
Shell has undertaken it in order to understand how blockchain can help to increase productivity and improve the business.
Johan Krebbers, the IT CTO of the oil corporation, said that the blockchain technologies have tremendous potential to shake up the processes in the oil industry, thereby helping to improve the efficiency of interaction with both customers and suppliers. Investing in Applied Blockchain, says Krebbers, is part of a plan to digitize data and create new business models.
Recall that last year the Mercuria trading company, in cooperation with banks ING and Societe Generale, began developing an oil trading system based on blockchain. According to experts, the integration of the distributed database in the oil and gas sector will help to optimize cross-border payments, improve the management of data and supply chains.

Credit Suisse is reassuring!

The report of the Swiss financial holding Credit Suisse has been recently published. It states that the growth of the mining`s popularity won`t lead to an ecological catastrophe.
Recall: due to the sharply increased interest in the cryptocurrency mining in recent years, there is a fear that in 2018 the possible increase in energy consumption in this sector will reach 140 TWh. A huge figure …
However, Swiss analysts have their own opinion on this matter. They consider the forecasting of a linear increase in energy consumption to be incorrect due to the fact that more and more companies are focusing their efforts on the use of alternative energy sources. And this makes mining more profitable, besides it creates competitive advantages in the market.
Despite the nervous atmosphere among ecologists and environmentalists, the holding’s specialists insist that the situation does not even threaten energy or ecological Armageddon.
According to Credit Suisse forecasts, in 2018 cryptocurrency miners will spend no more than $ 5 billion on electricity, while the total expenses of the whole planet will be 6 trillion.
They also note that major market players are transferring their capacities to the regions that have cheap electricity, thereby they positively affect the general statistics.
We will rely on the rightness of Swiss specialists!

Is LockChain a destroyer of Booking.com?

LockChain, a decentralized multiplex for booking hotel rooms all around the world, has launched an alpha version of the service, as it was reported in its release. This opportunity is available only in 600 hotels now, but the developers claim that by the end of February the number will be about 100 thousand.
Unlike the most popular service in the world, Booking.com, which takes about 20% of a room fee, LockChain won`t take a commission from either a client or a hotel. It will allow the first one not to overpay, and the second one to receive the full cost for the services provided.
The total value of the hospitality industry is estimated at $ 500 billion, and LockChain is the first to offer the blockchain technology for the sphere.
In the alpha version, which is fully functional, among other things, there is a personal wallet with multicurrency support, including fiats, and a dynamic offers search for.
After a successful sale of LOC token, which raised 10500 ETH, the price of coins increased by 600%. They are represented on the largest cryptocurrency exchanges, such as HitBTC, Mercatox, Etherdelta and Gatecoin.

Ledger: Series B Funding Round completed

It is not enough to make money, it is important to be able to save them. In the case of cryptocurrency, there isn`t any reliable methods but keeping cryptocoins in a hardware wallet that doesn`t have access to the global network.
The French Ledger company producing cold storage devices announced the closing of the Series B funding round. It raised about 75 million USD.
The company’s popular products are hardware wallets Nano S and Nano Blue. It`s recently become known that in total the firm sold more than a million Nano S units.
The raised money will be used to scale up the business and popularize cryptocurrencies. The organization also says it`s developing a new product, which is a new approach to managing cryptocurrency assets. Ledger Vault, that`s the upcoming device is called, is focused on institutional investors, which are, among others, banks and hedge funds.
Recall: the Series A funding round finished in last March and raised $ 7,000,000.
In autumn 2017, Ledger announced the beginning of cooperation with the American manufacturer Intel, whose goal is to develop solutions for more secure storage of digital currencies.
