What do ICO’s (Initial Coin Offerings), TGE’s (Token Generation Events) and Coin Sales all have in common? They unfortunately don’t currently have the regulatory oversight that many similar investment contracts would currently carry. On top of this, they also deliver an asset in an extremely volatile environment (which can have little to no value), unlike traditional crowdfunding methods which delivers a widget

At the core of all investment platforms needs to be a model to protect its investors against minimising any losses.

Monero Mining Malware Hits Apple Macs
A new Mac-based cryptojacking attack was reported this past week on Apple’s forums, forcing users to unwittingly run software that mines privacy coin monero.

According to a Malwarebytes Labs blog post, the software was discovered when a user noticed that a process called “mshelper” consumed suspiciously-large amounts of CPU time. The user said that mshelper was constantly appearing in the CPU section of their Activity Monitor at high levels. They noticed this after installing BitDefender, which constantly relayed that mshelper was deleting it. This user tried using Malwarebytes, which proved unhelpful.

One reader suggested running Etrecheck, which immediately identified the malware and allowed the victim to remove it.

The Record-Breaking $152 Million Battle Over Blockchain Betting Tool Augur

No Blockchain Network is Remotely Close to Ethereum, Says Golem CEO
 
Zulian Zawistowski, the CEO of Golem, a smart contracts-based decentralized supercomputer, stated that Ethereum is the most promising blockchain platform in the global cryptocurrency sector and no other blockchain protocol comes remotely close to Ethereum’s potential and applicability.

Ethereum’s Advanced and Sophisticated Platform
Golem, the 47th largest cryptocurrency with a $387 million market valuation, which recently was introduced to the South Korean market with the support of Bithumb, the country’s biggest cryptocurrency exchange, is an Ethereum-based blockchain network that is capable of solving difficult mathematical problems and processing complex computations by utilizing the computing power of its users’ computers, machines, and data centers.

On the Golem protocol, users are incentivized to lease their computing power to individuals and businesses that are in need of massive computing power to carry out intensive tasks such as CGI rendering. Essentially, Golem is a decentralized ecosystem that allows users to share and monetize their computing power.

Zawistowski, who leads the development and commercialization of Golem, stated that his development team has been building applications on top of the Ethereum blockchain network since its early days and by far, Ethereum is the most promising blockchain protocol in the global sector.

We have introduced above the two Fluzcoin issuing mechanisms by which the Fluzcoin monetary system can exert inflationary pressure on prices and downward pressure on the exchange rate. Deflationary pressure on prices and upward pressure on exchange rates is created through reducing the number of Fluzcoin in circulation. This is done by EUNOMIA Foundation which acts as a central bank for the Fluzcoin system.

Monero Lead Developer Unveils Second-Layer Protocol ‘Tari’
 The lead developer of Monero has unveiled a new second-layer protocol that will allow users to create and trade digital assets on top of the privacy-centric cryptocurrency’s network.

The open-source project, called Tari, will make it possible to program and issue non-fungible assets like loyalty points, in-game items, and concert tickets over the blockchain. The tokens will function similarly to ERC-721 tokens in the ethereum network (e.g. CryptoKitties), enabling users to take ownership of unique digital assets.

“Tari will fundamentally change the way we interact with digital assets,” said co-founder Naveen Jain. “We are building an amazing team to steward the most useful decentralized platform in existence, empowering anyone to issue, manage, use and transfer their digital assets.”

A very interesting selection of news, but I note that the news about Singapore is much louder, and an unequal assessment of the actions of the authorities of the country to regulate the market. There is an opinion that this is an informational throw in order to strengthen the copper trend, but there is no exact information yet.
