Yahura System - Time Magazines Superb Article !

Yahura System - Time Magazine The Chief Strategy Officer at the Human Rights Foundation has published an article in the world famous Time Magazine titled ‘Why Bitcoin matters for freedom.’ It is going viral. Alex Gladstein, who is also involved with the Oslo Freedom Forum , talks about how Bitcoin is providing an option for Venezuelans, who after years of high inflation, have watched their bolivares “turn into scrap paper.” “Today, Venezuelans are adopting and experimenting with Bitcoin to evade hyperinflation and strict financial controls,” Mr Gladstein writes. “Speculation, fraud, and greed in the cryptocurrency and blockchain industry have overshadowed the real, liberating potential of Satoshi Nakamoto’s invention. “For people living under authoritarian governments, Bitcoin can be a valuable financial tool as a censorship-resistant medium of exchange.” Mr Gladstein also talks about how Bitcoin can allow Venezuelans to transfer money to their

Yahura System - Happy Birthday Bitcoin !

Yahura System In the decade of its existence, Bitcoin has been portrayed in the mainstream media in a number of radically different lights. In its earliest days, of course, it had no media presence whatsoever. As more people became interested in the potentially revolutionary properties of the financial technology, however, Bitcoin hit the news as a law enforcement-evading tool of dark web criminals. Despite this negative publicity, intrigue in the innovation continued to grow and in the last two or so years, the narrative changed. The focus was now on the financialisation of the world’s first viable digital asset. Much of the coverage in the planet’s largest news resources would centre on products aimed at investors such as ETFs , trading desks, and futures markets , as well as the evolving regulatory environment surrounding the entire cryptocurrency space.

Yahura System - Why falling prices make us SMILE

Let’s admit it. This year was a bit chaotic for blockchain efforts. Cryptocurrencies crashed. The SEC rained on the ICO parade. Many corporate projects, announced with elaborate fanfare, seemed to progress at a snail’s pace. On top of it all, someone claiming to be Satoshi threatened to take the price of bitcoin down to $1,000 , while a related faction threatened what amounted to a DDoS attack on a rival fork by planning to mine worthless blocks. (With blockchain friends like these last two, who needs a six-fingered man for an enemy?) And on a more somber note, we lost Tim May, who provided early inspiration for me and many others with crypto-libertarian aspirations. So why am I smiling? It would be presumptuous to say that I know something that informed readers do not. But perhaps I have a longer-term perspective. For while as a community we celebrated the 10th anniversary of Satoshi’s white paper , next year is another anniversary for me. Namely, 2019 will mark 30 years since

Coinbase’s COO recently appeared on CNBC and said that the exchange will try to list as many meaningful coins as possible in the year to come. Coinbase is the ultimate venue where every coin aspires to be listed and this is a relief for many good projects waiting on the side bench. 200-300 meaningful coins out of total 3000 odd coins In a very candid interview to CNBC’ Fast Money, Asiff Hirji , COO of one of the world prominent crypto exchange , spilled out the beans on a variety of topics in relations to exchanges outlook for the coming year. One of the prominent points that Hirji touched up was listing of newer coins on the platform. Hirji, who was pretty straightforward in answering, said that the exchange plans to add as many meaningful coins as possible. To quote him, he mentioned, “The reality is that three or four years back Bitcoin was the only coin that mattered in cryptocurrency and then Ethereum came along. Now we are at a point where there are 3000 or 4000 currencies
