Инвестиционная компания в сфере цифровых активов CoinShares запустила биржевой продукт (ETP) на основе Ethereum. Это будет второй ETP, выпущенный фирмой после запуска своей Bitcoin ETP в январе. Ethereum ETP зарегистрирован на швейцарской бирже SIX Согласно пресс-релизу от CoinShares, Ethereum ETP будет котироваться на швейцарской бирже SIX под тикером ETHE. Кроме того, ETHE будет запущен с активами на сумму 75 миллионов долларов и предложит инвесторам регулируемый доступ к Ethereum. Инвестиционная компания также заявила, что каждый ETHE будет изначально обеспечен 0,03 ETH, в то время как базовая плата за продукт составляет 1,25%. Таунсенд Лансинг, руководитель отдела продуктов CoinShares, считает это существенным плюсом. «Внедрение инновационных продуктов, таких как ETHE, позволяет нам продолжать устанавливать отраслевые стандарты доверия и прозрачности и предоставлять организациям легкий доступ к ведущим в отрасли инструментам криптоинвестиций», - заявил он. ETP - это ценная ценная бумага, которой можно торговать на национальных фондовых биржах в рамках дневной торговли. ETP отслеживают стоимость таких активов, таких как товары, валюты, акции или облигации. В случае ETHE базовым активом является Ethereum. За последние 12 месяцев наблюдалось увеличение запущенных ETP по мере того, как интерес учреждений продолжает расти. Это признает Фрэнк Спитери, директор по доходам CoinShares. «В первые дни 2021 года мы стали свидетелями сохранения прошлогоднего спроса на цифровые активы со стороны организаций. Мы также наблюдаем рост интереса инвесторов к Ethereum ». Второй крупный ETP будет запущен в 2021 году CoinShares - одна из крупнейших инвестиционных компаний в сфере криптовалют, под управлением которой находится более 4 миллиардов долларов. Это будет второй крупный ETP, запущенный CoinShares после ETP, поддерживаемого биткойнами, запущенного на SIX Swiss Exchange в январе. Биткойн ETP был запущен с активами под управлением на сумму 200 миллионов долларов и был хорошо принят финансовым сектором. Институциональная кастодиальная компания Komainu будет держать базовые активы биткойнов и Ethereum, поддерживающие ETP. CoinShares недавно сообщила, что планирует провести первичное публичное размещение акций на Nasdaq First North Growth Market в Швеции. Это событие может выделить фирму с первым криптоактивом, который станет публичным.

Most of the leading coins are still held by a small group of whales, and have not reached significantly wide adoption, a new report by Clovr shows. The discovery shows whales control the tokens even after accounting for exchange wallets. In the case of Litecoin (LTC), just 189 addresses with high net worth could end up with more than 50% of the coins. LTC is not a proof-of-stake coin, so ownership is not as important, but still the wealth inequality is significant. For Ethereum (ETH), just 322 “whale” wallets contain more than 50% of coins - a serious implication, given ETH will aim to include staking in its future upgrades. The situation is a bit better with Bitcoin Cash (BCH), which is more widely distributed, to more than 1,000 wallets. But some of the BCH wallets may be a legacy from the hard fork, not deliberately chosen. As for Bitcoin (BTC), 4,545 wallets contain more than 50% of coins. This includes exchanges, as well as older “whales” where the coins are not even moving. Rough estimates see about 3 million BTC locked forever for various reasons. When it comes to tokens, the situation is even worse. Even leading assets with a significant wealth distribution program end up with more than 70% of their supply in the hands of leading wallets. The risks of “top-heaviness” is different for each asset, and buying a token or coin is a matter of performing research each time. The highest risk for some tokens is that the founders or developer team may attempt to sell the asset to naive investors. The risk of big exchange wallets is a separate matter, as markets pose a risk for stealing from the hot wallet. For some smaller coins, storing most of the supply on exchanges has led to losses if the exchange decided to close.

The most important thing when it comes to trading in cryptocurrencies, is to be able to try and analyse the market and make predictions. For many this technical knowledge goes beyond what they have in the crypto field, and so they rely on that which is presented by news articles and the information that is released by the crypto analysts as well. Recently, and article by the cryptocurrency analysts show that the Ethereum coin could be in for a price drop to 1040 USD, as is predicted by some experienced crypto analysts. This would be a 35% drop in the price of this coin, which has in the past few months, been seeing new highs in terms of its price and value. This price reduction however is not uncommon in the cryptocurrency field as there is always a correction factor that happens after a major price hike, however crypto analysts say that this price prediction may not be limited to the Ethereum coin and may be experienced across the entire cryptocurrency market. Based on the current pattern for Ethereum pricing, the pattern is following a rising wedge, which is what analysts have used in determining that the price is likely to take a nosedive. It is expected that the selling market of Ethereum may start to exceed the buyer market, and therefore the decline. What are your thoughts on this? Do you think that this article can contribute to the panic selling that will also cause the price to go down?

Ethereum will soon release the first stage (Stage 0) of their long-anticipated upgrade of the network. If all goes well the Ethereum 2.0 will begin during this July and it is expected to be met with enthusiasm and massive interest from both the cryptocurrency and the financial world. Ethereum has already facilitated and promoted the use of DApps and DeFi products through its platform and now is looking forward to the new era of blockchains where scalability and PoS protocols will be the standard. It is believed that many projects are already making plans to proceed with similar changes in their code and protocols. The two main changes that we will see with Ethereum 2.0 first stage are: Proof of Stake and Sharding Proof of Stake is already on various testnets and the minimum needed to become a validator of the network is 32ETH. There are already more than 100k active addresses holding at least 32ETH and will be able to validate transactions and perform various network procedures while getting rewarded for it. The move from PoW (Proof of Work) to PoS (Proof of Stake) will happen during a transitional period between the three stages that might last many years though. Ethereum 2.0 Phases: Stage 0: ETH2 coin is released, swaps will be available from ETH to ETH2. PoS begins and stakes of a minimum of 32ETH can participate. Stage 1: Sharding architecture will be enabled on the new chain and it will be divided into 64 shards (different pieces) running together in parallel. Stage 2: The old chain migrates to Ethereum 2.0 As explained staking will provide passive income. Nothing has been officially released yet and the staking process is only on various testnets. I suggest watching this video by Boxmining that explains the process and that profits might be around $3 daily for the minimum requirements. So, right now these are the most important facts of Ethereum 2.0 that we should know about. It seems that altcoins will shift to a PoS model in the next years and perhaps we will listen to similar proposals coming from the Bitcoin community as well. Although I think that PoW will be the Bitcoin model for at least ten more years before even considering such a bold move. [EDIT]: While it was announced since the beginning of 2020 that Ethereum 2.0 will be released during this summer, the upgrade is delayed once again and its release will probably happen by the end of 2020.

Dear All, I will like to say thank you for reading my posts. In this topics I will be sharing some insight into expected price levels on different securities where we can look for reactions to either BUY,SELL,TAKE PROFIT or EXIT our positions. So I will encourage you to sitback and relax for various trading opportunities. Also I will like to point out that this is for information and educational purposes only. If you have not traded, I will implore you to note that as much as there is huge rewards so ALSO IS THE RISK OF LOSS THAT IS POTENTIALLY POSSIBLE. Therefore aim to ask question and learn how you can mitigate against such challenges. My 1st POST will be on BTCUSD Above is the Monthly Chart of BTCUSD currently trading @ $10688 at the time of writing this. I want to call your attention to some timings. 1st Last Month Trading activities shows a lack of upward directional continuation which ended up in an indecisive months and the expectation of the, New Month of September can potentially be bearish especially failing to close above in those price zone of $11750 and $13965. Having note that Technically this Month of September Bearish tone is likely going to continue if we close below 10559 low of last month(Important Reference Point to Note) For now we are in potentially postive territory as we are trading above 10559 @ 10688. Look forward to the lower timeframe analysis of BTCUSD n my next post.

Both Bitcoin and Ethereum have their prices soaring over these recent days, with 1 BTC currently priced at $11,633 while 1 ETH is at $381 as of this writing. But while BTC certainly has it price steadily rising as a result of its recent halving event, ETH is being viewed in the article linked below as only speculative, with its price increasing likely due to the DeFi application which some might view as having drawbacks. The article therefore insinuates that it will be safer to invest in BTC for a longer term rather than ETH. But if ETH can prove that its rise is no mere speculation and can hold out until its version 2.0 is released somewhere in the future, traders will be able to exploit this to their advantage. Do you agree with the article and its implications? Or can it be proven wrong? And knowing this information, what will be your trading strategy with these two crypto coins now, assuming you are dealing with both? source: https://cointelegraph.com/news/bloomberg-ethereums-rise-is-speculative-while-bitcoins-price-is-based-on-fundamentals additional information: https://www.publish0x.com/zenthereum/ethereum-10-an-obituary-xolrlrq

Сегодня в 13:44 МСК вторая по капитализации криптовалюта Ethereum пробила отметку $500. На момент написания поста Ethereum стоит $506,51, что не может не радовать всех поклонников и инвесторов криптовалюты Виталика Бутерина. Очевидно что такой рост цены спровоцировал перенос запуска новой сети Ethereum 2.0 с 3 января 2021 года на 1 декабря 2020. Похоже что будущие валидаторы интенсивно скупают эфир и заполняют смарт-контракт для запуска сети Beacon Chain.

Before the market crashed last month, I was day trading with ETH and had some short transactions. In the first one, I bought it at $264 and sold it at $265. In the second one, I purchased some ETH at $268 but refused to sell when it rose to $269 because I thought $270 is easily possible if I wait a few hours later. After that the whole market collapsed and ETH reached $160! I didn't panic and held it until today. I disagree with the statement that altcoins are directly following bitcoin because BTC has recovered 95% of its value but ETH is far behind its previous position at $269. I am still holding to unlock my capital from ETH but I don't know how long should I wait for this to happen. Why ETH doesn't rise with bitcoin? Is there any problem with this coin? I was thinking about selling my ETH and converting it to bitcoin to compensate losses through trading. Is it a better solution than HODL?

Single board nodes would sell themselves They are not free, but I am willing to go below asking price escrow available, btc payment preferred, eth accepted *notice: these registrations were made in good faith that the industry would create the need for hired help in the form of goods and services that are compatible with but outside the scope of the directive foundation I am looking to sell each of these to anyone or gift them to someone who is competent and wants to do something. The whole reason I bought these was that I figured I'd be able to situate myself into being able to use these by now to offer services to the public. But the problem is that I am all in on another project right now. The majority of the funds I get from selling this will go to supporting this other bitcoin-based project. The point of this post is not to badmouth ethereum and shill for this other project. There are some people who really still believe in ethereum and are able to use these names to the fullest. All in all, if you are interested in taking care of these, please reply or PM me with a proposal or a short statement of intention and I may just gift it to you. Otherwise, please send me your best offer using the services linked above, or reply to this post with an amt in btc that you are willing to pay. Make a public offer here and after the amount is agreed upon and the tx clears a Transfer Auth Code for name.com will be sent via pm to your bct account. At this point it is mostly first-come, first to pay basis, there is really no auction part of it. Instead of any of the other methods selling user-to-user here is preferred as I would like to have the payment be in bitcoin and not have a middle man with fees. Yet, if you would insist on using escrow of an active bct user with high acclaim that is acceptable as well. These are all registered at name.com and expire next month or March of this year. Obviously, if they do not sell, i will renew them as i have done for the last five almost six years for about $35 each. Therefore it is my hope that even if I gift you a domain, you manage to gift me back something of 0.02+btc value. Please forgive the crosspost *gTLDs are generic top-level domains. there is no .com at the end. These are supposed to help with search analytics and result in that the intention of the organization is the namespace above the registration. Theoretically, ethereum.computer should rank higher than ethereumcomputer.com when users want some kind of hardware.`

Blockchain technology has become very important in the automotive industry in general, where the past two years and has witnessed many tests of technology in this area. Five major carmakers - BMW, General Motors, Ford, Renault and Honda - will begin testing and pushing the vehicle identification system through blockchain technology next month in the United States. Nikkei Asian Review reported Monday (October 14th) that the partnership aims to test the vehicle identifier system developed under the Mobility Open Blockchain initiative. As part of the project, digital vehicle identifiers associated with the property, service history and portfolio are assigned to allow the vehicle to pay fees automatically without specialized equipment. The alliance is said to envisage the system applied to connected electric vehicles so that maintenance, maintenance and convenience purchases can be recorded, for example, and paid automatically when the vehicle is connected to charge its battery. Mercedes also began testing blockchain-based transactions in its own cars. In September of this year, Mercedes-Benz Daimler AG and mechanical engineering company Dürr AG conducted a blockchain-based trial on the Marco Polo business network for R3's Rchain software. In August of this year, the automaker also tested a blockchain-based drive-by-truck system in partnership with Frankfurt and Commerzbank.

Hi guys, Do you know what Ethereum gas is? Ethereum gas is a unit that measures the cost of computational effort such as completing a transaction or executing a smart contract. Priced in small denominations of Ether (ETH) called gwei, gas is used to allocate resources to the Ethereum virtual machine so contracts can self-execute easily. Everything you do in the Ethereum network costs gas and this gas translates to ETH. The Ether value will show the actual incentive a miner gets in exchange for completing a transaction within the network. Hence, gas is what miners consider when choosing whether or not they’ll do the computational work. As the one who’s requesting for computational work, you set the gas price to show how much you’re willing to pay for the requested work. The amount of gas you need depends on two major factors: * The complexity of your contract * The speed you want it finished If you’re willing to wait longer for a transaction to be completed, you can pay less gas. If you want the transaction to be completed as soon as possible, then you’ll need to pay more gas. Why does Ethereum use gas? Like any other network, Ethereum is vulnerable to overloading because of heavy usage and high traffic. Each operation requires a number of gas units to complete a transaction. The network can only compute a limited number of operations at a given time, and if left unattended, the number of requests can overwhelm the system and overload it. Miners get to pick which transaction they want to work on. However, as there are so many offers on the network, it’s hard for miners to choose. As a result, the network gets flooded with requests and time is wasted. To manage traffic and prevent the network from overloading, the gas system that consists of gas price and the gas limit was created. Instead of choosing at random, miners now rely on a user’s set gas price and gas limit to pick which transaction they would like to work on. This helps miners decide how to prioritize their work and optimize their working time. The gas shows the incentive the miner will receive in exchange for their service. The more complex the transaction, the more time it’ll take to complete. As a result, fees are higher to compensate for the intensive work. The opposite goes for simple transactions. All in all, the use of Ethereum gas can be summarized in these points: 1) Keeps the network from overloading by allocating resources 2) Helps miners decide how to prioritize their work 3) Keeps transactions from being too expensive Gwei, gas limits and gas price In understanding Ethereum gas, you have to know about its three main aspects: gwei, gas limit, and gas price. The transaction cost is the result of all three aspects. Gwei Gwei is a small unit of ETH used in calculating the operation cost and the miner’s incentive. It’s the unit attached to each gas unit, making it convertible to monetary incentives. 1 ETH is worth 1 billion gwei. Gwei is used to determine how much you’re willing to pay a miner in exchange for doing an operation. This means that the higher the fee, the more appealing it is to miners and the faster your operation will be done. Gas limit Gas limit is the range of gas units required in accomplishing all the necessary instructions in a transaction. It’s your guess at the total amount of work you’re requesting. This is how you provide fuel for all the necessary operations needed to finish your transaction. The one who wants the transaction completed is the one who sets the gas limit. Every single transaction done in the blockchain requires a certain number of gas units to go through. Setting the gas limit Basically, the more complex your transaction, the higher the gas limit. Finding out the specific gas limit can be hard, but there are applications or websites (e.g. ETH Gas Station and Ganache) that help determine the limit so you won’t have to do any computations for yourself. Complexity ↑ = Computational work ↑ = Fees ↑ = Gas limit ↑ You might think that it’s better to set the Ethereum gas limit high so you won’t risk failure, but in reality, it’s not. Every block on the Ethereum blockchain consists of a certain number of transactions with a maximum gas limit. Setting the limit unnecessarily high for a simple transaction only consumes space in a block that could’ve been occupied by other transactions. Typically, 21,000 gas is enough to satisfy most transactions. For more complex transactions, it can require a limit of 100,000 to 200,000 gas. Gas price If the gas limit tells how much you’re willing to pay for a transaction, then Ethereum gas price is how much you’re willing to pay per gas unit. The price of one unit of gas is expressed in ETH. When making an Ethereum transaction, you specify your gas price denominated in Gwei together with a gas limit. The average Ethereum gas price is determined by different factors on the network, including the demand for work. The higher the demand, the higher the price of gas, though you get to decide the gas price of your transaction. Remember - this is what miners consider when picking which work to do. The average gas price is approximately 20 gwei or 0.00000002 ETH. The price changes when there’s a high traffic and demand in the network, and there are more transactions competing to be included in the next block. Currently, the average gas price sits at 29.94 gas. Transaction cost The gas limit you set determines the amount of gas you’ll give the miner to complete a transaction. The average gas price is determined by the number of requested transactions, the number of transactions miners can handle, and the cost to handle one transaction. To get the total transaction cost, multiply the gas price by the gas limit. Ethereum as a supercomputer Ethereum is regarded as a groundbreaking technology for decentralizing contracts, with gas being what makes these smart contracts possible. It incentivizes miners and creates a system that prevents the network from overloading. With the gas concept and everything that comes with it, the Ethereum network has certainly managed to maintain its status as a supercomputer. Hopefully it was useful. Let me know if you have any thoughts or comments 🙂 Cheers, Karl Bitcasino.io

Installation instruction: https://gitlab.com/terafoundation/tera Requirements The Terahash algorithm based on sha3 and optimized RAM hashing function. At least you need a strong CPU (>4 Cores) and a lot of RAM (>8 GB). Good combinations of Cores / RAM are: 04 Cores /// 08 GB RAM 08 Cores /// 16 GB RAM 12 Cores /// 24 GB RAM 16 Cores /// 32 GB RAM For example: The Intel i7-4770K CPU have 4 cores and 8 threads. Starting the wallet Wait until the synchronization is complete - the green message Synchronization complete should appear. Below, when you start first time, two fields will appear: name and adviser. Enter the code of the adviser (if you have one), enter account name and click the Create button. After about 8 seconds, the account creation transaction will fit in the blockchain and you will have an open account where you can mine the coins. Solving connection problems 1. Check the presence of a direct ip-address (order from the provider) 2. Check if the port is routed from the router to your computer 3. Check the firewall (port must open on the computer) Referral mining program In the first year of the network work (when the number of the block is in the range from 2 mln to 30 mln), the referral program of mining works. If the miner indicated an adviser in his wallet, then he gets about twice the size of the reward, and his adviser receives a one-time reward. Thus, at the beginning of the action of the referral program, the emission is roughly tripled. Technically, an adviser is an account number. Any account can become an adviser, provided that it was created more than 1 mln blocks ago (i.e. approximately 12 days). In order to smooth out the emission curve, the award for referral mining is multiplied by a factor that assumes a value from 1 to 0. The factor takes the value equal to 1 at the beginning of the program and smoothly changes to 0 at the end of the program (up to 30 millionth block). Transfer your coins "bank like" The coins are kept in accounts by analogy with bank accounts. The accounts are numbered from 0 sequentially. The zero account number is for system account, to which initially 1 bln coins were issued. To create new account you need to send to the network special transaction ACCOUNT_CREATE where you need to specify a public key of the account owner and unnecessary characteristic “name of account” (a line with length up to 40 bytes). It is advisable to specify the name to check the correctness of the account number input when sending the payment.

It isn't Bitcoin's companion protocols like Lightning Network nor Liquid Network that currently has more widespread off-chain uses of BTC itself, but ETH, a rival altcoin, according to this article. https://www.coindesk.com/ethereum-has-become-bitcoins-top-off-chain-destination (For an idea of what is an off-chain transaction, check out this link.) Shouldn't Bitcoin's native protocols be the ones to have preeminence over other alternatives? Why have this happened? Does the Bitcoin Lightning Network and others not performing as well as ETH's 'tokenized BTC', or is Ethereum's flexibility proving to be the greater asset? Apparently, it's both, if the article is interpreted this way. Now that Ethereum has made it apparent that it is the users' better choice when it comes to off-chain applications, will we see some changes and improvements on the Lightning Network in the following days, or will they continue on in their current path of "a narrower focus of improving the speed and privacy of small and large off-chain bitcoin transactions" as the article says? We'll see.

Комиссия за транзакции Ethereum вернулась к норме после нескольких месяцев рекордных максимумов. Это может быть признаком того, что пузырь DeFi может закончиться. Стоимость газа снизилась более чем на 80% Плата за газ Ethereum была предметом обсуждения в криптосообществе, и в последние месяцы сборы достигли рекордных высот. Трейдерам приходилось платить высокие комиссии за транзакции, при этом средняя комиссия за транзакцию Ethereum в сентябре достигла рекордно высокого уровня в 12 долларов. Также предполагается, что в сентябре на комиссию за транзакции было потрачено 166 миллионов долларов. Однако в сети Ethereum может произойти возврат к нормальной жизни. По данным аналитической фирмыGlassnode совокупная комиссия, полученная майнерами в сети Ethereum, за последние три недели снизилась на 86,2%. Это с 42 763 ETH, зарегистрированных 17 сентября, до 5 898, зарегистрированных вчера 4 октября. Кроме того, средняя комиссия за транзакцию упала с пикового значения почти в 12 долларов в сентябре до 2,1 доллара. Кроме того, количество транзакций снизилось примерно на 29,2% (935000) по сравнению с пиковым уровнем 2020 года в 1,32 миллиона 17 сентября, в то время как общая сумма транзакций упала с 6,5 миллионов эфиров до 1,7 миллиона эфиров за этот период. DeFi Hype отступает Недавний скачок платы за газ Ethereum в значительной степени был вызван быстрым ростом сектора децентрализованного финансирования (DeFi). В последние три месяца наблюдается экспоненциальный рост интереса к этому сектору. В течение этого времени такие платформы, как Uniswap, Curve и Saved, получали трафик от криптоэнтузиастов, желающих обналичить новые активы. Этот значительный трафик повлиял на Ethereum, поскольку большинство этих платформ построено в его сети. Сеть Ethereum способна обрабатывать только ограниченное количество транзакций и может принимать только 10-14 транзакций в секунду. Майнеры выиграли, потому что в этот период быстро возросла конкуренция за блочное пространство, что привело к увеличению платы за газ. Шумиха вокруг новых проектов также снизилась, поскольку все больше криптоинвесторов опасаются проектов Defi с сомнительными финансовыми моделями. Во многом это стало причиной недавнего резкого падения тарифов на газ. С приходом Ethereum 2.0 многие криптоэнтузиасты надеются, что переход на новый протокол предотвратит скачок платы за газ в будущем.

The high price of Bitcoin was a giant on Friday and Saturday. During an 18-hour period, the leading cryptocurrency traded within a range of $ 3,300 in one-day earnings and earnings were estimated at 42% when the price reached a peak of $ 10,500. With the wave and interest of people searching for bitcoin on Google, in which the term bitcoin was among the most searched terms on Google this week alongside some common search terms, and after one of the biggest one-day gains in the history of emerging financial assets, you could have The field and the cryptocurrency market in the end, ready to regain the attention of the mainstream audience? Despite this undeniable upward movement, which was in fact the fourth largest in Bitcoin's entire history and the largest since 2011, there are some signs that bears still have some strength in the market. https://www.cryptoarabe.com/2019/10/27/-bitcoin/

source: https://www.coindesk.com/ethereum-outpaces-bitcoin-developer-activity-2020-electric-capital-report As the very depressing Year 2020 is coming to a close, there should be now a number of year-end reports being published on various websites. One such report was made by a venture firm called Electric Capital where they stated that there are more developers joining Ethereum, the #2 ranked cryptocurrency, compared to Bitcoin, the current #1. The full report by Electric Capital can be seen on this separate article: https://medium.com/electric-capital/electric-capital-developer-report-2020-9417165c6444 DeFi has played a significant role in the compilation of the report, as we know of the hype surrounding it during recent months. Developers have sniffed an opportunity to earn huge, and they did so. The article also supports this notion to some degree. Ethereum is hogging the crypto developers. How does the other coins fare so far? According to the article, "Ethereum, Bitcoin, Polkadot, Tezos, Cardano and EOS" are the top ones on the report. If your favorite altcoin is not on that list, then the chance is high that it did not acquired as much developers as the listed ones. With such a lot of developers, it won't be a surprise then if there is a news published in the future where even more developers are building projects based on ETH 2.0. Meanwhile, Bitcoin projects may slow down as there are fewer developers that would want to focus more on it. What do you think? For more details, please read the linked articles above.

На днях глава комиссии по торговле товарными фьючерсами заявил, что если Эфириум перейдет на алгоритм майнинга Proof-of-Stake, его можно расценивать как ценную бумагу! Так как механизм стекинга планируемый командой проэкта, может подпасть под закон о ценных бумагах! Цитата: "Механизм Proof-of-Stake подразумевает существование нод, осуществляющих стекинг монет для получения права на выпуск блоков. Сервисы по стекингу обещают доход с инвестиций в криптовалюту и потенциально могут нарушать тест Хауи по признаку наличия совместного предприятия и инвестиционного контракта." Напомню что обновление Эфириум 2.0 планирует в конечном итоге полностью перейти с майнинга на ГПУ, на майнинг валидаторами, постепенно снижая награду ГПУ майнерам в пользу валидаторов с каждым новым обновлением! Теперь же когда регуляторы не одобрили этот переход, он наверняка будет идти с еще большим скипом чем раньше. Ведь если эфириум признают ценной бумагой, он будет удален со всех криптовалютных бирж и станет крайне сложен для инвестирования большинством пользователей! Для ГПУ майнеров же это можно считать хорошей новостью, так как задержка перехода на стейк, позволит добывать эфир на ГПУ более продолжительное время чем планировалось! Помайним эфир еще пару лет, как думаете? Ссылка на источник https://cryptowiki.ru/news/ethereum-2-0-mogyt-priznat-cennoi-bymagoi.html

According to Sources I Got Data from December 2018 shows that there are 851,662 Indonesian investors who have stock assets. While data from Indodax there are already 4 million Indonesians who have Cryptocurrency Assets such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tezos and others. Of course this data is very surprising because the Indonesian stock market which has stood for decades can be contested by cryptocurrency which only appeared in recent years.

Today, I read a news in Coindesk.com about Ethereum in China. It is said that Chinese government has used its firewall to block one of the most prominent source of ETH blockchain data which is etherscan.io wesbite. This censorship has started since October 30, 2019 and now Chinese users can't access this website with their Chinese IP addresses. This is a bad news because it seems that it is possible to ban or limit crypto activity by blocking some websites and making it hard for most crypto users to stay active. This is a fight between centralization and decentralization in China. It is still unknown why this censorship has been done. I think this is another attempt to control cryptocurrency. ETH users in China can still use other websites but this website was a useful source for them.
