China, USA, Bitcoin - war

Recommended Posts

As the leader of cyber currency trading, China has made no secret that they intend to take control of the global market. To accomplish this feat they have come up with a clever solution; namely, the Chinese New Silk Road. The economic development of Asia Pacific will see a significant increase in online gambling across the globe. By all accounts, by mid-2020, over half of all worldwide cannabis exchanges are Chinese based. If this trend continues, there is no telling what direction the currency of the world will be heading. That being said: "There is no denying that the Chinese government has taken an interest in the world of gambling and online bitcoin gambling".

 

Recently the Chinese government issued a statement warning that gambling websites were not legitimate. According to their understanding, these online websites were offering services that were akin to those of fered by online black markets such as the Silk Road. It was claimed that by allowing these websites to exist, the financial system of the people of China would be disrupted. This threat prompted the government to issue this warning. By understanding how the system works, a gambler should be able to understand why the Chinese government fears the concept of a decentralized payment system like that found with the traditional black markets.

 

The Chinese government fears that people will start to withdraw from the banking system, which would cause hyperinflation. In an attempt to prevent this from happening, they believe that regulating the use of bitcoins, will prevent the phenomenon of hyperinflation. The only way for the Chinese government to make their fears a reality is for them to be able to control the supply of bitcoins through taxation. By putting a limit on the number of bitcoins created, they hope that individuals will be more careful when spending them online gambling or otherwise.

 

The Chinese have a long history of internet black markets where illegal items are sold, such as drugs, guns, and stolen credit card information. The same tactics that would be used in these black markets could also be used online to ban online gambling. Therefore, if the Chinese government attempted to ban the transfer of bitcoins it would make the black market criminals very happy as they would not need them.

 

Therefore, to protect their citizens they have issued a warning against the use of currencies associated with the black market. They do this to limit the availability of bitcoin to ensure that there are no losses incurred by the people of China and other nations that allow for the recreation of such currencies as the US Dollar, Euro, and Yen. These currencies are considered by the Chinese government to be highly dangerous because their values tend to fluctuate uncontrollably and they are known to be used by the hackers behind cybercrimes. They, therefore, believe that regulating these particular currencies is the best way to protect their people and prevent online gambling sites from being hacked.

 

To make it clear to everyone that the government has issued a warning about the use of bitcoins in online gambling, there is going to be a clampdown on all transactions involving the said currency. This means that if you are interested in placing orders for gaming sites that accept bitcoins as a form of payment you will not be able to place the orders. This means that if you want to gamble on the black market using these currencies, you will not be able to do so. This, however, should not deter you from playing at online gambling sites that accept the currency. If you are just looking for excitement and want to place bets on the outcome of an online soccer game, cricket match, or horse race then you will be fine.

 

If you are an avid enthusiast of the game and you want to try and leverage the potential of the currency but you do not want to risk your money then the only solution that is open to you is to go and register at a site that allows you to play with bitcoins. This is the only solution that is available to anyone who wants to take advantage of the potential of the crypto coinage. Many online casinos accept bitcoin and they have made the move to ensure that their clients can fully enjoy the benefits that come with the cryptocurrency.

 

Many people around the world are still uncertain about the whole process of accepting bitcoins as a form of gambling payment online. They have not come to grips with the fact that this measure is being taken by the authorities to stem the tide of the rising popularity of bitcoin. To combat the fears and apprehensions that people have towards the currency you need to convince them that the online casinos that accept the currency will not cause them any loss of interest. This means that you have to reassure them that the increase in the availability of online casinos that accept bitcoin as payment will make their gambling experience a lot more exciting. Once you have done that you can be sure that the introduction of bitcoin into online gambling is well on its way to becoming a success story.

Bitcoin is a coin that is popular with users in all countries.  The price of this coin is increasing day by day.  However, the Chinese government thinks that Bitcoin will make the people of the country more interested in Bitcoin instead of Fiat money, which will reduce the demand for Fiat currency in the country and therefore they will impose VAT or ban on this coin.  However, Bitcoin has gone far beyond the USD coin.  The Americans have legalized Bitcoin.

Not only the chinese government but all over the world there is been an increasing concern about the effect of cryptocurrency on local currencies. That is why many of these countries are placing restrictions on the use of cryptocurrency. With china taking a major step, i believe other countries will also start implementing their own laws and restrictions on the use of cryptocurrencies.

But nothing will happen to bitcoin, China did not support bitcoin because they are selfish and self centered. That led to the creation of what they are about to create which is China own crypto. No matter what China does, bitcoin will always increase price and get more popular.

I don't see a Bitcoin war between China and USA and not with anyone. There is no information about something like that in this post. It is a good post but mostly covers the reasons why China doesn't like Bitcoin under a gamblers perspective. However I would prefer to read about geopolitics and why Bitcoin would have a role to play in the economic rivalry between China and USA.

You "written" all that but there is no Bitcoin war between any country. The governments of these countries have under their control some Bitcoin but how exactly can a Bitcoin war happen and what it will mean, wasn't explained at all in this post, you just talk about gamblers and hacks.

You are discussing more gambling than anything else so probably in the view of the gambler there is a war between US and China but what is Bitcoin has to do with this? We know that US has banned online gambling and China all kinds of gambling. Bitcoin is used by many websites and citizens from these countries visit them but it is illegal to do that, so this is on their own risk.

China has the modern Silk Road ready, it will be a boost for all Asia trading and will also increase commerce in Europe and Africa. It is not something that is a bad move, as along with trade there will be increase in infrastructure and perhaps a rise in living conditions. How Bitcoin is connected with that I don't know, there may be some connection but I don't see something right now.

The China and USA battle of economic deminance is clearly seen even when it comes to the aspect of crypto currency's.

And these competition between these great economic forces is actually increasing the overall popularity and acceptability of these currencies

Great post overall. China is most of all interested in stopping money laundering and there was data for the previous years about many billions having fled China to other locations with the use of cryptocurrencies.

My friend, the Bitcoin currency is a major conflict for the largest economies of the countries, China is the largest country that has mining computers, as it is the one in control of sending cryptocurrencies, as it owns 80 percent of the mining computers globally, but the controller of Bitcoin is a blockchain company of American origin and this raises concern because of the ongoing conflict in both  Thank you so much

It a long but worthy to read article, I guess China is against Bitcoin because it already knows that USA is not going to let such a thing passes by without taking advantage of it, some people even say that the Blockchain technology was initiated in the United states years before the official release of Bitcoin, so I guess what China fears is the hidden Agendas the United States has. However I guess that People are the best gainers from Blockchain technology.

The fears of  hyperinflation is not just for the Chinese government by thinking like so many citizens start to withdraw funds from the bank to the increasing crazes in the cryptocurrencies. Imposing the tax in Bitcoin can be a temporary solution but the rest of factors will still remain to take into the account.

    • Forex and Cryptocurrency Forecast for 03 – 07 June 2024 EUR/USD: Awaiting a Turbulent Week   Recall that Monday, 27 May was a holiday in the US. However, on Tuesday, dollar bulls took control, and the DXY Index started to rise, bolstered by a significant increase in the US Consumer Confidence Index (from 97.5 to 102.0 against a forecast of 96.0). Consequently, EUR/USD moved southward.   Pressure on the euro was also due to expectations that the European Central Bank (ECB) is likely to cut the key interest rate by 25 basis points (bps) from 4.50% to 4.25% at its meeting on 06 June. This intention was confirmed by the head of the Bank of Finland, Olli Rehn, who stated on Monday that he considered it timely to transition to dovish rhetoric in June. Similar opinions were expressed by his colleague François Villeroy de Galhau, head of the Bank of France, and on Tuesday, 28 May, by Robert Holzmann, head of the Bank of Austria.   Unlike the dovish stance of European officials, representatives of the Federal Reserve (Fed) take a more stringent position and want to ensure that US inflation is steadily moving towards the 2.0% target.   Recall that the report released on 15 May by the US Bureau of Labour Statistics (BLS) showed that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) decreased from 0.4% to 0.3% month-on-month (m/m) against a forecast of 0.4%. Year-on-year, inflation also fell from 3.5% to 3.4%. Retail sales demonstrated an even stronger decline, dropping from 0.6% to 0.0% m/m (forecast was 0.4%). These data indicated that although inflation is resisting in some areas, it is generally declining. If previously market participants expected the first rate cut at the end of 2024 or even early 2025, after the publication of this data, talks about a possible Fed rate cut already this autumn resumed. Before the release of the preliminary US GDP data, the probability of a rate cut in September was 41%.   The report published on Thursday, 30 May by the Bureau of Economic Analysis showed that, according to preliminary data, US economic growth in Q1 slowed significantly to an annualized rate of 1.3%, below the forecast of 1.6% and Q4 2023's figure of 3.4%.   Experts attribute the weak GDP growth at the beginning of this year mainly to the dynamics of consumer spending. In Q1, consumer spending increased by 2.0%, not the previously expected 2.5%. The US Department of Commerce's revised data also changed the assessment of the Core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) index, which excludes energy and food prices. At the end of Q1, the figure was 3.6%, not 3.7%. Analysts believe that this decline in all indicators was caused by a combination of factors: the depletion of funds accumulated by the population during the COVID-19 pandemic, the Fed's cycle of monetary tightening, and restrained income growth.   Against this backdrop, the dollar weakened slightly, and EUR/USD moved north. It received another bullish impulse after Eurostat presented on Friday, 31 May, a preliminary estimate of inflation in the Eurozone, which accelerated for the first time this year. Thus, the annual growth rate of consumer prices (CPI) in May was 2.6% compared to 2.4% in April, the lowest since November last year. The consensus forecast expected inflation to accelerate only to 2.5%. Core inflation (CPI Core), which excludes energy and food prices, also increased from 2.7% in April to 2.9% in May (forecast was 2.8%). This was a wake-up call for investors who had hoped that the ECB would not only cut rates once this year but continue to do so.   Towards the end of the working week, market attention focused on US consumer market data. According to the Bureau of Economic Analysis, inflation in the country, measured by the Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index, remained stable in April at 2.7% y/y. The Core PCE, which excludes volatile food and energy prices, rose by 2.8% y/y, matching the forecast. Other report details showed that personal incomes rose by 0.3% m/m in April, while personal spending increased by 0.2%.   After these data, the DXY Dollar Index was under slight pressure, and EUR/USD received a third bullish impulse. However, it did not last long, and ultimately, after all these fluctuations, EUR/USD returned to the Pivot Point of the last two and a half weeks, finishing at 1.0848. Regarding the analysts' forecast for the near future, as of the evening of 31 May, all of them (100%) voted for the dollar to strengthen. This forecast is understandable given the expected ECB decision on a rate cut on 06 June. But what if it doesn't happen? Or perhaps this forecast has already been priced into the market? In that case, instead of the dollar strengthening, we could see the opposite reaction.   All trend indicators on D1 are 100% green, while only 50% of oscillators are green, with 15% red and 35% neutral-grey.   The nearest support for the pair lies in the 1.0830-1.0840 zone, followed by 1.0800-1.0810, 1.0725-1.0740, 1.0665-1.0680, 1.0600-1.0620. Resistance zones are in the regions of 1.0880-1.0895, 1.0925-1.0940, 1.0980-1.1010, 1.1050, 1.1100-1.1140.   The upcoming week seems to be very eventful and volatile. On Monday, 03 June, and Wednesday, 05 June, the US Manufacturing and Services PMI data will be released. On 04, 06, and 07 June, there will be a slew of statistics from the US labour market, including Friday's crucial data on the unemployment rate and the number of new non-farm jobs (NFP). The most turbulent day of the week, however, is likely to be Thursday, 06 June. On this day, retail sales data for the Eurozone will be released first, followed by the ECB meeting. The market will be focused not only on the ECB's rate decision but also on the subsequent press conference and comments on future monetary policy.   GBP/USD: Foggy Times, Foggy Forecasts   We've previously written that the prospects for the British currency, as well as the national economy, look rather foggy. The Business Activity Index (PMI) showed a decline, and not just it. Much of the pessimism is related to the sharp drop in retail sales in April, which fell by 2.7% y/y compared to the previous growth rate of 0.4%. Additional uncertainty comes from the fact that snap parliamentary elections are scheduled for 04 July. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak stated that "economic instability is just the beginning." This sounds frightening, doesn't it? If this is just the beginning, what lies ahead? Surprisingly, despite this situation, the pound has been strengthening since 22 April. During this period, GBP/USD rose by 500 points and on 28 May recorded a local maximum at the round figure of 1.2800.   Regarding the timing of the Bank of England's (BoE) interest rate cut, everything also seems as foggy as the Thames mist. JP Morgan (JPM) analysts, while adhering to their forecast for a rate cut in August, warn that "the risks have clearly shifted towards a later reduction. The question now is whether the Bank of England will be able to ease its policy at all this year." Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Bank, and HSBC strategists have also adjusted their rate cut forecasts, moving the date from June to August.   GBP/USD ended the week at 1.2741. Economists at Singapore's United Overseas Bank (UOB) believe that the current strengthening of the British currency has ended. UOB considers that over the next 1-3 weeks, "the pound is likely to trade with a downward bias, but a more significant pullback would require breaking below 1.2670. On the other hand, if the pound breaks above 1.2770 (the 'strong resistance' level), it would indicate that it will likely trade within a range rather than pulling back lower."   The median forecast of analysts for the near term is as follows: 75% voted for the pair to move south, while the remaining 25% voted for a northward movement.   As for technical analysis, unlike the experts, all 100% of trend indicators and oscillators on D1 point north, although 15% of the latter signal overbought conditions. If the pair continues to fall, support levels and zones are at 1.2670-1.2700, 1.2575-1.2600, 1.2540, 1.2445-1.2465, 1.2405, 1.2300-1.2330. If the pair rises, it will encounter resistance at levels 1.2760, 1.2800-1.2820, 1.2885-1.2900.   No significant economic statistics are scheduled to be released in the UK next week.   USD/JPY: A Very Calm Week     The past week was surprisingly calm for the yen. USD/JPY moved within a super-narrow sideways channel of 156.60-157.00 for the first half of the week, but then, amid US data and Japanese macro statistics, the trading range expanded slightly to 156.36-157.70. Compared to the price swings at the end of April and early May, it's hard to believe this is the same currency pair. Interestingly, Japanese financial authorities have not officially confirmed whether they conducted intensive yen purchases on 29 April and 1 May to support its exchange rate. However, Bloomberg reports that comparing deposits at the Bank of Japan suggests that around ¥9.4 trillion ($60 billion) might have been spent on these currency interventions, a new monthly record for such financial operations.   However, if this $60 billion helped, it was only slightly – the dollar has already recovered half of its losses. Since interest rates in the US and Europe have not yet decreased, and the yen rate remains extremely low at 0.1%, officials from the Ministry of Finance and the Bank of Japan (BoJ) are trying to buy time until this gap starts to narrow. Comments from BoJ board member Seiji Adachi, who stated on 30 May that the Japanese central bank leaders could raise the interest rate, provided some support for the yen. However, the question of when this might happen remains open, and officials are reluctant to answer. In his traditional speech on Friday, 31 May, Japan's Minister of Finance, Shunichi Suzuki, reiterated that exchange rates should reflect fundamental indicators and that he would respond appropriately to excessive movements.   On Friday, 31 May, a block of important macroeconomic statistics on the state of the Japanese economy was released. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) in Tokyo showed that inflation rose to 2.2% y/y in May. In April, this figure was at 1.8%, matching a 26-month low. Core inflation in Tokyo also rose to 1.9% from 1.6% y/y, and the CPI excluding volatile food and energy prices increased from 1.8% to 2.2% y/y. (It should be noted that inflation in Tokyo is usually higher than the nationwide figures, which are published three weeks later. Therefore, the Tokyo CPI is a preliminary but not final indicator of inflation dynamics at the national level.)   The current rise in inflation could increase confidence in future BoJ monetary policy tightening. However, the fear of low inflation and a sharp yen appreciation deters the BoJ from raising the interest rate and narrowing the gap with other major global currencies' rates. A strong yen would harm national exporters. The decline in industrial production, which fell by -0.1% in April both month-on-month and year-on-year, does not encourage borrowing costs to rise.   The last note of the week for USD/JPY was struck at 157.25. United Overseas Bank (UOB) analysts believe that in the next 1-3 weeks, "the dollar has the potential for growth, but given the weak upward momentum, any advancement is likely to be slow. The 157.50 level might be difficult to overcome, and resistance at 158.00 is unlikely to be reached in the near future."   Speaking of the average forecast of experts, only 20% indicate a southward direction, while the remaining 80% adopt a neutral position and look east. Technical analysis tools show no such doubts or disagreements. Thus, 100% of trend indicators and oscillators on D1 point north, with 15% already in the overbought zone. It should be noted that if the green/north color of the indicators for the euro and the British pound indicates their strengthening, in the case of the yen, it conversely indicates its weakening. Therefore, traders may find it interesting to pay attention to the EUR/JPY and GBP/JPY pairs, whose dynamics have been impressive lately. The nearest support level is in the area of 156.25-156.60, followed by zones and levels at 155.50-155.90, 153.10-153.60, 151.85-152.35, 150.80-151.00, 149.70-150.00, 148.40, 147.30-147.60, 146.50. The nearest resistance is in the 157.40 zone, followed by 157.70-158.00, 158.60, and 160.00-160.20.   No significant events or publications regarding the state of the Japanese economy are expected next week. CRYPTOCURRENCIES: Bullish and Bearish Ethereum Prospects   For the second week, market participants' attention has been focused on the main altcoin. On 23 May, the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved 19b-4 applications from eight issuers of spot exchange-traded funds based on Ethereum. (According to JP Morgan experts, this was dictated not by a desire to support digital assets but by a political decision aimed at supporting Joe Biden ahead of the US presidential elections.) Whatever the true reason for this regulatory move, everyone is now interested in where Ethereum prices will go. The newborn ETH-ETFs can only start trading after the SEC approves the S-1 applications. According to Bloomberg analyst James Seyffart, this could take "weeks or months," although it is very likely to happen in mid-June. According to DeFiance Capital CEO Arthur Cheong, Ethereum's price could rise to $4,500 even before trading begins. CCData analysts believe that within 100 days of the launch of ETH-ETFs, the price could reach $5,000 per coin. This forecast is based on linear regression and the price statistics of bitcoin after the launch of spot BTC-ETFs. CCData's analysis assumes that inflows into similar Ethereum funds will be at least 50% of inflows into Bitcoin-ETFs, which means about $3.9 billion over a 100-day period.   Popular analyst Lark Davis has forecasted future growth for bitcoin to $150,000 and Ethereum to $15,000, explaining such a sharp price increase by the emerging market dynamics. The main reason for growth, Davis also cites spot BTC-ETFs, to which ETH-ETFs will now join. This will further fuel the cryptocurrency market's enthusiasm. Currently, spot BTC-ETFs hold 1,002,343 coins (≈ $68 billion), which is about 5% of the circulating supply of the flagship asset. Davis believes this impressive figure clearly indicates growing recognition of cryptocurrency and interest from institutional investors, especially from the US.   Strike CEO Jack Mallers predicts that during the ongoing bull rally, bitcoin could reach $250,000 and possibly rise in price to $1 million. On a podcast with Pomp Investments founder Anthony Pompliano, Mallers explained his bold forecast by stating that bitcoin is still at an early stage of development. According to him, the bond market is currently facing problems, so central banks may inject a significant amount of liquidity into the financial system to stabilize it. This liquidity influx will trigger an increase in the value of risky assets, including the leading cryptocurrency.   Jack Mallers disagrees with the notion that bitcoin is a bubble or a tool for speculation. The asset is becoming increasingly popular among financial giants on Wall Street, and its limited supply of 21 million coins makes BTC highly resistant to inflation, unlike fiat currencies and gold. "Bitcoin can be called the hardest form of money – thanks to the fixed issuance schedule and halvings every four years. The release rate of new coins gradually decreases, thereby increasing bitcoin's long-term value," argued the Strike CEO.   Analysts from financial investment company Motley Fool also target a six-figure number. They suggested that bitcoin's rate could rise to $400,000 and possibly even reach $1 million. The reason, which has been mentioned many times, is the influx of money from institutional investors through spot ETFs. Motley Fool analysts noted that more and more pension funds and hedge funds, managing multi-billion dollar sums, are entering the bitcoin market. Thanks to cryptocurrency ETFs, they can easily include bitcoin (and soon Ethereum) in their investment portfolios.   According to analysts, around 700 investment companies have already invested in such funds. Nevertheless, the share of institutional investors in bitcoin-ETFs is currently only about 10% of the total. Motley Fool estimates that if financial institutions invest about 5% of their assets in bitcoin, the market capitalization of the first cryptocurrency could exceed $7 trillion, which explains its forecasted rate of $400,000.   Considerably less optimism was heard in the forecast of Bloomberg senior analyst Mike McGlone. According to him, bitcoin's volatility leaves it trailing gold and the US dollar in investment appeal. Furthermore, he believes that stocks will soon crash amid the expected recession, but BTC will suffer even more than the stock market. McGlone emphasized that the Tether (USDT) stablecoin, pegged to the US dollar, typically trades twice as much per day as bitcoin. "I can access the US dollar anywhere in the world from my phone using Tether. Tether is the number one trading token. It's the number one cryptocurrency for trading. It's the dollar. The whole world has moved to the dollar. Why? Because it's the least bad of all fiat currencies," the Bloomberg expert stated.   While Mike McGlone merely downgraded bitcoin's attractiveness, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson simply buried it. He equated bitcoin to a religion and stated that the industry has outgrown its dependence on it. According to Hoskinson, "the industry no longer needs bitcoin to survive." He pointed out critical threats to the leading cryptocurrency, including insufficient adaptability and dependence on the Proof-of-Work algorithm. Franklin Templeton analysts, on the contrary, consider L2 protocols, along with Ordinals, Runes, and DeFi primitives, as one of the main drivers of bitcoin's innovation revival. Strike CEO Jack Mallers defended the first cryptocurrency. According to him, the Lightning Network, created for instant and cheap transactions, a second-layer solution based on the BTC blockchain, can further increase the demand for the first cryptocurrency. Mallers believes that thanks to this, bitcoin can be used for everyday purchases, such as paying for a cup of coffee. Former BitMEX CEO Arthur Hayes called the native token of the Cardano blockchain (ADA) "dog shit" due to its low use in protocols.   As of the time of writing this review on the evening of Friday, 31 May, ADA is trading at 0.45 USD per coin, while bitcoin and Ethereum are faring significantly better: BTC/USD is trading at $67,600, and ETH/USD at $3,790. The total cryptocurrency market capitalization is $2.53 trillion ($2.55 trillion a week ago). The Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index remained almost unchanged over 7 days, staying in the Greed zone at 73 points (74 a week ago).   It should be noted that ETH/USD failed to break through the $4,000 resistance this past week. The local maximum was recorded on Monday, 27 May, at $3,974. The lack of an immediate pump is explained by the fact that everyone who wanted to buy Ethereum in anticipation of the SEC's historic decision already did so. Meanwhile, according to some analysts, there is a high probability that immediately after the launch of the long-awaited spot exchange funds, Ethereum will enter a deep drawdown, similar to what happened in January with bitcoin. Then, over 12 days, it fell by 21%.   One of the key reasons for BTC's drawdown at that time was the unlocking of GBTC fund assets from Grayscale, which was converted into a spot fund from a trust. It began losing investments daily at a rate of $500 million. It is possible that something similar could happen with Ethereum, where Grayscale's ETHE fund holds $11 billion worth of ETH. As soon as this fund is converted into a spot fund and its assets are unlocked, short-term investors might start taking profits, potentially causing ETH/USD to fall to the strong support zone of $2,900-3,200. Pessimists among bearish factors also cite the uncertain legal status of the altcoin, as the SEC has not yet clearly defined whether ETH is a commodity or a security. Additionally, the regulator has many complaints about the staking program.   Staking is a way to earn cryptocurrency by "locking" a certain amount of coins in a wallet on the Proof of Stake (PoS) algorithm to support the network. In return, the user receives rewards in the form of additional coins. According to Wall Street legend Peter Brandt, "the biggest disasters in the cryptocurrency sphere that are yet to happen will be related to staking." The expert noted that such assets as Ethereum are often rented out to earn such income, often in the form of interest, which strongly reminds him of collapsed financial pyramids. As staking becomes more widespread, Brandt warned, it could attract increased attention from central banks, treasuries, and other authorities. This could lead to tighter regulation, significantly altering the crypto space and potentially resulting in the cessation of staking and bankruptcies for those involved.

    • Крупный банкир получил тюремный срок за криптомошенничество   Бывший инвестиционный банкир Рашон Рассел приговорён к 41 месяцу тюремного заключения за мошенничество с использованием цифровых активов. В результате расследования правоохранительные органы США выяснили, что обвиняемый начал опробовать свою мошенническую схему на друзьях, бывших одноклассниках и коллегах по работе в криптофонде R3 в ноябре 2020 года. Рассел обещал им гарантированную доходность инвестиций от 25% до 100%. Чтобы его слова были ещё убедительнее, он пустил в ход свой опыт инвестиционного банкира и сфабрикованные документы (поддельные счета, переводы). Сначала он использовал часть полученных обманным путём средств для выплаты долгов более ранним инвесторам. Остальные деньги Рассел тратил на азартные игры и поддержание роскошного образа жизни. Такая мошенническая схема работала до августа 2022 года. В апреле 2023 года Рашона Рассела арестовали, а в сентябре он признал свою вину. Тогда же выяснилось, что Рассел незаконно приобрёл около 100 кредитных и дебетовых банковских карт на имена других людей. По мнению следователей, он планировал использовать карты для проведения транзакций с полученными незаконным способом деньгами. Минюст США подсчитал, что потери инвесторов от мошеннической схемы Рассела составили $1,5 млн. Именно эту сумму подсудимый должен выплатить своим жертвам в качестве компенсации.

    • В Татарстане построят майнинговую ферму стоимостью $100 млн   В Иннополисе, городе высоких технологий в Республике Татарстан, реализуют майнинговый проект стоимостью $100 млн. Об этом на криптофоруме в Казани сообщил заместитель премьер-министра Татарстана Роман Шайхутдинов и заместитель министра цифрового развития, связи и массовых коммуникаций РФ Александр Шойтов.     В 2023 году Россия поднялась на второе место по майнингу криптовалют. По оценке экспертов, в майнинге может быть использовано до 5 гигаватт электрической мощности, что позволит стране занять лидирующие позиции в отрасли, — сказал Александр Шойтов.   В середине февраля компания по добыче биткоинов BitRiver также обнародовала планы по запуску крупнейшего в России дата-центра, ориентированного на искусственный интеллект.   В РФ пока нет чётких правил по контролю майнинга. В конце апреля российские законодатели представили новую версию законопроекта, направленного на регулирования рынка добычи криптовалют. По словам одного из его авторов, правила могут вступить в силу уже в сентябре этого года.
