🗞 World’s First Ethereum-based eSports Platform Launched
The eSports industry has posted a 41% year-on-year market growth, according to the 2017 Newzoo annual report, making it hard to ignore. Similarly, you would be hard-pressed to find a major industry that Blockchain technology isn’t disrupting. In that light, World of Battles represents the ideal merger between the emerging industries of Blockchain and eSports.

They come with many shortcomings ranging from streaming interruptions to long waiting periods for processing the betting transactions.

🗞 Bernanke at Ripple Event: Blockchain Has 'Obvious' Benefits in Payments
Speaking at Ripple's Swell conference in Toronto today, being held the same week and in the same city as Sibos, the annual gathering hosted by Ripple's rival Swift, Bernanke told a room of several hundred attendees that he believes payments can be slow and expensive as designed using existing tools today.
Bernanke said:
"It could be a lack of imagination, but I don't think monetary policy has changed that much. Central banks are supportive of these new technologies because they'll improve the payment system ... but it won't affect the ability of the Fed to require a certain amount of reserves of affect interest rates."

🗞 Top 3 Obvious ICO Scams
Opair
The Opair ICO was one of the earliest noted scams in ICO history happening back in 2016. They raised more than $1M with the promise of decentralized debit cards.
BitCad

Authorship
Authorship was an ERC20 token that raised $1M with the promise of creating a system for writers, translators and journalists to earn and exchange ATS tokens for their works.

BTC Trading Update by @cryptopassion
Nothing really new on the BITCOIN, we are doing little up and down between the 2 long term lines. We are clearly in waiting and consolidation mode :
However, when I was double checking the long term support line and the long term resistance line, look which pattern I found
A beautiful triangle which has been tested but not broken. This triangle is pointing up which means that in most of the case we have a DOWN break out.
Did you see when the APEX will occur? November 1st around 6200$.
I won't be surprised that we will use the fork related to BITCOIN GOLD to justify this big break out.
