🗞 European Supervisory Authorities Issue Consumer Warning Regarding Cryptocurrency

Together, the European Securities and Markets Authority (ESMA), European Banking Authority (EBA), and European Insurance and Occupational Pensions Authority (EIOPA) comprise the European Supervisory Authorities (ESAs), one arm of the European system of financial supervision.

🗞 CME Plans To Develop New System To More Easily Modify Blockchain Protocols

A patent for a system that would allow for modifications of a Blockchain protocol without a consensus from all participants of the network, originally filed by the CME Group in December 2017, has been published by the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) last Thursday, Feb. 8.

In most Blockchain-based networks, such as Bitcoin’s, modifying the protocol currently requires a network consensus that can be hard to achieve, making the system more resilient, but also harder to upgrade when needed.

🗞 Iceland Bitcoin Mining to Double Energy Consumption This Year

Iceland is the ideal place to mine bitcoin. Thanks to the cold coupled with relatively cheap electricity costs, the region has drawn its share of bitcoin mining operations. This year alone energy expended on crypto mining will exceed that of typical domestic usage, according to reports.

🗞 IMF Chief Christine Lagarde Says International Crypto Regulation Is ‘Inevitable’ And Necessary

International Monetary Fund (IMF) chief Christine Lagarde told CNNMoney yesterday, Feb.11, that regulation of cryptocurrencies is “inevitable” and necessary on an international level.

When asked during an interview with CNNMoney emerging markets editor John Defterios, about the increasing popularity of crypto markets possibly being caused by a “starvation for high returns in the global markets,” Lagarde replied that the trend showed a “herd mentality” of those looking for high yield products as well as an element of speculation.

🗞 T-Mobile's Blockchain Work Is Quietly Coming Together

T-Mobile has been quietly toiling away on an enterprise blockchain solution for months, and it looks primed to make a big reveal soon.

The telecom giant's interest in blockchain was most recently advanced after the company was prominently mentioned for its role in helping develop Hyperledger Sawtooth's 1.0 version. Yet, its overarching blockchain work is not widely known.

And while details are still being kept under lock and key, Chris Spanton, the senior architect of T-Mobile's Hyper Directory, a blockchain proof-of-concept (PoC) that was quietly unveiled in November, told CoinDesk several milestones are in the works.

Yesterday I was saying you that we will use the support line in red to make a new bounce with this chart :

Here is the updated chart :

As you can see, once again, my prediction was 100% correct.

We should now try to go test the previous TOP around 4,50$ and I keep that as first objective.

Depending off the Bitcoin, it is always possible that we go back test the support line in red again. We shouldn't break it except if we have an important drop on the Bitcoin also.
