🗞 Bill Gates, “Cryptocurrencies... Caused Deaths In a Fairly Direct Way” In Reddit AMA, Community Reacts

“The main feature of crypto currencies is their anonymity. I don't think this is a good thing. The Government’s ability to find money laundering and tax evasion and terrorist funding is a good thing. Right now crypto currencies are used for buying fentanyl and other drugs so it is a rare technology that has caused deaths in a fairly direct way. I think the speculative wave around ICOs and crypto currencies is super risky for those who go long.”

🗞 Japanese E-Commerce Giant Rakuten To Launch Its Own Cryptocurrency

Japan’s largest e-commerce company Rakuten, with a market capitalization of over $12.5 bln, is planning to launch its own cryptocurrency called Rakuten Coin based on Blockchain technology and the existing Rakuten Super Points loyalty program.

🗞 US Department Of Justice Developing Cryptocurrency Strategy

A Department of Justice taskforce is crafting a strategy to address the use of cryptocurrencies by cybercriminals, according to US Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein.

"It's not true that anything is really fully completely anonymous, right? We all know that there are ways to trace criminal activity … there will be other ways that people leave trails and ultimately even if they're dealing in cyber currency they're ultimately going to try to convert that – launder it – into physical currency, and so there are ways to trace these cases, but it requires a lot of sophistication."

🗞 Europol: Hardcore Criminals Are Shifting From Bitcoin to Monero, Zcash and Dash

A multitude of representatives of law enforcement agencies from around the world have talked about the use of bitcoin by criminal elements, sometimes revealing ignorance about cryptocurrencies in the process. Now it appears that Europol at least is trying to go deeper, learning about various altcoins and how they can be used too.

🗞 The Telegram ICO: What We Know (And Don't) About 2018's Biggest Token Sale

So far in 2018, Telegram's rumored initial coin offering (ICO) has been the talk of the industry - a remarkable feat given the global messaging platform's executives have yet to utter those three letters together or confirm the company is, in fact, raising money via a sale of tokens called "grams."

We are still in the middle of the 2 lines, more and more closer of the resistance line :

You can see that the Bollinger Bands are just parallel, which means that the moves are very small. Most of the time we have this kind of pattern just before a Break Out. Let's hope the Break Out will take the good direction and will try to go break the resistance line in red.
