🗞 Bitcoin May Come to eBay as Platform Drops PayPal as Main Payment Option

For as long as people can remember, there has been a tight relationship between eBay and PayPal. In virtually every case, PayPal is a required option for anyone looking to sell items on the global auction site. That situation will come to change in the near future, as eBay has announced its plan to ditch PayPal as its main payment option. It is a rather surprising turn of events, albeit one that could be quite positive for both companies.

🗞 Interview With India's Three Largest Exchanges: Cryptocurrency Ban Rumors are FUD

Earlier this week, many reports falsely suggested that the Indian government has banned cryptocurrency trading and the entire cryptocurrency market. Cointelegraph spoke to India’s three largest cryptocurrency exchanges, which unanimously stated that the cryptocurrency ban rumors are nothing more than FUD.

In an exclusive interview, executives at Coinsecure, Unocoin and Zebpay, the most widely utilized cryptocurrency trading platforms in the country with millions of users, unanimously stated that the document released by the Ministry of Finance was misinterpreted. The India Ministry of Finance reaffirmed that it intends to ban the usage of cryptocurrencies in financial crimes and illicit activities, but not ban cryptocurrencies in general. It is important to acknowledge that the use of cash or any currency in financial crimes is banned.

🗞 Vitalik Buterin Donates $2.4 Million In Ether To Anti-Aging Research

“I am happy to have been blessed with the opportunity to personally support SENS's efforts. Their focus on creating solutions to the diseases of aging, one of the greatest problems facing humanity, is very much in line with my goal to positively impact the lives of millions of people around the world.”

🗞 CME President Hesitant To Develop Additional Cryptocurrency Derivativess

It's been just shy of two months since the CME Group and CBOE self-certified and launched their bitcoin futures products, much to the dismay of many market participants and industry watchers. Not long after the settlement of the first bitcoin futures contracts, the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) has instituted a "heightened review" process, and has determined to assess the appropriateness of self-certification for virtual currency derivatives.

🗞 Exclusive: Bitcoin Must Be Declared On US Security Clearance Form – DSS Official

ETHNews has reviewed an email sent by Chad M. Campbell, an industrial security specialist with the Defense Security Service (DSS), relating that individuals submitting Standard Form 86 (SF86) should report any bitcoin holdings in their possession along with their other disclosures.

So yesterday I was showing you that we used the support line to do a rebound :

Here is the current chart ;

The scenario of a rebound is still valid.

We need to see now higher highs on the chart like I drawn you in green. The next hours will be important because if we don't have enough bullish volume, we could quickly go test again the support line in red and finally break it. So if you are long on the market, keep an eye on this support line and how the market is reacting and don't forget to use stop.
