đź—ž Bitfinex and Tether Obtain Stay of Demands From New York Supreme Court
Cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex and its affiliated stablecoin issuer Tether have been granted its stay of demands for which they applied yesterday May 21, according to a blog post published on May 22.
Per the post, Justice Joel M. Cohen of the New York Supreme Court (NYSC) ruled to grant the companies their motion for an immediate stay of the document demands. The court thus only requires the parties to produce documents and information related to whether there is personal jurisdiction over the companies in New York, while staying the document order in all other regards.
In yesterday’s motion, law firms representing the two companies specifically argued that the New York Attorney General (NYAG) has neither personal nor subject matter jurisdiction and that the NYSC cannot be appealed to, because Bitfinex and Tether are neither operated out of New York nor harmed investors in that state.
🗞 South Korean Gov’t Announces Second Study Group for Blockchain Regulations
The South Korean Ministry of Science and ICT is going to run a follow-up study on blockchain regulations, according to a Yonhap News report on May 21.
The study is called the “Blockchain Regulation Improvement Study Group” and is part of an initiative run by the government’s science and tech arm to figure out how regulations could be improved so that blockchain tech could achieve widespread institutional adoption.
The Blockchain Regulation Improvement Study Group was launched in June of last year, and initially focused on improving legal regulations pertaining to blockchain tech such as personal privacy, smart contracts, electronic documents and digital signatures, and the application of distributed computing systems.
đź—ž Binance CEO CZ Is Suing VC Giant Sequoia for Reputational Damages
Binance founder and CEO Changpeng Zhao is taking a unit of Sequoia Capital back to court after the VC investor’s case against him was dismissed.
The crypto exchange mogul, nicknamed CZ, claims Sequoia Capital China hurt his reputation and prevented him from raising money at favorable valuations and wants the VC giant to compensate him.
According to a filing submitted on May 20 to the High Court in Hong Kong and obtained by CoinDesk, Zhao has sent an application via his attorneys for a hearing before the court chambers on an order for “immediate summary of assessment of damages.”
đź—ž Dash brings anti-51 percent attack software upgrade to mainnet
Dash’s highly-anticipated “anti-51 percent attack” network upgrade has finally been completed, marking “one of the most important updates” in the blockchain’s five-year history, according to an emailed statement from the Dash Core Group.
The company behind the Dash cryptocurrency announced today that the Dash Core v0.14.0 software upgrade has officially gone live on its mainnet. The upgrade aims to solve the nightmare of 51 percent attacks while also providing near-instant transaction times, as Dash Core Group COO Robert Wicko previously explained in an interview with Decrypt.
While it is incredibly rare, a 51 percent attack is a dangerous occurrence. Mostly, it happens when a single party obtains over half of the total mining power on a cryptocurrency network. Using the computing power under his control, the attacker can easily manipulate the ledger, and steal the tokens.

STEEM Trading Update by my friend @cryptopassion
Here is the chart of yesterday :
Here is the current chart :
As expected yesterday, we did a new test of the resistance line at 0.39$ but we failed again to break it. It is always better to avoid a second fail on this kind of test but a third or even more tests could still be successfull so no drama till now. However, the more we fail to break that line, the more we have propabilities to see a correction taking place so as already explained yesterday, I really hope we will be able to break it asap.
