🗞 Crypto Anarchists Are Building Tools to Resist the State in Eastern Europe

“Is this really what Satoshi expected 10 years ago?”

That was the question asked by activist Pavol Luptak, at the opening of a new centre for crypto-anarchy – the Paralelni Polis – in Bratislava, Slovakia in October.

Citing new surveillance infrastructures, relentless taxation, and the adoption of blockchain by state actors, Luptak called for a return to the political vision that underpinned bitcoin at its inception – or what he calls a “crypto renaissance.”

Luptak – the co-founder of the Paralelni Polis in both Bratislava and Prague in the Czech Republic – and his associates are fixated on the question of how to use decentralized technologies to liberate individuals from state control.

🗞 How Silvergate Became the Leading Bank for Crypto Startups

It’s been a long journey for Alan Lane since the Silvergate Bank CEO bought his first bitcoin in 2013.

That was around the time his small, deposit-hungry bank, based in La Jolla, California, took on its first crypto exchange as a client. It was a gutsy move for a financial institution, since at the time most bankers viewed bitcoin as either a fad, a scam or a reputational and regulatory risk – if they had even heard of it all.

Speaking Friday at the BlockFS conference in New York, Lane recalled:

“Here were these companies that were raising money from reputable [venture capital] firms. They weren’t doing anything illegal, they weren’t doing anything immoral. And yet, they were struggling to maintain bank accounts. So I put our need for deposits together with their need for banking services.”

🗞 Russia: Sberbank and Interros Group Conclude Blockchain-Based Foreign Exchange Repo Deal

Sberbank and Interros Group have carried out an over-the-counter OTC foreign exchange repurchase agreement (repo) transaction employing smart contracts on a blockchain, Reuters Russia reports Nov. 30.

The Interros Group is a Moscow-based private equity firm founded by Russian oligarch Vladimir Potanin in 1990, with stakes in Norilsk Nickel, pharmaceutical company Petrovax Pharm, and ski resort development firm Rosa Khutor.

🗞 Thai SEC Explains Two Laws Could Apply to Crypto Securities

Thailand’s Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has reportedly clarified how existing laws can apply to crypto securities. In addition, Thai companies planning to issue securities tokens abroad would be guilty of wrongdoing under the Digital Asset Act for avoiding regulated fundraising channels.

🗞 SteemFollower a Great Tool to Have Fair Upvotes !

What is SteemFollower ?

I posted about it last week and wanted to do it once more in case you missed it. I also added some explanations.

It is a platform where you can Upvote Steemit Posts and Follow Steemians.

The principle is simple: You will get back the amount of upvotes you gave to other SteemFollowers’ users.

You can think of it as an “Upvote Closed Loop”

STEEM Trading Update by my friend @cryptopassion

Here is the chart of yesterday :

Here is the current chart :

As you can see, we tried to break the resistance line during hours but we failed to break it and so the immediate result of that fail is the drop coming back. We could go back test the previous low around 0.30$ if the BTC starts to drop again. Let's see if this support will hold or not.
