Highlighting what went right, and what went wrong, in this week’s crypto news analysis.
Last week was a big week for the crypto-community. Ignoring Zuck Bucks for a moment, BTC broke through its 12 month high, soaring passed $10,000 with no view to stopping. Bitmain is aiming for an IPO again (this time in the US). And The Bank of England is getting behind DLT for instant settlement.
Now turning our attention to Libra, which has been received with a mix of excitement, skepticism (from believers in cryptocurrency), and downright opposition (mostly from regulators and central governments).
