Students at Prestigious Institutions are excited to Study Bitcoin. According to Dan Boneh, co-director of the Stanford Computer Security Lab and professor of cryptography, he is attracting a large number of people to his cryptocurrency courses. As a cryptography researcher for almost 30 years, Boneh began teaching a bitcoin and cryptocurrency class in 2015, attracting more than 100 students. His online cryptography course has seen over one million signing up, reports  CNBC . College students at some of the world’s most prestigious educational and research institutions such as Stanford are rushing to take cryptocurrency programs, curriculums, and classes. More importantly, in 2017 alone,  the price of bitcoin has increased by over six-fold, while the market cap of Ethereum increased from $10 billion to $30 billion, demonstrating drastic surges in value.  Taken away by the market valuations of leading cryptocurrencies, Boneh noted that students have becom...

So much speculations about the Re-election of Chinese President Xi Jinping on Cryptocurrency Trading resumption.   The re-election of Chinese President Xi Jinping, which is expected to fuel the resumption of cryptocurrency trading, is set to occur later this year. Analysts such as Jon Creasy, a bitcoin researcher, emphasized that the reelection of President Xi could very likely lead to the resumption of bitcoin and cryptocurrency exchanges. Creasy  wrote: “My prediction is this: as soon as President Xi Jinping is reelected — and he will be — conservative, free(er)-trade legislation will be put in place, and Bitcoin exchanges will be reinstated. In fact, I wouldn’t be surprised to see the Chinese government encouraging certain exchanges and cryptocurrencies, once this legislation hits. Historically speaking, President Xi Jinping has been one of the largest advocates of free markets China has seen in quite some time, and I expect this trend to continue.” Photo cre...

A trusted news source within the Chinese cryptocurrency industry, has revealed that OKEX will soon launch peer-to-peer (P2P) over-the-counter (OTC) bitcoin-to-fiat trading platform..... reported   CNLedger. OKEX and Huobi-Pro Now Based in Hong Kong OKEX is headquartered in Causeway Bay, Hong Kong, and so are companies including BTCC and Huobi-Pro, which previously operated bitcoin and cryptocurrency trading platforms in China. But, as CNLedger noted, these companies plan to launch P2P OTC markets in Hong Kong, which would allow investors to trade the Chinese yuan (CNY) for bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. “So OkEx (and likely, Huobi-Pro) will soon launch P2P bitcoin tradings with various fiat currency support,”  CNLedger  reported .  “We believe they’ll support CNY and some others like USD, JPY. They are registered outside China, and are operating independent of OKCoin. They’re not as convenient as exchanges and are less safe (many scammers). But it’s s...

Bitcoin splits again, creating a new cryptocurrency called bitcoin gold. The price of bitcoin took a hit after the cryptocurrency underwent another split, with the newly-created bitcoin gold seeing its value plunge over 60 percent. Bitcoin hit a low of $5,374.60 on Wednesday lastweek before recovering nearly $300. The initial fall followed the "hard fork" that occurred Tuesday. What is the 'hard fork' about? Firstly, it's important to understand  how the bitcoin system works . Transactions by users are gathered into "blocks" that are turned into a complex math solution. So-called miners, using high-powered computers, work these solutions out to determine if the transaction is possible. Once other miners also check the puzzle is correct, the transactions are approved and the miners are rewarded in bitcoin. The need for high-end machinery has meant that mining is controlled by a small group of people with powerful computers. ...

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak believes that bitcoin is superior to both gold and the “phony” U.S. dollar. As reported by  Bitcoin Magazine , Wozniak made this assertion at the Money 20/20 conference in Las Vegas, explaining that although bitcoin is criticized for its price volatility, it is more stable than government-backed currencies such as the U.S. dollar since it has a fixed supply, while fiat currencies can be easily diluted. “There is a certain finite amount of bitcoin that can ever exist,” the publication cites Wozniak as saying. That makes it “more genuine and real” than the dollar, which is “kind of phony” since the U.S. government can issue new units of currency for purely political reasons. Praising bitcoin’s utility as a store of value, he compared it to owning an appreciable asset such as a house:  “Your house has value. And if it is a house today, 40 years from now, it still is a house in value,” he said, even if the price increases ove...

Bitcoin exchange Coinbase announced the use of US bank Account. Coinbase announced that it will now allow users to buy bitcoin, ethereum, and litecoin instantly when paying with a US bank account. Coinbase made the announcement in a  blog post . Previously, customers who purchased cryptocurrency using a bank account had to wait several days — sometimes as long as a week — before they received access to their assets. Now, customers who pay for their cryptocurrency purchases using a US bank account can buy up to $25,000 worth of BTC, ETH, and LTC and receive access to their coins immediately. This will be a welcome addition for consumers, many of whom desire to purchase ether so they can participate in initial coin offerings (ICOs), but new users in particular often do not realize they need to plan ahead to make sure their coins are available at the start of the ICO. From the announcement: “Our mission is to make Coinbase the most trusted, safe, and easy-to-use digita...

‘Everyone is Excited About Blockchain’ Bitcoin Price ‘Too Expensive’:.... World Bank President! The president of the World Bank has praised blockchain technology while expressing skepticism of the current valuation of bitcoin price. World Bank president Jim Yong Kim was speaking to CNBC in an interview when he talked up the potential of blockchain technology in the financial sector before adding   that cryptocurrency blockchains should been treated with caution. He stated: " The blockchain technology is something that everyone is excited about. Bu,t we have to remember that bitcoin is one of the very few instances and other times that blockchain was used – they were basically ponzi schemes. It’s very important that if we go forward with it, we’re sure that it’s not going to be used to exploit. " Curiously, Kim went on to plug existing centralized FinTech payment platforms, citing the example of Chinese e-commerce giant Alibaba’s hugely popular payments platform, Alipa...

If you compare two pieces of American money dating to the 19th century, you could find a dollar coin made of silver and a paper dollar that in those days could also be exchanged for the same silver coin. More than a 100 years ago paper dollar bills were backed by silver, a precious metal that theoretically should always have value. However, today that has changed, a modern dollar bill is backed by nothing but the word of the U.S. government. Therefore the government can do whatever they wish, they can print more paper money, devalue the dollar any time they want, in fact, and although unlikely, the dollar could even disappear completely (Metz, 2013). There are subtle differences between a virtual currency, a digital currency and a cryptocurrency, although the terms are often used interchangeably. Virtual Currency – in 2012 the European Central Bank defined a virtual currency as "a type of unregulated, digital money, which is issued and usually controlled by its ...

A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution. Digital signatures provide part of the solution, but the main benefits are lost if a trusted third party is still required to prevent double-spending. We propose a solution to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network. The network timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without redoing the proof-of-work. The longest chain not only serves as proof of the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest pool of CPU power. As long as a majority of CPU power is controlled by nodes that are not cooperating to attack the network, they'll generate the longest chain and outpace attackers. The network itself requires minimal structure. Messages are broadcast on a best effort basis, and nodes ca...

Cryptocurrencies are a form of money specifically designed to take advantage of the architecture of the internet. Instead of relying on a standard financial institution to guarantee and verify transactions, cryptocurrency transactions are checked, or "confirmed," by the computers of the users on the currency's network. The computers that verify the transactions usually receive a small amount of currency as a reward. The process of receiving rewards in exchange for verifying transactions is called "mining," and it is the main way that new currency is produced. Mining works differently for different currencies. Because cryptocurrencies are completely digital, they can be used in ways that ordinary currencies can't; primarily, they are used like the digital equivalent of cash. Unlike credit or debit cards that are issued by banks, you don't need an account or good credit to use cryptocurrencies, yet you can use them to buy goods and services fr...
