Most cryptocurrency enthusiasts will agree the year 2018 is best forgotten quickly. A lot of financial losses were sustained during this period.

Although everyone prefers making money, the deficit can serve another purpose in a positive manner. In the United

It is a very interesting week for all cryptocurrencies, albeit not necessarily for the most obvious reasons. A fresh wave of bearish momentum appears to affect all of the top markets. In the Ethereum price department, minor losses have become apparent in USD and BTC value. This also means the currency will not retake the second spot in the market cap rankings anytime soon. Ethereum Price Momentum Sours Again No one will be surprised to learn the cryptocurrency markets aren’t out of the woods yet. Last year was increasingly bearish for all of the markets.

There are a lot of concerns regarding bans on cryptocurrency ads by major technology firms. Facebook, Twitter, Microsoft, and Google have all taken similar actions in this regard.

The Google Ban on Crypto Ads The month of June 2018 will be a trying time for the cryptocurrency industry. This will be when the recently announced cryptocurrency ad bans will go into effect. Google‘s ban affects all ads involving cryptocurrencies, initial coin offerings, trading platforms, trading advisers, and wallet services.

There have been plenty of concerns when it comes to the so-called “rich lists” in cryptocurrency. A very small number of wallets usually hold the highest number of coins or tokens.

Even though there are hundreds of competing blockchain projects in existence today, there is always room for more competition.

The Super Chain Initiative in a Nutshell One has to agree that the electricity consumption associated with cryptocurrency mining is getting out of hand. Although most of the headlines published on this topic are somewhat taken out of context, it remains to be seen how this situation will evolve. Renewable energy plays a big

Although it’s a potentially powerful platform, it remains to be seen how this venture will evolve.
