- A European Central Bank executive board member said this week that blockchain is promising – but that bitcoin is “the evil spawn of the financial crisis.”
- Two cryptocurrency startups have agreed to register their initial coin offering tokens as securities after settling charges with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission.
- Interest from both employers and job seekers in blockchain and cryptocurrency-related jobs has declined in the past year, new data indicates.
- After yesterday’s split of the Bitcoin Cash blockchain, several top exchanges have already accommodated the resulting two tokens.
