Now let’s look at the news! According to a report by Cointelegraph, eBay, a United States-based multinational e-commerce corporation that handles consumer-to-consumer and business-to-consumer sales, has denied rumors that it has now joined the cryptocurrency movement, despite dropping crypto integration hints via its billboard ads at the Consensus summit in New York City.
“Virtual Currency. It’s happening on eBay,” reads one of eBay’s billboards.
Commenting on the matter, an eBay spokesperson stated that: “Cryptocurrency is not accepted as a form of payment on the eBay platform, nor is it part of our payments strategy.”
While eBay reportedly has a section on its website marked virtual currency, where users of the site can buy cryptos from sellers via traditional payment methods, officially making bitcoin and altcoins accepted payment method would have undoubtedly had a positive effect on the entire crypto markets, considering the fact that the e-commerce platform has a colossal user base. Though some observers have attributed the recent bitcoin price rally to the eBay rumor, it is now obvious that the news has no hand in the bitcoin price match towards the moon as the bulls keep raging on despite eBay’s comments. It’s worth noting that a good number of merchants and stores across the globe recently joined the crypto bandwagon, including the likes of Whole Foods Markets, Barnes & Noble and Bed & Beyond, to mention a few.
Now, moving onto the second news piece. Per a report by AMBCrypto, while notable bitcoin and cryptocurrency critics, as well as haters, often argue that cryptocurrencies especially bitcoin (BTC) has no real use cases asides being used as a tool for money laundering and speculative purposes, Eric Voorhees, the highly reputed CEO of ShapeShift cryptocurrency exchange, has made it clear that bitcoin is more than just a super volatile digital money.
In an interview with Bloomberg, Voorhees stated categorically that bitcoin’s constant price fluctuations and bubbles pave the way for it to establish itself as a viable medium of exchange. In response to whether bitcoin will ever be more than just a speculative asset, the eccentric American startup founder reiterated that:
“The usage of bitcoin actually depends on where the user is. In Venezuela, people are using it to escape inflation while in other jurisdictions like Japan, Switzerland, the U.S e.t.c people have started using it in real-life transactions. I agree that a majority of the use cases are still speculative, but that will change as soon as people fully embrace it.” Hate it or love it, cryptoassets are fast revolutionizing the world of finance, thanks to their promise of providing users’ with a borderless, superfast and cost-efficient payment option.
And thirdly, According to a Coingeek report, the much-anticipated bitcoin cash hard fork went live on May 15 as scheduled, amidst bugs and frictions. Specifically, the upgrade was activated on block 582680, but the network suddenly came to a halt, failing to produce new blocks for nearly half an hour.
“It appears as if there may be a problem with the bitcoin cash hardfork upgrade, the number of transactions per block is low (0 in the last 9 blocks, other than the Coinbase transaction. Below chart is the number of transactions per block, and the orange line is the hardfork point,”tweeted BitMEX Research.
Bitcoin Unlimited (BU) developer, Greg Griffith took to Reddit to explain that the glitch was caused by a bitcoin cash ABC client issue. Though ABC developers are now working on the issue, Reddit user, Ferriesta Patronum has stated that “though no [bitcoin cash] coins were in danger, the bug highlighted “the need for a more distributed codebase.”
Now moving on, Cryptocurrency exchange Binance will resume trading activity after undergoing a security upgrade following last week’s 7,000 BTC (equal to approximately $41 million dollar hack.
According to a tweet from Binance’s CEO Changpeng Zhao, as of May 15, 2019, orders can be canceled while “trading, placing new orders & deposits resumes in 30 min or so.”During the security upgrade at 03:00 UTC, Binance released a support message noting that all services will be suspended during this time.
The upgrade took “longer than expected” and required a two-hour extension. After the upgrade, Binance noted that all trading activity will recommence at 13:00 (UTC). While CZ mentioned that Binance will make changes related to its Application Programming Interface (API), two-factor authentification (2FA) and withdrawal validation, the exchange did not reveal complete details regarding their security upgrades. They did, however, mention they are currently improving know-your-customer procedures and other issues in the back-end.
And finally, the last news item for today! According to the EOSWriter, the publication shares with us a few different viewpoints from prominent members in the crypto space on what EOS’ 1st of June announcement from the organization will be.
Brendan Blumer, the Block.one CEO mentioned exclusively to the publication that “Last June, Block.one delivered the world’s most performance Blockchain Protocol, EOS; this June, we’re focused on delivering safety, alignment, and decentralization to mainstream personal infrastructure that is completely broken today.”
Now there hasn’t been too much information shared with us. Dan Larimer has stated “What if you could decentralize social media more than Steemit?
The future of social media is thousands of blockchains under independent governance coordinating with interchain communication behind a seamless user experience” He also mentioned a public roadmap will disclose everything we have been and will be working on. A date has been set.”
“When the time comes, our marketing will be beyond anything seen in crypto. But before you can market, you need an onboarding strategy that can convert users and a service that can retain them.”
“June will be biggest news since eosio announcement.”
“We will not sell data to advertisers” “We will not collect data like Facebook.”
WOW This is definitely something really big, Rob Finch believes that it will be groundbreaking and play an instrumental role in moving the EOS ecosystem forward.
Ali Ayyash noted that b1 will announce something not EOSio related rather some government related updates,
and Nathan James added. I estimate a way to finally fly using umbrellas.
Those are just a few opinions on what the Block One June announcement will be. Damn guys, if it’s something crazy big, then I’m Cardano, and the ADA token will benefit significantly!
