The ECB Is Now Studying The Option Of Introducing A Digital Currency
Benoit Coeure, member of the Executive Board of the European Central Bank (ECB), has said Europe must overcome its reliance on international payment providers. However, it is not the central bank’s job to come to the rescue and crowd out private sector initiatives.
The ECB is now studying the option of introducing a digital currency, and this would have broader consequences for the banks. Coeure warned against the central bank crowding out private-sector players.
The ECB recently introduced an instant payment system called TIPS for transactions between banks, but lenders have been slow to join and the scheme has not had a significant impact so far.
Former PBoC Head: China’s Digital Currency To Emphasize On Payment And Retail Usage
According to a report, when it comes to whether global central banks will issue digital currency, ZHOU Xiaochuan, president of China Society for Finance and Banking and former head of the People’s Bank of China, believes that China will continue to adhere to the past path, emphasizing digital currency’s usage in the payment and retail.
Big countries are very cautious when choosing technical directions at the currency level. If they go in the wrong direction, a crisis of trust may arise. China will emphasize digital currency’s payment function and maintain favorable technical support for the retail system. Based on this, it will gradually consider expanding the use of digital currency.
Thai Excise Department Will Devise A Blockchain Tax Refund System
According to Bangkok Post, the Thailand Excise Department will devise a method to refund overpaid taxes to oil exporters in a manner that stems leakages, its chief says.
The change in the tax refund practice will use blockchain, which the department plans to adopt by the middle of next year, said director-general Patchara Anuntasilpa.
The blockchain-based tax payback system requires oil exporters to pay excise tax to the department and claim overpaid taxes after they ship the fuel, he said. The new technology will let the department inspect the tax payments thoroughly.
Earlier this month, we discussed the chances of bitcoin hitting $7,400 and $6,500 against the US Dollar. BTC did decline heavily and recently tested the main $6,500 support area.
A new multi-month low was formed near $6,535 before the price started an upside correction. There was a strong recovery after the price surpassed the $6,750 resistance area. Besides, the price rallied more than 10% to climb above the $7,000 resistance.
More importantly, yesterday’s key bearish trend line was breached with resistance near $7,060 on the hourly chart of the BTC/USD pair. The pair even spiked above the 100 hourly simple moving average and tested the $7,350 resistance area.
A high was formed near $7,372 and bitcoin price is currently trimming gains. It traded below the $7,200 level. Additionally, there was a break below the 23.6% Fib retracement level of the recent wave from the $6,535 low to $7,372 high.

How does the world turn into a series of blocks of decentralization? “Blockchain”
Blockchain technology is a kind of database which you can say is a distributed database. It can manage the infinity number of databases and act as an electronic recorder that records all the transactions. Each transaction is called a block and each block has information that refers to the previous block. That’s why they call it “Blockchain” because once the block is created, no one can change the information inside it from any party from the transaction. You can use it also when you need to make a transaction while recording information you don’t need for third party, the fastest process to store data, that technology can do all the transaction you think about it, from the transfer of funds to the transport of goods and property, their uses are unlimited.
The idea behind blockchain technology was described since 1991 when scientific researchers Stuart Haber and Scott Stornetta offered solution to practical computational seal documents to be safer. The system used a series of secured encrypted blocks to store time-stamped documents. In 1992, Merkle tree was merged into the design, making it more efficient by allowing multiple documents to be combined into a single block. However, this technology went unused and the patent expired in 2004, four years before the start of Bitcoin.
Blockchain Features:
If the blockchain is just a new technology that is used to manage and record the transactions, and store data, why are there lots of people so excited about this technique?
1- Safety:
Nowadays there is a lot of hackers and data thieves, especially after the big event of hacking of several Facebook accounts. So now you need to think twice before recording your data anywhere and try to protect it. One of the major benefits of blockchain is high safety and reliability. That’s to say, it’s more secure than the regular protection like username and password.
2- Decentralization:
Blockchain is decentralized. Most Blockchain operations from buying, selling, trading, and other transfers depend on a set of pre-determined conditions and terms between the parties. There is no censorship, which means that it doesn’t need the third party. It’s a digital process that no one can see because it’s transparent.
3- Effectiveness and speed:
Entering data manually is very boring and may cause lots of errors while processing the action. Just imagine how many typo errors that you do normally while writing an e-mail especially when it's an official e-mail to your professor or manager. It'll be awkward for you, right?
But when the data becomes more sensitive, such as wages, working hours, or hospital data, it will be more complicated in that it will require a longer time to check and review it again.
With blockchain, all this information is stored and verified when it is obtained directly. For example, it may take up to a week to purchase a simple stock and check if the process is correct, there is no need for third-party verification because all the information needed to complete the sale or purchase is included directly.
7 Uses of Blockchain technology
1- Cryptocurrency:
Cryptocurrencies, such as bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, are one of the most popular blockchain applications. Cryptocurrencies may have been responsible for presenting the blockchain technology at the beginning, as it’s a form of digital money which has high security for use in our daily financial transactions.
2- Smart Contract:
Smart contracts are one of the most popular applications that play a good role in blockchain technology. The smart contract is generally used to automate business processes, payments, and transactions. People are excited about this technique because they save a lot of effort, time, and costs to implement the same tasks we used to do before, but with less effort.
Although the users for smart contracts nowadays are less, the demand for this service is expected to increase as the volume of cryptocurrencies worldwide increases. There are many uses, such as buying, selling propertied and transferring them easily between the parties.
3- Monitor supply chain:
Blockchain also plays an important role when it comes to monitoring the supply chain. Blockchain would allow businesses, and possibly even consumers, to view how products performed from a quality-control perspective as they travelled from their place of origin to the retailer.
4- Retail loyalty rewards programs:
Blockchain could further revolutionize the retail experience by becoming the go-to for loyalty rewards. By creating a token-based system that rewards consumers, and storing these tokens within a blockchain, it would incentivize consumers to return to a certain store or chain to do their shopping. It would also eliminate the fraud and waste commonly associated with paper- and card-based loyalty rewards programs.
5- Digital IDs:
More than 1 billion people worldwide face identity challenges. Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) is looking to change that. It’s creating digital IDs within its Authenticator app, currently used by millions of people, which give users a way to control their digital identities. This would allow folks in impoverished regions to get access to financial services, or start their own business, as an example.
6- Digital voting:
Blockchain offers the ability to vote digitally, but it's transparent enough that any regulators would be able to see if something were changed on the network. It combines the ease of digital voting with the immutability (unchanging nature) of blockchain to make your vote truly counts.
7- Real estate, Land:
One of the primary goals of blockchain is to take a paper out of the equation since paper trails are often a source of confusion. If you're buying or selling land, a house, or a car, you'll need to transfer or receive a title. Instead of handling this on paper, blockchain can store titles on its network, allowing for a transparent view of this transfer, as well as presenting a crystal-clear picture of legal ownership.
And now to the last question that everybody asks themselves when they hear about Blockchain. Should we worry about our business and economic activities with Blockchain technology?
I don't think it's time to worry yet, but you certainly have to be careful and watch the blockchain closely. Industries, as well as major technology companies and businesses rely on blockchain in their dealings. You should know when to take your golden opportunity.
11-26 07:13 - 'The adoption crypto' (self.Bitcoin) by /u/davidtorre15 removed from /r/Bitcoin within 241-251min
'''
NOTE : ( I am very aware of the amount of shitcoin and scamcoin that exist. We have done research, market research, proof of concept and success to make an effective adoption of cryptos in society. We believe it is a good idea to materialize our project in a crypto and raise enough capital in Ico for the development of the project. We would like that if someone is interested can evaluate our project and determine if it has potential, to help us with funding for development, marketing, advertising, among other expenses that brings our project to market.)
I am a librarian at one of the best universities in my country, The Central University of Venezuela, and due to my nationality it has been difficult for me to find an investor. I have applied my knowledge in the crypto market and have found a possible great source of income. There are different types of cryptos with capitalizations from millions to billions of dollars(you can verify in COINMARKETCAP and Google) and each crypto is supported by different projects such as ecological, security, artificial intelligence among others. It should be added that although there are thousands of cryptos, each has the same need, The Adoption of cryptocurrencies in society, being this the project that will support our crypto.
All companies spend thousands to millions of dollars either in research, advertising, market research or marketing to continually discover how to achieve the continued adoption of their product or service by the consumer. Certainly not all companies achieve massive-effective adoption, being the crypt market the one that has presented more problems in its adoption. It should be added that the project that has as objective the adoption crypto in an effective way and presents the best research, market study, marketing strategy, concrete results, among others, could be one of the projects-crypto, better supported financially by the market.
We have evaluated various forms of adoption raised by companies carrying out events, advertising and we have also evaluated projects that have sought crypto adoption with less scope and although there are different ways to take adoption, are not having the results they want. Example the project eletropay that were going to get a financing from shark tank Brazil for almost $1,000,000. The funding was never given for lack of diligence in the paperwork and according to one of the spokespersons of the company DASH who spoke about his method for adoption through the use of a product such as the POS (Point of Sale) stating that it was not the most efficient.
I have been looking for an investor in other countries for almost a year and due to my nationality I have not been able to get an investor. I have contacted with a Venezuelan company AFX Exchange and when they presented my project they affirmed that it is a new form of adoption but also because it is something new, they do not know how good it can be. I have received good comments from connoisseurs in crypto currencies recognizing that the project I propose could be effective but unfortunately we will not know how good it is, until the moment we bring this to market. The cryptomedas in their pre-sale collect millions of dollars as you see in the image, certainly some raise less money, as well as other crypto collect $10,000,000, $20,000,000 and much more money than what you see in the photos, it all depends on the importance that the market gives to the project.
We offer project equity for funding. It takes about $8,000 to $10,000. From the day we get the investment, in about a month and a half we will pre-sell our crypto. Being the first profit taking on the part of the investor and those involved in the project.
I am aware of the bad publicity they give to Venezuelans, but I also know that the type of project I propose could generate a lot of income since the market for cryptom moves billions of dollars (data verifiable in coinmarketcap). If we do not generate the necessary trust, we are in the possibility of meeting with the investor personally if he resides in Colombia or Venezuela where our team is located

Help me settle this argument
My friend put 300 dollars in Bitcoin and made around 1800 dollars around 2 years ago. Then after a series of unfortunate events, he lost it all. Now, I think he lost 1800 dollars while he says he only lost 300 dollars because he didn't turn it into cash. I argue he used the 1800 to lose it all so therefore he lost the 1800. Help us settle this argument.
