Square and Coinsquare Sitting on a Fence ...

in cryptocurrency •  6 years ago  (edited)

Not an Ether's chance in hell of romance.
Neither one nor the other offered a crypto kiss.
Litecoin said to Bitcoin, "Something here's amiss,"
To which the chief replied,
"Bulls and bears are splitting hairs,
But Ripple has been decried."

Pardon the hackneyed verse, but today's #crypto digest is extra special with some pretty groovy news. Let's continue.

Crypto News

The crypto world is full of shapes of all sizes. Circle is a well-rounded exchange with some never-ending investment opportunities, but #Square is a credit card processor of a different animal. A while back they decided to offer Bitcoin trading and has since made over $37 million doing so. Not bad for a company with a net loss. You think there's Bitcoin trading in the Pentagon?

Binance is buying up stuff, namely, the Ethereum Trust Wallet.

#Coinbase customers in the UK are taking a pounding. They can now invest in Bitcoin with the British sterling.

It seems that Bitcoin mining is a threat to the Paris climate-change accord. Can you hear it?

PCCA: Dude, you're interrupting my breakfast.
Bitcoin miner: Is that a croissant?
PCCA: No, it's a greenhouse emission.
Bitcoin miner: Can I have a bite?
PCCA: Quit consuming all my energy and I'll give you two.

Meanwhile, in Canada, #Coinsquare launched support for XRP. Likely planning a trip to Paris.

Crypto Analysis

This section of today's digest gives you the best technical analysis and good reads. Enjoy!

Let's start with this one: Do #cryptocurrencies affect the global market? We better hope so.

A survey in the UK asked workers if they'd accept cryptocurrencies for their salary, and a lot of them said they would. They thought the surveyor said "salad."

Here's a look at Bitcoin, Ethereum, and #Ripple confluence. There's enough conflagration to go around.

Bitcoin's price put an end to the longest monthly losing streak since 2016. Is that something like a batting slump?

An #eToro senior analyst thinks #Litecoin is "massively" discounted. He's probably right.

One investor is itching to tell you why he left his hedge fund to take up crypto investing.

If you haven't noticed, there's a race to change Ethereum's economics. Who's going to win it, and who has a horse in the race?

That last picture is the first picture that has made me jealous of a horse.
Oh wait, hang on there have been others........

There have been other horses? ;-)

Yeah, I searched for horse race on Pixabay and that was one of the images that came out. It won over actual horse races. I think the horse won the blue ribbon because he managed to get that close to her lips.
