It says in the 2nd paragraph here: “The advertising of ICOS and token sales will be prohibited.” That’s very specific. My question is where does that leave Dash who are running online ad campaigns if you haven’t seen them already. And where does that leave me and Cryptoversity that sell courses? I know I’m not allowed to advertise on Facebook or Google because they banned crypto ads outright, where as Twitter are taking aim at token sales. The only real way to know is to keep an eye on our Twitter feeds and see what crypto ads are still running after tomorrow. 2:36 Story - The outlook for LitePay looks grim as the CEO ceases operations https://litecoin-foundation.org/2018/03/announcement-on-litepay/ https://www.litepay.us/ ----- 3:52 Story - The Monereo community sends a clear message that big miners should go elsewhere https://verifiedtopics.com/the-crypto-kill-switch-monero-is-going-to-war-against-big-miners/ Let me summarise this story for you in a few bullet points: Bitmain launched a new specialised ASIC miner called the X3 which works on the CryptoNite algorithm that Monero uses The Monereo community responded by saying no thank you, we’re going to make a few changes to our mining algorithm so the X3 doesn’t work anymore Oh and we’re going to make chances twice a year to make sure any money you invest updating the hardware goes completely down the toilet The Monereo community wants to keep Monero mining within reach of the average user with a decent amount of computing power The downside to this approach is that it also means that malware can infect your browser, borrow your processing power to mine Monero in the background and then have the coins you mine deposited into the attackers wallet So with the best of intentions there are some down sides. ----- 5:08 Story - A few statistics crom Tom Lee showing how crazy it is to lose faith in crypto https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GGberGnxiJk So far I’ve watched half of this before getting excited enough to decide to include it in today’s show. This is a recording that was uploaded on the 21st of February from the Upfront Summit. It’s a presentation by our old friend Thomas Lee who is a long time researcher and analyst who has cropped up a few times in the crypto headlines over the last couple of years. Anyway, this presentation is 23 minutes long and well worth a watch or a listen, especially if you’re in despair about Bitcoin dipping below $8k today. This presentation will return you to optimism based on just a few facts that he shares with you. His case for crypto is primarily based on the fact that millenials are the generation that will adopt crypto and then become the mainstream. 92% of millenials don't trust banks. That is according to a survey done in 2016 by Facebook Millennials are defined as anyone born 1981-2000 so that’s me Millenials as a generation outnumber the boomers Baby boomers peaked at 79.5m Millennials 95.8m, so we are the single biggest generation in history and we love ourselves a decentralised system or two Trust in the US government by citizens is at a 60 year low Whole bunch of countries trust their government even less than US citizens Greece, Italy, Brazil, Argentina, France, Spain, Lebanon, Mexico, Chile, Tunisia, South Korea, Colombia and Peru And no surprise these are the countries where digital currency is beginning to flourish So the more people lose trust in the government, the more people tend to adopt crypto So there’s just a taster, but you can understand why 50 year old regulators just don’t get this stuff. ----- 7:36 Story - Market Roundup https://coinmarketcap.com/ Charts provided by: Coinigy https://www.coinigy.com/?r=16171fe8
