Last Week's Best Crypto News - (1/1/17 - 1/8/17)

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago

I spend a lot of time reading about Blockchain, Cryptocurrency, and ICOs - so I make it a point to collect my favorite links throughout the week to share them with my friends and colleagues. Here are some of the items I came across in the last week that really caught my attention:

Bitcoin Is Coming to Your Bodega - I like this quote at the bottom of the article: "After just a few minutes in the 545 Deli on a recent evening, a pair of young African-American men came in to deposit $1. The machine told them to insert $2."

Coinbase CEO: We haven't made any decisions to add new assets to Coinbase or GDAX at this time. Any statement to the contrary is untrue. Be careful what you believe out there!

Ethereum breaks new record by reaching $1,000 for the first time.

The Criminal Underworld Is Dropping Bitcoin for Another Currency - Hint: it's Monero

IS YOUR STARTUP STALLED? PIVOT TO BLOCKCHAIN

Caution. Remember to set the gas limit and gas price correctly. Someone just spent $2.5k on fees and moved nothing.
