🗞 Tron CEO Justin Sun Wants to Hire You to Organize His House

Token-funded blockchain project Tron is not only hiring while others cut staff, it’s recruiting an entourage for its founder.

Among the 10 open positions that Tron Group, the company behind the namesake cryptocurrency, posted on Wednesday, two were for aides to the 28-year-old CEO, Justin Sun. These hires would supplement the personal assistant he already has.

One of the jobs Tron is looking to fill is a senior executive assistant to the CEO, who would work with Sun’s personal assistant, mentoring the latter and making sure his scheduling is done properly.

🗞 Free Markets Don’t Create Free People: Bitcoin’s Tech Success Masks Its Failure

It’s difficult to know when humans first started securing or ‘encrypting’ messages to hide them from unwanted readers; the practice must, by human nature, be almost as old as written language, although examples are sparse. We know, for example, that Julius Caesar used a simple form of letter substitution to communicate with his generals, shifting each character three steps down the alphabet in order to scramble it.

The ancient Greeks, particularly the military-minded Spartans, used a device called a scytale, which allowed a hidden text to be read by wrapping a strip of parchment around a cylinder of a particular size so that the letters lined up in a particular order. Tales of the Greco-Persian Wars are full of secret messages, not least the story of Histiaeus, a commander who, according to Herodotus, shaved the head of his favorite slave and had it tattooed with a message urging revolution in the city of Miletus.

Cryptocurrency exchange Bitstamp has partnered with a Swiss bank to allow the bank’s customers to fund their dollar-denominated accounts with BTC as well as withdraw funds in the cryptocurrency. Deposited coins are converted to USD. Withdrawals are converted to BTC and transferred to the crypto wallets linked to client accounts.

Dukascopy’s clients can now send bitcoins to their accounts and the crypto will be converted to US dollars, which they can use to trade on the Swiss FX Marketplace. Clients can also withdraw funds back to their cryptocurrency wallets in the form of bitcoins.

🗞 SBI Crypto Subsidiary Supports Crypto Mobile Wallet in $15 Million Funding Round

Cryptocurrency mobile wallet BRD has raised $15 million in a Series B financing round supported by SBI Crypto Investment, according to a press release shared with Cointelegraph on Jan. 25.

SBI Crypto Investment, a subsidiary of the Tokyo-based SBI Holdings, contributed to the funding, which BRD states will help to accelerate international expansion and scale its technology platform.

🗞 Apple Co-Founder Steve Wozniak Declares He Sold All His BTC Holdings at $20,000 Peak

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak has said that he sold all of his Bitcoin (BTC) when the currency hit $20,000 in December 2017. Financial media outlet Business Insider Nordic reported on Wozniak’s comments on Jan. 24.

Speaking at the Nordic Business Forum in Stockholm, Sweden, Wozniak said that he first bought an undisclosed quantity of Bitcoin when the crypto was at about $700 because he “wanted to experiment with it.” He then explained what he planned to do with it:

“My goal was to travel to a place like Stockholm, and go to restaurants and hotels that only accept bitcoin, and only use bitcoin when I travel.”

So yesterday, we were staying just under the the support line without having the traditional Break Out to confirm the break. That Break Out came late but it finished to happen. So now the break is confirmed and the next objective is the support line at 0.31$. Let's hope we can avoid a touch on that line, even we have high propabilities to do it.

It's great that you are keeping us updated with the recent news.

Thank you @praditya.
I try to do my best :)

I pray that Ethereum will climb back up to at least 1,000 USD per 1.0. It has been a rough year for cryptos

I wish it would happen but I am less and less convinced unfortunately...

I was convinced Justin was looking for a house keeper until I read the body :)

Also, it's easy for Wozniak to claim he sold his BTC at the peak because he's a popular figure and would love to be known as being smart. I don't believe him, I would say such in his shoes.

Let's just hope that Steem heads north of a $1 soon. That's for the info. Blythe is a looker. 😁
