Recap
Ethereum’s long-anticipated Constantinople upgrade has just been delayed after a critical vulnerability was discovered in one of the planned changes. The hard fork has now been set for block number 7,280,000, scheduled to hit on February 27th.
A U.S. Bitcoin ATM company, Coinme, has teamed up with international coin counter Coinstar to offer Bitcoin purchasing facilities in thousands of new locations. “Bitcoin is now accessible at your local grocery store via Coinstar kiosks, and this offering will make it even easier for consumers to participate in this dynamic new economy.”
In what seems to be one of the first major security breaches of 2019, New Zealand-based digital assets exchange Cryptopia was allegedly hacked this week. The platform reported the incident via Twitter on Jan. 15, mentioning “significant losses.”
