Satoshi’s Treasure $ 1 Million Worth of Bitcoin

A new alternate reality game called Satoshi’s Treasure has hidden the keys to $1 million worth of bitcoin across the globe, forcing players to collaborate and improvise.

Revealed to CoinDesk, the keys to this bitcoin wallet were divided into 1,000 fragments, requiring a minimum of 400 key fragments to move the funds. Players can collect and unravel clues any way they want, even selling leads if they choose.

The game itself has no rules.

Good luck to everyone on the hunt!

eToro Launches Full Crypto Exchange

The blockchain subsidiary of social investing platform eToro has launched a cryptocurrency exchange along with eight branded stablecoins. The new platform is being managed by eToroX, which is regulated by the Gibraltar Financial Services Commission, the firm announced Tuesday.

Trading in six cryptocurrencies will be offered at launch: bitcoin (BTC), bitcoin cash (BCH), ether (ETH), XRP, litecoin (LTC) and dash. Also available will be 37 crypto-to-fiat pairs, for example BTC/USD and XRP/GBP.

Microsoft and Ethereum Group Launch Token-Building Kit for Enterprises

The Enterprise Ethereum Alliance (EEA) and Microsoft have corralled the major blockchain providers behind a new project to help businesses design and create the right sort of crypto tokens for their particular needs.

The idea is to use a workshop with business people to describe a token completely that services their business requirements. That token itself is composed of reusable components so another group can use those same components to define a slightly different token without redefining all the things that initial group did — so it creates this framework.

Craig Wright And #Hodlonaut

There’s a legal conflict brewing between outspoken members of the bitcoin community and the controversial computer scientist who claims to be the cryptocurrency’s creator.

It’s a complex story to untangle, but it boils down to Australian computer scientist Craig S. Wright — who has claimed to be bitcoin’s pseudonymous creator since 2016 — sending out legal letters to those community members that have called him a “fraud.”

You probably all have seen it already on Twitter or somewhere in the crypto lands, it’s a good story but too long to write it out completely. I am glad Coindesk already did just that, so if you are interested in the full story read Coindesk’s one here.

Binance, Kraken and Others Delist Bitcoin SV

After the attack on #Hodlonaut by the Bitcoin SV camp the crypto community united as one and one of the people that stepped in was CZ from Binance. He publicly called Craig Wright a fraud and warned him to delist Bitcoin SV if he kept going with his attacks towards other Bitcoin community members and making these fraudulent claimsSi.

Craig Wright kept going and CZ kept his promise and made an announcement about delisting Bitcoin SV. Others joined forced, Shapeshift and Kraken also announced to delist Bitcoin SV from their exchanges.

That’s it for now. All the best to everyone!
