Bitfinex Announces Strategic Collaboration with ODEM to Expand Cryptocurrency and Blockchain Education – PRNewswire
Together, they will launch a series of programs and courses aiming at increasing the level of education of both novice and advanced Bitfinex users who are interested in obtaining more knowledge about the technical features of digital tokens. In conjunction with these educational programs, ODEM will launch a full simulation of its education marketplace. Bitfinex will provide the liquidity for ODEM transactions, reflected through ODEM's smart contracts. This way, Bitfinex users purchasing educational programs on the ODEM Marketplace using the same credentials as on Bitfinex will be able to view their ODEM Token transactions on Bitfinex's order book.
"We're excited to be the first to market with completely mirrored fiat-to-crypto trades in our education and employment marketplace," said Richard Maaghul, CEO at ODEM. "Mirroring blockchain transactions allows users to view their payment activity reflected through our smart contracts in real-time and viewable through Etherscan.io. Transactions conducted by ODEM's Token simulation are fueled by liquidity provided by Bitfinex. With their support of the overall decentralized ecosystem and focus on community-driven social impact, Bitfinex was a clear driver for us."
Bitfinex users will be able to obtain access to all educational programs on the ODEM Marketplace directly from the platform's website. With several million users, Bitfinex can leverage these programs to obtain a holistic view of cryptocurrency markets and trends, while also further enhancing users' understanding of how the platform operates.
"Our collaboration with ODEM is a natural extension of our role as the premier trading platform worldwide," said Paolo Ardoino, CTO at Bitfinex. "By educating more individuals on the uses and value of cryptocurrency and the vital role it plays in powering the blockchain economy, we are encouraging greater understanding and adoption of digital currencies. We're confident that through continued, dynamic and relevant education provided by expert educators on ODEM's platform, Bitfinex users will receive an advanced service offering."
In the coming months, as more companies are opening up to cryptocurrency payments, ODEM will expand the ODEM Token payment gateway across the marketplace. ODEM Token payments will be available per-country, based on each country's regulatory environment. ODEM's fiat payment system and token simulation represent an onramp for use of the blockchain-based marketplace, expanding its value to all countries. During the simulation process, tokens will be mirrored on Bitfinex to reflect the fiat activity. New and existing ODEM users who open a Bitfinex account will be able to use the Bitfinex platform to create an Ethereum wallet address to secure their academic credentials and skill badges on the blockchain.
Bitfinex expects its cooperation with ODEM to be a natural extension of its continued support and commitment to creating a vital and thriving cryptocurrency ecosystem where all users are empowered to navigate the market in a safe and effective way.

This week in Cryptocurrency – Born2Invest
Crypto has had a big week, a number of big names in the finance space have weighed in on the viability of cryptocurrency and there have been a number of big regulatory shifts surrounding ICOs, while Europe is positioning itself to become the global cryptocurrency leader.
If youre in a rush the Born2Invest business news mobile app helps readers digest the crypto news summaries in small digestible chunks, helping them be up to date with the newest information in this field. Our team of experts puts the most important cryptocurrencies news at your fingertips.
Binance founder Changpeng Zhao said that President Xi Jinpings approval of blockchain would have a positive impact on the global cryptographic industry. According to Tom Lee of Fundstrat, Bitcoin will go through the same stages of development as technology companies from Silicon Valley and the Creator of Ethereum, Vitalik Buterin, believes that the shift from transaction fees, once block fees stop being issued, will create a number of significant security and verification problems for blockchains that utilize Proof-of-Work (PoW).
Joseph Lubin, founder of the Consensys startup, expressed his hope that the Chinese digital currency will interact with many blockchains, including the ethereum. While Mark Yusko, CEO of the Morgan Creek Foundation, believes that it is time to resume buying Bitcoins now. He stressed that investors should give up Amazon shares and increase capital investments in the first cryptocurrency.
John Macafee made a statement that cryptocurrency companies are not obliged to supervise everything that happens in the cryptographic industry. According to him, the fight against criminals should not fall within the remit of cryptocurrency companies.
The creator of the C++ programming language, Bjrn Straustrup, complained that his brainchild plays a key role in the functioning of Bitcoin. Speaking in Lex Freedmans podcast, Straustrup said that mining uses too much energy and that Bitcoin serves criminals. This opinion appears to be shared by the former U.S. Federal Reserve Chairman Alan Greenspan, it makes no sense for central banks to issue their own digital currency.
In contrast Bobby Li, co-founder of the Chinese cryptocurrency exchange BTCC believes Bitcoin will be able to grow in price up to $1 million, and the market capitalization of the first cryptocurrency will reach $8 trillion.
Almost half of the financial experts believe that Bitcoin will become the most efficient asset next year. This is evidenced by the results of a survey conducted by the analytical company Chainalysis.
Willy Wu, a well-known analyst, has prepared a chart that clearly shows which assets have the largest volume today. According to his estimation, more than 99% of all cryptographic assets on CoinMarketCap are illiquid.
The Weiss rating agency has published a series of posts on Twitter, where it tried to explain why the Cardano network is better than EOS.
Binance plans to add 180 new fiat currencies to its platform. Binance and HTC intend to release a cryptocurrency smartphone with Binance Chain blockchain support. The Exodus 1 Binance Edition smartphone will allow access to the decentralized Binance DEX exchange through a trusted execution environment called Zion Vault. Also, the Binance page in the Chinese social network Weibo has been blocked due to violation of the law.
Bittrex decided to return the frozen cryptocurrency funds to customers in jurisdictions where its services were banned. Bithumb Global has announced the release of a native token for the Bithumb Chain blockchain exchange. Bitfinex plans to expand its product range with options on cryptocurrency and digital staple coin secured with gold.
Several ICO-projects, which raised together about $40 million in 2017, failed to fulfill their obligations under the agreement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The companies agreed to return the money to investors or provide greater transparency in exchange for lower fines, but failed to comply with these requirements within the specified time frame.
The French central bank is looking for a blockchain analyst and engineer to deal with digital currencies and the application of blockchain to banking services.
The European Union will become a leader in the crypto sphere if it will develop a unified approach to regulating relations in the industry, as it is stated in the study of the Association of Financial Markets of Europe. The authors of the report emphasize that European countries need to speed up the work on creating a single legal framework, as the U.S. and China also want to become leaders in this area.

PayPal CEO Holds Bitcoin and Only Bitcoin – Cointelegraph
Dan Schulman, CEO of payment processor PayPal, revealed during an interview that he does indeed own Bitcoin (BTC).
On Nov. 20, Fortune reported that PayPal CEO Dan Schulman stopped by its offices where he discussed a variety of topics, including the reason for PayPals withdrawal from the Libra Association and whether he is the proud owner of any cryptocurrencies.
Schulman explained that PayPal withdrew from Libra because the company decided to put its attention elsewhere. According to the CEO it was a question of where do we want to put our attention, and what do we want to do today to advance our mission? He added:
You know, we think if we focus on our own roadmap, wed be able to advance financial inclusion faster than if we put all these resources against Libra.
Schulman added that Libra will start going down a road that his company remains very interested in looking at, and once Libra starts to figure things out, well take another look at where they are.
At the beginning of October, a PayPal spokesperson told Cointelegraph that the company had officially left the association, adding that they remain supportive of Libras aspirations and continue to look forward to dialogue on ways to work together in the future.
PayPals CFO John Rainey said in May that the firm has teams that are working on blockchain and cryptocurrency, and that they wish to participate in that technology in whatever form it takes in the future.
In the Fortune interview, Schulman was reluctant to share any significant details as to what exactly PayPal is working on in the sphere, although he was quick to point out that it is not necessarily competitive with Libra, adding:
We think theres a lot of promise to blockchain technology. Its intriguing to us, but it really needs to do something that the traditional rails cant do. Most people think that blockchain is about efficiency, but the system today is pretty efficient.
Regarding cryptocurrencies, the CEO said that it is still very volatile, and that they do not have much demand for it by merchants because merchants operate on very small margins. He said:
Until it becomes less volatile, it wont be a currency that is widely accepted by merchants on the web not the dark web, but the web.
As to whether he owns any cryptocurrencies himself, Schulmans answer was short and straightforward:
Yes, Bitcoin. [...] Only.

Cryptocurrency exchange that went dark with $16M in user funds only has $45k, report – The Next Web
A Canadian cryptocurrency exchange that was shut down earlier this month for allegedly misappropriating CAD$16 million ($12.1 million) in user funds only has $45,000 in hard assets, reports Global News.
As previously reported by Hard Fork, the B.C. Securities Commission (BCSC) shut down Einstein Exchange after looking into several complaints from customers unable to access their cash and cryptocurrency assets.
Grant Thornton Limited was appointed to seize the exchanges assets and return the allegedly missing funds to users. These included cryptocurrency, such as Bitcoin, the BCSC case documents said.
But, a British Columbia Supreme Court filing published yesterday reportedly says Grant Thorton has discovered that the business only has approximately $15,000 in cryptocurrency and $30,000 in cash.
The cryptocurrency exchange was incorporated by director Michael Ongun Gokturk in December 2017, during Bitcoins famous bull run.
In May this year, the BCSC launched an investigation into customer complaints.
Grant Thornton has reportedly issued notices to several banks across Canada and the US, whereGokturk and the exchange may have held investments or deposits, and seized shares in private companies.
Gokturk did not respond to Global News request for comment, nor has he replied to the allegations made in the BCSC case filings.
But, the Einstein Group has reportedly told Grant Thornton that it believes it owes clientsbetween US$8 and $10 million.
This deficit, the company says, stems from credit card and bank draft frauds. The majority of this loss is made up of cryptocurrency assets, it adds.
Einstein Exchange is believed to have served 200,000 users from all over the globe.Grant Thornton has so far heard from 200-300 people said to be affected by the exchanges collapse.

Cryptocurrency market update: $5 billion wiped off as Bitcoin bears take a breather – FXStreet
The cryptocurrency market is neither bearish or bullish during the European trading hours on Wednesday. The low trading activity is a break from two days of a continued selloff, especially for the major cryptocurrencies. Meanwhile, the market has lost $5 billion in the last 24 hours from $227 billion to $222 billion.
Bitcoin has been lethargic in its trading on Wednesday. From the opening price of $8,122, the price tested the hurdle at $8,150. However, the prevailing selling pressure has seen BTC adjust 0.7% lower on the day to trade at $8,066.
Looking at the 4-hour chart, Bitcoin has sustained a downtrend in a falling wedge pattern. As long as the pattern support remains intact, Bitcoin has the potential to correct higher in the coming sessions. However, as far as the MACD is concerned, bearish dominance could last longer. To completely avert declines below $8,000, Bitcoin must rise above $8,250 in the near-term.

This cryptocurrencys price just pumped 7,000%, but why? – Decrypt
While most of the cryptocurrency market is experiencing mild to moderate losses, one obscure cryptocurrency, known as Blockv (VEE) is defying expectations after pumping by more than 7,000% in the last day. The recent surge now makes Blockv the 33rd largest cryptocurrency by market capitalization, just behind Decred (DCR) and Zcash (ZEC).
According to the website, Blockv is a platform that is a platform that allows developers to create digital objects on the blockchain. However, despite launching almost two years ago, the platform failed to gain much momentum, while the VEE token has been on a near-constant decline throughout much of its existence.
Be the first to get Decrypt Members. A new type of account built on blockchain.
So, how did this pump come out of nowhere? Well, it currently appears that almost 100% of its minor $240,000 in daily trade volume can be attributed to a single South Korean exchange known as ChainX. The VEE/KRW trade pair on this exchange recently saw a colossal spike in activity. When volume suddenly spikes on a coin with a very low trading volume, it can send the price rocketingas we've seen before. So that was likely the cause.
This isn't the first time Blockv has witnessed such a meteoric surge. Back in December 2017, shortly following its token generation event (TGE), the cryptocurrency managed to climb from around $0.018 up to $0.326equivalent to gaining more than 1,700% in just five weeks. But it was short lived. Since then it lost 99.5% of its value.
And, with such low volumes this time around, the coin will find it hard to stay in the top 40.

Swedish gold-for-cryptocurrency scammer finally extradited to US – The Next Web
A Swedish citizen has been extradited from Thailand to the US. The Swede is facing charges of securities fraud, wire fraud, and money laundering based on a heinous cryptocurrency investment con hes run since 2006.
According to a US Department of Justice release, Roger Nils-Jonas Karlsson was extradited yesterday after being arrested in Thailand in June this year.
As Hard Fork has previously reported, Karlsson and his company, Eastern Metal Securities (EMS), were charged earlier this year following a complaint that claimed he had been running a gold-based investment scam.
Karlsson reportedly used a website to invite potential investors to buy shares in exchange for an eventual payout of in gold. However, the funds were never used to buy gold. Rather, they are tied up in real estate in Thailand, and not returned in any way to the investors.
The accused reportedly offered investments in shares of gold for $98 per share. Karlsson said each share would lead to a payout of 1.15 kilograms of gold. Thats insane, when you consider that the same weight in gold would cost you over $47,000 in the US at the time of writing.
The scammy website used by Karlsson directed investors to make investments in cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin.
According to the DoJ statement, Karlsson allegedly defrauded more than 3,750 victims of over $11 million.
It should also be noted that this indictment and extradition is to have Karlsson present in court to defend these allegations. He is yet to be found guilty of the above.
