What If the Cryptocurrency Rally Does (Not) Happen before the End of the Year?

What awaits the cryptocurrency market in the last weeks of the outgoing 2018? October has come, and, as the chief analyst for ThinkMarkets U.K. Naeem Aslam noted, the current situation resembles the beginning of the 2017 bull market. Even the fact that Bitcoin is struggling to break through resistance levels at $6,800 and $7,000 at the beginning of October while keeping the support line at $6,000 is very similar to what it was 12 months ago. Then, Bitcoin cost a little more than $3,000, and in the end, soared to a level of $20,085 on December 17.

Stablecoins Are All the Rage in Crypto Space

“Now, in the middle of 2018, it seems that every second project is a stablecoin,” says Havven founder Kain Warwick. At the end of September, Blockchain published a study on this rapidly developing cryptocurrency market niche. The authors note that the number of stablecoins has increased significantly over the past 12–18 months and more than a dozen different companies have announced plans to launch stablecoins by the end of this year.

FIFO: The Process of Crediting BIP after the End of the Early Access Campaign

To strengthen the security of the process of crediting the coins and ensure support for Minter network first users, we have designed the following protocol:
• Validator pools will be the first to receive the coins. There are only about 20 such pools, and the number of public ones is even lower. That’s why it will be enough for us just to check all transactions once more and transfer the corresponding volumes to the pools. The process will take 2 to 3 days.
• After that, a special team will start checking all incoming non-pool transactions, contact users, and help them get their BIP. At this stage, it will be essential for us to make sure that everyone understands how to claim their coins, where to transfer them, and how to protect their holdings. The process will take 1 to 2 weeks.
• Once we confirm that 80% of Campaign participants transferred their coins, pools fulfilled their obligations, and all users got support and consulting, we will start an airdrop that will last for months.

A few pieces of advice:
• If you don’t want to delve into the network specifications yourself, the best option is to purchase BIP through a pool. Pools are run by professional teams who have prepared great participation mechanisms, including those involving bonuses.
• If you want to become one of the first BIP owners to set up your own masternode or become a delegator, the sooner you sign up for the Campaign, the better. In a young network, every day matters—he who starts earlier gets most of it.
• If you plan to create a project based on Minter—for example, an exchange or a wallet—and can’t satisfy your needs under a 10 BTC limit, reach our team at @MinterPSBot so that we could help you plan everything in advance and also provide consulting on the network’s architecture and capabilities.

The general principle, FIFO (First In First Out), implies that those who will be the first to participate in the Campaign will also be the first to receive the coins and start working with them.

Regulation of Cryptocurrency in Lithuania: Tokens as Securities

In November 2017, the finance ministers of Latvia, Estonia, and Lithuania signed a memorandum on joint efforts to develop the financial sector. One of the points of the document included support for “innovations in the capital market” and regional fintech solutions, including distributed ledger technology. Thus, the authorities of the Baltic countries officially designated blockchain and cryptocurrency as part of financial technology.

Minter Bonuses and Airdrops

We will distribute the unrequested BIPs once the sale ends, proportionally to the buyer’s participation. Hence, many will receive bonuses that they will be able to activate during the first month after the launch of the network.

Final amount to be credited will be formed from the following sources:
• Purchased BIPs
• Bonuses in unrequested BIPs
• 25-percent bonus for Early Access (for those who sign up before October 19)
• 10-percent referral bonus for inviting friends
• Pool bonus (for those participating through a pool; up to 25%)
• Airdrops

We think that many users will eventually get a total amount of bonuses equal to the amount they purchased.

Remember this post as tomorrow we will make a very interesting announcement regarding bonuses!

All That’s New Is but Well Forgotten Old: Austria Has Released Bonds on Blockchain

Government bonds are papers confirming that a government of a certain state owes a certain amount of money to the holder of this security. Having introduced the blockchain for issuing government bonds, Austria became the third country, after Australia and Thailand, to decide on such an innovation. Whether such a decision could significantly affect the bureaucratic mechanisms and make the process of concluding contracts quick and comfortable for everyone is analyzed in our article.

Participation of Funds in Minter Private Sale

As we informed you earlier, we will allow the funds (companies representing the interests of groups of people) to participate in our project in the very last moment to ensure the maximum number of users gets access to the Campaign. Despite the usual practice of selling large stakes to the funds at mind-blowing discounts, we will do a slightly different thing. All bonus formats of participation end on October 19 and the funds are not eligible to qualify. Starting October 25, however, we will remove the upper limit of 10 BTC and allow the funds to buy in.

To participate as a fund and get a special invitation, fill out this form:
https://goo.gl/forms/uYPhoh63K0pCmoGs1

Priority will be given to the 50 BTC applications because of decentralization.

Not Only Telegram: Three Giant Messengers That Are Launching Their Own Blockchains

The Telegram ICO did not become a record in the number of funds raised, as this nomination is still in the hands of EOS. The blockchain project of Telegram can, however, be called the most mysterious with certainty since the first rumors about the TON platform appeared last December, two reports for the SEC about private sales, two white papers, an agreement with investors, and not one official statement about it all. Not all projects are so secretive. DeCenter considered the blockchain platforms of three large instant messengers other than Telegram.
