Coinbase wants to add 5 more coins, but not Ripple
The American exchanger Coinbase has announced on Twitter account its intention to add to the list 5 new cryptocurrencies: Cardano (ADA), Basic Attention Token (BAT), Stellar Lumens (XLM), Zcash (ZEC) and 0x (ZRX). Obviously, coins are added to the market of Japan, where they are popular, since they will not be available for trading in the American jurisdiction until the SEC authorizes them.
A month earlier, on June 11, Coinbase was made a similar announcement of intent with respect to Ethereum Classic, prompting a rapid growth of the asset. According to the management of Coinbase, the publication of announcements makes the process of adding new coins to the exchanger more transparent and understandable for the regulator and bidders.
The Ripple currency (XRP) is not mentioned again in the announcements of Coinbase, despite the insistence of Ripple's head of Brad Garlinghouse. At the end of last year, Garlinghouse offered Coinbase for listing a fee in the form of a loan of $ 100 million in digital currency. At the CB Insights Future of Fintech June 19-21 in New York, said that Coinbase "should add to its listing XRP." The exchanger remains adamant, as the SEC has not yet expressed its opinion on the status of Ripple.

MasterCard has tested and patented the technology of cryptocurrency transactions
MasterCard Corporation has received a patent for the technology of binding digital currencies to accounts in fiat money and is fully prepared for carrying out cryptocurrency payments on bank cards. Pilot projects for the export of cryptocurrencies to MasterCard in Singapore and Japan have been recognized as successful. The patent application was filed in May and approved on Tuesday, July 17, by the US Patent and Trademark Office.
At the same time, the company's position on the whole of cryptocurrencies has not changed yet: the purchase continues to be subject to an increased commission, since it is equated to withdrawal of cash, and the priority of MasterCard remains the servicing of digital money issued by central banks or supported by a regulator.
In an interview with the Financial Times, MasterCard Executive Director Ari Sarker said that governments that are going to launch national cryptocurrencies can count on providing assistance from the company. "If a regulator is behind a crypt, and if its value is not in anonymity, then it will be interesting for us to work with such a digital asset," Sarker said.

Will South Korea and China simultaneously lift the ban on ICO conducting?
South Korea and China today signed an agreement on joint regulation and supervision of the cryptocurrency and ICO. The agreement was signed at the level of the South Korean Financial Supervision and Supervisory Committee of the People's Bank of China. This could mean the simultaneous lifting of the ban on ICO, which should occur after the approval of the recommendations of the G20 approximately in October 2018.
Earlier, the National Assembly of South Korea approved the following thesis: "We will create legal bases for the cryptocurrency trade, including the lifting of the ban on ICO and the establishment of the Standing Committee of the National Assembly." This position is supported by the ruling Democratic Party, and the Central Bank of South Korea received the government's approval for the creation of a national digital currency as part of a plan to phase out physical money by 2020.

How to distinguish a security token and a utility token?
Security token is just security. “Under SEC guidelines, if you make an investment, and something you expect to get a profit, and your investment is pooled with others’ in a common project, and you are not actively involved in managing that project, it’s a security.”
“A utility token distinguishes from a security token, which must be registered, by saying that it has a utility feature to it. Typically these tokens carry with them many of the property characteristics of the securities token.”
“Maybe there is a token out there, that is truly different than a security. But the chairman of SEC, said every ICO I have seen is security. ”
“We all know that Bitcoin couldn’t be a security because there was never an offering, there was never a point of time somebody said “I give you some bitcoin, you give me some money”, there was never a sale of any bitcoin to investors buy a developer for money. Bitcoin can’t be a security, but it did happen for Ethereum. Ethereum could be treated as a security. So SEC until recently was investigating is Ethereum a security. If it were security, the consequences would be catastrophic. For example, the SEC could have frozen all Ethers, you can’t transfer Ether anymore.”https://youtu.be/fj1Wpfs59T4
