Crypto Corner – June 29th



Bitcoin Dips Below $6K as Market Suffers, Coinbase Opens in Portland, OR and German Bank Offers Service for Crypto and Blockchain Companies

In the past 24 hours the cryptocurrency market cap has dropped from $246 billion USD to about $235 billion USD at press time, a loss of roughly $11 billion USD. According to data from CoinMarketCap, all but two coins, Tether (USDT) and RChain (RHOC), are in the red for the past day of trading. Bitcoin (BTC) itself has dropped below the $6000 USD barrier for the second time this year, having previously dipped on Sunday, June 24. At press time it is trading at $5910 USD. In an analysis of how the market may recover, CCN quotes BlockTower founder Ari Paul in a report today:

“Institutional money started trickling into cryptocurrency in mid 2017, but it’s been slower than many (including myself) expected. That doesn’t mean it’s not coming. There are a lot of pieces that need to come together, one big piece being third party custody. Custody isn’t binary. It’s not like Coinbase custody will launch and suddenly every pension will throw $100 million into BTC. It takes time for custody solutions to gain trustworthiness. But. I think we’ll have solid third party custody by September of this year.”

U.S. based crypto exchange giant, Coinbase, is opening an office in Portland, Oregon, according to an announcement today. The company also expects to add 100 jobs to the local economy within their first year.

The potential of cryptocurrency and blockchain technology is energizing a passionate group of people around the world, and we know those people are not all centralized in Silicon Valley. We signed a 7-year lease on the new Portland office and renovations will break ground in the coming weeks.

Germany’s solarisBank now allows crypto and blockchain companies in the European Economic Area (EEA) to conduct business with its new “Blockchain Factory”. One service the Blockchain Factory will offer is the “Automated Trust Account”, which is an automated escrow account for cryptocurrency marketplaces and eases the buying and selling of fiat currencies. solarisBank CEO Roland Folz explains the niche the bank will be filling:

"There is high demand from the blockchain world for a licensed partner that forms the technological and regulatory bridge to traditional banking - as a technology company with a banking licence we are the natural partner.”

Crypto Corner – June 28, 2018



Japan’s LINE to Launch BITBOX Exchange, South Korea Publishes New Regulations, Huobi Expands to London and Binance Opening in Uganda

Japanese messaging app, LINE, announced today plans to launch a cryptocurrency exchange called BITBOX. The exchange is set to launch in July 2018 and will be available internationally except in Japan and the U.S. The announcement boasts that BITBOX will offer “at least 30 different cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC)” and “15 languages except Japanese”.

South Korea’s top financial regulator, the Financial Services Commission (FSC) has published a new set of guidelines as a regulatory framework for cryptocurrency exchanges. Focusing on anti-money laundering (AML), the guidelines highlight the principles of Customer Due Diligence (CDD) and Enhanced CDD (EDD).

The financial company should confirm the identity information such as the real name of the counterparty of the financial transaction (confirmation of the customer), and if the customer is concerned about the money laundering activity, the transaction purpose and fund source should be additionally confirmed Confirmed customer)

Chinese crypto exchange giant Huobi will be expanding to London and has confirmed over-the-counter (OTC) trading to start in Q3 of this year, according to a report on Cointelegraph. Following the lead of exchanges like Binance, Huobi has made expansion into Europe one of its top priorities.

“London was selected as the first office in Europe, due to its preeminence as a global financial center and the largest cryptocurrency trading centre in the region with an active blockchain community and fast developing market,” the exchange wrote in praise of the local UK landscape.

In another exclusive with Cointelegraph, Changpeng Zhao, CEO and founder of Binance, has announced that the exchange giant will be expanding to Uganda. Zhao indicated the state of Ugandans relationship with banking and how it may be ideal for crypto adoption.

“Uganda [is a] really interesting situation, only 11 percent of the population has bank accounts. It’s both a challenge and an opportunity. So it may be easier to adopt cryptocurrency as a form of currency instead of trying to push for bank adoption. It’s an interesting experiment - Africa’s a big market, that’s why we’re there.”

NXT-ID (Nasdaq: $NXTD) Subsidiary FitPay® Provides Product Update on Flip – a Contactless Payment Device for #Bitcoin; @FlipToPay







MELBOURNE, Florida, June 28, 2018 – Fit Pay, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of NXT-ID, Inc. (NASDAQ: NXTD), today provided an update on the development of FlipTM, a new contactless payment device that enables Bitcoin holders to use the value of their currency to make contactless purchases at millions of retail locations.


Michael Orlando, COO of NXT-ID and President of Fit Pay, Inc. provided the following product update on Flip:

“We are very excited to report that the initial production run of the Flip payment device as well as the end-to-end testing of the digital wallet and Bitcoin exchange integration to enable the device have all been completed. This represents tremendous progress in bringing this unique cryptocurrency payment device to market. 

“Because Flip is a brand-new payment device, it requires card network and bank approval. We have been working hard to secure those approvals and now expect to ship the initial pre-orders within the coming weeks and go into mass production soon after.”

Flip’s near field communication (NFC) antenna allows it to transact payments at any retail point of sale location that accepts contactless payments. Flip stores a preloaded amount of U.S. dollars that are exchanged from the user’s existing Bitcoin account. Flip includes a digital wallet that allows the user to set how much value they would like their Flip to hold and when they would like it to reload. Flip does not need to be charged.

Consumers interested in purchasing Flip can pre-order the device at FliptoPay.com. The retail price for Flip is $29 with standard shipping included. There are account and exchange fees associated with maintaining a Flip digital wallet. Flip is currently only available in the United States. For more information or to order Flip, visit FliptoPay.com.
