Singapore’s
GIC Contributed to Coinbase $300 Million Funding Round, Crypto-Related Money
Laundering Reports Increased Tenfold in Japan Last Year, Thai SEC Adds 3 New
Cryptos and Macron Advocates for Blockchain in Agriculture
Bloomberg reports that Singapore’s sovereign
wealth fund, Government Investment Corporation (GIC), was one of the investors
that contributed to Coinbase’s $300 million financing round last year. The
report notes the significance of a major investor like GIC, which has more than
$100 billion of assets in
over 40 countries, putting money into digital assets. The funding round gave
Coinbase a valuation of $8 billion, and Bloomberg notes that the crypto
exchange forecasts revenue of $1.3 billion for 2018.
There were over 7000 cases of
suspected money laundering linked to cryptocurrency reported to authorities in
Japan last year, according to a report from The Japan Times. This marks a tenfold increase
from the 669 reported cases between April and December 2017, when authorities
made it mandatory for crypto exchanges to report shady transactions. When all
types of financial transactions are considered, however, there were 417,465
instances of money laundering reported to police in 2018, most of which
involved banks and other financial institutions as opposed to crypto exchanges.
Thailand’s SEC has added three new
cryptocurrencies to their list of approved coins for ICO investment and
trading, according to an official statement. Previously Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Ripple (XRP) and Stellar (XLM) were included, but the new announcement
adds Bitcoin Cash (BCH), Ethereum Classic (ETC) and Litecoin (LTC) to the list.
Agri Digitale reports that French president
Emmanuel Macron has called for the EU to implement blockchain technology in the
agriculture industry to enhance product tracking. Quoting a loose translation:
"Let's do this in Europe, the vanguard
of agricultural data by developing tools that will track every product from raw
material production to packaging, and processing. The innovation is there and
it must be used in the agricultural world. It must be fully used because it is
at the service of shared excellence and it will serve the consumer."
Job recruitment site Hired reports that global demand for
blockchain engineers is up 517 percent this year.

XRP Discrepancy with Coinbase Framework, SoFi Partners
with Coinbase for Crypto Trading, Bahrain Announces Regulatory Framework and
Japan’s Mizuho to Launch Digital Currency on March 1
The announcement yesterday of XRP’s inclusion onto
the Coinbase Pro platform has met with some controversy. Blockchain newsletter Diar identified a
discrepancy between Coinbase’s Digital Asset Framework, which requires that
"the ownership stake retained by the team is a minority stake," and
Ripple, whose team “holds nearly 60% of the supply in escrow with a release
schedule.”
Speaking of
Coinbase, CNBC reports that the
crypto exchange giant has partnered with online finance startup SoFi to
facilitate crypto trading on the latter’s platform in the second quarter of
this year. Under the name SoFi Invest, customers will be able to monitor
prices, trade cryptocurrencies and take advantage of "active"
investing with the help of a broker and automated, or "robo" advising. SoFi CEO
Anthony Noto said:
"Our target audience wants to see what
the price of cryptocurrency is, and to buy it. They have a desire to do that
and in many cases they already are."
An official
statement
from their central bank reveals that Bahrain has completed final rules
regulating the crypto space. The legal framework covers licensing, governance,
minimum capital, control environment, risk management, anti money-laundering,
countering financing of terrorism, standards of business conduct, avoidance of
conflicts of interest, reporting,cyber security for crypto-asset services, and
supervision and enforcement standards. Khalid Hamad, the executive director of
Banking Supervision said:
“We will continue to enhance our regulatory
framework in order to keep pace with the innovations taking place in the major
financial centres around the globe. The CBB’s introduction of the rules relating
to crypto-assets is in line with its goal to develop a comprehensive rules for
the FinTech eco-system supporting Bahrain’s position as a leading financial hub
in the MENA region.”
Nikkei
Asian Review
reports that Japanese banking giant Mizuho Financial Group will launch a
digital currency service on March 1. Known as the J-Coin, the megabank’s crypto
will be pegged to the Yen. Mizuho will work with 60 other financial
institutions in the country comprising 56 million user accounts with digital
wallets that can store J-Coin.

XRP Trading Goes Live on Coinbase Pro, Swiss Bank
Partners to Allow Crypto Trading, Ukraine Develops CBDC and Electroneum Creates
$80 Android Phone that Pays Users in Crypto
Crypto exchange
giant Coinbase yesterday launched XRP trading on the
Coinbase Pro platform. The inclusion of XRP, currently the third largest crypto
by market cap according to data from CoinMarketCap, has been long
anticipated from Coinbase. XRP is not yet available to buy, sell or trade on
any other Coinbase platforms, but a separate announcement will me made for them
at a later date, according to the blog post.
Swiss bank giant
Julius Baer has announced a partnership with
crypto startup SEBA Crypto. The partnership will see Julius Baer offer a range
of new services, including storage, transaction and investment solutions for
digital assets. The partnership will come into effect once SEBA, founded in
April 2018, is granted a banking and securities dealer licence from the Swiss
Financial Market Supervisory Authority (FINMA). Peter Gerlach, Head of Markets
at Julius Baer said:
“At Julius Baer, we are convinced that
digital assets will become a legitimate sustainable asset class of an
investor’s portfolio. The investment into SEBA as well as our strong
partnership are proof of Julius Baer’s engagement in the area of digital assets
and our dedication to make pioneering innovation available to the benefit of
our clients.”
CCN reports that
Ukraine has developed a central bank digital currency (CBDC). The E-Hryvnia –
the digital version of the country’s official currency – has passed the pilot
phase from the National Bank of Ukraine, who said that they would now
investigate further uses for the token. The bank’s payment systems director Alexander
Yablunivsky explained that the E-Hryvnia was not a cryptocurrency:
“We
are not talking about cryptocurrency, we are talking about digital currency of
the central bank. It can be implemented on both the centralized registry
technology and the decentralized one. This is a completely separate issue,
which follows from the target model chosen.”
Electroneum, a
blockchain startup, has just introduced the M1, an Android
phone that rewards users with cryptocurrency. According to the announcement,
the phone, which only costs $80, was designed for people in developing
countries. Through cloud mining, the M1 allows users to earn up to $3 of
Electroneum’s native ETN token every month.
