Stocks discussed: (TYO:4755) (TYO:8473)
The majority of the
top 100 coins listed by market cap are in the green at press time, according to
data from CoinMarketCap. Bitcoin (BTC) leads, as usual,
with a $92 billion USD market cap and a trading price of about $5220. And
ranking second and third are Ether (ETH) and XRP, with market caps
of $17.5 billion and $13.9 billion, respectively.
Japanese e-commerce
giant Rakuten (TYO:4755) has announced that account
registrations are now open for its new cryptocurrency exchange service, Rakuten
Wallet. The service is currently available to customers who already have an
account with Rakuten Bank. An excerpt from the press release describes an
AI-powered customer support service and an upcoming mobile app for Rakuten
Wallet:
“In addition, we have enhanced support for customers by
introducing an automatic response chat service that employs AI technology that
responds to customer inquiries 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. In addition, we
plan to provide a smartphone app so that you can deposit and withdraw from the
crypto asset trading account and trade in crypto assets (virtual currency)
regardless of location.”
U.S. crypto
exchange Kraken has decided to follow Binance
and ShapeShift in delisting Bitcoin SV (BSV). The decision was made following a
Twitter poll, in which 71 percent of respondents voted “Yes” on the question:
“Should Kraken delist Bitcoin SV (BSV)?”
Over the last few months, the team behind Bitcoin SV
have engaged in behaviour completely antithetical to everything we at Kraken
and the wider crypto community stands for. It started with fraudulent claims,
escalating to threats and legal action, with the BSV team suing a number of
people speaking out against them. The threats made last week to individual
members of the community were the last straw.
Elsewhere, Cointelegraph reports that
financial services company SBI Holdings (TYO:8473) will delist
Bitcoin Cash (BCH) from its crypto
exchange platform in June this year. Cointelegraph explains:
Yoshitaka Kitao,
CEO and representative director of SBI Holdings, has previously criticized bitcoin cash’s hard fork, which took place in November 2018. As
Cointelegraph reported, Kitao apparently has a connection with the BSV founder,
with Wright having revealed their close relationship in a tweet in January,
demonstrating that he and Kitao spent time together, and claiming that he
treats Kitao as “a friend and man I respect a lot.”
