Stocks discussed: (NYSE:BB) (NasdaqGS:INTC) (NasdaqGS:FB)
BlackBerry (NYSE:BB) recently announced the release of
BlackBerry Optics Context Analysis Engine (CAE), a new endpoint detection and
response (EDR) solution, featuring “cryptomining and cryptojacking detection
for Intel-based [NasdaqGS:INTC] commercial PCs.” According to
the press release, the CAE “leverages unique CPU telemetry from Intel® Threat
Detection Technology (Intel® TDT) to provide enterprises and SMBs
unparalleled detection of cryptojacking attempts.” Josh Lemos, VP, Research
& Intelligence, BlackBerry, explained:
"Given the cost associated with mining
cryptocurrency and the payments of ransomware demands on the decline,
cryptojacking becomes an attractive option for threat actors to generate
revenue. With our new cryptojacking detection and response capabilities, we're
looking to make this practice a thing of the past, providing enterprises and
their employees with a turn-key solution that will enable them to thwart
cryptojacking attempts and ensure their software and hardware are used for their
intended purposes. The days of exploiting unsuspecting users for free CPU time
are over."
Singapore’s central
bank, the Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS), is eyeing cooperation with
China on a central bank digital currency (CBDC). An article from Blockchain
News
quotes Meng Wenneng, the Director of the MAS:
“The
Central Bank of China is very active in this area. Singapore and the Central
Bank of China have a lot of exchanges, and both sides are discussing the
CBDC-related landing scenarios.”
Furthermore,
according to an article on Cointelegraph, MAS managing
director Ravi Menon made comments urging for cooperation between Facebook’s (NasdaqGS:FB) Libra cryptocurrency project, and
Singapore’s own blockchain-powered interbank payment project “Project Ubin”:
“We should not reject the value of Libra, but should
have more discussions with them.”
Ebang, the Chinese
Bitcoin mining manufacturer, will “be listed on Nasdaq Global Market under the
ticker EBON later this week,” according to Cointelegraph. Ebang plans to
raise $125 million in its IPO, which if successful, could bring its market
value “close to $800 million.” Blockstream chief strategy officer Samson Mow
told Cointelegraph:
“This is great for the Bitcoin mining industry because
as more ASIC manufacturers go public we have more transparency and
accountability.”
Mow went on to
indicate that Ebang is “one of the more reliable manufacturers in this space.”
