Fwd: Crypto got Zucked.

Facebook launches cryptocurrency Libra.

FRIDAY JUNE 21, 2019 Hi jon,   The rumors have finally been confirmed. Facebook is launching a cryptocurrency. The announcement came as expected Tuesday and sent shockwaves around the globe. Here's what we know so far: Facebook announced the release of a cryptocurrency, Libra, with the goal of enabling "a simple global currency and financial infrastructure that empowers billions of people." The Libra Blockchain is being launched as a permissioned blockchain but is planning to transition to a permissionless blockchain over time. Libra is backed by a mix of stable assets, "including bank deposits and government securities in currencies from stable and reputable central banks." Unlike other stable coins pegged to the U.S. Dollar, Libra isn't backed by one single currency, instead, the average of many. The cryptocurrency is governed by a non-profit (Libra Association) based in Geneva. The Libra Association will be made up of 100+ "geographically distributed and diverse businesses, non-profit and multilateral organizations, and academic institutions." Each founding member will have no more than 1% of the vote, including Facebook itself. Members will be asked to invest $10M, along with $280,000 of annual costs. A user-facing crypto wallet to store and transact Libra, Calibra, is being released. Facebook claims their advertising business will not be a part of Libra in any way, and that data collection will remain separate from the association.   The Fall Out:   In the days following the release, the reviews of the cryptocurrency have been mixed. Many cheered on Libra, calling it positive for crypto adoption, while others expressed outrage. French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire led the charge, saying "it is out of question [that Libra] become a sovereign currency. It can't and it must not happen." German member of the European Parliament Markus Ferber piled on, calling Libra a "shadow bank" and a handful of U.S. senators also objected, saying Facebook is already too big and can't be trusted with users' financial data. As a crypto advocate, I believe the response from regulators says something good about Libra. While their concerns are justified, so is Facebook's mission to create a more democratized, global, and digitized economy.   The problem? Trust.   The only solution to this is a cryptocurrency that operates free of a centralized company or group of companies.   Oh, wait, that already exists!       Claim Your Free Bitcoin Rewards!

Fwd: Libra lottery

June 24, 2019 NO LOSERS:  To understand how early investors in Facebook's new Libra blockchain will make money over time, it helps to dig into a new lossless lottery going live on ethereum mainnet. After PoolTogether tickets are sold, the funds are put into the ethereum-based money market protocol, Compound. There, it collects interest over the life at the pool and, at the end, one ticket earns the total interest. But everyone else gets their money back, too – ergo, there are no losers. Libra is also designed so that a select few capture the interest earned on money tucked away by the vast many. Full story SWIFT 4 DLT: Financial messaging giant SWIFT has revealed it will allow blockchain firms to make use of its Global Payments Innovation (gpi) platform for near real-time payments. In a report published late last week, SWIFT said that, following a successful proof-of-concept with R3's Corda platform, it would "soon be enabling gpi payments on DLT [distributed ledger technology]-based trade platforms." Claiming that gpi would resolve the "payment challenges" faced by DLT platforms, the firm explained that payments using the system would be initiated within trade workflows and be automatically sent on to the banking system. Full story ANDROID MINER: A new cryptocurrency-mining botnet has been detected exploiting Android Debug Bridge ports, a system designed to resolve app defects installed on a majority of Android phones and tablets. The botnet malware, as reported by Trend Micro, has been detected in 21 countries and is most prevalent in South Korea. The attack takes advantage of the way open ADB ports don't require authentication by default, and once installed is designed to spread to any system that has previously shared an SSH connection. SSH connections connect a wide range of devices – everything from mobile to Internet of Things (IoT) gadgets – meaning a lot of products are susceptible. Full story BANKING THREAT? The Bank for International Settlements (BIS), often described as the bank for central banks, has issued its annual report for 2019, expressing concerns over the expected disruption as big tech firms like Facebook enter the financial space. The report looks at the risks and challenges posed by companies such as Alibaba, Amazon, Facebook, Google and Tencent, rather than paying lip service to the potential benefits of this building fintech revolution. In a somewhat telling statement, BIS reveals its fears that banks could lose ground to the new big tech disruptors saying: "Regulators need to ensure a level playing field between big techs and banks, taking into account big techs' wide customer base, access to information and broad-ranging business models." Full story CRYPTO LAND: Propy, a blockchain based real estate platform, has announced the sale of a $1.6 million San Francisco property owned by Michael Arrington's CrunchFund. "The traditional real estate sale process is arduous and broken. Buyers, sellers, and their professional support struggle with overly complex interactions – it's an opaque, dated, and unnecessarily lengthy process, full of risks such as wire fraud," said Arrington, founder of TechCrunch. Full story RECORD QUARTER?: Bitcoin's bull market looks entrenched with 165 percent gains so far this quarter. Signs of temporary bull exhaustion, however, have emerged over the last 48 hours with the price struggling to hold onto moves above $11,000. As a result, a minor pullback toward $10,000 could be seen in the short term. The outlook will remain bullish as long as the price is trading above $9,097 (May 30 high). Full story LIBRA REACTION: The introduction of Facebook's Libra cryptocurrency might force China to rethink its policies toward digital assets, reports the South China Morning Post. Citing analysts and one unnamed advisor to the People's Bank of China, the Post said that Facebook's apparent goal in challenging the global banking system with its new token, which will be pegged to a basket of fiat currencies and government securities, could "force China to rethink how it deals with the realities of the digital world." The fact that the libra could make it easier for individuals to send payments "could undermine Beijing's efforts to curb capital outflows" is one issue.

The problem with cryptocurrencies is that they're all pumped up with hot air. Facebook's Libra is the best example yet. Even its name, taken from the zodiac, is based on the element of air. Here's what's hot and what's not about Libra and why it's true to its element. In Astrology air is the element that connects all other elements (earth, fire and water), even though it might seem less relevant, invisible as it is. Facebook, with its constellation of 2.4 billion active users, wants Libra to be the connecting element, as in money, between buyers and sellers of everything up in cyberspace and down here on earth. Towards that end, Facebook isn't concocting Libra out of thin air, like, say, Bitcoin. Not even close... Here's what else I'm following...

Please Note: Any performance results described herein are not based on actual trading of securities but are instead based on a hypothetical trading account which entered and exited the suggested positions in securities at the times and prices referenced. Hypothetical performance results have many inherent limitations. In fact, there are frequently sharp differences between hypothetical performance results and the actual results that may subsequently be achieved. One of the limitations of hypothetical performance results is that they are generally prepared with the benefit of hindsight. In addition, hypothetical trading does not involve financial risk, and no hypothetical trading record can completely account for the impact of financial risk in actual trading. For example, hypothetical trading examples cannot possibly take into account the impact of liquidity or buyer and seller demand, and do not allow for slippage and associated trading costs and concerns. One must be aware of the risks and be willing to accept them in order to invest in the markets. One should never trade with money that one cannot afford to lose, and one must accept that there will be losses, and one must be able to sustain these losses, both from a financial as well as an emotional perspective.
