Moving forward, XOtika.TV will focus on diversifying to other types of live streamed content. Getting cam performers involved in Bitcoin, introducing them to the technology and teaching them how to use it is still going to be a key component of the site’s operation. But now, other types of content will be finding a good home on the platform as well. Several Bitcoin-themed shows are already hosted on XOtika, including “Bitcoin Uncensored” and “UnconfirmedTransactions”. http://fintechist.com/one-year-anniversary-xotika-tv-heralds-platform-expansion/ |

A lot of people use Bitcoin on an everyday basis, and it is unclear as to how taxation works in this regard. Additionally, the everyday consumer may have some difficulty when determining which lot of coins was used during particular transactions. It is quite a hassle to figure out these details, and the average tax professional will have an even harder time doing so. http://themerkle.com/irs-urged-to-clarify-bitcoin-taxation-guidelines/ |

Permissioned blockchains may make a lot of sense to certain people, but in the end, they are a far cry from open and transparent solutions. As long as centralized parties such as Fluent can decide who is in and who isn’t, there is still a trust issue. An open blockchain creates trustless environments, whereas permissioned distributed ledger makes it feel like enterprises have something to hide. http://fintechist.com/permissioned-distributed-ledger-technology/ |

Although iMesh tried to protect its users’ data by applying the MD5 hash function, the salted passwords were rather easy to break. It is not clear whether Peace cracked the passwords himself, or if a third party was involved in this process. We do know the database is up for sale on the deep web, though. http://bitcoinist.net/one-bitcoin-worth-51-million-hacked-imesh-accounts/ |

All in all, it is apparent for everyone to see Bitcoin is a global movement, rather than a localized effort. Bitcoin is accessible to everyone in the world, and can be bought through various ways. Moreover, Bitcoin trading is attracting investors and consumers from all over the world, which is a positive sign. http://fintechist.com/whole-world-gets-involved-bitcoin-trading/ |

The latest iteration of Cerber included a feature called “malware factory”, which creates different versions of this ransomware every 15 seconds. Doing so effectively bypasses installed security programs by potential victims. It is the first time such a critical feature is introduced to ransomware, and it makes the job of security experts even more challenging. http://bitcoinist.net/cerber-bitcoin-ransomware-now-includes-malware-factory-automation/ |

This news is rather surprising, especially when thinking how ChangeCoin – the overarching company – saw plenty of interest from investors in the not-so-distant past. Raising over US$4m throughout three different public rounds of funding is quite significant. However it appears as if the ChangeTip project was the primary source of interest to those investors at that time. http://fintechist.com/remaining-changetip-assets-still-looking-new-home/ |

Value is an intricate concept when it comes to Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. Every single coin, token, or asset has a fluctuating value, which has to be taken into account. But in the end, there is much more to these concepts, such as the free market model, global availability, no fees for receiving funds, and convenience once one has gotten acquainted with the Bitcoin concept. http://fintechist.com/looking-beyond-us11bn-bitcoin-market-cap/ |

But at the same time, Bitcoin is scary to a lot of people, and rightfully so. There is no handholding when one obtains their bitcoins, as the end user is entirely responsible for their money. There is no bank to bail one out if things go awry. Consumers and enterprises have to make hard decisions themselves, which is very unusual in this day and age. At the same time, this is a golden opportunity to experience complete financial freedom. http://fintechist.com/bitcoin-far-less-scary-people-think/ |

The USD Bitcoin market seems to be exploding as of late, as it now takes up 31.1% of all 24-hour trading volume. This is a rather unexpected number, and far more substantial than traders have seen in quite some time. Especially Huobi is pushing the pace, albeit there are still unconfirmed allegations regarding this exchange potentially faking their volumes. http://themerkle.com/usd-trading-volume-driving-the-bitcoin-price-above-650/ |

What sets Bitcoin apart from any other form of finance is how the individual user can fully control ownership of their coins at all times. Albeit one might raise the point funds kept in a bank account is in the control of users as well, that is certainly not the case. Consumers can send money to other accounts and withdraw money from the ATM, but they still have to go through the bank before gaining access to the money. http://fintechist.com/take-full-control-finances-bitcoin/ |

Powering up the swinging monkey trying to collect bitcoin with blockchain-based trading cards is a novelty concept. Powerups can be granted from within the SaruTobi game menu, where users can select cards from their Spells of Genesis deck. Albeit the implementation may look simple, it adds an entirely new dimension to the mobile Bitcoin game. http://fintechist.com/spells-genesis-cards-grant-boosts-sarutobi-bitcoin-game/ |

A new fox icon will appear below the “Amount” bar in the Jaxx wallet, which directs users to the Shapeshift view. There is a second method to access this new functionality, by entering ShapeShift into the address bar in the Jaxx wallet. This is just a small touch to make it more accessible, but it is a smart move by the developers. http://bitcoinist.net/jaxx-wallet-integrates-shapeshift-conversion-option/ |

Despite the hardship EBTM faced, the Belgian company remains a firm believer in the future success of Bitcoin in the country. Having to move away from the original Bitcoin ATM location is a setback, but Arnaud Kodeck has been working tirelessly on ensuring the device would find a new home. http://bitcoinist.net/ebtm-antwerps-bitcoin-atm/ |

The outset of this particular campaign on Startjoin is relatively simple: there is a minimum US$6,500 target for this crowdfunding campaign. If the campaign itself is successful, the campaign creator will be able to pay for his own college education. Attending college can be quite costly depending on where one lives in the world. http://themerkle.com/help-fund-the-first-cryptocurrency-scholarship/ |

Tessa88 is the name of the seller and a name that has been mentioned in most of the other breaches as well. This Russian individual claims to have obtained over 33 million credentials belonging to Twitter users. All of the passwords are available in plain text, and the information envelops email addresses and usernames as well. http://bitcoinist.net/hacker-sells-twitter-data-dump-on-deep-web-for-10-bitcoin/ |

Several new updates have been made to the platform, starting with a more powerful API. Such an API allows developers to use this blockchain-based notary service in an industrial manner. For example, it is now possible to execute Ethereum settlement, and all of the Stumpery records are embedded in the Ethereum blockchain as well. Bitcoin and Ethereum are two open blockchains, and it is positive to see companies use both solutions at their disposal. http://themerkle.com/stampery-announces-more-powerful-api-and-new-interface/ |
