There was a slight uptick in the funds raised by ICOs in August compared to July. But the focus has switched from crowd sales to private sales - which I think is way more sustainable and makes more sense - is just an easier and more accessible way of funding projects.

Ripple as a company is a game changer. Curious how will xRapid launch affect XRP price.

According to Sagar Serbhai, Ripple’s head of government and regulatory relations for APAC and Middle East, xRapid launch is getting closer:

Now all the big boys are trading Litecoin Gemini, welcome to the club!

There are a lot of ICOs waiting to launch but are waiting for the right timing. I think once that happens Ethereum price will grow again.

Also once dapps gets more popular the demand will grow again (not as much as ICOs but it should help).

Finally a new exchange listing! Quant Network got listed on FatBTC.

Looking forward to new exchange listings. Would be awesome if it could get to OKex!

The reason for the drop in traffic is the drop in interest due to the bear market. Besides that, a lot of new sites have emerged that are much better quality than CMC.

I would suggest you check out CoinCodex instead.
