The Dubai government has signed a new agreement with UK startup ObjectTech to create digital passports for entry into Dubai International Airport, say one of the busiest airports in the world with huge international passenger traffic.
The agreement will allow ObjectTech to work together with the Visa Immigration Department in Dubai to develop a solution that combines a biometric verification with blockchain technology. The goal is to put an end to checks (intentionally repeated) checks of passports that are now manually made for a faster and more reliable digital input, called seemless.

Scam? why? Dennis Rodman traveled to North Korea at the request of the Cryptomaniac PotCoin.

PotCoin aims to become an official payment mechanism for the legalized marijuana industry. The ambiguous legal status of the industry in places like the US (Marijuana is legal in some states but still illegal at the federal level) makes it difficult for businesses to form banking relationships.

The criptocoin is a fork of Litecoin, which was launched in January 2014. Like most digital coins, it has gone up and down since then. However, it has a thriving user community, and is traded on at least 10 exchanges. Its current marketcap is $ 26.8 million.

Coinbase startup is seeking to raise $ 1 Billion in funds, according to a Wall Street Journal report.

The Coinbase, exchange and digital currency portfolio, where you can buy, sell and store bitcoin and other crypto coins, has recently been talking to investors about ways to raise $ 1 billion in funds.

The financing round is not yet set, but the company aims to raise revenues by about $ 100 million, which would be the biggest investment for a bitcoins company, the paper added.

The price of bitcoin may have surpassed $ 3,000 for the first time, but that does not mean that the digital asset is leaving its historical volatility behind.
The bitcoin price fell sharply, losing more than $ 300 in a minute, going from $ 2,980 to a daily low of $ 2,650. The decline of more than $ 300 came just a few hours after bitcoin reached a new $ 3,000 historical top in the CoinDesk (BPI) bitcoin price index, which makes a weighted average of prices on major exchanges.
According to analysts, price surrender could announce that bitcoin's value diverged somewhat from its base.

Ethereum (ETH) trading volumes have outperformed Bitcoin in the last few hours, according to CoinMarketCap data. Where it is possible to see that ETH moved US $ 1,417 billion in volume compared to Bitcoin's US $ 1,328 billion.
All of this move that leveraged ETH may have a history in the great demand for its Blockchain technology and adoption by large companies, and accompanied a more upbeat price increase compared to the BTC, which increased only 1.62%. The fortunes of most major altcoins were reversed over the weekend, while the bitcoin price itself improved by taking some of the lost ground, which for investors appeared to be the long-awaited bubble awaited, which accelerated last week.

Blockchain technology is often compared to another technological invention like the Internet - and its impact must be much greater. Just as in the case of the World Wide Web, countries that decide to be bold and implement technology solutions before anyone else will have a significant competitive advantage.

Russia has the chance to become one of the leaders in the global IT industry. Even though the details of Putin's meeting with Buterin are kept secret, one detail has leaked - the president stands ready to give full support to the development of Blockchain technology, which would definitely result in a much larger increase in investment than Will enter the country, despite any restrictions and sanctions.

This idea is actively supported and promoted by Sergey Gorkov, president of VEB (Vnesheconombank), which suggests strengthening banks to navigate relations among investors who prepare for ICO's.

hum. so, no chance to invest in Btc?
Just Eth?

India can legalize Bitcoin in the near future, as feedback from citizens and companies seems to support the regulation of digital currencies.
Government of India asks the public about regulation.
The online comment section, which has been running for 10 days, has received almost 4,000 submissions since it was released on May 21.
The areas researched are: whether digital coins should be banned, regulated or observed. If they are regulated then what measures should be taken to ensure consumer protection, promote development and also which institution should monitor and regulate them?
He also asked what would be the effective self-regulation mechanisms and the methods that should be adopted to ensure consumer protection in these scenarios.

According to a Videcardz press release, both companies plan to release a version of their cards to satisfy the market for graphics cards made solely for mining.
Nvidia says it will launch a GeForce GTX 1060 with GP106-100 GPU, a custom edition for mining. This card would have no display connectors and probably will not support any games. According to our sources, these cards, unlike the normal editions, would have only 90 days of guarantee.
An AMD spokesperson:
The gaming market remains our top priority. We are beginning to realize that there is a solid demand for our Polaris-based offerings in today's mining and gaming markets, based on the strong performance we are delivering.

What could be worse than making lots of money and then losing it right away? The markets offer investors the opportunity to make money, but for many a market bubble is something scary.
And are we experiencing a bubble in the price of bitcoin? This questioning comes naturally after last week's panic that bitcoin suffered a price correction, dropping to about $ 2,000 when most investors targeted the $ 3,000 range. Many said it was the bubble bursting.
Over the course of that week as time passed, we saw that perhaps it was not a bubble. The currency returned to value practically in the same previous level.

NVO's goal is to remove the need for a third party to maintain customer assets, which is the case today with most exchanges. Thus, it proposes a P2P model for the exchange of crypto-coins and assets. The project was anticipated by the NVO team after observing how the current ecosystem can not meet the needs of the market.
The main advantage of a decentralized exchange is that crypto-derivatives and assets are not held by a third party. They are directly transferred from one owner to another in a P2P model. The NVO exchange is operated through two components:
The first is a multi-crypto-coin wallet, in which all keys are created locally on the user's device and never sent to any server.
Users control their private keys, can send and receive funds, export or encrypt the wallet with a password or SEED phrase. Developers can create and add new features through an open plugin system while keeping the wallet light.

The sale of Brave's Ethereum-based Token Basic Attention (BAT) generated about $ 35 million in less than 30 seconds. One buyer even bought 20,000 ETHs (about $ 4.7 million) in tokens - designed to monetize attention and create a new revenue stream for publishers. Brave has introduced a payment solution in bitcoin, which divides a quantity of BTC assigned by the user to their favorite sites - a gesture of goodwill for the valuable content they consume in an ad-free environment. Now Brave is expanding that service with the launch of a new Ethereum-based digital advertising platform built from the ground up not to be backed not by gold, or by mining power, but by users' attention.
Notably, it may not be just the Brave that will be able to use the platform because its code will be published on Github and made available under an open source license.
