Laporan menunjukkan bahwa platform pembayaran bitcoin Indonesia Toko Bitcoin dan Bitbayer telah menghentikan operasinya sebagai tanggapan atas pengumuman baru-baru ini bahwa Bank Indonesia tidak akan mengenali bitcoin sebagai alat pembayaran. Meskipun posisi bank sentral Indonesia menjadikan model bisnis pengolah pembayaran kripto tidak lancar, pertukaran bitcoin Indonesia terus beroperasi dengan bebas.

Apa pendapat anda?

What?  They should inform us or at least ask for permission.  They got all the profit at the expense of our CPUs.  Criminals in disguise.

We found 220 sites that launch mining when a user opens their main page, with an aggregated audience of 500 million people. These people live all over the world; there are sites with users from the USA, China, South American and European countries, Russia, India, Iran… and the list goes on.

The ethical way for a website to earn money by mining through its audience’s computers is to ask the audience for permission first, and to allow them the possibility to opt out. Actually, such a practice could make mining even more ethical than ads. After all, nobody asks us if we would like to see ads on a website.

An investor lost more than $80,000 worth of ether while attempting to participate in the AirSwap ICO.

The public AirSwap ICO kicked off on Tuesday following a successful presale that raised $20 million for the ConenSys-backed startup’s decentralized token exchange. During the 23-hour event, investors could contribute up to 3.3 ETH, receiving a maximum of 3,300 AirSwap tokens (AST). Following the main event, AirSwap held a “L(AST) Chance Sale” that allowed contributors to purchase an uncapped number of the 11,900,000 AST left over from the main ICO.

During the uncapped sale, an investor attempted to send 1,700 ether — worth $574,000 at current exchange rates — to the AirSwap ICO, a sum that would have netted him or her 1.7 million AST. This investor paid about 237 ether — worth $70,000 at the time but $80,000 at present –to process the transaction.
