1  Bitcoin / Press / [2020-12-07] India’s Taxman Put Bitcoiners on the Hot Seat as Bitcoin Price Keep on: December 08, 2020, 03:22:27 AM
As the price of bitcoin (BTC) and altcoins continue to “moon,” India’s tax agency, the Central Board of Direct Taxes (CBDT) is reportedly making active plans to clip the wings of crypto tax evaders in the country.

Per sources close to the latest development, the nation’s Income Tax Department has obtained the transaction history of crypto traders that executed trades via banking channels prior to the apex bank’s ban on fiat-to-crypto trading in 2018.

While crypto taxation is yet to become a thing in various jurisdictions across the globe, as authorities continue to look for ways of making crypto investors file the correct taxes on their bitcoin trading gains, Naimish Sanghvi, a top Indian crypto influencer has taken to Twitter to reveal that bitcoiners in the state have been paying taxes on their crypto profits contrary to reports.

Will it happen to other countries as well?
2  Economy / Speculation / Kevin O’Leary: “I Would Put up to 20% of my Portfolio [in Bitcoin]” on: December 03, 2020, 11:25:18 AM
O’Leary Would Put up 20% of his Portfolio Into Bitcoin if Major Regulators Support it

He further stated that he believes that the world really needs currencies like Bitcoin. However, his main doubts over investing anything from 1% to 2.5% of his portfolio into Bitcoin is the lack of support from the government. O’Leary also elaborated that, if regulators were to support digital assets, then he would think of investing a more substantial portion of his portfolio into crypto.

Quote
If you told me the Swiss and the Euro and the American and the Canadian, Australian governments agreed to whatever that is, I would put up to 20% of my portfolio in it.

O’Leary’s various comments clearly show a comprehensive change of heart, from opposition to acceptance of Bitcoin. In the same 2019 CNBC interview, O’Leary had also stated that he believes that the digital currency is garbage due to difficulties caused by its volatility, which he still worries about even today.

Besides O’Leary, another Shark tank investor Barbara Corcoran had also openly expressed her point of view on Bitcoin, stating that buying real estate with Bitcoin is common sense.

Thoughts on this Shark Tank, everyone?
3  Economy / Speculation / Bitcoin Price Rally to Over $19,800 Likely Because of “Smart Money” on: December 02, 2020, 03:19:10 AM
Bitcoin Price Rally to Over $19,800 Likely Because of “Smart Money”

Preceding the Bitcoin price pump to over $19,800 was an influx of new capital and investors, data from GlassNode reveals.
The Bitcoin Price Pump

The Bitcoin price has since contracted to around $19,400 at the time of writing but price action favors bulls.

After last week’s decline–that saw prices slide to $16,555 before reversing to spot rates, the entry of new investors is bullish for Bitcoin price and the crypto scene.
Focus on On-Chain Activities

Differentiating the current Bitcoin rally from previous pumps are bullish on-chain activities and the influx of smart money.

Not only is the network hash rate increasing months after miner rewards were slashed—hinting at the resilience and miners’ expectations of better prices, but the spike from $13k to $16k saw the largest wave of coins changing hands.

Besides, more users flew in, hoping to capitalize on price increments.

With investors shifting gears, looking for entries and tuning their positions––allocating funds for the digital asset, there was a firm foundation for the current upswing and potentially, the printing of a new 2020 high.

Accompanying this rally are the outflows from exchanges.

According to Willy Woo, this withdrawal of coins out of centralized ramps was organic. Bitcoin buyers reportedly scooped an unprecedented number of coins as prices temporarily corrected in mid-November. 
Institutional Flow to Bitcoin and Gold Comparison

Increasingly, crypto and Bitcoin is now being re-assessed by different institutional-grade investors.

Citing the coin’s superior characteristics and its fixed supply, Bitcoin is now a viable alternative to gold.

However, the gold market is one of the deepest and most liquid with over $7 trillion in average daily trading volumes.

On the other hand, the total crypto market has a market cap of $581 billion as of Nov 30. Bitcoin, the most valuable digital asset, is dominant and has a market capitalization of $389 billion.

Even so, it has been immensely successful since the concept of decentralized and internet-native digital currency is roughly 12 years old.

At spot levels, Bitcoin is more valuable than JP Morgan and most leading global banks in the United States and China.

4  Bitcoin / Press / [2018-11-08] Are We Approaching ‘Big Money’ Conditions in Cryptocurrency Market? on: November 12, 2018, 01:19:53 PM
The absence of High Net Worth Individuals (HNWIs) has kept crypto markets hovering at a relatively modest $220 billion total market cap. However, recent stability in bitcoin prices poses the question of whether markets are growing to be mature enough for serious money to make an entry.

About CyberVein

The CyberVein network is the first Distributed Ledger System allowing for the decentralized management of complex databases on the blockchain itself, without requiring centralized storage providers. This novel implementation of blockchain technology is only possible thanks to improvements to DAG ledger design developed by CyberVein.

Just as the Internet is a public network of networks, CyberVein is a public network of immutable databases, on which information can easily be traded, interconnected, and transformed into structured knowledge.
Why do we need decentralized databases?
Maintaining databases with qualities that are normally attributed to blockchains -meaning immutability, security, and transparency - makes enormous sense in a variety of industry, research and governance use cases.
Players in the global market often need to share information and rely on data they pool and maintain collectively. Supply chain management is one obvious scenario, but there are many more. This can be very problematic if these players have good reasons not to trust each other. Immutable, decentralized databases solve this gracefully.
For academia, research and the public sector, use cases are virtually limitless. Scientific processes such as peer review can be revolutionized in the truest sense of the word, while making collaborative research much more efficient.
Smart governments and smart cities rely on the collection of vast amounts of data generated by the public, providing city administrators with enormous power and knowledge which aren’t necessarily shared with the public. CyberVein allows this data to be stored in public, decentralized databases, protecting it from malevolent manipulation as well as from attacks, while providing an immutable record of how said data is processed and used.
 
What is CyberVein’s Larger Vision?
 
CyberVein’s eventual goal is to create a universal “Internet of Data”, inter-connecting databases of entire industries, and hence increasing the overall value and connectivity of human knowledge.
 
CyberVein databases are equipped with innate monetization functions, allowing owners of data to define its value. With this, CyberVein incentivises the sharing and trading of data - even among competing entities or organizations that otherwise wouldn’t have the budget to maintain large data sets in the public domain.
 
Technological Innovation
 
Traditional blockchains are not designed to store vast amounts of structured data, especially if this data is being constantly processed by many participants in parallel. In order to build a network of decentralized databases, CyberVein has reinvented fundamental blockchain principles, transforming distributed ledgers into a powerful data management network.
 
To optimize DAG ledgers for the handling of databases, CyberVein improves on Directed Acyclic Graph architectures by introducing a resource conserving consensus algorithm, as well as a smart contracting language and virtual machine, optimised for the management of massive amounts of data.
