People are now mostly focusing and talking about Bitfinex , Tether case and yesterday price crash But there are more interesting news from New York also That article can be also good example of battle between crypto and banks,Wall Street https://www.ccn.com/federal-judge-rule-crypto-is-cash-chase-bank-lawsuitBy CCN.com: A Manhattan federal judge will have to decide whether crypto is cash in what would be a landmark decision for the budding industry. The ruling would have major implications for what laws and regulations cryptocurrencies are subject to. In April 2018, Chase customers sued the bank. The plaintiffs accused Chase of charging surprise fees after it abruptly stopped letting customers buy crypto with credit cards and began treating them as cash advances.
To make matters worse, Chase Bank refused to refund the extra fees it had charged after customers complained.
The lead plaintiff in the lawsuit, Brady Tucker, says Chase charged him $143.30 in fees and $20.61 in surprise interest charges for five crypto transactions he did between January and February 2018. After he called to dispute the charges, Chase refused to refund the money.
Moreover, Brady Tucker says he’s not only victim. In his lawsuit, Tucker says hundreds or even thousands of Chase customers were assessed these same fees — again, without prior notice.
Similar lawsuits over “cash-advance fees” for crypto purchases were filed against Bank of America in California and State Farm Bank in Illinois. The judges in those cases did not rule on the question of whether cryptocurrencies are cash, and did not dismiss the lawsuits.
Bitcoin fans point to these lawsuits over shady bank fees as examples of how hypocritical and dishonest legacy banks are, even as they slam the crypto industry as sleazy and illegitimate

Below article from my favorite press showing what can be reason of crypto currencies market rise.I can add that exactly 28 March Mario Draghi confirmed that yet another EBC QE During QE cycle investors are making huge money by investing in emerging assets Bitcoin specially now is most profitable asset in the world TRUMP CALLS FOR EXPANSIONARY POLICY The crypto rally matched shoulders with the stock market performance in the mainstream. The S&P 500 Index last week reclaimed its January 2018 highs. Though the S&P 500 and the cryptocurrency market do not correlate directly, both the markets lately reacted to what was happening in the US economic space.A potential QE program typically leads to a stock market pump. Market participants like the thought of more dollars coming into the economy, which leads them to offload them into stocks with bullish sentiments. That also means that investors could look beyond conventional financial instruments, like bitcoin, to distribute their portfolio risks. As a result, more money flows into the emerging cryptocurrency space. https://www.ccn.com/185-billion-crypto-market-storms-to-2019-high-as-trump-demands-rocketship-us-fed-policyAs for now in Central Banks We Trust and mr Trump And Fidelity report showing interesting in crypto from various institutional investors https://www.ccn.com/2-46-trillion-asset-manager-fidelity-packed-with-hundreds-of-rabid-bitcoin-fans?utm_content=88109849&utm_medium=social&utm_source=twitter&hss_channel=tw-1045309052270641152

There is many threads were people are asking what was the reason behind recent price bounce I have found really good article .ETF if you will read than you will be surprised how many bitcoin related ETF already exist https://www.nasdaq.com/article/will-the-bitcoin-bounce-last-etfs-in-focus-cm1123809Gabor Gurbacs, digital asset strategist at VanEck, sees the price jump as the result of short squeeze. The strategist noted that "CME bitcoin futures expired last Friday. A large chunk of positions was rolled (buying) into the new front month BTC futures contract. Over the weekend, heavy spot bitcoin and over-the-counter buying followed the bitcoin futures contract expiration pushing BTC price up slowly and gradually. As the price moved up in increments, over $500 million shorts have been liquidated on leveraged crypto derivatives trading platforms around the world," as quoted on barrons.com ETF Impact
Though bitcoin ETFs are not available to investors, they have blockchain ETFs at their disposal. Per a source, "the blockchain in Bitcoin literally acts a ledger; it keeps track of the balances for all users and updates them as money changes hands."
So, if investors cannot lay their hands on a bitcoin ETF now, they can definitely familiarize themselves with the concept through blockchain ETFs like Reality Shares Nasdaq NexGen Economy ETF BLCN , Amplify Transformational Data Sharing ETF BLOK and First Trust Indxx Innovative Transaction & Process ETF LEGR .
Investors should note that mining of cryptocurrencies needs the usage of semiconductors. So, if there is a future rally, investors may tap the opportunity with semiconductor ETFs like Semiconductor Vaneck Vectors ETF ( SMH ) , Invesco Dynamic Semiconductors Portfolio ( PSI ) and SPDR S&P Semiconductor ( XSD ) .

Very interesting interview with BitGo’s CEO Mike hi He is sharing his thoughts about BitGo development , coming Goldman crypto custody and Fidelity trial launch It is very bullish all together After reading all of that i see that crypto technology is rapidly transforming in to incredible industry supported by biggest player “ [Goldman] would be tremendous for the industry,” Belshe says. “They’d bring five or ten billion into custody in just a few months, just by being Goldman. And then that could cause the price [of Bitcoin] to spike, and it could spike on its own by a factor of ten…I’d love to have them in the space.” The same goes for Fidelity, whose much-awaited crypto business recently soft-launched with a few clients. Currently, the firm is just offering bitcoin custody.
“I would bet money that they just put the brakes on and say we’re going to see how this goes for three to six months. They don’t want to take a hundred-billion-dollar risk on brand new tech.” https://www.theblockcrypto.com/2019/03/07/heres-what-bitgos-ceo-expects-of-goldman-sachs-and-fidelitys-crypto-custody-plans/He notes that Goldman Sachs considered white labeling BitGo’s product, pursuing a pilot schem BitGo wants to build a ‘virtual order book’ to radically transform crypto’s market structure BitGo, the crypto custodian, announced a partnership earlier this year that would allow clients to trade without moving coins out of cold storage The firm is looking to expand that platform to create a global pool of liquidity, connecting possibly dozens of exchanges https://www.theblockcrypto.com/2019/03/05/bitgo-wants-to-build-a-virtual-order-book-to-radically-transform-cryptos-market-structure/

Surprise and by my opinion it explain current price rise Crypto press is not sharing that news yet Take close look and read The bill would clarify which virtual currencies qualify as commodities, provide optional regulatory structure House bills with bipartisan support would direct regulators to examine new ways to oversee digital assets and protect them from manipulation, as some lawmakers strive to make financial technologies more mainstream. In the U.S., a group known as the Virtual Commodity Association has been working to establish an industry-sponsored regulator tasked with governing digital assets. If the idea moves forward, it would function in a similar manner to stock markets, where conduct is partly policed by the industry itself. https://www.rollcall.com/news/congress/house-bills-revisit-regulation-cryptocurrenciesIf that bill will pass then even ETF will be possible “Virtual currencies and the underlying blockchain technology has a profound potential to be a driver of economic growth,” Soto said in a statement. “That’s why we must ensure that the United States is at the forefront of protecting consumers and the financial well-being of virtual currency investors, while also promoting an environment of innovation to maximize the potential of these technological advances.”

Huawei CFO Wanzhou Meng also deputy chairwoman and the daughter of Huawei’s founder was arrested on December 1, Meng's arrest will immediately heighten tensions between Washington and Beijing just days after the world’s two largest economies agreed on a truce in their growing trade conflict. It will, or at least should, also prompt any US execs currently in China to think long and hard if that's where they want to be, say, tomorrow when Xi decides to retaliate in kind. Somebody get mad in USA If all that will be not clarify very fast we will see war between China and USA USA stock are going further down it will be also real test for bitcoin Will be bitcoin neutral to all that rumor https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-12-05/china-outraged-arrest-huawei-cfo-warns-it-will-take-all-measures

Lets continue bookies investigation Worth to read Chris Meredith reviews tipsters for the website the Casual Gambler. He estimates around half of online tipsters are affiliated with a betting company. This means that when tipsters post their tips on social media they include a link to the betting company's site. What is rarely made clear is that the tipster has a financial arrangement with that betting company, one which means the tipster either receives a fixed sum for every person who creates an account with the firm, or more popularly, take a cut of around 30% of the punter's losses. https://www.bbc.com/news/blogs-trending-36580678So it looks like bookies know who will win It could be also nice opportunity If you know fake tipster like that you can lay his tips on exchange
