Page 11 / This is what it says: " The digital asset market has grown rapidly and may present risks to retail investors. The number of digital asset market participants, including broker-dealers, trading platforms, and investment advisers, also continues to increase. Given the significant growth and risks presented in this market, OCIE will continue to monitor the offer and sale, trading, and management of digital assets, and where the products are securities, examine for regulatory compliance. In particular, through high level inquiries, OCIE will take steps to identify market participants offering, selling, trading, and managing these products or considering or actively seeking to offer these products and then assess the extent of their activities.
For firms actively engaged in the digital asset market, OCIE will conduct examinations focused on, among other things, portfolio management of digital assets, trading, safety of client funds and assets, pricing of client portfolios, compliance, and internal controls."

Electrum is going to be "fucked" if they are not able to take measures to offset some of their ongoing negative press. Yes. The best thing for me is to generate paper wallet offline and cryptosteel and a small amount for trading. If you have more than $1,000 of value in bitcoin (and perhaps other crypto), then it can also be reasonable to invest in some kind of hardware wallet. I prefer Trezor over Ledger in regards to current hardware wallets that are available. I understand that there are several other hardware solutions that are available that I have not studied into. I am a bit nervous about paper wallets, but mostly based on my own lack of experience in using them. The problem I see with paper wallets is that you will sometime need to use a software wallet to "redeem" them so you are back to point one. Of course you could use an offline computer to run the software wallet, import the paperwallet and sign the transaction but then again, you could do that with a hardware wallet for added security (hardware wallet + offline computer). One argument in favor of paper wallets is that you can spread your stash over several ones with different keys... But if your stash is worth enough you can also spread it onto several different hardware wallets (with different seeds)... and maybe even some paper wallets. If I had to chose between hardware wallet vs paperwallet for a modest holding I would chose hardware wallet. Each option has its risks, but that is my opinion and choice. P.S.: And yes, if one's stash is worth 10x+ the cost of the hardware wallet I consider it a more than reasonable investment. Surely one day I will buy a Trezor. I have to convince myself, my brain is hard for some things. (Google chrome, plugins...)

Los gobiernos temen que esto se les escape de las manos y como en todo quieren sacar tajada, este articulo esta bastante bien, pero no creo que acaben aquí a medida que el mundo cripto vaya a mas, estrecharan mas el circulo para cargarnos mas impuestos, vamos, como con todo y como siempre sale el blanqueo de capital ya no se si es la excusa para hurgar mas en las personas que solo invierten en cripto o realmente les interesa, pero siempre lo dicen como si solo se blanqueara dinero con BTC, blanquean dinero constantemente y no precisamente con BTC. Esta regulación hace referencia a España, consta de varios puntos, no son muy extensos pero te haces una idea del tema: 1. Introducción 2. ¿Debemos regular las criptomonedas? 3. ¿Existe alguna definición legal de las criptomonedas? 4. ¿Cómo regulamos? 5. ¿Qué dicen los notarios españoles? – Prevención del blanqueo de capitales y financiación del terrorismo 6. ¿Qué dice la Agencia Tributaria (AEAT)? 7. ¿Qué dice el Senado de las Cortes Generales? 8. ¿Qué dicen el Banco de España y la Comisión Nacional del Mercado de Valores (CNMV)? 9. ¿Qué tratamiento legal se le da en otros países a las criptomonedas? 10. ¿Qué lecciones hemos aprendido? https://www.algoritmolegal.com/tecnologias-disruptivas/regulacion-legal-del-bitcoin-y-de-otras-criptomonedas-en-espana/

The linked article itself contains no new info. It's old news. I still think Jihan's in trouble, though. I wou't be surprised if he has an unexpected accident some time soon. I think it was a rumor first, now they replace it.

How is this not the same attack as before? Is there something I'm missing or is it just that there is a new software mitigating it now. Electrum twitter with today date. I can not tell you more, I do not use Electrum. Maybe they are repeating the same attack.
