The price of Tether's stablecoin (the USDT token) has fallen to its biggest drop in the last 18 months.

The stablecoin to US dollar exchange rate fell to $ 0.925284 on Monday, the lowest level since April 2017, and was last traded at 2% less, in the last 24 hours, according to the Coinmarketcap tool.

The fall in the USDT price has boosted the price of Bitcoin (BTC) in exchange Bitfinex. The market leader cryptocurrency was quoted at $ 7,788 in exchange. Rumors indicate that the Hong Kong-based exchange operates Tether LLC, which developed the USDT token.

Some reports blame the fall in the price of the USDT token due to lack of transparency about the company's true holdings in USD (dollar). Some believe that while there are many factors that affect Bitcoin's price movements, bulls are often correlated with new USDT issues. USDT acquisitions are scheduled to track the falls of Bitcoin, so it can be used to support Bitcoin's prices.

Google entered the cryptocurrencies debate as a form of money last week, discussing its validity during the introductory video of a new feature of the Google Assistant tool.

Parity's debate sparked discussions reminiscent of last year's DAO hack, where the difficult Fork dispute has spawned Ethereum Classic (now valued at $ 1.7 billion).
The issue is that the debate continues, without a definitive solution, meanwhile, users affected by the problem see the price of the Ethereum reaching new historical heights without access to their currencies, but keeping, like Parity, the hope that someone can to help. In the case of users, waiting for the company, and in the case of the company, waiting for the acceptance of the community which is also composed by users. Let's follow the case.

Jeff Garzik, one of Bitcoin's first developers and founder of SegWit2x's unfinished hard fork, is launching its own hard fork into the digital currency network that will originate a new currency called UnitedBitcoin (UBTC). Anyone who owns Bitcoins on the date, still undefined, will receive the same amount of the new digital currency. The amount of Bitcoins in private keys lost will be estimated and the same amount will be issued in the new currency, which will then be sent to a Foundation of the same name, UnitedBitcoin. In addition it will also serve as an intelligent contract platform, similar to Ethereum.
