Should we be comforted or unnerved by the fact that bitcoin was the top performing currency last year? Probably a bit more of the latter than the former. The Money Project, which exists as a collaboration between Visual Capitalist and Texas Precious Metals, noted that the cryptocurrency notched a 35 percent gain over the course of the year (ending at a value of $429). Compare that the dollar’s 8 percent rise over the same period, and the greenback looks, well, dodgy by comparison, even as measured by a basket of other currencies. http://www.pymnts.com/news/2016/bitcoins-strength-may-be-exercise-in-folly/ |

Australia's Bitcoin Group is less than a month away from debuting on the ASX as the bitcoin mining firm hopes to bring validity to the cryptocurrency and earn its share of what the CEO called a billion dollar opportunity. Bitcoin and its underlying blockchain technology is a billion dollar opportunity, rather than a million dollar opportunity, according to Bitcoin Group CEO Sam Lee. The Melbourne-based bitcoin mining firm is days away from listing on the Australian Securities Exchange (ASX), with Lee believing the cryptocurrency has a very promising and profitable future. http://www.zdnet.com/article/bitcoin-group-ceo-eyes-billion-dollar-opportunity-with-upcoming-asx-debut/ |

Bitcoin price could undergo stronger bearish momentum in the coming days after it broke below the ascending triangle support. With this downside break, bitcoin price could eventually make its way towards the $400 area of interest. Bitcoin Price Key Highlights As hinted in yesterday’s update, bitcoin price was due for a downside break of the triangle support visible on the 4-hour time frame. Price had been previously consolidating inside a long-term ascending triangle after forming higher lows and testing resistance at $465. With this downside break, bitcoin price could eventually make its way towards the $400 area of interest. http://www.newsbtc.com/2016/01/13/bitcoin-price-technical-analysis-for-13012016-sellers-unite/ |

A quick look at the 1hr BTCC chart and we see the moving averages compressing in near-horizontal price action today. MACD has settled on its zero line and RSI has sufficient divergence in both directions to allow a price wave to move some distance – either up or down. The 4-hour and 1-day charts are technically bullish, but a reversal to the downside will quickly change that. https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/bitcoin-price-consolidating-again/ |

For the several days now, there have been rumors circulating the internet about Cryptsy. Speculation runs rampant and other news sites are reporting different theories. In this report, I will list the facts as I know them from sources inside the exchange. I do have a personal opinion on this but a news site is not a bully pulpit; it is a place for facts and facts alone. https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/cryptsy-site-messed-moment/ |

Will blockchains that various financial institutions are investing in nowadays create “smart contracts” that perform financial services without the inefficiency or risk of intervention created by an intermediary counterparty agent? Smart contract technology, like bitcoin, can circumvent regulatory infrastructures, which could reduce costs for financial transactions. An important feature of a smart contract is the ability to reduce risk through non-discriminatory execution. The lack of a central counterparty agent can enable such contracts to service markets with greater efficiency. https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/smart-contracts-future-blockchain/ |

Litecoin was designed by Charlie Lee to be the so-called “silver” to Bitcoin’s “gold” in the popular analogy that compares the digital currency to the precious metal. On Wikipedia, it states that Litecoin was invented, in part, to “process a block every 2.5 minutes, rather than Bitcoin’s 10 minutes, which its developers claim allows for faster transaction confirmations.” Litecoin has gained in popularity over its history – it was launched on github on October 7, 2011 – with a steady increase in transaction volume over time. Moreover, it is traded on many different exchanges, including Bitfinex, BTC-e, OKCoin, BitBay, Kraken, Yacuna and Huobi, BTC China and OK Coin trade the digital currency. https://www.cryptocoinsnews.com/bitcoin-litecoin-fail/ |

Convicted Silk Road founder Ross Ulbricht has served a year of his double-life sentence without parole, but is now getting the chance to appeal his original conviction. The first step on that road is a big one too, as his legal team submitted a 140+ page document requesting the original trial be thrown out, citing examples such as corrupt federal officers being involved in the case. This was a major point of contention during and in the aftermath of the original trial, where it was found that a pair of federal offices, one from the DEA and another from the Secret Service, had deliberately hidden away Bitcoins that were part of the case. They eventually pled guilty to the charges, but this was long after Ulbricht’s trial was completed. http://www.kitguru.net/channel/jon-martindale/ross-ulbricht-appeal-kicks-off-with-attack-on-corrupt-feds/ |
