The new blockchain network is said to improve the quality of community correction that the justice department can serve, upgrading its ability to track parolees activities around the clock.

Hello cryptocurrency enthusiasts, traders, investors, innovators, miners, and advocates! I will be posting BitcoinNews articles and videos in this thread, from https://bitcoinnews.com/ . We cover the full spectrum of Bitcoin, blockchain, and cryptocurrency news with about 10 new stories being published per day. I hope you find the videos educational, and I will always be checking in to answer any questions, comments, or critiques. To start, here is a video about hyperbitcoinization, an optimistic way to start this thread Hyperbitcoinization: The End Of Fiat Currency, $100M Bitcoin?

Read the full article at https://bitcoinnews.com/hyperbitcoinization-the-end-of-fiat-currency-100m-bitcoin/Video: https://www.youtube.com/embed/6SlPtBB-eAwI like such insane extreme scenarios, it doesn't matter how unlikely they are. Of course one should carefully avoid to confuse them with reality.
