It is a common myth that Bitcoin is ruled by a majority of miners. This is not true. Bitcoin miners "vote" on the ordering of transactions, but that's all they do. They can't vote to change the network rules.

Active Users for Most Cryptocurrencies Is Shockingly Low

The number of active addresses, which can be an indication of the number of active users, is shockingly low for almost all cryptocurrencies.
There are 52 cryptocurrencies with market caps in excess of USD 100 million, which should suggest a tremendous user base for each of those cryptos. Yet, only 20 cryptocurrencies have had over 1,000 active addresses in the past 24 hours as of 9 September 2018. This would suggest that market cap is not a good measure of a crypto’s true strength or use, and this article explores this further.

This really quote my attention.

Imagine the possibility of having a central platform for all crypto decentralization? An ultimate decentralized exchange where the lightning network will not be solely supporting bitcoin alone but all of the cryptocurrencies.  This scaling news is a welcome innovation that is very timely as we see many altcoins progressing in the same direction as bitcoin. And with many other people investing on altcoins too, the submarine swap idea will prove to be of great assistance to those that keeps their crypto assets in different baskets.

Bitcoin has the capabilities of causing a revolutionary turn in the way people patronize goods and service. Due to its decentralized nature, the governments are not in favor of it and are doing everything within their power to hinder its progress. As such, Bitcoin and the Fiat can coexist with each delivering its unique benefits.

Berkeley Professor Claims Stablecoins Not a Solution to Bitcoin’s Volatility

Stablecoins aren’t the panacea to Bitcoin’s fluctuating fortunes, according to a Berkeley professor, claiming that they have clear weaknesses.
Professor of Economics at UC Berkeley, Barry Eichengreen, suggests that stablecoins, seen by some as highly attractive for investment due to their being pegged to the US Dollar, aren’t so stable as the name suggests. Nick Tomaino, founder of @1confirmation, calls stablecoins “the holy grail of cryptocurrency” because of their price stable characteristics.
