Crypto News Flash: Bitcoin (BTC), EOS, Stellar (XLM), Ripple and XRP, Dash
From support for a renegade SEC Commissioner to a cryptocurrency takeover in Venezuela, here’s a look at some of the stories breaking in the world of crypto.
Bitcoin (BTC)
The crypto community is uniting to show support for the SEC Commissioner who issued a powerful dissent against the SEC ruling on Thursday that rejected the latest Bitcoin ETF proposal from the Winkelvoss twins.
A tweet from Commissioner Hester Peirce went viral after she wrote that the ruling hinders innovation and stops people from deciding for themselves whether or not they want to invest.
Apparently, bitcoin is not ripe enough, respectable enough, or regulated enough to be worthy of our markets. I dissent: https://t.co/gH5zXaKtmj

Stellar (XLM)
Cross-border mobile payment platform TransferTo is integrating with Stellar to “enable a more seamless and efficient settlement method between its network partners.”
In addition, Stellar’s partner Satoshipay is getting ready to launch an IPO on the London Stock Exchange. The company’s “pocket change” wallet for the web allows users to make small transactions and tip content creators on the internet.
