CNBC reports that in a new note to clients, Greenspan said he believes the current climate is a buyer’s market, and he’s looking to see if the price holds at about $5,000.
“The next logical level of support is at $5,000 but if that doesn’t hold, the next logical support level isn’t until $3,500.”
Ethereum
In a new interview with the New York Times, co-founder of the Ethereum development studio ConsenSys Joseph Lubin says blockchain technology could give the luxury goods industry a big boost.
“One of the key ways blockchain and its creation of a new trusted and verifiable infrastructure could transform luxury is in the battle against counterfeit goods…
It would take a fair amount of investment and would obviously be easier to track within a controlled supply chain as opposed to a wider supply network, but the technology is there and we are getting better at it.”
Ripple
Ripple’s senior vice president of product Asheesh Birla just released a comprehensive overview on the utility and viability of stablecoins.
Birla analyzes both the use cases and future regulatory expectations for the coins, which are designed to be pegged 1:1 to fiat currency.
Tron
Huobi Wallet, a multi-currency wallet for iOS and Android, has just added support for TRX. Users control their own assets by managing their own private keys.
