Pro-Bitcoin and Crypto Presidential Candidate Andrew Yang Hits Crucial Milestone, Plus Ripple and XRP, Ethereum, Tron, Litecoin, Stellar, EOS

in Altcoins

From a big victory for a pro-Bitcoin and crypto presidential candidate to a new way to swap Ethereum and EOS, here’s a look at some of the stories breaking in the world of crypto.

Bitcoin

Bitcoin-friendly Andrew Yang just scored a crucial victory. The US presidential candidate reached a key milestone on the road to the first two debates hosted by the Democratic National Committee. On Monday morning, Yang’s contributions topped 65,000 individual donors across 20 states, making him eligible to appear at the first debate. Yang started accepting crypto as a payment option for donations in July of 2018, including Bitcoin, Ethereum and all ERC20 tokens.

The debates will be limited to 20 candidates. Yang may join more well-known candidates such as Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Cory Booker and Kamala Harris.

Yang is considered a long shot. His campaign got a mega boost when he appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience last month where talked about his plans to implement a universal basic income of $12,000 annually for every adult American age 18 to 64.

EOS and Ethereum

Bancor just announced a non-custodial wallet offering instant, on-chain conversions between Ethereum and EOS-based tokens with a single click. The wallet works on iOS, Android and desktop.

Ripple and XRP

Ripple’s partnership with China’s Tsinghua University is taking off.

Ripple teamed up with the university to create a research scholarship program for graduates that will focus on blockchain, digital assets like XRP and the current state of regulations in the country.

Litecoin

in a new livestream on YouTube, Litecoin founder Charlie Lee and TokenPay CEO Derek Capo talked about their collaboration. The two companies announced a partnership in July, which includes the launch of a new decentralized exchange.

Stellar

The team at Stellar is updating the platform’s logo, saying goodbye to its blue cartoon rocket ship. The new black and white logo is designed to be used as a currency symbol.

We're excited to share the new Stellar logo!
