Cryptocurrency could be the solution for the financial problems

July 11, 2021 by Syed Ahad

Cryptocurrency is providing answers to financial issues that traditional financial systems have been unable or unwilling to address.

Transacting using crypto is, in particular, much cheaper and faster than using regular bank procedures. People can now swap their money for exact value cryptocurrency without having to pay expensive charges to middlemen.

Crypto has also improved financial transaction privacy by preventing third parties from tracking sensitive information.

As more people accept crypto, its value rises. As a result, one will have a strong grip on their wealth and be able to manage it.

Bitcoin and Ethereum Prices Are ‘In Danger’

July 11, 2021 by Syed Ahad

Bitcoin and cryptocurrency prices have been falling in recent weeks as China‘s crypto crackdown has become more severe.

Bitcoin’s price collapsed in May, losing half of its worth, and has been under pressure ever since. Meanwhile, ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency after bitcoin, has lost more than half of its value, with the price of an ether token battling to stay over $2,000.

Analysts have cautioned that crypto prices are “in danger” following allegations that former bitcoin and ethereum miners in China have been dumping GPUs, indicating that at least some of the banned Chinese mining power may not return.

TikTok Influencers Forbidden from Promoting Cryptocurrencies

July 9, 2021 by Syed Ahad

TikTok, a very popular video-sharing application that is partly responsible for the rise of meme cryptocurrencies like Dogecoin, has banned its users from promoting cryptocurrencies, stated British Newspaper.

Apart from cryptocurrency, TikTok has recently modified branded content policy which prohibits many other financial services and products, including loans, credit cards, and forex trading.

For promoting certain products, popular social media profiles are generally paid.

To cater to the app’s young consumers, several big fintech businesses, such as Revolut, would work with “fintok”(a very particular corner of the country’s fastest-growing social media app) influencers.

On the other hand, the new policy will put an end to such collaborations.

There were fears that some fraudulent users were looking for young people’s gullibility and with the lack of investment knowledge.

The firm has also improved its approach to user safety by implementing a system that deletes any films that breach its guidelines instantly:

“Over the next few weeks, we’ll begin using technology to automatically remove some types of violative content identified upon upload, in addition to removals confirmed by our Safety team.”

EU agency aims to combat crypto laundering

July 9, 2021 by Syed Ahad

The European Union (EU) has proposed the establishment of a new agency to combat money laundering related to cryptocurrencies.

The European Union (EU) intends to establish an anti-money laundering (AML) agency.

According to a report by Reuters, the European Commission is considering creating an Anti-Money Laundering Authority (AMLA) to trace illicit financial transfers across the European Union, including bitcoin transactions.

Documents acquired by Reuters state, the newly planned organization will target the hazards posed by cryptocurrencies as part of a broader crackdown on money laundering. The proposal’s documents stated:

“The lack of such rules leaves holders of crypto assets exposed to money laundering and financing of terrorism risks, as flows of illicit money can be done through transfers of crypto assets.”

Crypto usage: Turkey jumped by elevenfold in a year

July 9, 2021July 8, 2021 by Syed Ahad

A recent survey performed in Turkey shows, how the attitude towards crypto has changed in the past year.

According to a new survey by Turkish crypto exchange Paribu (a Turkish cryptocurrency exchange website), Turkey’s cryptocurrency userbase has increased by more than 11 times in the previous year.

The “Cryptocurrency Awareness and Perception Survey 2021” was conducted by Akademetre Research, revealing the perceptions and behaviors of Turkish citizens toward Bitcoin (BTC) and other cryptocurrencies. The first such survey was completed in 2020.

The fact that only 0.7 percent of over 6,000 respondents exchanged cryptocurrency in any way was a striking finding from last year’s study. On top of that, 84% of respondents had never heard of Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies before. These results have contrasted with previous reports that claimed one-fifth of the Turkish population was exposed to cryptocurrency.

This year, the survey shows a substantial jump in terms of cryptocurrency usage in Turkey. Out of 1,400 respondents, 7.7% said they traded with Bitcoin or other cryptocurrencies, marking an 11-times jump in crypto users compared to last year.

According to the survey, 11% of respondents with crypto knowledge have become active cryptocurrency users. As a major cryptocurrency exchange in the country, Paribu reflects the adoption speed with its user count, which grew from 600,000 to over 4 million within a year.

Central Bank of China issued a warning to firms regarding crypto-related businesses

July 6, 2021 by Syed Ahad

Central Bank of China has issued a warning to firms, to stop the services regarding crypto-related businesses.

The Chinese central bank has announced the removal of a Beijing-based software firm over its suspected connection in cryptocurrency trading.

Beijing Qudao Cultural Development Co Ltd. was banned by Chinese authorities for suspected cryptocurrency trading, according to a statement made on Tuesday.

According to Reuters, the software company has been ordered to cease operations immediately, and its website has been taken down.

The People’s Bank of China‘s stance on cryptocurrency-related activities was also underlined in the statement from the Beijing financial supervision administration.

In addition to dealing directly with cryptocurrencies, Beijing organizations shall not provide venues, commercial displays, or advertising for any cryptocurrency-related operations.

This statement came after the Chinese government passed a slew of anti-crypto policies.

Whereas, the government made a statement in May asking for more strict crypto asset regulation.

The issue escalated in June when China’s central bank stated that cryptocurrency traders’ accounts will be cancelled.

A massive miner exodus caused the Bitcoin network hash-rate to fall to its lowest levels since 2019.

On the contrary, regulations have also cut off access to Bitcoin mining in the country.

Bitcoin’s price has dropped nearly 42% since May, due in large part to unfavorable government regulations in China. With China’s long-running anti-crypto campaign unlikely to end soon, Bitcoin will need to find support elsewhere if it is to prevent further decline.
