Probably most of you have already heard something about crypto situation in Venezuela. Their government is trying to fight with crisis in this country by crypto technology, they've introduced national cryptocurrency called Petro (which, as government maintains, has cover in national oil reserves - what explains the name of coin) and now they've published a new decree that obliges all crypto investors to pay taxes in digital currencies (here you have an article on BlockChian24.co subreddit about it)
But on the other hand, I've reed some articles about people living in Venezuela, who don't even know about Petro.
What do you think about situation in this country? You think it have a potential to become first fully opened on cryptocurrencies, or this whole case is only government noise made to cover their problems?

Some of you guys probably have already heard about it: a hacker group called The Dark Overlord has announced that they've successfully attacked government's database containing confidential data concerning 9/11 attacks. They demanding Bitcoins in exchange of not revealing this informations (whole case on an article on spam blocked b)
You think those guys are serious? What could possibly be in that data?

British government has released detailed tax advice for cryptocurrency holders. You think this can be a beginning of change of cryptocurrency policy in this country? Here you have whole article: https://www.spam blocked b/tax-legislation-for-crypto-in-the-uk/

I've found today on spam blocked b subreddit an article about first blockchain bank on Malta. This island is a paradise for crypto technology and such a development may start a revolution - I hope this idea will become more popular on the rest of the world.
What do you think about it?

CoinDeal has just added LBRY Credits to their market. I'd never heard of this coin before so I checked it. And it looks like LBRY is a platform where you can buy creative works, such as songs, books etc, and LBRY Credits is their official coin. Do you know this crypto? It's indeed so perspective as it looks like?

It looks like Zuckerberg is planning something connected with blockchain technology. They keep it in secret, but there are some leaks (on spam blocked b you can read more about it). What it will be? I bet we could expect something which will help to maintain users data safe (and of course eventually sell them, it's Zuckerberg after all xD ). But what do you think?

Hi guys, can someone explain to me what's better, STO or ICO? I've read in article on spam blocked b that Beijing is going to ban STO. Author has described STO as better one, but for me ICO is still more popular.

As you probably know, Argentina hosts this year G20. This event is always an important thing in global politic, but in this year leaders of the most important countries have really interesting subject to discuss - crypto taxation. It looks like cryptocurrencies are getting more and more attention of governments and now they're planning to have better control on it.
Despite my aversion for G20 idea (it looks like exclusive club for the richest guys, where they're deciding about global politics like some kings [I know, one of them is de facto a king]) I can't blame them for trying to get crypto market into their hands. They have finally realized how important cryptocurrencies are. The real question is: will their plans succeed?
here you have an article on spam blocked b, you should also check info from non-crypto sites because they have little different point of view about it.
