Bitcoin is a good store of value, according to the new US Senator

Elected Senator Cynthia Marie Lummis Wiederspahn for the state of Wyoming is a bitcoiner and proud of it. In a live interview with ABC, Lummis said she hopes to bring bitcoin to the national conversation.

I am a former Wyoming State Treasurer and have invested our state’s ongoing funds. That’s why I was always looking for a good credit balance. Bitcoin fits in that direction.

Grayscale now owns half a million bitcoin

Grayscale now holds $ 8.35 billion worth of Bitcoin, according to a November 16 announcement . That equates to 2.69% of the outstanding supply and market capitalization of Bitcoin (BTC).

However, since Chainalysis estimates that around 3.7 million BTC have been lost, Grayscale could now actually own 3.37% of Bitcoin’s remaining circulating supply.

Institutional investors currently pay a 19% surcharge and a 2% annual fee for buying and holding cryptocurrencies through the security of a regulated fund.

Origin Protocol Loses $ 7,000,000 in Recent DeFi Attack

The Origin Dollar (OUSD) stablecoin project suffered a so-called “re-entry attack” at 12:47 UTC on Tuesday, resulting in a loss of $ 7 million in funds, including over $ 1 million from Origin and its founders and Employees have been paid.

The attack used a flash loan and errors in the OUSD contracts to initiate what is known as a “rebase,” according to Etherscan and an updated blog by the team. The attack artificially inflated the supply of OUSD tokens within the protocol before the newly printed tokens on SushiSwap and Uniswap were exchanged for USDT. Origin wrote in an update:

The attacker was able to create a rebase event within the second coinage after funds flowed from the first major coinage into the OUSD, but before the supply of OUSD increased. This created a massive rebase for everyone named in the contract, including the attacker. The attacker then also received his first large OUSD coinage, giving him more OUSD overall than the contract had assets.

The team has disabled deposits and the price of the native token OUSD has fallen 85.5% since the attack and is currently trading at $ 0.145 instead of the proposed $ 1.

Another hard fork for Bitcoin Cash

The Bitcoin Cash network, a result of a hard fork of Bitcoin, has once again split into two new blockchains. At this point, Bitcoin Cash ABC (BCH ABC) has barely received any hash power. This means that everything currently looks like the Bitcoin Cash Node (BCHN) will become the dominant software of the Bitcoin Cash network.

En topptillsynsmyndighet förklarar betydelsen av kryptovaluta i det nuvarande ekonomiska klimatet och i framtiden för banktjänster för den amerikanska senaten.

Som en del av hans vittnesbörd under en utfrågning som hölls av senatskommittén för bank-, bostads- och stadsfrågor, gav chefschef för kontoret för valutaövervakaren (OCC) Brian Brooks detaljer om de ansträngningar OCC gör för att säkerställa federala banksystemet fortsätter att vara en källa till styrka och lättnad för konsumenter, företag och samhällen som är undervärderade under pandemin.

Brooks lyfter fram vikten av innovationerna i kryptovaluta som har gynnat miljontals amerikanska konsumenter och företag

”Idag äger ungefär 60 miljoner amerikaner någon typ av kryptovaluta, med ett totalt marknadsvärde på nästan 430 miljarder dollar. Dessa siffror illustrerar tydligt att denna betalningsmekanism nu är fast förankrad i den finansiella mainstream.

Kryptovaluta har blivit en populär mekanism för att skicka och ta emot betalningar för varor och tjänster eftersom transaktioner bokförs i realtid och ger bekvämlighet och säkerhet. Cryptocurrency beskriver också kategorier av specifika valutor av värde, och ökningen av användningen av stablecoins visar konsumenternas komfort med dess användning. ”

När amerikaner fortsätter att omfamna innovation och nya sätt att få tillgång till finansiella tjänster, säger Brooks att OCC har en skyldighet att tillhandahålla regleringsriktlinjer, främja ansvarsfull innovation och stödja utvecklingen av säker, försiktig och rättvis finansiell infrastruktur.

För detta ändamål beskriver Brooks viktiga steg som OCC tog 2020 för att ge tydlig reglering inom kryptoindustrin

”Den 22 juli 2020 publicerade OCC ett tolkningsbrev som klargjorde de nationella bankernas och federala sparföreningars myndighet att tillhandahålla tjänster för kryptovalutaförvaring för kunder. Nationella och statliga banker och banker har länge tillhandahållit förvaringstjänster, inklusive fysiska föremål och elektroniska tillgångar. OCC har specifikt erkänt vikten av digitala tillgångar och bemyndigande för banker att tillhandahålla skydd för sådana tillgångar sedan 1998. ”

The SXP moves between the support of $ 0.75 and the resistance of $ 1.20.

Price broke a descending resistance line.

The price just completed wave 4 of a 5 wave bullish formation.

The course Swipe (SXP) increased significantly during the first week of November after a rebound to an important support zone.

The Bitcoin Union may have completed a bullish momentum, confirmed with a break above a descending resistance line. The price could then continue to increase towards the resistance zones mentioned below.

Swipe Exchange Fork

The SXP price has been declining since its peak of $ 5.15 on August 13. On November 3, it hit a low at $ 0.69 and reversed its trend soon after. It has since increased by more than 30%.

Interestingly, the bottom is significantly below the latest fibonacci support (0.856), located at $ 1.20. This level is now resisting, after rejecting price on November 8, resulting in a long upper wick.

The price finally passes resistance

The shorter-term, six-hour chart shows that price has already broken through a descending resistance line. The upward movement did not last long, knowing that the 0.382 fibonacci level rejected price, but the SXP is still looking to hit an upper low before rising again.

Technical indicators support this potential rise, knowing that the RSI is above 50 and the MACD signal line is above 0.

Even in the daily timescale, technical indicators are in the process of turning bullish. This is shown by the histogram of the MACD, which generated its first positive bar.

Knowing that the Stochastic Oscillator is generating a bullish cross and the RSI is looking to break above 50, a prolonged rally in price could allow these indicators to finalize their respective advances. This would confirm the upward trend.
