Bitcoin and cryptocurrency round-up 15 May 2018
What's happening in cryptocurrency?
Meet Line, xpringing into action, Consensus Singapore, Nasdaq-powered, Eth and Zcash gone wild.
1. Connect the dots
There are two kinds of people:
2. Ripple to XRP: "Look busy"
Ripple has added Xpring (pronounced spring) to its repertoire.
It's all about diverxification.
3. It's probably just a coincidence
Freshly engorged from selling out an 8,500 person event at $2,000 to $3,000 a pop, CoinDesk has now announced Consensus: Singapore for later in the year, for a vaguely similar price.
You might get more bang for your buck though.
4. Pardon?
What does "Nasdaq-powered" even mean?
More than nothing, less than everything. More or less.
