🗞 Fidelity May Formally Launch Its Crypto Custody Service in March
Fidelity Investments’ new crypto custody service may officially launch in March.
The storage component of Fidelity Digital Asset Services LLC (FDAS) is already live, with some assets under management, a person familiar with the situation told CoinDesk Tuesday. Bloomberg reported, in a story initially available only on its terminals, that Fidelity was aiming for March for a formal launch.
“We are currently serving a select set of eligible clients as we continue to build our initial solutions,” the company said in a statement. “Over the next several months, we will throughly engage with and prioritize prospective clients based on needs, jurisdiction and other factors.”
🗞 This Spongebob-Themed Tech Proves That Bitcoin’s Lightning Is Advancing
“Wumbology, the study of ‘wumbo’. It’s first grade, Spongebob!”
For the uninitiated, that’s a quote from the Nickelodeon animated series Spongebob Squarepants. Spoken by the jolly starfish Patrick Star, it describes the word “wumbo” – to which the eponymous character responds: “I don’t think that’s a real word.”
Well, thanks to some up-and-coming technology built on bitcoin, Star is looking to be correct.
Pinched from the cartoon, the term wumbo now describes one of the next milestones for bitcoin’s lightning network, the payments layer bitcoin developers are heads-down on in order to solve the digital money’s biggest problem: that it only supports a few users right now – let a worldwide ecosystem.
🗞 A Look at Openbazaar’s Multi-Currency Wallet and Vendor Listings
On Jan. 17, the blockchain and cryptocurrency company OB1 released Openbazaar version 2.3 which provides users with the ability to use a multi-currency wallet within the marketplace. Since then, there’s been a large number of added listings and an increased amount of people trading cryptocurrencies in a peer-to-peer fashion.
🗞 Report: Two Hacker Groups Stole $1 Billion From Crypto Exchanges
A new report alleges that just two groups of hackers dominate the majority of cybercrime directed against cryptocurrency exchanges. Together, these groups have responsible for stealing about $1 billion of cryptocurrency so far.
Digital surveillance company Chainalysis has released its latest “crypto crime” report, claiming to identify two groups responsible for the majority of hacks in the field. Its findings were obtained in part by analyzing the different practices the thieves used for laundering their illicit gains.
🗞 DApp Survey Highlights Poor User Uptake as Major Pain Point for Developers
Decentralized data aggregator Fluence Labs highlighted user uptake as the number one problem facing decentralized app (DApp) developers in a new survey released on Jan. 29.
The DApp industry, which began using the Ethereum blockchain in 2017, has since grown to number around 1,800 products, according to listing resource DappRadar.
EOS and TRON have since risen to compete with Ethereum as host blockchains, the latter nonetheless still being home to 87 percent of DApps, Fluence says.

STEEM Trading Update by my friend 
Here is the chart of yesterday :
Here is the current chart :
So we are exactly in the same situation than the BTC. After the big drop of yesterday, we are consolidating just under the resistance line in orange, making a pause. Be sure that we will have soon a new move and consider the current chart as a pause. We have more propabilities to continue the drop but let's see. Exactly as on the BTC, we have a support line in red under our current level. If we break that line, it will be to make new lows on STEEM so let's hope that this line will hold us if we touch it...
