📌 Research: 20% of all the Bitcoin is lost, real supply is low. What don’t we know? (source)
You know that a lot of stories are related to how people lost Bitcoin. Basically, there are a lot of real stories about forgotten hard drives with BTC, passwords, etc. Many coins were stolen by fraudsters, hackers. So, how much is really lost?
Near the 6 million Bitcoins in the blockchain have been lost, however, the statistics isn’t clear. Experts argue that when the maximum number of Bitcoins will be reached, these losses can trigger an increase the currency’s price a bit. So, it doesn’t affect a market at present time, but, in the future it can change the situation, with many other (more important or not) reasons.
Statistics in cryptocurrency and blockchain is still deep and pretty hard understandable sometimes. But, often it shows a good opportunity to find out more about the real situation on the market. For example, last month we noticed that 90% of Bitcoin Cash wasn’t used for transactions.

📌 ETF to crypto: is this a new strong trend? Europe and US can show a way to new whales in cryptocurrency
Exchange Traded Fund, ETF is a model of fund which works more like index fund. More of them can be learned from S&P 500 Index, Nasdaq 100, Russell 2000 Index and so on. ETFs can also track foreign stock market, there are strong positions for gold, oil and more (more info about ETF). If some of ETFs will go into cryptocurrency market, this can probably change game at some level. As a theory, it can signalizes the new flow on the market.
First, the largest ETF in Europe began to work with cryptocurrencies. Flow Traders NV added BTC and ETH for cryptocurrency trading on regulated stock exchanges. Representatives of the company noticed that now the blockchain industry is not regulated completely, but soon this moment will come. Therefore, interest in the cryptocurrency from the obvious big player is understandable - perhaps this is the best moment to enter the crypto market (if regulation will be really completed soon).
Institutional money will come to crypto market even from United States. CBOE Global Markets is not the first to add similar solutions for BTC/others trading, but it still important that big unions just can go on the market without problems. When it became known that SEC has clarified Bitcoin/Ethereum are not securities, the situation with new players began more stable. But, there is still a big question, will be ICOs regulated or not.

📌 Vitalik Buterin (Ethereum) is against crypto exchanges (aggressively). Why? (source)
During the TechCrunch Sessions: Blockchain Vitalik Buterin said the centralization process on the exchange’s market bothers him the most. Moreover, he expressed very aggressively, so we can understand his opinion about the crypto exchange markets today, including about the giants. In fact, today we have two big trends. First, big players get more profit. The second trend is that teams release their trading platforms, so many new exchanges will be released soon, but most of them get lost very often.
The creator of Ethereum criticized centralized platforms for having the ability to decide which cryptocurrencies “become big.” According to Buterin, they do this by charging “these crazy ten to fifteen million dollar listing fees.” He then added that further decentralization would better satisfy the “blockchain values” of “openness and transparency.”

📌 World: Philippines accredits 2 new crypto exchanges (source)
Bangko Sentral ng Pilipinas (BSP) is the Philippine central bank will allow to work 2 new cryptocurrency exchanges. Earlier, Philippines recognized that crypto (and digital assets) can be more faster and cheaper than the other payment systems and so. So, this region has good conditions for the crypto-currency market and for other blockchain-based projects, so the decision does not seem so unusual for local players.
“Now, we are refining the rules… If your business model has a portion making use of e-wallet, then there’s an additional requirement but not necessarily or automatically an e-money license.”
Quote: source.
Earlier it was announced that the Philippines would issue 25 licenses for crypto-exchanges in its economic zone.
