Bulletproof forks

Earlier this week we reported that Monero was getting ready to hard fork. The Beryllium Bullet implementation will allow Monero to have greater resistance against ASICs. This release also includes a feature called bulletproofs. The Bulletproofs feature will allow better privacy by hiding the number coins in each transaction.

Chicago's bulls

Slain Investor

A bit more tragic, a 24 year old Bitcoin investor was stabbed to death in his apartment. Prior to his unfortunate death, he reportedly sold $120,000 worth of bitcoin in order to buy an apartment. Be careful out there guys. Don’t be a statistic.

Flame-thrower FOMO

Earlier yesterday, Coinfeed members received an alert that Elon Musk was accepting crypto for his Boring Company flamethrower. This is a sham, a scam, don’t do it. Trust me. Yours truly almost pulled the trigger on a flamethrower; Until I remembered Elon mentioning on Joe Rogan’s show that he wouldn’t make any more. We dug a bit deeper and noticed that the domain had been registered two days ago. Crypto is ruthless.

Oh Hai,

I'm Coinfeed TV. This is not your daddy's Bloomberg. We tell it like it is and we may hurt your feelings. But we do it because cause we love you. Now bring it in.

This show is slightly advanced. If you're just getting into crypto much of this will go over your head. But that's okay, we have a home for you too. Download the Coinfeed app and say hello. Someone there would be happy to help you.

We'll use this show to discuss cryptocurrencies (or as we prefer to call them: cryptoassets) such as Bitcoin. We'll also cover some alt coins from time to time. We likely won't mention any assets that have low liquidity since those assets are more prone to manipulation. Coins in our system include: Ethereum ETH, NEO, GAS, Litecoin LTC, Ripple XRP, Dogecoin, Pied Piper Coin PPI, Tether USDT, Stellar XLM, Nem XEM, Binance BNB, Kucoin KCS, ZCash ZEC, Monero XMR, Cardano ADA, Nano
