💥SEC Chairman Highlights Investor Protection in Regard to Bitcoin ETF
United States Securities and Exchanges Commission (SEC) Chairman Jay Clayton is still concerned about investor protection when it comes to the commission approving a Bitcoin (BTC) Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF). The SEC chairman spoke about crypto in an interview with FOX Business on March 14.
In the interview, Clayton claimed to be neutral toward digital currencies, saying that he is not a spokesperson against the asset. The SEC chairman explained that he is concerned with the potential for manipulation associated with the space, and wants to guarantee investor protection:
“What I’m concerned about at the moment is if it can be reasonably demonstrated that the underlying trading is generally not manipulated, it’s happening on reliable venues with good rules and that custody is something we can feel comfortable about.”

💥Japan: Hacker Involved in 15 Mln Yen Crypto Theft Referred to Prosecutors
An 18-year-old hacker was referred to prosecutors in the Japanese city of Utsunomiya for stealing cryptocurrency, local news outlet Japan Today reported on March 14.
The cybercriminal allegedly hacked Monappy, a digital wallet which can be installed on a smartphone, and stole 15 million yen ($134,196) of cryptocurrency between Aug. 14 and Sept. 1 of last year. The hack reportedly affected more than 7,700 users.
The hacker reportedly used the Tor software that enables users to anonymize web traffic. However, the police identified the hacker by analyzing the communication records stored on the website’s server. According to Japan Today, the hacker admitted to the allegations.
The attacker submitted multiple cryptocurrency transfer requests to his own account, which overwhelmed the system and allowed him to direct more funds to his account. After that, he transferred the coins to another cryptocurrency operator, received dividends and spent the money.

💥Jeff Garzik Subpoenaed in Kleiman Bitcoin Lawsuit Against Craig Wright
On March 15, well-known Bitcoin developer Jeff Garzik revealed he was subpoenaed by the U.S. District Court of Southern Florida in the infamous Kleiman vs Wright bitcoin lawsuit. The Kleiman family is suing the self-proclaimed Satoshi for roughly 300,000 BTC and Garzik has been served by the court and asked to submit assorted documents and possible evidence that would be relevant to the case.
The Kleiman estate and David Kleiman’s brother Ira Kleiman believe Craig Wright defrauded David and manipulated his assets. Some people believe that David Kleiman (deceased) may have been the creator of Bitcoin and the estate thinks he is owed about 300,000 BTC ($1.1 billion) from a trust that allegedly has 1 million BTC locked until the year 2020. News.Bitcoin.com recently reported on Wright’s response to the billion dollar lawsuit after Judge Beth Bloom denied his attempt at dismissing the charges. Now the early Bitcoin adopter and developer Jeff Garzik is involved with the lawsuit as he announced he’s been served with a subpoena to appear in court. The subpoena stems from the Kleiman’s council and asks Garzik to submit any evidence to the theory that David Kleiman was Satoshi Nakamoto.
“You got served,” Garzik exclaimed on Twitter. “The Bitcoin lawsuit drones on. In the interest of radical transparency, here’s the subpoena that just arrived for me (sans page 1).”

💥Crypto Enthusiasts Unite in 4 Indian Cities to Voice Regulatory Suggestions
A community roadshow has been uniting crypto enthusiasts in several cities in India to share their ideas on the country’s crypto regulation. “The best ones will be included in the report to be submitted to the decision makers amongst the government,” the organizer of the events explained.
Blockchained India has been hosting a series of roadshow meetups in a number of cities in the country where it has chapters. The theme of the meetings is “Does India need crypto regulations?” These events are part of a run-up to the group’s larger event called the “India Dapp Fest” which is planned for May.
There are four open town hall meetings altogether. One is being held on March 16 in Hyderabad. Two have already been held: one in Delhi and the other in Mumbai. The fourth meeting in the series will take place in Bangalore on March 30. Manav Ailawadi, a key member of the group, was quoted by Crypto News India on Friday as saying:
So far, everything that has been happening on a national level (for crypto) has been about cryptocurrency exchanges, primarily. We wanted to unite the community which also includes, investors, stakeholders, developers, and make them a part of the conversation.

💥Governments Exploit Christchurch Tragedy to Enforce Censorship and Thought Policing
No sooner had the victims of the Christchurch attack fallen than governments were clamoring to mine the tragedy for political capital. Despite the shooting having been live streamed on Facebook, antipodean officials have directed their ire against fringe websites in a desperate bid to control the narrative and criminalize curious civilians.
In the wake of the mass shooting that left 50 people dead in Christchurch, New Zealand, the usual activists have emerged to condemn their particular bête noire. Some want greater gun controls, some want a crackdown on online extremism, a few object to violent video games, while others seek greater internet surveillance, enhanced police funding and increased investigative powers. The ability to openly debate emotive issues is an integral part of the democratic process. Few would deny the right of the offended and the grief-stricken to table these topics, even if they might blanche at some of their knee-jerk solutions.

💥While Tether Withdraws Claim of USD Backing, Rival Stablecoins Provide Monthly Attestations
The controversy surrounding the backing of Tether’s USDT tokens has resurfaced following a recent alteration to the company’s terms of service that now state the reserves backing USDT comprise “traditional currency and cash equivalents and … other assets and receivables from loans made by Tether to third parties.” Despite tether’s dominance among stablecoins by market share and capitalization, Tether is facing increasing competition from newer stablecoin projects that have been able to provide regular attestations evidencing U.S. dollar backing since launch.
Tether has updated its terms of service regarding the backing of its USDT token, apparently reversing previous assertions that all USDT tokens are backed one-to-one with USD reserves.
Tether’s homepage now states that “Every tether is always 100% backed by our reserves, which include traditional currency and cash equivalents and, from time to time, may include other assets and receivables from loans made by Tether to third parties, which may include affiliated entities.”

💥Cryptopia Resumes Trading, Plans Rebate
The New Zealand-based cryptocurrency exchange Cryptopia is now open for trading again. The platform, which was hacked at the start of the year losing almost 10 percent of its assets, has announced that it’s resumed trading on 40 trade pairs that its team has quantified as secure and will continue to expand this list as they clear more coins.
The Cryptopia team also sent out an email to update customers on the progress they are making, promising there will be a rebate for those who lost funds. Users will start to see withdrawals of their lost funds and a deposit of Cryptopia Loss Marker (CLM) instead. The platform explained that CLM is not a coin, it can’t be traded as yet, and is rather just a number in the database that represents the loss for each coin for each user in $NZD at the time of the hack. The rebate won’t be immediate as the company still needs to take steps ensure that the planned reimbursement process follows local laws.

💥Crypto Industry Lobbying Intensifies in US
As regulators and lawmakers get more involved in any market, businesses in the field usually feel they have to respond by hiring lobbyists to represent their interests with politicians. As such it should come as no surprise that there’s been a strong regulatory push in the U.S. to control the digital assets market, such as instructing projects who they can offer tokens to and classifying certain coins as securities. This in turn has led to cryptocurrency companies stepping up their political game. A new report shows that the industry almost tripled its lobbying efforts over the last year.
“Lobbying on cryptocurrencies and the blockchain technology underpinning them is a niche but growing industry on K Street,” Politico reported on Monday. “The number of entities that reported lobbying on blockchain issues has nearly tripled over the past year, according to disclosure filings — from a dozen in the fourth quarter of 2017 to 33 in the final quarter of 2018.”

💥Anonymity and Bitcoin: What Is a Bitcoin Mixing Service?
Despite its reputation, Bitcoin is not exactly anonymous. Unless you use a service like Bitcoin Mixer, transactions are, in fact, traceable.
What do you know about Bitcoin? For many people, especially beginners, Bitcoin is anonymous. But you need to pause for a moment and ask yourself if that is really true.
Most who have been on the market long enough understand the true nature of BTC – as pseudo-anonymous. Someone can track your transactions and use the information in real life. They can follow up a transaction and figure out its origin.
Every transaction on Bitcoin is recorded and kept on a public ledger. In this sense, you can access transaction from other users as long as you have a full chain.

💥Bakkt Parent Company ICE Expands Its Crypto Data Feed
ICE, the company behind Bakkt, has announced a new list of coins that will be added to its Cryptocurrency Data Feed. Bakkt is a long-awaited and often-delayed Bitcoin futures trading platform, and in the absence of any new information, news about ICE’s data feed has attracted plenty of attention.
ICE says that its data feed will now include over sixty cryptocurrencies, many of which are top-ranking coins such as Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, and Ripple. Several other altcoins have also been added to the feed, as well as stablecoins and exchange-related tokens. The full list of cryptocurrencies can be seen on ICE’s website or on Twitter.
It is not clear if the listed cryptocurrencies will be integrated with Bakkt. Bakkt is specifically a trading platform that will offer Bitcoin-settled crypto future contracts. ICE’s data feed simply provides market information and can be used separately. The two could be used together, though, as the feed does include information on crypto futures.
