Who Owns GBTC, the "Bitcoin Investment Trust"? +Who Owns Them?
You may know, the trading symbol #GBTC represents the #BitcoinInvestmentTrust (#BIT) investment vehicle, which is like an ETF for accredited investors to indirectly buy into #BTC -- but do you know about the string of companies that [directly and indirectly] own the GBTC #Bitcoin trust?
So, which companies actually own & manage GBTC? (Hint: #Grayscale, subsidiary of the #DigitalCurrencyGroup) How is this all connected directly to the #Nasdaq corporation on #WallStreet? (Hint: #SecondMarket | #NASDAQPrivateMarket) And is there a vested interest for wall street insiders to rocket #cryptocurrencies when we least expect? Let's discuss!

Referral Link: https://r.indahash.com/participate/265.html
Hello Everyone! As you may know, I was invited to Warsaw, Poland to by the indaHash team, to see their base of operation, how they function as a team, and their new ICO (with other leading crypto-influencers) -- And review how their IDH Token will tokenize the influencer industry.
While I was there, I had the opportunity to sit down with their CEO Barbara, and dive deep by asking her the hard questions around several aspects of indaHash, the indaHash ICO, and how the IDH token is poised to tokenizing the entire influencer industry.
This is the interview, unscripted and unprepared, and under hot lights. Personally, I think she answered every question brilliantly, and this video may provide you a lot of insights into the indaHash company and the indaHash IDH Token ICO.

WOW! The Bitcoin-BTC price has exceeded $10,000 for the first time ($10 = 1 mBTC or 0.001 BTC), which crosses an important psychological barrier for the people of earth.
At the same time, many are concerned over the stock market and fiat currencies, across the global economy. And as the #cryptocurrency market capitalization hits the $300 billion mark, will financial institutions step away from the conventional markets, accelerating an #EconomicCrash?
So, is #MaxKeiser correct, when he says the #USDollar Collapsing Against Bitcoin? Will we see, or more abruptly, are we seeing, fiat currencies in #hyperinflation collapse against #Bitcoin? And is this something that any central bank or country will be able to stop or control? Let's Discuss!

While short-term, Bitcoin needs to mature & solve major scaling issues (to be more than just a store of value, and also become digital cash), a proven bank analyst is predicting the price per Bitcoin will still hit $100,000, within the next ten years (a conservative number compared to other recent predictions).
Is Bitcoin just a fad, or will Bitcoin emerge as the most critical form of money for the entire future world? Let's discuss! (Covfefe.)

I.R.S. Bitcoin Tracing Tools; Track & Identify Transactions via Chainalysis: https://steemit.com/@garypalmerjr
As we mentioned in yesterdays video, #Bitcoin is not 100% anonymous; is only pseudo-anonymous, and while some of your privacy may be leaking online, analytics companies like "#Chainalysis" are sifting-up the details and placing tags on a whopping 25%-plus, of all Bitcoin addresses!
And now, we find out that U.S. #InternalRevenueService (yes, the beloved #IRS) is using this #BitcoinTracing software (from the startup "Chainalysis") to monitor as many Bitcoin transaction as possible.
So, if you pay your taxes and have no secretes, then do you have anything to worry about? Should we be upset that exchanges like #Coinbase are allegedly storing wallets in such a way that an analytics company like Chainalysis or #BitSeer can identify individual users?
And what does it mean that the owners of Coinbase have an ownership stake in the startup Chainalysis?

Goldman Sachs + SEC = Circle Acquires Poloniex ♥ Become A Patron: https://www.patreon.com/MintingCoins
Circle just announced that it is acquiring U.S.-based cryptocurrency exchange Poloniex. According to Fortune, Circle is paying $400 million for the acquisition. Circle Trade fosters liquidity between a handful of fiat currencies and cryptocurrencies, and has big investors — including Goldman Sachs, Chinese Internet giant Baidu, and venture capitalist Jim Breyer. In Circle's last round of funding, in June 2016, Circle was valued at $480 million. (It’s no doubt worth a lot more now.)
Poloniex has been around for years and used to be one of the biggest exchanges out there — there are now many exchanges competing with Poloniex. Circle Trade also powers Circle Pay behind the scene; Circle Trade manages $2 billion a month in transactions; and Centre is a protocol that is seeking to make Alipay, PayPal, Circle and other digital wallets interoperable.
Big changes are coming to crypto. Let's Discuss!

Is it possible for us to see a #Fedcoin in 3 Years? Is it possible to see within 20 to 30 years? Let's discuss!
What is the Federal Reserve? Who own the Federal Reserve, and is it organized? The Federal Reserve is organized by the Federal Reserve Board of Governors (Board of Governors), and the 12 Reserve Banks operates within its own particular geographic area, or District, of the United States. While Federal Reserve Board of Governors members are appointed by the President (with the advice and consent of the Senate), the Federal Reserve has frequent communication with executive branch and congressional officials, its decisions are made independently of any branch of government.
