BITCOIN NETWORK EXPERIENCES SLOWEST BLOCK IN 5 YEARS [bitcoinist.com]
The Bitcoin (BTC) network produced an unusually slow block, taking 119 minutes to discover the block number. The anomaly is happening despite the record activity of miners.

The rejection at this level was more bearish than anticipated, or it will be, depending on how Bitcoin will react henceforth.

Dr. Craig Wright at CoinGeek Seoul: Finding new paths to Bitcoin use [coingeek.com]

Wright concluded his speech by emphasizing just how little he cares about the public perception of Bitcoin, in the end: I don’t care if they want to like Bitcoin, I care if they use it. Not HODL it. Use it. And if every person on Earth is using Bitcoin, there’s a lot of Bitcoin being distributed to a lot of people. Goes up in value. Everyone’s happy, well at least if you’ve got Bitcoin you’re happy anyway. So this is the whole point. We need to start building applications that people are going to use.

Ethereum Uptrend Flagging at Important Resistance – Price Analysis [cryptoglobe.com]
