DADI ICO was hacked and particpants personal information may have been leaked. Take caution to carefully check all received emails. The hackers are sending emails that contain a link to myetherwallet.com, but with dots underneath the letters (similar to the recent Binance phishing site). Some of you may also remember last month's data leak, which allowed phishers to make off with $60k in ethereum.

The Lightning Network (LN) notched another historic achievement over the weekend, as the LN mainnet reached 1,000 active nodes for the first time in its short history. However, users have yet to use it to transact meaningful capital. The network is only holding about 4.5 BTC, worth about $43,000 at the present exchange rate. Moreover, nearly forty percent of network-connected nodes do not have any active payment channels.

The European Commission has confirmed that it is paying attention to concerns about rising electricity consumption for cryptocurrency mining in the European Union. However, there is currently no legal basis to prevent or limit energy consumed within the EU.
Ultimately, the Commission has not invoked any way to track cryptocurrency mining because it is not an illegal activity. However, the Commission will review the activity as it impacts the demand for energy.

The condition of market is such that even good news are also not able to move the markets, while a single bad news/FUD is crashing the market. I believe new money is fearing to enter the space after what happened in recent crash.
So many hacks. Unfortunately this gives reason for the SEC in the US and other regulating financial authorities to clamp down on all cryptos and pass various regulations. These hinder the progress and establishment of cryptos in the world.

It is really a bitty that they only allow native investments.
@boxmining thanks for up dates
great news @boxmining
Legality if mining coins in Europe has been under discussion for some time now. Althought it was inevitable for them to admit that their is no legal basis to ban mining but we would have be careful for any news in the near future about it.
Thanks for the update.
Your blog contains very useful informations.
Regarding you bitcoin news, I agree, I think the selloff is not over. Why? Because before your eyes, you are seeing the beauty of an unregulated market full of amateurs. Scared money is what rules the market right now. You have people who have taken mortgages, loans, and even sold property to buy more cryptocurrency. The reason you got into cryptocurrency should be for days like this. Buying the dips. You are looking for financial freedom while also having a direct impact in the future of money. That’s what is going to make you money!
