🗞 80 Percent of the Total Bitcoin Supply Have Now Been Mined

This weekend marks a milestone for bitcoin as 80 percent of the currency has now been mined into circulation, this means there’s only 20 percent left to mine.

🗞 This Week in Bitcoin: Kraken, Korea and a Whole Lotta Crazy

This week in bitcoin was all about Korea, although every week in bitcoin is all about Korea. Markets dropping? Blame Korea. Markets soaring? Credit Korea. Zero fee trading sends a pointless altcoin pumping? You bet it comes from Korea.

STEEM Trading Update by @cryptopassion

Here was my prediction of yesterday :

Unfortunately, the BTC did a drop which stopped also the UP of the STEEM

Here is the current chart :

As you can see, our support line was strong enough to stop the drop and we are using it to start a little UP. My objective of yesterday stays valid but we need to keep an eye on that support line. Any break of it will invalidate my objective.
