🗞 Experimental Voting Effort Aims to Break Ethereum Governance Gridlock

When people think of ethereum, they generally think also of the protocol's developer Vitalik Buterin, now - off his creation - a multi-millionaire.

No doubt, Buterin is a leader of sorts for the community, even if decision-making is somewhat decentralized. And above that, ethereum's most active developers have a significant amount of say in the direction of the technology.

🗞 Tom Lee Holds to $25,000 Bitcoin Price Prediction, Cites Three Supporting Factors

Co-founder and Fundstrat strategist Tom Lee is holding to his prediction that Bitcoin (BTC) will reach $25,000, CNBC reports May 23. Lee identifies three key factors that make him believe the price will surge past the 2017 high.

On Wednesday, BTC dropped below $8,000 and traded around $7,500, losing most of the gains it made from mid-April to early May. With Wednesday's plunge, BTC is now down 41 percent this year. Lee believes the drop is only due to “typical crypto volatility”, and explains his bullish stance with three major factors.

🗞 Bet vs. Buy? The ICO Market Has a Serious East-West Divide

In the U.S., initial coin offerings (ICOs) are about ideas. In the Asian market, they're about returns.

"At the very beginning, the information coming from Asia to the US was very limited. We didn't know what's really going on," Zhuling Chen, co-founder of Aelf, a cloud computing startup out of Singapore, told CoinDesk.

STEEM Trading Update by my friend @cryptopassion

Here is the chart of yesterday :

Here is the current chart :

The support line at 2.85$ has been broken but we quickly came back higher than this line. So till now, we cannot consider this support line as really broken but it is a dangerous momentum. The STEEM is again impacted by the BTC drop and we have to see how the king of the crypto will move in the coming hours. Anyway, the STEEM is really reacting well these last days. Let's hope that the new drop on the BTC won't damage too much the good trend that we were starting to have on the STEEM. This support line must hold !
