🗞 Up 80%: XRP's September Wasn't Just Bullish, It Was Record-Setting

XRP sprang back to life in September despite a relatively bearish broader market.

Over the course of the 30-day period, the price of the world's largest cryptocurrency, bitcoin (BTC), dipped a modest 5 percent. Most cryptocurrencies succumbed to the same fate, but some were able to pick up a bid. However, none saw bigger gains than XRP, whose performance in September wasn't just bullish, it was record-setting.

On September 21 alone, the price of XRP shot up more than 75 percent and ended the day with its most trading volume ever recorded on the popular cryptocurrency exchange, Bitfinex.

🗞 Kill Switch Engaged: Sia Blockchain to Block Bitmain and Other Big Miners

After nearly a year of acrimonious debate, the Sia blockchain is moving to give big mining companies the boot.

David Vorick, founder and CEO of Nebulous – the for-profit company behind the $233 million distributed storage protocol – told CoinDesk that Sia will soon move to enact a software change meant to block certain types of specialized mining hardware from the platform, allowing hardware manufactured by Nebulous subsidiary Obelisk to remain one of the only ways to collect the blockchain's lucrative cryptocurrency rewards.

"Sia's decided to fork to obsolete or brick the Innosilicon and Bitmain hardware," Vorick said, referring to Obelisk's rival manufacturers of application-specific integrated circuit (ASIC) mining equipment for Siacoin.

STEEM Trading Update by my friend @cryptopassion

Here is the chart of yesterday :

Here is the current chart :

Nothing new on the STEEM, we are staying closely in the same canal between 0.83$ and 0.88$. A nice Break Out should come soon. Let's hope it will be to go touch the resistance line at 1$ and even better, to break this line. We start to have nice support lines below our current level so yeah we are not anymore in the worst scenario for the STEEM.
