Yet another top-20 cryptocurrency has officially released live software.

As of 0:00 UTC Saturday, the first block on the VeChain blockchain, whose token supply is valued at $1.46 billion at writing, has been mined, marking a milestone for a project that aims to convince businesses to adopt code tied to a crypto asset traded on a public market.

🗞 Recently Found Double Spending Vulnerability Is Not Tether’s Own, SlowMist Confirms

STEEM Trading Update by my friend @cryptopassion

Here is the chart of yesterday :

Here is the current chart :

We had a nice bounce on the STEEM, due mostly to the bounce on the BTC. We are now testing the previous TOP where I traced you a green line. If we are able to break that little resistance line around 1.36$, we will try to test the upper line at 1.50$ which is a most important resistance line. Let's see if we can break first the green line, because a new drop is not excluded in the direction of the 1$.
