Welcome to the Daily Crypto News: A complete Press Review, Coin Calendar and Trading Analysis. Enjoy!

🗞 State of Lightning: What’s the Path for Network Adoption in 2019?

Created by blockchain analytics startup 1ML, the snapshot represents all of the nodes running lightning software and creating public payment channels atop the bitcoin blockchain.

Looks complex, right? And believe it or not, this network is getting progressively larger each day according to 1ML.

According to blockchain analytics site P2SH.info, the amount of bitcoin sent through lightning channels since last June has skyrocketed from less than 25 BTC to 578 BTC.

🗞 Don’t Throw the Crypto Tokens Out With the Bathwater

A year into the crypto market meltdown, we’ve gone from one extreme to the other.

Where investors and commentators were once consumed with the naïve belief that ICO-funded startups would quickly usher in a new token-driven decentralized economy and unlock untold wealth, we’re now at a point where any idea associated with tokens, good or bad, struggles for legitimacy and money.

It’s time to find the middle ground.

Token-economics is not some hocus-pocus concept. That bitcoin and ethereum’s incentive systems have sustained viable, decentralized communities exchanging value and building products is proof of that. But to assume people will quickly adopt similar models across all sorts of mainstream industries when their livelihoods currently depend upon incumbent centralized systems is also dangerously misplaced.

🗞 8 Food Delivery Sites That Accept Cryptocurrency

Purchasing goods and services online with cryptocurrency is becoming increasingly popular. A growing number of takeaway platforms around the world are ready to accept your digital cash in exchange for a tasty meal, be it a pizza, burger or vegan dish.

With pizza being among the first items purchased with bitcoin, it only seems fitting that we should start with a pizza delivery portal that accepts cryptocurrency. Pizzaforcoins is a service based in California where you can order from major chains such as Domino’s, Pizza Hut or Papa John’s.

Other, more established food ordering services offer bitcoin enthusiasts much larger menus to choose from. Amsterdam-headquartered Takeaway.com accepts cryptocurrency on some of the platforms it owns in Europe. One of them is Germany’s largest food delivery portal, Lieferando, acquired by the Dutch company four years ago.

🗞 Iran Soon to Unveil Cryptocurrency With Aim to Skirt US and SWIFT: Source

Iran could unveil its state-backed cryptocurrency at the Electronic Banking and Payment Systems conference in Tehran this week, local English-language news outlet Al Jazeera reported on Jan. 27.

Iran, which has faced fresh sanctions from the United States since November, had previously planned to use blockchain-based financial tools as a way of sidestepping restrictions on its economic growth.

🗞 Bloq Labs Reveals Software Suite That Aims to Increase Hash Power by Double Digits

The blockchain organization Bloq Labs has introduced a beta version of a new software suite for cryptocurrency miners called Titan. Bloq co-founder Jeff Garzik announced the project at the recent Binance conference in Singapore and claims the protocol can maximize a mining machine’s hashrate by double digits with thoughtful configuration and dynamic adjustment.

Here is the current chart :

Just go back into my analysis 2 days ago for the STEEM and you will see that I was already predicting you to go touch that line in orange. So this target has been touched today and look what is happening... we have an immediate bounce. So what is the next now, we need to see if that line will hold us. It is possible that we try to break it again but it needs to hold us if we don't want go test the next support line in red...

Thank you my dear !

It always nice to see more and more adoption os cryptos.
I want to know when they will start to use the SBD and STEEM as currency.

I wish it would happen soon but I unfortunately doubt it...

Me too. I think that we need to wait a few more years to that be a reality.
