Bitcoin Cash [BCH] ABC stays ahead in terms of PoW and blocks mined; final result undecidednovember 18, 2018AMBcryptoThe Bitcoin Cash [BCH] hard fork has been the talk of the crypto-town over the past few weeks. The hard fork which has seen a split in the BCH community has not only created ripples across the BCH network but the entire crypto verse as well. The Bitcoin ABC team, which is led by Bitcoin.com CEO Roger Ver and Bitmain CEO Jihan Wu, has been winning the mining race. The other party called the Bitcoin Cash SV, led by nChain’s Craig Wright and Calvin Ayre has struggled to keep up with the ABC team in terms of the hard fork. At the time of writing, Bitcoin ABC was 52.9% ahead of the SV team in terms of Proof of Work [PoW]. Out of the 289 blocks mined, Bitcoin ABC was leading by 17 blocks. The hard fork has also resulted in the inception of two tokens, BAB, and BSV which are both presents on Tradingview. The hard fork’s excitement has not just been contained within the BCH network, with Charlie Lee, the Founder of Litecoin giving his comments on it too. He had said: “It will be interesting to see how that turns out. At the same time, Bcash is now pumping because of the upcoming fork. Maybe it’s because Coinbase and Bitcoin.com and Roger Ver, of course, all said that they would support Bitcoin ABC. Roger Ver, who has been quite vocal about the hard fork, had stated: “In my opinion, I really don’t know the real after effects of the fork. It can be both good and bad for the entire community. It’s just like the Y2K scare, you know. Everyone expected planes to fall out of the sky, but in the end, nothing much happened.” The post Bitcoin Cash [BCH] ABC stays ahead in terms of PoW and blocks mined; final result undecided appeared first on AMBCrypto.

More Crypto Exchanges Opening in Thailand, SEC Warns Approvals Needednovember 18, 2018Bitcoin.comA growing number of companies are entering the cryptocurrency space in Thailand.

Japan Confirms Entrance Into the Crypto Space Companies Entering Thai Crypto Space Since Thailand enacted its cryptocurrency regulations in May, a growing number of companies have been launching crypto exchanges and issuing tokens in the country. Q Exchange, a joint venture between Thai and South Korean companies, has been promoting its services in Thailand with a plan to open the first “cryptocurrency bank” in the country, Channel 3 News reported. The company aims for its Thai operation to be the crypto exchange hub of Asean countries, the media outlet detailed, and quoted the company’s general manager explaining: The goal is to open exchange branches nationwide of more than 30 branches in 2018 and increase to 70 branches in 2019. South Korea-based cryptocurrency exchange Coin25 announced on Tuesday that it has set up a subsidiary in Bangkok and “is operating more than 60 branches in Thailand and Laos,” Business Korea reported. However, this exchange only offers the trading of its own token. Mrc Biz Ltd. has also been promoting an initial coin offering (ICO) in Thailand, the Thai SEC revealed on Friday. Another company, Corexfly, announced that it was launching an exchange in Thailand back in August. “Corexfly has concluded an agreement with Korean exchange B&C to establish Dabit exchange in Thailand,” the company’s website states. Furthermore, South Korea’s two largest cryptocurrency exchanges, Upbit and Bithumb, have also unveiled their plans to open exchanges in Thailand. SEC Issues More Warnings According to Thailand’s cryptocurrency regulations, companies wanting to conduct crypto business in the country must gain approval from the SEC, the main regulator of the country’s crypto industry. So far, only six crypto exchanges and one dealer have been temporarily approved while their applications are being reviewed. The six exchanges are Bitcoin Co. Ltd. (Bx), Bitkub Online Co. Ltd., Cash2coins, Satang Corporation (Tdax), Coin Asset Co. Ltd., and Southeast Asia Digital Exchange Co. Ltd. (Seadex). Currently, Coins Th. is the only company that has been temporarily approved to operate as a cryptocurrency dealer. No approvals have been granted to new exchanges or token issuers. The SEC has issued several warnings against unauthorized crypto businesses and tokens. Recently, it warned investors about Db Holdings Plc. and nine unauthorized tokens. Rapee Sucharitakul. Q Exchange Ltd. also received a warning, the Thai SEC announced on Tuesday. The commission explained that while the company has not been granted approval, it has been advertising and soliciting customers to buy and sell cryptocurrencies. The SEC has notified the exchange to stop advertising and selling investments in the country. On Friday, the commission issued a warning against Mrc Biz Ltd. which has been promoting its ICO in Thailand without approval. The company has not submitted any applications to the SEC and has neither been approved to conduct crypto business nor issue tokens, the commission emphasized. Rapee Sucharitakul, secretary-general of the Thai SEC, was quoted by Bangkok Biz News on Thursday saying that the commission expects the finance ministry to approve the applications of some companies to operate crypto businesses such as ICO portals, exchanges or dealers in December.
