Over 4,000 bitcoins from administrative forfeitures and legal cases are set to be auctioned off by the U.S. Marshals Service later this month. To participate, potential bidders have to make a $200,000 deposit they will get back if they don’t win their bids.
Mastercard’s CEO Ajay Banga has detailed why the organization left the Facebook-led Libra Association, making it clear that regulatory and viability concerns were behind the move.
Waves, an open-source blockchain organization, has set up a non-profit foundation in Germany to promote Web 3.0 and blockchain technology while supporting its own infrastructure.
