đ Why Bitcoin couldnât continue its bullish run in 2017, and can the marketâs rising go back (source)
Being near the $6700 point, Bitcoin ($BTC) has a price of $6 591,15 at the present moment. In a very short time location, itâs going down. But, many of the experts recognized (right or not, as future will show) that this is a probably renaissance of the bullish run. But, Yukio Noguchi, Japanese economist, is more about to look in the previous market conditions of the $BTC. By his opinion, reasons for the past marketâs fall can be defined exactly, so letâs study it.
Futures stopped the Bitcoinâs rally? Among other theories, including the financial, market researchers, behavioristic etc., the sentence that futures made the worst impact in relate to Bitcoin, isnât new. But, the economist goes further, stating that this situation is the reason that will not allow BTC to rise again.
âBecause itâs now possible to trade on bitcoin futures, youâll never see a rapid surge again.â
As argument, the day when Bitcoinâs futures began to trade, has become the new point when the BTC stopped its bullish trend. This happened on December 10, 2017, when the BTCâs price has dropped about $3,000 in 1 day. Further, assessing the behavior of investors, and a futures segment, he concludes that there will be no bullish, when BTC futures exist. Very pessimistic, but various theories should be known.

đ Attack on Ethereum? ETH transactions number fall below 500,000 (source)
Ethereum, which now costs $469,59, has never fall below 650 000 â 750 000 number of transactions. At the first sight, there is no problem with it, but, according to the research, less than 500 000 transactions is a marker of something changing.
Now it is known that in the gas fees have suddenly grown. This may be a sign that someone pays more fees than always, and this is making the network use more expensive for other members. Is there a danger to the Ethereum? The situation with the increase of fees can significantly affect usability of the network in future.
Who could do this? Experts believe that this is the type of attack on the network, which is can be described as mining through transactions. Other members connected the problems with ETH network with the FCoin exchange vote, which also uses this mining model. But, itâs still early to talk whose fault is this.

đ OK Cashbag can convert cashpoints to cryptocurrency (source)
OK Cashbag is an oldest company in South Korea which is oriented on rewards for users who use SK affiliated merchants services. Cashbag is going to tokenize its virtual points in a little bit different way, making the âstable coinâ. The working name of this token is âOKXâ, and, as we can think, the idea is still under research, after the some few announcements.
Is OK Cashbag base is large? The latest data says that 35 million users are into this reward program, and about 50,000 stores are also connected to it. SK Planet (head company of OK Cashbag) calculated the total cost of new tokens, which are the same reward now, as $100 million USD.
However, such an initiative may face difficulties. With the present background, Korean regulators may not allow the development of the program; so, they accurately call the tokenization as the "prepaid electronic payment means." Original source (SK).

đ Japanese FSA is going to change exchangeâs regulation (source)
Whatâs new that FSA (Japanese Financial Services Agency) decides to regulate crypto exchanges as Financial Instruments and Exchange Act (FIEA), more like as financial products, instead of payment system model (itâs how the FSA defines them at the legal level).
Experts noticed that the new law procedure can allow operate with crypto derivatives like with the exchange traded funds (ETF). Japan is now changing its policy towards the cryptocurrency. Keeping its opinion on the fundamental aspects of regulation, it is planned to reduce the tax on cryptocurrency incomes, and also to introduce the fixed tax.

Why is this happening with ethereum? Every transaction costs much more money right now. Who is attacking?
As I know it's because if massive small airdrops because of FCoin exchange. I don't see any other conspiracy behind this.
Some of the people were screaming in the chats that Eos can attack Eth because of the timing(Eos launch). But I don't think that they would do that.
