    More Bitcoin than ever was just made private with this technique

    More Bitcoin than ever was made private this month through an anonymization strategy known as CoinJoin. And if you own Bitcoin, but use centralized exchanges or other similar services, privacy experts say you should probably consider doing it too. Bitcoin mixers that use the CoinJoin technique, such as Wasabi and Samurai Wallet, have seen huge growth in recent months, according to open source data shared by Wasabi contributor and educator Max Hillebrand.  Non-custodial wallets (i.e. wallets whic...

    CryptoKitties scratch Ethereum, find new life on Flow blockchain

    CryptoKitties, pioneers of the crypto collectible craze, are getting a blockchain makeover. Dapper Labs, the creators of CryptoKitties, today announced that the digital collectibles will be migrating away from the Ethereum network and moving on over to its own custom-built blockchain, Flow, which launched last year. The move to Flow will see CryptoKitties get new features, such as animated 3D attributes, the ability for these digital assets to be playable within other games on Flow, and—perhaps...

    BlockFi data breach could have been prevented, Bitcoin experts say

And the crypto community isn’t taking the news well. The company said in an incident report sent to users that sensitive information from accounts, such as names, email addresses, dates of birth, physical...

    Flash crash! Whales sink price of Bitcoin

    Here we go again. Bitcoin (and just about everything else) crashed 15% during a 7 minute period when a whale or whales unloaded their BTC. At around 5:26 PM PST, Coinbase went down as well, but service was restored by 6:14PM. The top 10 coins by market cap, as usual, saw similar declines, with Ethereum plummeting from $210 to $191. Apparently, whales started liquidating their BTC positions in $2 million chunks just as the clock struck 5 PM in California. Bitcoin dropped from $9561 to $8570 in...

    Facebook’s new oversight board is cover for censorship, critics say

    As the battle between free speech and censorship festers throughout the Internet, Facebook is taking steps to distribute its power to police content away from its own executives through the introduction of a new Oversight Board. But the move is causing some to raise alarm bells, and could be a sign of the growing need for decentralized alternatives to the Web2 platforms of old. Earlier this week, Facebook announced the first members of its new oversight board who are tasked with making decisions...
