Does anybody even read TIME Magazine anymore? Who knows? But the magazine seems to believe it can boost readership by pairing up with Crypto.com to ensure that subscribers can pay for their subscriptions with digital currency in the future. TIME is Partnering with Crypto.com The idea of using cryptocurrencies to pay for items has always been a goal of bitcoin’s creators. Those behind the development of digital currencies had always pictured digital assets as payment...

China has had a very up-and-down relationship with bitcoin. The nation has often been rather harsh with the world’s number one digital currency by market cap, and yet in many ways, it holds a large stake in the digital currency market. Much of the world’s bitcoin mining operations stem from China; it houses the two biggest distributors of mining equipment in both Bitmain and Canaan Creative, and it was once one of the world’s largest purchasers of BTC. China Now Seems to...

It was recently trading as high as $63,000. Bitcoin Falls Following an End to Coinbase Hype In addition to bitcoin, other major altcoins including...

Bitcoin has taken a turn for the worse. Following news of Coinbase going public on the Nasdaq last week, the world’s number one digital currency by market cap rose to nearly $64,000 per unit, though at press time, it has knocked roughly $8,000 off its price. Bitcoin Has Taken a Nasty Fall At first glance, this looks like a standard correction. We have all seen instances like this in the past. When bitcoin spikes to new highs rather suddenly, it becomes obvious over a few...

Bitcoin has been doing extremely well as of late. Not too long ago, the world’s number one digital currency by market cap reached a new all-time high of approximately $63,000 per unit, though according to some – such as Mark Cuban, the billionaire owner of the Dallas Mavericks basketball team – we have only hit the tip of the iceberg, and the price of bitcoin is going to get much bigger. Mark Cuban: BTC Will Be a Much Bigger Asset BTC has struck new heights over the past...

It looks like the trend of bitcoin being used as a method of payment is being taken to new heights. Now that companies like Tesla and PayPal are permitting bitcoin payments for goods and services, several additional companies around the world – both large and small – are allowing BTC payments as well. Bitcoin Is Now the Hot Method of Payment One of the enterprises saying “yes” to bitcoin payments is the Bobby Hotel. Based in Nashville, Tennessee, it is the first hotel in...

The great desire for bitcoin mining to run on clean energy has taken an unexpected turn. While many people still demand this for the future, it looks like renewable energy is not as common as it once was. In fact, the Nordic region – which includes countries like Iceland and Norway – has become a staple area for this kind of energy, and yet it appears to be running dry. Bitcoin Mining Needs Clean Energy, but Supplies Seem Limited For the past few months, as bitcoin has...

There is a major bearish trend line forming with resistance near $58,200 on the 4-hours chart of the BTC/USD pair (data feed from Coinbase).

Bitcoin and its primary rival Ethereum have been spiking like crazy, but in truth, their price jumps can barely hold a candle to those of Dogecoin. Dogecoin Is On the Rise The currency has been something of an enigma over the past few years and has also seen its fair share of controversy. What is it designed for and who should be using it? These are only some of the many questions that both analysts and traders are likely asking themselves, and it is quite clear that...

Jim Cramer – legendary investor and host of “Mad Money” – has become a sudden bitcoin advocate, and claims he paid off his house using the asset. Jim Cramer Is Now a BTC Fan In the past, Cramer claims to have purchased quite a bit of the world’s number one digital currency when it was priced at around $12,000 per unit. Since then, he claims to have sold a large stake and raked in some heavy profit. He has used some of the funds to pay off his home, thereby clarifying...
