The emergence of a buzzing crypto tech startup scene around Zug’s Crypto Valley has given unusual blockchain projects the impetus to take big ideas to the market. As an example: the country’s biggest telecom provider, which is backed by the Swiss government, has announced Noow, a blockchain service that allows customers to access digital artworks.

The move means that millions of Swiss residents will have access to art on the blockchain via their TV.

Bitcoin (BTC) will always be a better solution for cross-border payments than XRP, according to the head of a Hong Kong-based remittance company. George Harrap, CEO of Bitspark, says that bitcoin has a clear edge because it is already globally accepted and has sufficient liquidity for established remittance companies.

Who could forget the end of 2017? A booming bitcoin price dragged the entire market up as the OG crypto tickled the underbelly of $20,000 on December 16. Cryptocurrencies were seemingly on the brink of imminent widespread adoption.

Then they fell. And fell. And continued to fall, hitting what pundits hope will be a low point in December 2018 – January 2019.

A few days of calm… but investors weren’t fooled. Brief hesitation around the $8,000 mark turned into another euphoric Bitcoin bull run as the cryptocurrency streaked past $8,500 earlier today.
