On a previous article we discussed hardware Bitcoin mining. This time, we get to analyse cloud mining, what it is, how it's done and how one can make the most out of it. What is Bitcoin Cloud Mining? First things first, let's see what cloud mining actually is.
Among the many innovations Bitcoin offers, one of it's most important aspects is that can be acquired through mining. By combining numerous technologies, Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous creator of the Digital currency brought something unique to the new age economy.
Earlier on 1 August, the well known gaming live streaming website started accepting Bitcoin as a payment option for it's premium subscriptions. Twitch also that it will be bringing the new payment options for channel subscriptions as well.
On the 30 July added as a donation option among the 13 different payment methods. It seems like the non profit foundation behind Wikipedia was waiting for something. Compared to other non profit organisations, we could even say that Wikimedia could even be late to start accepting the digital currency for donations.
An extremely advanced -based ransomware trojan was discovered by security experts last month. It's the first malware of this kind to use TOR network to anonymously communicate with a central command and control server. Ransomware is a kind of malware that tends to block access to certain systems of the computer that it infects.
Anonymity has always been sought after in the digital currency community. Many mistakenly think that Bitcoin itself is inherently anonymous, when it is in fact it provides pseudonymity at best. This has caused quite a stir in the community, and many developers have begun to offer their own solutions.
Multiple-Algorithm, or Multi-Algo for short, has become the next technological step in the crypto-currency community, opening up new doors for new miners to the crypto-currency world. It was originally introduced on February 23rd, 2014, with Myriadcoin's "Multi-PoW" technology, after some debate relating to how it should work on bitcointalk.org.
The beginning In late February 2014, a brand new e-currencies stepped into existence within the altcoin ecosystem. Myriadcoin is a new alternative cryptocurrency based on Bitcoin. What Myriad especially appealing is it's unique feature that allows it to be mined through solving several cryptography algorithms, at the same time.
It looks like Cryptsy, one of the biggest altcoin exchanges will be introducing it's new USD markets soon. The exchange has been around since early 2013, and the announcement of the USD markets is not really something new. We knew that those markets were going to arrive someday thanks to cryptsy's cryptostock.
After the tragedy of Mt. Gox, once the highest volume Bitcoin exchange, Japanese authorities are most likely already working on a plan of action to regulate the virtual currency. New guidelines will be issued by the cabinet, possibly later this week. A decision will be made for how the currency should be treated under the already existing laws.
