Tom Lee: According to TA, Bitcoin enters the bull market
Lee tweeted that Bitcoin exceeded the 200-day moving average on January 27, which should be considered a “positive milestone” and reinforces his belief that 2020 should be a “big year” for Bitcoin. Lee explained that whenever Bitcoin’s price exceeds the 200-day moving average, the win-rate (within the next six months) rises to 80%, which means Bitcoin “re-enters” the bull market.

Bittrex acquired asset insurance of up to USD 300 million
Bittrex, an American cryptobourse, announced today that it has acquired digital property insurance in its cold storage hardware. In the event of external theft, the agreement will cover a loss of up to $ 300 million.

Google deleted their apk from Google Play without warning
Last week, the Google Play store deleted without warning an app that used a cryptocurrency reward system, which at that time was the top rated bitcoin reward app with nearly 1.4 million users. This move by Google Play follows several more serious actions by Google against crypto-community in the last few weeks, including prominent Metamask and many YouTubers. Many (though not all) of these bans were reversed after the crypto-community publicly protested on social networks.
More than 50% of US authorities were attacked by ransomware
In 2019, more than half of all US public and private organizations were victims of ransomware attacks. Hackers continued to use increasingly advanced techniques to infect machines and encrypt sensitive data that they promised to return to their original state after paying the ransom, often in cryptocurrencies.
