BCH miners end mining!
After an epic sale on the cryptocurrency market, much of the BCH cryptocurrency miners decided to leave the network and stop mining. Network demands have dropped by almost 30% in recent days. A similar decline, albeit not so extreme, has been reported by the BTC network.

The decrease in hashrate and thus network performance gives chances to those who have continued to benefit from the network. Because they are able to extract a little more BTC in the same time.

Telegram project is in great troubles
Up to 10 large investors have decided to return the money they invested in the ICO Cryptocurrency. Probably out of fear that the SEC would completely stop this project. If it really did, it would be a big problem. The news comes after an injunction earlier this week by a federal judge in New York. The judge ruled that the distribution of gram tokens would violate U.S. securities laws. This Court ruled:
Considering the economic realities under the Howey test, the Court finds that, in the context of that scheme, the resale of Grams into the secondary public market would be an integral part of the sale of securities without a required registration statement.
We will have to wait for the final verdict on whether the Cryptocurrency Gram and its sale will be totally banned, or will eventually allow distribution after the SEC has met. If the SEC decided that ICO was illegal, it could be the end of the project. Because they will not have a sufficient source of income for development. More details.
