Cardano (ADA) was added as a USD trading pair to the Binance. The coin can also be traded for NEO, QTUM, ETH, BTC, BNB, BCC and LTC.

Populous (PPT) has been climbing to huge 30% to 50% growths in the passed 24 hours. The coin does not get much attention but offers the unique service of Invoice Finance through smart contracts on the Ethereum Blockchain.

Austin Considers Blockchain to Help the Homeless

Austin Texas is proposing the use of blockchain technology to create digital identities for the homeless population. By linking their existing, physical documents to data on a blockchain, law enforcement can more efficiently handle issues within their homeless population. The individuals would not have to worry about maintaining the physical paperwork anymore.


First Decentralized Exchange on NEO Blockchain 

Switcheo (SWH) has officially gone live. This is the first exchange of its kind to be operational on the NEO blockchain. There are many decentralized exchanges in the works. These allow users to maintain control of their cryptocurrencies, rather than depositing them to the private wallets created an exchange. This makes for direct transfers without a middleman. These are harder to make function as fast or smoothly at this time, but the inherent value of keeping possession of their wealth is worth the hassle to many traders.
