Bitcoin and Ethereum are in retreat following a flash crash. Binance U.S. was hit with a bug Thursday, resulting in a flash crash that saw Bitcoin’s price plummet by around 90%. Ethereum also dipped 50% on the exchange.
While the platform has started accepting account registrations and deposits/withdrawals of cryptocurrencies, its services do not yet cover the entirety of the US market, as the following states have been excluded from its support as of the time of writing the review (September 19, 2019):
Of course, in order to diversify, a customer needs to be able to trade a wide variety of altcoins. When it comes to cryptocurrency listings, Binance is the undisputed king. But how does Binance.US measure up?
Ethereum Classic is a cryptocurrency that has legitimate functions. With decentralised applications on the Ethereum Classic network, one can use bridges to move cryptos to other chains, spend cryptos in real-world instances and authenticate transactions with ease and efficiency.
ANNALS OF CAMPAIGN FINANCE: “Alek Skarlatos, a hero soldier-turned-Republican congressional candidate, started a nonprofit shortly after his 2020 defeat in a western Oregon race, pledging to advocate for veterans ‘left high and dry’ by the country ‘they put their lives on the line for.’” But, The Associated Press’ Brian Slodysko reports, “the group, which Skarlatos seeded with $93,000 in leftover campaign funds, has done little since then to advance that cause.”

The growth of SafeMoon, coupled with its online slogan, has drawn comparisons to the surge in popularity of another cryptocurrency Dogecoin.
If you already have a wallet on the Binance Smart Chain, getting Safemoon is as simple as exchanging it for any other token in your wallet on a decentralized exchange (DEX) such as PancakeSwap.
And while proponents tout cryptocurrencies as potentially lucrative alternative investments, few serious financial professionals view most coins — with the important exception of Bitcoin and a few others — as suitable for anything other than pure speculation.
OK perhaps that’s a little far-fetched. But what is behind crypto’s crazy climb over the past 18 months, we hear you ask? We don’t mean to suggest that the pandemic hasn’t been involved, because we think it has, but not in the way that this chart criminal implies — not, in other words, because it’s some kind of safe haven that traders flock to when they are worried about Covid cases rising; the data don’t bear that idea out.
When some of the most respected people on Wall Street make comments like that, it “takes a huge element of mainstream out of the market,” says Innes. Essentially, these heavy hitters were telling their minions that bitcoin wasn’t worth their time.
With cryptocurrencies often moving in tandem with Bitcoin, Ethereum was trading up nearly 11% on the last seven days after hitting a new record high of almost $5,000 on Tuesday morning.
SafeMoon listed three reasons why the V2 upgrade is expected to boost the demand for the token in a recent tweet:
Then 5% goes to buying back and burning tokens to reduce circulation and increase demand for the token. The buyback and burning process is automated. With every transaction, 5% of the 12% fee goes to the Buyback smart contract, which automatically buys tokens from the liquidity pool and burns them. Therefore, Safemoon members would also want to invest in a coin whose supply is diminishing hence a consistent increase in the price of the coin.
