​​Mitsubishi, Banking & Telecom Giants Invest USD 62M in DeCurret.

The Japanese crypto exchange DeCurret has received a major boost with leading banks, conglomerates such as Mitsubishi and others participating in USD 62 million funding round for the fast-growing platform.

The Tokyo-based company will use the money to create a new “digital currency” platform and a smartphone, reported Nikkei and TechCrunch Japan.

The package will also see Toshihide Endo, the former head of the country’s top financial and crypto regulator, the Financial Services Agency (FSA), join the company as a special advisor from April. Endo served as the FSA commissioner from 2018 to 2020, during which time the FSA completely revamped its crypto policies in the wake of the devastating Coincheck hack of early 2018.

Endo also serves as an advisor to Sony and Fukoku Mutual Life Insurance.

The funding involved a third-party share allotment deal that was underwritten by its biggest shareholder, the internet service provider Internet Initiative Japan, which provided 30% of the funding.

Joining was a veritable who’s-who of high-level Japanese businesses, including the telecoms giants KDDI and the Nippon Telegraph and Telephone (NTT), as well as the banks Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, Mitsubishi UFJ Bank and the Japan Post Bank. The security firms Sohgo Security Services (ALSOK) and Secom also took part, as did the monolithic Mitsubishi Corporation. Another investor was SBI Holdings, the SBI Group’s holding company, and the operator of two rival crypto exchanges.

DeCurret did not reveal how much each company had invested, not how many shares had been allotted in each case.

The company did not go into details about its smartphone plans, but explained that it would seek to construct a “two-layer structure digital currency platform” that enables makes use of blockchain technology to create “privately issued digital currencies” and “implement “company-specific smart contracts.”

DeCurret last year formed a new “study group” including many of its new investors, with the group hopeful of creating a platform that the entire Japanese business community will be able to use for digital payments.

​​Trezor's Plans, Spain's Crypto Tax Warning, Thai SEC & Binance.

Wallet news
Trezor announced four things set to come out this year: Trezor Suite Mobile app for Android, Bitcoin Full Node, CoinControl, and Child Pays For Parent (CPFP), as well as CoinJoin. The anonymization method for bitcoin transactions CoinJoin will obscure the sources and destinations of users' transactions, they said, claiming that the combination of Tor Switch, CoinControl, and CoinJoin "will guarantee you the top level of privacy and security."

Tax news
The Spanish Tax Agency, known locally as the Hacienda, has issued an unprecedented 14,800 warning letters to Spaniards it suspects may fail to or have already failed to declare their crypto earnings in mandatory tax filings. Per Telemadrid, the letters sought to inform recipients that they did not need to declare any crypto purchases, but reminded them that capital gains tax payments were due on profitable sales. Failure to comply, the agency added, could result in fines of “over USD 6,000.”

Exchanges news
The Thai Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued a warning to the country's investors stating that Binance is not a licensed digital asset operator in this country. Therefore, its users will not be protected by Thailand's law. The regulator sent a letter to the major exchange and to "the relevant parties to clarify the information" about the company. When contacted by Cryptonews, Binance refused to comment on the topic, stating that they "don't disclose our conversations with regulators."

CBDC news
A group of the world’s seven major central banks (including the US Federal Reserve and the European Central Bank) has scope to set common rules and platforms for their own digital currencies that could lay the groundwork for more efficient cross-border payments, said Kazushige Kamiyama, head of the Bank of Japan (BOJ)’s department overseeing the development of a central bank digital currency (CBDC). Per Reuters, as the role a CBDC plays differs for advanced nations with a robust banking system and emerging economies that can use CBDCs to make up for shortfalls in their financial infrastructure, said Kamiyama, it's "better to come up with common rules among countries with similar economic structures."

DeFi news
Coinbase joined the DeFi Alliance, an open association that provides mentorship and funding for early stage tech teams working in the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector, they said. The DeFi Alliance has more than 60 member companies. They recently announced their first fund, DeFi Alliance Fund I, seeded by Alliance members and led by the founding partners along with billionaire entrepreneur Mark Cuban.

​​Thodex Users File Complaints Alleging Fraud as CEO Flees the Country.

Turkish crypto traders have reportedly filed thousands of criminal complaints against local crypto exchange Thodex alleging fraud, while its head had reportedly fled the country.

The lawyer representing the users said that the complaints were filed after the users were unable to access their accounts or withdraw their money, reported Reuters.

Lawyer Oguz Evren Kilic said he was contacted by users on Wednesday who filed a criminal complaint on behalf of several people in Ankara, while thousands of others had also filed complaints across the country.

“It is not clear where this is headed," he told Reuters. "There have been thousands of criminal complaints made in many places around Turkey,” adding that the platform had 400,000 users, 391,000 of whom were active. “We will file a case with the consumer court right away. The two processes - criminal complaints and the case - will run simultaneously,” Kilic said.

Per Bloomberg, the lawyer claimed that with this number of active users, assets that remain “irretrievable” may be worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

The trading volume on Thodex was USD 744.9m on April 21, down from 1.39bn recorded five days prior, according to CoinGecko.

The lawyer also said that a preliminary assessment by police showed Thodex CEO Faruk Fatih Ozer had flown out of the country on Tuesday, with the users worried that he took with him the money meant for trading on the platform. Ozer was reportedly seen in Albania.

As reported, Thodex abruptly halted trading on Wednesday citing an unspecified partnership transaction, spurring complaints from users who can’t access their digital assets. Services are said to be shut for approximately five working days while the share transfer is completed, but the exchange said that users needn’t worry about their investments.

An Istanbul prosecutor’s office said it has launched an investigation into the company due to claims that it had led to the “aggrievement of many citizens,” per Reuters.

The Turkish government should take action as soon as possible, Cemil Ertem, senior economic adviser to President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, told Bloomberg. “Pyramid schemes are being established in this area. Turkey will undoubtedly carry out a regulation that’s in line with its economy but also by following global developments.”

But Kilic is quoted as saying that “we said in meetings with various government authorities that a digital asset law should be made and legal regulations should be created. You cannot do anything with bans in this age.”

Last week, Turkey banned the use of crypto assets for payments, claiming that tokens entail significant risks due to volatile market values, irrevocable transactions and can be used to fund illicit behavior.

​​Ethereum Won't Hide From Quantum Computers Behind PoS Shield.

Quantum computing has long been regarded as Bitcoin (BTC)’s ‘bogeyman.’ The popular fear is that, as secure as Bitcoin and other proof-of-work cryptoassets are in terms of standard cryptography, quantum computers could provide additional means of breaking them.

One other popular assumption is that, because they don’t use PoW, proof-of-stake cryptoassets such as Cardano (ADA), Polkadot (DOT), and Tron (TRX) (and eventually, Ethereum (ETH)) aren’t as vulnerable to quantum computing attacks as networks like Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Litecoin (LTC). However, according to a variety of computer scientists and crypto experts, it’s not the consensus mechanism of a coin which creates the biggest risk in terms of quantum computers, but rather the signature system.

In other words, given that the vast majority of PoS cryptoassets also use (non-quantum) cryptographic signature systems to sign individual transactions, they’re nearly as vulnerable to quantum hacks as their PoW rivals. That said, the advent of sufficiently powerful quantum computers is still some way off, while their emergence is likely to incentivize a widespread shift to post-quantum cryptography.

It’s the first mechanism that affects PoW more than PoS, with Bitcoin and other proof-of-work coins theoretically vulnerable to a quantum computer-driven 51% attack.

That said, Marek Narożniak — a physics PhD student at New York University who has worked with Prof. Tim Byrne on research into quantum computing — explains that talk of a 51% attack perpetrated by quantum computers still remains theoretical.

“If someone has a sufficiently large quantum computer and wishes to perform a 51% attack — consisting of outperforming remaining miners and producing invalid blocks — it would have to be a really massive quantum machine. The reason for that is that Bitcoin's proof-of-work is based on a hashing function for which there is no known efficient quantum algorithm that can reverse it,”.

But while Bitcoin’s weakness compared to PoS cryptoassets is still pretty hypothetical, quantum computing poses another threat that concerns PoS and PoW in equal measure.

“Even if consensus requires no cryptographic ‘work’ in the case of PoS it still does rely on cryptography which is currently mainly based on elliptic curves which are vulnerable to quantum algorithms. An attacker with sufficiently powerful quantum computers could break other validators signatures and still mess with the consensus,” said Narożniak.

This is a concern echoed by other commentators. In an analysis published by Deloitte, Bram Bosch wrote that around four million bitcoins are stored in addresses that use p2pk and p2pkh scripting, which is vulnerable to attacks via quantum computers.

​​Someone Paid USD 1.7M In Litecoin For Tom Brady Football Card.

In what is called one of the largest "hard asset" transactions to be paid entirely in cryptocurrency, an unknown buyer purchased an autographed Tom Brady football card for about USD 1.68m worth of litecoin (LTC) at an auction hosted by Goldin Auctions.

The auction house says this marks the most expensive item to be paid in crypto since the company began to accept this form of payment last month.

“The hobby is undergoing incredible growth unlike anything I have seen in my 40+ years in the industry,” Ken Goldin, Founder of Goldin Auctions, told Sports Collectors Daily.

“What’s amazing to see is that the same thing is playing out with crypto. Trading cards and crypto are now two of the most rapidly growing alternative asset classes and we know there is a lot of overlap between the communities. We believe this may be one of the most expensive hard assets ever paid for in crypto,” he was quoted as saying.

Tyler Winklevoss, CEO and co-founder of Gemini, said that the 2000 Playoff Contenders card featuring Tom Brady, who was at that time a rookie drafted by the New England Patriots where he would spend a total of 20 seasons, was sold in partnership with his crypto exchange.

The card is “known as the "Holy Grail" of the collecting industry,” Winklevoss said.

This said, the item is not the most expensive card of this type to be bought at an auction. Earlier this month, a similar card autographed by the American athlete was sold for more than USD 2.25m at an auction hosted by Lelands Auctions. Both cards had a card grade of 8.5 out of 10, but the card auctioned by Lelands had a slightly lower autograph grade of 9 out of 10, compared with 10 out of 10 for the card purchased with litecoin.

At 09:58 UTC, LTC, ranked 10th by market capitalization, trades at USD 258 and is up by 2% in a day. The price is down by almost 1% in a week, trimming its monthly gains to 33%.

​​Are Wall Street Giants Playing the 'Make-Bitcoin-Cheaper' Game Again?

It seems that the Wall Street actors may be playing the same game seen in January - bashing bitcoin (BTC) when it looks relatively weak, while and/or before doing their own BTC-related move. We saw this from JPMorgan and Guggenheim Partners earlier, and now it's Goldman Sachs.

This week, US-based investment giant Goldman Sachs said that the competition from other cryptoassets, energy use, and lack of use cases are among the concerns surrounding bitcoin's long-term store of value demand.

It is too early for bitcoin to compete with gold for safe-haven demand, said the bank, but the two can co-exist, as Reuters reported. It added that the extensive energy use made it vulnerable to losing its store of value demand to a "better-designed" contender.

"While Bitcoin benefits from greater liquidity, it suffers from lack of real use and weak environmental, social, governance (ESG) scoring, due to its high energy consumption," the banks is quoted as saying. "The only way this record-sized and fast approaching supply crunch can be solved is via a surge in price to new record highs."

Furthermore, in the same note, Jeffrey Currie, Goldman's head of commodities research, said, per Kitco, that BTC "gave ground to other cryptocurrencies such as ether and altcoins. This, in our view, underscores the fact that competition among cryptocurrencies for the status of dominant long-term store of value is still on and adds an additional source of risk to holding bitcoin."

Just a month ago, it was reported that Goldman Sachs aims to offer its first investment vehicles for bitcoin and other unspecified digital assets to clients of its private wealth management group in the second quarter of this year. Some of the clients were reportedly considering BTC to be a hedge against inflation.

The bank also offers a crypto trading desk and is dealing BTC futures and non-deliverable forwards for their clients.

Furthermore, earlier in March, Goldman said it saw rising demand for BTC not only among institutional investors, but also in the private wealth management industry.

The company has delivered several relatively favorable views on crypto over the years. In late November 2017, Currie said that BTC was a commodity with many similarities to gold, and that the volatility that concerned investors stemmed mainly from its lack of liquidity. "I don’t see why there is all this hostility to it," Currie told Bloomberg back then. BTC is "not much different than gold." He added though that the "real innovation" is in the ledger, not in BTC itself.

In January this year, Currie stated that bitcoin was showing signs of maturity, but that the level of institutional investment in it was still very small - more is needed for it to stabilize. BTC had a market value of above USD 600bn at the time and over USD 1trn today. "That can give you some long-run equilibrium," Currie told CNBC. But the level of volatility and uncertainty in the market "makes it very difficult to forecast it."

​​NYDFS taps former DOJ attorney as deputy virtual currency chief.

The former Department of Justice trial attorney has been with the New York State Department of Financial Services for eight years.

Debra Brookes’ new role with the New York State Department of Financial Services may suggest more of a focus on regulation through enforcement.

An attorney who has been working at New York’s Department of Financial Services, or NYDFS, since 2013, Brookes has served in key roles in the department’s Enforcement Division, Financial Frauds and Consumer Protection Division, and Consumer Protection and Financial Enforcement Division before becoming deputy virtual currency chief for its Research and Innovation Division in March. Prior to that, she worked as a trial attorney with the U.S. Department of Justice for five years, leading and participating in “complex white-collar investigations.”

Though the former DOJ attorney’s views on crypto have not been widely reported, she did contribute to a NYDFS report over the July 2020 hack on Twitter, which resulted in many high-profile accounts sending tweets fraudulently promising followers that they would double Bitcoin (BTC) payments sent to a specific address. That report concluded that “cryptocurrency companies had robust programs around cybersecurity, fraud-prevention, and anti-money laundering programs.”

With regulatory authority over many crypto exchanges and firms, the NYDFS has approved Goldman Sachs-backed crypto custodian BitGo to operate as an independent custodian in New York. The regulator has also granted BitLicenses — virtual currency licenses which allow firms to do business with customers and companies based in the state — to both global crypto payments processor BitPay and institutional cryptocurrency exchange Bakkt.

Brookes works under Jon Blattmachr, who has been the NYDFS' virtual currency chief since October 2020.

​​'Crypto regulatory crackdown is starting' but it’ll be OK, says Avanti CEO.

Caitlin Long has stated she is optimistic about the crypto regulations that are taking shape in the United States as the focus is on taxation and compliance.

'Crypto regulatory crackdown is starting' but it’ll be OK, says Avanti CEO.

The founder and CEO of Avanti Financial, Caitlin Long says the “U.S. crypto regulatory crackdown” has begun, but emphasized it’s not a “Bitcoin ban.”

She said she was optimistic that the forthcoming regulations would simply bring crypto laws into line with standard financial rules around taxes and compliance.

There has been a renewed focus on regulations in recent weeks, with the brutal crypto market crash leaving left Washington fumbling for a response.

Avanti's CEO provided a chronology of nine news stories, public statements and announcements covering the IRS, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, FinCen, and the Secretary of the Treasury, among others, from May 5 to May 21, concluding the new regulations comprise a "compliance crackdown."

“It may not yet be over, but the pattern is pretty clear: it's a compliance crackdown for sure, but path for ‘responsible innovation’ in US does seem to remain open.”

Long highlighted a May 20 Department of the Treasury report that called for exchanges and custodians to report crypto transactions larger than $10,000.

“Leveraging this information — rather than introducing new requirements for taxpayers — is a proven way to improve compliance,” the report read.

Long also pointed out the Federal Reserve is taking aim at the stablecoin industry as well with the Fed chair Jerome Powell putting out a statement yesterday.

“As stablecoins’ use increases, so must our attention to the appropriate regulatory and oversight framework,” he said. He then remarked:

“This includes paying attention to private-sector payments innovators who are currently not within the traditional regulatory arrangements applied to banks, investment firms, and other financial intermediaries.”

Long characterized this as a “warning shot” saying that its “consistent w/ the theme-comply w/ laws & don't take shortcuts (i.e., get fully regulated as a bank & pay the full regulatory freight).”

In the statement Powell also revealed that the governing body is moving ahead with plans to research how to implement a U.S. central bank currency, or CBDC. The Fed chair noted the “key focus is on whether and how a CBDC could improve on an already safe, effective, dynamic, and efficient U.S. domestic payments system.”
