COIN BULLETIN
Tether Attacked, $30 Million Dollars Worth Of Tokens Taken
Yesterday Tether released an announcement letting us know that $30,950,010 USDT was removed from their Tether treasury wallet through malicious action by an external attacker (aka, they got hacked).
It looks like only 1 Tether private key was compromised so Tether is still as safe/not-safe to use at it was prior to this announcement.
Oh check this out, best part of the announcement:
So... they will be treated exactly the same as non-stolen tether tokens? (Source: solar128)
Anyways, that's enough of Tether talk for today. If you're interested, check out yesterdays stream about Bitfinex and Tether with Tone Vays, Jimmy Song, Flibbr, and Bitfinixed.
Oh, and you can read the Tether announcement here.
CME Says Bitcoin Futures Coming This Year, But Date Not Set
Previously we've heard that the CME Group bitcoin futures contract would begin trading on Dec. 11, but apparently that date was posted in error.
CME Group said on Monday it still plans to launch a futures contract for bitcoin this year, we just don't know when (2spooky).
Russian Minister: We Will ‘Never’ Consider Bitcoin Legal
The head of Russia’s Ministry of Communications (Minkomsvyaz) has said the country will “never” legalize Bitcoin within its economy.
I've asked this before, can someone explain to me why Russian is so bipolar on cryptocurrency? One day they're adopting it with open arms, and the next indicating they're planning an outright ban.
