Jiang Zhuoer published an article analyzing the mysterious Virgo with 616,000 BTC + 750,000 BCH

Jiang Zhuoer analyzed the mysterious Virgo hoarding coins of 616,000 BTC + 750,000 BCH: 1. It does not look like an exchange sorting coins, because the cold wallet addresses of most exchanges are in the top few of the rich list, Generally 50,000-100,000 coins. Before bankruptcy, Mt.Gox accounted for 70% of the global Bitcoin trading volume. According to the data after bankruptcy, only hundreds of thousands of coins were deposited. Currently, there should be no exchange with 616,000 coins; 2. One of the source addresses is 1EBHA1ckUWzNKN7BMfDwGTx6GKEbADUozX, one of the 9 addresses I call "Big Leek"; (Before the bear market bottomed out); 4. In January 2016, after Bitcoin re-entered the bull market, 7 of the 9 addresses of the "leek boss" were removed one after another, and the removal process was split into 20 and 50 , After 100 coins, break it into zero. The coins of the remaining 2 addresses have not moved yet. Part of Virgo’s coins come from 1EBHA1ckUWzNKN7BMfDwGTx6GKEbADUozX in address 9, so it can be speculated that Virgo is likely to buy coins.

Brazilian mining company refuses to repay investment funds, suspected of being a Ponzi scheme

Brazilian mining company Minerworld, which claims it doesn't have enough bitcoin to pay back investors' pledged funds to the company, is now accused of being a Ponzi scheme. Minerworld previously claimed that they lost 851 bitcoins in October 2017 due to a phishing attack on the Poloniex exchange, but according to media reports, the Poloniex exchange has not released any statement about the theft. The court ordered the company to use the remaining funds to repay investors, but was told it could not, as the remaining funds were needed to maintain operations and terminate contracts with service providers. Authorities also became suspicious of the company because of its promise of high returns on investment.

Cryptocurrencies May Gain Regulatory Certainty in South Africa's Payments System Review

The Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA) today issued a warning against an unauthorized broker called Originalcrypto, which was previously flagged by the Italian regulator (CONSOB). The broker, which operates SolutionsCM Ltd through the website www.originalcrypto.com, operates cryptocurrency services and solicits clients to trade on its platform. While it doesn't mention on its website whether it holds a MFSA license, the MFSA warning could mean the company is soliciting customer deals without a license.
