Japanese regulator allows 11 companies to conduct cryptocurrency exchange activities

The Japanese Financial Services Agency (FSA) has approved 11 companies as cryptocurrency exchange operators. Writes about it Reuters.

In April, the Japanese government recognized bitcoin as legal tender and required all cryptocurrency exchange operators to be officially registered..

The regulator presented a number of requirements for such operators, which included the creation of a reliable computer network, the isolation of customer accounts and the identification of customer identities..

Trading volumes in Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies in Japan have increased significantly this year, helped by the creation of an appropriate regulatory framework. Tokyo intends to strike a balance between investor protection measures and measures to support fintech innovation in the country with new rules, an FSA official said..

Officials said this month that they are not going to ban ICOs, although such proposals appear from time to time..

Thus, Japan's policy in this area differs markedly from the policy of its neighbors, China and South Korea, where IPO campaigns were banned..

US authorities indict two suspects for hacking DEX EtherDelta

Elliot Gunton and Anthony Tyler Nashatka are charged with hacking into the non-custodial Ethereum exchange EtherDelta in December 2017..

According to the text of the indictment, Gunton and Nashatka changed the settings of the EtherDelta domain name system in order to mislead users with the aim of "collecting their cryptocurrency addresses, private keys and withdrawing funds contained in these cryptocurrency addresses".

The attackers managed to gain access to the settings using the phone number of one of EtherDelta's employees, which was then used to hack his email. After that, they made changes to the parameters of the domain system in such a way as to redirect traffic from EtherDelta to a "fake website that resembled the real EtherDelta platform.".

Visitors to a fake website, without knowing it, could disclose private keys to their wallets to hackers, and with this, lose the cryptocurrency assets that were on them.

According to the prosecution, the losses of only one EtherDelta user from the actions of Gunton and Nashatka amounted to at least $ 800,000. The total amount of damage was not disclosed..

The MetaMask extension adds the ability to directly exchange Ethereum tokens

The developers of the MetaMask extension for working with the Ethereum blockchain have added token exchange capabilities in their interface.

According to the Ethereum studio ConsenSys, which owns MetaMask, the service will turn to decentralized exchanges and aggregators to exchange tokens. This is expected to provide the most beneficial rate for users..

Uniswap, Airswap, Kyber, 0x API, 1inch.exchange, dex.ag, Paraswap, Totle are initially supported. Independent market makers will also be involved. Before that, users had to specially go to the website of the exchange or aggregator, connect the wallet and exchange through their interfaces.

The latest innovation aims to improve the user experience by automating one of the most requested features. Compared to an independent exchange, swaps through MetaMask have one drawback - the service will charge an additional commission from 0.3% to 0.875% depending on the size of the order.

At the first stage, the implementation of swaps is provided only for the extension in the Firefox browser. Subsequently, support for other browsers and the MetaMask mobile application will appear.

Previously, MetaMask developers reported that their client base exceeded 1 million monthly active users..

Tether Launches USDT Stablecoin on Solana Blockchain

Tether has launched its USDT stablecoin on the Solana blockchain, writes The Block.

According to Tether, Solana will help users exchange USDT at speeds in excess of 50,000 transactions per second, while processing fees in its system usually do not exceed $ 0.00001.

Solana Foundation President Anatoly Yakovenko said the integration of Tether was "absolutely necessary", noting the role of stablecoin in the DeFi space and the wider cryptocurrency community.

“The Solana blockchain was originally designed to support thousands of transactions at Nasdaq speeds. Today, with the support of Tether, Solana can finally make that dream come true, ”he added..

Tether plans to continue expanding support for new blockchains, but has yet to reveal their names. Tether CTO Paolo Ardoino said there are three such integrations currently underway.

SOL has climbed 42% in the last hour, partly regaining its recent decline from all-time highs.

The Ninth Arbitration Court of Appeal allowed the inclusion of cryptocurrency in the bankruptcy estate of an individual declared bankrupt. Thus, the court indirectly admits that cryptocurrency is property and has value, Vedomosti writes with reference to the explanation of financial manager Alexei Leonov.

By court decision, Leonov will be given the password from the cryptocurrency wallet of Ilya Tsarkov, which was declared bankrupt in October 2017. Tsarkov's debt to Slavinvestbank is 18.9 million rubles.

On February 26, the court of first instance refused to include cryptocurrency in the bankruptcy estate, arguing that such a concept is not enshrined in the Civil Code, and the legal regime for this process is not defined in any legal document.

According to Tsarkov's representatives, there is an amount of 0.2 BTC on his wallet. The further procedure for the sale of the cryptocurrency received by Leonov will also be determined by the court.

Tsarkov insists that cryptocurrency cannot be qualified as property, since it does not belong to the material world and is not recognized by law. Earlier, representatives of the bankrupt said that he himself informed the financial manager about the fact that he had cryptocurrency..
