Portal Network is connecting and enhancing existing blockchain technologies.

Can't see images? Click here... Hi there, Portal Network was recently at the ETC Summit last September to talk about their Blockchain Name Service standard that turns cryptic blockchain addresses (ex. 0xfa91d23…) into simple human-readable addresses (ex. myname.etc). On ETC this is irreversible, meaning that only you have control of your Blockchain Name. Portal Network solves the problem of user adoption, complexity, human error and lack of interoperability by deploying the Blockchain Name Service standard across multiple blockchain protocols.

Cryptocurrency scammers have taken to Facebook. Earlier this month, Facebook users noticed that Bitmain, the large bitcoin mining company, began posting comments in random posts. The posts called for some sort of "partnership" tied to bitcoin and requested a currency transfer. Of course, the post was not from Bitmain, but from scammers trying to take advantage of Facebook users. –THE VERGE       2. Tether is reportedly fully backed with dollar reserves. New bank statements show that Tether's operators have $2.2 billion in the bank, enough to cover the number of coins in circulation. There had been speculation for months that the coin did not have the cash to fully back the coins it had issued. The latest statements show that Tether had the funds in Puerto Rico's Noble Bank at the beginning of this year. –BITCOINIST       Meet the Owl featured in This Week in Startups 2018 Year in Review No one has time for awful meetings!

There are only 328,400 active accounts as of Sunday. –COIN TELEGRAPH       4. Coinbase has launched a new feature that allows customers to directly exchange cryptocurrencies for one another.
