The trailer for the upcoming Lionsgate movie "Crypto" hit YouTube on Tuesday and it is amazing. The movie follows a Wall Street genius with a heart of gold who learns the company he works for is in bed with the Russian Mafia to use cryptocurrency to launder money. The movies stars Kurt Russell and, as Bitcoinist explains so well, "an ex-Gilmore Girl, the least famous Hemsworth brother, and someone called Beau (not Bridges)." It is obviously a Hollywood-ized view of cryptocurrency that those that follow the market will find hilarious (at one point, our hero finds a folder on a computer labeled "KICKBACKS.") Anyway, all I can say is STOP WHAT YO ARE DOING AND GO WATCH IT. –BITCOINIST       2. Ripple will work with Forte to invest $100 million in game developers who make games based on blockchain technology. Forte officially launched last month and has to announce its own fundraising but it does have money from Andreessen Horowitz. Ripple will provide all of the $100 million and the fund will operate alongside Forte's platform technologies and include open-source solutions designed in collaboration between the two. The goal is to accelerate the mainstream adoption of blockchain technology in gaming. –VENTURE BEAT       Ad Hiring moves fast—stay ahead of the game with Vettery's 2019 Tech Salary Report As a tech leader, you're used to a day-to-day in flux.

Ethereum mining pool Sparkpool will split the costs with a user that accidentally sent more than $300,000 in mining fees a few weeks back. The user sent the funds on Feb. 19, apparently confusing the fields required to send coins. While the exact circumstances remain unknown, Sparkpool agreed to refund half of the 2,100 ETH mining fee. The idea to split the fees came from the user, who thanked the pool's developers for assistance in recovering the funds. –COIN TELEGRAPH       4. Abra, recognized as the world's first global investment app, added support for ETH. The platform currently listed ethereum as a synthetic asset, meaning users were able to gain exposure to the price movements of the coin but could not deposit or withdrawal ethereum into their account. By adding support, customers can now deposit and withdraw through any other ethereum wallet. –CRYPTO POTATO       Ad Get Access To The Boss Cryptocurrency Trading Course - For FREE In This Free Course You Will Learn: - The exact trading strategy we used to win in 2018 - How to stop the seemingly endless cycle of losing money, forever - How to do it all trading less than 4 hours per week This course is 100% free for this week only.
