1. Bitcoin is trading around $10,300 today, but according to a gold analyst, the number one cryptocurrency could see a "sharp setback" to $7,000. In an analysis published today, Florian Grummes noted that if the June high of nearly $14,000 is passed, then $15,000, and the all-time high of $20,000 "may be achievable this year." However, he did add that if the sell-signal breaks down then a "sharp setback" in the direction of $7,000-$8,000 could also be expected. –SEEKING ALPHA

     

2. Cryptocurrency-related crimes caused $2.3 billion of financial damage between July 2017 and June 2019, according to the South Korean Justice Ministry. Over that period, the ministry states that 132 criminals have been indicted and detained, with another 288 charged without being physically held. Industry data suggests that while the crypto frenzy has died off in South Korea, a lack of regulations saw the number of exchanges rise to 205 in May. In March, Bithumb, a crypto exchange in South Korea, lost nearly $20 million in EOS and XRP currencies in a hack making it the third time in two years. –THE KOREA HERALD
