United States-based cryptocurrency exchange and wallet service provider Coinbase has added support for ₿itcoin Cash (BCH) to its Coinbase Wallet, according to an announcement published on Feb. 19.

The update states that users can now store ₿itcoin Cash on Coinbase Wallet, adding:

“The new Wallet update with ₿itcoin Cash support will roll out to all users on iOS and Android over the next few weeks.”

As Cointelegraph wrote in August 2018, Coinbase Wallet was introduced as a rebranding of the firm’s open source decentralized app (DApp) browser and wallet, formerly called Toshi.

The rebranded wallet has several different features from the main app, Coinbase (or Coinbase.com), reportedly aimed at providing more transparency and security. Coinbase Wallet allows users to store their own private keys on their devices, buy and store crypto-collectibles, use third-party DApps and receive airdrops and tokens from initial coin offerings.

Earlier this month, Coinbase added support for ₿itcoin (BTC) to its Wallet app.  

Last week, the firm announced that Coinbase Wallet users can now back up their private keys on cloud storage, namely on Google Drive and iCloud, leading to mixed reactions from the crypto community.

Earlier this week, third-largest cryptocurrency exchange OKEx announced that it had added four new crypto derivative pairs to its platform, namely ₿itcoin SV (BSV), Qtum (QTUM), Dash (DASH) and Neo (NEO) against ₿itcoin or Tether (USDT).

Scaling Bitcoin Releases This Year’s Program and a New Developer Bootcamp

Scaling Bitcoin Just Released This Year’s Program and a New Developer Bootcamp

Today, Scaling Bitcoin, the international engineering conference focused on bitcoin and blockchain research, released its program for the 2017 edition. The conference, to be held in Stanford, California, in the first weekend of November, will also introduce a new side event this year: Bitcoin Edge, a bootcamp for starting bitcoin developers.

“The program is extremely interesting because it delivers cutting edge research on different blockchain scalability approaches, fungibility, consensus, data propagation, alternative techniques for handling blockchains and many other topics,” said Anton Yemelyanov, chair of the Scaling bitcoin Planning Committee.

After events in Montreal, Hong Kong and Milan, the fourth edition of the Scaling bitcoin conference is taking place at Stanford University on November 4 and 5 of this year.

Where the first two editions of Scaling bitcoin were mainly focused on scaling and scalability, the third edition broadened the scope of the conference to include a more diverse set of topics. This trend will continue in Stanford, where talks will range from highly technical topics concerning privacy and fungibility, to fee markets and fee estimation, censorship resistance and more.

bitcoin is the origin of all distributed ledger technology,” said Yemelyanov. “Scaling bitcoin has been fortunate to act as a vehicle for bringing the audience technologies such as Segregated Witness and MimbleWimble, all of which have been adopted or incorporated into various blockchain projects. We hope that other material presented by our participants will be of similar value and help the industry advance the research and development of blockchains.”

Yemelyanov added that another key goal for Scaling bitcoin conferences is to bring engineers and other technical minds together in a physical space where they can discuss their work in person.

“It is through collaboration where a lot of ideas are born and have potential of becoming reality,” he said.

In addition to the conference itself, Scaling bitcoin is also introducing a two-day technical bootcamp for experienced developers getting into bitcoin: bitcoin Edge.

This nonprofit initiative is an effort to help scale the development capacity of the industry, Yemelyanov explained:

“One of the approaches of helping the industry scale is to scale the much needed development capacity of the industry. There is a clear talent deficit and we are trying to help all industry participants by running a nonprofit workshop that will allow developers to gain complete understanding of primitives that comprise bitcoin and blockchains in general and be able to start working in this field.”

bitcoin Edge will be led by well-known bitcoin developers and academics Anditto Heristyo, Ethan Heilman, John Newbery, Karl-Johan Alm, Nicolas Dorier, Thaddeus Dryja and Jimmy Song. They’ll introduce participants to a range of technical bitcoin-related topics, including Elliptic Curve cryptography, transaction structures, difficulty calculation and adjustments, and much more.

This workshop will take place on the November 2 and 3. For more information on the bitcoin Edge initiative, visit bitcoinedge.org.
