RusGas Project: Blockchain Platform Aimed at Transforming the Gas Industry

Today, the number of various blockchain projects is constantly growing opening new opportunities for enhancing all the spheres of our life. But with the growth of the number of such projects it becomes more and more difficult to introduce an idea that will be bound to succeed. RusGas project is one of those ideas that worth to be mentioned among the most promising ones.

RusGas is a start-up that is aimed at transforming the gas industry through funding and implementation of researches in the sphere of natural gas production, its processing, storage, and transportation.

While the majority of energy projects are dealing with the renewable hydro and solar energy sectors, RusGas is to be implemented in an absolutely specific sector. The key focus is made on scientific developments in the infrastructure of small and medium-sized fields in Eastern Siberia.

The authors of the project have paid their attention to the fact that gasification of concrete zones of the region is a more realistic idea than any efforts to utilize renewable energy sources there. As we can see, RusGas team does not striving to inspire investors to join the project exclusively based of modern trends in the industry.

Moreover, RusGas is going to be engaged in “assets tokenization” in the full sense of this word combination. Investors’ tokens will be guaranteed with real assets. As investments are expected to be made on the base of real materials and technical resources.

A lot of projects offer its investors immediate sale of energy savings in local markets, even including some variants of speculative trading. RusGas  project is focused on much deeper issues. The tokens holders will have an opportunity to choose different directions for their investments, among possible directions are financing of a specific gas volume extraction or financing of the entire chain from the deposit to the sale of polymers.

RusGas team will also include a strong trade and consulting department like major banks and investment companies usually have. These professionals will help investors to opt for the most appropriate strategy taking into consideration their capacities, interests and expectations.

Thanks to the specificity of the projects and its result-oriented ideas, the team expects institutional investors to join the project. Their participation is extremely important for the success of such a large-scale project in the gas industry. Application of new working mechanisms can be possible only with ready elements of the future infrastructure that represent the interest for institutional investors.

One more reason why RusGas project team hopes to succeed is that they have chosen a good time for their ICO (at the moment pre-ICO round is alive) when all the consequences of the autumn-winter volatile period have already gone away, and investors can be sure that a new crypto currency is likely  to survive and stay afloat.

Without any doubts, it is obvious that the financial aspect is the most important one for investors.  That’s why RusGas has developed a way for investors to earn on the implementation of scientific solutions for cleaning gas energy which will help to reduce gas volumes ineffectively burnt in torches.

Taking in consideration all the above-mentioned competitive advantages of the project, it is said that RusGas has significant chances to achieve its goal to raise 60 million USD during its ICO, though the sum of 25-30 million USD seems to be more realistic to collect.

Japan Revises Registration Rules for Cryptocurrency Exchanges
Japan revises registration rules for cryptocurrency exchanges

The Japanese financial regulator has revised its rules and procedures for registering cryptocurrency exchanges following the hack of Coincheck and the inspections that revealed many inadequate security measures of multiple exchanges. The regulator says its aim is to rebuild the crypto industry.

Strengthening Exchange Review Process

Japan revises registration rules for cryptocurrency exchangesThe Japanese Financial Services Agency (FSA) has reportedly strengthened its rules and procedures for approving the registrations of cryptocurrency exchanges, local media reported.

According to the Sankei Shimbun, the FSA “will strengthen the registration review” process for companies that have applied for registration but have not been approved. These companies, known as “quasi-operators” of cryptocurrencies, have been allowed to operate while their registrations are under review.

For registrars that pass the initial examination process, the agency will “proceed with [their] on-site inspections,” the news outlet detailed, adding that:

As a result of the inspection, it is a policy [of the FSA] to strongly seek ‘withdrawal’ from exchange companies that do not show improvement.

The process will help avoid a repeat of Coincheck’s situation since the hacked exchange applied for a license in September of last year but was allowed to keep operating as a quasi-operator. Coincheck has recently been acquired by Monex Group.

Rebuilding Crypto Industry

The FSA strengthened its rules after inspecting all quasi-operators and uncovered many inadequate security measures across multiple exchanges. Consequently, five companies have already withdrawn their applications and some exchanges were ordered to suspend operations. According to Jiji Press, the agency additionally revealed on Friday that another exchange, Campfire, is also “showing a willingness to withdraw its registration application.”

Japan revises registration rules for cryptocurrency exchangesSome exchanges that have obtained licenses from the agency have also been inspected, including Quoine, Tech Bureau, and GMO Coin, the news outlet added. Tech Bureau and GMO Coin have already received business improvement orders from the agency. “We mainly examine the system of protecting users, the auditing function, which we do not know by reporting alone, whether they are exercising corporate governance by properly separating management and execution,” the FSA detailed.

Furthermore, over 100 companies are reportedly planning to enter the cryptocurrency exchange business, the Sankei Shimbun noted. Among them is Line Corporation which operates one of the world’s most popular chat apps, Line.

Billionaire Mark Cuban Buys $20 in Bitcoin, Says It’s ‘In a Bubble’

American billionaire Mark Cuban took the bitcoin world by storm when he revealed his interest in the cryptocurrency and the possibility it may be a bubble.


Shark Calls bitcoin Bubble

Mark Cuban is, among other things, an American billionaire, businessman, investor and television personality. He is also known for being one of the main investors on the ABC reality television series, Shark Tank.

Yesterday, Cuban took the bitcoin world by storm when he tweeted about his new-found interest in the digital currency:

With an extensive resume in the business world and an estimated net worth of 3.4 billion dollars, it’s no wonder that Cuban’s interest in bitcoin has brought confidence to many traditional investors. However, Mark Cuban later tweeted his thoughts regarding a possible bubble in the current BTC price.

It is impossible to say with certainty if bitcoin is or isn’t in a bubble as signs pointing towards both possibilities are visible. Although the current price has made Cuban see signs of a bubble, he still recognizes the value in bitcoin as a decentralized payment system, stating:

I’m not questioning value. I’m questioning valuation.

Mark Cuban & bitcoin

So why is this important at all? Another person getting into bitcoin isn’t really groundbreaking and Cuban only bought $20 dollars worth in bitcoin to see how it works. 

However, it’s worth noting that Cuban’s visibility as a businessman and as a TV personality can go a long way in expanding Bitcoin’s outreach to traditional investors. Though, the most interesting part is that he wasn’t always a fan of bitcoin.

In a 2014, Mark Cuban told USA Today that despite being “great as an encryption technology,” he didn’t think bitcoin could make it as a global currency, stating:

I think it’s got no shot as a long term digital currency.

This means that bitcoin’s endurance as an immutable and decentralized payment system is starting to pay off,  revealing the true potential of bitcoin as a “long term digital currency.” Not only that, but the value of blockchain technology itself was also underlined in another one of Mark Cuban’s tweets:

The B-Word

While the focus created by this recent development has been received as a positive for bitcoin, it is also worth noting that the concerns of a possible cryptocurrency bubble are very real. So much so that some publications have even claimed that Cuban’s tweet regarding the possible bitcoin bubble made the price of bitcoin drop.

So, are we in a bubble? Mark Cuban isn’t the only ‘shark’ that believes this to be true.

Vinny Lingham, a South African Internet entrepreneur, co-founder & CEO of Civic, and one of the ‘sharks’ on the Shark Tank South Africa version, has expressed similar thoughts.

When asked if bitcoin is currently in a bubble, he stated:

Yes, but people who called the bubble in 2011 were wrong. It took two years to burst.

Although it’s impossible to point out a bubble with absolute certainty until it pops, one thing is clear: at 3 to 7 transactions per second, bitcoin is nowhere near ready to be adopted by the mainstream as a global digital currency.

If scaling can be achieved, however, there is no telling how high bitcoin can go.
