Although some of the bearish market momentum has begun to relent once again, it seems unlikely most markets will note any sort of positive momentum throughout today.  The Tron price, while still under pressure, may very well see a rebound fairly soon. Its losses in BTC value are nearly gone, which should allow the USD value to recover a bit of lost ground as well.

Tron Price Tries to Break Even

It is always interesting to see how individual cryptocurrency projects evolve as more time progresses. The fewer projects rely on bitcoin’s price momentum first and foremost, the healthier the ecosystem will become. As far as Tron is concerned, it remains to be seen what role bitcoin’s price momentum plays exactly. More often than not, it would appear as if Tron couldn’t care less about what bitcoin offers.

This is also evident when looking at the Tron price momentum over the past 24 hours. A net loss of 0.9% in USD value is not positive, but it is not necessarily insurmountable either. There is also the 0.5% loss over bitcoin, which is slightly more promising. More specifically, if these losses can be nullified, there is a chance the USD value will bounce back from its current level of $0.023237. Reaching 600 Satoshi may prove to be a bigger challenge, though.

It has to be said, the developments taking place in the Tron ecosystem are looking promising. Over 12 million smart contract triggers have been executed over the past two weeks. While not necessarily a determining factor, it is something to keep an eye on moving forward. Combined with the overall excitement regarding Tron in general, it seems to indicate this ecosystem continues to grow by leaps and bounds.

Speaking of innovation and the Tron ecosystem, the number of dApps continues to increase. Alongside it, the TRX volume across these distributed applications is also on the rise. By actively surpassing $100m in 24-hour volume, things are getting pretty interesting. This growth shows there is a lot of potential waiting to be unlocked, even though dApps are always a bit of a niche trend among cryptocurrency users first and foremost.

Even when things are going well in the Tron ecosystem, it seems there will be those who oppose the project at any possible turn. Even the recently shared Tron-themed mug on social media draws comments such as “Tron is a shitcoin”. There is a good reason why no one can have nice things in the cryptocurrency world, and this sums up that reason quite perfectly.

All things considered, there is a lot to be excited about when it comes to Tron. Even though the current price might not necessarily reflect this positive momentum, there is nothing to be overly concerned about at this time. If the TRX/BTC losses can be overturned, there is a good chance things will improve pretty quickly. This bearish trend during the weekend is not an indicator of what may come next week either.

Coinbase Adds 100k New Users in Just 24 Hours as Bitcoin Prices Continue to Climb

Interest in bitcoin is intensifying. People wishing to purchase bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies are flocking to digital currency exchanges, such as Coinbase. In effect, on November 2, 2017, as bitcoin hit all-time highs for the third week in a row, Coinbase added more than 100,000 customers in just a 24-hour period.


Many Are Now Jumping on the bitcoin Bandwagon

The number of people wishing to participate in the cryptocurrency ecosystem is increasing exponentially. For example, data collected by Alistair Milne shows the extraordinary growth of Coinbase’s customer base.

Coinbase, the online cryptocurrency exchange, now has more than 11.9 million customers, in 32 countries. The amount of digital currency Coinbase has exchanged has reached $40 billion USD, according to the company’s website.

Based in San Francisco, California, Coinbase allows customers to instantly purchase bitcoin, Ethereum, and Litecoin using a US bank account.

Launching of bitcoin Futures Contracts

Launching of Bitcoin Futures Contracts

bitcoin’s value continues to increase dramatically. As of this writing, bitcoin’s price has surpassed $7,300 USD. Thus, the cryptocurrency is poised for its fifth consecutive quarter of impressive growth in value.

Financial experts suggest various reasons to explain bitcoin’s recent increase in value. For example, many experts attribute the latest spike to the CME Group’s announcement that it plans to launch bitcoin futures contracts in the fourth quarter of this year, contingent upon regulatory approval. This announcement has aroused investors’ interest. The CME Group is one of the largest derivative marketplaces.

Other experts propose that the bitcoin’s recent price spike is due to the upcoming Segwit2x blockchain hard-fork. Blockchain is the technology behind bitcoin. On November 16, 2017, blockchain is scheduled to undergo a hard-fork, or split, known as Segwit2x. Consequently, there will be two bitcoin blockchains and two types of coins: bitcoin and Bitcoin2x.

The Segwit2x hard-fork might significantly benefit those holding bitcoin because they will receive an equal amount of Bitcoin2x for each bitcoin they possess.

Specifically, as detailed by Coinbase, “Any user storing bitcoin on Coinbase at the time of the fork will be credited with an equal amount of the new Bitcoin2x asset on the Bitcoin2x blockchain. No action is required – we will automatically credit your account. If you have 5 bitcoin stored on Coinbase before the fork, you will have 5 bitcoin and 5 Bitcoin2x following the event.”

But even before the CME Group’s bitcoin futures announcement and the Segwit2x hard-fork, bitcoin’s adoption rate had been increasing. As we can see by the striking number of new Coinbase customers now subscribing in a single day, this trend seems likely to strengthen.

Do you think bitcoin’s adoption rate is just scratching the surface? Let us know in the comments below.
