Here’s What Went Down At The 2018 Cloudflare Internet Summit
Over ten years ago in the now foreign world that was 2004, Lee Holloway and Matthew Prince set out to answer one question, “where does email spam come from?” Together, the pair built a system which allowed people to track how their emails were being taken by spammers. With this, Project Honey Pot began.

Here’s Why Paranoia Fuels Bitcoin
The only sort of financial system which works at scale is one which has been decided by courts and enforced by a threat of violence.

Despite Inflation Crisis, Most Filipinos Reject Bitcoin. Here’s Why
The Philippines is experiencing an inflation crisis. Yet virtually its entire population of 106 million people are unaware of and reject the notion that Bitcoin (BTC) and cryptocurrencies give them a payment solution and store of value. The archipelago is the 13th most populous country and it’s a case study that shows why crypto adoption is difficult where education is lacking and the local culture resists change.
The government claims inflation is 6.4% year-over-year but bureaucrats are eager to protect President Rodrigo Duterte by padding official stats.

Here’s What’s Caused XRP To Skyrocket This Week
XRP has flown upwards this week, after various news reports and positive announcements. For the first time in quite a long time, XRP seems to have embarked on an upswing. Of course, the climb was limited by the overarching negative trend of the markets, but this didn’t stop XRP moving from a low of $ 0.255, up to a weekly high of $ 0.333.
By all accounts, this week’s high is the highest figure recorded for XRP since the very start of September.

Here’s Why It’s Unlikely Bill Cosby Bought $5M Worth of Bitcoin
The recent headlines about Bill Cosby have done nothing to warm public sentiment to the confirmed sex offender and disgraced comedian. According to rumors on tabloid website Radar Online, Cosby bought 750 BTC (~$ 5 million) in a bid to shield his diminishing fortune from his wife Camille.
The article goes on to say that Cosby owes millions to the government along with some $ 25 million in unpaid legal fees. Sensational stuff indeed. Not only does this story serve to drag Cosby’s reputation to a new low, but it also muddies the waters about Bitcoin. Once again, the world’s number-one cryptocurrency is labeled as a vehicle for illicit deeds and tax evasion, with sex offenders as paying customers.

Here’s Why Genesis Mining Might Have Just Booted You Off Their Platform
