Prominent KPMG Strategist Joins XinFin Hybrid Blockchain for Global Trade and Finance

S.V. Sukumar, formerly of KPMG, (head of strategy and operation consulting) is now with XinFin. Here’s the press release. Here’s the XinFin white paper. XinFin is an open source hybrid blockchain protocol. Its goal is to “help address the inefficiencies that exist in the global trade and finance markets today.”

What inefficiencies? Chiefly those that result from the inabilities of micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (MSMEs) to avail themselves of the financing that is available to the top end of the range of enterprises. Its prime use business cases include wallets, financial applications for cross-border payments, remittance sale, and so forth.

The white paper also observes that “across southeast Asia and the Pacific region, more than 120 million MSMEs, including both formal and informal ones, are unserved or underserved in terms of credit facilities.”    

Sukumar is welcome aboard into a world where thinking big, on that scale, is taken for granted. The press release says that he’ll be responsible for “demystifying the underlying advantages to create concrete awareness.” That sounds like a bit of a concession that there is something mystifying about XinFin’s business plans in his absence. The best of luck to them, though, and to their new arrival.


Ashton Kutcher Makes a $4m Crypto Donation on Ellen’s show

Here at Main Bloq we like to keep track of the process by which cryptocurrency news seeps into pop culture. Here’s a new instance: a very high profile donation using Ripple (xrp).

Ashton Kutcher is best known as an actor. He starred in Dude, Where’s My Car?, The Butterfly Effect, and Jobs.

He is also a very savvy investor, having gotten early into Skype, Foursquare, Airbnb, etc.

He recently made a drop-in appearance on Ellen DeGeneres’ talk show. He talked up Ripple, and  segued into a discussion of a cause to which DeGeneres is devoted, African wildlife preservation.  For the benefit of that cause, he used a ripple app to transfer to her US$4 million, exchanged into Rwandan francs and deposited into a Wildlife Fund.


Bitcoin Gold Hit by Double Spend Cyber Attack

Join our community of 10 000 traders on Hacked.com for just $39 per month.

A malicious miner successfully executed a double spend attack on the Bitcoin Gold network last week, making BTG at least the third altcoin to succumb to a network attack during that timespan.

Bitcoin Gold director of communications Edward Iskra first warned users about the attack on May 18, explaining that a malicious miner was using the exploit to steal funds from cryptocurrency exchanges.

To execute the attack, the miner acquired at least 51 percent of the network’s total hashpower, which provided them with temporary control of the blockchain. Obtaining this much hashpower is incredibly expensive — even on a smaller network like bitcoin gold — but it can be monetized by using it in tandem with a double spend attack.

After gaining control of the network, the attacker began depositing BTG at cryptocurrency exchanges while also attempting to send those same coins to a wallet under their control. Ordinarily, the blockchain would resolve this by including only the first transaction in the block, but the attacker was able to reverse transactions since they had majority control...


Huobi Pro Launches New Crypto Market Index

Cryptocurrency exchange Huobi Pro is launching a new market index for its customers, the company announced Wednesday.

The index will "reflect the overall performance of Huobi Pro market," allowing investors to see a single aggregated feed rather than having to check on individual assets one at a time.

The index will use weighted samples, according to the press release, which explained that the index divides digital assets into four categories: digital asset, platform, application and real asset substitute (not included in the...


Monero's Lead Developer Is Helping Launch a Crypto Trading Protocol

Loyalty points, concert tickets and in-game items will soon appear on a new protocol built on the monero network.

Called Tari, this new digital assets protocol will help support non-fungible tokens - tokens with unique properties, such as tickets with ownership information (think CryptoKitties) - said co-founder Naveen Jain.

Monero project lead Riccardo Spagni, more commonly known as fluffypony, and entrepreneur Dan Teree are also part of the founding team, Jain told CoinDesk.

Tari's goal is to "support any kind of digital assets." For example, one use case for the protocol would be to allow digital asset issuers to participate in the secondary market - meaning resales in particular.

However, the protocol can also support items in video games or even native assets, Jain said, adding:

"If you have a decentralized distributed trustless system that supports non-fungible tokens that enforces the rule...
