China crypto miners plot their next moves to evade crackdown

BEIJING (BLOOMBERG) - The title of the forum was arcane even by cryptocurrency standards: Web 3.0 Blockchain Application Cum Computing Power Overseas and Distributed Storage Conference. But attendees of the event in Chengdu, China, were clear about why they turned up in the middle of a government crackdown on Bitcoin mining. They are looking for ways to stay in crypto, even if it means testing their luck in lesser-known parts of the ecosystem that may or may not incur the wrath of Beijing. While plenty of miners have fled China, these crypto diehards are betting they can continue to thrive under Communist Party oversight by shifting into lesser-known tokens and decentralised storage technologies with names like Filecoin, Swarm, Silicoin and Chia. It is a high-risk wager at a time when President Xi Jinping's government is ramping up scrutiny of energy-intensive industries and anything that could pose a risk to financial stability. Filecoin is a "grey area business that hasn't yet caught regulators' attention", said Tom, who works for a Shanghai-based firm that makes mining machines. Like many of the people interviewed for this story, he asked not to use his full name given the sensi...

Bitcoin tumbles further as China tightens crypto crackdown

LONDON (REUTERS)- Bitcoin tumbled on Monday (June 21) to a two-week low on China's expanding crackdown on Bitcoin mining, as investors grew more uncertain about the future of the leading cryptocurrency. Bitcoin fell as low as US$31,333, a two-week trough, dragging down other cryptocurrencies. It was last down 10.7 per cent, its largest daily percentage loss in a month. The world's biggest cryptocurrency has lost more than 20 per cent in the last six days alone and was at half its April peak of almost US$65,000. Year to date, it remained up about 11 per cent. Some Bitcoin investors were concerned further losses could be in store due to a chart formation known as a death cross which occurs when a short-term average trendline crosses below a long-term average trendline. China has been tightening its crackdown on cryptocurrencies. On Friday, the authorities in the south-west province of Sichuan ordered Bitcoin mining projects to close. Last month the State Council, China's cabinet, vowed to clamp down on mining and trading as part of a campaign to control financial risks. On Monday, China's central bank said it recently summoned some banks and payment firms, including China Constructio...

Bitcoin jumps after Elon Musk says Tesla will resume its use when mining cleaner

NEW YORK (BLOOMBERG) - Bitcoin jumped above US$39,000 after billionaire Elon Musk said Tesla would resume transactions with the cryptocurrency when mining is done with more clean energy. The electric car maker will allow Bitcoin transactions again "when there's confirmation of reasonable (~50 per cent) clean energy usage by miners with positive future trend", Mr Musk, Tesla's chief executive, said in a tweet. His posting was in reply to a report in Cointelegraph, which cited Ms Magda Wierzycka, executive chair of South African asset manager Sygnia, as saying that Mr Musk's recent tweets on Bitcoin should have prompted an investigation by the United States Securities and Exchange Commission. The cryptocurrency gained as much as 9.3 per cent to US$39,372 on Sunday afternoon in New York, the highest level since June 3 and just below the US$40,000 round-number level seen as key by some chart watchers. It was down about 1 per cent to US$38,881 as at 7am in Hong Kong on Monday (June 14). "The tweet added to positive momentum as Elon's stance seems to be moderating and providing a target that's not far away," said Mr Jonathan Cheesman, head of over-the-counter and institutional sales at c...

Bitcoin plunges after Elon Musk’s Tesla stops taking it for car payments over climate concerns

BENGALURU (REUTERS) - Tesla has suspended the use of bitcoin to purchase its vehicles because of climate concerns, chief executive officer Elon Musk said in a tweet on Wednesday (May 12), reversing the company's stance in the face of an outcry from some environmentalists and investors. Bitcoin, the world's biggest digital currency, dropped as much as 15 per cent after the tweet, sliding below US$50,000 (S$66,670) in Asian trading. Tesla revealed in February it had bought US$1.5 billion of bitcoin and would soon accept it as payment for cars, driving a roughly 20 per cent surge in the world's most widely held cryptocurrency. Mr Musk on Wednesday said Tesla would not sell any bitcoin, and intends to use bitcoin for transactions as soon as mining transitions to more sustainable energy. "We are also looking at other cryptocurrencies that use Mr Musk said in March that Tesla customers can buy its electric vehicles with bitcoin. The digital currency is created when high-powered computers compete against other machines to solve complex mathematical puzzles, an energy-intensive process that currently often relies on electricity generated with fossil fuels, particularly coal. At current rat...
