Crypto Digest V.2 - JP Morgan Shilling again, Brazil - First Government with Blockchain Voting system, China mining crackdown, Bitpay Security Flaws and Bullying

China is as confused as we are with how they're going to deal with mining operations. I think in the end they will implement huge fee's that will counterbalance infrastructure expansion for their power grids. But for now, mining may be "restricted." Which is HUGE news for BTC tx times. And crypto in general.

"Bitpay Bullying other wallets ? Security flaws in implementation?"

Bitpay bullying other wallets into switching to a sending protocol that doesn't show the wallet address. Is this jumping the gun? My worry of non-wallet addresses is it moves away from the idea of our wallets. Our money. It easily could transition from "psuedo" addresses into their "bank routing numbers."

to accompany this, Jan 14th will be known as "BCC change the address day" where users can customize their addresses.
