CryptoMixer or how to protect your privacy
Cryptomixer is a Bitcoin mixer that provides very effective and cheap Bitcoin mixing for anyone looking for extra security.
CryptoMixer has a reserve of bitcoins that is around 1800 BTC (you can find proof of solvency here).
This way you can also mix a large amount of bitcoin and assume that a large reserve guarantee you always a top service. This is especially useful for managed security services, as CryptoMixer provides this with low and customizeable fees.
In addition to all of this, Cryptomixer has many customizeable things, such as a delay. Delay allows you to prevent time-based analysis.
CryptoMixer also has provided a convenient calculator for you to estimate how much bitcoin you should send when you decide to mix your bitcoins. Many sites doesn’t offer calculators and ask for you to pay at the very last stage, which can be frustrating as you may not have the right amount of bitcoin.
In addition to all of this, CryptoMixer does not keep any transaction logs, and they’re destroyed after 24 hours to ensure nobody can get their hands on it. While it’s not likely that the site could get hacked, if it does, you’ll have a good chance that the previous mixes you’ve had will not be on their record, and so Cryptomixer has put up yet another extra layer of security systems.
CryptoMixer has great reputation in the Bitcoin community, and if you still don’t trust them, you can verify a signed message that they have provided to make sure their reserves are truly 1800 and that the message is legitimate.

Central Bank of Canada revealed the digital Cad coin
Is Cad Coin the future for Canada?
Yesterday the Central Bank of Canada announced its new project: Cad coin, or the digital version of the Canadian dollar based on the blockchain.
Cad coin is just a part of a greater study about the blockchain, called “Project Jasper”, according to The Financial Times.
Bank of Canada is not the only bank involved: in fact, other important banks such as Bank of Montreal, CIBC, Royal Bank of Canada, Scotiabank and TD Bank are participating to this innovative project.
As you can read on a Forbes post, Bank of Canada is doing tests on a system that allows people to give their cash to the bank that will convert it into Cad coin.
Banks: in love with the Blockchain?
During the last months, we read about several bank projects related to the blockchain and digital currencies.
For example, in March, Bank of England announced the decision to create its cryptocurrency called RS Coin, as you can read here.
A similar news came in February, when Bank of Russia revealed to study the blockchain for their own business applications.
“The development of modern financial markets is inseparable from the development of financial technology”, said Bank of Russia’s deputy chairman Olga Skorobogatova.
Are these news the proof that banks love blockchain applications or is it just fear?

Why the Ethereum DAO collapse is good for the cryptocurrency
The news of the Ethereum DAO hacker attack is riding high and of course it brings lots of damages for the ethereum investors who stored about $150m of the cryptocurrency.
However, it is always a good behavior to understand and see the other side of the coin, we would say.
In fact, any negative event can allow to have a better environment and more secure technologies.
A similar thing happened with the Mt Gox disaster, when we learned that an exchange must be built with more care and attention.
As Matthew Spoke, co-founder and CEO of blockchain startup Nuco, explained on Coindesk.
“the DAO attack will likely be reversed, as per Vitalik’s proposal; owners of TDT will be able to retrieve their ETH after the proposed hard fork; The DAO will be emptied of its investments; and future distributed autonomous organizations will learn from the lessons”.
Ethereum DAO: what happened?
On June 17th, an unknown hacker (or a group of hackers) stole $60m in Ethereum coins from the DAO, a decentralized autonomous organization that used the Ethereum Blockchain to leverage smart contracts and to provide a platform where people can vote and fund projects.
Previously last week the DAO experienced another issue but it was fixed soon by the open-source community and the Etheruem DAO structure and problem-solving techniques.

Bitcoin Rise: will it continue in the future days?
Bitcoin Rise: will it keep growing?
It is not a news that the Bitcoin rise very fast during the last few weeks, reaching a high of $735 today.
But the real question everybody is asking is: will Bitcoin keep growing?
After a two years high, on Wednesday the bitcoin price fell, but it was only temporary and now the price is rising again.
As we tried to explain, there are a few reasons why Bitcoin is increasing its value: at least 5 reasons that you can read here.
Volatility?
Bitcoin price dropped 8% to $661.60 on June 14th, after hitting $719.85 the day before.
But during the same day it reached $691.70 and since then it keeps growing.
So, even if the price fell, this event cannot be considered a great volatility problem. Also, several experts explained that such instability is unavoidable.
“It is important for traders to understand that markets are always following cycles,” comments Joe Lee of Magnr, “Regardless of the asset type, if a price increases too quickly, the safe assumption is that a correction will occur in the short term.”
Halving and Brexit: will the bitcoin price keep growing?
Other experts in the bitcoin sector sustain that two of the most important reasons for the digital currency higher price are the miners rewards halving and the “Brexit”, or the possibility that the UK leaves the EU.
Experts explained that the halving has a key role in the growth of demand because it reduces the reward for each new block mined by 50%.
Rik Willard of Agentic Group LLC, is convinced that bitcoin price will move around $685 until the halving occurs.

OpenBazaar Test: how the Bitcoin Ebay works
The Bitcoin Marketplace: OpenBazaar Test
Recently OpenBazaar, the decentralized marketplace where you can buy items for bitcoins, launched its new 1.1.6 version.
So we decided to do a OpenBazaar test, to let you deeply understand how it works and what you can buy on this innovative market using your cryptocurrencies.
Step-by-Step OpenBazaar Test: Follow this Guide to do some Shopping
1. First of all you need to go to the OpenBazaar website and click on the Download button you can find on the right top of the page.
2. A download will start soon. If it doesn’t, you just need to select your operating system such as Linux, Windows or Mac
3. After the download is completed, click on the file (maybe you will find it in the Download file) and launch it.
4. A new window will open where you have to complete your profile with info like name, timezone, avatar and your favorite currency.
5. You can also select your favorite theme to be used as a your profile template
6. Then you will be officially into your profile where you can add other info such as your social network profiles
7. Now you can start doing some shopping.
OpenBazaar has a simple interface, user-friendly enough to experiment and pay with your bitcoins.
Among the items you can find on this marketplace there is a wide range of the company’s merchandise, so I decided to support their cause by buying their pins.
8. As you can imagine, I just had to click on the item I wanted to purchase.
9. Then you just click on the “Buy Now” (“Compra ora” because my version is in Italian).
10. A windows will appear where they ask you if you already have a wallet (if not you can open it here).
11. Now you have to insert your public wallet address, you can find on your wallet among the settings.
During this process you can also create a temporary wallet address, useful if you can’t find your public wallet address and for security reasons you don’t want to disclose your private one.
12. OpenBazaar allows purchases from all around the world, but of course you need to pay extra bitcoins for the shipment.
For a shipment to Italy you need to pay an extra of about 0.0232 BTC, so I spent almost 17 EUR for that pin.
Bitcoin Wallet
As I said, you can purchase your items on OpenBazaar by using bitcoins; and to do so of course you need a wallet.
Open your on HolyTransaction and find out more on our wallet where you can store several different cryptocurrencies including Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin Peercoin, etc…
We call it a “Universal Wallet” for this reason.

5 ridiculous things used as a method of payment
5 items you can sell for your shopping
Some days ago Go Compare website published an interesting article about the weirdest currencies from all over the world.
In this funny list, they quote some incredible items used as a method of payment in several countries, including China, Siberia and more.
Read below the list of the 5 ridiculous things used as a method of payment.
Rai Stones
These particular kinds of stone are huge circular stone disks you can find in the Yap island, Micronesia.
Their value is based not only on its size, but also on its history. If many people died when the stone was moved or a famous person brought it in, the Rai stone value increases thanks to the anecdots related to it.
The greatest part of these stones are too large to move, so transactions are based on oral agreements.
Mobile phone Minutes
Egypt, Nigeria, Tanzania and Ghana, people began to buy and sell mobile phone minutes for small transactions. This method of payment works this way: you need to trade with prepaid cards or use mobile apps that let users send minutes to other people.
This method started to be used in 2011 and one minute values 1 unit of currency.
Seashells
In coutries such as Langa Langa Lagoon and Solomon Islands, seashells are used as a method of payment.
These seashells – that are very rare because of their value – are used to create jewels that can be sold to tourists.
Each string values approximately $90.
Tea
Tea is very popular in countries such as China and Tibet, where tea bricks are used as a method of payment as well.
Created from tea leaves, tea bricks could be used to buy livestock and pay taxes too. In Siberia and Tibet tea bricks could be eaten or used to cure some disorders such as coughs and colds.
Bottle Caps
In 2005 a beer company in Cameroon started to hide prizes under bottle caps. Competitors companies started to do the same and the result was that almost every cap had a prize on it.
Prizes include free beers, trips and cars, and winning cap became a method of payments to buy goods and service thanks to them.

How to use Facebook Messenger to create warranties on the Blockchain
The British advisory company Deloitte recently used the new Facebook Messenger API to create a program that store warranties on the Bitcoin blockchain and allows clients to buy items insurances even after their purchase.
Of course this is only an early version of the complete Deloitte project, which is capable of working without any applications to be downloaded by the user.
On the company website, Deloitte service designer, Frank van de Ven, explains:
“It allows users to add information regarding their purchases and associated warranty information on the blockchain, by using a Facebook Messenger bot.”
Facebook Messenger users are more than a billion from all around the world, so to allow startups create products for their clients, Facebook decided to expand its Messenger app, creating a new API that allows custom bots.
This news came on April 12nd, 2016 at the annual F8 of San Francisco. During this event, in fact, Facebook presented this new bot.
“Messenger Platform: Expanded access to the Messenger platform by giving you the ability to reach your customers where they already are with a new send and receive API. You will be able to build a custom bot in Messenger, providing anything from customer service to rich, interactive experiences such as automated responses or spawning a search”, explained Facebook VP Deborah Liu.
How the warranties bot works
The Deloitte warranty bot allows people to send a receipt image through the Facebook Messenger app.
Thanks to the Colu blockchain toolbox, this Deloitte feature creates a QR code and stores the bought item information on the well-known distributed ledger.
When people upload the warranty, the bot will allow items owners to transfer the warranty if the item will be resold.
It is a great idea for sure and we can’t wait to use this tool in the near future.
Multicurrencies Wallet
Blockchain is the technology that allow Bitcoin transactions.
To store your bitcoin you may need a wallet.
Open your on the HolyTransaction wallet and you will be able to store also other digital currencies such as litecoin, dogecoin, blackcoin, ethereum and more.
