Não aprendemos muitas novidades na audiência de hoje, mas o destaque estava definitivamente no aplicativo de negociação gamificado, em vez dos traders em r / WallStreetBets.

Vlad Tenev, CEO da Robinhood, ocupou um lugar de destaque na audiência de hoje perante o Comitê de Serviços Financeiros da Câmara sobre a volatilidade do mercado de janeiro.

Nenhum dos representantes parecia particularmente interessado em colocar os parafusos para o CEO do Reddit Steve Huffman, e muitos pareciam dar a Keith Gill os mesmos apoios que o resto de nós deu.

Estes não são os manipuladores de mercado que você está procurando

Gill, com toda a justiça, foi o personagem mais simpático envolvido, apresentando suas observações dizendo “Algumas coisas que não sou: não sou um gato e não sou um investidor credenciado”. Gill, que realmente começou esta cadeia de eventos postando sobre seu investimento na GameStop em junho de 2019, até mesmo dobrou sua opinião de que GME continua sendo uma boa compra hoje, a preços atuais. Isso apesar do fato de que o comércio selvagem de GME atraiu investigações criminais .

Essa falta de escrutínio em relação a Gill e Huffman contribui muito para reprimir o medo generalizado de que os eventos em torno do comércio explosivo de ações da Crypto Trader no final de janeiro desencadeariam investigações sobre o papel das plataformas de mídia social na potencial manipulação do mercado.

Isso ocorre no momento em que o Subcomitê Antitruste da Câmara anunciou hoje mais audiências para examinar os maiores participantes da mídia social. O Reddit, por enquanto, parece ter passado despercebido.

O congressista Warren Davidson, que faz parte do comitê, observou esta rara área de consenso, dizendo à Cointelegraph: “Eu estava esperançoso desde o início porque no início do ciclo de notícias AOC estava defendendo os usuários do Reddit, dizendo que essas pessoas deveriam ter um direito de comércio. E então Ted Cruz, do outro lado do espectro político disse, ‚bem, nós concordamos.‘ ”

Modelo de negócios de Tenev

Embora, de maneira geral, os republicanos tenham sido mais tolerantes do que os democratas ao tratar da atividade de Robinhood e, especialmente, do polêmico fechamento da empresa para comprar, mas não vender, de GME e outras ações de alta volatilidade, todos queriam respostas de Tenev.

A natureza do modelo de receita da Robinhood, que é baseado na venda do fluxo de pedidos , embora se anunciando como livre de comissões, passou por um exame minucioso, assim como sua dependência de uma injeção de capital de $ 3 bilhões para atender aos requisitos de garantia.

“Acredito que uma vulnerabilidade foi claramente exposta em seu modelo de negócios”, disse o congressista Anthony Gonzales ao questionar Tenev. “Simplesmente não podemos viver em um mundo onde meus constituintes possam ter suas ações liquidadas se você não puder fazer uma chamada de capital.”

Muitos gritaram as alegações de Robinhood de estar ocupado democratizando as finanças. Tenev empurrou consistentemente a cifra de US $ 35 bilhões como ganhos totais dos usuários do Robinhood, que o Rep. Jim Himes disse „você e qualquer outra pessoa com formação em finanças sabem que não tem sentido sem uma taxa de retorno“.

Mas, embora a audiência de hoje tenha revelado muita hostilidade em relação a Tenev, não foi tão educativo.

Apesar da advertência da presidente Maxine Waters de que „Isso não é teatro político“, não parecia haver nenhum senso comum de soluções para o comércio épico que alimentou a ascensão meteórica da GameStop (GME) no final de janeiro.

Neo-bank Revolut is expanding its cryptocurrency offering by adding EOS, OMG Network (OMG), 0x (ZRX) and Tezos (XTZ) for its European customers.

4 additional cryptocurrencies

London-based Revolut has announced support for 4 additional cryptocurrencies to enable its European customers to purchase EOS , OMG Network (OMG), 0x (ZRX) and Tezos (XTZ) .

It was already possible to buy major cryptocurrencies such as Bitcoin (BTC), Ether (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), Bitcoin Cash (BCH), XRP and Stellar (XLM). It is therefore now possible to buy 10 different cryptocurrencies on the application.

According to Revolut, the new additions meet significant user demand . The neo-bank claims 12 million customers worldwide and has exceeded one million customers in France.

Revolut has not changed its pricing structure for Crypto Legacy, the neo-bank charges a 2.5% commission for each conversion. Users with a Premium or Metal subscription benefit from a 1.5% commission .

Limited service

The cryptocurrency purchasing service offered by Revolut for its American and European customers has some limitations .

Indeed, cryptocurrencies purchased via its application remain locked there , the bank being the custodian. Apart from the purchase, customers can only transfer their cryptocurrency to other Revolut users . Additionally, customers cannot pay in cryptocurrency using their bank card.

In July 2020, the neo-bank had yet taken a step forward by giving its users a „right of use“ on crypto assets.

“You will own the rights to the financial value of any cryptocurrency that we purchase for you. We will hold it on your behalf and you will have a right (called a “beneficial interest”) in it. “

A change which had given legal property rights to clients, but which seems relatively limited in practice.

However, in October Revolut integrated a new wallet and a new retention system in partnership with the company Fireblocks . Fireblocks‘ commitment aims to improve the customer experience and promote the introduction of new services dedicated to cryptocurrencies.

No momento em que este artigo foi escrito, o BTC / USDT subiu novamente para 17.146,77 USD.

The exchange informs users that they have two weeks to meet the KYC deadline.

Failure to update information on time will result in loss of checkout capability

The KYC (Know Your Client) requirement is one of the many steps Bitcoin Superstar has taken to meet compliance standards.

The BitMEX derivatives platform has reminded users that they have two weeks to update their KYC (Know Your Customer) information. If the deadline is passed, users will not be able to withdraw funds or maintain positions.

The cryptocurrency derivatives platform BitMEX reminded users on November 19 that they have two more weeks to meet the KYC deadline. Users who do not do so before December 4th will not be able to continue trading, maintain positions or withdraw funds.

BitMEX:

Reminder – Two weeks to complete user verification: Complete verification by December 4, 2020 at 00:00 UTC to continue trading, hold positions open, and withdraw funds. We thank the users for their support. Learn more: https://blog.bitmex.com/important-user-verification-deadline-on-4-december-2020/

KYC at withdrawal? Why would you need to know your non-client who leaves and no longer trades?

It’s not correct

The community’s reaction was swift and harsh. Many Twitter users complained that the exchange prevented users from withdrawing their funds if they did not meet the conditions. One of the common questions was why BitMEX needed to know user details if they were already leaving.

BitMEX’s expedited KYC requirements are the result of multiple investigations and lawsuits. The exchange shortened its KYC deadline by two months after facing CFTC and DOJ action in October 2020.

The exchange has taken other steps to strengthen compliance, including adding the Refinitiv Toolset to its platform. This should help the exchange monitor illegal use of its platform. It also announced a monitoring partnership with the AML Eventus Systems platform.

For their part, the US authorities have stepped up their examination of the cryptocurrency space. The SEC has filed several lawsuits this year that have resulted in closings or settlements . Telegram was forced to shut down its blockchain project, while Kik settled his lawsuit with a $ 5 million fine.

BitMEX lawsuits rocked the platform

BitMEX has been working hard to implement the KYC rules since US authorities started legal action against it. The exchange has attempted to play down legal actions, saying the exchange will continue to operate normally. BitMEX founders also face charges, most notably CEO Arthur Hayes.

BitMEX is also facing legal action claiming its founders „looted“ $ 440 million after learning about the investigations. These allegations were dismissed by the exchange, which pledged to fight all lawsuits against her.
