  • 这个中美洲国家是世界上第一个采用加密货币作为官方交易手段的国家;该国现在比特币和美元并用。
  • Systems were overwhelmed as people downloaded the government-backed Chivo, or "cool", e-wallet, after the government offered $30-worth of free bitcoin as an incentive.
  • 政府提供了价值30美元的免费比特币作为奖励后,人们下载了政府支持的Chivo(又称“酷”)电子钱包,系统不堪重负。

  • 比特币的推出加剧了本已动荡的比特币交易;币价一度暴跌,速度之快被形容为“闪电崩盘”。

  • 加密货币交易所Coinbase透露,美国证券交易委员会威胁称,如果Coinbase将一款允许用户出借加密资产并赚取贷款利息的产品推向市场,将会遭到起诉。
  • The company suggested that this may be because the SEC classifies the product as a security (therefore falling outside existing lending regulations), but it had not been given an official explanation.

  • SoftBank benefits through a strategic arrangement that gives it access to Deutsche Telekom's European customer base.
