Good morning traders and TGIF! What a week behind us again. Rumors of South Korea crypto ban originally sent the coins tumbling, but most have somewhat regained their footing or trying to, at least to some extent, on South-Korea governemnt's official clarification that no ban is planned (at least in the short term). Good luck fighting cryptos - i guess their government realizes this and is looking for other ways to combat it or profit themselves from it.

So what's happening?

I wrote about the STEEM -> VICE softfork in this post (SFW).

VICE whitelist is now open if you want to participate in the crowdsale, that is starting on February 1st. But getting on the whitelist is not free, but it's not pricey either. Paid whitelist probably implenented to keep the less serious folk away from it. If you held some STEEM on December 29th, 2017, you're going to get a free airdrop anyway, as soon as the token launches.

Apparently Binance has opened again their new user registrations. I managed to get in via an affiliate link already a few days ago, so all of you, who are missing a trading account, might try to hit them up. I am personally not looking to do any trading there, but better have that account ready for the rainy days. Apparently there were people selling crypto trading account for 2000-4000 USD on Reddit as well - so better be prepared.

The Binance CEO Zhao Changpeng told Bloomberg that once they re-opened, they added 240 000 new users in just under an hour! That's a quarter of mil new users, new money, new pumps coming!

I've been keeping an eye on WTI oil - i was taken out with a stop, but i have re-entered small. This is the WTI oil chart from yesterday -at the exact moment of the turn - in the history of WTI oil, there has never been such a high reading of RSI

Tanker Trackers has shared these satellite images to illustrate the massive amount of supply in oil. The location is unfortunately unknown to me, but they show perfectly how much producers are hoarding and why the price cannot stay high

Very useful article! Thank you, my dear friend!
As for Binance, you can actually register without problems. But there is some feature. If you can not register today, then you should not try again. It is necessary to wait for the next day. Personally, I and so many of my friends had. I do not know what this is connected with.

The idea for the WTI brand is very good! Keep it up, @furious-one!!!

As always, I'm interested in your expert opinion about ethereum and ripple.

What do you think about this?
Thank you very much!

I think cryptos are basing... no sure thing in the markets though

Any idea why Binance is not adding STEEM, they have lots of lower ranked coins, why not STEEM?

I truly have no idea, but there is probably some simple and logical reason behind this. But check out Steemvoter initiative to get STEEM listed on Quoinex and other exchanges, maybe they will eventually conquer Binance too.

Thanks for the information. I think STEEM will get more attention after SMT release and price rise. Its volume is increasing. I don't know but there could be some hurdles to setup exchange node for STEEM which may need dev support (i.e. regular outage at HitBTC and Poloniex). However, after HF and SMT, exchanges should be a burning issue for the community & STINC.

I actually need to do much catching up on Steem, thanks for reminding me.

Thank you for the update re Binance and keep posting re Oil. In addition to dry inventory stockpiles, as you likely know, the floating inventories are massive.

the rumor caused a market spiral downwards and lost $120B now its trying to get its foot back . this is great news, it was just a FUD, binance are accepting new users is great news, more people to join the coin market

funny hodl meme, haven't seen it before...
