Converging on Cryptocurrencies #1

Altcoins:

 Zcash, a supposedly untraceable alternative to bitcoin, has supposedly entered alpha release.

Bitcoin:

10 Dutch men were arrested for money laundering using bitcoin.

There are a lot of false beliefs about bitcoin.

There's an opinion piece on the intersection of bitcoin and politics.

Exchanges:

Cryptsy went under.  Supposedly this was caused by a hack, but given the history associated with MT Gox...

Bitstamp has banned Russian users access temporarily.

Blockchain:

Blockchain technology company R3CEV has successfully tested a bitcoin blockchain derived system for 11 international banks for bank transaction settlement.

All things blockchain are being hyped at Davos.

The Guardian REALLY hypes the blockchain.

The Economist also talks blockchain.

Some are trying to cut through the blockchain hype.
