What’s gaining on on the market
The cryptocurrency community has been paying little attention to fundamental news. That’s why the report that the Central Bank of India authorized cryptocurrencies was left unnoticed so far. We shall wait for the details, but this news has good bullish potential.
Apart from that, Binance announced credit-card payment support to foster mass adoption for digital assets, while Ethereum launched difficulty bomb ahead of Constantinople update.
