1- First and foremost, the world’s first bank-owned cryptocurrency exchange opened in Japan.  Japanese financial giant SBI Holdings formally launched its cryptocurrency exchange platform, on Tuesday, calling it VCTRADE.  The launch came nearly two years after its initial announcement and after months of delays this year.

2- The other big news was from the US tech giant, IBM, who has teamed up with financial technology start-up Stronghold on a cryptocurrency that’s pegged to the U.S. dollar. IBM is exploring whether a cryptocurrency pegged to the U.S. dollar may be a better option for making payments than other digital currencies, which tend to be volatile.
