Dow Futures Hits Green Zone But Wall Street Fears Trump Snap
Dow Jones Industrial Average futures are up Thursday morning. Donald Trump is supposed to meet his advisers today to decide the fate of Dec. 15 tariffs. If the U.S. goes ahead with the tariffs, the stock market could take a hit today. Futures on the Dow Jones Industrial Average (DJIA) are trading in the green early Thursday thanks to the Federal Reserve. The Fed believes that it would be a good idea to keep any interest rate hikes on hold through 2020, sending a wave of cheer through the stock market. The Dow Jones managed to snap a two-day losing streak and finished slightly in the green Wednesday. This happened despite a clutch of negative from major Dow components. Lululemon, for instance, offered a tepid fourth-quarter outlook. The company expects to clock earnings between $2.10 and $2.13 per share during the busy holiday season as compared to the market’s expectation of $2.13 per share. Boeing was dealt with another blow in the 737 MAX scandal, with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) deciding to keep the plane grounded until next year….

BitMEX, OKEx, Binance and Deribit: Which Stood out in This Extreme Market with Best Market Depth
Last week was some of the darkest hours of global financial markets. Affected by the COVID-19 epidemic and oil price war, global stock markets, crude oil price, gold price and futures markets dived successively. While people were eager to seek robust investment targets and found that Bitcoin might be the last sort of safe-haven asset, BTC plummeted by approximately 50% on March 13 to a low of $3,791.9. The sudden drop in prices not only impacted the entire crypto market, but also challenged crypto exchanges worldwide. When huge traffic flooded exchanges with intense fear in a short period of time, whether an exchange had enough market depth to support such a large number of orders to protect the interests of users to the greatest extent became the most important thing for traders.

When Anti-Bitcoin Peter Schiff Lost his BTC…
Peter Schiff may be unable to sell his Bitcoin (BTC), after getting locked out of his wallet. Schiff, who has been critical of BTC and sees its price as potentially tanking, tweeted that his wallet failed to decrypt. Peter Schiff Loses Acess to his Bitcoin Stash Bitcoin wallets are not forgiving of lost passwords or key files, and Schiff said he effectively lost all his coins. I just lost all the #Bitcoin I have ever owned. My wallet got corrupted somehow and my password is no longer valid. So now not only is my Bitcoin intrinsically worthless; it has no market value either. I knew owning Bitcoin was a bad idea, I just never realized it was this bad! pic.twitter.com/6SJvDJOZU6 — Peter Schiff (@PeterSchiff) January 19, 2020 Of course, Schiff’s BTC stash is safe and sound, in case he manages to make the wallet work again, or recovers the password. PIN and passwords, as well as key phrases, or lost wallet.dat files, have locked a significant part of the BTC supply by accident. Schiff, however, claims he is using the correct…

Stanford Prof Darrell Duffie on Our Big Stablecoin Future
This post is part of CoinDesk’s 2019 Year in Review, a collection of 100 op-eds, interviews and takes on the state of blockchain and the world. Darrell Duffie is a professor of finance at Stanford University. Darrell Duffie is on the faculty of Stanford University’s Graduate School of Business, where he teaches and researches financial market design. Fulfilling the academic adage “publish or perish,” Duffie writes a lot. His work spans from modeling financial ecosystems to questioning the credibility of LIBOR (a sometimes-manipulated benchmark for setting interest rates on loans). He also writes about the disruptive inevitabilities of cryptocurrency, specifically fiat-backed stablecoins. In October, at a distinguished Group of Thirty event, Duffie gave a presentation alongside Libra co-creator David Marcus and Bank for International Settlements general manager Agustin Carstens on the impact of stablecoins on banking systems. Crypto will transform the economy by reducing inefficiencies at the interpersonal, interbank and international level, he said. I emailed Professor Duffie a lot of questions about stablecoins over a period of several weeks. Below is a compiled and condensed transcription of our emailed…
