China Back Among Top 10 Countries In Bitcoin Usage Despite Ban
By Shawn Amick

Blockchain analytics firm Chainalysis has released its 2022 Global Cryptocurrency Adoption Index detailing global usage of bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.

One of the most outstanding parts of the report, is China's bitcoin and cryptocurrency adoption. Despite last year's ban, the country has ranked among the top 10 in world adoption.

The report has an interesting way to rank the countries, accounting not only for amounts of accumulation, but also its usage as a medium of exchange. The conclusion being that, even as as we experience a bear market, adoption continues to rise.

💻 HASH RATE HIGH

Bitcoin Hash Rate Hits New Highs As Price Stays Flat – What It Means For Miners
By Namcios

Despite the unfavourable bitcoin price action against the dollar over the last few months, Bitcoin, the network, has shown an incredible amount of strength and performance almost totally opposite to its valuation. Just recently, Bitcoin’s total hash rate hit a new all-time high.

However, that does not meant that the industry is not struggling. A broad miner capitulation started in the beginning of the summer as the bitcoin price took a deep plunge, erasing all gains made in the previous year. During this period of challenging environment, miners are put to the test as to whether they can maintain profitability.

Nevertheless, the current strength of the network just shows the resilience of the industry and how it is already prepared to withstand adversity.

📰 THE DAILY BITS

1. The browser extension, once linked to a ZEBEDEE account, pays users for watching advertisements in redeemable points which can be exchanged for bitcoin.

2. Bringing Bitcoin adoption into communities is what creates organic usage and education from within.

3. Bitcoin’s attributes will lead to its inevitable usage as collateral for lending, mainly due to its superiority over real estate’s properties.

4. Should we depend on established political parties to defend the interest of Bitcoiners? Or is it time to form a new Bitcoin political party?

5. People should be able to choose the best money without the help of the government, but everyone is overly reliant on The State to make decisions.

6. It is extremely important to educate bitcoin users on best practices when it comes to receiving and sending bitcoin as privately as possible.

7. The state of the Treasury market isn’t looking great. With Japan, Russia and China dumping U.S. bonds, the question remains: Who will buy our debt?
