VERY BULLISH NEWS: SOUTH KOREA IS BACK IN ICO SPACE

Recently Effect.AI confirmed that South Korea participants can participate in the Effect.AI ICO through their Telegram channel: "Our law team has just confirmed that South Korea is NOT banned from participating in the Effect.AI Token Offering. If you are a South Korean resident that has not registered yet, you CAN sign up for the Whitelist here: https://token.effect.ai/ " This should be very bullish news for the NEO Based ICO Effect.AI and maybe even for the cryptomarket in general if South Korea can start participating in ICO's again. submitted by /u/chocomel2 [link] [comments] from Cryptocurrency news and discussions. http://ift.tt/2CrrURg

[Kraken] Notice Regarding Closure of SMBC Funding Bank Accounts

Just got this Mail Two things come up to my mind a) Japan is more strict now regarding liabilities (lost of funds) and Kraken wants to avoid that (sounds like a good possibility) b) Japan is suddenly less Crypto-Friendly and something has happened which I doesn't know.

We regret to inform you that due to a variety of circumstances, we will be closing the following SWIFT bank accounts, as well as our domestic JPY funding accounts at SMBC in Japan. Please note that SEPA Euro funding will not be affected. Cryptocurrency funding will continue as usual.
