Imagine a future where justice is accessible. Where fair treatment in the pursuit of legal action is not reliant on your income, job status, or the number of zeros in your bank account.

Trial Token, of Trial Funds Society, describes the access to justice as the ability of any one person to use the legal system to advocate for themselves, regardless of their income. Yet thousands of low-income families face multiple barriers when it comes to navigating our legal system, a complicated institution that is already riddled with high fees, complex processes, confusing legal jargon, and inaccessible legal information.

In theory, justice applies equally to all. In practice, it applies only to those who can afford it. That’s because lawsuits have emerged as a distinct asset class, like real estate, private equity, precious metals or stocks and bonds, in which justice is accessible to those who can afford it.

So how do you go about restoring trust in an inaccessible, confusing system that was built to be accessible and designed to provide justice for all?

The Premise of Trial Token

That’s exactly what Trial Token envisions: access and inclusion to legal action. And they’re providing it one case at a time with their advanced, online platform for crowdsourced litigation funding that leverages blockchain and Ethereum’s smart contracts technology.

Trial Token facilitates trust by connecting parties who are seeking funding for their claims with backers who may be interested in their case and in providing support in the way of litigation financing.

How it Works

It’s simple.

Plaintiffs seeking legal services purchase Trial Tokens (TT) which is based on the ERC-20 standard. From there, they create a comprehensive case on Trial Funds for which backers to can access and view.

Every case taken in by Trial Token is meticulously vetted and reviewed by a team of expert, legal advisors. Backers review a plaintiff’s case and select one they wish to support and fund. Plaintiffs receive the funding for their case and pursue justice, and backers can track the progress of the case,

Once the case is settled or won, the backer will receive a portion of the settlement.

Based on the Ethereum protocol and conforming to the ERC-20 standards, Trial Tokens will utilize the smart contract technology to maintain a public ledger that maps Ethereum addresses to Token balances.

Only 1 billion of Trial Tokens will only ever be created with a structured mechanism of allocation and are intended to be sold during their initial Primary Token Sale at a price of USD $0.10 per Token Pre-sale conversion.

How to Buy

Trial Token recommends creating an Etherwallet, or use any digital wallet that sees you as the owner of the private key. To purchase, send to Trial Token’s sale smart contract, where you will receive your Trial Tokens once the primary sale is complete. You can also purchase your tokens via credit card or wire transfer — just email [email protected] for more information.

A Revolution

Litigation should not be a class asset that parties cannot afford.

Trial Token is changing the litigation financial system. By marrying collaboration and the advancements in technology, they are making the pursuit of justice inclusive, empowering, and transparent.

The post Ripple Price Technical Analysis – XRP/USD Bearish Toward $1.1250 appeared first on NewsBTC.

Key Highlights

  • Ripple price started a fresh downside wave from $1.3438 and moved below $1.2500 against the US dollar.
  • There was a break below a key bullish trend line with support at $1.2150 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair (data source from SimpleFx).
  • The pair is currently heading lower and it may soon retest the $1.1250 support area.

Ripple price is currently back in the bearish zone against the US Dollar and Bitcoin. XRP/USD could extend declines towards the $1.1250 and $0.8500 support levels.

Ripple Price Resistance

After a decent recovery above $1.3000, Ripple price faced sellers on the upside against the US Dollar. The price traded as high as $1.3438 and it later started a downside wave. It traded lower and broke the 38.2% Fib retracement level of the last leg from the $1.0595 low to $1.3438 high. It opened the doors for more losses and the price traded below the $1.2500 support and the 100 hourly simple moving average.

During the downside move, there was a break below a key bullish trend line with support at $1.2150 on the hourly chart of the XRP/USD pair. This is a strong bearish sign since the price is now below the 50% Fib retracement level of the last leg from the $1.0595 low to $1.3438 high. It could continue to move down towards the next major support at $1.1250. The mentioned level is near the 76.4% Fib retracement level of the last leg from the $1.0595 low to $1.3438 high.

Ripple Price Technical Analysis XRP USD

Should there be a break and close below $1.1250, there can be a test of the $1.0000 handle. On the upside, the broken support near $1.2100 and the 100 hourly SMA are likely to prevent recoveries.

Looking at the technical indicators:

Hourly MACD – The MACD for XRP/USD is gaining pace in the bearish zone.

Hourly RSI (Relative Strength Index) – The RSI for XRP/USD is moving lower towards the 30 level.

Major Support Level – $1.1250

Major Resistance Level – $1.2500

Altcoin Analysis: NEO, EOS, LTC and IOTA

The post Altcoin Analysis: NEO, EOS, LTC and IOTA appeared first on NewsBTC.

Besides NEO, which is now testing key resistance line in the 4HR chart, IOTA, EOS and LTC are trending lower.

Even though I expect LTC to find footing and gain bullish momentum, EOS looks likely to trend lower in the coming days as price action corrects a possible over-valuation following a close above the BB in the weekly chart by week ending January 21.

On the other hand, NEO might also slow down but considering the reaction at the middle BB on January 27, prices might actually close higher as buyers aim for $200.

Let’s dissect these charts:

IOTA Buys

 

IOTA buys
IOTUSD 4HR Chart for January 30, 2018

This higher high as we can see in our entry chart is good news especially if you view price action from the daily chart.

While conservatives should steer clear until after price action break and close above $3, the 3-bar bull reversal pattern in the daily chart-which was formed a couple of days back and confirmed yesterday is a nice addition.

Realize that IOTA prices are inching higher and with this mid range break and close above the resistance trend line, scalpers can go long and aim at $3 in the coming sessions.

NEO Higher Highs

 

NEO at resistance
NEOUSD 4HR Chart for January 30, 2018

We can judge the strength of price action by looking at how prices are moving relative to the upper BB.

While we expect NEO bulls to find resistance at around the 38.2% on our entry chart, any close above that level will likely attract more bull pressure.

Odds are high that prices might close above $155 because NEO bulls actually bounced off the middle BB in the daily chart and are now trending higher as per trend.

If prices are to surge then, it is inevitable for prices to break above this 14 day accumulation whose upper limit is at $155.

LTC Dip and Test Previous Break Out Line

 

LTC correction towards break out line
LTCUSD 4HR Chart for January 30, 2018

Despite our long forecast yesterday, LTC didn’t find enough impetus to move higher following a break above the descending wedge on January 27.

However, this doesn’t mean that our long projection is now null and void. Since this is a break out, we shall be angling for long opportunities especially if buyers find support at previous resistance now support at around $170.

As it is, price action is actually flat even though it appears to be moving up, the range is pretty low and we can even see how the BB has been acting over the past few days.

There was a minor squeeze before that break above the wedge on January 28.

EOS Shorts with Bear Targets at $12

 

EOS sells
EOSUSD 4HR Chart for January 30, 2018

The spinning tops in the daily chart gave way to bears that in turn drove prices lower and close below the ascending wedge our entry chart.

So what’s our EOS game plan? Well, EOS is technically off the tops and is expensive. Price action need to correct this as it has been doing in many occasions.

I recommend shorts with immediate targets at $12.

The post Over a Million Millennials Flock to Robinhood for Crypto appeared first on NewsBTC.

Since the US trading brokerage announced that it would be opening its doors to cryptocurrencies over a million new users have signed up for early access to its trading app. Robinhood is wildly popular with millennials and the average age of its users is 26. Social media went wild with anticipation of the new zero fee crypto trading service however it could be a long wait for those waiting to trade.

A CNBC report claims that over a million new users have subscribed to the waiting list for Robinhood’s new crypto trading service. Just four days ago the firm announced that it would be rolling out commission free trading for 16 of the most popular cryptocurrencies starting in February.

Overwhelming response

The response has been overwhelming and by Monday there were a million new users waiting in line. At the time of writing the number stands at 1,033,550 and rising by the minute. This could increase the company’s overall customer base of 3 million by over 30%.

Initially the service will be available in five states; California, Massachusetts, Missouri, New Hampshire, and Montana. Complete coverage is planned for the middle of the year and the company is looking to expand out of the US. Analysts maintain that there is still a strong demand for crypto despite recent news out of Japan;

“Despite the downturn in price and the fraud in Japan, the interest in the cryptospace remains very high. More and more futures commission merchants are starting to execute and settle the bitcoin futures contracts.”

Exchange bottlenecks

Currently crypto exchanges struggle to handle high demand and heavy trading volume. Binance and Bittrex both suspended new user registrations during the price surge earlier this month and Coinbase simply closed its digital doors altogether. Robinhood appears to be aware of this with its gradual rollout. Co-founder Baiju Bhatt offered a refreshing outlook compared to existing exchanges when he told media;

“Crypto is going to change the world and we want to help drive that.  Today our business transacts 10,000 different symbols in equities and ETFs. We see millions of trades a day. In our brokerage industry there is no excuse for down time. We plan on bringing that mind-set to the crypto space. We don’t view any of that stuff as acceptable.”

He added that the move into the crypto space was a customer acquisition play;

“We are going to break-even on this. But it could dramatically increase user growth.”

It looks like that move has paid off with over a million in the queue already in just four days.

The post Bitcoin Price Technical Analysis for 01/30/2018 – How High Can It Go from Here? appeared first on NewsBTC.

Bitcoin Price Key Highlights

  • Bitcoin price is testing the bottom of its ascending channel on the 1-hour time frame and technical indicators are suggesting a bounce.
  • Applying the Fibonacci extension tool shows how high price could go from here if support holds.
  • A break below the $10,000 level, on the other hand, could set off a longer-term drop.

Bitcoin price is testing a key support zone while technical indicators signal a return in bullish momentum, so it’s time to check the next potential upside targets.

Technical Indicators Signals

The 100 SMA is above the longer-term 200 SMA so the path of least resistance is to the upside. This means that the rally is more likely to resume than to reverse. However, bitcoin price has also moved below the moving averages to suggest a pickup in selling pressure.

Stochastic is still on the move down but is approaching oversold levels. Turning higher could draw buyers back in and allow a climb to the channel resistance near the 76.4% extension and $12,000 level.

The 38.2% extension is located near $11,500 then the 50% extension is at $11,799. The 61.8% extension is at $12,023.60 then the full extension is at $12,748.10. RSI is also in the oversold area to indicate exhaustion among bears and a possible return in bullish pressure.

Market Factors

Bitcoin price remains under pressure from ongoing government crackdowns and the lack of any big catalysts that could allow the longer-term climb to resume. Volume has also been on the low-end as traders remain cautious and wary of future drops.

Meanwhile, the dollar has enjoyed a rally against its peers during the latest trading sessions on expectations of monetary policy tightening across the globe. Apart from shoring up Fed rate hike expectations, this could also keep a lid on business and consumer activity, spurring a bit of risk aversion as well.

The recent hack on Coincheck hasn’t done bitcoin price any favors either. Many analysts have also pointed to bearish continuation signals that suggest that the selloff isn’t over unless significantly positive updates return.

Project Districts, a crypto-startup founded by Blockchain Technology LLC, is making quick inroads as a promising investment option for the cryptocurrency enthusiasts and investors. Built around the cutting-edge blockchain and Virtual Reality technologies, it delivers a system with all necessary tools to convert noble ideas into functional solutions by overcoming the traditional barriers to innovation.

The year 2017 was no less than a roller coaster ride for the global crypto economy, with the value of Bitcoin skyrocketing to astronomical highs. The overall valuation of cryptocurrencies hit a record $800 billion, and ICOs became the order of the day. However, the entire scenario changed drastically by the end of the year. Needless to mention, this sudden shift in market trend has created a certain degree of doubt in the minds of many potential investors.

A number of experts suggest that the long-term success of any blockchain based start-up depends on how efficiently it can identify, strategize and provisioning solutions to the real-world problems. With its base Blockchain framework and competent VR architecture developed with Unreal Engine, Project Districts easily stands apart from all previous implementations of virtual and blockchain technology. This highly ambitious venture is also the first ever synergistic manipulation of blockchain and virtual reality with integrated development options and a limitless ecosystem.

There is no denying in the fact that VR and AR are the two technologies for the future.  In the recent years, several industry heavyweights including Google, Facebook, Alibaba, Qualcomm, and J.P Morgan have made significant investments towards innovation in this sector.  Project Districts is now presenting a viable opportunity for the everyday technology enthusiasts to make an impact.

“At launch, the 3D world users will have at their disposal an immense cache of resources to facilitate innovation of every form and kind. New realities will be shaped, and a faultless self-sufficient ecosystem where the only limitation is imagination, will emerge,” says a senior team member from Project Districts. “It is this thriving miniverse we invite you to be a part of, rest assured that whatever your needs are; be it recreation, business or leisure the Districts 3D world is well suited to accommodate them.”

Project Districts has recently completed their successful first round ICO campaign where they managed to raise funds amounting to almost $8 million. The company is extremely hopeful about their ongoing ICO surpassing its soft cap valued at about100 million 3DCoin (the official transaction medium of the ecosystem).  With adequate resources in hand, the team is now all set to undertake full-time development and implementation of the 3D world.  The beta version of the 3DCoin (official transaction medium of the ecosystem) wallet is now available for download on the web portal of the project. Numerous demo renditions of the Districts 3D world have also been uploaded recently.

This developmental phase is probably the best time for the investors to commit to the Districts project. In addition to numerous early investor perks, they also stand a chance to benefit significantly when 3DCoin goes live on crypto exchanges in the second quarter of 2018. The real world backed value proposition and potentially disruptive nature of Districts clearly indicates substantial demand for the 3Dcoin.

In order to protect the interest of the early investors, the Districts team has recently taken the extra step to curate the 3Dcoin purchasing power of Bitcoin.  This will ensure that the investors will continue to receive 40k 3DCoins for every bitcoin committed to the project, regardless of the volatility of Bitcoin on the market.
