According to a CNBC report, customers of some U.S. banks would soon be able to purchase #Bitcoin directly from banks following a partnership between the NYDIG and fintech giant Fidelity National Information Services.

Hundreds of Banks have already enrolled in the program. The growing popularity of Bitcoin and crypto-assets as a whole is being considered the primary reason behind this move.
NYDIG is discussions with some of the biggest U.S. banks, along with smaller institutions like Suncrest.

“What we’re doing is making it simple for everyday Americans and corporations to be able to buy bitcoin through their existing bank relationships,” said Patrick Sells, head of bank solutions at NYDIG.

The development is quite ironic considering the fact that what was created to steer people away from banks is now being leveraged to draw people towards it.

So, the question remains, would you buy #Bitcoin from a bank?

Hi Coinsbit Team 🐯 We're pleased to announce we have reduced our KYC processing time from 6-7 days to 2-4 hours. For all the users who have already submitted their KYC before today will still be in the old KYC processing pipeline which will take 3-4 days to process.

👉🏽 We can't process all the previous KYCs in bulk because we have added new fields and steps with the new KYC process. We will be optimizing the KYC process to be reduced to 30 seconds in the coming few days.

👉🏽 Please note: we have added a new step of bank verification so we can verify you quicker. You will also be able to do deposits to and from this nominated bank account once we bring out the INR on/off ramp.

👉🏽 Please note: the KYC system is upgraded for INDIAN ID holders only. For INTL users, the KYC processing time is still 24hrs+ and we will be reducing this shortly.

👉🏽 We appreciate your patience and we are back on track to launch Coinsbit India! Please stay tuned as we share our exciting plans with you soon!

The Indian crypto community finds a fresh ray of hope as former Finance Secretary Subhash Chandra Garg, says that the government should not ban cryptocurrencies but regulate them instead.

Garg headed the inter ministerial committee (IMC) that drafted the Crypto ban Bill.

"I don’t think we still have full clarity and understanding about how to regulate cryptocurrencies, control cryptocurrencies but allow the crypto assets, encourage the crypto services," he said at a virtual event organised by industry body Assocham.

We hope the government takes this comment into consideration before making any significant moves.

Dogecoin continues to make headlines every week thanks to its volatility, and the bullish tweets from Elon Musk.

After raising concerns about Bitcoin's energy consumption, the Tesla CEO now claims he is working with #Dogecoin developers.

Musk said he is “Working with Doge devs to improve system transaction efficiency. Potentially promising."

The tweet came a day after Tesla stopped accepting payments in #bitcoin. All factors point to the fact Tesla could be gearing up to start accepting #DOGE.

Dogecoin prices spiked following Elon's tweet. The impact on prices is huge. Doge has introduced massive volatility in the market over the past month.

The cryptocurrency market is known to be highly volatile in comparison to the traditional market. Several factors come into play when trying to understand why the market is so volatile. It is vital to understand what leads to such volatility to be able to best predict it.

👉 Firstly, crypto-assets lack intrinsic value, meaning most of these assets aren't backed by a physical commodity or currency. Its value is based on faith in an idea.
Most Crypto assets have a fixed supply, as such, prices move based on the number of buyers available.

👉 Cryptocurrencies are an emerging market and is relatively small in comparison to the rest. The smaller market size results in greater impact on prices.
Speculation is also known to drive prices and a small announcement or rumour impacts heavily on price.

👉 The lack of regulatory oversight also leads to market manipulation that causes price swings. This discourages institutional involvement, the lack of which results in volatility.
Institutional presence would bring in greater potential for stability, efficiency, and investment.

👉 The market is still at an early stage of development. As such, any new development often moves the market.
Several hurdles like scalability are still being explored, and this also leads to pressure on crypto prices.

👉 Media plays a significant role since the market is highly speculative and small in size. Investors are always looking out for news (some even baseless) that could impact the market.
This often results in a race to buy and sell a particular asset, impacting its price.

👉 All these factors combined result in the market experiencing huge price movements. However, the industry has come a long way and is becoming more stable as the market expands.

The crash over the past two days wiped off approximately $350 billion from the market.

Analysts have blamed it on China's 18th May announcement. This added up with Elon Musk's tweet that Tesla would not be accepting Bitcoin as payment.

“Whatever caused the initial market-wide crash – probably a lot of Elon with some China and other vague regulatory news thrown in, or maybe it’s a “natural correction” – it happened, and liquidations did a lot of work to make the downturn more intense,” said Sam Trabucco.

Analysts have come forward to state that volatility is embedded in the cryptocurrency market and this collapse was rather a healthy correction that would allow new investors to add crypto to their portfolio.

While some investors will back out, several is expected to buy this dip.

The DeFi space is still a nascent stage and the massive attention this emerging market has received has made it attractive for criminals.

Binance Smart Chain DeFi protocol Pancake Bunny recently fell victim to a $200 million flash loan attack.

So what happened?

👉🏽The attacker used PanCakeSwap to borrow BNB.
👉🏽The attacker manipulated the price of USDT/BNB and BUNNY/BNB using the flash loan.
👉🏽The attacker dumped all the BUNNY tokens resulting in a crash.
👉🏽The attacker then paid off the BNB flash loan.

Flash loan attacks are quite common in the DeFi space and project teams are working every day to fix the loopholes that help devise these attacks.

The attacks do not mean DeFi is a lost cause, in fact, these point out the flaws in the system so it can be patched.
