Specific or not (yes many different types of institutions can access these markets), hedge funds are known for taking highly leveraged bets with this overnight cash. There is a huge market for sponsored repo trades.
Hedge funds were most certainly a part of this problem, and were bailed out.
I am surprised to hear that the NYDFS considers a service that facilitates the sale of cash equivalents for cryptocurrency exempt from licensing. Would you mind sharing more?
Cool product! Can you elaborate on the regulatory framework you guys operate under? I am surprised to see so little data collection for such high volumes (up to $10,000 / day). Do you guys have a BitLicense? Or any MT licenses for the other 49 states?
FWIW, I looked through the APIs and while I did see mechanisms for rejecting phone calls and faxes, I did not see a way to block specific numbers from sending you SMS. Not that it matters, free inbound more or less solves the problem. Thanks again.
The novel Wuhan coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) has been sequenced, and the virus shares substantial similarity with SARS-CoV. Here, using a computational model of the spike protein (S-protein) of SARS-CoV-2 interacting with the human ACE2 receptor, we make use of the world's most powerful supercomputer, SUMMIT, to enact an ensemble docking virtual high-throughput screening campaign and identify small-molecules which bind to either the isolated Viral S-protein at its host receptor region or to the S protein-human ACE2 interface. We hypothesize the identified small-molecules may be repurposed to limit viral recognition of host cells and/or disrupt host-virus interactions. A ranked list of compounds is given that can be tested experimentally
Additional snippet:
Here we combine restrained temperature replica-exchangemolecular dynamics (restrained T-REMD) simulations with virtual high-throughput screening in an ensemble docking campaign to identify well-characterized drugs, metabolites, and/or natural products that may disrupt S-protein:ACE2 receptor interface stability or the ability of the S-protein to recognize the ACE2 receptor. From this ensemble docking campaign,we provide a ranking of the predicted binding affinities ofover 8000 drugs, metabolites, and natural products (and their isomers)with regards to the COVID-19 S-protein and the S-protein:ACE2 receptor. Further, we highlight seven of our top ranked compounds, which are currently available and have had either regulatory approval as drugs or have had multiple prior studies which indicating high-potential for therapeuticuse
What sort of censorship are you referring to? If taproot-schnorr is deployed and adopted, cooperative channel operations will look exactly like normal single-sig transactions. As for routing censorship, if one node fails to route for me, I can open a channel with a different node and route around them.
You can't use gold online in an trust-minimized way. One counterexample are industries with high chargeback/fraud rates. Bitcoin is perfect for merchants exposed to friendly fraud, it completely removes the leverage customers have over them.
This should come as no surprise, but not for the reasons the author thinks.
>I could list 50 different reasons why but for us it boils down to two main facts. A very small percentage of our customers posses Bitcoin in a hot wallet ready to transfer and secondly, Bitcoin can be slow and expensive for small payments.
The main reason is that no one needs to use Bitcoin to pay for their locksmithing. Bitcoin is not your neighborhood Visa competitor. Bitcoin is your last resort payment method/store of value--for when you don't have access to traditional financial infrastructure (for whatever reason). This article is a signal only that people are not ideologically using Bitcoin as a payment (which is a good thing, I don't care to store payments on my node that would be better served by Visa).
