CBDCs news

  • The Bank of Canada is working with its G7 partners on its plans for a digital currency as the country wants to be ready in case another country launches its central bank digital currency (CBDC), Reuters reported, citing Governor Tiff Macklem. “If another country has one and we don’t, that could certainly create some problems,” he was quoted as saying.

  • Cred, a US-based crypto lender, confirmed that it has suspended its operations due to an unspecified investigation. “Cred is cooperating with law enforcement authorities to investigate” “a recent fraudulent incident,” the lender tweeted, adding that “no client personal data or account information was compromised.” They estimate “to provide an update within the next 2 weeks.”

Regulation news

  • The Iranian government allowed using cryptoassets for funding imports “at a time of increased pressure on the country’s normal use of hard currencies,” Iran Daily reported, citing IRNA. “Cryptocurrencies legally mined in Iran will only be exchangeable when they are used to finance imports from other countries,” the report said, adding that “the legal cap for the amount of cryptocurrency for each miner would be determined by the level of the subsidized energy used for mining and based on instructions published by the Ministry of Energy.”
  • Panama’s National Assembly is debating a draft crypto bill put forward by a group of four lawmakers. In an official tweet, the National Assembly stated that the bill proposes to “regulate the use of [cryptoassets] and [crypto-related] transactions in the territory of the Republic of Panama.” One of the bill’s provisions includes the imposition of a 4% flat-rate tax on all crypto transactions conducted on domestic trading platforms.

Coinbase Card is available to customers in nearly 30 countries.

The service is not available in Connecticut, Hawaii, New Hampshire, New York, Texas, Vermont, and Virginia, but the company said they’re planning to support these states “soon.”
  • NEM (XEM) enterprise blockchain has announced a partnership with fiat infrastructure provider Simplex to make XEM purchasable by credit and debit card across Simplex’s global network of partners, including exchanges, brokers, and wallets. It added that the partnership will provide a global on-ramp to XEM, enabling access to Simplex’s large network of exchanges globally, thus broadening the reach of XEM.
  • The Wyoming State Banking Board granted the financial institution Avanti Bank & Trust a bank charter, the type of which, per the announcement, gives Avanti the same powers as national banks in its approved business lines. The approved products include the issuance of a tokenized US dollar called Avit, custody services for digital assets as a “qualified custodian,” application programming interface (API)-based online banking services, where customer deposits must be 100% backed by reserves, and prime services for digital assets. Avanti aims to provide commercial accounts in early 2021 and other accounts with high minimum balance requirements soon after that.

DeFi news

According to the announcement, the project team will set the Aave Governance contract as Lending Pool Manager, and will give the ownership of the LendingPoolAddressProvider contract and of the TokenDistributor contract to the Aave Governance. The team described this move as “the next important step in our decentralization journey.”
