Ce lundi, la plate-forme d’échange de monnaies cryptées a annoncé le lancement de son application, BitFlyer Wallet , pour l’Europe, et depuis le Luxembourg.

Cryptocurrencies in Luxembourg – Current Regulatory Approach | #CryptoCurrency #Europe | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it

From www.siliconluxembourg.lu - July 25, 2018 10:35 AM

Gust MEES's insight:

If there is one question you are dying to ask is: What is the current regulatory situation in Luxembourg where we have on one side licensed crypto-trading platforms like Bitstamp and bitFlyer and on the other side ICO warnings issued by the CSSF? We asked Emmanuel Réveillaud, Rüdiger Sailer and Jeff Braun to give us their thoughts on this “hybrid” situation in Luxembourg.

Towards equal access to digital coins | Competing cryptocurrencies | #Luxembourg #UniLuxembourg #Europe #Equihash | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it

From wwwen.uni.lu - February 8, 2017 11:55 AM

Gust MEES's insight:

Scientists at the Interdisciplinary Centre for Security, Reliability and Trust (SnT) of the University of Luxembourg have developed an important mathematical algorithm called “Equihash”.

Equihash is a core component for the new cryptocurrency Zcash, which offers more privacy and equality than the famous Bitcoin. Zcash came into operation as an experimental technology for a community-driven digital currency in late 2016.

PwC Luxembourg s’ouvre au bitcoin | #Luxembourg #Europe #CryptoCurrency | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it

From paperjam.lu - September 4, 2019 9:10 AM

Gust MEES's insight:

Le 1er octobre prochain, PwC Luxembourg acceptera les paiements en bitcoin de la part de ses clients. Le Big Four en a jaugé les risques et veut apprendre en se confrontant à la réalité du terrain.

Pour maîtriser un domaine particulier, rien de tel que l’immersion. À partir du 1er octobre, PwC Luxembourg acceptera les paiements en bitcoin de la part de ses clients.

Après avoir consacré un événement aux cryptomonnaies en avril dernier , PwC Luxembourg s’est vu en quelque sorte mis au défi par certains clients: «Pourquoi pas vous?». Le cabinet d’audit et de conseil aux entreprises a donc mené une réflexion et pris rapidement une décision.

Cryptocurrencies project receives FNR funding | #Luxembourg #Europe #UNILuxembourg #DigitalLuxembourg #CryptoCurrency | Luxembourg (Europe) | Scoop.it

From wwwen.uni.lu - December 20, 2017 6:27 PM

Gust MEES's insight:

A research project exploring the fight against the criminal misuse of cryptocurrencies has been granted funding by the Luxembourg National Research Fund.

The project will be led by Associate Prof. Silvia Allegrezza for a period of two years.

During this time, the project intends to contribute to the design of a coordinated European Union supervision and enforcement system to combat criminal uses of virtual currencies. Once hailed as an innovative peer-to-peer payment system, cryptocurrencies have increasingly been linked to money-laundering, fraud and trafficking in illicit goods. They pose a particular challenge in that they are designed to conceal the identity of their users, making it difficult to identify perpetrators in criminal investigations.

Since cryptocurrency services operate across national borders through the internet, the research project will focus on enhancing international cooperation and coordination to effectively detect, investigate and sanction crimes perpetrated by means of cryptocurrencies. To this end, the study will take advantage of the strategic position of Luxembourg, both as a dynamic hub for blockchain industry and cryptocurrencies markets.

The Luxembourg team of researchers will be supported by an interdisciplinary penal of eminent experts in the field from Germany, Singapore, the UK and the US.

The FNR funding was awarded through the OPEN 2017 scheme, with €437,000 awarded for the two-year project.
