    [PSA] Non-genuine Trezor One devices spotted. Be careful, buy only from Trezor Shop or authorized resellers.

    Posted: 19 Nov 2018 08:21 AM PST

    There were many Trezor clones released over the years of our activity. These clones try to get as close as they can to imitate the original Trezor device along with its packaging. In recent weeks, a one-to-one copy of Trezor One was discovered. A fake Trezor device, manufactured by a different, unknown vendor, is a strong reason for you to pay extra attention to the provided secure elements.

    Of course, the simplest way to procure your genuine Trezor One is to buy it only at the official Trezor shop, official Amazon shop or from official resellers. You should be very cautious when buying on other marketplaces, such as eBay, Taobao, AliExpress, unknown Amazon resellers or other places.

    Click on "Read More" for detailed information on how to spot a fake Trezor One.

    Bloomberg on the OKex Bitcoin Cash (BCH) contract liquidations - Furious Traders Slam Crypto Exchange for Fiddling With Contracts

    Posted: 19 Nov 2018 08:34 AM PST

    Bloomberg is reporting that:

    • 'OKEx is losing credibility': trader who took a $700,000 hit
    • Exchange says it acted to protect clients from volatility

    An unorthodox move by one of the world's biggest cryptocurrency platforms to change the terms on $135 million of derivative contracts has infuriated traders and saddled some of them with losses, underscoring the risks of using unregulated virtual currency exchanges.

    The episode at Hong Kong-based OKEx, which claims to handle more than $1 billion of crypto trades daily, involved futures on Bitcoin Cash, the virtual currency that split into two last week. In a decision that traders described as unusual if not unprecedented, OKEx forced the early settlement of its Bitcoin Cash contracts without warning on Nov. 14, just as prices were tumbling.

    whitepaper https://www.lxdx.co/resources/lxdx-whitepaper.pdf

    p9: "This daily drawing is structured such that only 50% of days result in a payout. Metaphorically, a coin is tossed daily. If it comes up heads, the drawing takes place and 5% of all tokens collected are awarded to a randomly chosen user. If the coin toss comes up tails, the tokens roll into the next day's pool. Both the drawing and "coin toss" will be performed by audited RNG algorithms on publicly available information to demonstrate provable fairness."
