NEW YORK, July 26, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

Bitcoin has been recovering in the past two weeks as its price rose above USD 8,000 on Tuesday for the first time in two months. According to data from CoinMarketCap, the price of bitcoin surged 6.18% to USD 8,216 during Tuesday's trading session. The world's largest cryptocurrency by market value has gained nearly 30% in July, on track for its second-biggest monthly gain this year. The recent rally in cryptocurrency prices is fueled by the optimism that a bitcoin-based exchange-traded fund could be approved by the SEC. San Francisco-based Bitwise Asset Management on Tuesday announced it filed for the first cryptocurrency Index ETF. Chineseinvestors.com Inc. CIIX, Marathon Patent Group Inc.

Marathon Patent Group Inc. MARA is a digital asset technology company that mines cryptocurrencies, with a focus on the blockchain ecosystem and the generation of digital assets. Earlier this year, the Company announced that it has commenced bitcoin mining at its new facility in Quebec. On February 8th, 2018, the Company announced it had purchased 1,400 Bitmain Antminer S9 miners and on February 15th, 2018 the Company announced it had leased 26,700 sq. ft. of data center space in Quebec, Canada. The Company announced the completion of its installation and the commencement of operations which are expected to utilize approximately 2.0 MW and deliver approximately 19 Ph/s of ASIC mining capacity. The Antminer S9s are presently mining Bitcoin but are able to mine other digital assets/cryptocurrency using the SHA256 algorithm.

Riot Blockchain Inc. RIOT is focused on building, supporting, and operating Blockchain technologies, primarily through its cryptocurrency mining operations and other internally developed businesses, as well as through potential joint ventures, acquisitions, and targeted investments in the sector. Recently, the Company announced the beta development of its own private Bitcoin Mining Pool. Mining pools are groups of miners that work as a team and contribute their hashing power to solving computations that secure the blockchain. By pooling resources, miners increase the odds and consistency of receiving block rewards, which are the fees collected as part of Bitcoin's "proof of work" security model. Securing the Bitcoin network is based heavily on the distributed nature of mining power. As mining pools have become more popular, higher percentages of the global hash rate have become centrally managed.

Seven Stars Cloud Group Inc. SSC is aiming to become a next-generation Artificial-Intelligent (AI) & Blockchain-powered, Fintech company. Recently, the Company announced that it has successfully entered into an exclusive agreement with the China Venture Capital Research Institute ("CVCRI") and its subsidiaries.

As such, they have decided to work on an exclusive basis with SSC, given SSC's unique and proprietary technology platforms, fintech ecosystem, and vast global reach. As a result of the strong partnership, SSC will become the sole provider of fintech services for these assets, including but not limited to large-scale commercial real estate and properties held by leading insurance companies, large investment funds, and other fixed income suitable products. SSC will work with CVCRI to develop products for the fixed income asset class and facilitate their sales and trading process on government-designated exchanges within China.
