Cryptocurrency around the world: divide et impera

If you take a look at Bitcoin’s or other cryptocurrencies’ price in different countries, you will see that it varies a lot from one to another. How come? Let’s try to figure out! For now, in a bipolar world the humanity is divided into two camps, some believe that the Blockchain Era is about to come and this technology is the future. For others, cryptocurrency is a way to quickly raise some cash by selling it at a higher price on having bought for nearly nothing. Some are buying crypto because of its potential everyday use, and some just don’t care at all. Anyway, now cryptocurrency has a solid market position as other material assets. And as any other currency, it has its own ups and downs. But if the vitality of the exchange rate in general is quite understandable, the cost difference of the cryptocurrencies varying from country to country causes further questions.

The AR app brings a stolen collection back to the museum!

The scope of the augmented reality tech application continues to be expanded as well as the number of apps and its users. There are training, teaching, presenting apps and even the apps returning stolen paintings to their frames.

A company, called Cuseum has presented the app visualizing artworks stolen from the Isabella Stewart Gardner museum on March 18, 1990 when two men, disguised as police officers, got the access to the exposition claiming to have received “a report of a disturbance”. That’s how 13 paintings, estimated to be worth around $500 million, were recklessly cut out from their frames and vanished without a trace. Despite the many investigations conducted since then, the crime came to be known as one of the biggest heists in art history is yet to be solved.
