Industry-first event to explore global MPC adoption for digital asset security
Executives from Coinbase, Cooley LLP, Marsh, State Street and others join industry leading MPC product and tech providers to explore the game changing benefits of MPC in fintech
San Francisco, March 7, 2022 – Experts in blockchain, finance, the digital asset eco-system and Multi-Party Computation (MPC) will take to the stage during the MPC Digital Asset Security Summit on the 10th of March.
The summit is the first in the industry to provide a comprehensive exploration of how MPC is providing advanced key management and digital asset security, while also introducing new opportunities to expand and innovate digital asset and decentralized financial (DeFi) services.
The event is hosted by the MPC Alliance, with major sponsorship by Meta, DFNS, Sepior, Fireblocks, and Parfin. This summit is the next event in the yearlong MPC Data Privacy & Security Conference series which began on the 26th of October, 2021.
“Digital asset security is emerging as the first killer app for multi-party computation (MPC),” said Frank Wiener, president of the MPC Alliance. “In the past two-years, we’ve seen a groundswell migration to MPC for securing the wallets and digital asset services by several hundred exchanges, custody providers, and institutional investors. The largest banks, exchanges and payment companies in the world are actively embracing MPC as a cornerstone of their digital asset services strategies.”
World renowned cryptographers Ivan Damgård and Yehuda Lindell will provide an informative introduction to exactly how MPC protects the private keys that protect digital assets. MPC eliminates the single points of security vulnerability and failure that resulted in digital asset theft valued at over $3B in 2021 alone.
Transcending technology discussions, industry visionaries from Coinbase, State Street Digital Assets, Marsh, Cooley LLP, Hogan Lovells, Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance will be joining MPC-based wallet and custody solution providers such as Dfns, Fireblocks, Sepior, Parfin and others to discuss and debate a diverse range of topics including: the MPC implications to custody and ownership, myths around MPC vs. HSMs (hardware security modules), how to achieve broad institutional adoption, and the future of MPC in digital assets and beyond.
MPC allows for multiple parties to compute a function using each other’s inputs while keeping the data of each contribution truly private. This event will highlight how this can be used to further the security of Digital Assets like cryptocurrencies, tokens, CBDC, NFTs that rely on agile and sustainable key security.
“Our first event in October was a great success and we’re keen to build on that momentum,” said Mr. Wiener. “The MPC Digital Asset Summit in March is the first in our series of application specific deep dives into the role and benefits that MPC offers. Be sure to plan for the MPC Data Privacy Summit on May 26th, for a similar deep dive into how MPC unleashes advancements in advertising, collaboration, machine learning, and so much more – all while maintaining unprecedented levels of data privacy.”

GoMining Reveals Cutting-Edge North NFT Collection

The company’s NFT collections provide daily bitcoin rewards to holders, with their substantial fleet of real equipment installed across the globe. Continuing their successful streak after the highly acclaimed East NFT Collection, this latest release marks the next installment in a series of crypto art devoted to various regions. GoMining’s fresh North NFT Collection draws inspiration from three key references: the critical role of low temperatures in mining device operations, the restraint and resilience found in northern regions, and the empowering force driving their endeavors. These references served as the foundation for the collection’s captivating images, reflecting the core principles behind GoMining’s innovative approach to bitcoin mining.
GoMining’s new NFT series is issued on the Binance Smart Chain, utilizing the BEP-20 standard for seamless integration and accessibility. With an impressive energy efficiency rating of 35 W/TH, these NFTs ensure the quickest payback period for holders. Moreover, the NFTs offer a diverse range of computing power options, spanning from 1 to 128 TH/s, accommodating various mining requirements and preferences.
In just over two years, GoMining has achieved remarkable growth. The platform has distributed more than 2,000 BTC to holders, issued 20,000 NFTs, and elevated its overall hash power from 100,000 TH/s to an astounding 2,359,877 TH/s. This exponential progress showcases the project’s resounding success and commitment to innovation in the cryptocurrency and NFT space.
As per GoMining’s CEO Mark Zalan, the company is doing everything to offer a broad variety of options to its holders, proving its sustainability and transparent approach. “We’ve been in operation for over two years providing consistent rewards for our holders daily. All of our efforts are aimed at showing tangible infrastructure behind the product – in this case real equipment with data centers in different regions like Norway.”
GoMining remains dedicated to introducing updated versions of its NFTs, originally crafted to provide easier access to bitcoin mining. All NFT collections, such as the renowned collaboration with MMA star Khabib Nurmagomedov, combine visually stunning designs with real equipment-generated computing power, offering continuous mining rewards to their owners.

New study reveals the cryptocoins that the US wants to sell the most
A new study has revealed the cryptocoins Americans want to sell the most, with Bitcoin taking the top spot.
The research was conducted by crypto gambling experts at cryptogambling.tv, who analyzed Google Trends data to establish the cryptocurrencies the US wants to sell the most out of the 24 largest cryptocurrencies by market cap, giving an average weekly search volume for the interest in selling each cryptocoin.
The study revealed that Bitcoin has the highest number of searches from Americans looking to sell this cryptocurrency. Searches to ‘sell bitcoin’ were the highest at the end of July in the United States and worldwide.
Many factors might sway someone to sell their Bitcoin, with the main reason being the current financial and economic strain many countries in the world are facing, prompting people to tap out and cut their losses. Last year the price of the cryptocoin dropped below $16,000, which highlights its downfall tremendously, and with Bitcoin’s value being based purely on speculation, it can be challenging for those who don’t know whether or not to stick with it.
Ethereum is the second cryptocoin Americans want to sell the most, with searches for ‘sell Ethereum’ being the highest in September worldwide. Although the currency is known for owning around 20% of the global crypto market, those wanting to invest tend to agree that it is one of the safest long-term coins. The current price of Ethereum is $1,458, and with the cryptocoin shifting its process from PoW to PoS, it’s predicted its supply may reduce.
XRP is the third cryptocoin Americans want to sell the most, as it is predicted that its price will be near $0.198 by the end of this year. XRP runs by RippleNet and is a low-cost coin which is excellent for those who want to begin investing; however, due to the current lawsuit proceedings with the SEC, there is a significant decrease in interest for the currency, which has undoubtedly urged investors to act fast and sell.
The fourth cryptocoin Americans want to sell the most is Dogecoin, which, although it has remained one of the top cryptocurrencies in the industry, is still not a solid investment for many investors. The coin rose over 15,000% over 2021, and for a cryptocoin which was created as a joke when it first began, it has truly exceeded expectations. Many avoid investing in Dogecoin due to its price volatility, no supply limit, and not being as widely accepted as other competing coins; these are reasons why many also want to sell.
Shiba Inu is the fifth cryptocoin that Americans are looking to sell, and while the coin is top-rated, it is advised that those looking to invest should not use it as a long-term investment. The coin is down almost 92% since 2021, but many investors hope it will still go up in time as it is currently at over 589 trillion.
An expert at cryptogambling.tv commented: “The cryptocurrency market is forever fluctuating, and with the increase in economic stress worldwide, it can be an uncertain and nerve-racking time for those hoping to make sound investments in the crypto world.
“This study offers an interesting insight into which cryptocoins Americans currently want to sell, with Bitcoin being the most popular to sell.”
