Juicy crypto news from around the globe *Howdy readizens,* Today, I shall be enumerating some exciting crypto news that I am sure you will find interesting. From LUNO **THE CENTRAL AFRICAN REPUBLIC ADOPTS BITCOIN AS LEGAL CURRENCY** *It was a rosy start to April in the crypto markets, with the price of bitcoin sitting pretty in the $48k area. However, it wasn’t to last, with the majority of leading cryptocurrencies ending the month lower than they started. Will May bring better fortunes?* *It’s certainly not been quick out the blocks. Bitcoin, the largest cryptocurrency by market capitalisation, has largely changed hands for around $38,500 – roughly flat over the past three days. The Ethereum price is also stuck at around $2,800, which is flat over the past 24 hours. Most other cryptocurrencies are also trading slightly lower. With further interest rate announcements set for later in the week, can prices pick up?* **The Central African Republic adopts Bitcoin as legal currency** http://clicks.luno.com/f/a/N8h1MkUO3Ofq9tBQ44Fkng~~/AAAHagA~/RgRkVRSbP0RYaHR0cHM6Ly9kaXNjb3Zlci5sdW5vLmNvbS90aGUtY2VudHJhbC1hZnJpY2FuLXJlcHVibGljLWFkb3B0cy1iaXRjb2luLWFzLWxlZ2FsLWN1cnJlbmN5L1cFc3BjZXVCCmJpm49yYogVj-VSGG9sYWd1bmRhbmllbDQ0QGdtYWlsLmNvbVgEAAAB0g~~ *The Central African Republic has adopted Bitcoin as legal currency, only the second country in the world to do so after El Salvador* **Fort Worth, Texas becomes first US city to mine Bitcoin** http://clicks.luno.com/f/a/Gf5Xv3QTN5mTK3yHCDW41g~~/AAAHagA~/RgRkVRSbP0RRaHR0cHM6Ly9kaXNjb3Zlci5sdW5vLmNvbS9mb3J0LXdvcnRoLXRleGFzLWJlY29tZXMtZmlyc3QtdXMtY2l0eS10by1taW5lLWJpdGNvaW4vVwVzcGNldUIKYmmbj3JiiBWP5VIYb2xhZ3VuZGFuaWVsNDRAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAHS *Fort Worth, Texas has become the first city in the US to mine Bitcoin* **US mortgage firm backs home purchases using crypto** http://clicks.luno.com/f/a/q8XwG6QB26SwMX-eQVtJOA~~/AAAHagA~/RgRkVRSbP0RNaHR0cHM6Ly9kaXNjb3Zlci5sdW5vLmNvbS91cy1tb3J0Z2FnZS1maXJtLWJhY2tzLWhvbWUtcHVyY2hhc2VzLXVzaW5nLWNyeXB0by9XBXNwY2V1QgpiaZuPcmKIFY_lUhhvbGFndW5kYW5pZWw0NEBnbWFpbC5jb21YBAAAAdI~ *A Miami mortgage firm is allowing buyers to purchase homes using crypto* From CoinMarketCap

Don’t worry, the next minting rounds are coming soon as we continue to unlock more groups of people on the Mint List.* *Your Meta-Pebble will cost 1,000 IOTX and can be minted on the* ***Meta-Pebble Mint List Site****. After it’s been minted, you’ll find it in your ioPay wallet. When you receive your NFT it will not yet be activated, that is, it won’t be connected to the MachineFi portal as a working Meta-Pebble. So you are free to buy, sell, or trade Meta-Pebble NFTs however your heart desires!* https://click.mlsend2.com/link/c/YT0xOTQxNjE3NjA4MTA5MzMzNDE1JmM9bjd5OCZlPTAmYj05NjQzMDMzOTgmZD1zM3oybjJ4.nOo9-7kjq0IKJ4lCQyF1RlrsGMlidIS46G9d7RF0J3Q *The Meta-Pebble App will be released in the coming weeks.
