NEW YORK, August 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --

The price of Bitcoin reached a new record high of $4,483.55 early yesterday morning, before giving back gains and dipping below $4,000. According to a report by CNBC, the currency's price on Tuesday morning brought the valuation of bitcoin very close to market caps of major technology stocks on the S&P 500 such as Netflix, which has a market cap of about $73 billion. CNBC indicates that analysts are divided on the direction of bitcoin's price. Standpoint Research's Ronnie Moas has raised the price target for the currency, projecting the value of bitcoin to reach $7,500 in 2018. Goldman Sachs analysts have projected a possible short-term rise followed by a large correction. ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. (OTC: CIIX), Bitcoin Capital Corp.

Bitcoin's official news, revealed that the protocol firm Blockstream just announced their plan to transmit bitcoin from space across the world using satellite technology. Blockstream CEO, Adam Back talked about how the technology would help people across the globe. He said, "Today's launch of Blockstream Satellite gives even more people on the planet the choice to participate in Bitcoin. With more users accessing the Bitcoin blockchain with the free broadcast from Blockstream Satellite, we expect the global reach to drive more adoption and use cases for Bitcoin, while strengthening the overall robustness of the network."

ChineseInvestors.com, Inc. (OTCQB: CIIX) at the beginning of this week announced the launch of its cryptocurrency education and trading subscription service on Chinesefn.com, the Company's dynamic financial website that provides real-time market commentary, analysis, and educational related services to Chinese-speaking investors. The new subscription service will cover timely news and will provide analysis regarding all aspects of the emerging digital currency world, including coverage of cryptocurrencies including bitcoin and ethereum, industry trends, price movement, sector related stocks and ETFs, etc.

Cryptocurrency has attracted a lot of attention in recent years from the creation of bitcoin, the world's first decentralized digital currency, to blockchain technology, which allows cryptocurrency to transfer value across the globe without resorting to traditional intermediaries such as banks. The ability to transfer value solely through software is a huge breakthrough. The cryptocurrency market has also created new phenomena such as currency mining, trading, tender, and storage. At the same time, it has significantly impacted industries such as cybersecurity, cloud computing and storage, and semiconductors.  

"Cryptocurrencies like bitcoin have become a global phenomenon," says Warren Wang, Founder and CEO of CIIX. "Since January 2015, the price of Bitcoin has increased 500% from $200 to $1,000 in January 2017, and just spiked to a record high over $4,000 as US-North Korea tensions escalated. Likewise, ethereum has surged from less than $10 to more than $300 this year.

With the use and trading of cryptocurrencies on the rise in Asia, it appears that a much wider adoption of digital assets may be right around the corner. With an estimated 85% market share, China is one of the dominant players controlling bitcoin volume, along with Japan (which recently legalized bitcoin as a form of payment) and the United States. While many see the unique opportunity that cryptocurrency poses for investors and desire to capitalize on this market opportunity, they may not have a full understanding of the concept of digital currency or how the system works. CIIX intends to provide fundamental knowledge to Chinese speaking newcomers to cryptocurrency, including straightforward explanations of the basics of cryptocurrency, how to buy it and straightforward trading guidelines. For those with cryptocurrency experience, the Company will provide more detailed information regarding currency mining, blockchain technology, stock trends and ETFs. Through its innovative cryptocurrency education and trading subscription service, the Company endeavors to be the leading Chinese educational site providing up-to-date news and information on digital currencies."
