THIS WEEK'S CRYPTO CALENDAR.
Important events to watch in the week ahead.
11th March - Monthly BTT token airdrop for TRX holders
Beginning from February 2019, on the 11th of every month TRX token holders on Binance are airdropped Bittorrent token (BTT) directly into their exchange accounts. The amount airdropped increases year-on-year and is designed to promote the Bittorrent token ecosystem by utilizing the support of an already active token community. The upcoming drop has failed to create much buying support for TRX, however, potentially because the price of BTT has slide over 35% since the 6th of February.
13th-14th March - Token 2049 Hong Kong
On Wednesday and Thursday one of Asia’s premier crypto events take place, featuring an impressive list of speakers discussing some of the industry’s most important topics. The schedule include Gabor Gubacs, director of digital asset strategy at VanEck discussing crypto’s regulatory landscape and Jun Li, founder of the Ontology platform discussing the future of blockchain interoperability and scalability.
13th March - CBOE XBT expiration date
This Wednesday the latest round of CBOE XBT (XBTH19) futures ends. The nature of futures contracts means they need to be settled on a set, predefined date, based on a contract. All CBOE contracts will have to be traded, or settled, before this date. There is generally a fall in the trading volume of futures around expiration dates, that coincides with a rise in volatility and potential short/long squeezing.
