Even though the cryptocurrency markets have declined a lot recently, the bitcoin wallet Blockchain receives 50,000 new users per day, according to a recent tweet from the company’s CEO and co-founder Peter Smith.

The tweet was a taunt to the American crypto exchange Coinbase:

The police in China have arrested three persons suspected of having stolen bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies worth around $87 million. Chinese police have recently stepped up their effort in fighting cybercrimes relating to cryptocurrency.

One month ago, for example, 20 people in the city of Dalian were arrested. They all worked at an IT company and was suspected of having used crypto mining malware to infect over a million computers during a two year period, thus earning two million dollars, writes Coindesk who refers to the Chinese news agency Xinhua.
