		INDEX COMMITTEE ePROCESS MTG 7 Tue 29 Jan 2019

A	Sun 27 Jan 2019	Notice of Agenda Issues

	Objectives:

	1	Review key project issues for submissions to H2020 Challenge 

	2	Review Overseas Cryptocurrency Research 

	b 2019/01/27 JP Morgan claims Bitcoin mining isn't worth value-of-cryptocurrency 

	"Currently, bitcoin is trading at around the $3,650 level after falling off the 
	$3,700 resistance level which it touched earlier.

	Chinese miners were the exception though as they incurred lower mining 
	costs. 

	On average Chinese miners spent approximately $2,400 to mine one bitcoin:

	The drop in Bitcoin prices from around $6,500 throughout much of October to 
	below $4,000 now has increasingly pushed margins further and further 
	negative for just about every region except low-cost Chinese miners.

	Bitcoin miners in the world's second-largest economy achieved this by directly 
	buying electricity from power generators with excess production. 

	Some of these power generators include aluminum smelters"

	a 2019/01/20 Japanese regulator clarifies stance on Bitcoin, EFTs & Derivatives


	3	Update on "Blockchain" initiatives

	c 2019/01/25 Minister KEENAN announces he is quitting Politics

	b 2018/11/20 Paraguay Lures Blockchains Golden Goose with Cheap Hydro

	Paraguay, home to Jesuit ruins, rainforests and the world's largest dam, will also 
	soon be home to what is being touted as the world's largest cryptocurrency mining 
	center and exchange, which will be powered by the massive, state-owned 
	Itaipu hydroelectric project under a 15-year contract. - please review the web link for 
	further details on the South Korean blockchain agreement with Paraguay

	Completed in 1984, the Itaipu Dam's hydroelectric power plant produced the most 
	energy of any in the world as of 2016, setting a new world record of 103,098,366 
	megawatt hours (MWh), and surpassed the Three Gorges Dam plant in energy 
	production in 2015 and 2016. 

	Of the twenty generator units currently installed, ten generate at 50 Hz for Paraguay 
	and ten generate at 60 Hz for Brazil. Since the output capacity of the Paraguayan 
	generators far exceeds the load in Paraguay, most of their production is exported 
	directly to the Brazilian side

	a 2018/07/05 Minister KEENAN signs 5-yr WoG Blockchain Au$ 1Billion IBM contract
