Huobi Group announced today that it has launched Star Atlas, a new analytics tool designed to monitor on-chain transactions and activities “in real time to identify and flag suspicious or problematic transactions" such as money laundering, fraud, illegal dark web sales, and even price manipulation.

MakerDAO founder Rune Christensen unveiled proposals yesterday that will effectively cause what he believes has become a “completely pointless” Maker Foundation to dissolve over the next few years, allowing the decentralized autonomous organization live up to its name.

That was resolved a day earlier by a reverse auction following a series of votes by MKR token holders.
