Time limit
The girl dressed up in school uniform solved (2x2) Rubik's cube blindfolded while reciting Vairamuthu's poems in 2 minutes 7 seconds.
Talent of the budding genius
Talking about the talent of the budding genius, Charles, Sarah's father told that at a very young age she started solving aptitude questions and after which they took her for proper training and classes.
"She has already made a world record. Now she is striving for Guinness World Record. Sarah was excellent in problem-solving and aptitude questions. After realizing, we nurtured her and provided proper training to her. She can solve multiple kinds of cubes and not just one," he said.
Rubik's Cube
With her sparkling eyes and a wide smile on her face, Sarah said she is "happy to be a part of such an event."
The Rubik's Cube originally called the "Magic Cube" is a 3-D mechanical twisty puzzle invented and licensed by Hungarian sculptor and professor of architecture Erno Rubik in 1974.
Puzzle
In a classic 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube, each of the six faces is covered by nine stickers, traditionally white, red, blue, orange, green, and yellow. The structure of the cubelets enables each face to turn independently, mixing up the colours.
For the puzzle to be solved, each face must be returned to consisting of one colour.
On Friday, the People’s Bank of China told businesses involved with cryptocurrencies to correct any improper actions and asked investors to be wary of virtual currencies. Earlier this month, watchdogs in Shanghai issued notices calling for a cleanup of companies involved in crypto trading, while one in Beijing warned against illegal exchange operations.
There are plenty of other possible explanations for the drop. Traders are blaming low volumes and citing attractive returns from traditional assets, eToro U.K. market analyst Adam Vettese wrote in a note Friday. Smaller miners are also getting squeezed out by the falling price, causing further selling toward the break-even level of around $5,600 to $6,400, Vijay Ayyar, Singapore-based head of business development at crypto exchange Luno, said Monday.
“We’re seeing what is called miner capitulation and that has indicated previous large drops in the price of Bitcoin," he said. “At this time, the cost of production could be indicated to be in the $6,000 range and hence we’ve seen the price dip to that range last week."
Bitcoin is still up substantially in 2019 -- it ended last year at $3,674. After a meteoric rise from April to June, when it soared above $13,000, it lost momentum and has been gradually dropping since.
