>>> IBM Unveils Joint Blockchain Company with the World’s Largest Shipper
Blockchain News
January 17, 2018
https://www.ccn.com/ibm-unveils-joint-blockchain-company-worlds-largest-shipper/
Early blockchain tech mover IBM and Danish shipping giant Maersk have announced a joint venture to digitize and enhance global trade efficiency and security using blockchain technology.
One of the world’s oldest industries that has long been notoriously averse to adopt modern technologies is getting a blockchain revamp.
In an announcement yesterday, IBM and A.P Moller – Maersk confirmed their intent to launch a new as-yet-unnamed company that will specifically develop blockchain technology built on open standards ‘designed for use by the entire global shipping ecosystem.’ The new company will be headquartered in New York.
Supply trade chains and logistics are two particular industries ripe for disruption and are certain to instantly benefit from adopting blockchain technology. An immutable, shared ledger with multiple participants including suppliers, shippers, port operators and export/import authorities will help companies continuously track and monitor shipments in real-time. Decades of operational inefficiency due to manual processes and breakages leading to billions in losses could be avoided. The blockchain will enable end-to-end supply chain visibility for all participants with data updated in real-time through a paperless system powered by smart contracts.
Maersk will implement and deploy IBM’s blockchain software – the Hyperledger Fabric – across its fleet, as well as use other cloud technologies in artificial intelligence and IoT to track shipments.
Maersk’s chief commercial officer Vincent Clerc stated:
“The potential from offering a neutral, open digital platform for safe and easy ways of exchanging information is huge, and all players across the supply chain stand to benefit.”
Development of the new joint-company comes amid an ongoing partnership between IBM and Maersk that began in early 2017. The blockchain, which includes a network of freight forwarders, ocean carriers and ports, will support a supply chain that set out to track 10 million containers by the end of the year. IBM estimates annual savings of approximately $38 billion among shipping carriers digitizing their processes using blockchain technology.
The endeavor has proved successful, creating solutions in pilots tested by the likes of Netherlands’ customs authority, the US Customs and Borders Protection, the Singaporean and Peruvian customs authorities as well as industry giants like General Motors and Procter and Gamble for supply chain management.
Awaiting the regulator’s green light, real-world implementation of the joint venture’s solutions are ‘expected to be available within six months,’ IBM added.

#Bitcoin #CryptoCurrency #Blockchain Breaking news: NBA’s Dallas Mavericks Will Accept Bitcoin For Tickets, Mark Cuban Promises https://cointelegraph.com/news/nbas-dallas-mavericks-will-accept-bitcoin-for-tickets-mark-cuban-promises
CuriousWon, >> KIN <<
I was wondering where you get charts for these smaller cryptos? The site I use only has the biggest 10 players. Thanks.
Well, looks like near term support is broken for most of the bigger cryptos. Next support looks like 150 for Litecoin, 10,000 for Bitcoin, and for Ethereum a band from 900-1000, and then 800. Monero held up better and still above its near term support of 300. Dash broke down and is entering its support band of 600-800.
With support levels having failed, the charts look shaky, but the big correction had to happen eventually after such big moves. Next is finding new support and then a sideways consolidation. The Wild West..
>>> JioCoin – India’s Biggest Conglomerate to Launch its Own Cryptocurrency
Altcoin News
January 16, 2018
https://www.ccn.com/jiocoin-indias-biggest-conglomerate-launch-cryptocurrency/
Reliance Industries, India’s biggest and most valuable conglomerate, is diving into blockchain development that will also see the company create its own cryptocurrency, JioCoin, through its telecom subsidiary Reliance Jio Infocomm.
According to a regional report by LiveMint, Indian telecom giant Jio Infocomm is establishing an initiative dubbed the ‘JioCoin project’ that will see a 50-member team of professionals working on blockchain technology to develop applications for supply chain management logistics as well as building smart contracts. The team will reportedly be led by Akash Ambani, the eldest son of Mukesh Ambani who is the managing director of Reliance Industries. One of the world’s richest men, Mukesh Ambani is worth an estimated $40.1 billion with a 44.7% stake in the conglomerate.
The blockchain development team – to consist of professionals with an average age of 25 years – will also work toward developing its own cryptocurrency called Jiocoin.
Speaking to the publication, an anonymous insider familiar with the developments outlined potential use cases for the technology, stating:
“One (application) is cryptocurrency. We can deploy smart contracts. It can be used in supply chain management logistics. Loyalty points could altogether be based on JioCoin.”
Although details remain scarce, it’s easy to spot reasons for Reliance Jio’s foray into developing its cryptocurrency. The company has a massive network of entertainment offerings including Jio Phones, JioTV, JioNet WiFi, Jio Cinema, Jio Music and notably, Jio Money. With Jio Money, Reliance Jio has developed its own payment gateway and wallet that predictably brings a wide range of discounts on purchases in food, travel, apparels and more. With its own cryptocurrency, Reliance Jio could conceivably issue loyalty points in cryptocurrency that can be used for purchases throughout the Jio ecosystem.
While India’s highly competitive mobile telephony market already sees some of the lowest tariffs in the world, the recently-launched Reliance Jio – with a 4G network covering the entire country – has heavily disrupted the sector with significantly discounted data usage rates and freebies to become the country’s fourth-largest telecom operator. A little over a year since it’s launch in December 2016, Reliance JIO now has over 160 million subscribers in the world’s second largest mobile subscriber market (an estimated 1.1 billion users), after China.

>>> Ethereum Alumni and Cardano Creator Predicts a Cryptocurrency Market Crash
Altcoin News
January 09, 2018
https://www.ccn.com/cardano-developer-portends-a-cryptocurrency-market-crash/
The creator of cardano portends that the cryptocurrency markets will undergo a serious correction that will help weed out projects with poor fundamentals.
The 2017 market run-up injected hundreds of billions of dollars worth of capital into the cryptocurrency ecosystem, but many industry observers believe that the rally has been indiscriminate and could trigger a crash as investors gradually recognize that many projects have poor fundamentals.
“My personal opinion is that we’re going to see a consolidation after a crash,” ethereum co-founder Charles Hoskinson told CNBC in an interview Friday.
Hoskinson served as chief executive of the ethereum project during its early stages in late 2013 and early 2014. At present, he heads blockchain research firm IOHK, which is best known for its development of Cardano, which currently ranks as the fifth-largest cryptocurrency by market cap.
The developer said that he believes the sheer number of cryptocurrencies with poor fundamentals makes a crash inevitable, as many of these projects are wildly-overvalued and ultimately unsustainable.
The latest punching bag for analysts who share this opinion has been Dentacoin, a self-described “blockchain solution for the global dental industry” that currently boasts a market cap of $1.5 billion.
“What’s going to occur is a lot of these ventures that don’t have strong fundamentals, don’t have good tech, or just unrealistic projects, they will eventually run into some major wall they can’t quite overcome,” Hoskinson said. “They will fracture up and you will see a lot of them are certain to fail.”
This, however, could not be realized for some time, as many projects raised large amounts of capital through initial coin offerings (ICOs).
Eventually, though, Hoskinson predicts that the market will undergo a crash that will consolidate capital in projects with stronger fundamentals, strengthening the industry over the long-term.
Early Ethereum Advisor Still Bullish on Near-Term Outlook
Early ethereum advisor Steven Nerayoff, however, foresees a much brighter near-term outlook for the cryptocurrency markets.
“The entire space is increasing. There is huge interest by the public and there are more areas in which the public can invest, even in bitcoin, so you could just see an expansion in the entire space,” Nerayoff told CNBC on Monday.
Nerayoff, who describes himself as the “architect” of the Ethereum ICO, predicted that the ethereum price could triple over the next year, which may or may not lead to the long-anticipated “flippening,” after which ethereum would rank as the most valuable cryptocurrency.

>>> $6 Billion Oil-Backed Cryptocurrency: Venezuela’s President Orders Issue of 100 Million Petros
Altcoin News
January 08, 2018
https://www.ccn.com/6-billion-oil-backed-cryptocurrency-venezuelas-president-orders-issue-100-million-petros/
Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro has announced the issuance of 100 million petros, the state’s proposed upcoming national cryptocurrency backed by its oil reserves, the world’s largest by any country.
Venezuela’s national cryptocurrency, the petro, will soon see its first issuance after Maduro’s mandate to issue 100 million units of the digital tokens. Each petro will be directly valued to a single barrel of oil, reports the El Nuevo Herald. At an average of just under $60 per barrel at the time of his announcement, the total value of 100 million petros would be just under $6 billion.
In a state television address, Maduro stated:
I have ordered the emission of 100 million petros with the legal sustenance of Venezuela’s certified and legalized oil wealth. Every petro will be equal in value to Venezuela’s oil barrel.
Following his announcement last week, Venezuela’s first ever national meeting of petro ‘miners’ will convene on January 14, a date when the petro is formally presented. The issuance of the 100 million petros will take place via ‘virtual currency exchange houses that are currently in a trial period’ according to the report.
As reported by CCN in December, Maduro first announced the cryptocurrency as a means to evade and circumvent economic sanctions and the “financial blockade” imposed by the U.S. president Trump’s administration. In August, the US government enforced crippling financial sanctions that have proved a blockade in Venezuela’s access to international banks and global finance.
The petro will also be backed by other commodity reserves like gold and diamonds, Maduro added. The announcement by the Venezuelan leader was met with criticism by his political opponents who dismissed the endeavor as a fanciful idea at a time when Venezuela continues to suffer hyperinflation amid severe food shortages and a deepening economic recession.
That hasn’t stopped Maduro from bullishly announcing the superintendence of the petro in the days before Christmas 2017 by setting up a sperate body to ‘govern’ the cryptocurrency and its transactions.

>>> Kodak and WENN Digital Partner to Launch Major Blockchain Initiative and Cryptocurrency
KODAKOne platform and KODAKCoin cryptocurrency give photographers a new revenue stream and a secure platform for protecting their work
https://www.kodak.com/US/en/corp/Press_center/KODAK_and_WENN_Digital_Partner_to_Launch_Major_Blockchain_Initiative_and_Cryptocurrency/default.htm
Rochester, NY
January 09, 2018
Today Kodak and WENN Digital, in a licensing partnership, announced the launch of the KODAKOne image rights management platform and KODAKCoin, a photo-centric cryptocurrency to empower photographers and agencies to take greater control in image rights management.
Utilizing blockchain technology, the KODAKOne platform will create an encrypted, digital ledger of rights ownership for photographers to register both new and archive work that they can then license within the platform. With KODAKCoin, participating photographers are invited to take part in a new economy for photography, receive payment for licensing their work immediately upon sale, and for both professional and amateur photographers, sell their work confidently on a secure blockchain platform. KODAKOne platform provides continual web crawling in order to monitor and protect the IP of the images registered in the KODAKOne system. Where unlicensed usage of images is detected, the KODAKOne platform can efficiently manage the post-licensing process in order to reward photographers.
“For many in the tech industry, ‘blockchain’ and ‘cryptocurrency’ are hot buzzwords, but for photographers who’ve long struggled to assert control over their work and how it’s used, these buzzwords are the keys to solving what felt like an unsolvable problem,” said Kodak CEO Jeff Clarke. “Kodak has always sought to democratize photography and make licensing fair to artists. These technologies give the photography community an innovative and easy way to do just that.”
“Engaging with a new platform, it is critical photographers know their work and their income is handled securely and with trust, which is exactly what we did with KODAKCoin,” said WENN Digital CEO Jan Denecke. “Subject to the highest standards of compliance, KODAKCoin is all about paying photographers fairly and giving them an opportunity to get in on the ground floor of a new economy tailored for them, with secure asset rights management built right in.”
The initial coin offering will open on January 31, 2018 and is open to accredited investors from the U.S., UK, Canada and other select countries. For more information visit www.kodakcoin.com. This initial Coin Offering is issued under SEC guidelines as a security token under Regulation 506 (c) as an exempt offering.

CuriousWon, It's still early, but some stability is returning to the crypto charts after the big correction. The charts are beginning to look interesting again for bulls, although some additional sideways base-building would be healthy. There might be another down leg, but the charts are looking a lot better.
Litecoin tested support at 210 and so far is holding. If 210 fails then next support on the chart is 150.
Bitcoin is near the upper boundary of its support band of 12000-13,500. If this fails then next support should be 11,500 and then 10,000. The chart is definitely looking better, but still too early to say that there won't be another down leg.
The Ethereum chart looks strongest and appears to want to go higher already, but that may depend on what the next move is for the sector generally.
Should be an interesting 2018, especially with war looming with N. Korea. After the Winter Olympics in South Korea end in Feb, the big annual US military exercises begin in March and that's when the war will likely begin, barring a miracle. Should be a wild crazy time for the world and financial markets, and how the crypto sector fares is anyone's guess..

The role of Blockchain/DLT in the IMF's plan to replace the US Dollar as the world's reserve currency -
>>> Dear President Trump: America is in for a Rude Awakening in January
By James Rickards
September 8, 2017
https://dailyreckoning.com/president-trump-america-rude-awakening/
Dear President Trump,
Over the last couple of years I’ve been all over TV… from Fox News to CNBC, CNN and Bloomberg. I’ve been telling our fellow Americans that the financial global elite was planning to issue their own globalist currency called special drawing rights, or SDRs.
And that those elites would use this new currency to replace the U.S. dollar as the global reserve currency.
I’ve even written about this extensively in my best-selling booksThe Road to Ruin and The New Case for Gold.
I’m sure some people in the mainstream media thought I was out of line — but the United Nations and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) have both confirmed this plan to replace the U.S. dollar is real. I’ve made this warning many times, but it seems to be falling on deaf ears. That’s why I’m writing directly to you.
Here’s the proof that the U.S. dollar is under attack, right in front of our eyes:
The UN said we need “a new global reserve system… that no longer relies on the United States dollar as the single major reserve currency.”
And the IMF admitted they want to make “the special drawing right (SDR) the principal reserve asset in the [International Monetary System].”
More recently, the IMF advanced their plan by helping private institutions, such as the UK’s Standard Chartered Bank, issue bonds in SDRs.
Although our mainstream media ignored this major event, the UK media reported:
"Standard Chartered successfully issues SDR bonds in China" (SDR = Special Drawing Rights)
This is all happening. And on January 1st, 2018, this trend to replace the U.S. dollar will accelerate. That’s when the global elite will implement a major change to the plumbing of our financial system.
It’s a brand-new worldwide banking system called Distributed Ledger Technology. And it will have a huge impact on seniors who are now preparing for retirement.
When this system goes live, many nations will be able to dump the U.S. dollar for SDRs.
For now, the U.S. dollar is still the world’s reserve currency. Other nations have to hold and use the U.S. dollar for international trade, instead of their own currencies.
This creates a virtually unlimited demand for U.S. dollars, which allows us to print trillions of dollars each year to pay for wars, debt and anything we want. It keeps our country operating.
Now, we can see that the global elites are working to unseat the U.S. dollar as the global reserve currency.
Here are the three key pieces of information that prove this will happen.
Fact #1 — The IMF issues a globalist currency called special drawing rights, or SDRs.
Fact #2 — The IMF has confirmed they want to replace the U.S. dollar with SDRs.
Fact #3 — The IMF has confirmed Distributed Ledgers can be used for “currency substitution”… and they’ve even set up a special task force to speed up implementation.
The IMF is using this technology to create an SDR payment system, because that’s the currency they issue.
>> Picture of Christine Lagarde, head of the IMF <<
When asked about the task force, she (Lagarde) said:
“As I see it, all this amounts to a brave new world for the financial sector.”
Yes, a brave new world where the dollar is no longer the world reserve currency.
Barbara C. Matthews, a former US Treasury Department attaché to the European Union, has reached the same conclusion.
She said the link between the globalists’ currency and Distributed Ledgers “is impossible to avoid.”
And that “the IMF seems to be exploring the possibility of permitting a broader use of [their globalist currency] beyond internal transactions among member central banks.”
Make no mistake, if the IMF is planning to use Distributed Ledgers to replace the U.S. dollar with SDRs. And just to be clear, when SDRs take over, the American people will be left with devalued dollars.
Once other nations start accumulating the globalist currency through Distributed Ledgers, they will no longer need to hold dollars. Once Distributed Ledgers go live, other nations will no longer need to buy Treasury bonds./b]
And that means our government — your government — will no longer be able to finance its normal operations, including welfare programs like Social Security. For those who have their retirement account parked in stocks, they could watch it evaporate in a matter of days. The weakest companies in the stock market could collapse once this plan goes live.
Just look what happened the last time we had a big change in our global financial system. In 1971, Nixon announced the U.S. would no longer officially trade dollars for gold. That created a lot of uncertainties, turning that decade into a nightmare for stock investors.
Take a look… the Dow Jones, an index of “stable” blue chip stocks (the kind most retirees like to hold), was cut in half. Stock investors bailed out of the market and, for the most part, didn’t come back for a decade.
Dow Jones Historical Chart
I expect something similar once Distributed Ledgers go live.
The transition from a U.S. dollar system to a new system dominated by SDRs will be messy. Stocks will collapse… and will stay down. There will be no recovery this time, because the U.S. government won’t be able to come to the rescue like they did in 2008.
You won’t even have funding for normal operations, let alone enough funds to save stock investors.
I know that governments have been patiently watching Distributed Ledger (often referred to as blockchain) technology develop and grow outside their control for the past eight years. Libertarian supporters of Distributed Ledgers celebrate this lack of government control.
Yet, their celebration is premature, and their belief in the sustainability of powerful systems outside government control is naïve. Governments don’t like competition especially when it comes to money.
You probably know that you, or any government, cannot stop Distributed Ledger technology — in fact you probably don’t want to. Governments and monetary elites want to control it using powers of regulation, taxation, and investigation.
An elite U.S. legal institution called the Uniform Law Commission, which proposes model laws intended for adoption in all fifty states, has released its latest proposal called the “Uniform Regulation of Virtual Currency Businesses Act.”
This new law will not only provide a regulatory scheme for state regulators, but will also be a platform for litigation by private plaintiffs and class action lawyers seeking recourse against real or imagined abuses by digital coin exchanges and facilities.
We know the U.S. government will want to use this technology for its benefit. One step toward government control just occurred a few weeks ago.
On August 1, 2017, the SEC announced “Guidance on Regulation of Initial Coin Offerings,” the first step toward requiring fundraising through Distributed Ledger, or blockchain-based tokens to register with the government.
But consider the following additional developments:
• On August 1, 2017, the World Economic Forum, host body to the Davos conference of global super-elites, published a paper entitled “Four reasons to question the hype around blockchain.”
•On August 7, 2017, China announced they will begin using Distributed Ledger technology to collect taxes and issue “electronic invoices” to citizens there.
Perhaps most portentously, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has weighed in.
In a special report dated June 2017, the IMF had this to say about Distributed Ledgers: The IMF favors control by a “pre-selected group of participants” or “one organization,” rather than allowing “anyone” to participate.
This paper should be viewed as the first step in the IMF’s plan to migrate its existing form of world money, the SDR, onto a DLT platform controlled by the IMF.
They’re telling you exactly what their plan is. It would be foolish to ignore them, or assume the U.S. dollar will remain the global reserve currency much longer once this plan is implemented, as early as January 1, 2018.
You know the global elites’ aren’t your biggest fan. You know the U.S. dollar has been under attack.
This is the global financial elites’ plan to remove the U.S. dollar from its position of power and to attack your administration all at once.
Who do you think American’s will blame when the stock market crashes, or Social Security runs out? We can hear the talking heads already.
Best,
Jim Rickards

Well it is good to see American Express associate with Ripple then ... at least you know the whole market won’t flop .... just like in anything though you do need to watch out for the scam ones though. Glad I got my tickets early on the cryptocurrency ride though. Good luck to us all.
OTC Buyer, The futures trading only applies to Bitcoin itself, so its effect on the other cryptos is only a spillover effect. Some of the speculative activity merely moved into the smaller cryptos.
But when big government regulations come, then the whole sector will get creamed. Jim Rickards says the government/central banksters can pull the plug on the sector at will when it begins to threaten their own currency racket / monopoly. Their plans are to use blockchain/DLT for their own 'official' currencies, and the independent cryptos like Bitcoin will shrink back to being marginal vehicles for illegal drug and arms traders like it was before.
In the meantime the crypto casino is open, but you need to keep one eye on the exits. Digital currencies using blockchain/DLT are the future, but the big banks and government will be the 'trusted 3rd party', just like now. People are dreaming if they think the powers that be will allow their control over money to slip away.
I am waiting for Reddcoin to be the next one IMO for 2018
Do Bitcoin Futures only work on Bitcoin or all cryptocurrencies???
A lot of the low price point cryptos have been running, bytecoin ran to over .01 and it's plagued by wallet issues (I lost over 20k coins and have yet to get a resolution to my issue). If I'd been able to sell at .01 it would have been a few stacks profit but I was in for $60 total so not out much..
Some other currencies I am betting on:
MOON, ESP, DOGE, REQ, DGB. It's penny stocks on steroids. I've been in them for a while and all have risen at least a few X's since purchasing.
Litecoin is by far my main horse though ;)
Ripple does have some merit though, its currently being used by some pretty large foreign banks and has been for quite some time. I never saw this meteoric rise coming though!
Wow, Ripple went ballistic this week and is now up almost 10 fold over the last 3 weeks. Looks like the strategy for hedge funds and speculators could be to just pile into the laggards for a quick score, and then move on to the next one.
ZCL ... wow, wish I got some last month ... what is up with that one???
Yeah I saw that too, if you look see the 24 hour cycle it was all asia trading days bringing it down then US day brings it back up. The news of South Korea regulation spooked a lot of people, it's reminiscent of the China news in the fall.
It's floating at 250 now, the 1 month chart still doesn't look very bulling but I am holding still. I did cover myself at $350 so at this point I am pretty content to just let it ride out...if you see the news Litecoin is becoming the new go-to since it is (IMO) in general a better coin. Bitcoin is such a high price point too.
I think 2018 will bring new highs for LTC yet. My next exit point is $900 as there will likely be key resistance at $1000.
You are right on the speculation piece, and the bubble piece, this will crash down. It's just a matter of when and how much. I still think it is just beginning to penetrate the main market. People talk about bitcoin at work, Litecoin is just hitting the news and I hear people talking about buying it or buying more. I think thay once South Koreo calms down it'll resume its rise upwards :)
In the current correction most main cryptos are still within their near term support areas, but Dash has broken support and Litecoin is likely in the process of breaking too. The Ripple chart is an anomaly, and still looks poised to go higher in the near term. Otherwise the charts look vulnerable in the near term.
I've only been following the main crypto charts - Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Monero, Dash, and Ripple. These things can flip on a dime, but the existence of the Bitcoin futures makes it easier to short, so things can get even crazier. Imo these cryptos are now just speculative vehicles for hedge funds with no chance of widespread adoption as currencies. The few that survive will be relegated back to use by drug and weapons dealers, child traffickers, etc.
On the other hand, blockchain/DLT technology will be widely adopted by the mainstream financial industry and the world's central banks. Russia and China will use blockchain to bypass the US Dollar and its SWIFT settlement system. Even the IMF will use blockchain for its world currency, the SDR/Special Drawing Rights. But the 'independent' cryptos like Bitcoin, etc will go back into the shadows for use on the Dark Web.
But in the meantime, the hustlers and hedge funds of Wall St recognize a great speculative vehicle when they see it, and the Wild West casino will continue, albeit with more volatility and risk for us small fry.
re. "vulnerable"
( Newbie to this board. )
I was watching https://coinmarketcap.com/all/views/all/ over the last hour. Strangely, the %1h column was red for hundreds of currencies at about the time you posted (30min ago). Makes me wonder WTF sometimes.
CuriousWon, Fwiw the Litecoin chart looks particularly vulnerable at the moment. It's right at key support but not looking too promising. Next support on the chart looks like 210 and then 150.
Of course anything can happen and these cryptos can turn on a dime, but the chart doesn't look good right now.
I came across this https://ethereumsweepstakes.io/
I am buying one, so cross my fingers!!!!

What’s the easiest way to purchase cryptos not available on coinbase?
Get in EARLY on CRYPTERIUM, ICO., a banking product delivery Cryptocurrency...
Looks like Bitcoin futures are a game changer since it's now much easier to go short. They also make arbitrage possible between GBTC and the futures, and much higher volatility for the cryptos going forward..
Once the big sell off is over they have the ability to run it back up again, although most casual investors have probably been scared out of the market. So mainly it'll be a playground for the pros and hedge fund types.

Great site!!
What do we know about Tether?
Best place to hold and buy?
KSIS just Eliminated $1.47 Million in Convertible Debt Recovers over 20 Million Shares of Previously Issued or Reserved Stock.
Float of 8M, and fully audited
KSIX float of only 8M shares, very thin for a company pulling in $$Millions per month.
KSIX with $1.5M Monthly Revs now mining Bitcoin!
Looks like some rotation out of Bitcoin and into some of the smaller names like Monero and Dash, which are both up big today.
Bitcoin finally gets its correction. Support on the chart looks like a wide band from 14-17 K. Past corrections this year have lasted several months, and it'll be interesting to see what effect the futures have. Potential is there for more dramatic moves in both directions.
Ten coins in the fountain (i.e., Blockchain!). Which one/s will the fountain BLESS? ALL OF THEM! Hello there, my cryptocurrency, digital money, & otherwise Blockchain COMRADS! I'm a 'newbie' here, on this cryptocurrency OTC/Penny Stocks forum. And, I'm a 'newbie' to this (convoluted) world of 'Digital Money'. As such, I just wanted to pass-along my very recent (high-profit) discovery! To wit, that the crypto COINS themselves --- versus the mere (OTC, etc.) 'companies' touting them --- are where the REAL monster-profit action is.
After several days of reviewing the 2018 'altcoins' recommendations of numerous online 'Crypto-World PUNDITS', I invested a total of $3000 (USD) into the following 10-each, speculative, though highly-recommended 'altcoins' (in alphabetical order): (1.) "Basic Attention Coin" (BAT); (2.) "Burst" (BURST); (3.) "Cardano" (ADA); (4.) "DigiByte" (DGB); (5.) "Dogecoin" (DOGE); (6.) "IOTA" (MIOTA); (7.) "PotCoin" (POT); (8.) "Ripple" (XRP); (9.) "Steem" (STEEM); and(10.) "Lumens" (XLM.
BOTTOM LINE: To wit, since my initial purchases of the above-listed 10 'altcoins' --- beginning on 11-16-17 (my "Ripple" buy) --- my original $3000 (USD) is now worth circa $7000 (USD). Not bad, for about a one-month investment period! So, my friends, stop messing-around with the mere NASDAQ, OTC, & Penny Stock (crypto) COMPANIES. Instead, grab the COINS themselves! Then LAUGH all the way to the BANK --- 'FIAT' money bank, that is!
Good luck!
