Eastman Kodak New (KODK) would be a prime example of a company "dabbling" in the bitcoin/blockchain market.

This bitcoin created by the anonymous blogger in 2009 was for the most part dead money until last spring or early summer.

We have witnessed a bull market that began in the US in March 2009.

Every quality public stock company has appreciated in market value. The easy money, so to speak, has already been made.

So what does a newbie do?

Bull markets with some age to them have a way of coming up with some industry or product that will attract the late comers looking to catch up quick.

When I check the profiles of the players on the blockchain/virtual money OTC forums I noticed a good number joined Investors Hub in 2017. This tells me there are a number of younger participants who were probably living on parent's money in college or university during the bear market. So they have no idea how the stock market is also capable of destroying wealth as well as creating it.

SEC Cracks Down On "Overnight Blockchain" Companies

If most investors are indeed “all-in,” we’d expect to see signs of reaching for returns and questionable risk-taking behavior. That’s exactly what we are starting to see, in my view. If there is an “obvious” bubble, it’s Bitcoin and all things blockchain-related. The phenomenon seems to be bleeding into equity markets, where almost every week, another stock jumps on reports of (often highly questionable) involvement in Bitcoin, blockchain, etc.

“I know this idea is crazy – but it’s going to get crazier!” is an often mentioned investment thesis here. The mood was captured perfectly in a January 2nd CNBC headline that read: “Tiny company [that] owns some Hooter’s restaurants says it will use blockchain for rewards program, boosting stock by 50%.” Lest you think this was an isolated incident, note the eye-popping returns (over just 60 days) for the stocks listed below. Many of these companies pulled off similar gimmicks.
