Not quite sure l'm a masochist Barney R, l'm far too self-centred for that ! l think l meant to say that l like the 24/7 markets never sleep aspect of crytpo. Seems to me that it's another progressive aspect of the decentralised cryptospace that is beyond the institutional control of market time, and l also really like the way it is so globalised, so that people anywhere in the world can buy / sell literally at any time.

What is that ? The covid pandemic is fabricated, Joe Biden is a communist, the recent tragedy in Israel was started deliberately, vaccines are a bioweapon, and the 'crypto con' is being used to perpetrate the great heist of the third millenium ..... it all sounds like conspiracy theory central. Sorry, l can't be dealing with conspiracy theories !

Mainly BTC and ETH, and a smaller amount of Stellar. Had some STORJ as well but didn't seem to be doing much. As somebody else said, the 24/7 movements are actually quite enjoyable !

Which surely means that the best time to buy BTC might be any time in the week leading up to the last Friday of each month.

Bear in mind as well that environmentalism / the Green Party are a significant political force in Germany ( currently about 23% in the polls ) : very likely to have some sway on institutional investment, potentially favouring ARB over other operators.

soz Mr Bucket that is like what l meant to say innit

Today seems completely unrealistic. l'd be very happy if it hits 3.00 some time in June.
Marathon not a sprint , months and quarters not hours and days.

JPMorgan to offer an actively managed BTC fund : another good piece of news for BTC / ARB

Bought my first crypto about a month ago : mainly BTC and ETH, but also very small amounts of Stellar and Storj. Did it on Coinbase, just because it seemed easiest. Apart from anything else it's good fun and just quite interesting following the daily fluctuations. Think more ETH will be my next move.

anyone with teenagers might get this .... (just posted on a tweet by Argo)

@ArgoBlockchain on the rise after a huge sell-off! Turnaround?

haha had to do a double take there for one second !!

Gary Gensler did some great teaching sessions on cryptocurrency at MIT (Massachtussets Institute of Technology), very watchable, he's a great teacher with deep / broad knowledge on crypto ..... really recommend them.

pnaic holding ! glad l found this forum just for a bit of reassurance ..... looks down the back of the sofa for spare pennies

Bitcoin tanking ?? Woke up to $64.345 (which is nice because l bought some over Easter). Let's hope for less FUD today.

Just watched ..... the video's titled WTF and is a great analysis of a very strange day.
Strongly recommended, especially to the doubters !

Excuse my ignorance, l don't pretend to be an expert investor (though l did once work in an investment bank lol), but hasn't a feature of the last ten days or so been some pretty massive sells at the very end of the day ? And today, we have the reverse, with a long sequence of decent buys ..... or am l reading it wrong !?

Keld van Schreven soundbite in a Forbes article on the Coinbase listing .... good that KR1 are on their radar.
