Steady rise for the last 2 weeks, hitting 300k and then dip to 275.
We need a poll.
Dip and take off, or slide right back down?
Tiz good fun, as good as watching a roller coaster video on youtube can be. Definitely a fun gamble for some play money.

I don't see the appeal. The shitcoins flow up and down based on a mix of news releases and associated crowd psychology. There's no skill involved. Whether they double or half in value by next month is entirely unpredictable. Watching paint dry is more fun.

Nasdaq is open to becoming cryptocurrency exchange, CEO says
- Once the regulation is smoothed out and the space "matures", Nasdaq would consider becoming a digital currency exchange, the company's CEO says.
- "Certainly Nasdaq would consider becoming a crypto exchange over time," Nasdaq CEO Adena Friedman says.
- In the meantime, Nasdaq is supporting existing crypto exchanges, and announced a technology deal with Gemini Wednesday.
Once the space matures, Nasdaq is open to becoming a platform for trading cryptocurrencies like bitcoin, according to the company's CEO.
"Certainly Nasdaq would consider becoming a crypto exchange over time," Nasdaq CEO Adena Friedman told CNBC's Squawk BoxWednesday. "If we do look at it and say 'it's time, people are ready for a more regulated market,' for something that provides a fair experience for investors."
A key roadblock for the Nasdaq and other institutional investors is regulation, which Friedman said needs to be ironed out before the company would add an exchange. But she was bullish on the future of digital assets.
"I believe that digital currencies will continue to persist it's just a matter of how long it will take for that space to mature," Friedman said. "Once you look at it and say, 'do we want to provide a regulated market for this?' Certainly Nasdaq would consider it."
In the meantime, the Nasdaq is supporting existing cryptoexchanges.

Leaving my long-term play until December at least.
Could be a tenth or ten times it's current value by then.
Personally guess that future rises and dips will be slower and less volatile than the Dec '17 - March '18 period.
With that guess being based on absolutely nothing whatsoever.

it is possible that cryptocurrency businesses take over the global finance industry in the next decade or two.
I think five years from now we wont recognize the global financial system at all.
BTC and a handful of others (LTC, DAS, ZEC, XMR, ETH) will be recognized has global currency standards.
We will also be seeing decentralized ledger technology rapidly replacing antiquated government functions.
It is the advent of Bitcoin which makes this all possible.
Many governments around the world are realizing the jig is up. Their corrupt, oppressive and coercive control over the Earth's economy is fading fast.

^ That's the kind of insight we can expect from "no-coiner" fishing.
Of course volatility is a given in the crypto-currency world, since it is beginning the seriously threaten some very big players.
Many of them will freak out and fight, but the smart ones are already adopting the technology.
The cat id out of the bag. The disturbance is very real and far reaching.
Just for some perspective,
April 27 2017, Bitcoin was $1300.00.
April 26 2017, ETH was $50.00
We should expect an even wilder ride this year.
