Any of you guys participate in the Tezos ICO? Tezos futures are traded on HitBTC and they recently shot up around 75%. I'm wondering why that would happen when they are facing two class action lawsuits? Any insight?

Ethereum at $408 currently

solid week for many cryptos

Buckle up kids, the eth train is taking off

**TheMoneyShot** · 11-23-17, 12:26 PM

I'm just curious for all you witty investors out there.... just a question....

With so many people investing with crypto currency now... are these coins even on wall street? Like, do all investing establishments like Charles Schwab... Merrill Lynch allow you to purchase these coins from them???

My point being.... with so many people slightly tilting the scale towards crypto currency.... would the Dow Jones start dropping? I mean how much money is in the world to invest??? People doing both? Is there a side that will lose out eventually? Doesn't something have to give sooner or later?

Can't really value them the same. One is a market share in a company, the other is a monetary instrument.

Boys, it might be time to take some of the profits off the table and just risk "house money".

Not if crypto is what people will be using to do everyday business in 10 years. If you have your money in dollars then you are betting on dollars. If you have it in bitcoin then you are betting on bitcoin. I'll bet on crypto every time.

Huge price difference EMC2 between Polo and Bittrex but wallets are disabled at Polo.

I just saw a news piece on Australian television about a guy wanting to sell his house for bitcoin.

The reporter claimed bitcoin expected to hit $1 million each.

The runaway train of public interest is on track.

cardano had a great week and may keep going up if it gets added to any exchanges in Asia.

I doubt this. Maybe someday, but not 10 years. Remember,

“No one ever went broke underestimating the intelligence of the American public.”

I'd make a gentleman's wager with you, but its highly unlikely I'd be here in 10 years to settle.

All of bitcoins in the whole world are only worth like 1/3rd of apple.

There's only like 4 million bitcoins left to be made.

And yes, there is so much drug/illegal money out there that would otherwise never be put in the stock market and this is what happens.

Supposedly even US government has 600k bitcoins

I heard Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Gold are scams.
They were leeching off the Bitcoin name to make money off of. 200,000 Bitcoin Gold were mined by the scammers before the fork.

not really.. Bitcoin cash may be viewed as a more liquid form of btc in the future.. the viewpoint I've seen, shows btc becoming a long term product (or atlas thats what the investors are going to sell it as) and BCH viewed as more of a monetary instrument (method for payment)

**ace7550** · 11-27-17, 12:24 PM

BCH and BTG are definitely not "scams." You may not like them or you may not want to invest in them but that doesn't make them scams. BCH is trying to improve on BTC by increasing the block size. BTG is a version of BTC that is only mineable with GPU's and not asics.
I kinda like what BTG is trying to do. Just not sure if the infrastructure and coding are completely sound.

Bloomberg - Are you a robot?

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/sponsors/cme-group/bitcoin-and-gold-a-growth-comparison/?adv=13162&prx_t=PzsDA-poXAUt8PA

two things argue in favor of bitcoin’s continued success: network effects and government regulation. Just as Facebook, LinkedIn and a handful of other websites or apps dominate social networking, it is possible that the incumbent currencies like bitcoin and ethereum could continue to dominate cryptocurrencies as well for the simple reason that they have large networks of users who accept them. Google’s attempt to invade the social networking space with its Facebook equivalent, Google+, didn’t turn out so well because the user community was already on Facebook’s platform (although Google, by all appearances continues to prosper in other domains). Analogous network effects could work to bitcoin’s advantage. If a large community of users accept it, they will be loath to move elsewhere unless a new alternative is truly compelling and not a mere copycat.
