    5/19/2019 - story about bitcoin airs tonight on 60 MINUTES

    https://www.cbsnews.com/news/meet-th...es-2019-05-16/

    CBS
    7:00 pm - 8:00 pm | Today

    One Loose Thread; Rainbow Railroad; Bitcoin's Wild Ride.

    An employee at an Estonian branch of a Danish Bank uncovered a $230 billion money-laundering scheme from Russian rubles to U.S. dollars that is probably the largest such case in history;

    Who cares about Shitcoin? None of you have even 10% of what you would need to invest to actually make something significant.

    That's why people invest in altcoins. Looking for that needle in a haystack that's going to grow a million percent like bitcoin. Fact is, though that 99% of them are just pump and dump schemes with no use and won't be around in 5 years.
