If you think that it is FINALLY time that you got yourself a bit of Bitcoin...you should know the best way is from Coinbase...and the best way to do it at Coinbase is through someone's referral link. Seriously....Do you want to know why? Because if you use a Referral Link to sign up - then whenever you exceed buying your first 100 USD fiat of Bitcoin...then Coinbase will give YOU and the referral (yes, that's us) 10 USD ....EACH of us. in bitcoin value...so, buy 100 dollars of Bitcoin and get 110 dollars of Bitcoin. 

Bitcoin Soft Fork Becomes Political Popularity Contest - Perhaps

In most updates I provide a `breaking' story - this really is more background than story.... but - it's new today too - Bitcoin Softfork... underlying question of course is when or if BTC will change into store of value haven and challenge the existing fiats. Read more about the SegWit Solution soft fork.

In HUGE news - The IRS Has Issued A Summons To Coinbase to identify at least several BTC accounts that seem to suggest illegal activity that avoids IRS taxes - since most in USA if not many nations use Coinbase as their source of BTC - worrisome indeed. The story really leaves it open how large or specific the IRS request to Coinbase is...stay tuned.

First India and now Venezuela is imposing currency ATM restrictions - and the interest in Bitcoin continues to grow as fiats are seen as less reliable. Same is true for Canada - even if for different reasons than a currency collapse - indeed, BTC ATM's have come to Coffee Shops In Canada Recently.

As Bitcoin continues to rise in price - 4% Rises In One Hour are starting to occur.

As you know by simply being here and reading the links a few times a month - things are changing fast as more and more uses for the blockchain are imagined... now how about earning money for your computer's own downtime? Read About The Golem Pre-Sale. (earlier in month)

As more and more merchants understand the potential to reach the BTC market... and understand it's convertibility - more and more are accepting it for retail - Like Dozens Of Merchants In France This Week.

How about this read about ETH's situation... seems that various ETHEREUM projects may be what is Sustaining It's Real Value. Interesting.

THE OCTOBER 29TH Zcash Crash - AND - Swiss Railway Company Turns Ticket Machines Into Bitcoin ATM's

If you are a crypto-trader you probably lost money yesterday doing so; as much like 10-29-1929 - yesterday's 10-29 saw the similar crash - of not only the newly introduced Zcash - but nearly all cryptos; as Bitcoin itself, seems determined to return to the 800 dollar level again. Nonetheless... a few coins are already in recovery mode and timing the bottom was probably impossible.

How The ETHEREUM Price Crash Made Me A Better Crypto Trader

IF you dig into this blog deep enough you can find when I became involved in the Crypto trading area - late 2014. I've been through several exchanges and yes... lost money in Cryptsy like everyone else too... not seeing the handwriting on the chat room wall. That said, it is also easy to see that I've been `pushing' this thing called Ethereum... and had Tether shares of Ether on Bittrex well before it was knee high to a molehill....additionally I was in on all the early trading and more than anything kept holding my Ethereum coins when it became real..... indeed being one of the lucky ones in before the huge rise.... and giving me nearly ALL my profits... as I saw it rise until I had over 1,300.00 fiat in my trading account...90% of it ETH....ETH pushing the .035btc levels ect.... 15 a coin.... and then the decline came.

I already had the `stick with it too long' thing with the Navajo coin in early 2015 - but... nonetheless I stuck with ETH... thinking that it just could take off at any moment..yes the FOMO idea even though I wasn't missing anything as I rode  it all up..... but eventually as my BTC value and fiat value declined - and I started to `short' my ETH - to maintain - I knew it was time to treat my trading BTC as just that... something to trade and not be attached to .... with ETH being the best to trade of course... but now... not trading through rose colored glasses.
