        saying what?
        seen lots of noise about BTC the last few days...with the futures contracts finishing tomorrow and expecting new lows before things shoot up

          Utility versus value. Department of Energy seemingly in talks with Dash to implement the Dash blockchain into electricity meters. I'll PM you. Bottom line, Dash is massively undervalued given the touted utility and potential for growth. Two indicators that suggest strong appreciation to come.

          Also, the general market volatility - we're in a consolidation period - it'll probably remain that way until March - May. If you've picked your horses then no trading until then is the advice. Walk away.

            So for traders looking to put more money in and get something out - Mine. Get a mining rig, hell PM me and I'll build one for you for some beer tokens. ROI happens in approximately 120-150 days depending on your chosen coin and accepted level of risk. After that you are literally printing crypto-money, it's as simple as that.

            You can then pick your horse, accumulate more coin and wait for it to appreciate. All the miners at the moment are busily moving away from coins like ETH to try and make more margin hoping for price rises, but they aren't doing it in a proper business like fashion, or taking into consideration how to get their money out, etc. So much money to be made right now.

              Interesting:

              Former Ripple Exec Invests $57.5 Million in Digital Money Platform Uphold

              I need to disclose that in 2014 I invested £1k into Uphold when they were crowdfunding as a startup. I know I shill it quite a bit as an alternative to coinbase but it is a very good alternative for FIAT in/out and it supports BTC/BCH/ETH/DASH/LTC/BAT (for some reason...) and lots of other FIAT currencies as well as gold and silver.

              I actually don't want it to become mega busy - but I might inquire what that startup £1k is worth now...

                I think you'll be quite happy with that investment. It's a great service even if you don't use it for crypto which I'll use a lot more if and when they bring out debit cards in GBP.

                  They recently did bring out GBP debit cards In hindsight I would be happier if I'd invested £1k into actual BTC as opposed to a BTC exchange in Dec 2014...

                  Still no point in lamenting over that any more.

                    Any sign of any UK based/regulated exchanges?

                    Only seen the news about the Gibraltar Stock Exchange doing one (https://gbx.gi/) with an ICO for their 'rock token (RKT)' open to public on 7th Feb.

                    Should make it easier to get money in/out if UK banks are in the same regulatory zone (hopefully meaning they won't be so quick to freeze accounts if dealing with a trusted source), and cheaper in fees if can use GBP instead of SEPA/Euro etc.

                    Bound to be more and more such services coming along, eventually.
                    Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.

                      I saw they added the ability add funds from debit card, but not a debit card you can use to spend.
