    The banksters don't want to lose their monopoly even if they think it's to monopoly money.

      Anything that involves fast trading, low fees, and decentralised exchanging is a win in my book.
      precisely and if you read the E&Y document which I posted above this is what they are saying

      ICO is now actually filling that gap that the AIM market used to fill, except these days the AIM market has been so abused as a quick way onto the SE that to get onto aim you've got to be a 250million company

      so ICO's are now providing AIM style access to capital for smaller companies

      and that's why it is clear to see that ICO's need to be bought into the mainstream, regulated like a less regulated public company, eg like AIM, or the other newer markets around the world, tradeable on these mainstream exchanges and with proper market makers and proper compliance and regulation and reporting and this is where it will go

        Also anyone can invest in them for a very low amount. Not unlike crowdfunding - it's basically the new crowdfunding. Although potential massive future companies that can be invested in by non-sophisticated investors.

          agreed

          and just imagine, when ICO's/coins will be regulated and accessible on the bricks and mortar exchanges
          then the coins will be accessible to everybody

              Can see lots of demand around $9200.

              ETC and Dash are looking bullish at the minute too. Impressive how, compared to BTC, their $ value has not changed much.

              XRP looks like it might spring upwards if it hits the dollar mark. Seeing a few predictions suggesting $5 by the end of March. Don't know about that.

              LTC - what's happened to LTC? No demand whatsoever.

                Sorry, didn't even spot the thread's post count.

                Bitcoin 'getting hammered' again. News of India's budget denouncing bitcoin but supporting blockchain being taken as 'bitcoin is banned'.

                Oh well, buy the dips.

                Unless it's a drop due to other fears such as the ongoing Tester 'scandal'.
                Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.

                      Have already made more money that I thought possible.. share the joy seems right. Also some of the folks I've shared with agreed to provide a % of their profits based on this advice to charity.
