Crypto double blow
Bitcoin will come back up. But where is the bottom? I used to think bitcoin was like gold, a place to move money in crisis. In the past it often was , particularly in the third world. Clearly it is not like gold. It’s not like currency. Gold is still the only safe place in a crisis, up 30%... -
