That's it!

Some exciting news today! Google thinking about getting involved in the blockchain tech, and JD.com launching a blockchain platform. Definitely interesting stuff, and it will be interesting to see where these projects will go!

The markets are having the well-expected drop today. Mostly red... But many traders and TA-experts I've talked to have said that we're most likely going to see a huge wave up after this little correction. Do you believe it, or are you currently even more bearish than ever?

What do you think?

Kinda worried google IBM microsoft, will just put out products that will smash the crypto space apart

Well, it might also bring a lot of positive attention for cryptocurrencies and the blockchain.
