Bitcoin Is Over $7,200!

[Non Sequitur]

Interesting but brief blog about evaluating ICOs. I know Bitcoing is getting all of the press but the real future is the startups developing the tech and uses for blockchain.

The U.S. government is very aware of cryptocurrencies and the rise of bitcoin. This week American authorities from multiple agencies such as the IRS, the Federal Reserve, and President Trump’s press secretary all explained they are monitoring cryptocurrencies and bitcoin’s recent popularity.

Greg Mannarino over on utube makes an important distinction. ... paraphrasing .... the dollar is a unit debt ...... a claim/iou to the central bank ..... that dollar in your hand is not yours ... its just a claim .....

Bitcoin has nothing to do with debt ....... bitcoin is something entirely different ........ Faith and credit of the united states is viewed as a little nursery rhyme .... its outdated and paternalistic ....

your not holding anything in a dollar .... nobody has faith in it .... at least nobody with an ounce of common sense .....

A Dr. Mark Skidmore says there is another 21 trillion missing from the federal budget.

We are no longer in Kansas. We are collapsing. It was always simple math.

Buying Bitcoin was a no brainer.

Bitcoin is a National Security Issue - yes, it exposes a whole layer inside our government system that is completely outside the law.

Our system is gone.

Guys, gals, ..... were human beings, not zombies ....... its better to be out front as to what has happened.

A little bit on there about Bitcoin and taxes. IRS will have me in their crosshairs. Let you know how it goes. I paid the highest marginal rate possible going over it many times with my tax adviser.

Our system is dead. If I go down in flames, so be it. I made the gains and I paid the tax. If the IRS dreams up anything else, so be it. At least I tried to win.

I don't know who has the balls to short bitcoin. Most bears are just talkers. Doubt they are willing to put their money where their mouth is.

Straddle it with options

Straddle it with options

Straddles would be pretty expensive if there were bitcoin options. IV has to be around 100%.
