Read an article the other day. Tech companies starting crypto Coins to fuel stock prices. I mean what could possibly go wrong there! ::) Remember never invest more than you can afford to lose. I'm seeing too many red flags as of late. Best of luck to all in this realm.

People are taking profits, the coins are red, after that, same people will buy again at low prices, and again, again and again Title: Re: Why Coin Price lost value during this weekend - a $20 billion price correction Post by: xxcsu on September 04, 2017, 05:27:09 PM That's not normal when China's central bank, the People's Bank of China, announced an extension of its crackdown on ICOs — initial coin offerings — on Monday morning (http://www.businessinsider.com/r-china-bans-initial-coin-offerings-as-illegal-fundraising-2017-9?r=UK&IR=T) >:(
China on Monday banned individuals and organizations from raising funds through initial coin offerings (ICO), or launches of digital currencies, saying the practice constituted illegal fundraising.

Good for them. The less people that get scammed with ICO's, the better off Crypto will be. When anyone that produces nothing more than a whitepaper with a dream and a wallet can get 100M, it's not going to end well for those investing.

Title: Re: Why Coin Price lost value during this weekend - a $20 billion price correction Post by: universalresonance on September 04, 2017, 05:59:08 PM If I'm to understand it correctly- is the bright side of this -that -weak hands will be wiped away from mining and that in turn could bring difficulty down? then perhaps new ones come in and then prices go to the mean?

And they're also insisting on folks that did so prior to that ruling return the funds they raised - guess China doesn't believe that Ex Post Facto laws are a bad thing. |
