hehe not bad :)

I even explained Bitcoin to my Grandmother :) and she was very interested about.
She even called me one morning when TV was showing Charlie S. :)
She told me - "Do you know that some important man for a Bitcoin bank was arrested?"
:) "I told her, yeah I know - do not worry, just another issue that will be soon solved"

My grandma is 81.

Did she let you use her bank account to hook up to Coinbase?

Here's a funny way of explaining an older person what Bitcoin does - NOT RECOMMENDED BTW, let people make their own decisions!

Mom, let's spend $10K now and get BTC22.22222222222222 @ $450 each.

Wait till the end of the year, then pay off our mortgage  ;D

You could be right, but somehow I have a feeling that the price will stabilize and start rising before the 15th.
Dunno why....

Hell know my friend. Everything can happen.
Nobody knows. One is sure - bitcoin is here to stay with us even if the price will be 1$.
