Oeleo has been a great help help to you   dont forget you can also watch some videos at youtube.  Bank accounts are set up where executor of an estate can access accounts with proof that was given from a court. I would think some of these crypto accounts would have the same thing you just have to provide proof you are now the owner of accounts and or are the executor of the estate. Then they would send you a link to create a new password.   I could be 100% wrong but worth checking into

Its always been that way, way back if JD Rockefeller said it everyone was on board, then it was Warren Buffet with Stocks, the world guru was Richard Branson before The new adventures of Elon Musk.  You are 100% right though it just shows how easily people are influenced by one person. 

congrats winners and thanks Steeley for the fun !

right they started out with massive mining outfits using Hydro power, however that was years ago so I was thinking more on the individuals that sprung up in a country that size mining from home the last four years or so.   

looks like a few more days then

right but where did the money go?  This conversation is more about what the consumer can do when they form a movement, rather than crunching electricity numbers. All you have to do is look as TSLA stock price. $24 to $2,900 ( split adjusted) in 10 years and larger than Ford, GM and any other one you want to pick combined.

however here is a good read on electric vehicles and their future.

The latest report by Bloomberg New Energy Finance shows that by 2040, 58% of global passenger vehicle sales will come from electric vehicles. At the same time, they will make up less than 33% of all the cars on the road.

you could say the crackdown on Chinese mining is good for BTC as this will reduce the carbon footprint. They use mostly coal fired power plants.  Now the rest of the world pics up China's slack with more energy efficient grids.  Next there will newly designed miners ( probably in the works now) that will dramatically reduce power usage while increasing computation abilities. 

  BTC will settle into a range where nothing coming out of China will effect it with the exception of to the upside, it will just trade as though China doesn't exist.
My guess is 31k to 35k range trading

Kinda seems that way now

I believe you are spot on with that, the computations can still be difficult while the energy demand decreases 80% or so from improved miners.   

That's probably just how they are looking at it

isn't NEO a China based crypto  ?  This is going to be interesting to see how it holds up the next few weeks

good point !  I also think Elon is in the know with China and their stance on crypto. After all the fastest growing demand on his vehicles is from the Chinese market.

One of the biggest movers of the day and no chatter?

That would be great, yes the Combined cycle Gas Turbines have been springing up all over the last 10 years replacing many of the dinosaur coal plants. They just bulldozed down a 4 unit ( Plant Branch 1969) in Milledgeville GA  a few years back. The CCGT's are much cleaner and start up in a couple of minutes vs hours. There is still two monster coal fired plants in GA.  Plant Scherer in Juliette ( Largest coal power plant in the U.S. # 2 in power production)  and Bowen in Cartersville.  I was over a $85M environmental project there in 2016. Good to see the renewables climbed to 20%.. Solar farms are all over the south now. 20% is going to be about the top until battery tech catch's up.

anyway lemme run, I could talk about energy forever lol... I appreciated the comments from you all and remember I am not anti BTC     Just watching the world and trying to keep the investments I do have.

well lets hope it doesn't but here is something to think about, lets say BTC is 100% renewable energy from their own dedicated sources in the future.
You will still have a movement of users/consumers that will say why use BTC when I can Use XYZ coin and achieve the same transaction of digital currency
using 4 million times less power.  I mentioned earlier that the power Industry was my business for most my career (30 plus years) and I still do some consulting
for Southern Company. I still bogles my mind that we could completely end all the pollution problems and all the energy problems with Nuclear. Thorium based salt reactors.

However the public wont allow it from unwarranted fear of Nuclear power.  I also mentioned the Energy mortality rate per TKwhr and yet the public wont embrace Nuclear.
The point here has nothing to to with power and BTC. The point in this is public perception, and thats what can make a difference in the crypto world as much as it has in the power Industry world.

Energy Source                    Mortality Rate (deaths/trillionkWhr)

Coal – global average         100,000    (41% global electricity)

Coal – China                      170,000   (75% China’s electricity)

Coal – U.S.                         10,000    (32% U.S. electricity)

Oil                                     36,000    (33% of energy, 8% of electricity)

Natural Gas                          4,000    (22% global electricity)

Biofuel/Biomass                  24,000    (21% global energy)

Solar (rooftop)                        440    (< 1% global electricity)

Wind                                      150    (2% global electricity)

Hydro – global average          1,400    (16% global electricity)

Hydro – U.S.                               5    (6% U.S. electricity)

Nuclear – global average              90    (11%  global electricity w/Chern&Fukush)

Nuclear – U.S.                            0.1    (19% U.S. electricity)

It is notable that the U.S. death rates for coal are so much lower than for China, strictly a result of regulation, particularly the Clean Air Act (Scott et al., 2005). It is also notable that the Clean Air Act is one of the most life-saving pieces of legislation ever adopted by any country in history, along with the Fair Labor Standards Act (1938) which established the 40 hour week, and Medicare in 1965.  Still, about 10,000 die from coal use in the U.S. each year, and another thousand from natural gas.

random whatever is left, thanks ! 

That's about how I see it too, I believe two or three Alts will eventually capture the majority of the crypto market cap however.   

you need user name and date by the coin

yes correct 480B   ,,,, social media now days can really cause some swings lol
