Some of the methods described sound very much like what is happening to BTC and the alts market in general.

8.56am - UPDATE - Barclays links with CoinBase

Barclays has signed a deal with a major bitcoin exchange to simplify the process of deposits and withdrawals for Coinbase’s UK customers, who have previously had to route their transactions through an Estonian bank.

The Financial Times report that San Francisco start-up Coinbase has secured a bank account with the British bank.

The move marks a break from the general trend of mainstream banks avoiding the cryptocurrency industry over price volatility and links to fraud.

Thoughts

As the title suggest new to crypto, small investment of $500, which coins should I be looking to invest in?



Thanks in advance for any advice given.

It is almost Chinese New Year, next year is the year of the Dog, this is a bad year for Dragons.  As the Dragon is one of the most preferred years to be born in a large portion of the Chinese population are born under this sign. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-16589052

Guessing a large portion of Dragons have withdrew their funds from cryptocurrencies.

Yes this all sounds like crazy shit to people in the West, I will let the hot Chinese woman explain more.

Almost all horoscope state a similar thing



 "When it comes to investment, you should give priority to the prudent capital preservation strategy and keep away from the high-interest and high-risk products or investments"

How much of an impact is this having on crypto currencies ?


2019 is predicted to be extremely profitable year for Dragons, is 2018 the year of purchase low, hold until a large portion of the Chinese population re enter the market?
