Check out CoinMetro CEO Kevin Murcko's thoughts on the current state of the market: Bitcoin: World's largest cryptocurrency takes a diveSo what is behind the crypto crash? Kevin Murcko, CEO of crypto exchange CoinMetro, told Euronews that Bitcoin's peak price was always destined to drop.
"All cryptos are nascent assets; speculation, rather than the usefulness of the technology or the underlying asset, is what’s mostly been driving price movement since its inception.
"Fuelled by media hype and the conviction amongst the public that crypto was a way to get-rich-quick, the asset class rocketed from almost nothing to over $800 billion at its peak. That price point, quite obviously, was unsustainable," he said.
He explained that we are now seeing the fallout of a bubble driven almost entirely by financial speculation, rather than the quality or usefulness of the underlying technology.
"Dumb money brought the crypto boom, and dumb money is to blame for the crypto crash. This sell-off was long overdue and is almost certainly not the conclusion to this bearish market," he added. What do you think? Come join the conversation on CoinMetro's Telegram Group!

The team is still expecting a Q4 launch for the Live Beta, and tokens will be minted and distributed around that launch. In the meantime, the Beta Demo is available for you to try if you'd like to see what all the hype is about! You can login with your normal profile information.

I took part in this project in the summer, but a lot of time has passed and you should already launch your product. You come up with an exchange. You need to run it.

Yes, well the team is certainly working on it. However, CoinMetro is an institution, not just an exchange, and so plenty of work is involved in making sure CoinMetro is positioned properly for the future, that includes meeting standard guidelines for regulators. In the meantime there is an open beta, you can access it here: http://open.coinmetro.com

Check out this recent post from CoinMetro's blog: Cash Is Dying When was the last time you had cash on you? When did you last pay in cash? Answering these questions is easy for older generations, but millennials will surely get stuck. If you think about it, most payments today are made with cards, mobile devices, or online. https://coinmetro.com/blog/cash-is-dying/

Check out the latest blog post from the team!
"I Have No Time for Traditional Banking!"Here's an excerpt from the article: "Paying with Bitcoin scanning a QR code is just as easy and quick. If you have bitcoins to spend and know where the coin is accepted, faster payments are just an app away!
To pay with an QR code, you need a bitcoin wallet up on you mobile. All you need to do is simply scan the QR code, and it will prefill the recipient bitcoin address and the requested payment amount. Once you send the transaction, the payment is complete." If you have any questions, make sure to ask them on the thread for next week's AMA!
