• In short? Ethereum has an alliance of more than 30 companies, extremely influential and powerful each in their own right, supporting the future of cryptocurrencies by building a highly specialized platform with the intention of self-executing peer-to-peer contracts.
• Then, just this last week, Dan Fleyshman and Branden Hampton, two super stars in the world of digital influence—started talking about the future of Ethereum and began making big purchases themselves.
• Dan Fleyshman is the youngest founder of a publicly traded company, Author and Angel Investor in 24 companies said: Over time, I noticed that the only other coin on the Coinbase platform was ‘ETHEREUM,’ I started researching it. Then once I heard about the ‘Ethereum Alliance’ being backed by 30 major corporations, I decided it was time to go all-in. Ethereum is a cryptocurrency much like Bitcoin, but for a variety of technical reasons, arguably better.”

Definitely ethereum has advantages over bitcoin with crypto ATMs. And fiat has advantages over ethereum with crypto ATMs because confirmation times for cash-out transactions are instantaneous. You don't have to wait even 15 seconds... What a dumbass?!

Great news. 15 seconds isn't that long enough and I can certainly wait for it. Wish an EthTM will also be installed in my place.

Is Vitalik's foundation already bought by "partnering" banks? I can't think of any other reason why ETHF price is that overvalued. If that is the case it can get much higher!

lol I agree. Other than the obvious marketing value a crypto ATM provides, I really don't see the value of them. Leave ATMs for fiat!

Yeah I'll only do shorts, I'll short again

I opened a nice long position as soon as I realized the market wouldn't give me the floor I wanted to buy back in after I sold a bit.  Best decision I ever made to keep it open!  Almost time to close it though...
