Hello cryptocurrency enthusiasts, traders, investors, innovators, miners, and advocates! I will be posting BitcoinNews articles and videos in this thread, from https://bitcoinnews.com/ . We cover the full spectrum of Bitcoin, blockchain, and cryptocurrency news with about 10 new stories being published per day. I hope you find the videos educational, and I will always be checking in to answer any questions, comments, or critiques.
 
To start, here is a video about hyperbitcoinization, an optimistic way to start this thread

OF course we could expect that this is all about blockchain and bitcoin is the dominant crypto and the first cryptocurrency in the market so there is no reason that bitcoinnews will be #1 in blockchain news. There is no need to think why bitcoinnews is #1 in blockchain news.
