Insightful Crypto — Issue #2
Hey Crypto Geeks,
This week we saw BTC moving in a better range as the last week i.e. from $10,250 to $11,560 which shows that we will close this week higher than the previous one. This a good sign, but more needs to happen before we can say that, Yes! we are back in the bull market.
This week we also saw Bill Gates calling out cryptocurrencies in his AMA. He said that they are responsible for causing more deaths as crypto allowed users to buy drugs online. Well, in this case, Microsoft Windows is the OS which allowed us to do this in the first place #Copied #Twitter so back at you :)
The United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) started a mass distribution of summons to everyone who is involved in blockchain and cryptocurrency deals. The aim is to get information about the cryptocurrency market for its better regulation.
