*** Bitcoin raging, altcoins dumping, 2x collapsing. The preponderance of news will be positive.

I'm expecting Difficulty to increase by singe digits in 5 days

Mempool - <1MB
mempool is highest during midday in the US.

Localbitcoins - $48M transacted last week ~1900 btc/day
Paxful volume hit $10M
Total over $58M public OTC. This number is lower than I'd like, but consistent. Week ended 10/7 before this latest rally. So I expect this number to jump drastically.

I was on Vortex's show with some great guests on Sunday. It was a lot of fun, and an honor to be on with great guests.

Still no news on LedgerX the bitcoin options trading platform.

WTF? SP500 recently had 6 consecutive closes at ATHs, hasn't happened since '99. I maintain we are close to the top.
