The market is very unstable and you can not tell If it's going bearish or bullish. I advise y'all to forget predictions and start making a good profit now because future valuations are all speculations and guesses. When these reports are bullish take some off to the side lines, when news gets bearish start buying. "Keep it simple simple" that bear/ correction was the best thing that happened me. <But all thanks to Greg Nelson for his amazing skills for helping me to earn 11 Btc through trading chart. I believe we are in the spring phase.
Hope Mr Breast see you guys and what your doing… Maybe missing something here , why not create a crypto-project (rather than a crypto coin) and list on an exchange…its much easier for small investor/donate to give and its totally transparent etc etc..
