Generally I'm not into crypto, I do use cryptocurrencies but it is not my daily thing. I am not a speculator, or a day trader, nothing of the sort, I am an activist and journalist who is plugged into the anarcho-libertarian community. In the last two days I have caught a few seemingly unrelated post on social networks that could point to a major event in the crypto scene.
A Crypto Boom Could be on the way !
The first sign I came across was a Facebook post by non other than @jeffberwick the @dollarvigilante himself who posted "TFW [The face when] the Rothschilds contact you to buy and sell large amounts of crypto"
He goes on to say, "Not sure how I feel about this" and "by large I mean billions of dollars, fyi"
Though the post generated 100's of comments and questions these small bits of information were all that Jeff would let out. @JeffBerwick is well respected in the crypto community and known for making predictions surrounding the cryptocurrency market and other investment opportunities. Some have been right others not so much. He is also a social media influencer and YouTube personality and perfectly understands how easily he could use his influence to pump and dump coins at will.
I think if this was a pump and dumb then he would of said more, let out more details to pump a specific coin. This was more vague 'Rothschilds contact you to buy and sell large amounts of crypto' which Rothschilds ? The bankers, or some 2nd and 3rd even 4th cousins who stumbled across the @dollarvigilante on YouTube and want to get their feet wet. . So many unanswered questions, and had this been the only indicator of a major investment in crypto then I would of passed by with no excitement, and probably would not be writing this article.
Then this morning John McAfee, a cybersecurity legend tweeted this;
-Institutional investors are preparing to enter the cryptocurrency market with a vengeance. They are generally long term investors and will be pumping billions into the market.-
What !! Okay so @JeffBerwick and John Mcafee both in two days signaling that major investors are preparing to dump (( BILLIONS )) into the crypto market. This could be significant. John unlike Jeff responded to many questions and comments in the thread below the tweet. Saying "If you already sold you are an idiot. ICOs are long term investments" and repeatedly responding with "Read the news on institutional investors. You have a head. Figure it out" "Read the news on institutional investors my friend. Figure the fucker out", "No opinion. Just check the recent news on institutional investors. Please people. Use your own fucking heads." finally "No information other than what you have. I just applied reason and posted it. You could have posted it if you had thought it out." Read the full conversation here
So I took Johns advice; And boy oh boy are big things coming for the cryptocurrency market. First an article from 2 days ago in Fortune Why Coinbase's Cryptocurrency Business Could Jump 50%
Billionaire Mike Novogratz Launches Crypto Index For Institutional Investors.
And the major thing that is happening today is LMAX a UK foreign exchange trading venue based in London is launching a cryptocurrency exchange for institutional investors.. London is one of the banking centers of the world and a venue enticing Britain's institutional investors is on the way. This is major news that us small fish need to know. It will be interesting to see just how much volatility institutional investors are willing to stomach as more players enter into the cryptocurrency space.
This is not investment Advice.
I think this was always the logical next step. "first they ignore you, then they fight you, then you win"
