Don't know why is it growing so fast but I'm liking it a lot. Yeah I know you are very excited about investing into bitcoin which is completely clear from your payday statement, lolz! Yeah it has been always good investment and the way it is now growing I believe more people will try to put their investment into it. May be the team is thinking that the bitcoin cash drama may kill ether market and hence they are trying to pump the coin. I mean this is just assumption and I'm not 100% sure about it. But I'm trying to stress myself on different facts why so, why now the ether is growing so erratically! Its good though and I do not want to loose the money over it for sure. So I will invest a lot now, as there is no time for the regrets. :-)
