People said "
the next few months are slowly turning into a make or break time for Crypto" many many times already but nothing really substantial happened. Nonetheless Bitcoin is reaching new ATH (twice this year!) and it keeps going strong if you look it long term.
Many more merchants, some sane ASIC competition, etc.
Price fluctuation is inevitable, it is still a speculative market after all, isn't it?
As you said, risk what you can, and consider all the money invested as lost.
I'd say that more than 99% of people in civilized nations know about Bitcoins.
That's so wrong! I guess we are below 10% in western and 5% in east.
How can you get that number so wrong LOL

Edit: Also explain what "civilised" means...
