He shared that the IEO platform may be live in the next few months. At this point in time, broker-dealer licenses have already been issued to Coinbase.

Poll of the DayHow much do you agree with this statement: "I often shill crypto to my friends." |
Why or why not? Share with me in the polls! |
What you said"How much do you agree with this statement: "The crypto sphere is still in a bubble."" The average vote was 3.6. |
"Why or why not?" No. It is here to stay, far too established to be a bubble.- Still far from being considered established, but I think it’s getting there. Crypto for the population of fearful to gamble on something my wife could say one year from the investment " CRYPTO CRYPTO YOU SAY" !!! " LOST FIFTY DOLLARS TO MY HUSBAND WHO IS LISTENING, AND HEARING! A CRYPTIC DREAM - Lol she must be a no-coiner Weeeell maybe just a lil' one... I dunno if 'big money' would allow a big bubble when they're finally in the middle of looking to invest and/or acquire BTC or any other alts to their portfolios, but this world takes pride in fudging up the simplest of things, so we'll see shan't we? - Hahah yeah that’s true. If this is a bubble, it’s the smallest bubble I’ve ever seen. - Lmao true. The 2017 run up was not even 1/5 the size of the dotcom bubble. there are some very good smart contract enabled blockchains available now. but regarding dapps we are yet to see anything interesting. i would say its a mix of bubble & some are very over valued. - Agreed. because it is such a new thing , which has not had a enough time to mature and develop - All in due time. Well... Yup theres still not much practical useage of crypto. It still has to prove itself. There are alt coins without practical use , have to prove themselves. So yay, we maybe in some bubble. More development, and tried and tested models in large scale has to happen, so there is real practical value in every crypto. - Yeah.. Too many useless Alts still in existence. - In need of a purge. It didn't hit 6500 yet for second time it has to come back to 6500 to 6100 to be "grounded"- Possibly… the final purge. The market is flat and repetitive - Lotsa consolidation going on. Final bubble will evolve once the financial bubble collapses ! - Something I'm really curious to see how it'll unravel. |
