The World & Crypto with Rutkowski Edition #17
**March 7, 2021**
Welcome back to another edition of The World & Crypto with @Rutkowski I have some great news! Stimulus Checks for Americans!
Senate Passes Stimulus Package with Democrats!
The senate has passed the newest Stimulus Bill which is set to be signed by President Biden later this coming week, now if Biden takes as long as he did to start the Bill it could be May before he picks up the pen and signs off on it considering he isn't cutting any jobs or hurting the American people. Enough of the cracks at Biden.
The senate passed the package with 50 Democrats for the Package and 49 Republicans against the package, as we all know the Democrats planned to pass the bill without the support of the Republican Party.
Myself personally, I think we have a need for the stimulus monies, I don't think we needed to extend pandemic unemployment, I don't believe we needed the stimulus because of the China Virus, we needed the stimulus checks because of the political leadership that has wrecked the economy. The only way President Biden can compete with the records that President Trump set while in office, which in comparison won't be nothing to compare.
The major take away from this stimulus is the amount of people like myself that will be vesting into crypto along with the inflation of the USD that will impact prices of every market in a positive manner.
Bitcoin
Bitcoin back above $51,800 as of the time of writing this article. Bitcoin has been struggling the last week to get above $50K and actually stay, with the announcement of the Stimulus checks we have the Crypto Markets rally and we are expecting to see the stock Market rally tomorrow morning as well.
XRP
XRP is currently at .47 USD at the time of writing this, I still expect to see XRP at almost .80 USD this month alone, with the stimulus checks going out. I would say it is likely to be by the end of this month. We will find out, but it appears XRP has been following my support line.
XRP had a slight expected victory by any one who understands the law, A company whom has a contractual agreement with ripple was suing to be reimbursed for the purchase of XRP they has made under the grounds it was being deemed a security by the SEC however the SEC doesn't make this determination and the Judge does. Therefore the Judge ruled that in this specific case that company VS Ripple could sue under the contract until XRP has been deemed a security which is still up for litigation.
Ripple has filed a motion to dismiss this case, I think they stand a decent chance of winning the motion to dismiss but I wouldn't be surprised to see it being drug out even longer over the course of 2021 into 2022. That is the worse case scenario.
In response to the SEC VS RIPPLE, XRP Holders VS SEC have filed a law suit against the sec seeking damages from the harmful lawsuit filed against ripple that negatively impacted XRP. The SEC claims the exchanges that delisted XRP are to blame for the price impacts, not the SEC as they didn't force any exchanges to delist XRP which is a fact.
While they didn't force exchanges to delist XRP, it was heavily implied that the SEC would be going after the exchanges that continue to list XRP as well. That was what ultimately lead to the delisting of XRP. You can't really blame the exchanges in question for not wanting to take on the risk involved by continuing to list an asset that is being attacked by the SEC.
I hope the SEC is held fully accountable for the neglectful actions they took that hurt XRP holders whom folded out at a major loss, I was one of the many fortunate ones that had been on the XRP train for so long that my purchase price which averaged out to .07 to .10 USD Not everyone was lucky in that aspect.
HOT Holo Holochain
HOT Holochain is currently trading at .00307 at the time of writing this article, HOT is holding in the top 100 on CoinMarketCap.com and is currently #99 and up just over 21% for the last 7 days and is up just over 3% today alone. I have been extremely bullish towards HOT for a long time now, however it has been awhile since I have done any charting as reflected in the chart above.
#HoloMonday is a growing trend on twitter an effort by the Holo Community to gain more attention for HOT. HOT is a highly undervalued project that has been growing rapidly this year alone. HOT offers a nice platform for developers and the community is hoping to reach even more developers with the campaign on twitter. Please not that HOLOCHAIN themselves are not behind #HoloMonday it is purely the people whom believe in HOT like myself included.
BCH My Everything!
BCH at the time of writing this article is currently at $523.50 I just want to add that I am just as Bullish if not more Bullish on BCH than I am towards BTC itself. BCH is the predecessor of BTC and for that reason alone I believe BCH will follow in line with BTC nicely over the years.
I am still anticipating the move to $1,000.00 which would have happened for now if it wasn't for the major drop just a little over a week ago, just so happened at that time right before the drop I released how I believed BCH was about to take a major leg up. I know, I lost a bit of money, but I didn't fold my position and I am still hodling strong.
I am currently over .2 BCH working on my 1 BCH goal along side my goal of 1 BTC. I think we are going to see some major action here with BCH over the next 3 to 5 weeks that will get us back on target for the larger pump coming this summer time. I have a lot of faith in the community. I know @Read.Cashributed majorly to the success of BCH.
The transaction pull has grown larger despite every thing BCH is growing rapidly. BCH has potential to be a major payment option in the future. I don't think at this time we will ever see 6 figure BCH but we all know that in the world of crypto that anything is possible.
XLM
XLM at the time of writing this XLM is currently at .41 USD I have faith in XLM like I do XRP and my weed man as all 3 of them haven't let me down yet.
My Final Thoughts
I really do love crypto. I only have one regret about crypto that I share with almost anyone involved, I just regret not having bought more at cheaper prices than I already have. The World of Crypto is fascinating and I have been enjoying watching crypto slowly but surely take over traditional fiat systems. I know this year alone we have seen that pace rapidly increase due to the liking of the China Virus.
I however believe that our officials world wide are using crypto as a way to wipe out the worlds debt by further compounding debt on the traditional fiat systems to the point of collapse when every one will start using nothing but crypto and of course the old fashion barter items.
I think contrary to popular belief that Bitcoin will be the preferred currency of choice in which we value every thing based upon the USD standard. We already have World Leaders telling us that Bitcoin is headed in that direction, I am inclined to believe them. Especially considering the state of Florida in the United States allows residents to pay taxes in BTC as well as giving employees of the state the option to be paid wages in Bitcoin.
I mean, think about it. Could you imagine Friday receiving your paycheck in Bitcoin and by Monday your paycheck having increased by 10%? That is all the more reason to accept payments in Bitcoin. I know for a long time I have been using BitRefill in order to pay for a lot of stuff from ordering pizza, cell phone bills and shopping on Amazon.
I wish I could still have that Bitcoin that I spent considering the value of Bitcoin today compared to what it was than. That is a major reason why I find it hard for someone to want to actually spend Bitcoin as it is more valuable to hold than to spend on anything. I get the purpose of Bitcoin for major transactions like buying a Tesla, Home or even land.
Either way this season plays out, we have already witnessed history being wrote over and over again in the crypto market. I know we are just on the horizon of something greater than most people can begin to fathom. the overall crypto market cap is at $1.593 Trillion Dollars USD and growing.
That is a lot of money, but when you think about the amount of money currently being held by the Fiat systems we aren't even close to 5% of our potential market cap as we start to see even more people transfer money from Fiat into Crypto we will start see rather similar ratio that was pointed out the other day by XRPBAGS on YouTube when he was speaking in regards to the amount of people still using dial up internet vs high speed internet.
Although the logic is entertaining, it doesn't really apply under these circumstances since it is totally different. The correlation doesn't even fit. People are stuck using outdated dial up internet not by choice. They use dial up because they don't have high speed available in there areas. Where I live at you can't get high speed as no providers come out this far into the sticks. I don't use dial up, I use a mobile hotspot instead. Giving the option of high speed internet which in most cases is cheaper than dial up, I am pretty sure every one would take high speed internet and save money while enjoying faster internet speeds.
As always, Thanks for reading, God Bless You and Stay Healthy!
Bitcoin, Stimulus Checks and Publicity! What that means for Bitcoin & Crypto?
Bitcoin is on the move!
Bitcoin above $51,000.00 at the time of writing this article. We have a lot of influencers that are already anticipating $62K Bitcoin this week alone. While I have been anticipating the climb back above $50K that last few days I think we still may another dip below $50K at this point I don't think we want to see the price below $49K in order for the major influencers on You Tube to be correct, but it is Bitcoin we are talking about here and anything is possible.
Stimulus Checks For Americans
The Senate passed the China Virus Bill through the Senate with 50 Democrat votes for the bill and 49 Republican votes against the bill. What does this mean for Americans like myself? To be honest, it means I will end up having to pay the government back $5,000.00 in taxes alone just for a $1,400.00 Stimulus check. Yes, this isn't free money contrary to popular belief.
However the money is going to inflate the USD and in turn we will see a major spike in the Stock Markets, Crypto Markets and basically anything that values itself based upon the USD. The reason this will effect Crypto Markets heavily isn't just the fact that plenty of people will be vesting a lot of this stimulus money into the crypto market, mainly Bitcoin and other heavily popular Crypto's at the moment.
The main reason will be the inflation effect from the USD that have been put into Bitcoin and other crypto's. I know a lot of people may disagree with this assumption but we have seen it time and time again. Look back to March 2020 when the first Stimulus Package for the China Virus was sent out. Bitcoin started a major rally to the upside, again in February 2020 when President Trump issued the $600.00 Stimulus Checks we seen Bitcoin turn from slightly bearish into Bullish again until we hit our debatable high of somewhere between $57K to $62K mainly just depends on what platform you trade on as to which Bitcoin High you are going with.
For the sake of this article I'll say $58K is the current all time high and I am thinking that we will see a 3 week run up to $84K with a drop back to $60K or worse case scenario higher $50K levels before we continue the bull run above $100K. I find these pull backs to be highly crucial to the success of the Bitcoin Bull Run. I am still sticking with my very reasonable and yet humble end of year price at $137K.
Why am I so Bullish on Bitcoin?
Why would I not be? I know this area is highly debatable by people whom think Bitcoin is played out, "We have so many currencies that are more efficient than Bitcoin" while I can not and will not disagree with those facts, I can't agree with the Bitcoin not being worth the investment, short term or long term. 300x gains are nothing to stick your nose up to.
A lot of times you will find that the people trying to get you to stay away from Bitcoin have plenty of other currencies they would rather you invest heavily into so they can dump on you. I am not saying that you won't get dumped on in Bitcoin because you will get dumped on in any crypto that you vest in. I know this is a scary reality that we have to face when investing, but if you hold firm you will always get back in the green, always try to avoid selling anything at a loss unless you can't help it.
I have put a lot of money into Bitcoin and have continued to see gains that have helped me support my family. I have not been paid by workers comp since October of 2020 I have been living off of Crypto alone. Bitcoin has been the major factor of the income.
What do rich people know that we don't?
The top 1% the wealthiest of the wealthy are currently investing in Bitcoin, researching crypto, developing crypto. This fact alone is keeping me Bullish, the fact that 2,000 BTC are being stashed away by major corporations everyday and we are not producing enough Bitcoin to meet that demand due to all the halving's that we have had in Bitcoin.
These facts alone tell me that we produce an extra 328.5K Bitcoin per year while we are having Corporations alone buy up 730K per year at a rate of 2,000 per day. On top of the corporations doing this, you have people like myself whom are actively doing the same thing. Now, how could I not be Bullish on these facts alone?
Everything in the World comes down to speculation, supply and demand. Bitcoin is high on all 3 of these list. Low supply, High Demand and a ton of speculation. I know that we are headed straight up to $1,000,000.00 over the next 3 years alone. Look at Uni Socks selling for over $166,000.00 USD just days ago. That is nothing in comparison to where Bitcoin is headed.
Let's take a look at my Bitcoin Charts
While I am not the best at charting I have been learning a lot. I have indeed learned enough to know that Chart pattern training is an effective means of trading anything. Can anyone predict 100% what is going to happen to Bitcoin every time? No, and if they say they can, you shouldn't be taking any advice from them.
The best traders I have learned from always advocate to do your own research and they will even tell you that pattern trading isn't 100% but it will give you a better understanding of the markets and where they are heading.
The chart above gives me the indication that we are away from the bearish moments that we had and we are extremely bullish in light of the stimulus check news we are currently above $51.5K and to be honest we should see a slight pullback when he hit the next resistance level. I would hope for it blow past the resistance level and turn it to support and keep rallying ahead towards the All Time High.
The red line being the resistance at almost $52.8K is where I am looking at for the next pull back. The chart below while mostly uncharted is the path that I believe Bitcoin will start to follow over the next week. Provided everything continues at the rate we are seeing right now. Now with any of my predictions I want you to keep in mind that I am not a financial advisor nor am I giving you advice. I am merely documenting how I trade.
I will be paying close attention to the next 3 levels and I will also be expecting to see pull backs at each of those levels with the largest pull back to be at $84K however we won't really know until that time comes. I think we have enough reason to see major pull backs in the 80K range. We are moving closer to uncharted territory everyday, no one can really predict the future.
My Final Thoughts
Bitcoin has blown up way past the expectations that I had not even a year ago when I started blogging about Crypto. I seen the stock market about to crash, stimulus talks, the china virus and the major factor was the halving of bitcoin in 2020 which always has lead to a bullish market. I don't think you have to have a very high IQ to look at the data presented from Bitcoin on the charts to realize that it is headed in an upward trajectory over the long term.
We have major debates online about when the Bull Cycle will end, I can tell you this much, September to October based upon previous cycles would be the time to be highly skeptical. I don't think we have to start talking about the Bearish cycle beginning until these corporations and other wealthy investors stop purchasing Bitcoin in excess of what is mined daily. Once we start to see this phase take a decline we should all anticipate a large dump that will lead directly into the next bull cycle.
How long would a bearish cycle last? In my opinion not long at all. I have been saying since I started blogging about Bitcoin that we are not looking at a typical market in comparison to the previous bull cycles even though history tends to repeat itself over and over again with the exception of some thing major changing the game. 2020 and 2021 have proven so far that the game has changed, we have laws and regulations in the crypto communities.
The SEC has even stated that Bitcoin at this rate will be the next USD in terms of trade. The United States is working hard at developing a digital dollar which will hopefully be released this year, I am banking on Ripple being a major part of this and hopefully XRP being a key factor. I wouldn't bet my entire savings on this, but I would recommend any one to hold at least 200 XRP in anticipation of what could happen.
Could you imagine having held 200 Bitcoin? I don't want to have that regret ever again lol... My main goal with Bitcoin is to have a whole Bitcoin that I plan to lock away for safe storage for the long run. Honestly at the current price of $51,605.50 you can expect to be at least a millionaire by 2026 and that isn't a bad long term investment. I still own some stocks in about 5 companies that I will hold until I absolutely can't hold anymore.
I wouldn't ever invest any more money into anything beside Tesla or crypto and property.
As always, Thanks for reading, God Bless You and Stay Healthy!

F2POOL at it again! Dumping around 7,000 BTC
F2POOL can be blamed for the price dip seen earlier today as they distributed 7,000 BTC to the miners within it's mining pool. I am honestly starting to think that F2POOL is working with others in an effort to create better buying opportunities for the big shot players or they are just distributing weekly BTC earnings to those that mined them. However 7k BTC is enough to effect the Market so maybe it's time they start looking at a better approach for distribution.
Honestly, I think that F2POOL triggered price corrections are a healthy factor for the Crypto Community to an extent. Could you imagine Michael Saylor moving his Bitcoin to an exchange, I bet we would see $20K Bitcoin again. These are serious risk that are involved with the corporations entering into Crypto. They have the capital to effect the prices and break the entire system. Luckily they have more to benefit from building the infrastructure than destroying it.
We should always be mindful of this surreal possibility.
Bitcoin is currently at $48,600.00 and still stuck in what appears to be a downward trend, I however look for this trend to turn extremely bullish in light of the recent dump, but if we can't make it above the downward trend we could revisit $44K or lower again. Typically when Bitcoin gets rejected too much it will take a larger dip.
I am not saying that is what I expect to happen, although I can't rule out another dip from this point. Ideally I want to see Bitcoin build support above $50K and than go beyond $60K at this point I don't think we will see the major rejection at $62K as I believe we are still rebounding from that rejection. Bitcoin didn't go above $58K you may say, but yes it went to $62,800 on Bitrue and as low as $6K on another exchange...
Crazy, I know. Everything that I have seen screams that we are about to take major leg up above $60K I still can't confirm for a fact that I am right. I could be wrong, with this market I have said plenty of times that no one including myself can predict which direction the markets will go in the future and what will happen in terms of price corrections along the way.
We have way too many determining factors that control the prices of Crypto and they are subject to change at any point in time, nothing is written in stone, however we can tell based upon analyzing past trends what should ideally happen. Kind of like predicting the weather using the almanac and averaging out daily temps and weather to assume that everything repeats within certain ranges.
If that is the case with Bitcoin ideally my $137K prediction by end of 2021 should be extremely accurate.
Hot Holochain is slowly getting the long awaited recognition by You Tubers whom are shocked that it is already #98 on Coin Market Cap. The thing is, Holochain is highly undervalued and should be a decent part of any ones portfolio that likes to make a lot of money.
I have been investing in Holochain since for a few years now and so far the only regret that I have had is the fact I have bought so much more than I already own. Hot is still at the perfect entry price as it seems to be stuck on extremely bullish uptrend and with #HoloMonday starting to trend on twitter the FOMO will be at an extremely high level.
The project itself has more potential than most projects that are valued higher. I have been saying since my original purchase that Holochain would be my ticket to Millions. I just get extremely anxious waiting for that time to happen. I know it is in order, Holo Hot Holochain will make it to the moon for a pit stop on the way to mars and beyond.
BCH is currently at $524.46 and appears to have hit it's bottom at $431.14 and has built that level as a major support level. If and only if we dip below that level we will be in for some serious trouble. We have awhile to go before we are back in the same trend as before however as we enter back to the previous trend it will take #BCH over $1K in my opinion.
I didn't expect the last F2POOL dump to effect BCH in the manner that it did, but it did and hopefully you didn't sell off the BCH that you already had unless you sold at $700 and bought back in at $400 and in which case, congrats on the smart play. I keep my BCH locked away so I am not tempted to trade and play with it as much as I do Bitcoin and others.
BCH, HOT, XRP, XLM and ETC are the only Crypto Currencies I won't trade or sell. I hold these as part of my retirement plan. Hopefully they get me to retirement before I am 40 years old. I know BCH as major potential of making this happen as well as HOT
XRP is currently at .43 USD per XRP and I am monitoring it closely as we will breaking lose from the current trend within the next 44 hours as the longest time frame. I am not sure whether or not we will see a higher trend but at this time I am eyeing .73 USD to .84 USD as the next target.
Bullish or Bearish ? You decide!
The biggest question right now that could be holding the market back from exploding beyond new levels is the good ole Bullish or Bearish factor. I think we are still bullish as hell and I haven't seen anything that makes me thing otherwise, I know we had a very similar price correction to the current one in January and within 2 weeks we turned extremely bullish.
My advice here, don't listen to me or anyone else whether we are Bullish or not, I have ideas that may be correct, than again we could be entering into a bearish cycle. last year during this time we seen a major drop in the market as we headed towards stimulus checks. This could still happen although the stimulus checks in my opinion will turn us even more bullish as well as the tax season.
My Final Thoughts
This past year alone has been like something out of a sci fi movie and we continue to write history as politicians still attempt to re-write history. We are moving forward with hopes that society will return to a some what normal within the near future and we will all be able to un mask ourselves and put aside differences and grow as a society together.
I know we have all been through a lot and honestly I do believe that without what we have been through we wouldn't be where we are today with crypto currencies and the blockchain technologies that are taking over the world. This is a very critical time in human history as these days will defines us a 100 years from now, like the Baby Boomer, Spanish Flu, World War 1 & 2 and the Great Depression.
The censorship, cancel cultural. Ultimately world leaders have lead to the growth of crypto currencies and the current China Virus aka Covid spread up the process that has moved us forward by ten plus years. We would not be this far along without the pandemic. I hate to give a lot of credit to something that has taken so many lives.
I am one of those people that don't believe in the severity that propaganda has pushed the masses into believing. I don't think we needed to destroy economies and hurt the already poor people even more than the world already has. overall Covid-19 has killed a lot of people, when you factor in the amount of people that die yearly from disease, obesity and natural causes Covid-19 isn't as serious as it has been portrayed to be.
I am not saying don't wear mask, don't get vaccinated. I am just saying, human kind survived the Spanish Flu which was actually 100 times worse than this. Everyone regardless of a pandemic should use proper hygiene to stop the spread of viruses and protect those whom are most vulnerable to death by sickness.
I can only think of one reason why the Pandemic was played out to the extent that it was and that takes to the Holy Bible. The mark of the beast. Yeah, Crypto currencies will be the only way to transact in the future. It is written in the Bible, a long time before we was even thought of. Now we have entered that time that has be prophesied over centuries by people whom couldn't even fathom the technology that they seen.
The New World Order has to see a collapse in global currencies in order to come to light. The Biblical sense we will see a person who comes to the world preaching peace to everyone and they will start a pact, aka peace treaty that will lead to the Rapture as promised by God.
Whether or not you believe in God is up to you, but if you read the Bible and comprehend what it is saying you would be scared. Especially when you take in to account that history tends to repeat itself, we have had wars happening for the last 21 years now that have grown to be a part of life. We have major tension between world leaders that will result in World War 3 with in the short term future.
We have seen plenty of times that pandemics lead to depressions which leads to wars. Nostradamus has plenty of valid predictions using these principles that have actually happened and he predicted zombies for this year.
I am not sure what the future holds but a saying that comes to mind is it always gets worse before it gets better.
As always, thanks for reading, God Bless You and Stay Healthy!
Bitcoin! Bull Run Over? Micro Strategy Stacking Sats!
Bitcoin $48,337 and working it's way towards $50K again
Bitcoin has been one wild ride lately with price fluctuations indicating a ton of resistance as well as a ton of support at different levels. While we still don't know for sure if we will see the upper $30K range again or not, I would predict that if we did, it would be short live by a candle stick in a blink of an eye.
I believe we would already be above $50K right now if it wasn't for the F2Pool distribution earlier today with some where around 8,000 BTC We have seen countless times how transactions of this magnitude lowers the cost of Bitcoin with major transfers. Bitcoin tends to rebound smoothly from said corrections and usually has a bullish upside afterwards.
We seen the previous rejection at the $50K
Bitcoin still seems to be stuck on the downward trend and waiting to break above it. While we could hit the $50K level before midnight, it still is likely not to happen till the over night hours. While the popular fear being that Bitcoin is going to tank majorly from here, I tend to always seem to disagree.
When the markets are dipping we tend to see the weak hands fold and the corporations start stacking more satoshi's while the small guys lose money. We didn't see this trend during 2017 or 2013 We have had a lot of major financial advisors warn that when we see dips like this that corporations would be stock piling even more Bitcoin.
This will eventually lead to the major shortage that these corporations want to see. The whole supply and demand factor. You may be thinking to yourself, this guy is a joke, but in all actuality people like Michael Saylor are doing major things for Bitcoin. They are taking advantage of the weak minded people who see a small dip in the larger spectrum of things and bail out in order to obtain Bitcoin a further discount.
Saylor has been buying dips every time Bitcoin has corrections like this and when you dollar average his Bitcoin comes to a price of $23,000 per #BTC for a total of $2.16 Billion invested, Yes, Michael Saylor's Bitcoin is now worth $5 Billion almost and Saylor is not going to stop buying anytime soon. In fact, Michael Saylor has been coaching corporations on how to buy Bitcoin using the same strategies that he is currently using.
The downfall to people like us? Well, I am not an expert, but that tells me this isn't your average Bull Run that Bitcoin is headed to a whole new level that has been dreamed of by millions since it's conception and the time for #Crypto is now. Bitcoin isn't going to ever go anywhere except for private wallets and different exchanges, financial institutions like Square, Paypal, Webull, RobinScam and so many others.
We have insurance companies, stores and other companies stock piling Bitcoin. What exactly is driving the Bitcoin Madness to this whole new level? Could it be?
Why, yes it could be, but that isn't what I think it exactly is. I believe that FOMO will have it's time where people are buying more so than corporations. I know a lot of normal people are investing into Bitcoin on a regular basis like myself. I know a lot of people consider themselves to be Gem Hunters looking for the next best project to make millions if not billions of dollars on.
I am not a so called "Bitcoin Maxi" I see Bitcoin has the currency for purchasing a mansion, cars and other major purchases of that nature. Bitcoin is more valuable to hold than to sell. While people tell you Bitcoin doesn't offer the same returns as other crypto currencies do, they are right to an extent.
I proved this by using #BlockFi and depositing $25 in October of 2020 and by January of 2021 that $25.00 had turned into $125.00 and also earned interest on the way up. Now the thing is, if you can buy 100,000 tokens for $10.00 and they hit .01 you just make a hell of a return.
That is why a lot of people criticize Bitcoin, but that doesn't mean anything. Most of the time when some one hits a large pay day from small cap tokens that blow up, that money floods towards Bitcoin in a major way. Just watch the flow of money, Bitcoin tends to see a lot of it.
I know some will say, but Ethereum does more transactions or Ethereum has large volumes daily but the thing is, are these people really vested into Ethereum or just another ERC-20 Token that is better than Ethereum. A lot of times you will find that people only use Ethereum for the underlying Tokens versus Ethereum itself. Please don't take that the wrong way, Ethereum is still heavily invested in by a lot of people.
I just believe that as we see these ERC-20 Tokens start heavily migrating to other Blockchains we will see a large decrease in Ethereum. We aren't going to see the same with Bitcoin. That is why I bank on Bitcoin more so than Ethereum.
My Final Thoughts
Bitcoin is said to one day replace #Gold which it very clearly already is doing so. Bitcoin won't replace Gold in the sense that a lot of people speculate that it will. I know this fact still tends to make a massive amount of people Pissed Off and I have sparked a ton of out rage by stating #Facts I know I have and to be honest, I kind of like it.
I know I am right and they know they are wrong but they won't face the facts the only way Bitcoin is taking over gold is by store of value. These people want you to believe that #Gold will be utterly useless because the powerful Bitcoin is going to take it's place. That would be like me saying, #HOT #HOLO #HOLOCHAIN is going to replace Aluminum.
The facts are that Aluminum will always have it's uses, it will always have a value based upon the supply and demand as determined by those uses. I honestly believe the major factors of the Gold price once the older generations that believe in Gold phase out will be left to the jewelry and manufacturing industry to determine it's value.
Whether you want to believe that other metals will take it's place, that is highly unlikely due to the effectiveness of Gold for electronics and jewelry.
Bitcoin From $58K down to $44K What Happened??
Bitcoin!
What a wild ride, I lost a couple hundred dollars on a stop loss with leverage trading, thousands of people lost millions of dollars, Bitrue #BTC hit $62K during the price correction. We have plenty of people speculating that the Bull Run is over and many more that say NO, the Bull Run is not over yet.
My last article when I was talking about BTC I was talking about how dangerous the upward momentum was getting, we needed a decent pull back at $52K in order to hold past $60K with out any major turbulence. Sunday night had me rather confused as I was expecting a rather large dump to take place but the price just kept climbing upwards with great momentum.
So, what do I think will happen? Until we hit this major wall of resistance we was headed right towards $62K which to be technical, I called a major correction at $62K and we did reach that on Bitrue. that would mean according to Bitrue Bitcoin corrected $18k all the way to $44K
Now, provided everything keeps going the way it was, we may be within a slight cool down period as we near March before we actually test our previous all time high, whether you want to look at it as Bitrue $62K or the other exchanges that say around $58K either way still a $14K to $18K correction which was significant.
I think that the danger probably will delay the FOMO for a little while longer while corporations and smart individuals take advantage of the dip, the other day we was seeing a sea of red, the traditional markets also seen a sea of red, although today has been a great big sea of green, we still may not be out of the woods yet.
We still have a lot of comparison with the previous bull cycles, we have a surreal possibility of another 15% to 20% correction that could happen, however I really don't want to see a larger correction than this. A larger correction that would be like the previous Bull Runs would have great implications that we are in the same Bull Cycle that is bound to repeat itself again.
I seriously think we are seeing strong market manipulation that allowed for a larger number of individuals to get in on Bitcoin at a reduced price and costed people to jump ship faster than they had FOMOED in. That is just my opinion on what implications we need to watch for, personally I am banking on Bull Run still in effect and I am still eyeing the $137K year high for this year.
I have 3 reasons why I think we seen the major pull back where we did. Tether being the number one reason. We all know that when China's Bitcoin restrictions happened that the China traffic quickly migrated to Tether. We can't necessarily prove this fact, but the charts support my claims 100% take that with a grain of salt, but the facts that Tether was in a court room Monday on some serious allegations of inflating Bitcoin beyond actual backing was a major red flag for high profiled investors.
I believe these investors were smart enough to hedge against the surreal possibility that Tether had been committing fraud, which in turn added to the major sell off of all assets to lock in profits just in case this claim materialized into something worse than that of the SEC VS RIPPLE. Instead Tether paid almost $19 Million USD to New York, USA courts to settle the suit an now the green flags are flowing.
The funding index was above .1% which I am not an expert in this area but major speculation here that investors started pulling out of the markets in order to lower the funding rates to nominal usage levels. We can also add the BOT speculation that BOTS could be to blame for this as well. I am not going to argue against the power of Artificial Intelligence, I know for a fact that if I had a team of expert programmers that I could develop an unstoppable A.I. that could make trillions of dollars.
F2POOL has been largely accused of dumping on the Bitcoin Market by a man on You Tube that goes by Bit Boy, I don't encourage anyone to follow this man for actual advice. I personally watch his channel for the same reason I follow along with all of the pump and dump channels. I have to be aware of which tokens are being manipulate by large groups of individuals.
Kind of similar to how I made a decent return on the XRP pump and dump simply because I knew what was going to happen, I followed the Pumpers and I followed the people who bought XRP for nothing more than to dump at the High. I made decent money off of this. Is it okay what these groups are doing? I guess it depends on what side of the aisle you come from. Personally no difference than Wal Street doing the same thing to hard working Americans 5 days a week, 52 weeks a year except banking holidays.
Now onto F2POOL in case you was blind enough to believe the fuss online implicating them as being solely responsible for "Market Manipulations" I am against large entities whom would have overwhelming control over any network, that would defeat the purposes of a decentralized currency, would it not?
F2POOL is nothing more than a Pool of Miners, Miners whom come from all around the world, they tend to pool together mining resources which greatly increases the pools chance of mining Bitcoin. The more people involved the higher the hash rate, higher the hash rate, higher the chances are of making money.
Now simply because F2POOL sends thousands of Bitcoins to exchange addresses doesn't implicated them of selling off Bitcoin, that would implicate individual miners selling Bitcoin, should we expect people to spend hundreds of thousands of dollars to mine Bitcoin and not be allowed to cash profits to pay bills, eat and live a luxurious life style?
I know I want to invest in mining and I will sell whatever I mine to pay for the cost of Mining as well as to invest in mining even more Bitcoin. So, yeah, when we see Mining Pools distribute rewards with the majority flowing to exchange addresses it can impact the market momentarily. The market sees this as a potential red flag, which tends to correct itself within a day.
Finally, the crowd that has been attracted on the FOMO standards because they seen a dramatic increase in prices and they themselves got scared they would miss the next big wave folded out at the on sight of this dip faster than they FOMOED in.
Where is Bitcoin Now?
Bitcoin right now is about $49.5K and working up towards retesting $52K resistance again, I look for that test to be around midnight and provided we flip that level to a support level we could be headed back to the all time high before Friday. Than again we could be stuck in a sideways trend as people cool down from the major correction that we just witnessed.
Right now on my 4 Hour chart it looks like we are about to be moving towards the upside, that hasn't been confirmed yet but has a strong chance of going up or sliding back down around the lower $46K levels
My Final Thoughts
"Double Digit Corrections Bring Double Digit Gains" Bullzilla Youtuber
I love that saying, also "The Best Time To Buy is When There is Blood in the Streets" unknown.
Two very true opinions that have made me the most money in my history of investing, when you see the next major asset in humankinds history take a deep dive you can almost expect the bounce back effect to be equal to or greater than that dive. I for one am hoping to see $90K from this pull back.
I know we will have a couple different levels where people will take profits, Mining pools distributing rewards that will affect the market prices as well as the FOMO crowd, I think we are good for now on scandals, I know India has been on a role with banning crypto again. I know that India wants to preserve there native currency which what government powers don't? Besides the USA, Saudi Arabia, China and so many more that are currently moving towards the "Digital Revolution" of money.
The biggest coming of technology since the dot com era, we are seeing government acceptance that is mind blowing considering the out look on Bitcoin just at the beginning of 2020 when I was telling people that we would see the stock market crash and money flood into crypto from corporations wanting to safe guard against USD inflation and make some real returns on idle money.
We all know that millionaires want nothing more than money, they want the money they hold to make more money, which is why they stay rich while most of the world stays poor. When you see the Elite rushing to snatch a valuable asset as they pressure political puppets to pave the way, you know you are onto something major.
We have been under attack in this realm since before Satoshi went into hiding or he was assassinated, we will most likely never know what happened to the famous Satoshi. We can see that we are clearly entering the Green Light phase of this major operation where we see politicians that are vested in crypto. States legalizing crypto investing, Countries forming policies that allow for Crypto Currencies to be used.
Companies like Ripple, Stellar, Holochain and more that working hard to change the way we network and devices work with each other on blockchains. We are seeing the scariest transformation of technology since the first A.I. was programmed back in the 60's all of the people whom doubted Bitcoin for years are now the ones trying to buy the dips and take profits to get even more BTC.
We will continue to see negative stories from time to time about crypto that will be followed up by positive stories from the same fake news sources such as CNN just to name one of the fakest News sources besides the New York Times... Just wait for the next decade when they all come out saying stuff like, "I told you this Bitcoin thing was the next bid thing!"
As always, Thanks for Reading, God Bless You and Stay Healthy!
BCH Price Predictions & Targets
Bitcoin Cash BCH
BCH is currently fighting it's way up above $700.00 with major resistance expected the $700.00 level $743 level and the $827 level as well. I think Bitcoin will rally up to it's all time High once again and than over come that all time High in the same way Bitcoin has continued to set all time highs from 2020 to date
The Chart above is what I am looking at in the terms of resistance for BCH, I feel like we are going into a decent Sunday Correction and we will be rebounding from that over night. I am guessing that we will be headed over $750 on the next leg up and than up and to the $827.00 resistance level.
We are currently caught in the Sunday downwards triangle and we could brake above or below at any minute now, I am going to take it as a decent time to open some BCH leverage trades eyeing around $640 as a buy in target and I will most likely take profit at $750.00 provided everything continues they way I think it will at this point in time.
I am not a financial advisor and this is not financial advice.
My Final Thoughts
I love some BCH! Who doesn't? Other than the communities of haters that love other crypto's and want only their crypto to be the choice of masses. I love the the speed and cost efficiency of BCH. BCH offers a lot to the world collectively. The returns on BCH alone could be life changing for a lot of individuals worldwide. The smart ones that is.
I look for BCH soar up to $20K like it's predecessor has already done twice, being realistic that would only be 3.5x the current all time high of BCH and we all know that in the Crypto World this is more than plausible. I am probably more shocked that Ethereum is still higher than BCH at this point in time, but that will not always be the case.
We are some of the lucky few that are building up bags of BCH the way I wish I would have done with Bitcoin, but I was busy else where. I know the ROI that BCH offers is amazing, however we have so many new Crypto's that have emerged that will blow away the returns of BCH in the short term future, but long term where it really counts? BCH will outperform most.
I don't look for BCH to become the global currency. The global currency will most like be something stable, kind of like a unit of measurement. My theory is that we will most likely continue to value stuff with the USD comparison. When you walk into a store you will have a terminal that has a scannable bar code with each transaction. Our BCH or whatever Crypto we send will initiate a smart contract where the retailer receives they crypto of their choice and the consumer sends the crypto of their choice.
Behind the scenes Crypto A. goes to Exchange for Crypto B. and Crypto B is automatically transferred to the retailer. I think every crypto will integrated into the system to allow everyone the ease of access. Currently people don't want to spend Crypto on anything.. I mean honestly, I don't like the ideal of paying in crypto although everything I purchase is from Crypto. Literally. I have 1.99 USD in my checking account.
I live off of Crypto alone, When I need to purchase something in USD it cost me about $4 to transfer funds around to make a purchase at Wal Mart or a gas station. Anyways, I will review these predictions tomorrow night once we know how wrong or right I was.
I thank you for Reading, God Bless You and Stay Healthy!
Cardano ADA What is it? Should You Own Some?
ADA Cardano
ADA is the Native Token of Cardano and is currently trading at $1.10 per Token. Cardano named it's Native Token ADA after a 19th-century mathematician who was recognized as the first computer programmer, the daughter of renowned poet Lord Byron. Ada Lovelace.
The official Cardano website stresses the importance of keeping your Cardano safe and your Private Keys Private. I for one applaud them for stressing that within the first 3 paragraphs of their website. They recommend the Daedalus Wallet. That recommendation isn't mine, solely Cardano. I did download the wallet and after I write this article I do plan on installing the wallet and checking it out. I am a fan of Exodus Wallet but in order to be in the World of Crypto you have to open to trying new technology. https://daedaluswallet.io/en/download/
Cardano, "A groundbreaking proof of stake blockchain network" focuses on the DAPP side of the Blockchain by aiming to achieve scalability, interoperability and sustainability. Cardano was designed with the hopes of being the platform of choice for developers in large scale applications or "mission critical DAPPS that will underpin the economy of the future."
Cardano prides itself in being open source, allowing for easier development beyond the means of it's number one competitor Ethereum, while other projects such as Holochain exist with the same goals in mind, Cardano has major backers driving the Cardano ADA Train. Cardano was designed by a global team of experts who are leaders in disciplines ranging from distributed sustems to programing languages and game theory, also jointly developed by IOHK and partners. IOJK develops the technology while the Cardano Foundation is responsible for supervising the development and promoting Cardano.
That last sentence is a bit scary, to me, I believe the underlying value that was brought to the Ethereum Network was because of the man responsible for programing Ethereum and promoting it as well. Since he programmed Ethereum he was an expert at promoting it. I'd personally rather hear the programmers and developers more so than the Foundation responsible for promoting it. The Cardano Foundation considers themselves to be nothing more than custodians that operate the network in a non-decentralized way. Although they plan on releasing it to be completely decentralized and governed by the community in the future once it is able to sustain the system.
"**GOGUEN**
**Smart Contracts**
With the integration of smart contracts, the Goguen era represents a big step forwards in capability for the Cardano network. Where the Shelley era decentralizes the core of the system, Goguen adds the ability to build decentralized applications (DApps) on Cardano's solid foundation of peer-reviewed research and high-assurance development.
The work for Goguen has been under way in parallel with Shelley, and when complete will allow users from technical and non-technical backgrounds to create and execute functional smart contracts on the Cardano network. One of the goals for the Goguen era has been the creation of Plutus, a purpose-built smart contract development language and execution platform using the functional programming language Haskell. Plutus is already available for testing and brings the benefits of functional programming to smart contract creation. It also allows one code base to support both on and off-chain components, improving the coherency and usability of the development experience compared with existing smart contract implementations. https://testnet.iohkdev.io/plutus/
The Goguen era also encompasses work to make Cardano accessible to wider audiences via Marlowe, allowing financial and business experts with no previous technical knowledge to create smart contracts. Marlowe is a high-level, domain-specific language (DSL) for financial contracts which is built on Plutus. Marlowe comes with the Marlowe Playground, an easy-to-use application-building platform that non-programmers can use to build financial smart contracts. Together, Marlowe and the Marlowe Playground simplify the process of creating smart contracts for financial applications, allowing subject matter experts to directly contribute without requiring deep programming skills. The combination of Plutus and Marlowe will enable a new class of enterprise-level smart contracts with verified functionality, capable of underpinning large scale implementations in the real world. https://testnet.iohkdev.io/marlowe/ https://testnet.iohkdev.io/en/marlowe/tools/marlowe-playground/
As well as adding functionality in the form of smart contracts, Goguen will also see improvements to the core Cardano offering. Most significantly, the addition of a multi-currency ledger will extend the usefulness of Cardano even further, enabling users to create new natively-supported tokens. This will allow the creation of fungible and non-fungible tokens, supporting the creation of new cryptocurrencies on Cardano as well as the tokenization of many types of digital and physical assets. Another benefit will be easier integration of smart contracts and DApps involving multiple cryptocurrencies.
The Goguen era represents a step change in the abilities of Cardano, opening the way to the development of enterprise-level, mission-critical, decentralized smart contract applications, with even more exciting things to come during the Basho and Voltaire eras." Source https://roadmap.cardano.org/en/goguen/
My Final Thoughts
While Cardano doesn't seem to have as much information as most Crypto's on their own site, they still have a strong chance of doing some major things in the World of Crypto. I read a tweet earlier that said, "What if Ethereum is the Myspace of Crypto."
That comparison alone is brilliant. I love it. Ethereum will forever be known as the Crypto that brought smart contracts and the ERC-20 Toke Era about. Ethereum alone isn't a sustainable solution for mass majority of individuals whom can't afford $200 per transaction which is insane when you think about all of the other choices whom don't have insane gas fees.
I understand the need for gas fees in order to remain decentralized, miners have expenses and they deserve to be rewarded for that hard work, you know, plugging in a miner and tweaking some settings and collecting money. I know, it doesn't sound hard, but without these people whom continue to mine BTC and other cryptos we wouldn't have the networks that we have now. They have major expenses involved with mining and they deserve what they make, but $200 per transaction is beyond reasonable and fair.
That is why Crypto's like Cardano will be major, kind of like a tidal wave in the community of crypto until ultimately the development community chooses which platform they love the most and we see that platform out grow all of the current platforms, ultimately developers will decide which Crypto becomes the Facebook, Twitter of Crypto.
I like the idea of Cardano, I have made a decent amount off of Cardano, so I can't complain in that aspect. I don't really know of any DAPPS that are going to launch on Cardano that would be of interest to myself. I do know that they have major financial backers. A lot of Crypto You Tubers are on board the Cardano Train.
I believe it could easily range somewhere from $5.00 all the way up to $45.00 over a few years. I don't think we are going to Ethereum style adoption anytime soon with Cardano. The current price as of now in my opinion is heavily over priced based upon speculation and belief of what it could replace.
The facts are, it is going to be extremely hard to compete with Ethereum, especially if Ethereum can fix the gas fees with the upcoming update. We will see a major surge in Ethereum DAPPs
We are still within the early days of Crypto and we are watching and observing as all of theses projects get launched to the world and we have to wait and see if adoption matches the price, Bitcoin, BCH, Ethereum have enough adoption to match the prices we are seeing, does Cardano?
In my opinion, No. Will they? It very well could happen in the future which is why I own a small bag of Cardano, nothing in comparison with Gene Simmons or Bit Boy Crypto but I still own a small amount to take advantage of the market prices.
I wish I had more to say about Cardano, but I don't...

The World & Crypto #15
The World & Crypto with Rutkowski Edition #15
**February 21, 2021**
Has the Bull Run Begun?
A very debatable question, a lot of people would say, Yes, The Bull Run is here! I'd say that while we are almost at $60K Bitcoin and $2,000.00 Ethereum that it may look like we are on a bull run now, but the thing is, I think we are just entering the historic Bull Run Phase but this Phase of this Bull Run will not be as the last Bull Run of 2017 or even that of 2013
I honestly believe we will see more correlations with the 2013 Bull Run to an extent, I look to see a decent correction and than the start of another Bull Run so to speak, now this is where my opinions vary from the masses that keep saying "This is the same Bull Run as 2017"
Ugh, No! No it is not the same as 2017... The famous Bull Run of 2017 came at the hands of the people, we didn't have corporations investing Billions into that Bull Run. We had a lot unclarity with regulations that left the elite out of the Bull Run of 2017 which in my opinion is what ended the 2017 Bull Run.
I still stick firm that this Bull Run this far has been contributed to the Pandemic alone, looking back in March of 2020 as the beginning of the Bull Run which is what I will call it. We witnessed the shut down of economies worldwide which tanked the stock markets a bit, nothing major in the sense of "Black Tuesday" which resulted in thousands of suicides back on October 29, 1929
This so called Stock Market Crash brought about Crypto adoption for a wide variety of people from institutional investors, companies, ordinary people. Along with government acceptance of Bitcoin and legislation allowing Insurance companies to invest in Bitcoin. We seen massive adoption by the elite which continues to grow this year as well.
Saylor's massive group meeting teaching thousands of companies buying strategies for Bitcoin. We always know that once people enter the Bitcoin sphere they are rarely satisfied alone with Bitcoin and they start to invest in other crypto's which offer higher returns than that of Bitcoin.
Now in the long run we tend to see that money flock all the way back to Bitcoin, in turn raising the current market cap of Bitcoin to over $1,000,000,000,000.00 Yes, over $1 Trillion dollars. That is a historic land mark and in my opinion alone signifies that we are beyond the typical Bull Run Cycles that we have seen in the past.
Although I know we will see a point where the Crypto momentum dies down a little bit, we have way too much happening in current times to actually kill the upwards momentum of Crypto. People see Governments printing money all the time, increasing inflation, zero interest rates, the on coming housing crash and more factors that are driving the adoption of crypto as a safe harbor and a way to become a millionaire with only $100.00 worth of the right Crypto.
FOMO will be the next major driving factor, once people see that everyone else is making money they will want to dive in out of FEAR OF MISSING OUT and they will eventually dive out out FEAR OF LOSING EVERYTHING which is the number one mistake that any person whom doesn't understand crypto fully could make. That also happens in the Stonk Market when people buy into something and than see the price dip, they tend to panic because they don't understand the way markets move and they can't handle slight dips, let alone a 30% correction in one day.
Now this is just by opinion as the possibility of entering into another bearish market is still surreal until Crypto proves what I am saying above. I honestly predict that if we are going to go straight into a Bearish cycle as seen previously it'll be some where around the $133K BTC Level in my opinion and if I'm correct it'll bring the BTC market still somewhere North of $40K
Why do I think this? We are seeing massive movements of BTC straight to cold wallet storage in a massive volumes. The amount of Bitcoin mined alone every day plus the amount being sold every day can't maintain the current outflow and will sky rocket the prices, I think once we hit $100K we will see somewhere around a $20K correction.
HOT HOLOCHAIN up over 20% More!
Holochain HOT is on a roll this last week increasing in price by over 100% I have been extremely bullish on HOT for years now, I have read the White Paper and have spent a lot of time researching Holochain, they are not your typical Blockchain. I really recommend that you read my article about HOT and vest at a minimum of $5 into HOT for the long term, I admit, I have a lot more than $5.00 tied into Holochain and I'm not selling anytime over next several years.
Holochain has more potential than Ethereum alone and considering that Holochain isn't advertising in the way that these other Crypto's do and they are still making noise within the crypto community, I guess in a way you can say I root for the underdog, but the fact is, Holochain isn't an underdog... They are just straight undervalued and the potential of Holochain is slowly being realized.
Bitcoin
Bitcoin All Time High $57,810 and currently hovering around $57,500 we all know that Sundays have been dumping days for the last 3 weeks at least, yesterday we seen a pretty massive volume of over 42 million that dumped the price down to $53,463 with immediate bounce back up over $54,000 and going up to set a new all time high!
Bitcoin has been having sizeable corrections of 4k to 1.2k in waves, I call these tremors, ideally with all of the momentum that we have been seeing to the upside we have to realize that at some point people are going to pull profits off the table, diversify their portfolio and than dump back into Bitcoin once again. These are facts that you have to realize with any market of this nature, whether we are talking stonks or Crypto alike.
I look for major corporations to hold longer than the average people like ourselves, but at the same time, it is very important as we near the $62K mark that you have an exit strategy in place to avoid significant losses. I don't feel like at this point in time that we will hit $62K and than fall majorly, although if we have the major correction at $62K we would see the price fall as low as $48K for a blink of the eye.
I know plenty of people that have major buy orders in at those lower levels that would be happy to see the price retreat. I know with the history of anything that continuously goes up, it must come down to some extent eventually. Just be very careful in the coming days, I predict by Tuesday we will be fighting the $60K barrier, that is provided that we see a decent dump today, if not we will be at $60K barrier by tomorrow evening in my opinion but I am not a financial advisor.
One thing that I have learned from playing around in The World of Crypto is that no can predict for 100% what will happen..
BCH Slowing Down?
Nope, just a little sideways action to give Ethereum a chance to catch up with the market before BCH rallies towards $1,000.00 which I believe we will be at by the end of this month or worse case scenario the first week of March, now wait and watch it happen within the second week of March, I won't complain because I know how these markets work, right now BCH is hovering above $700.00 and waiting to pump again.
My Final Thoughts
Wow, what a week! I keep looking at the Market Cap which is currently at $1,075,799,705,672 for Bitcoin alone and combined Crypto Market Cap of $1.7 Trillion dollars and rising as we speak, Bitcoin is extremely bullish right now. While writing this article Bitcoin set a new all time high of $58,336.00 and is battling with the $58K barrier right now.
I know I said $60K by Monday evening but at this rate it'll be sooner than that... Time will ultimately tell, it would be a long sideways week ahead of retesting the $50K levels but something in the air tells me that Bitcoin is on fire and that fire isn't going to go out so easily.
I keep hearing a lot of Buzz online about this whole Teether scandal, claims that Teether has inflated the Bitcoin Market Cap and that it's going to come out in the light and wreck Bitcoin. I just want to say to all of those that believe this to be a factual and not just speculation... You all are blasting this all over the internet and at the same you, yourself are investing into a ton of different crypto's online and encouraging others to invest as well.
Now I want you to put on your thinking cap for just a minute and think with logic instead of speculation. Teether is not strictly used with Bitcoin, People convert money to Teether and than use that to purchase all kinds of different Crypto online. So, if this is more than speculation the entire market would be wrecked by this scandal, not just BTC not just XRP or what ever your beloved crypto is, ALL OF THEM WOULD BE EFFECTED
It is honestly a shame that some one would be believe this to be true and than advise others to continue to invest into Cryptos ignoring facts. I don't believe it, I haven't been able to find any evidence of this taking place, I was able to find where Teether has been compliant with a court submitting all required evidence to prove the contrary to the speculation and for the sake off all of us whom are heavily vested in the Crypto World I hope this is nothing more than Speculation.
We haven't heard any big players covering this speculation which leans toward it being false, but that isn't always the case and I think we should all be cautious of the reality that this could be true to an extent. I just highly doubt it and I haven't adjusted any of my investments to safe guard against this, if it were true.

The World & Crypto #14
The World & Crypto with Rutkowski Edition #14
**February 18, 2021**
Overview: Please be aware I am not a financial advisor, investing is rather risky especially if you don't do your own research! I have been studying Blockchain projects since I first heard of Bitcoin back in 08 even I can not predict markets with 100% accuracy. I do have enough knowledge of the atmosphere to make educated guesses but at the end of the day, the market will go with the flow, whether the flow goes with my predictions is an entirely different story.
I have been following a couple of people on You Tube these last couple weeks and I have been really thinking about also adding my own You Tube channel. I have to get a space arranged with some Microphones and Cameras first, but once I do, I plan on going live on You Tube. My ultimate goal is to created the World's first Crypto channel with nightly crypto news and morning crypto talks as well as all of the crypto shows that the community has grown to love over the years all combined into on channel.
I am still working on this project and I don't expect it to be accomplished until around November at the earliest and next February at the latest. Let me know if that would be something that you would be interested in watching? or maybe if you would like to participate?
BCH
BCH is still holding above $700.00 and seems to be stalling about on it's Ethereum movement right now. I am reevaluating my months prediction for BCH and I am eyeballing a range between $920 and $1,045 I am currently up to almost .18 BCH since I decided to hop on the 1 BCH Challenge band wagon, admittedly I have been diversifying my entire portfolio into a boat load of other cryptos with extremely high potential or else I'd be really close to a full BCH.
I will be apart of the 1 BCH club in the near future as I hope that most of you already are or you're at least working your way to that goal. BCH will continue along the Bitcoin path.
Hot Holochain
#HOT #Holochain currently at .0014801 cents per token, you can get 100K #HOT for $148 and some change right now. Holochain has been around for years now, I have written extensive reviews on the benefits of Holochain and how and will explode over the next 3 years. I predicted that this would be the year it fights towards a $1.00 so far this year Holochain has seen gains of over 140% and I would have to say as of now, if things continue this way HOT will be pretty close to my predicted target by the end of December.
I had been hoping for more spotlight in the Holochain Community to speed the process along, but HOT Holochain isn't heavily talked about anywhere other than on Holochain forums and yet they are up above .001 cents and moving. Any project in the crypto world can moved by mass advertising and speculation but it takes a real crypto of value to move up without mass speculation and advertising.
That aspect alone says so much about Holochain and that alone is why I continue to invest into Holochain with the goal to own over 1 million tokens before HOT reaches 1 cent at this time I am about a 1/10 of the way to that goal!
Cardano ADA Headed over $1.00 than to $5.00 & Beyond!
ADA currently at .91 cents and fighting it's way towards $1.00 the next couple hours on the chart will determine whether or not another retest of the .80 cent level is going to happen before we shoot up towards the $1.00 range. I see a heavy correlation with the price movement of Bitcoin itself.
The other day a rapidly growing Youtuber announced on his feed after sending 10 BTC to his Binance account that he would be trading that #BTC to #ADA a value of over $510,000.00 dollars yesterday into ADA. Bit Boy Crypto has over 529,000 subscribers on You Tube. Circumstances like these have me evaluating whether or not people are buying the tokens for the benefits the token has to offer. Are his viewers doing research or just blindly going out and stuffing bags full of ADA or do they just laugh at him?
I know I was buying ADA before Bit Boy even mentioned them, ADA has been on my list for a while now and regardless of whether his viewer FOMO in or not, I am glad they are getting a ton of spot light right now, they don't need it for long term success but it really does help to speed things up a lot.
Ethereum
Ethereum price is rallying new all time highs today. The price is currently hovering above $1,930.00 and it's looking like we could see $2,000 Ethereum by the end of the day Sunday. I tend to stay away from #ETH since I am not a fan of anything that charges so much money that little people like myself have a really hard time being a part of and #Ethereum gas prices drive away most little investors such as myself.
I have found ways to purchase my beloved ERC-20 Tokens without succumbing to the expensive gas prices occurred when using swap exchanges such as my all time favorite Uni Swap. I find it ironic that one of the reasons people love the blockchain is that you can store money with no fees and watch that money grow over time as the value of your coins grows.
Here lately people are paying $200.00 gas prices which is crazy! The technology that slams #Bitcoin ? but it can't even process transaction for under $200? That is the reason why I put more faith into projects such as Holochain, Cardano and others alike.
Rush Limbaugh Passes Away!
Rush Limbaugh pictured above receiving a medal from President Trump, The Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest honor a civilian can receive from a sitting President of the United States. Limbaugh passed away Wednesday after having battled Lung Cancer. Limbaugh was an inspiration and guided millions of Americans along their political journeys and was known for speaking his minding and holding back nothing.
Limbaugh was loved by most and respected by all. The legacy of Rush Limbaugh will live on in the United States for generations to come, may he rest in peace.
Snow Storm Hits Texas USA Hard! Millions with out Power!
Texas, a state in the United States known for it's rather warm weather and very mild winters is currently dealing with a "Historic Snow Storm" in the age of global warming I have to ask myself, is global warming really that bad? Or is this just the starting of a polar shift?
Meanwhile over 2.6 Million Americans in Texas have dealt with power outages after Windmills froze and stopped producing power forcing power plants and generators to increase production and skyrocketing Energy rates. The last reported number of people with out electric was around 1.6 million people with 17 confirmed deaths due to the sad circumstances.
Mother nature is one of the most predictable, but very unpredictable forces in this world. We can never really now what the weather may do until it happens and unfortunately this can leave millions of people vulnerable. I live in a location where winters can be rather bad. I know from experience that snow and ice can lead to power outages and I keep alternative heat sources.
Bitcoin is on a roll!
Bitcoin: #BTC is currently battling the $52K grounds hovering right now at around $51.9 to $52.1K attempting to brake above $53K to set another all time high, will it happen? so far we have been above $50K holding strong support above $51K but battling really strong resistance at the $52K level. We are in a very crucial area at the moment in my opinion the next 8 hours will determine if we see the strong resistance that will give us a decent price correction or as I like to look at at, a better buying opportunity.
Bitcoin seems to have enough support right now to prove my possible correction here wrong, I won't complain if it does, however Bitcoin is eventually going to have to go retest a lower level if we don't get a leg up within the next 8 hours. I look to have overwhelming support at lower levels that will indeed send the price right back up if it even goes lower.
To be perfectly honest, I thought we was seeing the price correction earlier today until the candle stick patter started to show stronger and stronger support fighting to stay above $52K I will be watching the charts very closely to see what happens over the next 8 hours.
As always, Thanks for reading, God Bless You and Stay Healthy!

Nancy Pelosi taking the spotlight from President Biden
Dictator Pelosi seems to be taking the credit away from President Biden for the Stimulus Checks, making it appear as if though she is more powerful than the setting President Biden? Conflict amongst themselves? I thought it was President Biden whom started the Stimulus Checks not Dictator Pelosi?
However Dictator Pelosi has announced that she expects to have the checks out in advance of the expiration of the $400 weekly unemployment bonus on March 12 or 14 2021 Ideally these checks should start going out this week, but we all know Dictator Pelosi is busy battling President Trump. I really think she is leading up to a presidential run in 2024 that is purely speculation as of now.
President Trump' Acquitted! Democrats aren't done yet?
President **Trump** for the **SECOND** **TIME** in **HISTORY** was **ACQUITTED** by the **SENATE**! I want that statement to sink in for a moment... Democrats and Dictator Pelosi are now bashing Republicans for standing up for our constitution when they acquitted President Trump whom is now a private citizen.
Now, if you listen to Democrats, I feel sorry for you. You are probably confused right now and think that the senate had the authority to impeach President Trump. The point of Impeachment as defined by the United States Constitution specifies that Impeachment is to remove someone from office.
Hence, the first failed impeachment was legitimate in the sense, President Trump held the office as President of the United States of America and if they had Impeached him successfully the first time, he would have been removed from office, which is the point of an impeachment. Nancy Pelosi honestly over stepped her boundaries by attempting a second failed Impeachment.
The audacity of Pelosi to claim that she is upholding her oath to defend the constitution when her and her party alone has single handedly attacked the constitution from almost every stance, except when they feel it could benefit their extremist agenda to silence the majority. CNN is already trying to convince people that Trump has been broken down by this 2nd failed impeachment trial and that he has lost the majority of his supporters.
While Democrats would be happy with that outcome, it isn't the case, in fact, a lot of Democrats are now part of the MAGA Party and as Democrats continue the assault on our freedoms and liberties, making themselves look even pettier than before, President Trumps Movement will continue to grow in numbers. I don't think that they understand how negative this behavior is weighing in by the majority.
Politics in the United States are making us look even dumber than before.... God Bless America & the rest of the world.
**#BTC #Bitcoin New All Time High $49,925.00 $50K Today??**
BTC currently hovering around $49K and fighting strong resistance at the 49.2K and building a strong support level at $48.6K I have to say honestly, within the next 4 hours I think we will see a retest of the lower $48K level. Now catch 22 in my opinion will be how the retest goes, we could see strong support that launches #BTC from 48.2K up past 49.9K
worse case scenario, we are going down to $46K I don't think we will ever see Bitcoin below $45K at this point in time. Now I strongly believe unless $F2Pool dumps majorly within the next 7 days we will be around the $60K level. Why do I think this?
While I am not an expert chart reader, nor am I a financial advisor, I have been following crypto markets for years now, I have watched almost every single phase of Bitcoin from Birth till now, admittedly I didn't hold on to my keys like I should have. I have over 200 Bitcoin's just sitting somewhere on the Blockchain... Sadly, I am not the only one that can say this, it could have been worse.
I hear a lot of comparison between 2017 and now, while we can learn a lot from historical data and apply that knowledge to future trend and come close with accurate predictions, this isn't always reliable when you have a market that is evolving at pace no one thought possible 2 years ago and sadly I give the pandemic full responsibility for this. The pandemic has lead us towards another 2008 incident that sparked Satoshi to create Bitcoin.
The looming fear of a major crash worse than witnessed in march 2020, which was pretty profitable for myself since I bought the bottom and sold out at about 125% gains and moved all those funds back to crypto. The thing is, had I put that cash into Bitcoin then, I would now have over $12,000.00 and that was only $1,200.00 I invested back then.
Since March we have noticed an increasing number of institutions from Fidelity, Square which is owned by Jeff Bezos owner of Amazon, Paypal which was started by Elon Musk, Cash App, Tesla owned by Elon Musk (not founded by Elon Musk) and so many more. Right now you may not realize this, but these people buying Billions of USD in Bitcoin are transferring from exchanges to cold storage wallets which is lowering the circulating supply of Bitcoin itself.
Yes, I know we have people mining Bitcoin every day and producing around 800 fresh Bitcoin per day, that is a rough estimate, I can't recall the exact figure but the point being that institutions are buying up more than the daily supply created, in turn this is lowering the circulating supply for trading since it is being transferred to cold storage wallets.
Now lets take into account the ordinary people like us that are also buying and hodling BTC which is driving down the circulating supply, maybe not as much as the billionaires but we are putting a dent in it. 2017 didn't have any support from the governments, meaning that we didn't see companies like Tesla pouring into the markets, now we do. They aren't scared of taking major regulations losses which is why they are here to stay.
As the popularity by major influencers, News Media and other sources such as word of mouth continues to grow we will see the everyday man and woman start pouring in to Bitcoin sending the prices even higher than we have seen in the past. The thing is, the last halving happened in 2020, prior to that 2016 on the 2016 halving it wasn't until December of 2017 that Bitcoin hit it's peak.
We are going to see some impressive numbers before we hit march, I still think we are going to have some sideways action before summer time when Bitcoin really blows up. The sideways action period will determine ETH's status in the crypto bull run, I personally look for BCH to surpass ETH by all means.
#BCH Bitcoin Cash
BCH currently fight the $700 range working it's way up past $800 hopefully by early this week. I have speculated for a long time that we would see Bitcoin Cash follow in the foot steps of Bitcoin itself. I don't think we would see the price of BCH ever in the 100's of thousands but in this universe anything is possible in the world of crypto. I do feel like BCH will make it to $30K by the end of next year, I truly expect to see BCH at $5K and I'm low balling that so you don't think I sound crazy when I say the best case scenario of at least $12K
My Final Thoughts
While I may have been overly critical of Dictator Pelosi and her fellow Democrats, I just get fed up with propaganda and the fact that millions of Americans can hear some thing on CNN and automatically spread it as truth instead of actually looking into the facts of the matter. Yeah, when you hear something that supports your opinion or beliefs it is easy to get carried away with excitement. I tend to excited a lot, then I research it and find out it was a play on words.
I have always been against career politics as well as organized religion. I believe everyone has the God Given Right to be free and should be able to roam freely on the face of earth without restrictions, with respect to others and their property. I also believe that people should research and form their own opinions instead of following opinions blindly.
I really think we can change this part of society with the blockchain in the future by taking away power from the Governments and handing back more power to citizens which is the way it should be, we need government for certain purposes. We don't need world dictators, we need police, army and first responders we don't need people like President Biden whom has been in politics for 48 years and has done nothing so far but hurt Americans and yet he is our President.
Notice how I support President Trump but I still respect the fact that President Biden is now my President, I didn't say I was proud of that, but I accept it for what it is.

Bitcoin did great, but what about #HOT #HOLOCHAIN ? 64% Gains!
We always hear people talk about mainstream crypto's but we rarely hear about those random gems that are hiding and waiting for mass discovery with major profit potential. I have been watching #HOLOCHAIN #HOT for years now, I have been investing into #HOT for the same amount of time. I personally can not complain about the gains I have seen which is probably why I hold a decent amount. I have stated in multiple articles that #HOT is my Million Dollar token and I know one day it'll get me their.
I recommend if you are not already familiar with #HOT you check out this article to get a better understanding of #HOT I know people have a mass hype for ETH but tokens like #HOT in my opinion are more valuable than any, with the community that #HOLOCHAIN has, you can't go wrong. at the current price of $0.0012 and some change per token you can almost not afford to get on board. #HOTchallenge goal of 1,000,000.00 HOT Tokens to HODL and 100,000.00 HOT Tokens to sell. https://read.cash/@Rutkowski/holochain-what-about-it-d7034e86
Bitcoin, doing BIG THINGS!
**Bitcoin:** is currently fighting a resistance level at $46.5K after setting a new All Time High of $48,250.00 amidst an announcement from Tesla stating they are investing $1.5 BN into Bitcoin. The price movement may be associated with that transaction, however, I don't see that as being a decent buying strategy for Bitcoin, who really knows who Elon Musk will go about the investment other than Mr. Saylor whom is more than likely helping Elon make the move.
Bitcoin is currently in uncharted territories at the moment and with out proof that Elon Musk has a wallet with 1.5 Billion USD of Bitcoin I personally really can't believe that he has invested himself personally yet. I think we will see price increasing to $50K this week and ideally over the next 48 hours, at the point I think we will be met with major resistance that will shot the price back by 6K to 8K and on the worse side of it $12K.
I personally believe Bitcoin is beyond the purchasing under $40K stage and we will see major things happening this month alone, we are only within the second week of February and look at the markets! This is either a great thing or a major set up. I have honestly whole heartedly believed in Crypto since I learned of it's existence. I know that with the massive adoption by main stream media figures as well as every day people we will see even more jump into the market seeing nothing but $$$ dollar signs.
#StimulusChecks
While it is already February 9, 2021 and President Biden promised Americans #StimulusChecks back in January while campaigning to get Democrat Senators elected then President Elect Biden promised that if voters, voted Democrat he would have a $2,000.00 stimulus amendment passed as soon as he took office on January 20, 2021 at 12:00 p.m.
Although I am not surprised he failed to act immediately to getting #StimulusChecks passed, President Biden has become the target of scrutiny from millions of Americans with #BidenLied trending on Twitter, when President Biden said, "$600.00 just isn't enough," "Americans need $2,000.00" Americans thought President Biden was implying a full $2,000.00 stimulus check.
Now, according to sources in which I personally haven't substantiated yet, #StimulusChecks will be going out the door soon. Americans making under $100,000.00 per year will get $1,400.00 I know people all over the World need help financially depending upon how bad the Pandemic has been in your area. I know in most situations it seems that the government agencies have made the impacts of covid-19 worse than it has had to be.
My Final Thoughts
I am excited to get this next Stimulus check, $1,000.00 is going to be put into the market, I am going to start a new article called What I would do with $250.00 and I am going to give short post daily updates about the account. The ideal of the account will be to maximize the $250.00 the most over the long run. The other $750.00 will be diversified through out a lot of my upcoming favorite new crypto's.
I look for all Crypto's to be inflated with this new stimulus check, pretty much if you invest right now into anything including #Bitcoin that has value, I know #DOGE is on a run still and Elon Musk, Gene Simmons and Snoop Dogg are all supporting #DOGE but we have so many other Crypto Currencies that actually serve a purpose more than price speculations.
Bitcoin with the $1.5 Billion USD investment by Tesla will drive millions of people of people to dump money into Bitcoin, I think personally that investments impact has honestly yet to be seen, I think we will start seeing the investment impact going forward over the next couple of weeks. The implications this has on crypto alone is over whelming, Tesla planning to accept Bitcoin as payment for Tesla's!
We have a lot of great upcoming projects, #VET #ADA #ELGD and more that I really need to set down and just write about. I have been so wrapped up lately just studying and following Bitcoin, Bitcoin was headed towards a rally before Tesla made their announcement about buying Bitcoin, that is why I think we have yet to see what that will do to the price of Bitcoin or they may have secretly invested 1.5 Billion into Bitcoin and than announced the plan to grow the investment rapidly.
Who knows, anyways, Thanks for reading, God Bless You and stay Healthy!
Long Bitcoin? The World of Bitcoin!
February 5, 2021 Update #2
overview
Welcome back for update #2 I have recently started trading crypto in order to make more more crypto, the end goal short term is 1 BTC, ETH, and BCH I started with an investment of $29 originally. The last article I wrote I was down almost $8.00 and I as of the time of writing this I have made over $100 dollars and counting. I am currently in the midst of trade that is sure to bump that number up for me.
I started trading on January 23, 2021 I have been in the World of Crypto for years now and have always watched traders from the side lines, thinking, I'd like to do that and for some reason, I just never actually done it until now. I am not a financial advisor nor do I give financial advice.
Why I am Trading?
I have seen a lot of so called professional crypto traders whom claim to teach everyone how to make money trading crypto, umm, really? I think if anyone could afford to jump start their Crypto Trading career with a few BTC they'd get it right eventually, right? So, this got me to wondering... Could I take out $30 of my savings in Crypto and leverage that $30 x 20 and increase my holdings without losing my money?
The answer so far is yes! I have made over $140 with over 230 micro trades. I have made some mistakes along the way, I'd say the best advice I have had so far was from the original post I made, a recommendation to up my amount of leverage, I am almost to the recommended amount of leverage now and I see the amount of returns significantly increasing with each trade.
The big goal here is to get a BTC for $30.00 I started with $30.00 and I am working my way up to 1 BTC just to prove that anyone can do it. I will be providing screen shots of the account, if you want to verify my claims and add up the numbers for yourself.
My Mistake, Won't Happen Again!
First off, I don't like making mistakes, especially not financial mistakes. The other day with the XRP Pump and Dump, I had been listening to all of the chatter online, I knew that a bunch of people had been loading up on XRP for days to just dump it all on every one as soon as the pump time hit, every thing was going as I had thought..
I had made almost $40 just longing XRP the whole way up to $0.75 cents and than it happened...boom... the price drops, no big deal, right? Not for me, I had the order set to add margin... That was the mistake that costed me $50.00 I like the liquidation spread on Bitcoin more than on other currencies. with XRP .02 liquidation spread isn't far off from the entry price. I understand the price difference and everything, I am just not okay with the risk.
I am still honestly new in the field of Crypto Trading, I am more than familiar with the stock markets, I made a decent amount of money in 2020 after the stock market tanked, I invested in companies that were majorly undervalued after the dip and I seen impressive returns, however nothing in comparison with crypto alone. I invested $ 400.00 and it just keeps on growing. I invested $25 back in October 2020 and it grew to over $125.00 by January 2021
Next Friday Target February 12, 2021
I want to be leveraging 0.25 BTC per trade by next Friday, I am not really sure what the return rate on trades of that value would be, but I do believe that will get me to my goal of 1 BTC, BCH, and ETH a whole lot faster. Either way it goes, I am going to take the longer road, learn ropes, take advice and hopefully learn from major mistakes with small amounts of money.
My Final Thoughts
I am just enjoying myself as I embark upon yet another journey in life, I love adventure and the thrill of being in a trade. I feel like I am luck enough to have studied the stock markets with a rather successful approach. I have always been one to believe speculation, supply and demand mean more than liquid assets. That logic alone has made my stock market picks winners. You can learn a lot from studying charts.
I feel as if though my passion for crypto has given me a major advantage here. I have been following BTC for years and studying evolving blockchain technologies for years. I am familiar with the way Crypto reacts, I have a great understanding of economics and I understand psychological effects of social media on crypto alone. Speculation, supply and demand...the three main factors in trading Crypto.
After I accomplish my goal I will be having a giveaway! So make sure to follow along so don't you miss out! Thanks for reading, God Bless You, Stay Healthy!
Pictures of the trades I have done.

**February 3, 2021**
**Announcement:** I am looking for some who can draw really good, on the computer. I need a logo, I want an image the title "The World & Crypto with Rutkowski" in a unique creative way. I will use this image across all of my social platforms and I will be giving away $5 in BCH along with $5 of HOT
I know $10 of crypto isn't a whole lot of money, but I don't honestly make a whole lot of money blogging, I don't make anything across my social media platforms, you will get credit which could land yourself more freelancing work. You can either post the images tagging me on read.cash or you can submit the images to me on twitter Crypto_Crash
Stimulus Talks for USA
The twitter trend #BidenLied is trending on twitter right now in an effort to pressure President Biden into honoring his original promises of giving away $2,000.00 stimulus check to Americans once he took office on January 20, 2021 at 11:45 a.m. President Biden had stated on multiple occasions that he would be presenting the legislation once he took office because $600.00 is just not enough. https://twitter.com/hashtag/BidenLied?src=hashtag_click
While President Biden was and still is correct, $600.00 is just not enough, especially when already struggling families now have the burden of increased utilities, and also have to face even higher gas prices. That isn't all, with minimum wage set to go up to $15 USD per hour, we will see a likewise increase in the cost of everything in the United States as companies will be forced to pass the cost of labor on just like it always has.
Provided talks hold up, Americans may see a Stimulus Package in the range of $600 to 1,400.00 I wouldn't hold out hope for the $2,000.00 but with the coming stock market crash ultimately a whole lot of printing will be taking place on a larger scale than we seen with the Wall Street bail outs before. This is all terrible news for the USD, but as for Bitcoin and the crypto world? We are welcoming the crash.
**BTC:** Currently around $36,200 I have been watching Bitcoin closely the last 3 hours and we appear to be stuck in a upward triangle that'll take us to $36,800 Once we hit around that level we should see our next leg up to the $37K to $38K now that is dependent upon Mining companies such as F2Pool not dumping the price back down which has been happening for the last couple of weeks.
The demand for Bitcoin despite the price charts at the current moment is overwhelming and growing rapidly despite what speculators may think. Elon Musk last Thursday posted the #Bitcoin on twitter, the price of Bitcoin raised at the same time miners dumped 10,000 BTC into the market. That is why we have be stomped out at $42K and it appears that miners are slowing down on dumping to allow Bitcoin to grow even more.
**BCH:** is currently above $434.00 and continuing to rise on a upward trend, hopefully we brake the $500 barrier within the next couple of days and work on the $600 barrier for a week before we see a rally like ETH
ETH has passed it's all time high yet again, $1,574.00 according to coinbase and is currently trading at $1,547 I typically don't make predictions on ETH as I don't study the charts as closely as I do BTC and BCH but just a quick glance at the chart gave me a quick indication that we could see $2,500 ETH over the next 72 hours. Take that with a grain of salt, but it very well could happen.
My Final Thoughts
I love Crypto, I really do, I have been passionate about crypto for many years now, and I am honestly just thankful that I could be here at the beginning of crypto revolutionizing the way our World's economies actually work, replacing the traditional fiat systems and making millionaires and even billionaires out of small people in the world that will ultimately drive innovation beyond belief of corporate ideology.
We have a lot of people whom deserve credit for inspiring innovation across the spectrum, ultimately, Satoshi, whom ever he is, deserves the most credit for publishing the white paper on Bitcoin. Satoshi alone brought the idea that many had thought of already to light and without Satoshi, I would probably still be living a rather boring life in the world of internet marketing and freelancing online.
I have had a dream that started over 20 years ago now, and that dream is that no matter how smart or uneducated a person may be, if you give him/her a computer and teach them to read/write and work a web browser, they too can become financially independent. The cost of starting companies, building prototypes heavily limits the abilities of people like myself from ever being able to materialize any billion dollar thoughts.
The creation and adoption of the World Wide Web has enabled anyone to become rich, make a decent living or even some side income online for just a little bit of work. The best part is, no matter what Niche you are into, you can almost certainly make a profit with it online. This ability alone has allowed me to always have a means of making money. Admittedly in my younger years, I was more so content with running wild and getting into trouble with friends instead of focusing on the future and doing anything to benefit humanity.
I enjoy crypto, I don't do what I do to get rich, although that is inevitable in this field for people like us, I know it will happen eventually, when it does, I just hope that I will be able to make an impact on the world while motivating others to walk a similar path.
Thanks for reading, God Bless You, Stay Healthy!
I hope to see some designs, I want to pick on to use before Friday!

China Video Simulation Sparks Viral Confusion
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgT3wkrlFwo
The video above went viral on social media applications such as Tik Tok where users thought it would be funny to convince viewers that China and Russia had blown up a United States Aircraft Carrier, while we know if this were the case, it would be the start of the actual World War III during a time of pandemic War is often associated either before the pandemic or shortly after.
The World tension between the United States and other countries has been building since the creation of the United States and with Presidential Administrations that focused solely on foreign relations that seem to be more damaging than anything have added to those tensions. China is a force that will have to reckoned with sooner than latter, especially if they keep the crusade of antagonizing the U.S.A and other countries such as Taiwan.
Speculation of the Biden Administrations close involvement with China, considering the Biden Family owns 10% of China's Central Bank implies that President Biden should be able to hold off his buddies another 4 years or longer depending on the 2024 election outcome which judging by the 2020 election we will have a major show-down in 2024
In retrospect videos like this simulation can be seemingly harmless, but when you look at China's Military and there Navy overtaking any Island they please while continuing to spread even further out amongst the World, it starts to appear more like strategic positioning more so than expansion. China is being super aggressive and it has been going unchecked for some time now.
The last year alone of President Trump's Presidency, Trump had to answer several calls to China, my favorite response was when Trump sent the United States Navy in neutral waters that China tried to claim and enforce restrictions. While the actions by Trump may seem excessive by those whom stand against Trump, it was actually less than what is called for. President Biden has a lot of hard work ahead of him when it comes to foreign relations for the United States.
Stimulus Checks for USA
President Biden has still neglected his promise to voters of the $1,400.00 stimulus check and now says he is open to the idea of $1,000.00 stimulus checks to even less Americans. President Biden while getting Democrat Senators elected in Georgia promised he would get a $2,000.00 stimulus bill passes if 2 Democrat senators were to be elected, so far this promise has went from $2,000.00 to just $1,400.00 and now down to $1,000.00 all without President Biden presenting one bill for this to happen... When will Americans get more money?
I don't know, but it would appear as if though Biden has fallen asleep behind the wheel, especially after causing over 56,000 jobs, spending trillions for the Paris Climate Agreement and World Health Organization and to add more insult to the injuries, thanks to the Paris Climate Agreement already struggling Americans seen a 100% increase on Electric bills and the cost of gasoline increase by over .60 cents per gallon.
America's economy isn't looking very good right now, but on the plus side, if and when President Biden passes the next round of stimulus checks we will see even more money flood into the Crypto World! Americans love safe guarding themselves against inflation, especially considering the amount of stimulus money and aid being printed and we should all be educated enough by now to know that when we raise the Federal Minimum Wages in the United States the USD gets inflated further.
Wall Street Took an "L" Thanks to the People
Game Stop GME Stock Exchange Symbol, went $3 in 2020 to almost $500 costing over $3,000,000,000.00 in damages to major investors whom have been making billions by shorting the stock after a reddit sub group decided to pump the stock beyond the "short" limit, which in turn caused several financial institutions such as Robinhood to halt Margin trading after they went broke.
This just another example of how fed up people are with the corporate double standard and the fact that billionaires can suppress any company on the stock exchange solely by shorting the stock enough. This is something that probably shouldn't be allowed in hindsight, however, would Wall Street exist without it?
The effects from this Pump has netted Millions in returns for small people like us in the World, which I must say, I am happy they got one over on Wall Street, I can't count all of the elderly ladies and gentleman in the World that have had to work there whole lives just to reach retirement and find out they have been screwed by Wall Street and will either have to be dependent on family and friends or work another 10 years.
GME is currently at $325.00 as of now. A lot of members of the Reddit group cashed out and have started pumping Crypto's such as DOGE and others...

R/wallstreetbets, also known as WallStreetBets or WSB, is a subreddit where participants discuss stock and option trading. It has become notable for its profane nature, aggressive trading strategies, and role in the 2021 GameStop short squeeze.
The subreddit, describing itself through the tagline "Like 4chan found a Bloomberg terminal",[2] is known for its aggressive trading strategies, which primarily revolve around highly speculative, leveraged options trading. Members of the subreddit are often young retail traders and investors who ignore fundamental investment practices and risk management techniques, so their activity is considered gambling. The growing popularity of no-commission brokers and mobile online trading has potentially contributed to the growth of such trading trends. Members of the communities often see high-risk day trading as an opportunity to quickly improve their financial conditions and obtain additional income. Some of the members tend to use borrowed capital, like student loans, to bet on certain "meme stocks" that show popularity within the community.[1][3][4][5][6]
The subreddit is also known for its profane and juvenile nature, with members often referring to themselves as "autists" and "degenerates."[5][7]
History: The GameStop Short Squeeze https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/article/gamestop-share-price-surges-as-crypto-exchange-lists-stock-and-elon-musk-weighs-in
On January 22, 2021, users of r/WallStreetBets initiated a short squeeze on GameStop, pushing their stock prices up significantly. This occurred shortly after a comment from Citron Research predicting the value of the stock would decrease.[8] The stock price increased more than 600% by January 26, and its high volatility caused trading to be halted multiple times.[9][10]
On January 24, a moderator of r/WallStreetBets wrote a post stating: "There is NO organized effort by those [of] us who moderate this community to promote, advise or recommend any stock. It is against our policy to do so and we feel it is crucial to allow members to be able to share their ideas amongst each other with autonomy."[11]
After the GameStop stock closed up 92.7% on Tuesday, January 26, business magnate Elon Musk tweeted out a link to the r/WallStreetBets subreddit.[12]
On January 27, r/WallStreetBets users triggered a short squeeze on AMC, a company in a similar position to GameStop.[13]
On January 27, the official WallStreetBets Discord server was banned for "hateful and discriminatory content". Discord denied that the ban was related to the ongoing GameStop short squeeze.[14] In an official statement posted to the r/WallStreetBets subreddit, moderators claimed that their efforts to automatically delete content that violated rules had been overwhelmed by the sheer influx of users and the use of obscure Unicode characters, and criticized Discord for not providing the tools needed to take action to curtail hate speech on the server.[15] This was shortly followed by the subreddit being switched to private by the moderators at around 7:00 p.m. EST, before being made public again around an hour later.[16] Within one week of the GameStop short squeeze, the subreddit had gained over 2.4 million new subscribers, whereas it took 9 years to reach 2.2 million.[17] As of January 28, the WallStreetBets Discord server is online.
Effect on the Robinhood Trading Platform
Many members of the subreddit use the popular mobile app Robinhood to trade stocks and options. Some members have been responsible for significant feature removals and bug fixes after identifying and publishing methods of exploit.[18]
Robinhood Restricts Trading
On January 28, 2021, in response to r/wallstreetbets's involvement in the GameStop short squeeze, Robinhood, TD Ameritrade, E-Trade and Webull restricted the trade of heavily shorted stocks such as GameStop, AMC, BlackBerry Limited, Nokia, and Koss Corporation on their platforms.[23]

*Copied from wikipedia.org*
XRP is at .50 right now, inspired by Wall Street Bets we are seeing a group composed of over 150,000 people whom are doing a Pump & Hold on XRP officially starting February 1, 2021 with the combined goal of driving the XRP price over $1.00 considering that Ripple is no longer allowed to use any XRP that the company holds or the employees whom are named specifically in the suit, we don't have to worry about a major dump from Ripple themselves.
I know, if you have been following me for some time you already know that XRP is my #2 crypto suggestion although I don't give financial advise, I am not a financial advisor and I probably wouldn't want to be. Anyways, I know this seems like a great time to jump into XRP and I want to go ahead and issue a warning that I have been spending days on Twitter and other sites trying to convey to the masses.
Although a pump and hold sounds extremely awesome, right? It could be financially devastating for those involved from the .25 range and up. Yes, we have a lot of people pumping and holding XRP, but at the same time we also have a major group of people whom see the opportunity to buy in extremely low and sell off Monday while other groups are coming in at an already inflated price.
Now lets think about supply and demand, for the price to sky rocket the demand has to greatly out weigh the supply, if you have 45 billion tokens and 10 people want them, what are they worth again? Now if you have 45 billion tokens with 44 billion being held by HODLERS like myself and millions of people wanting to buy and hold even more, what is that token worth? More than one dollar in my opinion. Can you see how this could go either way for investors like myself?
The thing is, XRP is an extremely valuable asset and most people don't understand the full potential of XRP because they listen to people instead of doing research. XRP basically controls the Saudi Arabia foreign exchange, thanks to president biden signing the executive order in the United States, Americans will now be dependent further on foreign oil.
It shouldn't come as any surprise to you that Americans buy the bulk of foreign oil from Saudi Arabia. The speculative implication alone of billions of dollars of XRP moving from the United States to Saudi every day alone will effect the price of XRP majorly in my opinion, but hey, what do I know?
Bitcoin is currently at 33,649.00 and is moving up slightly with an expected increase over night and continuing majorly tomorrow with the pump groups set to start working all other assets. I wouldn't be surprised to see a lot of long time XRP holders fold out of XRP and drop it into BTC and for some reason DOGE, the funny thing is, DOGE has just as much if not more potential to hit BTC prices at some point in the future.
Elon Musk was blamed for the $6,000.00 rally we seen on Friday after he updated his Twitter profile to #Bitcoin on Twitter. I can see how a man with as many followers as him could start a hype, and while I don't personally doubt that some people may have seen that and bough into Bitcoin, I just don't think that is abnormal from the Bitcoin price movements. My speculation here is as Bitcoin becomes more and more stable, we will see less and less price slippage as such.
When we almost hit $42K we had over a $12,000.00 correction, this correction was just $6,000.00 I have noticed the price corrections trend seems to be lowering greatly. We ideally want to see the next big correction to be under $4K ideally $3K or under. That would follow with the trend I have noticed for a bit.
The institutional demand is still here, we still have a lot of hype about Bitcoin, we still keep bringing in new money! That is a plus, even the bad publicity was a plus side, like those famous people say, "Publicity is Publicity, Good or Bad." I said in a article that I think we will continue with the upward momentum of Bitcoin in the beginning of February, I am really anxious and admittedly nervous to see the outcome of the first week of February 2021.
DOGE is currently at .037 and headed towards .04 cents and higher this week alone in my opinion. Honestly, I think this probably the first time I have ever wrote anything other than a quick tweet about DOGE itself. I have known of DOGE for a long time now, but I haven't ever been vested in DOGE like Bitcoin, admittedly if I had as much BTC as I do DOGE I would be rather wealthy at this point in time in my life.
I bought 5,000 DOGE years ago and still have about 1,300 DOGE left after I spent the rest on Pay Per Click advertising. I don't even know if that is still a thing within the DOGE community, but it used to be. I paid maybe $3.00 for all of them and received over 3,700 visitors from that pay per click campaign. I honestly wasn't disappointed with the quality of the traffic back than either.
I started to cash them out at $68.00 the other day, but when you look at the long awaited road Bitcoin has been on, why do that? I have my DOGE sitting in a safe cold storage wallet where they will be when they either become completely useless or I start cashing out, either way I won't be losing anything like those who are buying in now if it does crash.
I have been in the World of Crypto long enough now to know that it really depends on the faith of the community involved. Reddit has been a major contributor to the success of DOGE coin lately, the media covering DOGE coin has been extremely good for DOGE and other coins alike.
BCH is currently above $403.00 dollars, it also had a price rally last week when Bitcoin did which makes me believe that it really had nothing to do with Elon Musk, although I am a huge fan of Mr. Musk. I have been following his career since Paypal. BCH still appears to be headed on the right track to passing up ETH on gains and in price.
I expect to see the price break up a bit in the first week of February. BCH in my opinion should have been pushed to banks and merchants in the same manner that XRP has been. I can't rule out the possibility of BCH actually taking over Merchant transactions in the future. Bitcoin already has tremendous credibility and because BCH is a fork of BTC using the BTC ledger with cheap transaction fees, it leaves BCH a runner up for payment processing as well.
I fault the community involved in developing BCH for the lack of innovation that BCH should have been through already. BTC wasn't meant to change from it's original state, and any changes to the hard code of BTC beyond routine updates would most likely destroy the credibility of BTC itself and would be even more so damaging to BCH. That is why I expect to see BCH follow the same path ways as BTC itself, however the use case will most likely never be considered a safe harbor like BTC
My Final Thoughts
This past week alone has been a roller coaster of events from China, biden, GME, DOGE and awaiting XRP for the start of February and a long list of other assets that are being targeted as well. We are in the early stages of market manipulations, and I encourage every one to be even more cautious and not to feel bad about taking profits off the table as we go.
You can't fault anyone for selling high and buying in low, that is the corporate way and if we want to make a good life for our families we will have to follow suit as well. Wall Street is woke to the fact that they no longer have unrestricted control over the stock markets and they far behind of having control over Crypto Markets which tip the odds in our favor, considering they have to buy from us now.
As always, if you can't afford to lose it, than don't invest it! That is a rule that could save you lots of money, also inadvertently could cause you not to make even more money. A lot of assets at the prices today is like buying BTC 10 years ago before it is what it is now. I believe we will see almost every crypto of value increase by 10 fold over the next year.
I will be sharing my updated portfolio later this week, I also have plans to cover about 50 new Tokens that I am vested in over the long term.
Thanks for reading, God Bless You, and Stay Healthy!

The World & Crypto with Rutkowski Edition #9
President Biden "Rebuild America" Sounds like President Trump's Make America Great!
President Biden is starting his campaign to ensure the Impeachment of President Donald Trump, Biden is using the Impeachment as a means to limit his competition in 2024 versus the means of punishing President Trump for any wrong doing. The accusation that President Trump incited the incident that took place at the Capitol is ridiculous in nature.
President Trump gave a speech to rally support to stand up against constitution injustice, President Trump has always advocated respect for law enforcement, as well as advocated against violence. President Trump wasn't responsible for the uncalled for riot on the Capitol, millions of Americans firmly believe that was yet another show staged by Dictator Pelosi to make President Trump look even worse than before and to ultimately start a second Impeachment Trial.
Biden and Dictator Pelosi are attempting to limit the rights of anyone whom is opposed to the Communist Democrat Party, in short the CDP.
Biden is also focusing on "Made in America" by signing an essentially useless executive order that will not do anything to ensure that the government spends more money on American Made Products. So far the administration has costed Trillions of dollars to our economy and counting daily, I am still waiting on the positive effects of Biden as President, we are almost a week into the Biden administration and it is almost like everyone forgot about the stimulus packages that he promised immediately once he took office...
I guess the priority of disqualifying President Trump 2024 and whom to print on a $20 bill that is becoming obsolete is more important than delivering the help Biden campaigned for, after all, he Biden said in Georgia, "if you elect these Demoncrat's Will pass a $2,000.00 Stimulus Bill as soon as I take office. I am sure the over 11,000 people who have already lost their jobs because Biden could really use the $1,400.00 right now..
President Trump's 2nd Impeachment Trial
President Trump is currently enjoying his much earned vacation time in Florida after the defeat, meanwhile politicians are still focused on keeping the country away from President Trump. Social Media has banned the President in attempts to keep the movement silent, President Trump doesn't seem as concerned with this impeachment as he was with the previous Impeachment.
Although he should slightly be concerned about the private meetings of Republicans and Demoncrats alone. The threat of a back room deal between Demoncrats and Republicans is rather hopefully for those wanting to Impeach Trump for the SECOND TIME! President Trump has made clear to the Republican Party that if they do not back him, President Trump will officially start his very own party, "The MAGA Party"
While I support President Trump over the illegitimate president 7 days a week, 365 days a year, President Trump is mistaken, The MAGA Party has always existed in the United States. We just never put a label on ourselves until now, then again, we haven't ever had anyone ever fight for Americans, not overstep our reach on foreign policies when we need to clean our own homes. The MAGA Party is here to stay, The MAGA Party has been accounting for all of the politicians whom violated our constitution.
The politicians whom are waging war against Americans, the Constitution and the ones that only back major corporations. Democrats are joining MAGA, Republicans are joining MAGA, Liberals are joining MAGA and so are Conservatives. Over 80 Million and grow stronger every day, we don't even have to advertise our Political Party, the media is doing that enough for us.
The media alone has converted Millions and Millions of Democrats, Liberals, Conservatives and Republicans. They are truly uniting the American people in a way that they never wanted. Americans are waking up to the reality of what is really going on in the background and most of them are Pissed Off beyond belief that this is still on going. I just hope we don't have the same issues in 2 years or 4 years from now with the election fraud, however we haven't addressed the election fraud yet, so, it won't change.
BITCOIN
**Bitcoin:** is fighting to get back above $32K the Media is being extremely biased towards Bitcoin, attempting to shove it to the background and out of positive spotlight after running the rumor of the double spend and attempting to imply that Bitcoin is retreating back majorly while for those of us that watch the charts, we are seeing some thing totally different.
Those of us the watch institutions are seeing some thing totally different as well. I believe that we are battling one of the toughest barriers right now, Bitcoin keeps trying to brake away from $30K but seems to be stuck in a game of Ping Pong with the charts right now. My major concern after spending hours today review historic data from Bitcoin is seeing a new low emerge of some where between $18K to $25K
Now, with that potential low I just stated, I am seeing even more potential for $56K Bitcoin for the first week of February, if not sooner. The road to $56K will be seen with price fluctuations ranging from $1,200 up $8,000 up and down as we walk sideways towards either target.
Bitcoin honestly needed a cool down period in my opinion, this isn't such a bad thing, we are seeing institutions taking advantages of these dips, we could see major resistance like this at every $20K interval depending upon traders.
Bitcoin Cash: it is said that Ethereum is going to have exponential gains, in comparison the gains seen with Ethereum will ne nothing to what we are going to see Bitcoin Cash do. I favor Bitcoin Cash as being the next major stop for Bitcoin investors considering it is a hard fork of the beloved Bitcoin, historically BCH follows the same trend line as Bitcoin.
BCH had a high of $450 in the last 24 hours and is currently at $427 as of writing this article. I would say we will be flirting with that $600 barrier again within the first week of February, if not sooner.
Ethereum is holding over $1,320.00 and Media is to blame for the price increases as they seem to be attempting to divert the attention away from Bitcoin and drive it into Ethereum. I love the idea of Ethereum, but $5 and up for even the smallest transactions isn't doable for any crypto currencies to survive indefinitely. You may be able to ride the waves and make a ton of profit, I just don't seen Ethereum in the long run unless the gas prices are fixed.
My Final Thoughts
Has anyone begun to wonder why after the United States elections are concluded that Corona Virus seems to be out of focus? The pandemic is being treated as if though it is nothing? One Covid-19 Vaccine as already been proven to weaken the immune system against other strains of covid-19 Politics are still out of control, Biden has lost thousands of jobs and costed the United States Trillions of dollars and out ragged Democrats, Republicans, Conservatives and Liberals.
United States Government is trying to take away freedom of speech from Americans, to be more specific, the ability for Americans to speak out against the Government, now if this law passes and I disappear, you know where I will be. I won't be silenced by any one except God and that is how every human being in the World should feel despite of what country you live in. I think society has came beyond the points of needing centralized government.
Governments will always have the need to divide people amongst each other, the need for conflict in order to gain power and oppress opposition. Government could be said to be the greatest evil. I know the forefathers of America seen the surreal threat of a Government ran by Politicians with so much power that they eventually attack their own citizens resulting in Civil Wars with large amounts of lives lost.
They were smart enough to foresee the future of Politics, they warned the people to abstain from making career politicians, yet over the years we have seen Politicians make more money than the people falsely swear to represent. Politicians whom vote themselves above the law and pay raises while telling their own citizens, no, you don't need any more money.
We have bigger issues that need addressed in our World than politics, like, anyone care to investigate the "Sex Trafficking Rings" that are kidnapping, raping and murdering young girls all over the World? What the reporters whom have all investigated these organizations and have winded up committing suicide? What about the mysterious suicide of Jeffrey Epstein whom was scheduled to testify, his testimony alone would have sent most of the political leaders in the United States to JAIL!
What about China? China is like a raging time bomb looking to explode the first chance they get, Iran? Korea? Afghanistan? Iraq? We deserve to be free and to live our lives happily without all the Bull Shit that comes from Politics. I wonder if the World would have as many conflicts if we done away with Governments and opened up borders?
We will always have crime in the World, that will never change. I just long for the day that we see a truly decentralized Government that controlled by real majorities World Wide and not by some career politician sitting in an office getting buttered up by some billion dollar corporation in order to get favoritism. I grown accustomed to the whole, which person would not screw us the most in office, when in fact, we should not ever have to think that way about elected officials.
They should be sworn in by the people for the people, not by the people for the corporations. That is one thing that blows my mind, like, seriously? How in the hell do most of these Politicians still have jobs? That alone is enough to cast doubt on the election system itself. These people that do nothing other than attack it's citizens they are sworn to protect? I would have been fired or would have fired and employee that acts the way these Politicians do.
That is enough of my fed up rant, how about you?

In The World of Bitcoin Futures, I'm Down $8.00
Overview
I have been the World of Crypto Currencies for some time now, I have recently in the past month begun the journey of Crypto Trading, since I am poor, I am not able to make significant trades which in turn cuts down on the profit potential, this fact alone makes it significantly harder to make my way towards 1 BTC, which I plan to accomplish solely by trading Bitcoin alone.
If not, well, I guess I am going to lose more than I can honestly afford to while I try. The whole concept of Futures Trading is still new to me, while I am still learning while I attempt to perfect my trading, I have to admit that Futures are the way to go. Futures are more than likely the sole factor to Bitcoin price fluctuations the way we have been seeing lately. That statement, while it is speculation, I know a ton of crypto fanatics such as myself that would say, "you nailed it!"
While others would say, "while it does contribute some, it's not the driving factor," I can not really argue with either side, I gave my opinion.
What is Bitcoin Futures Trading?
Simply put, Bitcoin Futures is a form of a Trading Loan. The current exchange that I am using is Kucoin. Kucoin gives users whom are not KYC verified up to 20x trading leverage, what does that mean? Essentially you can borrow $20 per $1 that you hold. This can be dangerous on several different aspects for the borrower, I have already lost $8.00 USD by attempting to learn Futures Trading.
Last night alone, I started a trade for $5.00 USD The trade alone allowed me to turn my $5 into .003 BTC worth almost $100.00 USD The trade got liquidated at around $31K resulting in the loss of my $5.00
The "Liquidation Price" is the price at which you will lose your assets that you have leveraged. I could have set the stop loss and the take profit feature before I fell asleep which would have resulted in a decent profit, but I didn't. The assets got liquidated and I lost another $5.00.
as of this current moment, I am in a trade with almost $10.00 in assets, .006 BTC I opened the trade at $32,545 The liquidation price is $31,084 and the current price of Bitcoin is at $32,287 which means as of this moment, unless Bitcoin surges up past $32,540 I am at risk of losing up to $10.00 which would bring my total loss to $18.00
I could sell out at this current time and purchase back in shorting Bitcoin, which seems like the trend for the rest of the night. I am expecting to see Bitcoin shoot up once more before diving over the next 8 hours. While typing this, I got distracted with dinner and conversation with my mother-in-law and noticed the price has already dived down to $31,700
My Goals
I will hopefully be able to trade my way up to 1 whole Bitcoin, I started with an initial $5 and have already lost $8 I am working on losing another $10.00 at the current moment, I am ready to re-invest if need be, I am hoping to develop a better strategy sooner than later. Overall the goal one of BTC is not far fetched, I am not sure that using Futures will be the best bet to make the goal a reality, I am however giving it a go for my money.
My Final Thoughts
The main contributing success factor in every success story is all of the failed attempts before actually getting it correct. You have to be prepared to fail and learn from your mistakes in life, that is the hardest part that drives so many to accept defeat and give up on their passions in life. Greed can also be a factor that can set you up for failure in life.
I like to set down and think over my mistakes, hopefully by analyzing my mistakes in life I will be able to switch the game plan and have better results. Obviously I wasted a lot of my life before actually dedicating myself to my dreams and passions, I don't fault my parents, but they are some what to blame for this scenario. My parents are working class people, they are comfortable working a 9 to 5 job and living a normal life.
Thy didn't aspire to do anything major in life beyond raising children and enjoying life, like I said, I can't fault them for the choice they made. Ultimately, I believe I was stuck in the mind frame of being a worker, instead of actually trying to make wealth for myself. I find it especially important to influence my four children to follow their dreams and to never give up despite of failure.
Hopefully one day when they are grown and venturing out on their own they will look back at a hopefully successful father by that point in time and find motivation to continue to stand back up every time they get knocked down and continue trying. We often lose sight of being able to do anything that we set our minds to.

China vs Taiwan, of course the United States will intervene, won't they?
https://www.bostonglobe.com/2021/01/24/world/us-reaffirms-taiwan-support-after-china-sends-warplanes/
China: in an attempt to intimidate Taiwan's leaders flew War Planes above Taiwan as a subtle warning to see if they would catch the attention of the United States and that, they did. Biden's family has strong alleged ties with China, not in the way Taiwan would probably hope for, if the rumors and documents leaded hold up to be true than the World could be in trouble with the ties of a Biden-China relationship, would he sell out Taiwan though?
I would hope not, China is a force that needs to be reckoned with, China was even starting to test the boundaries in the last of President Trump's administration, President Trump didn't hesitate to flex the navy towards China just to show that we can do the same exact thing they can and we are not losing a wink of sleep over China, but I think the World should probably wake up to the fact that China is a ticking time bomb and is about ready to explode worse than the American Citizens at the moment.
World War 3 could be on the brink at any hour now, as history tends to repeat itself, so does conflict in times of pandemics leading to great depressions. China, Iran, Korea, and Russia are some serous threats, especially if they combine forces and start doing what ever they want to do.
President Biden, is he trying to make America worse again?
https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/destructive-protests-by-anarchists-and-extremists-signal-divided-left-as-biden-administration-begins/2021/01/23/70f93610-5d8c-11eb-a976-bad6431e03e2_story.html
Just hours after the Inauguration of the 46 President of the United States, President J. Biden. A group of Democrats/Liberals, rioted in the streets of Portland, as well as a group in Seattle where multiple business were attacked. I find it surprising that the "Maga Party" nor the Republican Party was involved in these Riots. I find it odd that if the left didn't all vote for Biden, who did they vote for?
I would assume not President Biden, but oddly enough they also hate President Trump? Odd that it seems like BLM and Antifa are anti Biden, I know for a fact Antifa if pro Biden, you don't believe me? Go ahead and type Antifa.com into your browser and watch it go straight to whitehouse.gov the site is managed by the founder of Antifa, which is allegedly funded by Biden and his supporters.
Antifa is the alleged group to responsible for the rioting we seen over the summer of 2020 while arrest during that time frame seem to be far and few in between in comparison to the witch hunt after the riot at the Capitol Building. Americans should concern themselves with the Anti Gun legislation that will be coming in the near future as a direct result of the stupidity of millions of Americans. Americans should also expect to see the right to Freedom of Speech be infringed upon on the basis of incitement, which could widely be interpreted by anyone in power to silence any opposition.
President Biden hasn't got off to a good start with Canada.
Biden issued an executive order to halt the Keystone XL Pipeline from Canada, while by urged to not issue the executive order by lawmakers whom warned Biden it would cost over 11,000 American jobs. The goal of the Keystone XL Pipeline was to make America less dependent on foreign oil, I suspect maybe Biden wants to have some time for his son to talk Justin in Canada and see about a slight kick back his direction.
I say that jokingly, but at the same time I wouldn't be shocked by it. Biden also re-joined the Paris Climate Agreement after being urged by lousy Mitch McConnel not to rejoin, stating that it would only increase the financial burden on American families whom are already afflicted enough due to the current pandemic. Honestly, I have to agree with Mitch here.
I have read the Paris Climate Agreement and I still don't know who controls the money, what kind of staffing they have, how much are they paying themselves from these funds, where are the funds going? I am not okay with the Paris Climate agreement, I find the wording very cultish, kind of like the whole, "New World Order" garbage.
The facts are that Americans already have plenty of tax incentives in order to go green and decrease our dependencies from fossil fuels. Corporations in America whether I agree with the leadership or not, are already heavily working to lower emissions, which is the whole concept of the Paris Climate Agreement, why do you need an agreement if you are already doing it?
Mr. President Biden, I have to ask you, "What kind of kick back are getting from this $100 Billion every year"? I know it isn't the satisfaction of knowing we are producing a safer future for our future generations. The United States could spend $100 Billion each year on solar energy panels for Americans until America's energy is completely green. That alone wouldn't take a long time considering the research by one of my favorite people Elon Musk who calculated the amount of solar panels and batteries to take the United States off the grid.
I would almost want to say that Elon Musk would be happy to take $100 Billion a year from American tax payers to make that happen, in turn the World would benefit tremendously.
Bitcoin, as we venture into the early morning hours of Sunday January 24, 2021 BTC is fighting to get above $33K up almost $4,000 from it's recent low of $28,975.00 Bitcoin appears to be on a climb up, in a time when the market is highly unpredictable, a lot of speculators are saying that we haven't even entered the bull run yet.
All the hype that we have seen in the last 6 months is nothing more than institutional hype at best. Honestly, they are kind of on the right track with that train of thought. I have said it before as well, "We don't need institutions for Bitcoin to survive," although they will most definitely speed up the process for all of us involved.
It may be hard to currently judge the market as to whether you should get in or not, the Worlds largest fund manager Black Rock, just authorized it's funds to invest in Bitcoin, we all should basically know what that means... What's good for Bitcoin is good for the Crypto World as the Bitcoin glass always over flows into other Crypto's.
While I am not an investment Broker and I don't give Investment advise, I strictly give opinions, right or wrong. As far as the ones speculating that Bitcoin is done, it's all over, pack your bags and go home, I am not going to waste more time than that. Bitcoin isn't done.
XRP: after trading was halted by Coinbase.com XRP price has basically not been effected the slightest. XRP still holding strong around .30 right now, I still feel confident that we will see a significant price jump in the near future. Japan is doing some amazing things in support of XRP which could potentially hurt the United States in the Crypto World.
When you are launching a Crypto and you have countries that seem to make it next to impossible, while other countries welcome crypto with less regulations, you tend to go for less burdens and more acceptance. Considering I am an American, I have long since the invention of Bitcoin held out hopes that the United States would lead the way in adoption, I am rather disappointed.
BCH: currently around $440.00 and still following the paths of it's predecessor, I love Bitcoin Cash so much so that I have decided to partake in the 1 BCH Challenge that I have noticed other bloggers doing as of lately. I will be from today forward actively working towards obtaining 1 whole BCH without purchasing any BCH from FIAT funds. I am sure the challenge will be easy in comparison to the 1 BTC challenge that I think is going to take me some time to accomplish.
My Final Thoughts
This day and age I find relaxing to see images as the one above, it helps remind me, that in the bigger picture of "The Universe" we as human beings are merely "ants" in a "ant hole." While life itself may have great value, after over 2,000 years of documented life, we barely embarked on the journey of discoveries. We still have sections of our current world that Scientist are still studying and finding new creatures, organisms.
We have millions of miles of cave systems that have not been discovered, not to even mention the massive ocean that we haven't even searched 25 % of due to the obvious obstacles that we face in doing so. Scientist are still dedicated to thoroughly search the Ocean and discovering every last form of life in the sea.
I applaud the innovative efforts of Elon Mush, I admire the work he has done, I know one day our future generations will be reading about one of the greatest inventors and richest person that ever lived, hopefully while they learn how he helped us get away from being stranded on planet Earth.
I am pro life and I believe that every one should have the right to life and the right to breed, I believe that everyone should have the right to just live, as our population continues to grow and we continue to deplete natural resources that we are unable to measure and account for as to the supply, we have to already be looking for the Planet Earth #2 or Mars.
I am really fond of the Mars project in general, as the Mars project if successful will ultimately give humankind the ability to terraform any planet into a healthy livable planet, hopefully this would reduce crowding and in turn result in peace for all of humankind. Elon Mush made history, being the first private corporation to take astronauts to the International Space Station.
The World is going crazy, the pandemic, the rioting, the rigged elections, civil unrest, Countries Leaders butting heads, Communism attempting to rule the World. We are on the brink of some major life changing times that will effect the entire world as a whole. The tensions with China and other countries could ultimately spark the fuse to World War 3, President Biden has already made over 50% of Americans angry, his track record for foreign diplomacy isn't doing so great right now.
President Biden has implied to World that he is a weak leader and he will run and hide like a coward to save his own life, also America's two closest allies aren't too happy with the new administration. Canada isn't pleased with Biden cancelling the pipeline, Mexico isn't pleased with Biden's nosy policies. I think Mexico liked the wall being built, ultimately it would shut down the dangerous drug trafficking rings living in border towns trying to smuggle drugs, money and guns in and out of the United States.
The events transpiring on a daily basis is building the room for mass conspiracy theories which oddly enough make a lot of sense, like they could actually be true, but we won't know until we know, but until next time, Thanks For Reading, God Bless You and Stay Healthy!
Bitcoin Below $30K???
Bitcoin Dips Below $30K
Bitcoin dips below $30K for the first time since January 5, 2021 just 16 days above $30K before Bitcoin falls below $30k. The potential outcomes are still in play, if you follow along with my articles you will recall I said, "Bitcoin will either hit $42K and than rocket to $60K or we would see a decent price correction to 29K to $32 at best and the worse case it would hit $27K.
Now with some unwarranted publicity that may be scaring financial institutions into dumping Bitcoin, as well as some statements made that have been damaging to Bitcoin. I have heard a decent amount of buzzing around the internet about the whole double spending.
The reports that double spending has occurred on the Bitcoin Block chain is a critical slur that scares people from Bitcoin. You should really do homework before making investments, Bitcoin Cash as well as Bitcoin and hundreds of other Crypto Currencies amongst us right now currently work on the Proof-Of-Work Consensus. What is Proof-Of-Work?
I would put it into simple terms by almost quoting a video I have referenced in the past, Proof Of Work is "the "ledger" with the most work done," now let's think about the BCH hard-fork. The ledger split into two different "Ledgers" that lead to the creation of two different currencies.
Now if I wanted to spend $20.00 twice on Bitcoin, I would need a server big enough in order to compete with the already existing consensus, I could send Person A $20 and Person B $20, while letting Person A still use the already existing ledger in order to believe the real transaction that has taken place, I could than broadcast a fake ledger to Person B making Person B believe the fake "Ledger" ultimately on a Hard-Forked Ledger of Bitcoin.
I would have to have enough computing resources in order to stay ahead of everyone else whom trusting a false ledger, that is why we have a consensus in place to trust the ledgers coming from miners that have the most proof of work, making them the most trustworthy nodes. While it is not impossible to hack Bitcoin, it would take a major amount of resources to manipulate or fake the Bitcoin ledger and get miners to ultimately believe the fake ledger over the real ledger.
I urge you do research this until you have the full understanding of how the blockchain consensus really works, unfortunately this will hurt Bitcoin and it will send a ripple wave about the already shaken community with XRP being targeted amongst the handful over Crypto Currencies that the United States SEC filed suits against before Clayton abruptly resigned leaving Gensler with the work load.
The United States has a lot of Officials taking over the ranks where it really counts towards crypto, speculators including myself have warned everyone about the potentially for investors to jump into the market, make billions and than dump everything while laughing to the FIAT Banks. I have also stated the FACT that the Crypto World welcomes these investors but we will never need them to ultimately see Million Dollar Bitcoin.
The world whether the media wants it to be true or not, is turning to the blockchain and while paper currency will take awhile to diminish FIAT will be gone for good sooner than later, despite the critics that say Gold is obsolete? Come on, Gold won't every disappear. Gold will always continue to be a form of accepted currency, people will always trade Gold, people will always wear Gold, the market for Gold is increasing, just not as the market for crypto or the blockchain.
We always have to think about the surreal threat of Solar Winds that would wipe out power grids World-Wide and take civilization back to the dark ages, while it may sound like the punch line to a sci-fi movie, it is indeed a real threat to society. Scientist are probably more afraid of a Solar Eruption than the effects of Climate Control. Which Climate Control Activist like to also target Bitcoin and other Crypto's because of energy consumption levels, like digital FIAT doesn't waste countless KWH's of electric?
We have so far seen a low of $28,732.00 which is about $2K above what I am expecting to be the lowest, that estimate depends entirely upon the social sentiment over the next 48 hours, as it could turn extremely negative with campaigns to attack crypto in efforts to preserve the FIAT currency, which is doomed by the politicians whom over inflate USD and other currencies.
The price of Bitcoin is at $30,463.00 and bouncing up and down, I would highly caution any incoming investments, I personally won't be folding now or ever, I will ride the ship all the way down to the bottom of the sea racking up as much as I can on the way, waiting for the straight line up to come.
I seen an article the other day talking about why the author thought this wasn't the "Bull Run" and while I can't really disagree, it is however evident that we are in a very bullish/bearish market right now and the pull backs we are seeing right now are very much anticipated pull backs by a lot of speculators online and depending on how Bitcoin reacts we could see some amazing prices in the weeks to come.

The World & Crypto with Rutkowski Edition #7
Census Bureau Director Forced to Resign amidst incoming Biden Administration
Steven Dillingham, the Director of Census Bureau was forced to resign his position amidst the incoming Biden Administration, but that is not all. Dillingham was also forced to stop gathering census information which could potentially prove the Fraud claims of the Presidential Election 2020 by President Trump. Honestly it is no surprise that over 74 million Americans are outraged and the growing number of people whom used to be Democrat is growing as they attempt to isolate themselves from the New "Communist Democrat Party" I don't say this lightly.
Nancy Pelosi Continues to attack Opposition, Dare I say Dictator Pelosi?
Pelosi is now demanding the acting Chief of the Pentagon halt his order to the NSA to employ a "Trump loyalist" an overstep of authority? I would say that at the very least. Pelosi has no authority over the Chief of the pentagon, their is a reason why he has the power to appoint someone and she does not. Nancy Pelosi is attacking anyone with patriotic values that doesn't support her political agenda or party in itself.
Meanwhile the NSA affirmed that it will in fact move forward with the hiring process after Ellis accepted the job on Saturday, Nancy Pelosi is most likely having a fit right now in the multi million dollar mansion.
President Biden, A man with a plan!
President Biden is still campaigning his $1.9 Trillion Dollar Stimulus Package, as well as telling News Media Sources that he will be undoing most of what President Trump has done over the last 4 years. This doesn't come as a surprise, President Biden has been campaigning heavily on his plans for the United States which involved undoing what the Trump Administration has done.
I asked a psychic what opinion of Bitcoin was, she said, she wasn't familiar with Bitcoin itself, but she had seen a really negative news segment the other day about the price going doing, she said, she felt that intuitively it felt like the media was down talking Bitcoin in an effort to get the price down more before it really goes up, she said, they are using fear to drive the price down but it won't last long.
Take that with a grain of salt, but my Girlfriend was watching a live Tik-Tok of this lady whom has a known track record for being correct, I jokingly told her to ask her what she thought about Bitcoin.
Bitcoin has been stuck in what I would call a game ping pong lately, bouncing from $40K to $34K and back up again, leaving investors and traders to wonder which direction Bitcoin's Price will break out, I hold out hope that Bitcoin will continue to grow, which I know it will.
Some speculate, the price volatility will ultimately harm the previously seen growth rate, but have they looked at the Political Spectrum lately? The Media influence? The general users? I have, I don't see any thing in the coming future that even hints to anything like 2017 repeating itself.
The major Media flip flops with the price of Bitcoin, this leaving me to conclude that the Media Spotlight may be slightly more volatile than Bitcoin itself. I haven't seen much in terms of a price impact from social sentiment as such. I have noticed that the more financial institutions get involved, the more regular people like myself jump into Crypto.
Bitcoin is the Gold of Digital Currency, just like Gold itself will never be worthless, Bitcoin itself will not either, on the other hand Gold will not ever see the price levels of Bitcoin in anyone's lifetime that is currently reading this. Maybe one day in a very far future could Gold itself be competitive with that of Bitcoin.
Effective on January 19, 2021 XRP trading will officially be halted on Coinbase Exchanges pending the future outcome of the current case, SEC VS Ripple. Ripple maintains it's stance that no one could even remotely relate the Crypto with the performance of the company Ripple, however, on February 22, 2021, Gensler, the predecessor of Clayton will argue a rather convincing scenario, XRP is indeed a Security and should had been registered as such.
The long standing facts of XRP, it was created by Ripple to be used as a means of converting FIAT and transferring any amount of money the user wants, with a targeted client base consisting of Banks and Financial Institutions. Gensler will argue that the price of XRP can directly be altered by the success or failure of Ripple as a whole. Also that the founders of XRP are guilty of price manipulation.
Now, a key argument against that would be, without Ripple doing business XRP will still be XRP and will still be used by millions of people, therefore making it a crypto currency itself. Now, as we can see by combing through the data, XRP hit a high of .66 USD and potentially could have soared off the charts, but then came the announcement that derailed XRP's progress resulting in the loss of Billions of Dollars for people World-Wide.
Reportedly $50,000,000,000.00 was sold off following the announcement alone, not to mention the days following that panicked investors jumped out of XRP, I almost jumped out at .17 XRP. I done more research instead, I looked at what ripple had done for XRP and where the chart projected the growth of XRP without factoring in Ripple's association. I than purchased more XRP, I know XRP is a crypto currency, so, why not? right?
Grundfest in a letter to former SEC Chief Clayton, advised him against filing legal action against XRP, as doing so would result in the loss of millions of dollars to innocent 3rd party investors, such as you and I. Grundfest said, "no pressing reason compels immediate enforcement action." Clayton then resigned one day later on December 18, 2020.
Will the fact that XRP has been left alone for nearly a decade without any enforcement actions being taken, XRP has been deemed a Crypto Currency by foreign nations, XRP can be used to purchase almost anything. My opinion is, one of two things could happen. We could have a quick ruling that the Clayton overstepped his authority and the suit could be dropped before it even gains traction.
The case could also go though the entire court process, ending in one of two different ways. The first one would ultimately benefit everyone currently holding XRP. The judge could rule that XRP is a security, Ripple illegally sold an unregistered Security and make them forfeit all money they made from the sales of XRP. The judge then again could rule in the best interest of the general public and impose a hefty fine along with barring those responsible from running Ripple in the future, while deeming XRP a Currency once and for all.
While this lawsuit itself may not be the death of XRP, it very well could in fact be the death of Ripple, which is far worse in my opinion, but would help another asset majorly. Ripple ultimately built XRP, Ripple gets customers like Money Gram and Banks to convert FIAT to XRP and send the money on the ledger to whom ever, where ever in the World for fractions of a penny.
Without Ripple backing XRP like this, XRP will ultimately decline in transactions from financial institutions, without Ripple XRP losses it's purpose. The community involved in XRP could pick up and move forward as the Ledger is open source, hint FLR.
The worse thing that could happen to XRP is, Ripple forfeits its assets to the United States Government, Ripple closes its doors and moves over seas where XRP is already deemed a Currency and they proceed where they left off, now, would they still go by Ripple? would they still use XRP?
These are the factors that have me only holding a few hundred XRP, You should be very cautious that the SEC has the legal grounds to deem XRP as a Security by case law. I could speculate all day long on the legal avenues that each side has. Ultimately unless Ripple can work out an agreement with Gensler, the fate of Ripple will rest with the judge whom presides over the case.
The fate of XRP ultimately rest in our hands, we, the community can still develop with XRP, we can still trade and transact with XRP, unless you are from the United States and don't know what a V.P.N. is... I wouldn't recommend anyone to invest into XRP unless you have money you can afford to lose. Now, if, and only if XRP can win the case and business can continue as normal, XRP will have been more than worth holding onto.
I have to say I am honestly scared to see what happens once Coinbase officially cuts off trading tomorrow. Just as a reminder, you can still safely store XRP on Coinbase, you can still withdraw your XRP from Coinbase at any time. That is provided that the SEC doesn't file anything against Coinbase in an attempt to cease all XRP. I will more than likely be moving my XRP to a wallet on a USB Flash Drive until the dust settles. I don't want to risk my assets being seized.
Worse case scenario, I don't buy a new VPN and I don't go online to a "Foreign Exchange" and I don't sell off my XRP and send some Bitcoin to another wallet.
XLM: while it seems as if though XRP, Ripple are the only ones doing anything in the financial industry in an effort to bring all FIAT Transactions to the blockchain, Stellar has been working just as hard, if not, harder than Ripple to accomplish the same goals. XLM has always seemed to move slightly behind XRP until the "SEC VS Ripple" announcement made the spotlight.
XLM currently trading at just barely below .30 USD at .2995 seems to be on it's second rally, if we look back at history as guidance on what to expect, we could expect to see XLM go well over $1.20 That may not seem feasible at the current market cap of just below $1 Billion.
Hindsight, be aware, be very aware that XLM is just like XRP, I can not stress this enough. XLM could be the future subject in a SEC lawsuit. I am not saying that will happen, but depending on the outcome of the SEC VS Ripple, Stellar could be the next target.
Now, Ripple could get shut down, Stellar could be left un touched. Unlikely, but we will find out in the coming months.
BCH: up to almost $520.00 BCH is moving right along as expected. Bitcoin Cash since the Hard Fork BCH has held the second spot on my list. We seen BCH at $3,650 for its all time high, I haven't heard anyone really speculate much about BCH, everyone seems to dismiss it's importance.
BCH brought about the focus on Retail Transactions using the Bitcoin ledger. Bitcoin Cash has the advantage of operating from the most trusted Digital Currencies ledger as well as the name association. BCH transactions are almost as cheap as XRP. I have for a long time said that BCH in all logic should follow a likewise accelerated path as that of Bitcoin itself.
I look for the price of BCH to make it up to $12,000.00 or more for a high this year alone. Call me crazy, but wait until December of 2021 to start doing so, you don't want to be wrong yourself.
My Final Thoughts
I think we are still merely in the beginning stages of Crypto acceptance, right now we are going to see a major shift in Market Caps as investors start to learn how to play the market downslides. We are entering the stages of A.I. trading that is advanced enough to see a profit from utilizing it. I will be releasing an article this week about using A.I. to automate your trading, I am learning myself...
I would say that will have successfully broke the $40K barrier by Sunday of this week for Bitcoin, we still have a major chance for an even higher price correction to come this week. I know that contradicts the previous statement, but have you seen the ping pong action of Bitcoin not knowing which way it wants to break out?
I am still fed up with Political B.S. The SEC, Democrats, Republicans. I am tired of the major distraction taking place in the United States, the censorship by tech giants, watching the people "elected" to serve our constitution and the "people" on live television say they took an oath to protect the constitution, but justify violating it because they don't like President Trump.
The Tech giants hiding every thing incriminating about President Biden and his son, like I forgot that Hunter Biden took money from China, Russia and other countries and gave it to than V.P. Biden and most likely President Obama as well. I am sick of Nancy Pelosi trying to ruin the United States for the last 4 years while blaming President Trump for everything.
Also, for the life of me, I can not understand why on earth, anyone would think that a politician that has been a career politician for the last almost 50 years, 8 years spent living in the White House already, not one important piece of legislation ever passed. President Biden did get a Bill passed that ultimately imprisoned hundreds of thousands of African Americans.
You won't hear about that from Fox, CNN, ABC or the New York Times. The also won't tell you how President Biden attended the funeral of an actual "White Supremacist" Groups leader, he read the mans eulogy for him. The President of the United States, President Joseph Biden said the man was his mentor, he had a great deal of respect for the man and admired him deeply.
Yet they call anyone a "White Supremacist" that supports President Trump? I always thought the term "White Supremacist" to apply to people such as myself, White Caucasian Crackers. Yes, I called myself a cracker, I know, I know, please don't fault me for being a cracker. I didn't choose to be born this way. Although I am being labeled a "White Supremacist," I am not.
The facts of life are, I love my country, I love my rights, the right to bear arms, freedom of speech and the right for anyone to worship or not worship whom ever or what ever they want regardless of what anyone thinks. The United States was created on the basis of the Holy Bible, but ever the forefathers of the United States knew the importance of true freedom.
They wrote the constitution to be King over any president, senator, civilian, country, state. The constitution, article 1, section 4 specifically gives legislatures the power to set guidelines for voting, if any issues arise Congress may intervene. The supreme courts under an interpretation clause decided they could ultimately intervene over the legislatures and congress and make the call to change the guidelines.
You can only interpret whom has the power to make those decisions in one way, the legislature or congress, in no way does that imply the supreme court. The supreme court would have been listed as an avenue had the forefathers intended it to be used for such matters. This alone violate the constitution and was upheld by officials whom are sworn to uphold the constitution and no one is even noticing it.
Even if the election was rigged, the supreme court being able to over ride the constitution and dictate what they want done? That was a major foul, ultimately Americans are giving up the constitution in hopes that in the future the 9 justices of the supreme court won't be influenced to violate the rights that every American believes we still have.
Going forward in the future the conspiracy theories will continue to circulate, the election process will never be trusted again in the United States, potential for civil war is extremely high. Just think, this could have been avoided by the states that are being questioned.
They could have done the audits with the criteria they are legally required to use and made it public. Every Democrat has fought the Trump administration from auditing any part of the election, even to the point they forced the director of the census bureau to halt his investigation that was ordered by president trump and forced him to resign early.
What are these guys hiding? I hate to even think it, I didn't believe the Fraud Claims at first. The more I look into it, the more I see evidence of cover up after cover up, you can only hide for so long until every thing comes out in the wash.
Moving forward I will not covering Politics beyond Stimulus Packages that ultimately benefit the World of Crypto, hopefully one day the Satoshi dream comes true, a decentralized government.

The World & Crypto with Rutkowski
XRP is currently trading just above .28 cents with the scheduled pre trial to take place on Feb 22, 2021 The new incoming SEC official Gary Gensler
Gensler has been cited as being pro crypto, however he may not be so much pro XRP. The allegations against Ripple are serious allegations on many different levels. The reality of the matter is no matter what the ruling of the courts in the matter of the SEC vs Ripple is, XRP will still exist.
XRP is essentially decentralized blockchain meaning no one person has control over it's ledger. Ripple sells it's software to banks that allows it to use Ripple for converting money and sending large sums, for instance, Banks, Money Gram and companies of that nature.
Ripple has been rather successful in doing so if I may say so. Where did Ripple go wrong? We would have to start with Howey vs SEC a.k.a. The Howey Rule, this case alone sets the precedence on how the SEC deems anything an Security. By the standards of the SEC vs Howey, it was deemed that when you sell something to someone and that person is expecting to profit off of the asset you sold them, it is by that definition a Security.
Also being that Ripple used to refer to XRP as "Ripples" back in 2013 before they started asking people to not associate the two together any longer, however, it has been long since implied that the success of Ripple as a company will ultimately weigh in on the success of XRP itself. That is major factor that should by "Case Law" land XRP on the SEC's list of Securities.
What will happen to all of the XRP that Ripple currently holds? What will happen to the XRP that you currently hold? Can the United States shut down XRP? What could happen to price? We will find out in the Months to come.
**Bitcoin** is currently around $36,724.00 down around $3,400 from it's recent high around $40,124.00 Bitcoin seems to be fighting the same resistance some speculate that another correction is in the forecast while others speculate we are past this correction and we are currently experiencing some resistance at the $40K level, time will tell all.
**Vladimir Putin**
Russia will be pulling out of the Open Skies Treaty amongst President Biden coming into office, President Trump left the agreement with plans of future negotiation, with President Trump leaving office in just 4 days, that'll not be happening. It will fall upon the Biden Administration to bring Russia, Iran and Korea back to negotiations.
Vladimir Putin does not seem to be too keen on jumping into a treaty any time soon, other countries have made multiple allegations that Russia has violated the Treaty repeatedly by not permitting fly overs in certain areas or during certain military drills. It is alleged in part of the Article being prepared for President Biden's Impeachment that he has strong ties with Vladimir Putin, so maybe two ole' friends can come to a truths?
President Biden Campaigning to Gain Support for a $1.9 Trillion Stimulus
President Joe Biden is still trying to get enough support in order to pass his $1.9 Trillion Dollar Stimulus Plan, plenty of Americans could still use the help as the last $600 Dollar payment just isn't enough. Americans have to choose between paying a bill or putting food on the table for themselves or their children. President Biden despite what some may believe has also publicly condemned the people involved in the Capitol Riot.
President Biden has even urged Nancy Pelosi to put aside her own Political agenda and focus on reuniting America and getting help to Americans that need help. We all learned that the Biden/Obama administration was fond of Stimulus Packages, Obama gave a Stimulus to Americans to help prevent another great depression and it helped to stimulate the economy.
The American economy had been doing great until the Pandemic, President Biden is coming into a total wreck. They will have a rough 4 years with the economy in shambles unless President Biden is walking into more than Obama and him had to take on from 2008 to 2016
NRA Filed Bankruptcy
Amidst a law suit New York vs NRA the National Rifle Association an advocacy group for American's second amendment right to bear arms is braking up with New York, filing Bankruptcy, packing it's bags and moving to Texas. Every thing is bigger in Texas, I just wanted to say that, I am not from Texas.

The World & Crypto News with Rutkowski
My mission is to deliver facts to the People, not propaganda! New sources should be strictly non-biased or ratings focused. The News Media should deliver the facts regardless of the owners/writers/anchors views. I find it okay to present your views as well, everyone of us has a right to our own opinions, but not the right to misrepresent the facts in a manner to condemn another party in order to push your agenda on anyone in the World..
Chaos Continues Over President Trump, Taylor Greene is a Women with a Plan!
Congresswoman Taylor Greene of Georgia is currently preparing the Article of Impeachment for President Biden before he even has his inauguration ceremony on January 20, 2021. Congresswomen Taylor Greene is filing the Impeachment as part of Oath she took on the opening day of the 117th Congress January 3, 2021
For more information on this Oath go to www.Senate.gov https://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/briefing/Oath_Office.htm#:~:text=I%20do%20solemnly%20swear%20(or,that%20I%20will%20well%20and
"I *do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter: So help me God."*
The important part here is to "defend the Constitution of the United States." She claims", now lets look at what the constitution as to say about whom has the power to alter election time frames and guidelines.
"The laws governing Senate elections have evolved slowly over time. The Constitution simply states that "The Times, Places and Manner of holding Elections for Senators and Representatives, shall be prescribed in each State by the Legislature thereof; but the Congress may at any time by Law make or alter such Regulations" (Article I, section 4)" From Senate.gov https://www.senate.gov/about/origins-foundations/electing-appointing-senators/contested-senate-elections/election_laws.htm
The Supreme Court violated the Constitution of the United States by ruling on election guidelines that is strictly for Lawmakers as well as Congress to decide. This violation alone being allowed to go unnoticed by so many Americans is Absurd. Congress man and woman as well as, Senator's claiming that they must impeach President Trump for standing up against injustice?
The President of the United States Donald Trump was just Impeached for the second time one January 12, 2021 The first President in the History of the United States that has been impeached twice? The claim this Impeachment was over him inciting violence at the Capitol during the counting of Electoral Colleges.
I knew something was staged and about to happen, you could tell the Media reporting live was waiting for it to happen, I witnessed a Police Officer on C-SPAN telling the crowd to "Come This Way!", after they opened the doors. The Politicians whom have been against President Trump from day one used that so called insurrection as an excuse to allow the "Supreme Courts" the power to abuse the Constitution as they see fit.
What is the point in a document that is being attacked more than Americans can even begin to fathom. The worse attack was the one enacted under the Bush Administration, The Patriot Act, that stripped Americans of all basic privacy and allowed for Law Enforcement to dig deeper with out warrants or other civil procedures that we had in place to protect the American People against an uncontrollable Government.
Now, they are attacking an entire group of individuals that want nothing more than to protect the freedoms of everyone. The News Media CNN FOX CNBC NEWS NOW and all of them are guilty as well as GOOGLE FACEBOOK AND TWITTER. This will ultimately be the turning in America, will the majority have their way and keep their freedoms? or will the minority rise to power, take away all the guns in America and persecute any one whom stands up against them?
I heard several Representatives whom condemned the Democrat Party for this "coup" they are attempting once again in order to prevent President Trump from getting back into office in 2024. The facts are that with the way Democrats are acting the Democrat supporters' are bound to wake up at some point and smell the roses after they realize they have been taken advantage of they will be out ragged and the Democrat Party will than be left with no other choice but to go Conservative because they have already tried Republican and Liberal, they failed.
**$1,900,000,000,000.00 USD $1.9 Trillion Dollar Stimulus Package**
President Biden is going to increase the previous Bills payments to $2,000.00 which will result in an additional payment of $1,400.00 to every eligible American. The President has also set aside almost $500 Billion USD for small business and an almost the same amount to fight Covid-19.
President Biden has also promised to hold China accountable? I personally tend to stay in the know loop but I am still unsure what President Biden meant by holding China accountable and what he is going to hold them accountable for? We already know the tension between the United States and other countries has been intensifying over past two decades with the over step of power by United States Authority Figures.
Bitcoin
Bitcoin BTC is rebounding from it's recent price correction that I and a few others in the Crypto World predicted would happen. I thought Bitcoin would hit $42K and either rocket to $60K or drop to a max low of $27 K. A lot of people are still amazed that Bitcoin has held strong above the $30K barrier.
Some Bitcoin traders that have been in the Market for years are starting to speculate that for now $30K will the new bottom, while I know history tends to repeat itself we could still see up to a 50% price correction, the odds are extremely low considering all the momentum in the crypto sphere as of right now.
The current price of Bitcoin is $39,200.00 Bitcoin has made it over $40K which seems to be the new barrier Bitcoin is fighting to get past. Bitcoin ideally after it builds support to hold the $40K barrier will be headed in almost a straight up line to $60K. Keep in mind that is my opinion only and I am not a financial advisor nor would I want to be one, I only risk money that I am comfortable losing.
Bitcoin Cash
Bitcoin Cash seems to have made it above the $500.00 Mark. Now the true question is how long will it hold the $500 Mark? I have strong theory that I came up with after looking at all the data that I could find that Bitcoin Cash would follow down a similar path as it's predecessor Bitcoin and grow to a value of around $30K within the next two years. That is my price prediction for Bitcoin Cash.
The time frame of two years is because I am not a physic, I can't see the future. I know Bitcoin Cash is highly undervalued when you consider the capabilities of Bitcoin Cash. Bitcoin Cash has a hand up from it's predecessor Bitcoin. Just having Bitcoin in it's name alone gives it massive credibility, the community supporting BCH may tend to be divided a lot but BCH keeps getting better and better.
XRP & XLM
XRP is still tied up in the legal battles as some Exchanges are starting to come out and say that they will ultimately respect the decision of the SEC as whether or not they will continue to support XRP, but they will not be delisting XRP presumptively without being served a Cease & Desist Order from the SEC.
That is the stance that all Exchanges in my opinion should have in regards to the SEC's allegations. It is not for Exchanges or the SEC to decide, ultimately the courts will make the final decision unless the SEC & Ripple come to an agreement on the sidelines which tends to happen more so than an actual verdict.
XRP price continues to hold steady around .30 cents and in my opinion it is waiting to just explode and rocket away catching up for lost time. I hope I am right because I do hold XRP.
XLM Stellar is still holding around .30 cents currently. XLM & XRP are one in the same to me. They use different ledgers with different programming but they serve the same exact purpose. They both aim to replace the prehistoric banking infrastructure known as FIAT. Ultimately with XRP and XLM we can have near instant payment processing World Wide on a Decentralized scale.
XLM and XRP are really undervalued when you consider the Market potential with only two companies in the runner up positions, one XRP (in my opinion) will do very good while the other XLM will stray a little behind. Up until the SEC news I had always thought XLM to move specifically with XRP, since the SEC suit announcement I have seen XLM move more so on it's own than side by side with XRP.
My Final Thoughts
The entire World is currently fighting against Covid-19 and Millions of people throughout the World are losing their lives as a direct result of Covid-19. Some countries are on edge, waiting to see how democracy plays out in the Country that is viewed as, the source of Democracy that condemns all other countries for the lack of Democracy, yet the Politicians make fools of themselves when they represent their own self interest and not that of the people that elected them.
The values and morale's that are exhibited from Democrats doesn't represent the majority of the United States. Most people are respectable Americans that respect others opinions regardless of if we agree or not. We value our right to freedom of speech and our right to bear arms. We all equally want a Government that represents our best interest and when President Trump came along campaigning on how he was going to clean the swamp out, Americans from every race, every walk of life got excited, finally a President for the people by the people.
President Trump has cleared out a lot of garbage over the past four years. President Trump has done a lot of good for Americans, Americas' economy was thriving at a spectacular rate, job rates were at a 50 year low which is phenomenal. America was on Trump Train at full speed and than covid-19 voter fraud, impeachments and here we are awaiting the January 20, 2021 inauguration of President Biden whom already has an article of Impeachment against him.
The American people are wondering what, if anything, will President Donald J. Trump do in order to protect the Constitution of the United States as well as Freedom of Speech and their should be a law against Media agencies over talking a sitting President in order to push their agenda. The President of the United States should be free of interruption from the Press. The Press should thoroughly analyze anything the President says and be non biased in reporting the facts, not miss leading and twisting the facts.
The Press would have you to believe that President Trump passed a bill to separate families at the border, however the law was passed during the Obama/Biden administration, but President Trump caught scrutiny over that Bill when he in Fact repelled that bill and done away with the detainment camps that Obama started.
President Trump also tried to address the nation about Covid-19 when Nancy Pelosi ripped up the Presidents address and tried to pass a bill to restrict the President from being able to implement border restrictions before Covid-19 was full blown in the United States. Democrats fought with President Trump while the media hid that from the spotlight of the American People. Nancy Pelosi after President Trump's remarks about Covid-19 went around ensuring foreigners that we would not be restricting travel.
They than turn around and accuse the President of doing nothing to help protect Americans from Covid-19. In all honesty we would be dealing with Covid-19 no matter what actions anyone takes, are all of these restrictions really helping us? No, they are really doing nothing for us, this is just an attempt to help slow the rate of infection in order to hopefully prevent medical facilities from being used beyond capacity while exhausting all medical supplies.
President Trump has saved thousands of jobs, fed millions of people and has attempted to live up to every campaign promise with the exception of throwing Hillary Clintons ass in jail along with Nancy Pelosi. This time should not be spent with Democrats supporting hatred towards it's opposing party in a communist manner. We have had over 100 arrest following the protest, protestors that did nothing wrong are being targeted because they used freedom of speech to speak out against this treason.
To be honest with everything that I share online and write, you know, facts, I am kind of anticipating the United States Government to arrest me in the near future. The blindness of Americans has to stop, the division of America has to stop, a country that is divided amongst itself will not ever succeed until it finds a common ground.
President Trump deserves the same Respect that I have given to every sitting President, I didn't vote for Obama, Bush or Biden. I gave Obama and Bush respect even though I didn't like anything they did while in office. I don't like rumors of President Biden being a child molester and into sex trafficking, but I don't let fact less information distort my opinions.
I accept that if every thing goes as currently anticipated that President Biden will be my President. I may not agree with his views or support what he does, but as an American, I love my country, I love my FREEDOM, I support my SOLDIERS & LAW ENFORCEMENT and I will always have respect for any sitting President. I will not sit by idle and bite my tongue while injustice is going on.
I am not trying to force the narrative that election was rigged but the more you look into the election the more it appears that it has been tampered with majorly, foreign reports of hackers admitting to being responsible for hacking voter machines could potentially hold some weight, we won't find out for years to come if we ever do find out.
The thing people overlook is the constitution in the midst of all of this garbage that is being aired for the World to see. This is a major distraction to something major that is happening in the background. Media and Government are doing a great job of distracting everyone, I feel like I am watching a Hollywood Movie Production whenever I watch the news or the House of Representatives or congress on C-SPAN.
Am I being too critical of the situation? or am I on target? What is your opinion and where are you from?

From Smart Phone To Smart Mask, Razer's Innovation Leading The Way!
Overview
With the ongoing Covid-19 virus people every where are adapting to making Mask a part of daily life as our ancestors last did during the Spanish Flu Pandemic. It comes as no surprise that we would have plenty of technology companies start dissecting these Mask and giving them a much needed upgrade to bring them up to Technology standards.
While they may be an inconvenience for many in the World a simple Mash could help stop the spread of Covid-19 and potentially save thousands of lives as well as taking away some of the overwhelming work load that health care workers are facing on the frontlines of the Pandemic battle that most News Media Companies in the United States are too wrapped in the political drama to report about.
The media has a responsibility to not down play the seriousness of Covid-19 Pandemic for political agenda. Plenty of American whom already had doubts about the virus see the once Covid-19 Occupied Media focusing on purely Civil Unrest and this adds to the delusion that Covid-19 is not dangerous. The fact are that for a lot of people in the World Covid-19 is no worse than the common cold or flu.
My Ex-Wife's Mother had Covid-19 towards the end of November 2020 and she said, "it's no worse than the common cold", while my Mother just texted me the other day that she has tested positive for Covid-19. My Mother whom has recently just completed all of her rounds of radiation for cancer so far has said yesterday January 12, 2021 "I don't feel good, but I don't feel terrible".
Razers' New Smart Mask
Fully equipped with a ventilation system, voice amplification as well as some pretty awesome LED lighting. The see through cover allows for you to still exhibit facial expressions and the ventilation systems allows for you to breathe comfortably. The lighting feature is not only cool but it can help illuminate you in the dark while walking along side of the road.
They also come with these nice charging boxes that use a UV light till kill any germs on the device, all while charging. You can't beat a self cleaning N95 respirat0r mask, I wonder if they are good for chemical warfare? That would be a major step up, maybe in the future add an optional LCD upgrade so you can appear to smiling 24/7 I'm just kidding, but seriously this technology isn't far from that.
I have basically summed every thing up in one paragraph as their just isn't a whole lot anyone car really say about a mask, I just wanted to share some new technology innovation. You can read more from RAZERS' website here https://www.razer.com/eu-en/concepts/razer-project-hazel
I look forward to see if Apple or Samsung tries to make a new Face Mask Device using some of the World's latest Technology in order to appeal to a new market, time will tell, Thank you for ready, God Bless You and Stay Healthy!

World News With
**Elon Musk bumped to 2nd Richest Person in The World**
While this morning Elon Musk was the Richest Man in the World his fortune fell by nearly 8% along with most investment markets in the World. Tesla's Billionaire Elon Musk's fortune fell by $14,000,000,000.00 USD today making him the 2nd wealthiest person in the world.
While we all know how fidgety the Stock Market can be, Elon Musk will most likely re claim the title on Tuesday January 12, 2021. Musk is still worth $176,200,000,000.00 USD $176.2 Billion USD Jeff Bezos the Founder of Amazon took the Worlds Wealthiest Title with just $182.1 Billion, just $6 Billion more than Musk.
While Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos battle for the Title of The Richest Person in the World I can't help but to wonder if either one of them even have the time to care about being awarded the title?
**Beny Steinmetz: Mining Tycoon in Swiss Trial over Guinea Deal**
French-Israeli Billionaire Beny Steinmetz in court in Switzerland over corruption allegations that allege Steinmetz's company BSGR paid multi-million dollar bribes in order to obtain it's mining exploration permits in southern Guinea back in 2008
Steinmetz traveled from Israeli to Switzerland in order to attend the two week trial, if convicted Steinmetz could face up to 10 years in prison. Steinmetz is in Switzerland courts facing 10 years after just being convicted of money laundering charges in Romania.
Steinmetz is being represented by Marc Bonnant whom said, "we will plead his innocence". Steinmetz secured the mining rights in exchange for an investment of $160 Million, he then sold half the rights to a mining company, Vale, just a year and a half later for a 'Jackpot' deal of $2.5 Billion.
It is alleged that Steinmetz's company used the assistance of Guinea's ex-president's wife in order to deliver the bribes. Guinea's government stripped the mining rights from BSGR citing the evidence of corruption which the company still denies.
**1,075 Years in Prison for Sex Crimes**
Turkish court sentences Adnan Oktar whom was detained in 2018 along with more than 200 suspects in his group. Oktar will serve 1,075 years in prison for sex crimes, known as life in prison in the United States. Oktar preached Creationism and Conservative values while half dressed women danced around him to music in a tv studio.
64 year-old Adnan Oktar was arrested by Istanbul Police in 2018 along with more than 200 other suspects as part of a crackdown on his group by a Financial Crimes Unit. Oktar was sentence to 1,075 years for crimes including sexual assault, sexual abuse of minors, fraud and attempted political and military espionage.
Turkish court also sentenced Tarkan Yavas to 211 years and Oktar Babuna to 186 years, the two executives of Oktar's organization. Anadolu, a New Agency reported that Oktar was additionally found guilty of aiding an US-based Muslim preacher Fethullah Gulen.
Turkey blames Gulen for staging a failed coup attempt in 2016, Oktar denies any ties to Gulen and claimed that the allegation he led a sex cult an "urban myth". Oktar is not new to being in the public spot light for crimes of the sexual nature. In the 1990's Oktar was involved in multiple sex scandals.
Oktar's online television channel A9 started airing back in 2011, drawing denunciation from Turkey's religious leaders. A9 was often fined by Turkey's media watchdog RTUK. A9 was seized by the state and shut down in the wake of the police crackdown on Oktar's group.
Turkish authorities reportedly demolished Oktar's villa that he used for his TV studio on the Asian side of Istanbul and they confiscated all of his property in 2018. Oktar wrote a book called "The Atlas of Creation", a 770 page book that rejects the Darwinian theory of evolution under the alias Harun Yahya.
**6 Gorilla Rangers Dead, Several Wounded**
In the remote region of Nyamitwitwi in the middle of Virunga National Park a group of armed man killed at least six and wounded several others in an ambush in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo's Virunga National Park, a sanctuary for endangered Mountain Gorillas.
Virunga National Park sit on the forest-covered volcanoes of central Africa and houses over half the global population of Mountain Gorillas, Africa's oldest National Park and largest Rainforest reserve, covering just over 3,000 sq miles.
Over 200 Rangers of lost their lives in the past, the deadliest attack being in April of 2012 that killed 12 Rangers. The area is surrounded by dozens of armed groups that operate in eastern Congo. Many of which are the remnants of militias from civil wars that resulted in millions of deaths from conflict, hunger and disease.
**United Stated Capitol Riot Arrest Made**
Jacob Anthony Chansley A.K.A. Jake Angeli, is in custody on charges of violent entry and disorderly conduct. Chansley refers to himself as the QAnon Shaman told a reporter that claims of Antifa are false that himself and other Patriots were solely to blame for what occurred on Wednesday January 6, 2021 While their is still wide spread evidence of Antifa arriving in buses just as they did during BLM protest over the summer of 2020.
While Chansley isn't they only first person to be arrested, he won't be the last person either. I personally want to state that I am against worthless violence, I do believe that some situations call for it, just not this situation. To be honest, elected officials used this episode of American Stupidity in order to trample all over the constitution. The sad part is no one even cares about it. They are all stuck right where the Media wants them.
Adam Johnson of Florida, a true American Patriot is being held for theft of government property and violent entry as well. Johnson can be seen below carrying House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's Lectern from the House of Representatives Chamber with a smile on his face as he waves to the camera. This man doesn't appear to be a Trump supporter or a radical. This man seems to be a guy thought to himself, hey, that would like nice in my living room.
Did the Government recover the lectern? If not, I wonder how long before it is listed on Ebay and how much it'll net? Chansley and Johnson are amongst more than a dozen people whom have been arrested following the raid of the Capital.
**West Virginia Lawmaker Derrick Evans** was also arrested after allegedly posting a video of himself outside the Capitol building and than filmed himself walking inside. Evans ' was arrested on Friday and accused of violent entry and disorderly conduct on Capitol Grounds.
Amongst those arrested was also a Man from Alabama whom allegedly had 11 Molotov Cocktails, the man was arrested near the civil unrest. We can expect to see further arrest to come within the near future as the US Attorney General has vowed to hunt down every last violent protester and prosecute them or should I say silence them.
Politics
President Donald J. Trump
Yet another day where News Media focuses on the Failed Impeachment efforts of Nancy Pelosi whom is so desperately attempting to Impeach President Donald J. Trump from office during his last 8 days as President. Nancy Pelosi would love for the American people to believe that this is all because of what happened on that dreadful Wednesday January 6, 2021.
While the incident that occurred was very tragic in the aspect that 5 people lost their lives that day and amongst them, one was a Police Officer, these occurrences were not the result of President Donald J. Trump asking the crowd to do any harm to anyone. President Trump did not encourage violence, President Trump did imply he would continue the fight against corrupt political figures such as Nancy Pelosi.
Some individuals amongst the Trump Supporters had ill intent and acted upon it. Those individual shouldn't be allowed to label an entire group as a whole. The constitution of the United States protected freedom of speech, while we don't have to agree with the protesters, they have a right to be heard and not labeled by the actions of the few by the news media using their political agenda in order to drive their narrative that hate the President.
Nancy Pelosi just wants to ensure that President Trump will be unable to run for re-election in the 2024 Presidential Election. At this point in time anything from Marshall Law to a full blown US-Civil-War is possible. When a country is divided amongst itself, it is bound to end in bloodshed unless both sides can find common ground.
Crypto
Bitcoins price has went from an All Time High of $41,986.37 on January 8, 2021 at 10:00 a.m. dropping down to a low of $31,386.17 back up to $35,454.02 That is nearly a 25% drop at $10,600.20 bouncing back just $4,068.15 within 14 hours. Speculators have been buzzing all day long about the root underlying causes of the so-called sudden drop, many say that this is a healthy price-correction that will ultimately reaffirm the $30K support and we could see some major price increases in the near future.
Currently making a recovery BCH was at $654.00 earlier this week before falling back down to $410.00 for a total loss of $234.00 with a recovery of $84.00 putting BCH at $494.00 at this moment. Bitcoin Cash being a hard fork of Bitcoin itself seem to always follow in the footsteps of it's predecessor.
XRP is up to .3052 working its way towards .31 as people speculate that XRP could see a major run in the near future despite all of the XRP bans that have been taking place due to the sec law suit, which most are hopefully that we will receive clarity that will send the market booming. I will most likely be transferring my small amount of XRP some where to earn interest while this whole thing works itself out.

Bitcoin Back to $38K Is A Bigger Correction Coming?
Overview
Bitcoin has been doing such a great job lately at keeping up with the bull run. We are now experiencing major resistance at the 42K range that keeps knocking the price of Bitcoin back around $37K. Some are speculating that a major correction is in store for Bitcoin.
I can not argue against the major correction but I can argue as to when it will occur. I have been saying for awhile now that when we hit $42K we will either take off like a rocket past $50K or we will be headed back down into the upper $20K range. To be more specific I was eye balling the $27K range.
Even if that correction happens like I am thinking it will be short lived as plenty of companies will take full advantage of the price drop to load up on even more Bitcoin at a discounted rate. The Bitcoin chart right now looks as if though we may already be headed down in price towards the price correction zone.
I know Bitcoin hasn't breached the $42K zone but it was really close at one point.
As you can see above, today we have already an 8% loss for a low of $37,850.73 USD If I was to update my previous low price correction I would currently put the possible low at around 29K to 32K. This is just speculation, although it is more than possible for the price to keep correcting until tomorrow morning as investors head into the office and take full advantage of this buying dip.
Above we see the All Time Data from Bitcoin, and a lot of speculators are still focused on how the market acted back in 2017 a year after the Bitcoin halving. The major catch back then was Government Regulations that scared off financial investors. This time around we are seeing a whole new ball game in the Bitcoin Market.
We have billions flowing into Bitcoin from top financial investors in the United States alone, not counting the World as a whole. The United States Government is mainly to blame for the mass adoption of Bitcoin within the United States with the increasing deficit.
President Biden is set to take office on January 20, 2021 at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time. President Biden has a bill he is working hard on. A $3,000,000,000.00 $3 Trillion Dollar package to rebuild infrastructure. Now the thing is, this may sound really stupid but President Biden has a solid plan.
The plan will employee thousands of Americans and add Trillions into the economy in the United states. I would estimate the Crypto Market to see a $6 Trillion gain in total. When Governments start printing money the wealthy look for a safe haven against the undeniable inflation rates this causes.
President Biden isn't stopping with his $3 Trillion Bill. President Biden during the Georgia Senate run-offs promised Americans that if they voted Democrat Senators into office as soon as he takes office he would give Americans a $2,000.00 Stimulus Check.
President Biden seems determined to follow in the foot steps of the Obama Administration that used several Stimulus packages to stimulate the United States economy. The thing is, the USA wasn't too bad off during the Obama Era. We are now in a whole new situation with Crypto playing a major role. The worse the Pandemic gets, the more Governments print and the more political drama we see. The more money we see pouring into Crypto.
Bitcoin being at the top adding a trickle down effect. The trickle down effect may not be evident when Governments give Billions to already Billionaire Corporations hoping they will spread the wealth, Bitcoin is the main attraction. The gateway into the World of Crypto.
People have grown to trust Bitcoin more so than the USD. Bitcoin continues to make history and it was Bitcoin that paved the way for this revolutionary technology to come alive. We owe a major debt of gratitude to Bitcoin itself. Bitcoin will forever be the Internet Gold mine.
We are just entering a whole new era and we can see it unfolding in the beginning stages. A lot of investors have always talked about the necessity to diversify within Traditional investments areas. The same rule should always be applied as well as "Don't put all your eggs in one basket"
Disclaimer: I am not a financial advisor, I have done a massive amount of research in the World Of Crypto, enough so that I should have my Doctorate in Crypto...just kidding but seriously, I research and research 7 days a week. Even though I research so much I still know nothing when it comes to predicting the Markets. No one knows for a fact how this new market will continue to grow with so many issues that could affect the growth and adoption of Crypto.
My Final Thoughts
While I wasn't a Biden supporter, I honestly support the way he is inflating the USD. The more money he prints over the next 4 years the more Crypto will grow by Massive amounts. I could see Bitcoin being at $300K by the end of 2021. That is my high side of speculation. Now on a realistic note, I can see Bitcoin being around $90K to $120K
I know that is a wide estimated. I feel like with all the publicity a 300% gain is going to happen at a bare minimum over 2021. Now we all now how these bull runs can turn dangerous or even rocket towards the moon. Depending upon the outcome of the new appointed officials taking office in just 10 days will determine the higher end of my estimate.
We should ideally see even more companies jump into the Bitcoin Market and as many investors start to diversify we will see more money flood into newer projects as well as the ones that we have all been eyeing for so long. HOT being a major blockchain project that I have been watching for a years now is continuing it's battle to hit just 1 penny .01 USD Currently at .001 to .0009 and growing.
The data pouring in is being studied and analyzed by some of the very best investors in the World and the majority consensus is that Bitcoin will top $100K this year alone. While some speculate we will be at a much lower price by the end of the year than $100K.
A growing amount of people are saying $300K upwards of $1 Million. I don't see $1 million this year or next year. I see that price within 5 years, I see $10 Million within the next decade. We all know what is good for Bitcoin is good for the rest of the Market... So go Bitcoin GO!
Thank you for reading, God Bless You and Stay Healthy!

Tension Between Iran & USA Heats Up!
Tension builds between Iran and USA Politics as Biden pledged in 2020 to bring Iran back into the Nuclear deal after President Trump walked away from deal in 2018 and imposed sanctions on Iran. Tehran has already stated that they began enriching uranium at 20% purity once the deal expired.
January 4, 2020 President Trump order an Drone strike killing Iran's top commander in order to detour an attack Iran was planning against America. Iran responded by sending dozens of missiles at U.S. Bases overseas wounding dozens of Soldiers but not reportedly killing any.
Iran's Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei said he is no rush to rejoin the nuclear agreement that Biden Pledged to make happen, stating that the sanctions against Tehran have to be lifted whether or not the US joins the Pact. Iran's Supreme Leader also like so many Americans doesn't trust the Corona Virus Vaccinations. Unlike Americans they Stole this nice chemical ship from South Korea.
The actions of Iran forced Trump to order the Pentagon to reverse the order for the USS Nimitz Aircraft Carrier to return home. Trump also had B52 Bombers flown over the nation as a settle gesture they should calm down. This mess awaits President Biden in just 12 more days!
**Nancy Pelosi**
Pelosi is still working hard on her 3rd attempt to impeach President Trump from the White House as he only has 12 days left in his Presidency, leaving the American People to question why she is so desperate to remove Trump?. It really seems like he can't do anything now that he is in his final days.
**Hong Kong** **Police**
Police arrested 53 pro democracy advocates on January 6, 2021 under a national security law for trying to take power away from the states. This appears to be the future direction of the United States.
Corona Virus
The Covid-19 Virus has led to an increasing number of lockdowns again. The World is still in panic as Health Care workers scramble for resources and supplies to treat the severely ill patients suffering from Covid-19. Society is no stranger to pandemics of this nature.
I have known plenty of people that have had Covid-19 and they are all still healthy and alive. I hope and pray that everyone out there can stay healthy and safe during this pandemic. The World made it thru the Spanish Flu and we will once again make it through the Covid-19 Virus.
President Biden has campaigned on his plans to protect Americans from Covid-19 as other countries seem to be battling the same issue without resolve. Covid-19 has reportedly killed almost 2 Million People World-Wide as the numbers on the charts continue to spike.
These pictures in comparison with what we are seeing with modern times Covid-19 are similar in a lot of aspects. Companies ordered closed, social distancing as well as face mask regardless of what right you may feel you may have.
Wear a face covering
Wash your hands frequently
Stay in unless you have to be out
Potentially save a life!
I know mask can be an inconvenience but they are just a small part of what each of us can do to help save lives and stop the spread of covid-19. Mask alone won't stop this disease from running it's course on our World. Covid-19 is truly a tragedy that our Governments should have been better prepared for since The Russian Flu and the Spanish Flu.
Just keep in mind that we are the not the only ones to have been through a Pandemic of this like and survived and came back stronger. Humanities will to survive will ultimately defeat Covid-19. We all must do our parts just like our ancestors before us and as history always seems to repeat itself in a constant loop our future generations will have a new Pandemic that hopefully we will have prepared them for by than.

New all time highs as Bitcoin makes its way past $42K while many argue amongst social media channels that Biden will ultimately hurt Bitcoin and Crypto will suffer majorly under the Biden Admin, I for one haven't seen any evidence that Biden will even attempt to regulate Bitcoin.
Biden has appointed some pro-crypto ladies and gentlemen to offices that we need to really worry about. So, it seems we don't have much to worry about until we do in that aspect. I can't see the United States putting itself behind the entire world when the economy impact is way too dramatic.
**XRP**
Still holding above .30 USD as plenty speculate that XRP is going to make a run for it's all time high despite current regulations. The deal between Saudi Arabia and XRP is circulating around twitter like it isn't old news that Ripple has been working with Saudi Arabia for some time now.
**XLM**
Down about 20% but by far still ahead of last weeks numbers. XLM is holding just above .30 USD as well. Seems XRP broke away from it's historical price correlation with XRP. XLM & XRP are driving innovation in the Banking/Financial Sectors and they both will continue to shine.
**Ethereum**
Still lurking below it's all time high with just days from the 2 year anniversary of it's all time high as Billions flood towards Ethereum we should see it really pick up within the next week or quickly retreat after setting it's newest All Time High.
**BCH**
While still battling the $400 range fighting to stay above water BCH is making head weight as it heads up hill! BCH the Fork of Bitcoin is expected to follow in it's predecessors foot steps as it climbs to new all time highs with the entire crypto market expecting to have enormous gains.
My Final Thoughts
Everything combined in today's time society has been through a lot in just the past 365 days. We have seen events unfold most of us live on television from the safety our own homes but a lot have been on the frontlines and are continuing to fight. Health Care workers that are being overwhelmed in populated areas and civil un rest across the World.
The events that unfolded just days ago in The United States as the House & Senate convened to count the State's Electoral College Votes was mild in manner compared to the events that unfolded over the summer time "Murder of George Floyd" that sparked protest Country-Wide in the United States as well as sparked rage amongst the World audience that watched everything unfold.
Black Lives Matters took to the streets to protest yet another instance of Police Brutality in The United States and they were met by Antifa, a United States Domestic Terrorist Group that sparked rioting in every city through the country, except those with citizens that bare arms openly. To add to this chaos a lot of Americans took advantage of situation to go out looting stores and setting fires that led to killing of Police Offices in various states as well as ordinary business owners trying to protect their business.
While I agree with the right of anyone to have freedom of speech I want to shed some light on the statistics of Police Brutality in The United States. While most of the World thinks that only Black Lives are afflicted by Police Brutality, this is in fact completely wrong.
Mexican Americans are subject to Police Brutality at a higher rate and in many cases the language barrier can be to blame more so than ethnicity. African Americans are not the target of racist law enforcement officers. Fact is that most Americans are scared to speak out about racial injustice in fear of being labeled Racist for speaking facts.
American has a low class, poor standard. I can honestly tell you that being poor is not specific to any one race of people in this country nor is it in any other country that I am currently aware of. The areas where poor people live at have a higher ratio of Police Brutality which involves all races.
The difference between African Americans and the rest of the other races in the United States is African American's said No More! I applaud the BLM on that basis. Americans have became so afraid to be labeled racist by the majority that they have developed the "Double-Racism-Standard-Syndrome.
Most Americans aren't racist while a lot of Americans are. Now when I say Americans I am not just saying white people, I am talking about Americans. White, Black, Brown, Orange, Yellow, Blue or Green. No matter what race you are you will have a small percentage of racist individuals that should in no way represent these groups as a whole.
Americans get mad at BLM and say Black Live's aren't the only Live's that matter. While true, African Americans are the only group of people that came together and formed a group. Why the hell would they name it All Lives Matter? Would it be racist if I had a legitimate cause and started a group called "White Lives Matter?"
I believe in the importance of racial heritage and the rights of individuals to gather amongst themselves or better phrased people of their own race whether or not you are any color known to man. I find nothing racist about this. Once you start attacking other races and giving hate speeches that becomes another ball park.
"The Black Lives Matter Movement" will forever inspire Americans of every race to stand up against injustice. This movement brought 90% of the country together during a pandemic to stand against any Police Brutality. This incident also showed the Government that people are done with the excuses and cover ups.
The point I am getting at is America isn't any better than any other county in the World. We have a lot filth in the wash and not even 4% of it has been hung up to air out in the wind. Everything is not always as it may seem to be. We may be able to see the Civil unrest die off in 2021 but given 2020 with the start of 2021 anything is liable to happen in America.
Society has a responsibility to hold elected officials responsible and that should be a God given right just as the right to breathe. Together we can all change the future for the better if we all pitch in.
Thanks for reading, God Bless You and Stay Healthy!
Thursday January 7, 2021 The World & Crypto #2
Highlights
The House was over-run by a group of around 30 people, 1 lady was shot and later died while receiving treatment for a C-Span reported gun shot wound to the chest. While the senate took off in high gear at the start of the day, the Senate was forced into recess and later convened at 8:00 P.M. Eastern Time yesterday January 6, 2021.
The outcome of The 2021 Join Session came in the early hours this morning January 7, 2021. Americans across the World woke up to the news that everyone has been awaiting since the November 2020 Elections ended. Now with The Joint Session having counted and dully certified the Electoral Votes and listened to the objections against certain states Electoral College Votes America can move forward.
The world may not have seen the last of President Trump as he can still run for President in 2024, however it would take a lot mishaps by the Biden Presidency for Trump to have another chance in the office. Lawmakers and certain Companies are urging VP Pence to enact the 25th amendment against Trump which would impeach him from office for the remainder of his 13 days and VP Pence would become President Pence.
The odds of that happening are not extremely low, but Pence has stood at Trumps side these last 4 years and will most likely continue to do so. The World is surprised that Trump hasn't issued any martial-law orders claiming that the presidency is under attack by insurgency of Democrats, we do still have 13 days until President Biden take reins.
XLM Takes The Spotlight
XLM is almost at .34 USD right now. Stellar has been seeing some major pumping after the Press Release on Monday about Ukraine adopting Stellar Network for its very own CBDC Central Bank Digital Currency. Stellar is the only other Blockchain Project onboarding Banks and Financial Institutions than XRP Ripple whom is currently facing some legal issues that looking hopeful to clear sooner than latter with Biden Admin.. taking office on January 20, 2021 at 12:00 P.M. Eastern Time.
Hopefully President Biden and his staff as well as appointed officials will correct this issue or at the very least see to it that it gets resolved in a timely manner unlike Stimulus Packages in the past.
More Stimulus expected after Biden takes control!
President Biden in Georgia, USA on January 4, 2021 Promised Americans that if they voted both Democrats into office that Democrats would all vote for $2000.00 Stimulus Checks would leave the vote at tie leaving VP Kamala Harris as the tie breaker.
The good news in unclear whether the Democrats will follow through with the promises made before President Biden takes office, if they do it'll give money to those including myself that really need it during tough financial times.
Since my approach is non-biased News I must include the major downside for the American People that can't see past the money so many desperately need. The USD will be inflated even further than before over the next 4 years as Democrats go on a shopping spree ultimately spending money however they see fit as a whole.
The implications of the above statement alone will be more than enough for anyone that wants to preserve and grow wealth to flood the Crypto market even more than we have seen in 2020. Bitcoin is currently about to cross the $40K USD mark and it has only begun. The USD will take major dive in the weeks and months to come ultimately it will be replaced with a digital currency that can be used World-Wide seamlessly.
The question every investor is itching for the answer to is. What luck Blockchain will have the honors of being deemed by the World of the Worlds Currency standard? Speculators believe XRP will take over this role. I say we can't necessarily rule out Stellar XLM as they are in the same fight. Everyone else is looking towards a Stable Coin as the alternative like Teether USDC USDT.
Coinbase Servers Are Unable To Maintain!
https://www.coinbase.com/join/rutkow_6t
I am not sure about the World's most popular however Coinbase's Servers would argue that Coinbase is more popular than the capacity they can currently provide. Not to fear I'm positive that Coinbase is working Diligently to FIX this issue before all of it's clients get together and file a Class-Action-Lawsuit against the company as a lot of people did against the Popular Internet Banking App Chime https://chime.com/r/justinrutkowski
XRP Going Higher Despite The SEC
Crypto Markets are on the move as Bitcoin reaches closer to passing $40K and onward towards the moon. XRP considering it's very own legal actions with the SEC suing Ripple claiming they sold XRP an alleged unregistered security illegally. XRP is up to .35 coming back from a low of just .17 USD
XRP is proving to be worth more than a lot of investors whom jumped ship already had thought. I know that a massive amount of people panicked not wanting to suffer further losses after XRP took a dive, but even more stayed on board and doubled down on XRP holdings.
Ethereum
Ethereum is fighting it's way up into the $1,300.00 range right now. Once we break $1,300.00 I look for the All Time High to be broken within hours. Ethereum 2.0 Launch along with the literally thousands of ERC-20 tokens have contributed a lot to the success of Ethereum.
Flare Network Update!
Everything is going according to plan and still expected to distribute the Spark Tokens in Q1 or Q2 of 2021. Bitrue has already launched an IOU SPARK for trading on it's Platform only and is currently trading at 0.1377646862787718 USD for non USA and Singapore residents.
Disclaimer: Bitrue Spark Token Trading is an IOU. They do not have the Spark Tokens, if you buy Spark Tokens on Bitrue they can only be used on Bitrue until which point in time Flare Network releases the Airdropped Tokens. The 15% that is in Q1 or Q2 of 2021. You will be able to sell of on Bitrue, but if you are taking a major risk that anything could happen during prelaunch which could render you holding a worthless Token but hey, that is all Crypto.
Blockchain Helping Vaccination Efforts
**The Mediterranean Hospital of Cyprus has vaccinated 100 doctors and nurses against COVID-19, using a blockchain-based mobile app to certify the immunizations.** **Vechain Blockchain** https://www.coindesk.com/coronavirus-vaccines-certified-with-vechains-blockchain-tech-in-cyprus
Bitcoin News
While writing Edition # 2 Bitcoin has passed the $40K Mark an hit $40,425.00 before dropping to $37k and is rebounding past $38k currently. We are in uncharted territories right now and no can say for certain which direction the price of Bitcoin will continue in the future. A lot have speculated on the upper $20k range as a buying dip, only time will tell.
My Final Thoughts
The World we all live in today is truly amazing. The Technology that we are blessed with. The ability to be alive during such trying times of uncertainty and to be able to witness New technology after new technology being created and ever evolving into what is constantly becoming obsolete due to society's desire to constantly improve upon previous applications.
Now, while Satoshi Nakamoto's real identity may be up for debate amongst the groups whom believe different individual to be the real Satoshi. (reminds me of the real slim shady, google it) One thing is for sure though, we owe Satoshi Nakamoto a gratitude of thanks for the inspiration that he and his team gave the World by programing Bitcoin.
I think the overall progress of Bitcoin and Crypto in general has gone beyond they had ever expected as well as grown into something the envisioned Bitcoin abstaining from. Either way society is on the Brink of the Next Best Thing since Sliced Bread.
Thank You All For Reading, God Bless You and Stay Healthy!
Congress Upholds Presidential-Elect Joe Biden as President Joe Biden
January 7, 2021
Congress certifies Electoral Colleges making Joe Biden the winner of The Presidential Election 2020. Biden will be the President of The United States of America from January 20, 2021 at 12:00 p.m. Eastern Time. While current President Trump will still more than likely argue a stolen/rigged election ultimately left President-Elect Joe Biden the 46st President of the United States of America.
Those whom call themselves Patriots of America and whom are Trump Supporters should accept defeat and use their anger towards driving a new narrative into the Public's Narrow Eye. I recall the last 4 years the most shocking treatment of an Elected President in History by the major Media Companies as well as elected officials and anti-Trump supporters.
To all of those whom complained about that kind of treatment I urge you to lead by example, be an example of what you have been against the last 4 years.
President Joe Biden said, "Enough is enough, is enough!" I couldn't agree any more with that statement. The United States of America has been in turmoil for long enough. The Covid-19 Virus that originated in China, the tragedy George Floyd Police Brutality Killing was a major injustice. The shooting of Briana Taylor which was justified by Police.
The time to focus on America stand United for The American People starts January 20, 2021 at 12:00 P.M. Eastern Time when President Joe Biden takes his place in History at 46st President of The United States.
I want to note some Positive things that Americans have to benefit from as well as the rest of the World just from President Biden that President Trump would never deliver. I want to start out with a joke first.
A wise man once said, " I'm glad Nasa hasn't found life on other planets yet, because the Democrats would want to send them money too"
I'm sorry if that offends you but it is so true that it is funny in deed. So, without further wait let's get into the positive outcomes with President Biden.
Stimulus Checks For Americans!
Yay, on January 5, 2021 President Joe Biden SEEN HERE IN GEORGIA, USA Biden promises the American People $2,000.00 Stimulus Checks if the Democrats win senate race in Georgia. The consensus is $2,000.00 Stimulus Checks coming after January 20, 2021 That is such a needed outcome for Americans after a more than disappointing Stimulus check of $600.00 under President Trump's Presidency after Trump pledged $2,000.00 or no deal... https://www.businessinsider.com/biden-georgia-senate-runoff-2000-stimulus-checks-immediately-2021-1
Crypto Friendly
The Biden Administration is the most Crypto Friendly in History, with the current malicious intent brought on by a resigning member of the SEC against Ripple XRP that sent XRP back down from highs it hadn't seen and a couple years. President Biden and his team hasn't campaigned on the basis of being Crypto friendly, but I would say they are appointing people in certain sectors that ideally should open restrictive barriers in the United States and hopefully coming January 20, 2021 squash the mess with Ripple although if you look at the charts Ripple doesn't need it.
Foreign Policy
We should see the Tariffs War with China disappear. Tax incentivizes for companies to move manufacturing jobs back to United States will disappear. Biden family has strong ties with Russia. President Joe Biden himself being an VP under the Obama Admin.. knows the role better than most that come into Presidential Powers. He ideally should already have strong ties in Foreign Countries.
Summary
President Joe Biden will take office on January 20, 2021 at 12:00 P.M. Eastern Time.
My Final Thoughts
I for one wanted to see congress uphold the objections towards the states and that used the courts to change legislative code. That is in fact unconstitutional and should not have been allowed to take place even with Covid-19 being an excuse. The Election laws were not changed during the Spanish Flu Pandemic.
They should have not been altered now for the China Covid-19-20-21 Virus. Congress could have not counted the Electoral Votes from those states ultimately rendering the vote to Congress. Congress could of than Elected Joe Biden, this would have affirmed to the people that we have to abide by not only the will of the majority but also abide by the once sacred doctrine "The Worthless Constitution Of The United States Of America"
I honestly loved the fact that President Trump was nothing more than a self made Millionaire before he became President Trump. The symbolic nature of his presidency should ring louder than the publicity of his Presidency. President Trump has proven to the American People that if you have Millions of Dollars to throw around you could become President of The United States even if you have zero political experience.
I accept President Joe Biden as my 46st President. I did not vote for President Biden and here is a shocker for you, I also didn't vote for Trump in 2016 nor did I vote Trump 2020. I am heavily opinionated and I will not vote for a President of The United States until I write my own name on the Ballot. That will be my first Political Vote.
Thank You for reading, God Bless You, Stay Healthy!
Congratulations President Biden & VP Kamala Harris
Wednesday January 6, 2021 The World & Crypto #1
**Wednesday January 6, 2021 12:39 p.m. Eastern Time**
Mission Statement
Welcome to the 1st Edition of my News Letter. The main focus of my mission is to provide reliable non biased News in order to allow you to make an informed opinion about what you read. I will cover a variety of subjects from Politics, Crypto to just interesting or funny trending news. I will also cover stories that feel need more spot light.
Politics USA
**Democrats VS Republicans** January 5, 2021 in Georgia USA the race for senate took place. The race held more significance than meets the eye. This race will ultimately decide which political party shall rule the senate. As the race intensified yesterday we seen President-Elect-Biden rallying support for the Democratic Party.
President Donald J. Trump was in Georgia as well rallying support for Republicans in hopes that a majority Republican Senate would be enough to revoke the electoral colleges from the states being contested. President Trump's stance has been very clear since the Election day 2020.
He won by a land-slide on Election day. The days following with massive reports of election fraud ultimately saw Trump tank in numbers crowning Biden President-Elect-Biden. The major News sources despite having video evidence and statements from member's of both political parties still denies the validity of voter fraud.
President Trump was criticized by major News Media yesterday, not for his claims of voter fraud but for being present and rallying the support of the Republican Party to elect his preferred candidate. As of now Media Sources are projecting that Warnock DEM and Ossoff REP.
**Congress To Count Electoral Collee Votes**
Today starting at 1:00 p.m. Eastern Time Congress will be in session to count the Electoral College Votes. This is a crucial moment in the history of America. You would really have to dive deep into the constitution and laws along with case law to fully understand this matter in depth.
I done a lot of research in this matter. The major News Sources want you to believe that this process today has no significance and that their is no way possible that the electoral colleges from questionable states will be rejected. Now the facts are that if the evidence presented in today's session is overwhelming ultimately Congress will make the final decision on whether or not we will use the Electoral Votes.
Those are facts, we can not argue facts. Unlike others whom claim this is not true or that it is true and expect you to take their word for it. I am different, I want to throw some facts at you. Do you Historians recall President John Quincy Adams?
BOMB SHELL! Yes I know, but wait... You can view the published article from WhiteHouse.gov At the time they citied the incident as "bare faced corruption" which is what we are seeing today. I want to be non-biased and present the facts. https://history.house.gov/Historical-Highlights/1800-1850/The-House-of-Representatives-elected-John-Quincy-Adams-as-President/
I call this "The Biggest Moment In The United States History" This moment in History will ultimately determine the integrity and faith of The United States of America. The argument is not whether or not Biden or Trump should become President.
This holds more significance than most people are even beginning to comprehend as they hopefully watch C-Span through the Website so they are not censored from hearing the facts. The facts are that if they allow this unconstitutional change of laws, they ultimately open the door for courts to change the constitution and laws as judges see fit. Let that sink in...
2024 Presidential Election Implications
If they ultimately rule in favor of the due process of the constitution and Trump becomes President he will have been voted in by congress and not been voted in legally by Voters, this would allow technically speaking allow him to run again in 2024 for re-election since the consensus is he lost the Electoral Colleges and if they rule that the courts have no authority to over rule due process and change The Legislative Branches role in Voting Guidelines.
**Senator Harris** whom some people refer to as VP-elect-Harris was sworn in as a Senator on January 4, 2021. New York downplays Harris's being sworn in by saying it was perfectly normal for this to happen.
**Alex Padilla** Governor Gavin Newsom announced that Alex Padilla will replace Kamala Harris once she is sworn into office as Vice President of the United States.
Our World In Crypto
**Stellar** Press release's send XLM on a pump after News comes out that Ukraine Government has chosen the Stellar Blockchain Network as it's Platform for build it's own Central Bank Digital Currency. Stellar XLM is up to .3011 USD at the time of this post. XLM & XRP are the visionary Crypto Currencies that seen the need to develop a Blockchain Network that would ultimately replace the traditional systems and I should say they are getting the job done at an increasing rate.
Stellar XLM currently is at about 50% of it's very own All Time High with an initial value of just 2 hundredths of a penny.
XRP
While the entire XRP community as well as the handful of other Crypto projects currently being sued by the SEC are anxiously awaiting either a settlement or a verdict to be rendered by the courts another investment firm has cut ties with XRP. Grayscale Investments has officially dropped XRP while maintaining the XRP Trust. XRP price by all indicators seems almost completely unmoved by this current situation.
The charts show what I want to call a wave that is flowing through the Market right now. Almost like a pump and dump AI is controlling the market, oh the conspiracies. Seriously though the charts are moving closely with others.
**Ethereum** is edging even closer to reaching it's very own All Time High of $1,310.3728 currently at $1,139 and has been project to beat the all time High on January 12, 2021 by @RyansAdams I say sooner, as in today or tomorrow. https://twitter.com/RyanSAdams
Update on the Congress and Senate
President Trump is urging all of his supporters to "Go Home and Go in Peace" President Trump was quick to tweet to all of his supporters to stay peaceful, Mean while everything has came to an halt as far as counting the Electoral Votes.
President-Elect-Biden has spoken earlier today against the protest and also affirming that the constitution has no meaning what so ever. The Capitol will go into lockdown at 6:00 p.m. Eastern Time so I would say it would resume as soon as they clear the building.
My Final Thoughts
The World today is massively misinformed by the mass news media which a great mishap brought on by Political leadership mainly Democrats whom own the majority of media companies and use communism means of suppressing the truth. They want everyone to believe that this is all about President Trumps sadistic behavior trying to over turn an legal election.
The facts are that courts should not have the power to make legislative decisions, we have Democrats advocating against the Constitution which is the only Doctrine that protects the Americans power over the Government. We have a due process which the courts in objected states violated beyond their authority.
The implications of allowing this to stand un-corrected will ultimately give more power to the courts than the people whom wrote the laws. This is a massive shift of Power that will end the idea of America being the land of the free.
Now on to the subject of crypto, Bitcoin made an all time high again of over 35K The markets are flooding with new investors and everything is looking great. Always be aware than when something looks too good to be true it most of the time is. I look to see a large drawback in the crypto market coming in the next couple of weeks.
I don't think that it will last very long at all. I think Crypto will pull back 10 times stronger. That is just my opinion and I am not a financial investor by I do invest and I do make decent returns.
Thank you for reading, God Bless you, Stay Healthy!
Blockfi, Etoro & Nexo Update, I am now a Proud...
Overview
Welcome back, this is part 2 of Nexo vs Blockfi vs Etoro. I deposited $100.00 into Etoro, $25.00 into Blockfi and I have maintained a balance of $50 with Nexo. What I have to say could save you a ton of time and net you far more in returns than the the 3 combined. https://read.cash/@Rutkowski/nexo-vs-blockfi-vs-etoro-who-will-win-0f358e00
I would recommend you read the first article I linked to above for even further context. When I started this test after doing plenty of research I was more than fond of Blockfi. Blockfi was looking to be the best option to earn Interest on crypto. Admittedly any interest is good interest. Why would you want to cheat yourself when you could earn more interest?
Blockfi
Blockfi actually performed in the manner I had originally expected it to perform. I expected Blockfi to out perform Nexo and Etoro. I expected a better return from Nexo than I did from Etoro considering Etoro is more of a trading platform vs Blockfi and Nexo. https://blockfi.com/?ref=8d2ce8dc
Now, I started off at Blockfi with $25.00 of BTC purchased on Oct 18, 2019 at .00217949 BTC to date I have earned $1.08 in interest from Blockfi which brings my current investment from $25.00 all the way up to $72.25
That is a $46.75 profit from an original investment of $25.00 The impressive return was seen by the asset itself versus the interest. I can't really complain about a $1.08 of interest earned off of an initial investment of $25.00
https://blockfi.com/?ref=8d2ce8dc
https://blockfi.com/?ref=8d2ce8dc
Nexo
Nexo seems really great by review in the Crypto Community. I wasn't impressed with the interest I earned. I had seen a good return on the investments in this account until XRP took a dive. I didn't deposit BTC in Nexo, just BCH, XRP and XLM. I put USDC in the account for a few weeks and it had a better return than the other 3 assets. I have maintained an $50.00 account value at all times with Nexo. https://nexo.io/?u=5de2eb5b121af9583f486dbb
https://nexo.io/?u=5de2eb5b121af9583f486dbb
https://nexo.io/?u=5de2eb5b121af9583f486dbb
https://nexo.io/?u=5de2eb5b121af9583f486dbb
As you can see above I have earned .48 with Nexo which is .60 less than with Blockfi. Like I have said I didn't honestly expect too much with Nexo. I didn't expect to see a major gain on my assets as I did with Blockfi considering I wasn't really holding Bitcoin on Nexo like I did with Blockfi.
Etoro
Etoro in my opinion is a pretty decent trading platform if you don't mind not being able to actually use a wallet feature. You can supposedly stake several Crypto's on Etoro automatically unless you opt-out of staking. I start my Etoro account off with $100.00 https://etoro.tw/37pURYT
I netted 13.81% ROI with Etoro. That was all due to the fact that I kept trading in and out of Bitcoin. The thing is I didn't monitor these accounts very much at all. I would have seen a major return on Etoro had I traded in and out of Bitcoin daily. Also I had some financial troubles and I had to pull out $89.54 in Bitcoin at $18K which killed a lot of the profit I would have seen.
Still even with the early withdrawal I still had a great return considering if I had that money sitting in a interest earning checking account for a couple months I would not have any seen a .14 cent return. I still haven't seen 1 TRX on the over 900 TRX that I have staked with Etoro.
I will be closing my Etoro position today and re-purchasing my TRX and staking it else where so I can actually see a return instead of a false promise.

I am a Proud Celsian now on Celsius Network!
Shortly after I had published the first article I received a comment asking how I felt about Celsius. At that point and time I hadn't really looked into Celsius, but I knew of the name. I recently opened my account with Celsius under a week ago using a promo code I found online. https://celsiusnetwork.app.link/1362466489
I signed up and deposited $25 in Bitcoin. If I hold that Bitcoin for another 27 days I will get a free $20 of bitcoin at the price 3 days ago .00074 BTC will be released to my wallet on Jan 21, 2021 I will release an updated article on Celsius at the point in time with all of the interest I have earned off of the initial investment plus the bonus.
Over all I am excited about Celsius. I have been watching the podcast and reading CEL and I honestly like what I see. I can't say for a fact they will always be this good but for now, I am a Celsian. I am expecting to earn a decent amount in interest provided the interest calculator is correct on the Celsius Wallet.
If you are new to Celsius and you want to sign up and get $40 dollars in Free Bitcoin I recommend using this Link Here Celsius Network along with using this Promo Code after sign up WELCOME20 the Promo code is case sensitive. Let me know if you use the promo code and if it is still working or not. https://celsiusnetwork.app.link/1362466489
My Final Thoughts
Speaking from my own research and my experience in the Stock Market I can say without reserve that Crypto is the best investment you can be in right now. You are wasting money if you leave it just sitting. I know the Crypto Realm has it's risk. However in the long-term investments category the Crypto World always seems to deliver astonishing returns on your Investments.
Just think about it for a second. Say you had invested $100.00 in Oct 2019 you would now have close to $300 for just 60 days... That is beyond impressive returns from Bitcoin. I am not a financial advisor and you shouldn't trust the opinions of anyone online including myself without doing your due diligence by researching what you read.
The Crypto Market is very unpredictable and if you can stomach dropping a couple grand into the Market and watching tank by 20% before rocketing up 40% plus than you should probably stick with that 1% interest rate if you are lucky from your local Fiat Trash excuse me I meant Fiat Bank.
Overall I netted a profit of $70.16 and that is on a low side of the estimate especially consider I made an early withdrawal. Feel free to find out for yourself. The numbers don't lie.
Thank you for reading, God Bless You and Stay Healthy.
Happy New Years! 2021 Here We Come!
Overview
As 2020 is within it's final hours we have a chance to stop and reflect on the past year's events. The good moments we have had with our families and friends to the tears we have cried in mourning and in heart break. Some of us have had life altering situations and major obstacles to over come. Some more severe than others, we should count our blessings and be thankful for what we do have.
I want to show some appreciation to all of those whom have followed me, liked my articles and whom have tipped me. I know even the smallest tips may not seem to be much, but in the bigger picture it really adds up. I have been out of work since Oct 2019 due to a back injury. I have had 2 back surgeries in 2020 alone with worsening consequences.
The insurance company is trying to force a settlement without paying for proper medical treatment and loss wages. Than top that off with the fact I haven't had a paycheck since Oct 2020 it has been a rather stressful year for myself. I make light of the situation by taking the time to think of the others in the world whom have it a whole lot worse than I do even in my current situation.
I know life could always be worse for anyone, I try to find the positive side of every negative angle. I have always wanted to focus more of my time online earning some cash while making interesting connections. I have been taking advantage of my situation in order to just that. I have learned so much over this last year from so many of you.
Overall I can't really complain about life itself. I am blessed with 4 wonderful children by the grace of God. I know that no matter what I will be taken care of as well as my children. We may struggle, we may go without but in the end everything will be fine again. The extra cash from platforms such as Read.cash and Publish0x has honestly been a God Send at times. Once again thanks for all of the support from everyone!
Nostradamus has predicted that 2021 would be basically the end of civilization. I know that he has been regarded through out history as being 70% accurate on his prophecies. He has implicated that we will see Zombies, Earthquakes, famine and an asteroid. We did all survive the Y2K and 2012. 2019 ended crazy, 2020 continued the craziness and hopefully 2021 brings back some normalcy to our lives... Sorry Nostradamus but after Covid-19 I think we need a break...
I can't say whether or not the World will end in 2021 I can say the World as we know it will change forever. I look for the Blockchain to more than dominate the world. After "The Law Suit of The Century" I look for XRP to sky rocket. Wells Fargo appears to be planning to use XRP to handle all of its transactions based upon a not so revealing patent paper Wells Fargo filed.
Bitcoin over the course of 2020 fast forwarded itself by 10 years with the acceptance rate of financial institutions pouring Billions of dollars into Bitcoin. It is now said that only 25% of all Bitcoin remains available to traders. Now over the course of 2021 we will see Bitcoin continue to skyrocket as even more companies looking to invest start pouring into Bitcoin and the surrounding markets.
We will finally get some long awaited clarity in the Crypto Industry from the SEC and hopefully legislatures will pass some Crypto friendly Bills in the United States that will further the progress of Crypto. The United States has one state already pass a law making it legal for insurance companies to invest in Bitcoin. The implications of that alone towards the United States Governments overall stance of Crypto is staggering.
I know we have heard a lot of downsides to Uncle Sam tracking personal wallets. I don't really see the Government honestly tracking holdings in this regard unless it is a substantial amount. i.e... Tom transfers 12 million in btc from Coinbase to a personal wallet and than those assets disappear from tax logs. The Government would want to know what Tom was up to.
I haven't found a service yet that didn't require KYC and tax information in order to exchange crypto into USD... I don't think that restriction will change until we see even more Bitcoin ATM's going up in 2021. I am working on getting some locally. I don't know that will pan out, but anything to further the progress is worth a shot.
As we move deeper into Bitcoin's rally we will see other markets become flooded with investors as well sending a wide range of coins shooting upwards of 40,000% or more in some cases. You should always keep in mind that the Crypto Market is very unpredictable.
LQD Liquidity.Network
Today alone LQD Liquidity.Network Token has jumped over 98% The Market Cap going from over $200K to over $2 Million in just under 24 hours. LQD has had an ATH Market Cap of just over $9 Million in the past, so sitting just shy of 25% of its historical all time high Market Cap.
Hot Holochain
Historically all time high Market Cap being just over 300 Million. Hot currently fighting to push past $150 Million Market Cap in order to rally a new all time high. Hot is currently close to a third of its all time high Market Cap. I think in the weeks ahead we are going to see some thing big.
KIN
The are still going up against the SEC. Now the kicker is they aren't going after the banking industry but they are pushing into the retail industry and user applications. KIN is very promising in the future provided the Ripple ruling is favorable we should expect the same round about out come for KIN as well.
KIN has went from just above $10 Million Market Cap this year to almost $100 Million Market Cap this year alone. Kind of odd that ripple takes a loss and KIN sees a gain while dealing with the same circumstances. Long-term XRP price will blow KIN price away.
DOGE Coin
Doge Coin Market Cap is just over $500K at the moment. Close to 50% of its all time high at $1.2 Billion. Doge is looking like it getting ready to make a run. Doge is highly utilized by a lot of people online for various reasons. I first bought Doge for advertising purposes.
Celsius CEL
CEL is the native Token of the Celsius wallet app. CEL's Market Cap has went up $1.3 Billion this year alone, setting the all time high Market Cap a little over $1.32 Billion. Celsius can be compared to Blockfi and Nexio https://celsiusnetwork.app.link/1362466489
My Final Thoughts
As we look through all of the Crypto Currencies on the Market we start to wavy patterns that are indicating prime buying opportunities for some and past sell points on others. I just wanted to share a few of coins I have been watching rather closely today.
I watch Bitcoin everyday regardless. I am kind of hoping for the perfect buying opportunity like we have seen in the past. I won't be disappointed if that opportunity never presents itself though it would be nice.
I hope everyone has a very nice night. Stay Safe, God Bless You and thanks for reading!
