bitcoin had another strong climb today after yesterdays indecision. While everyone is anticipating more dips before we gain an upward momentum, it's too hard to tell short term what's going on.
Please remember that I am not giving financial advice and this is just my opinion. What I do strongly advise is to get your market information from multiple sources to get a broader perspective on the markets, but ultimately you need to developer your own intuition as well, so that you can feel confident in your market position; If you are smart enough to read this, you are more than smart enough to develop that intuition... but it does take time for all of us. This blog is written for entertainment purposes only. I cannot predict the future; therefore this blog should be considered a work of imaginary fiction.

CNBC is extremely bullish on Bitcoin, or at least their guests as of late are. For the old school stock market investors, a 10% gain means breaking out the hookers and champagne, so when they see Bitcoin nearing it's bottom and potentially getting ready to 10x within the next year, they cannot contain their enthusiasm.
