where art thou Romeo... where art thou BitCoin.....scenes from Mandelbrot's dysfunctionality of markets...



this year and it’s seen fluctuations as high as 44% over some periods as short as five days. These types of fluctuations are rarely seen in other assets, like gold.

To demonstrate bitcoin’s volatility over the course of a day, WSJ’s Thomas Di Fonzo travelled around five New York City bitcoin ATMs, withdrawing $10 worth of the virtual currency at each stop. Bitcoin ATMs allow you to convert dollars into the virtual currency, but even during the time it takes to travel between ATMs, the exchange rate can change dramatically.

you folks will have to wander over to the WSJ or youtube to view these videos......



LOL.... It's like herding cats...... Cats don't want to be herded anywhere.......... hence their feline sensibilities!!!

it's December and things are getting interesting....
