Scoring according to potential: 5% for a definite action (positive or negative) — not many of those, 3%: probable, 1%: possible (changes in the probability of success or failure). Scoring for individual projects may be different from possible general effect on prices. Generallly 2% suggests cautious investors will react with buys or sells, while 5% suggests I think most investors would react either way.
Prices continued their downward trend despite an avalanche of news for crypto investors. Though bitcoinwas 13.57 % down on the month, on my count the market should have gone up b 76%. So much for fundamentals.
