Good morning everyone! As we head to the second holiday after Christmas, we can slowly start reading to catch up with the world that's spinning around us.
Ryan Walker has been helping people to make informed decisions about Bitcoin transaction fees and points out, that you can get away rather cheap, if your case is not urgent. Check out his fancy graph - and pay attention to the Coinbase e-mail "send BTC to e-mail" service.

Want 100 000 free Boozecoins? Of course you do, who doesn't? The creator of the coin, Bryce Distillery, is giving away 100K of them to anyone who asks, just for sharing their Indiegogo campaign on social media. All you have to do is share the campaign and ask for your coins. What are the coins worth? Absolutely nothing! But it's boozecoins - every respectable trader should have these in his Bitshares wallet. And who knows, maybe one day they'll be worth a fortune. Until then, you can HODL or tip your buddies with them.
Claim your Boozecoins here and while you're at it, check out their campaign.
Why does crypto correct so massively? Because everyone cannot win. The answer lies in a Google Trends chart, which shows, that more and more people actively search for "buying bitcoin with credit card". Looking at the graph the search has taken a rocket form in Nov-Dec as the masses pour in. Before we can continue our advance towards 50K, some money must be shifted from the retail to professional traders.

Welcome to the crypto boom. This is what we want and how we like it. Exchanges are having trouble coping with their growing userbase and lack of skilled engineers. Wall Street is more & more getting involved. IRS wants to see what's going on at the exchanges. These can all be categorized under one common denominator - growing pains. In the coming years we can expect crypto to become more transparent but also more regulated, but eventually it's the traders that define the currency.
