O n May 11 2020, the crypto world experienced the phenomena knows as Bitcoin halving . For those who are still a little looney-toons regarding this phenomena, here's the lowdown . Moral of the story is that, as the Bitcoin supply decreased and it's 21 million market cap slowly approached, it was widely accepted that the low supply and high demand will increase the price of the cryptocurrency back to its previous highs. Basic business right? Wrong! Source: Equity Trust Company BTC prices actually fell and after briefly holding steady, are only just rising above the 10000 USD range. Surprise eh? Well, we are not done yet. Because while the most valuable crypto coin wasn't showing it's expected gains, some other cryptocurrencies shot to outer space. There was no SpaceX rocket nor a Tesla Roadster involved. These "altcoins" bumped up in their market value thanks to the entire underlying system of cryptocurrency: investor speculation. But what exactly are these ...
As more top tier marquees roll up the expensively tailored khakis, the Pebble Beach show just seems to keep on rolling on the creative concepts as well as the "slightly more" legal going beauties for the generally car-loving public. What a week it must be for the photographers, jumping from unveiling to unveiling with little more than sparkling champagne sloshing vicariously in their bellies, with a sackload of an SD cards creating a hump the size of mount Everest. Really, the way to identify a professional car magazine or blog photographer is the person with his knees hunched, ready to race to the next unveiling at speeds even Usain Bolt would be mesmerised at, with their finger either superglued or twitching a few mm away from the camera's trigger button. Thankfully they are professional photographers...so they do take good photos.
1. Mercedes EQ Silver Arrow Concept
Silver arrow is possibly the most description you could give to this very..uh..interesting car. A silver arrow with wheels, a car where you gluteus maximus could turn into minimus if the bottom falls away, a car that would turn heads more than an Aventador, the EQ concept is the Germans saying "Why the flying f**k not eh?". It looks slippery, has an entire screen replacing a dashboard and its got + and - pedals. For whether you want to launch it to the moon or control it just enough to get to Harrods around the corner. Obviously. Oh, and it only seats one. And you obviously can't buy it.
2. Infiniti Prototype 10.
Another gung-ho conceptual project car sleekly based on the race cars of yore the Japanese concept is very sharp and long and with very few curves. Think of it as a "McLaren Senna-ed" version of the Mercedes EQ concept. This is, like its German rival an electric concept, what with global warming being a serious issue not just in California but the rest of the world as well.
3. Ferrari Pista Roadster
Finally a car you can buy! Provided you have the money of course. The roadster edition of Ferrari's latest track monger, the Pista looks more at home in this drop-top version. Obviously competing with a Lamborghini Huracan Performante Spyder, the Ferrari is for when you don't care about your hair messing up when on a track.
