The Altcoin Rises

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 ...

The Week's Top Ten

1.  Another Hurricane. Another tragedy. 18 people were claimed by Michael, as the Hurricane ravaged the Florida Panhandle region with desperate people also resorting to looting.  The toll is unfortunately expected to rise as many people are still unaccounted for, with heavily waterlogged regions like Panama City having lost most if not all communication channels. Many of the nearby region's farmland has been shredded by the disaster. This hurricane is one of many who have been devastating the US as well the Pacific islands and are no doubt due to 'Global Warming' fueling its way across the world. In other disasters, Bali was rocked by a 6.0 magnitude earthquake, leaving a reported 3 dead.

The Week's Top Ten

1. Another Week...Another environmental disaster Indonesia was hit by a recent double whammy of a 7.5 magnitude earthquake and its resulting Tsunami. Greatly affecting Sulawesi, Palu region of Indonesia the disaster has shredded the city to ruins and around 832 people are confirmed dead. The death could rise to over 1000 (although we are extensively praying it won't) as search and rescue teams desperately search for any survivors. Like the Haiti earthquake in 2010, the region's supplies have been hit and many have taken to looting for any form of food.  With around 17000 people rendered homeless and an estimated 2.4 million people affected by the Earthquake X Tsunami,  aid has been slow to reach the worst affected areas as roads and the airport are damaged. RIP. ( P.S. If you want to donate to the Indonesian people you can go  here , or just google and send it through any other site, or send to ( working on some kinks) us and we'll send it to them 100%) 2. EA r...
