Bitcoin has bombed today losing a third of its value, all the cryptocurrencies have... could be partly down to it being possible to buy futures in it now, effectively betting on the future value of it. Does this mean people can short it? And it's all a bit flakey are there people who are able to manipulate it? It's popex all over again. I'm glad I'm too poor to have to worry about this, rich friends have some money in these things and have lost thousands today on paper.
It's nearly 5pm on the last working day before christmas... I make that pub o'clock!
