After touching an ATH (All-Time High) of $1,400 in mid-January, its market cap was roughly $137B…

A far outcry from it’s meager $11 price tag and $975M market cap just one year ago.

Think about that for one second…

Ethereum was ONLY $11 one year ago and now sits at a little under $900!

If you’ve been reading my analysis’ over the last week, you know by now that I am always thinking long-term with my investments…

At least 6+ months out, if not years.

Ethereum is a prime example of this…

Not only is Ethereum a great piece of technology that allows developers to build and execute smart contracts on top of, but they have been able to create a living and breathing ecosystem around it.

This is the real reason for its success…

The community.

Of course, the increase in raising funds for ICO’s hasn’t hurt either, but at the end of the day, Ethereum has one of, if not the strongest community of developers in all of crypto (can’t forget about the OG, bitcoin).

If you take a look back at the most important market events of Ethereum over the last year, you’ll see that it was able to maintain momentum even through hacks, like the Parity wallet one, and networks outages, with the biggest being due to CryptoKitties (yes, it’s a real thing).

The one thing I noticed during these “negative” events, is that the community held strong, and actually fortified during these times…

Only proving that Ethereum will continue to be a safe-haven during the tough times, like the recent red days of the entire market, where Ethereum was one of the best performing Top-100 Crypto’s during these days.

Does Ethereum have its issues?

Sure…

But I’m betting that this community of super intelligent and motivated developers will continue to find solutions to their current problems and be able to scale this network to where it needs to be for real-world commercial applications.

Also, 250+ companies like BP, Cisco, Deloitte, Intel, JP Morgan, Microsoft, Pfizer, and Samsung, wouldn’t have paid $25,000 each and committed resources and their name to be a part of the Ethereum Alliance, if they didn’t see the power of this technology and their ability to continue to improve the network.

I’ll follow the smart money allllll day.

I’m not going to go out on the line and predict any prices for 2018, but I will come out and say that 2018 will be VERY favorable for Ethereum.

As always do your own research, but for me personally, I will be keeping a nice bag of ETH to increase by buying power when new pre-pre-ICO opportunities present themselves…

Just last week, we closed a deal on one of the hottest ICO opportunities of the year, in which our group of Insider’s received a 400% bonus for getting in early…

The public will only be receiving a 50% bonus when this goes live.

Guess what was needed to participate in this group buy opportunity??

Yup, you guessed right…. Ether.

Deals like these aren’t available for everyone, but fortunately I am plugged into the right networks in the crypto-world, where I don’t have to do the dirty-work of spending countless hours scouring the web, and are only presented the best and brightest ICO’s.

I then bring these deals to my group of Insider’s, and give them my reasons for investing and allow them the opportunity to get in on the same deal as me…

Which means they not only save time from having to do the initial leg-work of filtering hundreds of ICO’s, but they get an insane bonus for getting in early at the “friends and family” round.

We just opened up our Insider’s Circle for the weekend and normally the price to get in is $2,497…

But for a limited time, we are offering this deal to YOU, for only $1,997.

A quote by Brock Pierce, one of the early pioneers and evangelists of this entire movement, who said…

“This is an opportunity to be a trillionaire—someone who is positively impacting a trillion living things on this planet.”

After hearing Brock speak at a few blockchain/crypto conferences around the world, I fully believe him.

Think about it for a second…

When in the history of humankind, has there been an opportunity to connect with billions of people around the world and allow them to not only communicate with each other, but share in the creation and distribution of new value, without the need of an intermediary?

What the internet did to the disruption of information and communication…

Blockchain and cryptocurrencies will do to the creation and distribution of value.

That’s why many have called this the “Internet of Value.”

We are not only reinventing the meaning of money, but the way it is shared among us all…

The ones who create and distribute the most value amongst the global community will be the TRILLIONAIRES of tomorrow.

Because at the end of the day, what is “money” really?

It is the perception of value…

So if we can change our perception on how we create and share value…

We can reinvent “money.”

And that’s what we are currently doing…

Now’s a better time than ever to educate yourself on this new future of money and surround yourself with other like-minded people that are just as passionate as you are about this topic.

If you haven’t already joined our public Facebook group, I’d highly recommend doing so, as no one should embark on this journey alone.

See you on the inside!

What many expected to be an event that would establish the U.S. government’s stranglehold position on how they would begin regulating this new asset class for the future…

Was actually much less scary than what most projected, and the overall crypto market has responded significantly in favor of the outcome, as we are back in the green.

During our Insider’s Circle weekly coaching call last night with one of our expert cryptocurrency coaches, we briefly covered what was discussed during this committee hearing, as well as the implications for the overall crypto market going forward.

Let’s take a quick look at the five main points…

1. Blockchain technology is here to stay: even the government is smart enough to realize that blockchain technology, or the most popular form of “distributed ledger technology,” will help improve process efficiencies, cut costs, and save time. Expect to see more projects funded by the government using this technology, but don’t expect them to utilize decentralized cryptocurrencies.
2. Cryptocurrencies are a commercial byproduct of blockchain: SEC Chairman, Jay Clayton, sees cryptocurrencies as a way that people are monetizing the underlying blockchain technology, and that most of these “virtual currencies” have failed to live up to their promise of making “it easier and cheaper to buy and sell goods, particularly across borders” and “that transaction fees and costs will be eliminated or reduced.”
3. ICO’s that look like a security, talk like a security, and are sold like a security… are a security: this seemed to be Mr. Clayton’s biggest concern of the entire crypto market, is that many of these ICO’s, or Initial Coin Offerings, are being portrayed as something other than a security, when they are truly a security, but just in disguise. Expect the SEC to crack down harder on ICO’s offered to U.S. investors.
4. CFTC Chairman J. Christopher Giancarlo is now beloved by the crypto community: for someone who’s kids weren’t interested in stocks, but can’t stop talking about cryptocurrencies, this guy actually has an open mind about the future of digital currencies because it actually hits home for him. He not only knows what the term “HODL” means, and doesn’t mind explaining it to the committee, but understands that “We owe it to this new generation, to respect their interest in this new technology with a thoughtful regulatory approach.” We need someone like this in our corner if we are to work together and shape the future of crypto that we all need and want so badly.
5. Crypto has officially moved out of the darkness and into the light: something extremely interesting happened yesterday… for once, there was no mention of buying drugs and participating in illegal black market activities with cryptocurrencies. In the past, this was all the government wanted to highlight. And although, they still see this as a form of fundraising for terrorist organizations, the overall sentiment for consumer use-cases has changed. They now recognize the commercial appeal of this industry. This is HUGE for crypto going forward.

Overall, we believe that this meeting was a great start to a much needed step in the future of crypto, especially if large institutional investors are going to get into the game.

For them to even have any interest, there will need to be some form of regulation, and while we should be self-regulating ourselves to an extent, this market will never achieve it’s true potential of being TRILLIONS of dollars in value if there is not some sort of government oversight in how it operates.

“Stop screwing around bitcoin and just hit the damn bottom already!!”

For those that have been trying to predict the floor price before bitcoin comes back in a blaze of glory, you have been probably sweating a bit over the last week, as it keeps on going trending downward…

At this point, technical analysis can be thrown out the window…

This is ALL psychological.

There has been so much Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt pumped into the minds of the average investor by the media and big-players, that I don’t blame them for wanting to “get out while they can.”

But think bigger picture for a second…

As more experienced investors, we all knew bitcoin and the overall crypto market was due for a correction at some point in the near future…

Although we all wanted this ride to go upward and onward forever and ever, the parabolic growth was not sustainable…

And while it’s painful to have 6 and 7-figure losses in a day (do you feel my pain yet?), it hasn’t changed my viewpoint on the future that we are creating…

A world without middle-men taking their cut on every transaction of value…

A world where people can transact directly with one another in an open, transparent, and fair manner…

A world where you are your own bank and have full control over your personal finances…

An Internet of Value.

My friends, if you haven’t realized it yet, we are RE-INVENTING money…

And as you know, innovation isn’t a direct and smooth process…

There are bumps in the road and it takes time for people to see beyond the current status-quo to what is actually on the horizon.

But for those that recognize the problems the current status-quo brings and believe in a future where these problems can be solved…

Those are the true innovators and visionaries, and will be rewarded as such.

Now is a better time than ever to take a few days and study-up on projects that you are willing to place “bets” on for the next couple of years…

Because this new world isn’t going away and things will never be the same.

We have broken the status-quo and shifted the mindset of tens and hundreds of millions of people around the world, whom now see all of the possibilities of this new world…

And when they finally feel confident that the market has “hit bottom,” they’ll be back…

And guess who they’ll be buying from…

That’s right, you clever crypto-investor…

YOU.

Stay strong my friend, think BIG picture, and realize how miniscule this correction really is…

Even with all this FUD, bitcoin is still up 650% on the year!

Many people don’t know that when they are investing in Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin, Ripple, Dash, or any other cryptocurrency…

That they are actually investing in a software protocol.

There is a real team of developers, community managers, business development managers, sales associates, and advisors behind the coin/token.

For the coin/token to continue to appreciate in value, the team must deliver on certain milestones set in their Roadmap…

Which are usually new product offerings, software updates, and general improvements in the network.

As these milestones are hit and the network becomes easier to use, more people will begin to tell their friends, family, and new acquaintances.

As more and more people become stakeholders in this “software protocol” (coin/token), the network becomes more valuable.

What makes this new economy different and revolutionary is the ability for the average investor to participate in the overall value creation…

We can all be stakeholders, customers, and owners…

Which means we all have a vested interest in the outcome of our investment.

This can be a double-edged sword though.

So when looking at a potential coin/token to put your money into, ask yourself 3 questions…

1.) As a stakeholder (investor), do I believe the team can deliver on what they set out in their Roadmap?

2.) As a customer (user), would I actually want to use this product as a means of storing and sharing value?

3.) As an owner, would I recommend this company to my closest friends and family?

To sum it up, ask yourself one question…

Is the coin/token continuing to improve their product so that it is easy-to-use, reliable, and safe to recommend as an investment to my closest family and friends?

I believe if more people took this approach, there would be more quality projects, and less scams, because we as a community would be self-regulating ourselves by not promoting these terrible projects.

At LearnCryptoFast, we believe in only promoting REAL projects, with REAL teams, that are solving REAL problems. We believe in supporting these projects through group buy opportunities, where our Insider’s get in at the family and friend’s round of the most promising projects.

This is before the general public has an opportunity to contribute to these projects, and our group is rewarded with VERY favorable bonuses for supporting these projects early on.

Well, if not, it stands for: Initial Coin Offering.

It’s similar to a traditional IPO, or Initial Public Offering, in stocks… but with crypto.

These are ways that companies can raise money to implement their ideas on how their coin or token can solve a particular problem with the use of blockchain technology.

Well, at least they’re supposed to… the problem is that there’s like 5 new ICO’s being released every day. Yea.. Every. Single. Day…

There’s over 1,500+ coins/tokens RIGHT NOW and the list keeps on growing…

And unless you have an army of analysts, there’s NO WAY any human could analyze all those deals to actually make an intelligent investment.

So, you’re probably wondering… how do you know which ones to invest in?

Have you ever heard the saying, “it’s all about who you know?”

Well in crypto, it’s no different….

MY MULTI MILLIONAIRE CRYPTO ADVISORS SHARE WITH ME THE BEST DEALS THAT HAVE BEEN VETTED INSIDE AND OUT.

Yup, that’s right.. Instead of seeing dozens coming out every single week.. I only look at about 4 to 5 every couple of months.. Why?

Because we are SUPER SELECTIVE on which coins and tokens we invest in.. I only see the ones…AFTER the analysts and advisors have thoroughly screened them.

Who are these Advisors?

They are crypto hedge fund managers..

They are founders of Top 100 tokens…

They are the Crypto-Midases that you might have seen on Netflix Documentaries…

Yes, these are the very people that suggest what to have me and my other Mastermind members to invest in..

I have followed their recommendations and have had insane results..

Let’s take a look at a few examples..

I got into the pre-sale of WAX at $0.10…. It has traded as high as $2.75… Which is a return of 2,650%!!

Let’s take a look at another…

Got into SALT Lending at $.50…. It has traded as high as $17.49… which is a return of 3,400%!!

And my largest return to date…

I got into ORME at $0.10..  It has traded as high as $5.19… which is a return of 5,090%!!

These are just a few of my big hits… I don’t believe I need to give any more examples… I think you get the point.

Overall –  these investments, along with the rest of my holdings, have allowed me to 40x my portfolio in less than a year WITHOUT having to do the dirty work of scouring endless ICO’s…

These couple of choices have completely changed my life.

But, beyond myself… these choices have also changed the lives of my parents… How they live now… And how they will live out the rest of their amazing lives…

With these tokens and coins, we didn’t get in at the ICO stage,
which is normally available to the general public… We got in on the PRE Pre-Ico stage. This is during the “friends and family” round with these tokens, they offer a small amount of tokens at a great discount for being the first money in.

This happens way before 99.9% of people know or have even heard about them. So, during these early rounds, the founders of the coins and tokens allow the people that they know, and which want to support the project, to be the first in…and they give a certain amount of their allocation away for a reduced rate…

For the wrong project… this can be the riskiest time there is for an investor to get started.

Why is that? Because it’s at the VERY BEGINNING…It’s before their dream is created… Normally all they have is a whitepaper done…If you don’t know what a whitepaper is,
you can think of it as a Crypto-Business Plan, which lays out the vision for the business, what problem they are trying to solve, who the team is, and how they plan to accomplish it. Some of these businesses have very little to show at this stage…

No track record…

No product…

No service…

No traction…

No income…

You’re probably thinking at this point that it sounds a bit risky…

However, with my Crypto-advisors, it does not matter…

Because they instantly see the future potential and put their money where their mouth is…

And if there is one thing I have learned, it is that they DO NOT like LOSING MONEY..   

So, they are not going to tell me about a deal unless they actually believe in the project and are putting their money into it…Trust me…These people are as serious as it gets when it comes to making smart financial decisions.

So, while most crypto investors are spending days and nights looking for the next successful ICO…

We are being presented the best ICO’s, at the lowest price, and before anyone else has an opportunity to get in.

These coins and tokens are REAL businesses…

with REAL customers…

That solve REAL PROBLEMS.

And that will generate REAL revenue in the near future.

We will NEVER recommend ANYTHING that we are not also personally INVESTED in…We Will never quote on quote “PUMP and DUMP” anything…

If anything, when we share it with our community we will PROMOTE and HOLD…nothing artificial. We are not giving financial advice. We are only sharing quality, well researched information with our community to benefit from.

I’ll be sharing some more info in the coming days on how you can be a part of our Insider’s Circle and gain access to the same deals that I have been fortunate enough to be a part of.

Until then…

According to Investopedia, a “VC” or Venture Capitalist is “an investor who either provides capital to startup ventures or supports small companies that wish to expand but do not have access to equities markets.”

Venture Capitalists make risky investments in early-stage business ventures in hopes of returning massive multiples on their initial investment…

I’m talking 30-40-50x+…

So if the majority of their investments don’t pan out, they are still sitting well with a nice profit when it’s all said and done.

They are betting on the future…

And unless you’re a genie and have a magic ball, we all know that predicting the future with 100% certainty is impossible.

Sure, there are ways of increasing your probability of success, but at the end of the day, it’s all about taking a stance and sticking to it…

That’s what VC’s are great at.

They see the future through their limited lense, then they become skeptical and ask tons of questions…

When they feel confident that “their future” is likely to be “our future,” they put their money where their mouth is and take a stance…

Not just in the form of capital, but personal resources, like their time, energy, and personal connections.

Once they are “in,” they literally are “all-in”…

Doing whatever it takes to help make that investment succeed…

Because if there’s one thing that VC’s hate, it is losing money… they don’t lose.

It may take a year, or it may take a few years, but they stick to their “vision” and see the investment through to the end…

Whether that turns out to be favorable or not, all lies in the hands of the market, but be damn sure that they will do everything in their power to make it a successful investment…

And remember, all it takes is ONE.

Do you think the VC’s that invested in PayPal, Facebook, Uber, Whatsapp, and Twitter count their losses?

Sure, they might think of them from time to time, but probably with a smirk on their face when they think of all the insignificant investments they have made over the years…

Because ultimately, people only remember the wins.

The same can be said for investing in cryptocurrencies…

Find projects that interest you, that you are passionate about, and that you believe will shape the future…

And be skeptical and seek out the opposite views of your “hypothesis,” taking all accounts into consideration before coming to a conclusion…

Then not only put your money where your mouth is, but get active in the community and use your “superpowers” to bring value to the team and product…

Because what benefits the team and community, will ultimately benefit you and your investment holdings.

Just remember….

All it takes is ONE.

The only way to lose in this game (yes, it is a game if you haven’t figured it out yet), is if you have weak hands and don’t follow through on your “vision for the future.”

Don’t let friends, family, Facebook, Bloomberg, CNBC, or whatever other FUD-producing machine change your view…

Stand strong and HODL…

You will win in the end.

Tomorrow, I’ll talk about some of my biggest returns and how they have allowed me to offset my current​​ losses and maintain a profitable crypto portfolio, while buying the bottoms of the coins and tokens I most believe in.

That’s a question I have been getting a lot over the past month…

And it’s pretty easy to see why everyday investors, like you, are asking that…

The total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies has dropped from a January high of $830B to its current level of $372B, which is a 55% decrease in just a few weeks…

And Bitcoin’s price has dropped from $17,000 to $8,000, taking its market cap down from $296B to $133B. (Bitcoin currently represents 35% of the total crypto market cap, also referred to as “BTC Dominance.”)

So where did all the money go? Did it actually leave the market? Or did it just evaporate into the “ether,” in the same way it was created??

To understand the current state of the crypto market, we first need to understand what this number, represented as “total market cap”, actually is.

Most people think that this number of $830B is actually the total number of dollars invested in crypto…

While that would be great, it’s far from the actual number.

The market cap is merely a number derived from multiplying the current price of each crypto against its circulating supply.

So let’s take a look at Bitcoin for an example…

If there is a circulating supply of 16,840,850 BTC currently in existence, and the price of 1 BTC is $8,000, then the market cap of Bitcoin would be a little under $135B.

To get the total market cap of all cryptocurrencies, you would do this for each coin and token in existence, and then add all of the totals up to come to the current market capitalization of the cryptocurrency market… which is $372B as of this moment.

So, when someone says that “$100B just left the market”…

It doesn’t mean that a bunch of investors just sold all of their crypto holdings into fiat currency to the sum of $100B….

What they really are saying is that the total value of assets in the crypto market have lost $100B in value.

The actual term for money leaving the market would be “net outflow,” with “net inflow” representing the amount of money entering the market.

These are very important terms to understand when talking about the total market cap of all cryptocurrencies…

Because if you were to look at Bitcoin’s market cap of $296B and then see it drop to $133B, the story looks a lot different if you understand the concepts of net inflow and outflow.

What is an example of net inflow?

When someone goes into their exchange account on Coinbase, GDAX, BitFlyer, BitStamp, or Kraken, and buys BTC with their USD, EUR, or KRW, that transaction would be considered a “net inflow”…

It is new capital entering the market.

The same would be in reverse for when someone is “cashing out” their BTC for fiat currency, which would be considered a “net outflow.”

But if we were to look at the total circulating supply of BTC today, which is at 16,840,850 BTC…

Were all of those coins purchased at the same price of $8,000?

Was each coin bought with an inflow of fiat currency?

The answer to both questions, if you didn’t figure it out, is NO.

So, the market cap of Bitcoin in this circumstance is not a true representation of the amount of dollars invested in it.

Some people bought in at $1, some at $10, others at $100, and most of you got in above $1,000….

And some didn’t even use fiat to directly purchase BTC, if you think about mining and the creation of new bitcoins.

Are you still with me?

My point being, the market cap of bitcoin and all cryptocurrencies is very deceiving…

It is not a true representation of the current inflow and outflow of capital into the market, but merely a snapshot of the price action of a particular crypto, at a particular time.

Some say that the total amount of actual fiat currency invested into the crypto market is just a small percentage of the total market cap…

Anywhere from $10-20B, but it’s really hard to pinpoint an exact number, without auditing every exchange in the world (which will not happen anytime soon, if ever).

Now that you understand how the total market cap is derived, your panic should subside a bit (no pun intended)…

And you can calmly, take a look at the market in an intelligent manner.

What I believe to be occurring is a range of FUD surrounding the market…

Nothing but some good ‘ol Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt clouding the minds of confused and weak investors.

So while some of these investors are selling into fiat (net outflow), the strong handed investors are still holding, and are continuing the buy the dips of the coins that they believe in for the long-term…

Because at the end of the day, this is a marathon… not a sprint.

If you want to make it to the finish line, you have to think that way, or else you’ll collapse from exhaustion before the real race even gets started.

On red days and weeks like these, it’s better to just delete your Blockfolio app (or hide it deep down in a folder where you won’t feel tempted to look at it), stay off social media, and focus on your passions outside of crypto.

Go spend some time with your friends and family this weekend, and live a little…

I have full confidence that the markets will recover in the coming weeks and months, and you should too, if you believe in the future of money, like I do…

Have a great weekend!
