Hola amigo muy buena tu informacion, creo que le da un enfoque realista a este mundo de las criptomonedas

good review. thanks bro!

I think now is a good timepoint to buy Bitcoin. Maybe the chart will climb some tousends dollar in the next month. But I am sure the BTC will never fall down like 17k to 8k.
So this is my opinion for the BTC in the Future:
The BTC is now a means of payment that has value in the future.

I hope someone has the same opinion like me ;)
