In my personal opinion, the next bull run in crypto’s has just begun!!!
I could post a number of charts to support my view, but it is a couple of days before Christmas and to be honest I can’t be bothered. Perhaps another day I will
First quarter of 2020 I believe should see the initial run north, then later in 2020 things should really heat up.
I am not a financial advisor & crypto’s can be risky. Do your own research.
A few coins I believe are relatively cheap at time of writing.
Bitcoin Cash ~ AU $280
Ripple/XRP ~ AU 28c
Litecoin ~ AU $60
Is there a white elephant in the room that nobody dares mention lately? I had a gut feeling, and now I think it's coming.Not sure, but indications are already there.
Regulation of exchanges?
Regulation of the financial industry and institutions against facilitation of exchange in cryptos?
Using anonymity of cryptos as the excuse to stamp out such practices (real or make-believe) as money laundering, cross-border transactions, and tax evasion, illicit activities, financial terrorism?
I Australia, the trend for the Govmint to eliminate anything good thing they want is to tax the shyte out of it - they remain innocent of banning or censorship, and increase "revenue" until said item is no longer popular.

Not even sure they will be able to totally stamp it out, but they could make it more difficult than it's worth.
At the very least it wont be difficult to flush out all the current blow-ins to the BTC euphoria (mum & dad, Aunty and Grandma), and that will surely hurt it.
In the coming months and years it will be tested as the crypto world attempts to adapt to new regulations, government oversight and concerns about its utility as a technology.
Tarric Brooker said:Eventually it appears the government and RBA efforts may be overwhelmed by the sheer scale of attempting to arrest falls in property prices as the incentive to hold property evaporates, whether due to demographics, unemployment or changing personal circumstances.
...concerns about its utility as a technology.
They banned plastic bags.Maybe they will try and over-regulate or ban it, but it's a dumb move.

They banned plastic bags.
They banned travel.
They banned tax-loss-selling.
They banned Huawei.
They banned fireworks.
They banned alcohol advertising.
They banned dividend stripping.
They banned Trump tweets.
They banned meat pies and finger buns in schools.
They banned online poker.
Crypto is a lightweight ban.
Not sure of your age , but there was a brief period of a couple of weeks in the mid-to-late 90s when I was at uni during which sellers discovered a loophole in the fireworks legislation. Temporary shops popped up everywhere selling them. You just had to sign a declaration stating they were being purchased for public exhibition, which could be interpreted as having a few mates around to watch them. The pollies closed the loophole pretty quick, but it was fun while it lasted.Waves. Currently tax loss selling here. And it's legal.
Haven't been able to buy fireworks in Qld since I was about 8. Legally. I do a good job losing bits of my fingers with kitchen knives and drill bits instead.

And if I was ever in Canberra, I'd go to Fishwyck - just for the fireworks.![]()
