So the big news is bitcoin is adding smart contracts to compete with Ethereum. Smart move in my opinion but I do think bitcoin will remain left in the dust as far as tech goes. Other coins are far past that point. But it did pump the king of crypto today... sending all altcoins into a downward spiral except for a few.
Coinbase announced today that it is not going to add Ripple. Ripple tumbles.
Visa shutdown all crypto cards that partnered with VISA... Tenx and Monaco are 2 that come to mind.
ARN; AERON an airline industry coin is up 500% today
Binance had so many orders to sell altcoins and get into bitcoin; BNB is up 60%
I like to think that there is room for many different blockchains and similar tech like hashgraph on this planet. Lots of money in bitcoin. Who knows how much it can be improved? I think that it will have to improve in order to survive.
