Great comparison of all the miners using various kpi's and shows how rediculously low Argo is valuedhttps://youtu.be/lr5oWk41H90

Well if BTC holds until tomorrow morning the MM's will be struggling as to where to open the book.

What are you using Horne? Revolut or something else?

[brasso3] 29/11/2020 11:57

I send money from Holland to UK every month. It takes 1 - 3 working days no matter how small the amount.

[horneblower] 29/11/2020 11:49

Odd. I send similar amounts to my daughter in Wyoming.
It arrives almost immediately.
How much does it cost with btc?

[hootza616] 29/11/2020 11:45

Takes 3 days to transfer 4 figure FIAT amount to the USA via Revolut and that's quick! Unfortunately my sons collage doesn't accept BTC!

[horneblower] 29/11/2020 11:34

Brasso,
Thanks.

I think banks have improved considerably in the past couple of years.
These days transfers are almost immediate and can be inexpensive.

So much red tape these days. Opening my account with Coinbase was testing...but opening a bank account is too nowadays.

Coinbase standard account can be expensive. Coinbase PRO is much cheaper.

I have recently transferred all of my Coinbase crypto over to Kraken. It took about 20 minutes to transfer a 5 figure sum of assets. That is why crypto will destroy banking!

That's why you should never follow anyone else's TA - NOBODY knows is exactly right. All the charts do is give you continual data on price action which you can use to give you an edge. As I posted yesterday, the wall of buyers stepping in below 16500 were the clue it was going to reverse higher. I think this smallish (by BTC standards) correction means we can run a bit higher after ATH as less froth in the market, but I still see a bigger correction down the line where I expect to buy BTC around 15k. I'll be scaling in short again higher up.

Some good informative postsThe Macro fund issue is massive - they will all followAs someone said, chance to front run here is massivePlus massive short covering on Monday on openWill fly past 19,000 for sure

[suffersnofools] 29/11/2020 09:25

I love it when a plan comes together! That W formation played out to perfection - giving a buy signal @16890. Key 17400 level and now daily trendline recaptured. Waiting for a close on the 4hr but looking good so far. Next upside target 18300. A close below 17800 would be bearish.

We're currently around 1500 pts higher than we were at UK close Friday which should be good for a positive Argo open tomorrow if it stays that way.

[horneblower] 29/11/2020 09:09

4% commission on trading BTC on Coinbase!
That's 8% for turnaround!
Ouch.

I see EToro don't charge any commission but have a 0.75% spread.

There are many costs involved...currency exchange, transfer fees etc.

I'm beginning to like trading ARB more and more.

One of the places where Bitcoin is gaining popularity and acceptance is UAE. Currently, people are looking more often for places to buy bitcoin there. It is quite a simple process for both the country’s residents and tourists to buy leading cryptocurrency quickly and securely.

Bitcoin (BTC) has come a long way since the invention in 2009. Now it has an edge that cannot be ignored by savvy investors. In recent years, the world has taken an interest in the most attractive cryptocurrency. There are many positive outlooks on Bitcoin in the UAE, too. It should be noted that once the United Arab Emirates was a pioneer in embracing the blockchain initiative in the Middle East region.

There are various ways to buy bitcoin in the UAE. Over time, as the use of bitcoin and blockchain technology expanding in different areas, some initiatives in this direction emerged in the country. The number of cryptocurrency exchanges, branches, and ATM points is increasing day by day. It is not difficult to buy Bitcoins as long as you find the best option for you.

Online Crypto Exchanges
One of the ways to buy Bitcoin is by using online crypto exchanges. The exchanges are designed to support the dealing of cryptocurrencies. Before purchase, users enter an identification process. The process is called KYC (Know Your Customer). The KYC verification procedure requires information about buyers (proof-of-identity, proof-of-address, etc.). After the verification process is finished, Bitcoin transferred to the user’s cryptographic wallet. The only obstacle in this method is that it is not possible to pay cash.

ATM
Another alternative way to buy Bitcoin in the UAE is ATM. UAE’s first and only available bitcoin ATM is located in Dubai, the country’s largest and most populous city. It was installed at the Rixos Premium Hotel in JBR, Marina, in 2019. Users who decide to purchase Bitcoin via ATM can own it here with a 5% commission and cash payment only.

Buy Bitcoin in Dubai with Coinsfera
There is another method for those who want to buy a large scale of Bitcoin with the convenience of cash payment. Being able to buy Bitcoin in Dubai with cash is the most comfortable way for buyers. Operating since 2015, with a cryptocurrency cashpoint in Dubai, Coinsfera allows residents and visitors of the United Arab Emirates to buy, sell, and trade bitcoin with cash, instantly. It offers not only cash but also credit card payment too. Through Coinsfera, even if you are not an expert in the world of cryptocurrencies, buying bitcoin in UAE is quite simple. Coinsfera supports more than 500 cryptocurrencies in addition to Bitcoin(BTC), Ether(ETH), USDT (Tether) Bitcoin Cash(BCH). Cashing out with Dirhams or USD also possible.

Guggenheim's $5 billion Macro Opportunities Fund wants Bitcoin exposure.

On Friday they filed an SEC amendment allowing them to invest up to 10% of their fund in $GBTC.

A 10% investment would be worth $487M, and would be $200M+ larger than their next largest position.

Looks like a load of waffle to me. Explains why the same sort of commentators all went along with the Enron fiasco.

We feel now is a pretty good time to analyse Argo Blockchain plc's (LON:ARB) business as it appears the company may be on the cusp of a considerable accomplishment. Argo Blockchain plc, together with its subsidiary, Argo Blockchain Canada Holdings Inc., engages in the crypto asset mining services worldwide. With the latest financial year loss of UK£869k and a trailing-twelve-month loss of UK£1.3m, the UK£30m market-cap company amplified its loss by moving further away from its breakeven target. Many investors are wondering about the rate at which Argo Blockchain will turn a profit, with the big question being “when will the company breakeven?” We've put together a brief outline of industry analyst expectations for the company, its year of breakeven and its implied growth rate.

Check out our latest analysis for Argo Blockchain

According to some industry analysts covering Argo Blockchain, breakeven is near. They anticipate the company to incur a final loss in 2020, before generating positive profits of UK£2.4m in 2021. Therefore, the company is expected to breakeven just over a year from today. In order to meet this breakeven date, we calculated the rate at which the company must grow year-on-year. It turns out an average annual growth rate of 180% is expected, which signals high confidence from analysts. Should the business grow at a slower rate, it will become profitable at a later date than expected.

Underlying developments driving Argo Blockchain's growth isn’t the focus of this broad overview, however, keep in mind that generally a high forecast growth rate is not unusual for a company that is currently undergoing an investment period.

Before we wrap up, there’s one aspect worth mentioning. The company has managed its capital prudently, with debt making up 1.4% of equity. This means that it has predominantly funded its operations from equity capital, and its low debt obligation reduces the risk around investing in the loss-making company.

Next Steps:
There are key fundamentals of Argo Blockchain which are not covered in this article, but we must stress again that this is merely a basic overview.
