 Bitcoin holders have done it tough throughout this brutal bear market, seeing the price plunge from 20k all the way to the current sub 4k level. The sustained period of lower prices has taken its toll, and tested even the most hardcore hodlers to the limit. At such times, any development that can provide a boost to those who have weathered the storm is welcome.
Thankfully, some good news is on its way for those flying the BTC flag, in the form of a free airdrop called MimbleWimbleCoin (MWC). Mimble what? Those familiar with Harry Potter will know that Mimblewimble is a curse that ties the tongue of the target to prevent them speaking about a particular topic. Thus, in crypto, the term 'MimbleWimble' was assigned to a protocol released in mid-2016, that provides a strong cryptographic framework, suitable for privacy focused blockchains. To date, the most notable projects to utilize the MimbleWimble protocol are Grin and Beam. While they both have positive aspects to them, the downsides are considerable. Grin has no cap on its supply and Beam has adopted a company style governance structure. Enter MimbleWimbleCoin, which will fork the Grin code base, have a capped supply of twenty million, and be distributed exclusively to Bitcoin holders who sign up to receive the airdrop. The combination of privacy features from the MimbleWimble protocol, store of value capabilities from a low cap supply and a straightforward distribution method to the strongest hodlers in crypto, could well see MimbleWimbleCoin become one of the rising stars during the next bull run. Registration for the MWC airdrop opens on April 20, 2019, with the snapshot of the Bitcoin blockchain, to determine distribution, occurring on July 19, 2019. In addition to the airdropped coins, 50% of the supply will be Proof of Work minable and there will also be a rewards program for holding. For further details about all aspects of MimbleWimbleCoin, visit the official website MWC.mw, follow on Twitter @M_W_Coin and join the MWC community on Discord.

 Bitcoin has been in a downward spiral over the past couple of weeks, with the price falling from the 6,000s to the 5,000s to the 4,000s and now to the 3000s.
After holding steady for so long in the $6,000 range, many had got comfortable with the stability of the price. BTC had become like the ultimate stable coin. Not so now, as even some long time holders have started to sell, fearing a further price collapse. For those who invested more than they could afford to lose, selling is an understandable reaction to a sudden fall, after a sustained period of market strength. This is why I repeatedly say, "Never invest more than you can afford to lose." That way, you can afford to hold your Bitcoin, no matter how low the price may go. In a worst case scenario, you can still pay the bills without losing a single Satoshi of your Bitcoin position. So if you're entering the BTC market now, or increasing your position as the price falls, keep in mind what I have just said. Bitcoin could still go lower and the price may not rebound for a considerable period of time. No one knows for sure. Don't put yourself in a position where further price drops or a sustained bear market force you to sell because you're overextended. Be a wise investor, not a gambler. Personally, I believe that Bitcoin will eventually return to all time highs and beyond... to the moon! Nothing has changed in terms of its fundamentals and the technology being built around it and to support it. Better days are ahead. Stay strong. image source  This brilliant song and video clip, 'Bitcoin Please Go To Moon', featuring 'bearish' Tone Vays and 'bullish' Mike Novogratz, was created by 1thousandx. You will find the lyrics and video below. Enjoy! Lyrics Bitcoin please go to moon Stop going sideways now Tone Vays say We going down to 1k But Mr Novogratz say We have Baaaaaa- ttooooo- -med out Battomed out Novogratz is bullish Battomed out Tone Vays is bearish [Tone] Bearish target is 1300 Novogratz is bullish [Novogratz] Bitcoin can be at 40 000 Let us go to moon pls  Bitcoin's price battle in the 6 to 7k range continues to rage. As you can see in the chart above, the past month has seen BTC navigate a narrow channel between $6,200 and $6,800. Sharp moves in either direction have lacked the momentum required to break out of this zone and push the price into a sustained trend up or down.
While bulls and bears plead their case, a strong hand and a firm belief in the long term future of Bitcoin are required to hold your position in the number one cryptocurrency. Trading and banking on significant price movements in either direction in the short term is a high risk strategy, fraught with danger. There will only ever be 21 million Bitcoin. History is on the side of an eventual return to the previous high and beyond. Will you still be holding your BTC when that day arrives? image source  Bitcoin Rhodium (XRC). Have you heard of it? Possibly not, and it's no wonder. We've already had Bitcoin Cash, Gold, Diamond, Private, Atom, Top, Hot and even Pizza for crying out loud! The number of forks and sporks has truly reached the absurd stage, so why on earth would anyone care about, let alone remember Bitcoin Rhodium?
While at first glance this seems to be a fair enough reaction, a closer inspection of Bitcoin Rhodium reveals that it has some special properties that set it apart from the list of Bitcoin 'Whatevers' mentioned above. To start with, it not a fork of the Bitcoin blockchain, nor is it a spork of Bitcoin and another altcoin. Instead, Bitcoin Rhodium is an airdrop, awarded only to those who signed up to claim it, and not to all Bitcoin holders. In addition to that, the developers have built a brand new blockchain. This gives XRC a uniqueness advantage over the forks. Next, and this is the killer app in my opinion, the supply of Bitcoin Rhodium is capped at two point one million (2,100,000). This is opposed to the circa twenty one million coins made available by the vast majority of Bitcoin forks, and the whopping two hundred and ten million units of Bitcoin Diamond. This gives XRC a scarcity advantage over the forks. Furthermore, the team members, including the developers behind Bitcoin Rhodium, have chosen to remain anonymous. In all communication on their Discord channel and social media sites, they have opted to use pseudonyms. Doing so removes the single point of weakness factor, created when there is a central, known figure behind a cryptocurrency. This gives XRC a security advantage over the forks. Add to this, enhanced privacy via two anonymization levels and a partnership with the rhodium precious metal market, and you've got a powerful new crypto asset. Bitcoin Rhodium is set to launch shortly after the final claim period, which ends on September 29, 2018. Finally, the secret will be out and Bitcoin Rhodium will take the crypto world by storm!

This is welcome news in a market that has seen many people in the crypto space, down and discouraged about the BTC price, despite its fundamentals being stronger than ever.
Some traders say that this Bitcoin price spike is a 'dead cat bounce' or 'short squeeze' that will soon be followed by new yearly lows. While some hodlers predict an incoming all time high. I say that short term price movements don't matter, unless you absolutely have to sell due to immediate financial stress or having invested more than you can afford to lose. Otherwise hold. The 2020 Bitcoin halving, when the block reward will reduce from 12.5 to 6.25 BTC per block, is less than two years away. Remember what happened to the price leading up to the last halving and in the year that followed? I'll give you a hint... Bitcoin to the Moon! image source |
