I think Bitcoin has dropped and been held back due to so much fear of the fork but its looking impossible now so its been held back and will slingshot from all of its held potential. At the start of this year it got really pumped from alot of Asia wanting their money more protected after all sorts of world wide hacks were happening. Next time there is a global event like a Major hacking or a currency going into recession we will see it boom 10fold. Just my opinion nobody really knows :)
Yes, It was an interesting start to the year with china pouring in to the bitcoin and PBOC scaring investor with regulations. Every time something causes uncertainty and the price drops, it's the best time to buy more :)
That's why I keep the majority of my money in crypto. I have a nice cash-flow of tips from serving so I don't have to worry about keeping too much fiat on hand. If I ever need to pay for something I can have the money in one or two shifts.
