That's it!
Some interesting news today, Coinbase launching a tax calculator that can only be used if you've not used any other cryptocurrency buying platform/exchange? Also, I would definitely like to get an electric car and charge it using Bitcoin! Am I the only one who finds that cool? I hope not...

The markets are mostly red. Only major gainers are Binance coin, Populous, some random crypto called 'Bitmark', and of course, my favorite, Substratum :)! Whats your opinion on these cryptos, and the whole market right now?
