Why would the Federal Reserve Bank of St Louis officially come out and say they are tracking the price action of : Bitcoin, Ethereum, Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash?

Would you track something not important?

Would you waste time on assets that are “not real” and due to go to $0. I don’t think so.

All these mini-steps are all affirmations of crypto is indeed being looked at in a big way by major banks, institutions and more.

Very interesting.

Sort:  

Wow. I am glad we are in before them

Very true...but note how they have brought the market down the last six months.

Given past govern-cement performance, i am sure they keep track of unimportant things all the time. Like posting a watchman outside a gate that nobody uses. Yep... sure its one of those situations

... where can we waste some more money?

I can only imagine having this job...

Boss walks in!
Me: Changes screen from coinmarketcap. looks busy
Boss: How is the acquisition of data going?
Me: Tedious work boss. Having to type all of these number in, it will take me the better part of a year.
Boss: Good work, keep at it. Let me know if you run into any snags.
Boss: steals some of the chocolates in the bowl at the corner of my desk and walks out.
Me: switches screens and starts playing space invaders.

Ok you win:-) This is the same Fed that said cryptos are good for the Central Banks.

They are covering their bases.

I think you are right.
