The Sunday Recap – Down the Rabbit Hole 15

While the price of Bitcoin continues to flatline the crypto space is anything but static. This week, Ari Paul reconsiders the assumptions underlying the pace of coming institutional investment. The Bitcoin maximalist among BTC maximalists, Murad Mahmudov issues a short-term bearish forecast. EOS gets the stamp of approval from Pantera Capital and decentralisation proves a far more complex endeavour than often portrayed.

As always, the posts are selected for the interest and thoughtful perspectives they offer. I don’t necessarily agree with each and every one of them.

I hope this week’s journey down the rabbit hole was worth the rummage. Looking back on the week past, I find it very helpful to reflect on all that’s actually happening rather than to simply reflexively focus on price. As always, I look forward to your comments, reflections, and critiques.


Note on Sources:

Twitter & Reddit (cryptos current meta-brains) / Medium / Trybe / Hackernoon / Whaleshares / TIMM and so on/ YouTube / various podcasts and whatever else I stumble upon. The aim is a useful weekly aggregator of ideas rather than news. Though I try to keep the sources current – I’ll reference these articles and podcasts etc. as I encounter them – they may have been published just a couple of days ago or in some cases quite a bit earlier
