CRYPTO QUESTIONS
Comment from HCT - This might be my favorite correlation of all time: Avocado prices vs. Bitcoin
Comment from BTCVIX - Way back in 2012 and 2013 I started listening, Longo and the rest of the crew - I am pretty sure I am on record at some point asking the first Bitcoin question late in 2013. Obviously I choose to stick with my taste in the volatility world, and choose my name as @BTCVIX lol.
Question from Adobe - What do you think will happen first in the u.s. listed options or an actual ETF approved by the SEC?
