Ponzi and Tulips, Ponzi and Tulips.....ah, just more bad news for us crypto guys......Ponzi and Tulips.....The Circle/Poloniex acquisition is rumored to have cost $400 million. Folks, this stuff is about to blow up, it's coming, it's real. Risk a hundred or two, buy yourself a good, low priced crypto and park it, see what happens. You do not have to buy a full coin if you want to play with the bigger coins, the same hundred or two will work just fine. You don't have to be computer smart either, it's a very simple process. It's conceivable that a one to two hundred dollar investment could turn you into a millionaire a few years down the road.
