What's Next on Coinbase, Bitcoin Volatility, and Decentralized Governance

in #bitcoin6 years ago

Today let's talk about the rapidly declining Bitcoin volatility (who needs a stablecoin when you have BTC?!) and what's next on Coinbase. I recently made a portfolio move based upon an educated guess for the next Coinbase addition, and I'll walk through my logic (or lack thereof) for the decision. Also, let's check out the latest experiment in decentralized governance.

Sort:  

I think this reporting is actually a lagging indicator of sorts. I'm finding the volatility is picking up recently - the trades I'm getting with some of my algorithms are heading over 1%'s where over the past few months, it's been 0.5 to 1%...

This is without any tweaking in algorithms or other factors - just an anecdotal noticing by me that trades are resulting in a higher percentage of profit per trade. I probably should do some analysis of frequency of trades to see if there's any meat to my anecdotal impressions.
