Tulips were in a bubble; demand was already saturated while supplies kept growing. In the case of BC, it is not yet even a mainstream thing - the demand may actually grow if it can be used in more places to pay for something.
Meaning it has quite some room to grow in the current conditions. With all the fiat-currencies devaluing over time, crypto-currencies don't have an inflation-target, and is hence a theoretical better store of value.

It's not a theory that I'm prepared to bet my house on.

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

A new study published in the Journal of Psychopharmacology, conducted by researchers from the University of Liverpool, Maastricht University and King's College London, shows that bilingual speakers' ability to speak a second language is improved after they have consumed a low dose of alcohol. This might explain the Bitcoin story

What they discovered is the fact that a lot of people have an inhibition to speaking foreign languages. Anything is worth funding if money is cheap

In a paper published Monday in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, the scientists report that they have created 12 healthy pigs with about 24 percent less body fat than normal pigs. Don't mess with the bacon

Here in the U.S. we call them "dogs". 
|
|
|
|

ROFLMAO.

Should not have less, but more fat. We don't eat pig to be healthy. We eat it because it is not a dry-tasting fatless piece of meat.

Quote: The company is looking to spur on development in the B2B space, saying that its technology is designed to increase speed, transparency and costs in cross-border payments.
Suddenly it all makes sense. (emphasis mine)

A suit filed Friday in the US District Court in Los Angeles by four South Korean banks alleges “massive fraud” with an outstanding debt of at least $230 million, and California-based electronic parts seller Newegg has been named as a defendant, along with wholesaler ASI Corporation and its officers. "Prepare yourself for an eggs-peditious defeat!"
I mention it as I know it's rather popular with a certain class of frugal shoppers.

Regardless of the outcomes, someone ends up with egg on their face....

Quote: Newegg intends to vigorously defend itself against those unfounded charges.
Yeah, famous last words.

I thought the article was somewhat interesting though.

Recently, users started reporting an issue which causes certain apps to disappear from the operating system after installing the update. "He tightens and loosens a few spare parts, one thing's fixed, another falls apart"
|
|

|

My update was seamless and surprisingly fast. And it got rid of a bunch of crummy apps I didn't want (and never opened. For all I know, they never existed except as icons.)
