It is believed, that the first BTC run was triggered by illicit activities, I.e., drug dealings, money laundering, terrorism, cyber crime and fraud. So much so that, by the end of 2017, BTC had reached an all time high of $19,883.55 in just a few short months, creating hundreds of millionaires overnight, thus, propelling BTC into the national spotlight.

The government took notice, and BTC soon came under attack, suffering the wrath of government bureaucracy and dubbed a fraud. BTC reversal was quick, but the bloodletting was slow and painful. Since it's historic run of 2017, BTC is down -68.21% to a now humble, $6,321.28 as of this writing.
BTC boast a market cap of $112.60 Billion dollars, with a 24 hour volume of $505,569,791 dollars, that's a whole lot of movement, but far from the tip of the iceberg. BTC potential for growth is undeniable. We are in the nascence of a revolutionary technology that can change lives, 'for the better,' of all who partake of its nectar.

Now we prepare for a second BTC Bull Run. The naysayers are becoming fidgety, looking for last minute ploys to derail BTC forward momentum. BTC is up and running, it harbors no ill will against its enemies. BTC is non-partisan, it sees no borders, race, religion, nor is it political. BTC was founded in 2009 by an unknown person or persons using the alias; Satoshi Nakamoto , as a peer to peer payment system without the need of a middle man I.e., banks. BTC meteoric rise to fame suggest that something is indeed wrong with the current banking system, and that the people need immediate relief from its strangulating tentacles. So prepare yourself, for the people have spoken.
