Highlighting what went right, and what went wrong, in this week’s crypto news analysis.

What a roller coaster the markets have been on this week, and quite a dramatic shift from the optimism last week ended on. Though, for crypto-enthusiasts who’ve been at this a while, it’s not exactly earth shattering news to learn there has been some BTC price volatility. 

On the plus side, there have been many positive moves in the world of regulators. We’ve published our monthly update of all the biggest developments you need to be aware of. This month that tops out at 75!  While some prominent jurisdictions lag behind, there is plenty to forward to in this space. Much of the work being done now sets the stage for a very productive 2019.
