Ian Gillan Official 19 September 2018
“Smoke On The Water (76,717,300 views) has been inducted into the prestigious Recording Academy’s GRAMMY Hall Of Fame.” Ian Gillan (born 19 August 1945) is an English singer and songwriter. He is the lead singer and lyricist for the rock band Deep Purple. Years active: 1962–present Associated acts: Episode Six, Deep Purple, Ian Gillan Band, Gillan, Black Sabbath, Gillan & Glover, WhoCares. Website: http://gillan.com/ Deep Purple are an English rock band formed in Hertford in 1968. The band is considered to be among the pioneers of heavy metal and modern hard rock, although their musical approach changed over the years.Originally formed as a progressive rock band, the band shifted to a heavier sound in 1970. Deep Purple, together with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, have been referred to as the “unholy trinity of British hard rock and heavy metal in the early to mid-seventies”. They were listed in the 1975 Guinness Book of World Records as “the globe’s loudest band” for a 1972 concert at London’s Rainbow Theatre,and have sold over 100 million copies of their albums worldwide. Deep Purple have had several line-up changes and an eight-year hiatus (1976–1984). The 1968–1976 line-ups are commonly labelled Mark I, II, III and IV. Their second and most commercially successful line-up, consisted of Ian Gillan (vocals), Jon Lord (keyboards, backing vocals), Roger Glover (bass), Ian Paice (drums), and Ritchie Blackmore (guitar). This line-up was active from 1969 to 1973, and was revived from 1984 to 1989, and again from 1992 to 1993. The band achieved more modest success in the intervening periods between 1968 and 1969 with the line-up including Rod Evans (lead vocals) and Nick Simper (bass, backing vocals), between 1974 and 1976 (Tommy Bolin replacing Blackmore in 1975) with the line-up including David Coverdale (lead vocals) and Glenn Hughes (bass, vocals), and between 1989 and 1992 with the line-up including Joe Lynn Turner (vocals). The band’s line-up (currently including Ian Gillan, and guitarist Steve Morse from 1994) has been much more stable in recent years, although keyboardist Jon Lord’s retirement from the band in 2002 (being succeeded by Don Airey) left Ian Paice as the only original Deep Purple member still in the band.

HAWK Written By Londa R. Marks, a founder of HAWK | July 2016 In the mid 1980â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Ahmet Ertegun, co-founder and president of Atlantic Records was considering signing popular Hollywood, California glam rock band HAWK to Atlantic Records. Just at that time turmoil within the band began and ultimately everything disintegrated due to money issues and personal differences.
HAWK was founded by and sponsored by Londa R. Marks and Doug Marks. HAWK band lineup was Doug Marks (Metal Method guitar instructor, guitarist), Scott Travis (drums, Judas Priest), Lonnie Vencent (bass, BulletBoys & King Kobra), Charles Morrill (vocals). HAWK album included David Fefolt (vocals), Matt Sorum (drums, Guns â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;N Roses, Velvet Revolver, Hollywood Vampires, Motorhead), Dave Tolly & Steve Ayola

Being signed to Atlantic Records may have been a good thing, but maybe
not; 30 years later, a HAWK album is at least still being sold by one of the original HAWK artists, Doug Marks, as digital download or compact disk. If Atlantic Records had signed the band, possibly a lot of money/fame/artistic validation would have happened with HAWK but also possibly no money would have been made for the artists. In some cases however, selling your own albums can give you control over what you earn..

Message From Craig Goldy August 29, 2018 Craig Goldy II Facebook This 3rd release....is a song called “Weird World” It is part of a 4 month promotional campaign that Frontiers has graciously began that has given us a peak at the album to come called “Until Death Do We Meet Again”. The 4th song which will also be the 2nd video will be released on the same day that the album is officially released.....Sept 14th! This song here.....”Weird World” ......is a bit “weird”.....on purpose!! There are some deep lyrics .....especially in the vocal bridge just before the solo.....like in the 2nd verses for “You Can’t Take Me Down” & “Under The Wire” ......they too get deep.....but if you stay with me/us..... this album will be and should be an experience......just like the good ‘ole days that this band is trying to recapture yet make new! I have something that I will say to you all just before the album is released.....and I hope that you all take it in the spirit in which it is given!! But until then.....here is my post of “Weird World”! There will be some promotional challenges to you the listeners.....so if you guess just right.....I will spend 30 minutes on a personal and private Skype video ....one on one with me and the challenger that first guessed the correct answer! I’ll be doing a few of these......and will be doing some very personal and private special gifts to those who answer the questions that are to come in the next few months ahead! I’ll be posting the lyrics to “Weird World” in the comment section below in a bit! I love you all and miss you all.....and there will be some time that I will set aside just for you!! Talk to you soon!! CRAIG GOLDY PHOTO Stephanie Pillar Photography

Dream Child Features: Craig Goldy: Guitars (ex-Ronnie James Dio, Giuffria) Simon Wright: Drums (ex-AC/DC, DIO, Operation: Mindcrime) Rudy Sarzo: Bass (ex-Quiet Riot, Ozzy Osbourne, Whitesnake/David Coverdale, DIO) Wayne Findlay: Guitars and Keyboards (Michael Schenker) Diego Valdez: Vocals (Helker) Of “You Can’t Take Me Down” Craig Goldy states: “It’s about when all the people, circumstances, obstacles and so forth that life can throw at us take a turn for the worst and that no matter what, we can and will prevail!” Craig Goldy says, “The band Dream Child was conceived during a brainstorming session with Serafino (President of Frontiers) one day while discussing other matters over the phone. I mentioned that I had been listening to my favorite bands a lot recently, Deep Purple and Rainbow’s “Rising” album, among others in that style and had noticed that many people who also love those bands often have the very same comments as one another: “They don’t make music like that anymore!” Even though I said that in passing, Serafino asked me a question that would forever shape my future. He simply asked, “Well, can you?” and I said.....”YES!!!” During the very first public memorial for our most beloved Ronnie James Dio, I had mentioned that whenever I do start writing original material again that I would utilize everything that I had learned from working side by side with the Master for so many years in such a way that I would hope to make him proud....and here it is! The name is inspired by one of his lyrics on the “Dream Evil” album and the nickname he gave me at the time, Dream Child! We are so very fortunate to have bassist Rudy Sarzo as a featured guest, Simon Wright on drums, Wayne Findlay on guitars and keyboards, and a surprise vocal discovery from Argentina, Diego Valdez, whose voice will send shivers up your spine!! This album will bring back memories of the days most people have thought were long gone and never to return, yet it is also new and fresh enough to be unique with some unexpected twists and turns!! No more “same old, same old” here, no fillers. Every song is an oasis in the desert and a rare gem in the coal mines of life in this new world that thinks the past greatness of rock would remain in the past. We’ve brought it back to life once again!! I am very proud of this album and all who have made this become a reality. There are some big names who’ve lent a hand in the writing and I am amazed at the new and aggressive sound that producer Alessandro Del Vecchio has brought to these songs!!! I hope you all agree....” FRONTIERS.IT

Review of Pat Travers Band at Eddie’s Attic Atlanta, GA June 9, 2015 Published on September 20, 2015 and May 2017 Photo & Written By Londa R. Marks “Pat Travers is one of the best blues rock musicians alongside greats like Rory Gallagher and Gary Moore.” —Londa R. Marks Blues Rock Guitarist Pat Travers performed at a small concert venue in Decatur, GA, the outskirts of Atlanta, on a Tuesday night, as if performing to a crowd of many thousands. When you experience Pat Travers prepare to be transported to his world of music as if nothing else around you exists for an hour and half. You feel his passion during the show and for days after. He attacks guitar impeccably with every ounce of his soul. His vocals are seductive and sound is well crafted. You become part of his message. Most of the favorite Pat Travers songs were played including: Crash And Burn, Stevie, Statesboro Blues. The show started with hammering, hard blues rockin’ energy, not words describing what they were going to do, but pure power drew you in and didn’t dissipate, didn’t let go, didn’t stop. The end of the performance arrived too soon. Not only does Pat Travers’ passion connect with the audience but the band is on the same plane complimenting each other with some of the best players around executing his music, reading each other flawlessly. Pat’s professionalism is outstanding and he still has that one thing that adds to a musician’s success which is hunger. That is difficult to say about musicians who have been around since the 70’s, which is why Pat Travers is one of the best blues rock musicians alongside greats like Rory Gallagher and Gary Moore. The intimacy of a small concert venue has advantages for fans and band alike. Being close to such legendary musicians like Pat Travers, connecting on a soul level, immersed in their artistic expression makes you a part of their experience. It is doubtful anyone left disappointed because the merchandise stand was packed after the show while the band spoke with everyone purchasing memorabilia such as: Pat Travers cool t-shirt based on the song, “Snortin’ Whiskey, Drinkin’ Cocaine,” and two albums, “Live At The Iridium NYC” and “Retro Rocket.” Before the show the band took time to speak with fans roaming around the bar area connecting with you as if you are old friends. Pat Travers is too humble, making sure to tell you that this will be a good show, as if anyone would doubt it. The band members are down to earth low key guys, friendly, fun and undeniably appreciative of their fans. Pat Travers Band Members at the time were: Pat Travers (guitar, vocals), Kirk Mckim (guitar), Rodney O’Quinn (bass), Sandy Gennaro (drums).

“The last gig we did in England was over two years ago,” bassist Tony Stevens pointed out in a 1974 interview. “It’s just not worth it, going up and down the country working your bollocks off. Unless you’re the front page of Melody Maker, you can only make enough money to pay your scotch bills, because there are only the very big concerts and the small clubs that hold under a thousand people. When we’re in England we stay at home
and take it easy, although we’d love to play there.” The band’s enjoyment paid off in a big way when the album arrived in stores: Fool for the City became FOGHAT’s first platinum album, selling more than a million copies and notching a personal-best chart peak of No. 23. Read Full Article

RORY GALLAGHER LEGACY Brian May, lead guitarist of Queen, relates: “so these couple of kids come up, who’s me and my mate, and
say ‘How do you get your sound Mr. Gallagher?’ and he sits and tells us. So I owe Rory Gallagher my sound.” In
2010, Gallagher was ranked No. 42 on Gibson.com’s List of their Top 50 Guitarists of All Time. Gallagher was also
listed on Rolling Stone magazine’s list of the 100 Greatest Guitarists of All Time, ranked at 57th place.
In April 2014, at the time of the auction of Gallagher’s
Patrick Eggle ‘JS Berlin Legend’ guitar, the BBC noted:
“Eric Clapton credited him with ‘getting me back into the blues’. The Rolling Stones wanted him to replace Mick
Taylor and when Jimi Hendrix was asked how it felt to be
the world’s greatest guitarist, he is reported to have said: ‘I don’t know, go ask Rory Gallagher’” (but this may be a variant of an urban legend. SOURCE
“I’ve always sought to evolve within the boundaries where rhythm ties in with the lead, using suspended chords... Technique by itself doesn’t mean anything.” —Rory Gallaghe

“Rory did say a few things, like it was like a crash when he got off stage. And, when you see the Irish Tour film, back in the dressing room you just see him, just kind of, it takes him awhile to recover from a show. I don’t know whether he just saved up all his energy and was quiet and did his thing in a normal day and why he wasn’t an extrovert in real life, he kind of bottled it all up until he went out on stage. I don’t know how else he could go from those extremes unless he’s holding something back until he’s there doing the thing that he loved.” —Donal Gallagher, Rory’s Brother
David Fricke said, “I met him once. I got to have my picture taken with him backstage. And, he seemed very shy. You saw that power and that drive at the mic as he played, and it was back stage at the Bottom Line, it was almost like he didn’t know what to do with any limelight. I went up to him and said, I think you’re the business, and it was like, no response.” Donal Gallagher responded, “He was very sweet and very shy but his transformation when he got on stage and got plugged in was quite extraordinary.”

“Against The Grain: The Rise And Fall Of The Legendary Rory Gallagher” — Guitar World ‘Holiday2009’ by Alan Di Perna READ FULL ARTICLE [EXCERPTS] Donal says, “Rory never actually took a proper vacation. He’d use his vacation time for songwriting, developing, and listening to other people’s music. He didn’t know what else to do with himself.” He did not take much interest in the typical distractions of life on the road. Donal says Rory didn’t use recreational drugs, nor did he go in much for groupies. I think that he was so keen on becoming a professional musician from an early age that he basically blocked everything else out of his life. In his teenage years, he just felt that girlfriends were a drawback. He’d seen too many guys fight over girlfriends, and seen girlfriends split up bands. For him, music was like a vocation in the priesthood. Later, there were one or two women, but he never settled down. Like many solitary, creative and intensely driven people, Rory found in alcohol a buffer to help block out the world and to dull the pain of isolation. Although alcohol wouldn’t become a real problem for him until the Eighties, there were earlier signs of impending trouble. “He’d go off and have a binge of drinking,”Donal recalls. “He’d lock himself in a room for three days, probably go through a few bottles and come out with a set of songs.” Gallagher’s personal issues certainly didn’t impede his output in the Seventies. Indeed they may have been at the root of his compulsion to record and release discs. The album that many fans regard as the apotheosis of the Martin/ De’Ath/McAvoy lineup was Irish Tour ’74. Live albums were hugely popular in the Seventies. Everyone form The Who and Stones to Yes, Deep Purple, Peter Frampton and Led Zeppelin released blockbuster live discs during the decade, and live performance was certainly Gallagher’s metier. Unable to connect with people very well in ordinary social situations, he may have treasured those few hours of rock & roll communion. While Irish Tour ’74 didn’t have a major impact in the states, it was the best-selling disc of Gallagher’s career, worldwide. Had Irish Tour been less successful, Gallagher might have responded differently to an offer that came in late late ’74/early ’75 to join the Rolling Stones. Mick Taylor had just left the group and, as Donal tells the tale, Rory was the Stones’ first choice for a replacement. The offer came quite informally — a phone call from Stones pianist Ian Stewart inviting Gallagher to “come have a blow and a jam session with the lads.” The invitation was postponed several times as the Stones were having problems with a new mobile recording truck they’d acquired at the time. Rory, meanwhile, had an important Japanese tour on the immediate horizon. “Rory was naive enough to think, ‘Oh they only want to have a blow and a jam session,it’s nothing serious,’” Donal says. “I was angry with him, to say the least.” In the years after wards turned down similar offers from Deep Purple and Canned Heat, but by then Donal knew enough not to be surprised by his brothers decisions. One positive offshoot of not becoming a Rolling Stone was that Gallagher went on to make two of the finest solo albums of his career, Against The Grain released in ’75 and Calling Card in ’76. By this point, the Martin/De’Ath/McAvoy lineup had become a well-oiled machine. Calling Card also benefits from first-rate production work by Deep Purple bassist Roger Glover. For once, Rory was able to trust someone else with the production of one of his albums. Donal says,”We’d been out on a package tour with Deep Purple and Fleetwood Mac. On the road, Rory hit it off with Ritchie Blackmore and all the Deep Purple guys.” “Those other guys were prepared to act the superstars, and Rory wasn’t,” Donald say’s, “he would not let the record company release singles from his albums.
Gallagher’s refusal to play the singles game demonstrates the extent to which he lived in his own private world. Donald says the single release issue reared its head once again during the tense moments at the conclusion of the calling card sessions. “Chris Wright, who was one the two bosses of Chrysalis Records, said, “I will tell you what. Put the album release back here. We’ll take the track “Edged in Blue”, lop the guitar solo off and release that as a single. We’ll call the album Edged in Blue when it comes out.” Chris Wright is a music exec. I respected him. I went back to Rory and said, “Look, this is proposed by the president of the company.” Again, he nearly got on the phone to damn blast Chris for even thinking about it.” Gallagher’s career and life took a turn for the worse in the Eighties. A hint of bitter irony creeps into some of his albums titles. Top Priority was a somewhat mocking reference to Chrysalis’ promise that the disc would be their top marketing priority — despite the trashed masters, refusals to release singles and other drama Rory had put them through in the past. As the Nineties got under way, Gallagher was able to perform less and less frequently. Poor health forced him to turn down an offer to play on one of Mick Jagger’s solo albums, among other gigs. Shortly after what would be his final performance,in the Nederlands, on January 10,1995, Rory’s liver failed. “He was going in and out of a coma and I had to make the decision to have a liver transplant done, ” says Donal. “I’d never expected to be confronted with something like that, and the clock was ticking because we had to wait for a donor. You can’t just buy a new liver.” Rory survived the initial 12-hour transplant surgery. But complications set in and there were numerous subsequent surgeries over the agonizing period of some three months. In the end, an infection he caught while in the hospital claimed his life. Donal Gallagher was at his brother Rory’s side when he passed away in London, on June 14,1995, at the age of 47. SOURCE http://shadowplays.com/blog/?p=708

Lou Martin Louis Michael “Lou” Martin (12 August 1949 – 17 August 2012) was a piano and organ player from Belfast, Northern Ireland, most famous for his work with the London-based band Killing Floor, and with fellow Irish musician Rory Gallagher. Martin later left Killing Floor to play alongside Gallagher, and is featured on several of Gallagher’s albums, including Blueprint, Tattoo, Irish Tour ‘74, Against the Grain, Calling Card, Defender and Fresh Evidence. He also played rhythm guitar on one track, “Race the Breeze” from Blueprint. After leaving Gallagher’s band, Martin and drummer Rod de’Ath formed Ramrod, after which Martin played with Downliners Sect and Screaming Lord Sutch, and also toured with Chuck Berry and Albert Collins. Martin played in the Nickey Barclay band in London in the 1980s, alongside Barclay (ex-Fanny) on keyboards, with John Conroy (ex-Sam Mitchell Band) and Dave Ball on lead guitar (ex-Procol Harum). The band played across London on the blues rock circuit during the 1980s at venues such as The White Lion, Putney; The Star and Garter on Lower Richmond Road; The Golden Lion, Fulham and the Cartoon, Croydon. Killing Floor released an album in 2004 named Zero Tolerance, on which Martin participated. After a period of illness including can cer and a number of strokes, Martin died peacefully in a hospital in Bournemouth, Dorset on 17 August 2012, aged 63.

John Gerrard McAvoy (born 19 December 1951, Belfast, Antrim, Northern Ireland) is a Northern Irish blues rock bass guitarist. He played with blues rock musician Rory Gallagher between 1970 and 1991, and then with Nine Below Zero until 2011.
McAvoy was born in Belfast, Northern Ireland on 19 December 1951. In his youth, he enjoyed listening to his sister’s collection of Buddy Holly, Beatles and Rolling Stones records. Aged 13, he bought a second-hand Muddy Waters album in a Belfast record store and later said it “changed my life”. He began playing in bands soon afterwards, initially on rhythm guitar before switching to bass. He later joined the band Deep Joy, playing Motown and 60s pop covers. During his tenure in the band he first played with drummer Brendan O’Neill, who was later to tour with Rory Gallagher and appear on his last three albums Jinx, Defender and Fresh Evidence. Deep Joy eventually moved to London but split in late 1970, at the same time as Gallagher’s band, Taste broke up. Gallagher contacted McAvoy, who had returned to Belfast, to come back and rehearse. The pair jammed with latterday Deep Joy drummer Wilgar Campbell, and the trio became Gallagher’s first solo touring band. McAvoy began listening to blues records at an early age. As well as rock and roll, his main influences include Muddy Waters, Paul McCartney and Jet Harris. In his autobiography he cites his brother-in-law (of the same name) as an influence on much of his musical taste. On 18 December 2011 McAvoy performed his last gig (to date) with Nine Below Zero in Leicester, at a venue called ‘The Musician’. He subsequently formed “Gerry McAvoy’s Band of Friends”. On 15 May 2014, Gerry McAvoy’s Band of Friends performed at the Flowerpot in Derby for a celebration of the music of Rory Gallagher and were supported by British acoustic blues singer songwriter, Matt Woosey.

The Velvet Underground was an American rock band formed in 1964
in New York City by singer/guitarist Lou Reed, multi-instrumentalist John Cale, guitarist Sterling Morrison, and drummer Angus MacLise (replaced by Moe Tucker in 1965). The band was initially active between 1965 and 1973, and was briefly managed by the pop artist Andy Warhol, serving as the house band at the Factory and Warhol’s Exploding Plastic Inevitable events from 1966 to 1967. Their debut album, The Velvet Underground & Nico (with German-born singer and model Nico), was released in 1967 to critical indifference and poor sales, but over time has been critically acclaimed; it was called the “most prophetic rock album ever made”
by Rolling Stone in 2003.
Friars Aylesbury is a music club that runs in Aylesbury, Buckinghamshire,
England. It opened in 1969 but closed down twice, once in 1970 for a period of nine months and again in 1984 for a period of twenty-five years. Friars Aylesbury reopened in June 2009 to tie in with its fortieth anniversary. Artists as David Bowie, Genesis, Wishbone Ash, Mott the Hoople, Cockney Rebel, Sailor, Stackridge, Stiff Little Fingers, UFO, Pink Floyd, King Crimson, Hawkwind, Lou Reed and more have performed there.

Leonardo Da Vinci was frustrated that he was born in a period where everything worth being discovered had already been discovered.

Almost ALL of the potential discovery that humanity will do is in the future.

Aubrey de Grey ‘You could have people living for thousands of years’ —Aubrey de Grey, biomedical gerontologist and chief science officer of the Sens Research Foundation, a charity focused on age-related disease
Aubrey David Nicholas Jasper de Grey (born 20 April 1963) is an English author and biomedical gerontologist and mathematician who has made a significant contribution to the Hadwiger–Nelson problem. He is currently the Chief Science Officer of the SENS Research Foundation and VP of New Technology Discovery at AgeX Therapeutics, Inc. He is editor-in-chief of the academic journal Rejuvenation Research, author of The Mitochondrial Free Radical Theory of Aging (1999) and co-author of Ending Aging (2007). He is known for his view that medical technology may enable human beings alive today not to die from age related causes. De Grey was born and brought up in London, England. He told The Observer that he never knew his father, and that his mother Cordelia, an artist, encouraged him in the areas she herself was the weakest: science and mathematics. He was educated at Sussex House School and Harrow School. He attended the University of Cambridge, and studied at its constituent college of Trinity Hall. He graduated with a BA in computer science in 1985. I now have two beats in my body, a heartbeat and an earth beat. I don’t feel closer to machines; I feel closer to nature and other animals. I think it’s perfectly conceivable that we will be able to alter our bodies in such a way that we feel closer to the planet. We can be inspired by other creatures and how they perceive reality. ‘The body will have human elements, but will be integrated with technology’: Braden Allenby, environmental engineer at Arizona State University and co-author of The Techno-Human Condition. I believe the split between the human world and the natural world that we’ve all grown up with will begin to look obsolete. The human will become very different, as we fuse our individual selves into techno-human networks. We’re used to thinking of ourselves as Cartesian individuals: separate from nature, separate from other human forms. But if you look at what’s happened to our cognitive processes in the last couple of decades, you’ll see that’s already changing. We’ve already outsourced much of our cognitive ability to Google. People can’t read maps any more because Google Maps tells them where to go. Darpa (the US military’s Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency) recently chipped an individual so he could telepathically control multiple drones. That’s just the beginning. If we can survive this moment, I think we will move towards a world where man is no longer the measure of all things. It will turn out we’re simply components of large operating systems. Rather than the Frankenstein image of technology destroying humans, we will integrate the two. The body will still have human elements; but it won’t look like anything you and I call human. It sounds hard to imagine – but WATCH > it is already happening. Look at any city street. At least half the people are looking at their phones. We’re already integrated into networks beyond our physical environment. We’re just a few tool discoveries away from being able to radically improve ourselves. I’m building brain-machine interfaces that will bring the brain online, in a similar way to how other bodily functions are now online. Your footsteps are “online”, if you want them to be.

Peter Thiel: Crypto vs. AI Dichotomy Will Determine the Future of Humanity Peter Thiel, the Paypal co-founder and venture capital billionaire known to be long on Bitcoin, has given a lengthy interview on The Rubin Report discussing his views on many subjects.

From Bitcoin Obituaries - Bitcoin Declared Dead 300 Times and Counting... “He lost his life savings!” He only loses his life savings if he sells at the bottom. You don’t sell at the bottom, you sell at the top! Day trading is a different story - that very high risk is up to you. But plan to hold for a couple of years for an investment and at least one year because of taxable events.
What captured the attention of many is at the 200th death recorded by 99Bitcoins the BTC price hit the groundbreaking $11,000 mark. Will this happen in the 300th death too? The obituary by 99Bitcoins has stated that Bitcoin has died 62 times this year! While there has been criticism, you cannot deny the number of strong statements from technical wizards like Apple’s co-founder Steve Wozniak saying that ‘only Bitcoin is pure digital gold.’ In the 99 Bitcoin’s obituary section, the oldest death of Bitcoin was on December 15th, 2010 from the publication ‘The Underground Economist’ with the title ‘Why Bitcoin can’t be a currency.’ At the time of the first death according to media, Bitcoin was only worth $0.23. After 300 deaths, Bitcoin is glowing brighter than ever at a price range of $7,312.87 at the time of the latest Forbes article. No doubt Bitcoin is volatile but with that in mind, only invest money you can hold in your investment for a couple of years. And, do research to see what the pattern is.
