Our Origin

In late 2010, when bitcoin trading began in earnest, we realized that there was no guidance of any kind for bitcoin traders. After posting a few bitcoin charts on the bitcointalk.org forum, we received requests from both big and small traders alike to help with forecasting and analysis. And so it began.

The need for insight and guidance regarding cryptocurrency is much higher than in conventional financial markets. The lack of traditional valuation metrics and the uniqueness of the asset itself makes it highly susceptible to broad swings and large cycles that are unheard of in the legacy markets. Most people who come into bitcoin trading have very little market experience, and hear about it at the height of a bubble, therefore we thought it important to give market participants an objective voice of reason to help cut through the cacophony of noise surrounding this new asset class.
