Happy Saturday Folks! Last week we saw Bitcoin gain over $3K and the price was heading toward $28 as the week was coming to a close; Fear and Greed index was about 64 and the bank failure news was really pumping the asset class. This week was no different as Bitcoin continue to push even in face of the 25 bps rate hike but the Fed sounded a bit dovish due to the bank failures.

The best performing asset in the past 7 days is $XRP believe it or not - up 16%; ranked #6 on Coinmarketcap.com. Fear and Greed Index remains the same as last Saturday a whopping 64. Most covered news this week was is the SECs bold attempt to come after Coinhbase, one of the most compliant and regulated exchanges in the industry. Podcast of the Week is The Wolf of All Streets with KC Chohan. Let's review the week shall we?

Bottom line: As I type Bitcoin is trading at $27,490.39 and for the week (M-F) Bitcoin lost $273.95. Basically it remained flat for a week which isn't bad giving all the crap that is going down right now. There was a news article this week that said if you were DCAing since ATH you would be up 10%. So, keep buying the dip, be smart, stay safe, stack sats, and HODL as "Matty Sats" would say!
