 Buy & Hold Bitcoin

Many of those who have Bitcoins made a big profit a year ago by just holding the coins within their wallets. This really is still the simplest way to purchase the cryptocurrency phenomenon. There are lots of opportunities for further growth and more price surges in coming your way. Which means there remains a definite possibility that the coins could keep in increasing in value as fast (or even faster) as they've been up till now. If that takes place then simply buying and holding would end up being a really profitable investment opportunity indeed for this year.

 But obviously there's also a really real possibility that the purchase price could crash and you might lose most of the money invested. If you never mind holding your cash on a trade as opposed to in a budget all on your own computer then the good tip is to keep your coins within an account on a website such as for instanceBter, which pays a tiny amount of interest on all deposits.

We stand by the brave men of the nation’s army any day and every day. Our prayers are with them and their families. Indeed these men at the battlefront are the only remaining vestiges of patriotism in this nation. They are making the ultimate sacrifice and losing their lives fighting a war created by free roaming Nigerian politicians, military Chiefs and friends of the Presidency. What greater sacrifice can a man make than to fight and die to protect the masses while the ruling Cabal associate with the sponsors of the enemy and regard them as their “siblings,” as President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan did to the dismay of Nigerians and international observers.

Many questions have arisen questioning Europe's ability to act independently after US Vice President Joe Biden recently announced that the US had forced EU countries to impose economic sanctions against Russia despite the fact that many of them were opposed to such measures.

The sanctions have more negatively impacted the EU economy, rather than Russia’s, as Russia has other alternative trade partners in the East and in the South American region, said Paul Craig Roberts, former Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in the Reagan Administration, in an interview to Radio VR. He added that the sanctions could have positive effect on Russia’s economic development as they would make “the [Russian] Government realize that the dependency on Washington and the dependency on Europe is a strategic error of the highest magnitude.”

The possible creation of a training camp for Syrian opposition fighters in the former Soviet republic of Georgia is inefficient for the fight against the Islamic State (IS), Lionel Beehner, Ph.D. candidate in political science at Yale University, has told RIA Novosti.


“It is hard to imagine the Georgians training thousands of Syrian fighters. Most of the training and cooperation will be done clandestinely, given the regional sensitivities and the real threat of ISIS [IS] seeping into the Caucasus … if they are pushed out of northern Syria and Iraq,” Beehner said on Monday.
