Crypto Monitor Episode 7: What Does Good Regulation Look Like?
By Adam Sharp on May 11, 2018
One of the biggest things preventing institutional investors from entering the crypto market is regulations. They’re itching to get in, though. This week, we found out the parent company of the New York Stock Exchange is planning on building a bitcoin trading platform for big investors. Goldman Sachs is also in the process of building a crypto trading desk. This institutional money won’t arrive in force until the regulatory situation – and related infrastructure – gets sorted out.
Crypto Market Update
By Adam Sharp on May 4, 2018
Crypto markets have rebounded nicely over the last few weeks. I believe one of the strongest drivers of this uptrend is the expectation that institutional investors, such as endowments, pensions and wealth managers, will make a major move into crypto this year. In order for this to happen, the infrastructure…
Airdrop Recommendation: Bread (BRD)
By Adam Sharp on April 27, 2018
Editor’s Note: This is my first airdrop recommendation. As a reminder, an airdrop is a tool utilized by cryptocurrency projects to increase awareness and use. To clarify, I am recommending that you take advantage of the free airdrop (instructions below). I’m not recommending that you buy the token. Anyone can…
Market and Website Update
By Adam Sharp on April 20, 2018
Crypto markets are experiencing a nice bounce. But before we get into the details, a bit of housekeeping. We’ve made some minor upgrades to the Crypto Asset Strategies website.

[BREAKING] Bittrex Just Reopened
By Adam Sharp on April 13, 2018
After a four-month pause, Bittrex has reopened to new users. This means that anyone who was unable to register for an account since December now has the opportunity to do so. Remember, Bittrex is one of my two primary recommended exchanges for altcoin purchases.
New Recommendation – High Performance Blockchain (HPB)
By Adam Sharp on April 10, 2018
Note: This is a speculative recommendation on a small ($91 million market cap) coin. It operates out of China, so there is some additional regulatory risk. This crypto project is called High Performance Blockchain, and I believe it offers more than enough upside to justify the risk. I recommend going…
New Recommendation – Delayed Until Tomorrow
By Adam Sharp on April 9, 2018
Adam here. I wanted to give you a heads-up that our next recommendation has been delayed slightly. The write-up is nearly finished, but I expect to get it to you tomorrow, rather than today as we originally planned. My apologies for the delay. As a reminder, this will be the…

Portfolio and Market Update
By Adam Sharp on March 30, 2018
Times like these are what make crypto a mental challenge. It’s hard to hold or buy when markets are diving across the board. It gets easier once you’ve been through a few cycles, but for those of you who are new, this must seem awful. So it’s critical to keep…

By Adam Sharp on March 21, 2018
Crypto market news has been mixed over the last few weeks. On the positive side, billionaire PayPal founder Peter Thiel doubled down on bitcoin in a recent CNBC appearance. He stated that bitcoin would be the “online equivalent of gold,” and that bitcoin was a “hedge of sorts against…
The ICO Landscape Is Changing
By Adam Sharp on March 8, 2018
When I launched this service last year, I planned on having a mix of exchange-traded coin and ICO recommendations. Since then, however, the ICO landscape has changed… dramatically. The recent market pullback has cooled enthusiasm, but that’s not the primary problem. The bigger culprit is the fact that a large…

Price: $76 Market cap: $522 million Circulating coins: 6.8 million Total coins: 21 million Type: Cryptocurrency Recommended exchange: Bittrex Alternative exchange: Poloniex Decred (DCR) is a pure cryptocurrency play, and I consider it one of the few legitimate bitcoin challengers. The name Decred stands for decentralized credits. And this coin’s…
