Ver has been an outspoken critic of the parent Bitcoin chain for years, saying that Bitcoin

A perfect storm is bringing back memories of December 2017, and this time big money is looking to exit the U.S. dollar. Duck Season? Rabbit Season? No, Alt Season. It’s official. Alt season is here, and non-bitcoin cryptos are doing what they do best: pump. Total crypto markets have seen a surge from $165 billion in March to
