Business Maverick: Bitcoin Climbs Above $11,000 as Memories of Popped Bubble Fade By Bloomberg

“The bounce-back of Bitcoin has been fairly extraordinary,” said George McDonaugh, chief executive and co-founder of London-based blockchain and cryptocurrency investment firm KR1 Plc. “Money didn’t leave the asset behind, it just sat on the sidelines waiting to get back in.”

The largest cryptocurrency had a furious run higher in late 2017 that culminated with a top above $19,500, before an almost-as-relentless move downward over much of 2018. It languished around the $3,300 to $4,100 range for several months.

Just implementing existing plans will mark a ‘revolution’ in the state — Patel | Business | M&GIn an interview with the M&G after Sona, Ebrahim Patel outlined what he believes will be different about the new administration’s efforts to boost an economy that is shrinking — by 3.2% in the first quarter of this year — while unemployment rises. ...this idiot Ebrahim Patel has been 'trying' to 'develop' SA's economy - as Minister of Economic Development - for the past 10 years. He is one of the useless ANC clowns directly and personally responsible for SA's shrinking economy and the end of foreign investment. FireHim! This communist will lead us further into the 💩hole!! Venezuela here we come Patel has been in charge of economic development for years. There has benn no economic development in that time. To believe the man who oversaw the the decline can be the one to oversee the revival is ludicrous! It’s obvious he hasn’t got the capability!

State capture: 'My business was hijacked,' says woman who scored lucrative airport dealThe state capture inquiry on Saturday heard how millions of rand flowed through a small North West company irregularly put in charge of ground handling services at the Mafikeng and Philanesberg airports in 2015. This testimony is making me sick. I am so ashamed to be a S.African right now because the media is dominated by corruption in GOVERNMENT at private sector. Maybe we must change the name to SKELEM AFRICA. atleast the suits our country. It is both sad and scary to hear how easy it is for crooks to take advantage of gullible people. Equally scary is to hear how many gullible people there are who don't think that something is not right, but will go with it because they'll get some extra cash.
