Nowadays, if you are interested in gambling, it’s hard to say you have never heard of cryptocurrency.

Hope you had an excellent weekend. It’s become a bit of a rarity lately while bitcoin was sitting flat, but now that crypto is in a bull market again, I suppose it makes sense to see some volatility over the weekend.
