TBI - January 2, 2019

Happy 2019! It’s great to be back with the team after some much needed R&R with friends and family. We wish you a happy, healthy, and productive new year.

Last year, I thought I blew people’s “top 10 predictions lists” out of the water with "95 Theses” for crypto in 2018. A few proved wrong, but the post has, overall, aged well.

Which is fortunate because it ended up being my most popular of all time.

Now there’s already been a number of very good crypto prediction pieces for 2019, including one yesterday from Arjun Balaji, who dunked on me by producing a solid, lengthy set of crypto theses for the year a day earlier than my own. (Damn you, Arjun!)

I clearly need to up my game, and tighten my 2018 outlook.
