9:16 am
is stuff. into it longer trying to get his response than this weekend saying contrary to what the book claims he's mentally strong and not just clever but a genius the book quotes former senior advisor to the us president steve brown and one of the many people close to leave the revolving door last year it was just a few the claims in this book it's written that trump found the white house scary in order to titian of t.v. screens and a lock of his bedroom door goes on to say it was the us leader himself who was behind leaks of personal information and it revealed to the trunk enjoys eating cheeseburgers in bed there's a thought samir khan takes a look at why the book is so popular. readers have been promised an inside look into the q.c.'s scandals of the trumpet ministration and liberals all over the country have flocked to bookstores to get their hands on a copy and president trump's lawyers even tried to block the book's publication which made it even more sought after so in this small bookshop we're talking record numbers they had eighty four copies just this morning and they were sold out within

9:18 am
trey's trumped in a negative light but with all the excitement surrounding the book everyone seems to have forgotten the last time this happened the infamous trumped us year that's now practically synonymous with fake news but also fair in times of war well at least in the media war against trump sami al-haj on our team washington d.c. . and legal analysts long all told us why this is money from heaven from the mainstream media this weekend. nobody cares except the people in the mainstream media who can now focus on it they don't have to do any research they don't have to do any heavy lifting all they have to do is pick out the particulars portions that they like it's a rehash of the same story it's not substantive it doesn't deal with any of the problems that really affect the country or the world it's easy it's easy to digest law hang me for oh it's perfect for them what effect is it going to have absolutely
9:19 am
nothing the people who hate trump hate him the people who love trump love him now there's going to change. it's a story that's going to run and run on this one two bit coin the roller coaster ride seems to be on the way of progress and after a near forty percent slump recently it's currently around the sixteen thousand dollar mark after those highs of twenty last year here's a quick reminder if you can bear the journey so far. bitcoin has hit a financial milestone not reached in almost four centuries it's taken over the title of biggest bubble in history for what was known as choose mania in the netherlands. value has surged by around sixty times in the last three years that's considerably faster than shoot bulbs in the seventeenth century which were at one point worth ten years of a skilled craftsman. back then prices were driven by greed or
9:20 am
a fear of missing out but as more people bought into the bulbs for quick profits a flurry of sales collapsed the price left many with crippling debts but cohen is being called the digital of the twenty first century as the same pattern emerges that fear of missing out in new investors piling in critics say the perceived value of the currency like the church is being counted out of thin air the ever growing army of bitcoin believe is sorry it's here to stay operational market in full flow around the clock and new places all over the world ready to accept the crypto currency as payment even a church in london is happy to accept donations of the virtual kind with the size of the bitcoin market already set passing some countries economies new zealand included influential banks are being left behind but as history shows us boom is usually followed by bust so is bitcoin about to wilt. as the say you pays your
9:21 am
money you take a chance for some people have struck it rich of course with virtual currency there's. internet entrepreneurs the whirlwind of vos twins there must a billion dollar fortune than this guy is teenage a millionaire after investing a small sum from his grandma or a few years ago and the courses that mysterious man who invented all the first place is a very one of the pocket reportedly holds about seventeen billion dollars worth but it's not all up to has not been plain sailing for everyone here are some sob stories as one man who threw away thousands of bitcoin with his hard drive broke back in twenty thirteen thinking they were worthless because it was a different time than time moves quickly famously a man paid ten thousand big coin for toupet says a year or two ago but that caveman suggestion and there's this man jailed for money laundering after he sold his bit calling to a person involved in illegal drugs you've got to be careful out there for more the pros and cons neil harvey was joined by two heavy hitters in the field. i am sure it is awful in fact it's probably the biggest bubble i've ever seen in my career as
9:22 am
an investor and i've seen quite a few bubbles and i'm familiar with the psychology that surrounds them you know big quite took a rocket ship up and it's going to come down even faster because it is not a bubble because it actually is the pin that's the pin that's popping the legacy financial systems bubble. over a printing of money. over valuation of a stock the beauty of it the supporters say stay centralized it's everything that banks know the vid coin itself is not to take knology could be the reward but you don't need big to have a block chain there are all these other cryptocurrency is that have block chains and they don't use big corn and you can use block change for anything about the fundamental consensus the logic of what she does in a way that large is the largest blocks it is the only one that matters the one that does the most now it doesn't the most people the right is the one that's most trustworthy you know the small if you've got a blockade in your pocket and not have good sense of what model algorithm work meaning you don't have any minors and you don't have any consensus that doesn't
9:23 am
mean a thing that's a really really slow data books what and that's what it is but what is it what is the value what is the inherent value of a bit coy what it what can you do with the big quite to make it worth seventeen thousand dollars. well i'll leave you with. the next one is in theory you meant to be fighting fit to the supposed but these soldiers of most shelled if spain fighting fought right now they would put on a crash diet of written after the military feared they damage the units reputation of being a tad too portly. has
