When we hear about revolutionization, we may think of public policy, trade agreements, immigration, and big business.

Bitcoin (BTC) is holding support above $40,000, which could stabilize the pullback and encourage short-term buyers to return. However, upside appears to be limited given strong resistance around $47,000-$50,000. The cryptocurrency was trading around $42,000 at press time and is down 2% over the past 24 hours.

A piece by Arts Professional in late-2017 exposed…
