CCJ - NYSE CCO - TSX Powering the grid Cameco Corp. Mining Uranium stock likely recovers in breakout of FIB retracements 0.5 (recent down) and 0.382 (recent up) and near 9.81 or drop below 9.50 to 8.95-9.25 resistance. Point of interest: * Uranium prices beaten down since 2011 Fukashima Reactor melt-down and back-up generator cooling failures from psunami hitting Japan. * Japan shuts down all of the 32 Nuclear Reactors to assure public safety and clean-up causing global Uranium (Ur) prices to tumble to where it now is. * Nuclear energy is still a paid for and quite reliable energy source with proper safety measures, which Japan now has and plans to restart. * No. Amer. power also relies on nuclear power, which Pres. Trump will not import from other countries supporting demand. * This is one of several plays, which is safe haven mid to large-cap mining stock and away from volatility (VIX) moneyballers like, as VIX up near 5% each of last 2 days. Viewers come to own conclusions. Like, share, comment.

A Larger Correction Might Be Underway for VALEThe Cycle Wave 5 top (and Supercycle Wave 1 top) was most probably on the week of the 14th of May 2018 (please reffer to related idea). NYSE:VALE now seems to be on an Intermediate Wave C which is part of the Cycle Wave A down. If this count is correct we should still expect Intermediate waves B and C. Only after Cycle Wave C, the last part of Supercycle Wave 2, should we see the hallowed Supercycle Wave 3. \o/ Best idea for now is to step aside from the stock and wait for signs Supercycle Wave 3 is around the corner...

Ethereum death window, based on fundamental analysis Hi i hope to have good time Today i want to calculate ETH death window based on fundamental analysis! what's the meaning of death window ? i called lowest price and lowest time period after that all of Ethereum network crash and dead, after this price mining is not profitable and all the miner switch off their machines . lets calculate this price: All of us know ETH network generate new block after 14.5 seconds and today block rewards is approximately near 3 Eth. I would like to estimate how much miner paid for electricity to generate a single Ethereum for this purpose we need to chose sample and formal miner devices and total network hashrate . base on my experience from mining optimum mining rig with 6 GPU ( optimum GPU card ) cards are able to generate 180 MH with using 1.2 Kwh electricity, from last published idea i found average electricity rate is 0.1189 $/Kwh . ========================================================== how many mining rig we need to build today Ethereum networks ? total Ethereum network speed is 287,486.80 GH/s ( refer to etherscan.io) so we need 287486800 MH/s / 180 MH/s = 1,597,149 mining rigs this bunch of devices is using 1,916,579 Kwh, during an hour Ethereum network generate near 757 ETH today a single ETH cost = total eth network electricity * electricity cost / total ETH during an hour = 301 $ ========================================================= i will update this post when we are moving in downtrend again.

A dangerous descentThe price was able to overcome the next level without problems and continues to decline. At the current time the next level of support is the mark of 6.200. Given the fall in the value of the cryptocurrency, mining becomes less profitable and may soon become unprofitable. The only winners in the fall are traders. In case of falling volumes of mining, prices may again rush down. Since our technical indicators point for a sale, we believe that at the current moment it is worthwhile to take short positions and consider the point for fixing of the profit at the mark of 6.200.

BMN Long EWTBUSHVELD MINERALS • BMN trading near all time highs • Both Wave 3 and Wave iii are in motion • Momentum studies positive Currently trading near all time highs, Bushveld Minerals (BMN) still has room to continue higher. A rally begun with a gap after a year long consolidation period. With a high at 24.50 reached in May, BMN saw a correction back to the 17.10 level - finding support. The Elliott Wave 1 subdivided into a Minute impulse wave. Wave iv retraced 38.2% of the Wave iii advance, stalling inline with the 17.10 support level. Wave iii and Wave v tops saw bearish divergence, warning that a corrective phase was near. Wace C saw bullish divergence, again, giving a potential warning that the correction is over, and a new impulse move was about to occur. More recently however, BMN has had a solid advance, breaking above a psychological level of 20.00, and breaking above the May high of 24.50. It has given back some of its gains however, retracing and holding the 21.70 level. This has formed a new wave i and ii count equalling Wave 3 of higher degree. With BMN just hovering below 27.00 it has much more room to rally as it is in Wave 3 of both degrees. Though not always the longest wave, it has potential to move to 32.00. This level is the point at which Wave 1 = Wave 3. The RSI favours the bullish picture and reinforces the potential for a move higher. A possible retracement to the uptrend line is also possible and would be a great opportunity to go Long. Longs can also be entered at the break above 27.00 if a more conservative approach is preffered.

STORJ the future of decentralized Digital storage [BTFD]I featured STORJ in my post from early Nov'18 was a huge profit maker and one to watch for this year after a good rally in last few days we can entertain some good long positions for this active coin which actually has a working product... (one of the few in crypto) retraced from last major highs, lets meet these targets before we try for the ATH (which was based on a very very well timed token swap) If bitcoin comes down again to lows then we might have a new floor but looking at the COP (Cycle of Power) indy it still needs some more upwards momentum, something we may see in the coming months if the markets goes more bullish on alts HOW TO TRADE? Aggressive traders would start buying up on the pull back, the recent rally hit the 0.786 level and dumped from there creating a possible pullback to watch More cautious traders will wait for the fib to be broken and move up into the next gann fan area for confirmation of a bull trend red line is the baseline trend good trades, plz tip or leave a comment if this or other trades we select make u profits, even if its for a beer/smoke all welcomed more on STORJ.... Storj is decentralized cloud storage that applies blockchain technology for processing transactions that are entirely safe, secure and done without third parties interfering. It is the first decentralized, end-to-end encrypted cloud storage that utilizes blockchain technology and cryptography to guard your files. Currently, STORJ is trading at $0.515 per unit. It is predicted that by the end of this year there will be a hike in the value of STORJ and it will rise to $1.27. But we cannot entirely rely on these values because fluctuations can happen at any time. coinpriceprediction.net

$BRVRF Enters Into Agreement with Global Satellite IntegrationBlue River Resources First Step in the process of integration forward was a 30% stake in GSIL a private British Columbia Company based in Vancouver, BC. Looking forward to the next upcoming updates from this soon to be conglomerate. www.otcmarkets.com Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - July 9, 2018) - Blue River Resources Ltd. (TSXV: BXR ) (OTC Pink: BRVRF) (FSE: 0BL) (the "Company" or "Blue River") ( www.blueriv.com ) is pleased to announce that it has entered into an agreement with Global Satellite Integration Ltd. ("GSIL") which agreement provides for the acquisition by Blue River of a 30% interest in the share capital of GSIL for total cash consideration of $50,000. GSIL is a private British Columbia company based in Vancouver, BC. GSIL provides satellite bandwidth and related services to mining companies. The acquisition includes a participation right for Blue River to retain its post-acquisition pro-rata interest in GSIL should GSIL issue further equity as well as the grant to Blue River of a right of first refusal by the two current shareholders of GSIL. The transaction has been accepted for filing by the TSX Venture Exchange. orders.newsfilecorp.com GSIL and its management have extensive experience working with mining companies and government to provide Internet and telecom access to mining companies regardless of their location. Blue River recognizes that stakeholders in mining such as the local government and the surrounding community of a mine site or large exploration site require some level of corporate social responsibility as part of gaining the "social license" to explore and exploit their natural resources. GSIL can bring the internet to these communities, regardless of their location, which can enhance Blue River's relationship with local communities, where Blue River could conduct exploration or mining activities. Blue River believes that having an ownership in this expertise will enhance its ability to bid for or acquire mineral concessions and the required exploration or mining permits in rural areas of the world. Blue River's main focus remains mineral exploration. The Company continues to explore its Castle Copper Project near Princeton, BC, on which the Company has recently received a NI-43-101 report recommending a two phased exploration program. ON BEHALF OF THE BOARD BLUE RIVER RESOURCES LTD. Griffin Jones President, Director For further information contact: Griffin Jones Tel: (604) 682-7339 www.Blueriv.com Neither the TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release.

Vancouver, British Columbia--(Newsfile Corp. - June 12, 2018) - Blue River Resources Ltd . (TSXV: BXR ) (OTC Pink: BRVRF) (FSE: 0BL) (the "Company") announces that it has received a NI 43-101 report on its 100% owned Castle Copper Project located near Princeton BC. The report was written by Mr. Sean Butler, P. Geo., and recommends a two phased exploration program consisting of IP geophysics and soil geochemistry in phase 1 and contingent on positive results in Phase 1, 2000 meters of NQ diamond drilling in Phase 2. The area of interest that the exploration program will focus on is the Christian Creek zone where hole no. BXR 11-9 returned 198 meters of 0.04 % copper from 30 meters to 228 meters. Several companies are exploring this region for porphyry copper deposits from Copper Mountain Mining and Sego Resources to the south, to Antofagasta Minerals to the north and Kaizen Resources in Aspen Grove BC. The Company is reviewing additional opportunities in the resource sector as well as the non-resource sector. Neither TSX Venture Exchange nor its Regulation Services Provider (as that term is defined in the policies of the TSX Venture Exchange) accepts responsibility for the adequacy or accuracy of this release. So far I have not observed any dilution and the company does not currently have any dilutive convertibles or aggressive debt. The company is clean and continues to be accumulated in anticipation of further updates which some have said could be very substantial. This is a Long term hold for me, around 2 years. I anticipate a PPS of $10 by then given the current Share Structure.

Antminer S9 ROI: Bitmain vs Retail over 1, 1.5 & 2 yrsThis is in addition to my previous chart on miner roi for different Antminer models. The S9 is the only model making a profit now and is the only sha256 miner currently used by Bitmain according to news articles. My previous chart only looked at ROI for retail miners. Here I show estimates for Bitmain (area plots) itself who pay less for their mining equipment than their customers. I also compare with retail miners (lines). The three lines/areas represent three different amortization periods for mining equipment: over 1 year (green), 1.5 years (blue) or 2 years (purple). The longer the period over which you spread your costs the less dependent you are on BTC price so long as your miner does not become obsolete before the write off period ends. previously I only considered a 1 year write off period. Lastly after some research I determine the average lifespan of a miner is just 1 to 2 years (www.cell.com(18)30177-6). Area plot: Bitmain Line: retail Elec: 0.06 USD/kWh Model: Antminer S9 Hrate: 13.5 TH/s Unit cost: USD 500 (Bitmain), USD 900 (retail) Operating time: 24 hrs/day, 365 days/year see: medium.com see: www.cell.com(18)30177-6

BITMAIN: Antminer S-series Return on Investment (Bitcoin)Chart shows the return on investment of Antminer S-series miners: S1 (yellow): approx released July 2013, power consumption 2 kW/TH/s S3 (purple): approx released June 2014, power consumption 0.71 kW/TH/s S5 (orange): approx released December 2014, power consumption 0.51 kW/TH/s S7 (green): approx released Aug 2015, power consumption 25 kW/TH/s S9 (blue): approx released July 2016, power consumption 0.1 kW/TH/s Red curve is network hash rate (proportional to difficulty). Chart of mining efficiency (TH/s/kW): drive.google.com (blue is actual trend, red is projected continuation of pre-S9 trend) Bitmain has not publicly released any significant efficiency upgrades since July 2016. Innovation at the mining sector's biggest player seems to have stalled. If the exponential trend had continued we should have reached >40 TH/s/kW by Jan 2018, instead we are at 2016 levels. This is either because Bitmain cannot make more efficient ASICS or because they are keeping secret any innovations they have made. Looking at the return on investment (ROI) chart. The white horizontal line is the breakeven line. Anything above is profit. The vertical lines are release dates of the various S-model miners. We see that a new miner is released to the public just when the previous model becomes obsolete. Normally there is a lead time before delivery of several months. Bitmain have not made any announcements regarding an S11. Despite all of this the hash rate is increasing unabated. Have Bitmain been secretly mining with new hardware or have they simply been bringing more S9s online? If they have an S11 why aren't they releasing it?

One More Drop - Bitcoin Panic ZoneBitcoin price is going down for the past 6 months and still is. The price zone between 5,000$ - 6,000$ considered as a safe zone in regards to mining costs, below this price zone mining Bitcoin in most of the countries considered to be not profitable. Having said that, the longer the Bitcoin traded at the 6,000$ price, More and more news about Bitcoin mining and the cost of it started to pop up, and it seems like the media is preparing us for another price drop. All of a sudden the cost of mining Bitcoin was overestimated... I am getting myself ready for the last drop, The panic drop. A drop that will confuse many will wipe many more and will cause panic. My strategy is simple: My Trade Size = X I Buy Half X at 4,900$ (Bitfinex) I Buy The Second Half at 4,500$ (Bitfinex) My Stop Loss = X

BTC never under 5k and this is why !!!!BTC ECONOMIC BASIC There are a lot of speculations that bitcoin would go to 3000... well those who tell you that don't have a clue what they are talking about. Bitcoin/altcoins can be compared to stocks/gold/silver etc. Now some of you will be shouting at me that it is not the same but this is just a example. In this case we take a look at gold. To mine gold you need employees, materials and insurance etc. When you add all those things up you will get a price that you have to earn from selling the gold to at least break even with the costs of mining the gold. This is the same as bitcoin mining. It takes a lot of energy to mine 1 bitcoin and the equipment is also pricey. The average costs to mine 1 bitcoin is 4700 - 4800 dollar. If bitcoin would drop below this price a lot of miners would shut their systems down. Only the big companies would be able to mine with a small profit. We think whales/major investors would never let this happen. If you see the price dropping beneath this price range... sell every single crypto you have because we are going to shut down! This is just some basic economics. If it the costs to mine something are higher than the sold product... why should you do it?

Bitcoin S-curve with Mining History + Qualitative Hasing RateSome assumptions first: Bitcoin follows an S-curve typical of many growing technologies (and sometimes even stocks/indices): Adoption chart The exact gradients / inflexion points of the S-curve shown here is illustrative, as we cannot know its future development. The hashing rate shown here (brown line) is completely illustrative and represents only the changing trend (which has been increasing or constant since 2010). S-curves (which appear as exponential curves in linear charts) indicate a viral exchange of information which is typical of technology adoption and hype (this is where stocks/indices come in etc) In the case of Bitcoin, although the rate of production is supposed to be constant (hence difficulty adjustment) and therefore cannot affect the price, there is a clear relationship between price development and the development of network hashing rate. The hashing rate develops with the evolution of the mining sector from 2010 hobbyist to 2018 industrialist. The next big boom in Bitcoin will take place in conjunction with the next revolution in mining. There are some 4 million Bitcoins still left to mine. The next halving (block reward reduction to 6.25 BTC/block) is probable in summer 2020. But the halving is not necessary in order to start a new growth phase . In fact the previous two halvings occurred half-way through the growth cycle.

NVDA NVIDIA is clearly the next big stock! Move to $279? Hi Guys, NVIDIA has seen a huge rally in the past few weeks and I think there is more gas in the tank to grow even further! Nvidia just reported they made $289 million in graphic card sales to crypto mining, which is great news for not just NVIDIA but for the crypto world as a whole. This clearly shows there is clear support, belief and demand for graphic cards to mine BTC & other coins. In this day and age of IOTs there is a much larger need for big data analysis, machine learning & Artificial intelligence. As AI is the future, Nvidia is the backbone for all the AI processes. I look at Nvidia as the next big stock as its graphics cards will be a touch point with any and every application we build moving forward. To take it a step further, there are blockchain projects like Golem Network that are moving forward with connecting requesters with a network of individual PCs & GPUs to create a super computer that can help with graphics rendering and other machine learning and AI requests. The future is clearly bright for technology as a whole and NVIDIA & Golem sit in the heart of it! Hope that helps and check out my videos on other interesting coins :) www.youtube.com

Griffin Mining Builds MomentumGriffin Mining recently broke through the previous all-time high. It struggled at first as the buyers were trying to gain some ground and as they found their footing, the momentum to the upside kicked in and we may be seeing the beginning of an impulse uptrend. The Daily chart (not shown) is using the 50 simple moving average as support as it makes higher highs. When price hesitated at the previous all-time high some traders may have doubted whether price would continue higher but simply looking at the 50 sma would help to identify it as a support area which would assist price to advance higher. Using simple tools such as moving averages in the correct way will put you in a prime position to take advantage of opportunities in the markets and help to understand market structure. If the first breakout was missed then we just have to be patient for the next opportunity and we must not chase trades. If price pulls back and breaks out again we will have another opportunity to enter. We may also see a a pullback opportunity if price moves down to a support area so either entries would be appropriate depending on your trading style. Any comments or questions, do not hesitate to leave them below. Hit agree if you share our sentiments! Sublime Trading
