Happy (belated) New Year! I intended to get this post up earlier, but I’ve been under the weather lately. Now that we’re about a week into 2018, it’s probably a good time to talk about what’s in store for cryptocurrency as this decade winds down. I see daily questions from readers about my opinions on what […]

Happy Holidays!
December 23rd, 2017 
CryptoBadger Just wanted to take a minute and wish everyone a happy holiday season! I’ve heard from quite a few of you over the past couple months, including some folks that started following my blog back in 2013. A few of you have indicated that you’re now crypto-millionaires, which is incredible. While I haven’t been able […]
PSA: don’t store your cryptocurrency in online exchanges!
June 1st, 2017 CryptoBadger I just read this sobering tale about a guy who lost $8,000+ worth of cryptocurrency after being hacked. I’ve said it before, but this bears repeating: don’t trust anyone to hold your cryptocurrency for you. Online exchanges aren’t banks, and leaving your digital currency under somebody else’s control leaves you vulnerable to hacks like this one. I wrote […]
Is this another cryptocurrency bubble?
May 24th, 2017 CryptoBadger No doubt most of you have been following the explosive increase in cryptocurrency valuations over the past month. The price of one ether has risen about 400% in the past 30 days. The value of Bitcoin has doubled over the same period, with a single coin trading at an all-time high of nearly $2,500. Litecoin […]
Apologies for the lack of updates
February 13th, 2014 CryptoBadger Just a quick note that I’ve been dealing with the death of somebody close to me over the past several weeks, and updates to the site have suffered as a result. I should be able to get back into a semi-regular schedule starting next week. If you’ve sent me a message at any point in […]
One million!
December 15th, 2013 CryptoBadger This little site had its millionth visitor today, and I just wanted to take a minute to say thank you to everyone for all of the kind words that I’ve received via comments and email over the past few months. Hearing from hundreds of people around the world that are passionate about cryptocurrency has made […]
My custom mining rigs are temporarily unavailable
November 27th, 2013 CryptoBadger Just a quick note that I’ve temporarily disabled the ordering process for my custom mining rigs. I’ve had quite a few orders come in lately and I need a few days to catch up. Once I clear out the backlog, I’ll re-open the ordering process, so check back in a few days. Sorry for the […]
Expect a correction on these runaway cryptocurrency valuations
November 27th, 2013 CryptoBadger It’s been exciting watching litecoin go from ~$10 to ~$30 over the past 48 hours, and seeing bitcoin punch through $1000 today. But I’d urge everyone to not make any rash decisions about dumping large amounts of cash into crypto, with the hopes of riding this crazy train to riches. The current growth is mostly […]
Please be reachable if you purchase one of my custom mining rigs!
November 18th, 2013 CryptoBadger Just a quick note that I have been unable to reach a couple of the people that have purchased a custom mining rig from me over the past few days. I need to be able to reach buyers so that I can gather mining pool worker credentials and some other information in order to set […]
On mining profitability
November 15th, 2013 CryptoBadger With the price of litecoin and bitcoin on the rise, I’ve received a tremendous amount of email over the past couple weeks from people wanting to know whether or not it’s “too late” to get into mining. Or how soon one can expect to break even on a new mining rig purchase. Or what my […]
