Sharing Spice Tokens on Telegram and Twitter

At the end of February, news.bitcoin.com reported on BCH token development kicking into high gear and the pace hasn’t stopped since. People have been creating unique tokens using the SLP software with names like dragon ball, steam cash, nazgûl, wonton, crown coin, and someone’s made tokens for about 20 of the most popular cryptocurrency networks as well. BCH proponents have also participated in a social experiment and ‘torch passing’ ceremony that used a single non-divisible token called the SLP Torch.

More recently, however, BCH developers have created a Telegram tipping bot that can tip SLP tokens to users within the hosted channel. The cryptocurrency news outlet Coinspice and its associated Telegram channel implemented the tipping bot so people can tip one another in spice tokens. The user simply @’s the Telegram bot called ‘Spicetokens’ and gives them a command to tip a user a number of tokens. Scrolling through the Coinspice channel of 397 members shows the Spicetokens bot is very active. The bot is also available on Twitter and some users have been sharing spice tokens across a few Twitter threads.

Bchpls.io Payment Platform Adds SLP Token Support

In May of 2018, news.bitcoin.com reported on the point-of-sale (PoS) service Bchpls.io which allows brick n’ mortar and online merchants to accept BCH in a noncustodial fashion. The application is free and there are no servers needed as all it takes is an internet connection and two devices (cashier and customer) to utilize the Bchpls system. On March 13, the Bchpls developer announced the platform now supports SLP tokens and released a video demonstration of the feature in action.

Overall, the use cases and the ideas tied to all the tokens created so far have been getting more robust over time. With Telegram and Twitter bots and the latest Bchpls support, applications like these will likely add a lot more real-world use to the BCH token economy. With the community discussing these tokens and creating an abundance of fun coins to share, it seems BCH supporters appreciate the coin creation concept and the possibility of a thriving token economy.

Bitcoin’s $500 Price Drop Sets Community Abuzz

bitcoin prices dropped yesterday from $2800 down to $2460, sparking concern and speculation across the cryptocurrency community.


The large drop in value has come alongside the largest bitcoin Bull run in the currencies history, it caused panicked posts on social media with one Reddit user posting;

“What the hell happened with the drop from 2800 to 2460?!!!!!” – TakinBackMyLove, a distressed Reddit user.

Many other new bitcoin users, drawn to cryptocurrency investment by the current upward cycle of the market, also voiced their concerns while bitcoin veterans remained calm, having seen this all before, and much worse.

Welcome to bitcoin

The drop follows three straight days of price increases for bitcoin as the price climbed from $2000 to $2800, which was an all-time high per coin. In financial markets, it is not uncommon to see corrections like this after relatively large gains over a short period of time, which really does bring a touch of sanity to a frenzied market. That the decrease was not more substantial, given what has overall been a very large rise, should give investors comfort.

Bitcoin Historical Prices

Past Volatility

bitcoin has been historically famous for its massive volatility, with its price declining by several orders of magnitude in just the space of minutes. In August 2011 the price dropped by almost 50% from $13.50 down to just $7 in the period of 7 hours. However, the coin is also famous for its sudden gains too, as bitcoin prices began hitting $80 dollars.

Bitcoin price drop August 2013

Another example is the 2013 crash, often attributed to the downfall of the infamous Japanese based exchange, Mt. Gox, when the site went down it took many Investors coins with it. bitcoin took its time recovering, and cryptocurrency as a whole entered a bear market.  bitcoin has made slow and steady gains since 2015, however, it is only since March that the gains have started to rise at a disproportionately increased rate.

It comes as no surprise, that in the wake of such massive gains, that bitcoin fever seems to have struck again.

Still Bullish

With daily candles mainly Green, all signs still point to the coin remaining Bullish and, at the current time of this writing, it has since started climbing back towards $2,550.
