...and then drew lines into the future trying to guess when the next big price spike would happen and how high the price would go. The price of Bitcoin in December 2015 was $325 and I based on my stupid photoshop comps I predicted that Bitcoin would hit $3,000 by Dec 25th, 2016.

I showed this to a few of my quant-programmer friends who shrugged and told me told me I probably had no idea what I was doing. Hahah. Much to my own surprise, my prediction ended up being pretty close! The price didn't spike until June of 2017, so it took 18 months instead of 12, but the price did go up 8x to $2,800!

This was also the first time I'd ever seen Romanesco. I was super into learning about Mandelbroit and fractal, self-similar shapes in nature. My mind was totally blown. I couldn't stop looking at it.
