ETH Pushes Lower; None of this MattersMay 27, 2018After spending the last few days hovering between $580-610, ETH looks to be dropping this morning.

With such rapid growth since mid-April it makes sense for some pullbacks along the way. This latest downward movement was crypto-wide, impacting all major coins.

None of them have been more expensive than the tax lesson. No matter what your politics are we can all agree taxes suck.
