It has been an interesting weekend in the world of cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is again above $100,000, the question now is it going to stay there? I sure wouldn't mind, but at the same time I would like to pick up a few more chunks at cheaper prices if it does sink again. Then we all got to see the Trump and Melania tokens on the Solano chain. I would have loved to been an insider before they launched because there was a lot of money made, although I think they will be a simple Pump and Dump.
Hive is hanging in just above the forty cent mark still, it seems to have some decent support there. I do enjoy seeing the higher Hive prices but the only downfall is it slows down my HP growth just a bit. You can't have your cake and eat it too I suppose. I would rather see it valuable and stack slower to be honest!
This past week I was browsing around looking for some good deals on Goldbacks. I've shared a few of them in the last few weeks, they're essentially gold in the form of a very artistic fiat like bill. While I was looking on the JM Bullion website I ran into something I hadn't seen before so that always perks my interest. It's called a Goldnote, which is a very artistic look fiat bill, but instead of gold being deposited onto the bill itself, it comes with a one gram gold bar encased in protective plastic. Plus it had golden eagles as part of the art and I love animal coins and bills! Have a look:

About the Goldnote
From JM Bullion
It turns out that these are JM Bullion exclusives and only 1,000 were made. And then there was the bad news, all out of stock. So I hit eBay looking for one, not one to be found anywhere. I did run across a similar looking product called KaratPay, but no Goldnotes. So I think my new quest is to see if I can find one to pick up. I'm now on the list to be notified if one shows up in stock as well at JM Bullion.
I love the eagles on on the note, as well as all the artistic details. They put a lot of work into the design and you get a one gram gold bar to boot. I really like what they're selling, if only there were some left to buy!

What beautiful birds! These eagles live in the northern hemisphere in North America, Asia, North Africa and Europe. They have dark brown feathers with some golden plumage around their necks. The are commonly used in falconry due to their hunting prowess and hunt rabbit, squirrels, and marmots. They have excellent vision, as a matter of fact much better visual acuity than the human eye due to having a much clearer cornea. This adaptation surely came about from survival of fittest. The eagle who sees the best, eats the best!
Another interesting fact is that they are monogamous, paring together for years or possibly for life. Fortunately, they aren't a threatened species, but in areas with dense human habitation they are rarely seen. They used to be seen in the eastern part of the US and into the midwestern part of the country, but as human moved in they moved out. Likely from hunters killing them off, a story that repeats itself throughout history. Just ask the dodo bird...
That is just about it for today. I love it when I get to share some nice precious metal items with animals on them, because it's just as much fun to talk about the animals as it is the metals. I hope you enjoyed the post today, please feel free to leave any questions or comments below. As always I want to thank everyone for all of your support, it's deeply appreciated. Have a great week everyone!
