Question
Hi i have a few valuble coins but my question is how rapidly is the price riseing? I would tell you more but im not sure how much to trust this company no ofence.

Answer
Hello, Bill, values of coins can and indeed do go up but on the other hand, values can also go down, like with any assets (such as stocks or bonds or houses etc).  Even if we knew what specific coins you were speaking of, no one could tell you with certainty whether the price would rise in the future and if so how rapidly.  If we knew what was going to happen in the future, we would act on that information and make a lot of money.  Good luck, Jim Lawniczak
