I like Uber as a service. But you shouldn't make the argument of 10 years ago. They started in 2009, depends on smartphones to use the app. If it started 10 years beforehand it would be 1999, they wouldn't even be able to really s

This is exactly what happened with ETH few months back on GDAX. 300 to 200, crashes the site in seconds, triggered pretty much all stop losses and margin calls. When down to a penny.

Never even heard of Iron Yard, being funded by Apollo (U of Pohoenix) makes me think it was nothing but a cash grab, likely same as the reviews of Berkeley Extension school’s bootcamp. This is a business where poor level of service sinks a
