### $Canadian Market:

Remember 365 days ago I blogged on this when Bitcoin closed out 2016 at $1320 $CAD?

Though the markets never really close, I consider 10-12 pm EST where I live close of day, and or when my last market post or watch of the day happens.  

We close out 2017 at about $18,520 CAD for the day (high)

-- That means  we have gained 14.03X growth in a year.  Remember that is 14 TIMES --- not 14 %.

I have blogged a ton on price updates and trends, we all know the highs in $CAD BTC price was as high as $25k CAD on Dec. 16th,  until the recent big pullbacks / corrections. 

Same charting via BitcoinWisdom.com/Quadriga showing the dramatic last month:

### Bitcoin $USD Market:

--



The trends and % gains / losses follow the Canadian market very closely.  There has always seemed to be a slight % of premium for Bitcoin in Canada.

Bitstamp chart showing the last 25 days or so where it NEARLY touched the $20k USD mark for a crazy ATH before the pullbacks.

###### Please note -- I will have limited internet access for awhile -- so PLEASE do not be upset that I cannot reply right away, or to everyone.  I am dealing with some changes, and will have limited time online and will be happy if I get a few blog posts up a week.  

###### This has really upset some people but I do not force my opinions on others, or need to communicate every detail of my life or issues, most people do not care anyways. I invested around 10 hours or more a day on Steemit most of my first 13 mths here, I just do not have that time in my life right now, and that includes for replies and voting/curation.

###### I have done my best, sorry if you do not understand like some are clearly having a problem with. It's a blogging platform, and I will do my best at everything, and to keep blogging.          

###### Carry On.
