## Makes me feel a bit better

After weeks of seeing the price go down, this makes me feel better. I know that Bitshares has great potential, but it's good to get a little market validation every once in a while.

## Trading on the DEX

I've been learning how to trade crypto-currencies on the Bitshares Decentralized Exchange (DEX) for the last month or so. Amazing how much you can learn when you put your mind to it. My daily profit has been good, often exceeding my expectations. I'm trading to gain more Bitshares, so I was quite happy to see the price boost this morning.

## Wanting to spread the word

I've been talking with people about crypto-currencies and also about Bitshares. I will probably be speaking for a small group in the coming month. If you are curious about Bitshares and trading and would like some help getting started, just leave me a comment below and we'll connect. I'll do my best to help.

### Thanks for reading!
