In crypto world, weekends are delicious. Well, they are delicious in any world, but the kind of deliciousness they have in the crypto universe is special. 

Take last one, for instance. In what was, probably, the biggest pump and dump move in the crypto universe ever (MtGox and BTC-E left aside) Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin fought for almost 2 days. The result: $17 billions made and lost in less than 2 hours. If you don't know what this represent, well, it's [Bosnia and Hertzegovina PIB](https://steemit.com/bitcoin/@dragosroua/how-to-lose-usd17-billions-in-less-than-2-hours-bitcoin-cash-whales-take-a-break-and-selling-begins) for one year. Made and lost in less than 2 hours.

So, by looking at the charts on coinmarketcap, we can see signs that fun will be around again.

Bitcoin seems to plateau around $7800

Way more interesting though is the volume increase on Bitcoin Cash:

Only 10 years ago we will gather around the TV, grab some popcorn and watch a movie. That was what we called fun, those days.

I don't remember when this was changed, but it seems like now we're gathering around a laptop, grab some popcorn and watch a real-time battle between two cryptocurrencies in which wealth the size of a small nation is made and lost in under 2 hours.

The times, they are a-changin'.

The popcorn, fortunately, doesn't.
