Q: What do you expect will the the effect of today's announcement:
"HIVE Blockchain Announces Release of Shares from Lockup", which states that "24,636,705 common shares originally due to be released November 15, 2017 will be released on Wednesday, November 8, 2017 to allow for more market liquidity".
In general, I would expect that an increase in supply will cause the price to fall... But perhaps it is not so simple? What would you expect from this? Also, it is only bringing it forward by a week, so investors may have known about it. Mind you, I expect the vast majority here are retail investors, who may not be aware of such details, and are just buying the trend/hype.
I know predictions are almost impossible, esp. in a case like HIVE, but I would like to know your thought process when evaluating this kind of news, what points you consider most important, etc. (risk, of course, is already off the charts.)
Thanks!
