Disclaimer: not investment advice!
Unpopular speculation: I have a hunch we'll see a bit of Bitcoin pullback this weekend & and a bit of an alt rally. Why? A thread.
Weekday traders don't like to go home long on Friday. They tend to go to cash, so there's a Friday downdraft.
The also trade Bitcoin more heavily than other assets.
Weekend speculators feel differently - they trade a lot of alts, and trade on weekends. On the other hand, they're less likely to trade fundamentals, and more likely to trade on TA setups.

Tech tips for those watching the Cash Wars: yesterday's way of watching blocks doesn't apply any more. A little info on DAAs and Hashrates is in order. (Thread.)
BCH has a per-block DAA (Difficulty Adjustment Algorithm.) Mining Difficulty adjusts after every block, based on the previous 144 block average. (SMA - Simple Moving Average.) If blocks are slow, it gets easier to speed them up; if blocks are fast, it gets harder to slow them.

My hot take on the BCH > ABC/SV wars:
Last year, BCH split off from BTC Aug 1st. Approaching that date, BTC price rose steadily. After that date, BTC price rose steadily.
