Bitcoin lost 15% yesterday. We know it’ll bounce back, but for how long. Maybe its worth considering what American billionaire Ray Dalio predicted last month, that Bitcoin would eventually be outlawed. We look at reasons why he might be right.

Also today, trade figures last week showed that the UK’s exports to the EU were still 20 percent down at the end of February.
