VEN to the moon, or whalers just playing around the news.

Just in case you're behind on the VEN news, VeChain partnered with Fanghuwang recently. Apparently there will be more information on the 24th.

So I was actually planning to buy some yesterday while it was still around $5, but thought I would wait for some more news just so I don't invest blindly. Wake up today just to see VEN gone up to $7.5 damn. Fanghuwang is estimated to grow x5 during 2018 and be worth over $10billion, considering that I could Imagine VEN also growing quite a bit during 2018.

I'm just unsure, do you guys think whales are pumping the price while there isn't much news and coverage on this topic, or is it just the hype driving the price up?
