Inside Investing  | Nov 04, 2018 09:57AM ET

Looking back at the first part of 2018, we saw major events impacting the world’s economies - the crypto market went on a rollercoaster ride, the U.S. withdrew from NAFTA and a Trade War was launched, to name a few. As we head into the second half of the year, let’s review your 5 most-read stories for the first half of this year.

  3. Stellar's Success Hangs On Ripple's Reputation

Since the meteoric rise of Bitcoin in the public’s eye during 2017, cryptocurrencies have started to gain serious momentum, with more and more coins popping up.

3 of the 5 top stories during that 6-month period were crypto-related, showing us the increase in demand for information about cryptocurrencies.

Furthermore, of the 15-most-read stories of the same time period, only 3 were not crypto-related. Does this indicate a clear investing trend for the future?
