https://bit.ly/387FXHi lightning theory

I think it should be:

"Bitcoin, for the current financial world, is like a deep breath after entering the top of the mountain."

I'm from England, that's how we learn it anyway.

Quote

Bitcoin is like a deep breath after entering the top of the mountain.

That is the main caluse of the sentence, as you can tell it can stand alone.

Quote

for the current financial world

We can then embed this subordinate clause that doesn't make sens on is own, but in the sentence, it fits well.

As in topic - can someone with high English skills check grammar in this quote:

"Bitcoin for the current financial world, is like a deep breath, after entering the top of the mountain."

"For the current financial world, Bitcoin is like having a deep breath after arriving on the top of the mountain".

Just trying if it makes sense.

"Bitcoin for the current financial world, is like a deep breath, after entering the top of the mountain."

I think this works:

"Bitcoin is a deep breath of fresh air from the top of a mountain for the current financial world"

However, I might write the following for more tactility:

"Bitcoin is like the fresh air taken in a deep breath after reaching the summit of a Himalayan mountain to our current financial world."

Doggerel much?

Doggerel Haiku:

   Orange Bitcoin
   Honey Badger Attack
   HODL!

How's that for a first attempt?

Haiku was my first choice, but upon Googling...

BTW, you're missing two syllables.

   Orange Blossom Bitcoins
   Honey Badgers Attack
   HODL!

Those commas don't need to be there. Commas are mostly used for conjunction sentences, before words like and or but, so there is no need for them there even if you want the reader to read it slowly.

I think comma before word Bitcoin is ok.

It's not just okay, it's mandatory. "For the current financial world" is a non-restrictive clause (you can remove it without changing the meaning of the rest of the sentence), so it must be separated with commas.

Is it "You're always welcome!" or "Your always welcome!"? (think: Your Welcome.)

Think: "My welcome!" (sentence fragment) or "I am welcome!"?

Instead of reaching you can say , after reaching at the top ...

Entering is not a valid word here as explained in above posts .

Been wanting to touch up on my grammar and how I write. Do any of you have suggestions of sites to practice the basics and develop from there? Drives a bit wonky when I look at lines of spew and no real control of what I am stating.

Maybe Lynda or the Khann institute as examples.

The financial Bitcoin world is a mountain top with no current fresh air to breathe. Derp.
