    That's exactly what happened to me when ETH was 1600. By the time I got everything transferred it was around 2000. Fwiw I think it's still very early for ETH. I'm going to be buying more myself if we ever get a dip.

    He's absolutely wrong. He's as ignorant and shortsighted as David Letterman was in that clip I posted from 1995 where he tries to explain to Bill Gates why the Internet is pointless. Cryptocurrency doesn't just use blockchain tech, it represents the monetization of blockchain tech. And...

    Well, seems like options expiring today sent BTC (and thereby other crypto) straight up. Good to keep in mind.

    It's true. Buy the coin and xfer it to cold storage and close your account /shrug. I thought about waiting until someone like Fidelity puts crypto on their exchange too, but you can pretty much guarantee by the time that happens you will have missed out on a ton of gain. It's basically take...

    That's interesting. I don't get a lot of the technical details, but the general concepts make sense to me. It does seem that a relatively small number of people can exert outsized influence on ETH- specifically the programmer/engineers that control the code. I suspect that BTC has its own...

    Ive definitely heard the same narrative from a lot of pro BTC people, but I'm honestly not sure what they mean. Can you explain succinctly in what way ETH is centralized that doesn't apply to BTC?

    Just something to consider, if Facebook reveals it is holding Bitcoin you guys might get fucked for waiting. Edit: or if they reveal they aren't, the opposite could happen lol

    Well, you can't really call it "news" at this point. Still likely to have an impact, but I'd be surprised if it had much of one.

    "BTC is more of a crypto commodity than currency & competes with gold as a store of value, whereas ETH is the backbone of the crypto-native economy. To the extent owning a share of this potential activity is more valuable...ETH should outperform BTC over the long run" - JP Morgan

    More than WHO expected though? Investor expectations are often different than analyst expectations, and ultimately investors are all that matter. That's why it often seems incongruent. Also, you can't compare crypto investor expectations/reactions to securities investor...

    From what Im reading, just keeping VET in your Binance account is the same as staking it. You'll automatically get your VTHO reward after a month. I haven't had my VET in there a month yet, so I couldn't tell you if that's true. Maybe Jackie knows.

    Was going to post pretty much the same thing. There will ALWAYS be dips. And you better believe that there are lots and lots of whales out there that are going to want to buy into crypto who have the ability to cause dips so they can buy in at a good price. We've already seen a it happen a...

    You'd be a fool to buy any crypto on RH. You can't stake your crypto on RH or move it to another exchange or even into cold storage.

    Honestly, I have no idea how a company with such as shitty business model stays in business (and I say that as a reluctant customer). This is a failure of Capitalism. Coinbase's valuation tells you all you need to know about the demand for a good exchange, and the fact that people are putting...

    Then yeah, you'll have to deal with the bullshit at Binance.US. You fill out a support ticket yet? Edit: My impression from my own experiences is that you have to be a squeaky wheel in order to get them to pay attention to you and fix your issue.

    IIRC, the last big options expiry had pretty much zero impact on the price of BTC. Maybe because of this (from the article): "It is difficult to prove whether max pain pinning is real or coincidental because bitcoin’s options market is still relatively small for the expiry to have a sizable...

    @Araysar In all seriousness, Binance.us is awful. I got verified and set up pretty quick but I had tons of trouble trying to deposit funds in the account. Do a search- people have lots and lots of issues with Binance.us (as opposed to just Binance, which apparently is pretty damn good)...

    Pretty insightful about the last dip (and the crypto space in general). Could be relevant for the potential upcoming dip. I've been watching her for a while now, and every prediction she has made has been spot on.

    Agree it will probably cause the crypto market (and all markets) to dip temporarily. Might be a good buying point, but something like this wouldn't impact the crypto market long term. You might get a week or two of a dip at most.

    Yep- your method is actually both the safer and more conventional method because you take profits along the way. My way is riskier but pays better if everything works like it's supposed to.

    IMO, the crypto "do's" are simple: 1. Do invest in two or three coins you like, preferably coins with a good use case, an active, talented development team, and an already established record of success (I personally like ETH and VET). 2. Do hold onto them until you can cash out without feeling...

    You guys can argue about if (or when) crypto will replace fiat or if it will be deflationary all day, but the bottom line is that cryptocurrency- as in the monetization of blockchain tech- isn't going anywhere. And if you don't believe it's going to be an increasingly important part of the...

    Tend to agree with this. Mainly because of this: I think the crypto that replaces fiat works with the current system through evolution rather than revolution. Luminaries and philosophers are taken with the concept of bitcoin, but I think it will be an engineer's coin that replaces fiat, not...
