Where is the reddit option to remind me in 1 year when it hits 10 bucks so I can buy Khane a train

Getting to $10 is still more than 5 times its current value. The train hasn't even left the station yet, it's still a penny "stock".

You should think about managing your expectations and maybe not getting ahead of yourself. 2 pages ago you said you put a little money in, not looking to get rich. Now suddenly you speak of "fuck you" money just because it went up 500%? You'd need to have taken a pretty big position for "fuck you" money.

You should go back and re-read that conversation. It was only 2 pages ago.

It's definitely getting some buzz today which will probably push the price up a bit further in the short term

You and I may have different ideas on what a little money is and what fuck you money is.

No, not really. I'm starting to get crypto fatigue. I'll never bet big on any of them (well, I'll never bet big on any stock or asset in general) and putting a pittance into multiple low value cryptos is just more hassle than I want to deal with in hopes of one of them skyrocketing like BTC, Ether or Litecoin.

I was going to put $3k into XRP last week around the $1.10 mark but just didn't feel like creating a wallet/exhange account and trying to buy it. I'm that lazy.

I'm not a pie in the sky investor. I just find it interesting to talk about.

So I just read up a bit on Stellar and... no thanks. It's not even decentralized and there is very little information on it.

EDIT: Oh, it's a fork of Ripple. And the founders of Stellar are claiming that's due to a flaw in Ripple and Ripple is like "fork you bro".

See this is the biggest problem with this crypto boom. I really do believe it's the next tech bust. Not cryptocurrency itself but all these companies trying to create payment platforms or blockchain implementations.

Or we can all start a "cloud" mining service - with out members in Asia they can get us all s9's etc.

I just like the title Chief Cryptographer

XRP broke $2 hard at $2.26 JFC.

Anybody with Ripple should be selling right now. This market is beyond irrational.

We think its going to hit coinbase soon

It is a bizarre speculation market. No matter how big these currencies get, when they start being used by average citizens to leverage wealth out of countries with restrictive laws. I can't imagine a world where governments don't fight/ban/regulate/limit and take down that avenue.

You don't make anything until you sell. I've had trades way, way up only to see the unrealized gains later collapse.

Ripple is highly centralized and the creators hold a massive amount of coins that they can just dump on the market at any time. (correct me if I'm wrong)

Not selling a held asset can be as much a gamble as buying it.
