Frozenbeernuts 2,237 Posted December 13, 2017 why not just play with house money? Because, 9k isn't going to do shlt for me. It will help a tiny amount in the grand scheme of life. The bubble isn't bursting tomorrow. It will burst to a degree, but not any time in the next few months. Only way that happens is with major legislation from large governments Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

WhiteWonder 2,723 Posted December 14, 2017 Not even going to delve into the idea a few posts back that some people are putting their heads in the sand thinking this investment is infallible. I totally agree with that post and feel that myself and others who are pro CC investing but open to devils advocate discussion have been met with little substance from the head in sand types. Hopefully it's not the case and it's just their know it all nature showing through. Hope we all continue to make money but hope people don't lose their shirts.

Frozenbeernuts 2,237 Posted December 14, 2017 45 cents a coin, what do you think it could jump to and when? A buddy of mine who studies this stuff a lot, was in early, told me originally he thought the max for Ripple was $2.00 . Doesn't mean he's right, but he used the already large market share plus the large coin circulation to come to that number. Still a quadruple of investment right now, a little more actually. It's never a bad idea to diversify. Make a hedge on complete decentralization. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems to be some sort of political angle to it with some guys here. I wish Id gotten in a year ago. But its becoming obvious to me that at some point, the last man on the carousel is gonna get crushed here. I have no faith that Id know the right time to bail.

nobody 2,653 Posted December 14, 2017 45 cents a coin, what do you think it could jump to and when? There are about $5 trillion electronically transacted daily. That means, what? Hypothetically let's say ripple becomes the transaction service of the world. Let's say 40% of the 5 trillion is being held in ripple at any one time as transactions end and begin continuously. That's about 2 trillion in ripple spread over whatever is in circulation since the stuff being held back isn't available to buy or sell. There are 100 billion XRP in existence and 40 billion in circulation today. Let's say for our long term outlook, 10 years plus, the daily electronic transactions grow from 5 trillion to 8 trillion (5% growth per year over 10 years). That means 40% is 3.2 trillion in ripple in the hypothetical. Let's say 80 billion ripple are in circulation (institutions will hold reserves and some will get lost). That would value a ripple at $40. Let's say in 2 years, ripple is handling 10% of the transactions and 50 billion ripple are in active circulation. That's roughly $10 per ripple. If it hits $5 in 2 years I'd sell 25%. If it hit $10, I'd sell 50% of what's left, and if it hit $15 in less than 3 years, I'd probably cash out. Now that's where I think fair market value is. That doesn't mean it can't go parabolic and blow through those numbers as people get wise. Get rich. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vuduchile 1,945 Posted December 14, 2017 Simplified explanation regarding what it would take for bitcoin to reach $100K and beyond. The eBay deal is a big step, but Amazon needs to get on board to really make it work as a viable means of payment.

The tricky part with bitcoin being widely adopted is that it's slow and the fees are kind of high. I think in the long run those problems coupled with the high mining costs will make it lose appeal. To me bitcoin was a good first try, but litecoin is a more practical implementation. I think eventually a 3rd crypto will imerge that's even better. I mean creating a currency out of thin air isn't easy. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My CC fees can be as high as 3.5-4% depending on the card used. I paid almost $2K in processing fees last month. I hate giving that money to the cc companies. Amex is still the worst.

iam90sbaby 2,589 Posted December 14, 2017 What is cryptocurrency? Wallets: Coinbase: https://www.coinbase.com/join/5765a52c047088012e00008d To buy Altcoin’s (cryptos other than ETH, BTC and LTC) you are going to need fund an exchange account. Two popular ones that will allow you to get all the altcoins to desire are Poloniex and Binance. Poloniex: http://www.poloniex.com/ Binance: https://www.binance.com/?ref=12137633 Coins I like (in no particular order): Bitcoin Ethereum Litecoin IOTA NEO (ANT) EOS Lisk Waves Steem Price Charts: Probably a good idea to link your accounts to https://www.coinigy.com once you have all your exchanges and wallets setup. OFF-Line Storage: Keep your B&H crypto investments on offline storage here is a good one: https://trezor.io/?h...57a6f722e636f6d I also use a compounding interest account with USI tech to make a little extra side cash with 0 to little effort.
