BobbyPhil1781 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 (edited) I might have to look into that network update. I'm editing a post I asked about possibly keeping my LiteCoin lol. Edited January 16, 2018 by JTagg7754 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm kinda contemplating that. Does it have potential like Ether? I'm not experienced enough to give you good advice on that. Personally, I don't think Litecoin will reach ETH. But if you like it, now is probably the worst time to sell... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only ever bought any as it was means to get into other AltCoin markets and I believe the transfer fees were lower than they are for BitCoin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyPhil1781 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I just used a good portion of it to snag more Ripple. I just don't see how it can sustain such a low price. I feel this coin has too much potential. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now how utilized the 'payment channels' will be in Bitcoin's Lightening Network when it's deployed is unknown. But as you stated the big draw from Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash is the lower transaction fees. LN update eliminates that advantage so then why buy altcoins when you can get bitcoin itself? That's my thinking at least. I will state, I am a novice though. I've been reading heavily but only got into this market December 4th, so still a lot for me to learn. The coins I moved most of my money to late last year/early this year have been ETH and NEO. Mainly because both of them had a lot of ICO's launching utilizing their coins. That move has paid off for me so far. When looking at 'safe' coins I try to look at what ICO's/partnerships they have... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyPhil1781 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Good info, Villain. THank you. The ICO makes a ton of sense. I really need to look up more of that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking back at all the moving/buying that I've been doing, if I just brought ETH and held when I first got in, I probably would be doing better right now. I wanted to have a diversified portfolio and I do now, but I could have saved myself a ton of time and research by just putting $ in ETH and HODLing... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyPhil1781 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 ETH just exploded in the past month. Hindsight is definitely your friend lol. I am w/ you though, a diverse portfolio is nice. I like opening up Blockfolio and looking at everything. Even if it's all red like it is now, it's still interesting. Plus I wanted to grab some low risk, high reward stuff like I did w/ RDD and XMY. Right now it's looking ugly but it didn't start off that way lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I bought a little bit of ETH but I won't have that till the 21st. TRX even at .04 just b3cause of how it's used I figure will at least make it back to .08 a coin. And Stellar I think will reach .90 cents in the next 4 to 5 months and hit a plateau there for awhile. Ripple I just wanted because of its potential but Tron I really wanted because I believe it will rebound and stable out within the next 2 weeks or so.

I put a buy order in last week for BTC when it dipped and want to buy some Alts before it goes up, but I have to wait until the 18th...

TheVillain112 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Dropped down to ~$450 Billion in marketcap at one point. Pretty sure that's the bottom, but let's see... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
