I'm buckled the eff up and riding my tiny boat into the rocks or to a paradise island, hell if I know which one it is. Or I guess maybe lost in the sea waves forever lol. I'm sure people are saying that somewhere on the internet, but I don't think you'd get a bunch of that here. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pheltzbahr Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Curious. Of those here that own/are buying cryptos, are you investing long term or just trading it? Anyone using futures to hedge/spec? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless there is a major spike like we saw in December 2017, I plan on just holding for a while. I've only sold once and it was when BTC was around $18,000 in December. Other than that I've just been buying... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Buck Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 (edited) I came out of this whole thing fairly well. I bought in at $6,925 and sold at $16,500. Glad I got out when I did. As of right now, it is priced at $10,009 at Coinbase. Hopefully, it will go way back up for fellow FF people in this thread who are still holding it.

BobbyPhil1781 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Yep. I'm holding on for a while also. Just snagged more LiteCoin but only to get more alts while we're down. Maybe tap into Ada or just get more Ripple Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still, not a bad gain Very true JT. I thought about holding long term, but my goal is to start day trading in stocks and options and hopefully quitting my current job (which I HATE). Bitcoin prices could eventually go nuclear and if that happens, I'll just be able to say "if only". At the same time, it's never a bad thing to take a profit, so I'm happy with it.

Awesome and good luck! Hope it works out for you. That's an exciting but risky profession and I don't have the cajones for it. Lot of money to be made there and it's always going to be around. Like you said though, it's never a bad thing to take a profit. I'll be thinking about this though if the price ever gets to 30k lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheVillain112 Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 Marketcap back over $500B. Now it just needs to stay over that line... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, finally seeing some green in my Blockfolio lol. Glad I scooped some stuff on the downswing. We should see a gradual correction Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tima Posted January 17, 2018 Share Posted January 17, 2018 FYI, just got off the phone with my bank (Capital One) and they said that they are no longer allowing credit card purchases of cryptocurrencies from BitStamp due to possibility of fraud. I was able to do that on 1/11/2018. This kind of sucks, because this is the only place I'm able to deposit money at the moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, it's definitely not over, but after reading the opinions of some very smart and successful people, it's a market that I am not going patronize.
