Yeah, as always, unpredictable. I was hoping for BTC to drop after the failed 2nd ETF with persistent unresolved hardforking of BTC. Then Japan acceptance of BTC happened.

things never go according to plan, well stay on the sidelines and watch the charts.

Actually heard about that bit on polo a few days back but didn't react as I didn't want to play the market. Looks like i need to tweak my strategy yet again. Convert to BTC on good news and convert back to altcoins or USDT on bad news.

For my minor altcoins, I'm going to try joining the pumps and dumps. A lot of opportunities to earn a quick buck which I had refrained myself from doing. I think for minor altcoins, have to follow stock market, don't fall in love with a particular stock too much!

Had stopped buying BTC for a some time now. See how things turn out after the recent Japan news sink in.

However, my long term HODL plan still remains. ETH and dash!!! already in my trezor.

in polo i can only find btc lending.where do i find eth lending?

same page for lending, just click ETH on the right side.

Yeah, as mention by coupefanatic. ETH lending rates are very bad though. Not really worth it at the moment.

On other news, litecoin segwit at 61%!! Hopefully can reach 75% soon.

So LTC gonna be sort of 'testnet' for BTC.

Xrp slowly drop lower

Regret didnt sell when it was 6.5cents 🤒

Sell mine when it was 5.5
Donno whether to buy back now or wait it drop more.
Ltc looking good too.

It bounce back everytime hit 3 cents twice...

The short term support level is there edi....

I think better wait for 1 day massive rally to rejoin the wagon....

Last time full course rally whrre t apprecuate 10times it values takes 3-5 days rally as well...

No no! I don't want BTC to find a solution so fast. Enjoying altcoins for as long as possible!!!

Nice trade there!!!

And now my 30% holding (bitcoin) is causing my remaining 70% to go into the red......

Yup, there is no need for blind loyalty in investment. Your objective is only to increase your investments and make money for your family.
So, just go with whatever that increases your profits.
I mean, I still think bitcoin is a viable investment and there is still a good chance that it will break free from the current chains of civil war, but don't lose sight of the other coins.
Right now I have BTC, ETH and XMR permanently on my holding, but am also dabbling a little into the other coins just for speculation along with the masses.

Yeah, just put it in the closet for a while until the next frenzy rally comes around.
I'm doing the same.

Is the any drawbacks in lending at poloniex? Can the lender run away with our btc or can we suffer any loss?

WTF......I just bought a stash of ETH yesterday, and promptly lost 10% of it in the last 24 hours...!!!

No worries, I bought at USD 46 yesterday.

Ok, here comes my noob 0.0002 ETH opinion! From my reading and available evidences, I do sincerely think ETH will be the next bitcoin. Not so much as a anonymous cryptocurrency but the blockchain internet of the world. I guess we all know ETH doesn't function like BTC as they have different purposes. For BTC, it is already there, with many other coins vying to catch up. BTC's unique features may still be it's downfall, when one day, governments around the world say enough is enough especially the illegal aspects of using bitcoins. ETH has no such problem.... I think. It is designed to power the internet blockchain-style and there's no other "coin" that is near ETH at the moment. If ETH developers are successful, and I think that is very close at hand, ETH will really shoot to the moon.

Hurray, I just managed to bottom-fish ETH!!!

According to the mods, the coins that you lent out cannot be transferred out of Poloniex and they have safeguard measures to protect the lender. They say the risk is minimal if not negligible. I have successfully offered hundreds of loans with no problems at the moment but I won't say it is 0% risk. Yes, I'm a loan shark and just loaned out my clams at 1.498%!!!

Litecoin segwit at 63.4%!!!!

You seem to be continuously buying coins......
You must be damn cash-rich...

No la, was slowly channelling my bitcoins to altcoins. My strategy hardforked remember? Even now when I buy bitcoins, it is slowly converted to altcoins. Last bitcoin purchase was 10 days ago and last night. I'm almost out of bitcoins now. I think I'm already at my targeted 10% of total investment so future funds will only trickle in slowly.

Litecoin segwit up to 68%!!! Any expert on litecoin? What will happen to litecoin prices when segwit activates?

Personally, I don't have any LTC, but I did hear that they are trying to push segwit on it soon as a test so they can prove it can run on bitcoin as well.
If it works, then not only litecoin will see a jump in price, I have a feeling that bitcoin will rise as well.
Damn......look at the spikes on HUC and QTL......


On second thought......you may be right.
Maybe now is the time to transfer out the bitcoins and convert them into altcoins, while the bitcoin price is up and the altcoins prices are cheap.
To be honest, my exposure in cryptocurrencies is probably too high.
Due to the recent rise of ETH, my total holding in cryptocurrencies is now about 25% of my total investment nest egg.
Scary......

Ermmm... I hope you still keep some BTC. Who knows it might shoot up with news.

I'm not sure whether the trend will continue but every time BTC goes up, altcoins will get hit with deep nice discounts which later recovers slowly. Really good opportunity to either buy cheap or buy low sell high.

Ya, me too. If there is opportunity, I want to increase mine to 15% of total. See how's the market.


Nice. My highest XRP at 5 cents so no buying till over this price. My gut feeling is it may go higher but that's my gut only.
