No wonder I sneezed non-stop. Turns out you mentioned my name. tongue.gif

Used to be at lower levels but got downgraded further due to July crash. Now still bleeding 40% from all time high. sad.gif

Don't believe you are plankton, probably a dolphin camouflaged as a big plankton. biggrin.gif

Yeap July crash was the crazy month for everyone sad.gif

I am very direct and straight forward, just a small plankton working to become a dolphin ...
Now slowly recover and recoup my losses in polo ( margin loss , ETH and xrp missing )
The investment in NEO was the best, recover back half of my loses in Polo, although I exited too early but am happy ... imagine if I don't exit from Neo too early would have earn 2-3 BTC sad.gif but a profit still a profit smile.gif

From there, I scalpel few there n few here each profit 5-20% I sell... the current holding at lose value is SYNX ( bought in at 16k sats , DGB bought in at 583 sats , BAT 🦇 bought in at average 5400 bats , LTC bought in at 0.014 BTC )

Betting peanuts into ZEC, and if ZEC reach 300 ( need to break through the 0.062 resistance ( bought at 0.0591 ) then I can smile already coz can safely invest with profit )

Invested small amount in cloud mining and I don't even bother to monitor anymore ... loL 😂 don't even Know whether they pay to me or not...

I still believe HODL is still the best strategy for us non-pro traders. Of course, day trading or swing trade at the sides can still be done.

Anyway, dead coin XMR finally moving upwards. thumbup.gif

Something is wrong with the prices on Bittrex.
Poloniex is at USD 86 but Bittrex is going for around USD 111.
If you guys have funds on both exchanges, now is your chance for arbitrage.

I noticed past few days quite a few coins are higher on Bittrex. The last one was LSK. If diligent can really make some side income.

Don't sell lor. When I first enter cryptos, I made up my mind to HODL good crypto coins for a long long time because I don't want to have regrets of selling the coins to see it shoot to the moon. I take BTC as my main reminder. Imagine selling BTC for $100 to see it at current levels. rclxub.gif

50 sats. That time already shot up 1000%! Really missed a golden opportunity. However, I stopped buying SC when it was 143. Only swing trades after that.

Anyway, since ripple is in action, here's some news on ripple: http://www.cryptoquicknews.com/ripple-xrp-leaping-china/

Oh, it just hit 20 cents! smile.gif

QUOTE
Ripple & XRP are Leaping into China!

The crypto-currency market is fickle about where the “fast money” flows.

And we’ve seen where that fast money is flowing recently, with almost all of the “alt coins” – the derogatory term given to anything not Bitcoin – suffering in terms of their market capitalization while Bitcoin continues to soar as it gains traction with traditional investors.

But now XRP trade volume is seeing a massive re-resurgence amidst the Bitcoin chaos.  Some of these new investors actually read!  And what they’re reading has lead them to a conclusion: “Bitcoin is not all that.”

XRP is all that!

XRP investors willingly go through periods of stagnant price growth because we know what the end-game is, and we see it happening in the other parts of the world where XRP investing is in high gear; and we know very well what will happen to the price as “proof of adoption” is reached in high volumes in the banking industry.

We believe in the technology of XRP.  It dwarfs every other competitor in the market today in speed and scalability 1:

XRP_Payment_Speed_Comparison_Graph

Ripple technology has been implemented in production in banks worldwide.  Adoption is taking place quickly, with over 90 banks and financial institution customers, and over 75 commercial deployments of RippleNet. 2
Ripple is Supporting XRP Investors

Posting on investor forums like XRPChat, Reddit, and Bitcointalk, the Ripple team knows that a lot of people believe in their success and the ultimate success of XRP as the world’s foremost digital asset.  Miguel Vias recently visited XRPChat and had this to say to the loyal XRP fans: 3 
Miguel Vias
Miguel Vias

    [Ripple is] “….Just a bunch of people crazy enough to throw caution to the wind and try to do something that’s never been done before. For what it’s worth, this community is incredibly important to Ripple’s success and is a real motivator to many of the folks at Ripple. Thank you for all the support!”

This is a nod to the high esteem Ripple places on XRP investors as they provide liquidity for the network, and it’s also an example of how the company is keeping focused on their core mission to support us: by continuing to build the next global payments framework.

And they’re doing it!

In Japan, a consortium representing 80% of all banking assets in Japan has committed to deploying Ripple across all of its domains, putting that nation firmly in the category of Ripple technology’s adoption. 4  The Japan market is very large, and that win alone has catapulted Ripple into the international spotlight. But Ripple, like all the “great” companies in other industries, isn’t standing still and celebrating that win like it’s the final leg of a marathon. No… the team at Ripple knows that the Japan consortium win is but the first five miles in their marathon.
China is Next

The long-distance marathon developers and architects at the company have now set their sights on a difficult task; entering the Chinese banking market.
Chris Larsen
Chris Larsen

Chris Larsen was recently appointed to the Technology Advisory Board at HSBC 5 in Hong Kong, which handles a tremendous amount of UK and Chinese banking.  In fact, HSBC is the biggest bank in Hong Kong, and not by a small amount; the next largest bank is roughly one-fourth as large!

The Team is Forming

Along with Chris Larsen leading the charge, Ripple is now forming their Chinese market team as we speak, made up of their usual mix of all-stars when it comes to banking, fintech, and technology.

Emi Yoshikawa, Ripple’s director of the Chinese joint venture partnership, communicated 6 that they are hiring the team members that will form the core presence in China for Ripple:

    “Ripple is looking for our first set of feet on the ground in China to launch and operationalize our team there!”

How Big is the Chinese Banking Market?

Biggest in the World.. by a very large margin!  The largest four banks in the world are all based in China, and control over 12 trillion dollars worth of assets.  That’s trillion with a “t.”  7

In fact, the United States has lost its dominance in world banking somewhere along the way, and currently has 10 banks in the top 100 (by total assets), whereas China has 19 banks in the top 100 (by total assets).

And it’s not just the size of the banks’ assets.  China has seen explosive growth in the technology that’s driving payments, and international transfers of value.  Because of its status as the foremost worldwide banking powerhouse and industrial giant, technology adoption has been relatively quick among users, and the numbers are impressive.

One article recently claimed that AliPay and WeChat processed over $3 trillion in payments in 2016. With a population of 1.4 billion and counting, capturing any part of the Chinese cross-border value transfer business would be a significant addition to Ripple’s market reach. 8 9

Emi Yoshikawa had this to say about the Chinese market 10:

    “China is a key market for a global payments network, which is why we are looking to build a presence there. Total cross-border [business-to-business] payment value involving China is $5 trillion annually, and the large Chinese e-commerce market currently lacks a highly efficient and low-cost solution.”

The pursuit of the Chinese banking market is a herculean task for Ripple, but we know they’re up for the challenge, as that’s what they’ve done time and again; completed what others have thought impossible!
The Next Six Months

I can’t wait to see who’s on the China team for Ripple.  Given what they’ve done already, I’m sure it’s going to be an all-star cast of fintech geniuses that will focus on problem solving and creativity at a level that leaves all of their contemporary competition staring at them from behind the front lines.

It’s time for all the right moves again, and fortunately for those of us investing in XRP, that’s what Ripple does best.

So high still buy? Do note that a lot of coins get pumped and then dump as quick as it was pumped. I sincerely hope the price will increase further but remember the general rule "Don't chase when high". wink.gif

Speculation only. $1 will make ripple's market cap ridiculously high. Of course, how I wished it can go to $1. Also wish ETH will become $1000 biggrin.gif

USD 1 for XRP would mean a market cap of nearly USD 40 Billion.
Unlikely in the short term, though not impossible.
But it would still be easier than ETH trying to reach USD 1000 (required market cap of over USD 90 Billion and overtaking BTC).

BUT, in my humble opinion anyway, it is just an inevitable progression that the above will eventually happen.
If not next year, then maybe the year after that.
*
Yup, crazy cryptoland, not impossible to become $1.

For ETH, now with more competition from similar newer cryptos, might be more difficult but again, since it has a good head start, sill possible to shoot higher.

Just have to wait for market cap to reach the trillions range. biggrin.gif
