wed aint too bad

it beats sitting empty handed during a firesale


It's pretty bad when I bought the ETH 10 days ago :lol: :lol:


i made that mistake once too :lol:

if you invest it in a juggernaut like ven you should be good. i invested mine in ICX and while i couldve bought more coins i came out in the green, alts usually exaggerate dips compared to BTC and ethereum. Ven might be another story though...it's lookin unstoppable.

I bought in this morning when it was high which obviously isn't wise but I feel like in the long run it won't matter that much

Yeah, that delay can cost you value. It happened to me once when I bought BTC from coinbase and waited 9 days. Buy the time I got it ,it lost dollars on its value from when I bought it. I hated that.

The market already went through a huge dip while I was waiting for my ETH and it might be two dips before I get it :lol: :lol:

I put money in what I believe in. Period. Diversification is great but you'll potentially dilute your earnings while minimizing risk.

Beautiful thing about the underlying theme of blockchain is decentralization. XRP is for the centralized banks. But then again, hey, if it makes you dead prez do what you want. You mofos, I mean fomos, errbody an expert on realgm.

Giants GM Gettleman wants Eli Manning at quarterback, but will look at 2018 class



New York Giants general manager Dave Gettleman reaffirmed his desire for Eli Manning to remain as the team's quarterback in their meeting more than a week ago and shared some of his team-building vision while conceding he still will evaluate quarterbacks in the 2018 NFL draft class, according to sources familiar with their discussion.


Barkley or a Trade down?

not a fan of either of the top QBs

I had to wait for ETH for like 9 days. I called up coinbase, which takes forever I might as well skip to their headquarters, and was told bank wire is the most efficient. So I bank wired to coinbase, took me a day or two to receive it in my USD wallet. Also, bank wire removes most of the limits. You can wire up to 250k I believe (dont quote me on that # but I think thats the limit).

i really gotta start getting into icos and hopefully hit a goldmine




just did some more research on him...looks like he got in on icon, wanchain, powr, and other marquee ICO's...damn

gotta get his spreadsheet lol


I checked him out where Rhodey (?) recommended him at the beginning of this thread, and I've gotta say, his grading system is bullsh*t :lol:

Granted, it's more research than most people do, but still, he basically goes to the founders' LinkedIn page and looks at their work history. Oh, Deloitte? All-Star!

Never mind that they might have done auditing at Deloitte and now they jumped into the blockchain trend just to ride it.

Never mind that they might have just been at JP Morgan because Accounting sounded like a good major to their parents and went down that path and got a "good job" after college just to please them.

Working at a recognizable company says NOTHING about your ability to deliver as an entrepreneur. In fact, it is very likely a negative correlation.

Reality is, you can't know much about the team just by looking at their online profiles. You'd have to meet with them in person and get to know them. And even then, it's still a crapshoot.

I know what he's doing is a volume game and this is the best he can do while "analyzing" a large number of ICO's, but let's not act like his system is some groundbreaking creation that is responsible for his paper millions. It was almost impossible to lose money in the ICO market last year. It was a crazy year and it still is. I just hope it doesn't end till I make some change as well :lol:

and this is why ~30% of my portfolio is Cardano.
there's a ~50 minute video where he explains the vision for Cardano and all I can say is I feel like in the future, talking multi-year hold, it has potential to be just as big as Ethereum is currently.


this video is why I believe in Stellar as well.

VeChain is interesting to me but at almost $10 per coin I feel like I already missed the boat on the huge profits unless I throw a couple grand at it.
