Nah this is limiting and the technology is still really early. Got in at $3000 and still not regretting anything. I regret selling some at 15,000 when it first exploded actually.

What should I buy?

Sitting on ADA right now which I don't know if it'll ever boom or not. Should I just stick to the big crypto like BTC and ETH?

I want to invest like $500 for now and go from there maybe.

Link has made me a lot of money but now I shifted focus to other alts.
ive been in since a little under 40 cents and haven’t sold a coin. Still think the best is yet to come. What other alts you in right now I’m looking for a moon shot potential one.


40 cents? Damn
Thought I was slick getting in just under $4 :lol:
I’m still very much a btc guy. Got a nice bag of NOIA which has been a monster lately. Still think it has a ton more potential.
Haven’t sold one TEL yet and been DCA’ing for almost 3 years. Boom or bust on that one.
Fan of UTK as well.
Took another gamble on DEXA as well. High risk high reward.

Anything you can recommend?

what would you like to know sir?

maybe I'll start with why. why crypto?

In a nutshell and I'm condensing here. First we had the internet of information. During the time people thought mail was good enough but now everything's done through email. It proved that a decentralized network works more efficiently than a centralized network (post officez).

Next in line is the internet of value. why can't we send payments or receive payments from all over the globe like we can with email? thats where we're heading next. Not only will this work more efficiently but it will reduce cost, speed of transaction and volatility.

OCC and SEC announcing regulations within 6-8 weeks that will most likely help adoption of the space. Look around worldwide and you'll see the top banks and institutions are opening their own custodial services. Paypal recently opened this option when it was all just a rumor in July. Soon banks in the US will offer these cryptos to the retail investors. At first it was a bubble but it is now being accepted that its here to stay.

Invest now, 99% of the population is still in the dark about cryptocurrency, as you can see in this thread.

I'll never sell bitcoin, got in 2015 and bought most at 200-400 and buy a bit after every blood curdling crash. This is the reserve currency of the future. Instead, I just converted a bag in 2017 to alts and stables that I have since turned into alts which I rotate every now and then from new alts to stablecoins to big caps to more stables etc, and has kept me going for the past 3 years and probably until I get rekt lol

All my alts, I usually take cash profit once the mania reaches unfathomable heights, usually when your relatives and friends start telling you about some $hitcoins they made 10x on

You never truly understand it, I still don't know everything myself. You learn day by day and figure things out slowly. Most of the things I saw years ago made no sense to me and I thought absurd but today, it is truly being built before my eyes, a brand new asset class and a brand new economy. It is a lifestyle, instead of following the old style where everything has deeply entrenched corruption stemming from bankers and politicians who strangle the life out of everyone, I'd rather venture into this wild west and build my empire my own way, the new way. There is tons of danger along the path but this is what it is all about, nothing is ever easy. Let them try and stop me.

Don't heavily invest in cypto. It is extremely volatile. 5%-10% max of your portfolio can be invested. The trick is you have to sit in front of your computer constantly and watch if it drops or rises. You have to be ok with losing money. I would say investing in stock or indexes is the smarting choice. Crypto is fun though. Just be really careful.

OCTO (Oracle), ORAI (Oracle), STBZ (Stablecoin farm), CAP (Derivatives), DEUS/DEA (Derivatives), ZORA (Oracle), BONDLY (NFTs)

Those are all my under 20 million market cap coins

My lowest cap is STBZ which I am an active contributor to

Interesting. I haven’t heard of any of those, which is a good thing. Look fwd to doing some research. Haven’t really gotten into the whole uniswap/farming/Defi movement. Probably not smart on my part.

My lower cap coins are DEXA, COTI, VIDT, VRA, SNTVT and my eternal hold which is TEL lol
