Yo, been around for around 7 years. i am what you would refer to as AN ABSOLUTELY INSANE LITECOIN BULL. I basically made it on litecoin, what i thought to be the best coin ever.... until today.
you see... there is a new token on the block. It goes by the name of $BOOB. Its supply being pegged at 50k, h-how in the world does it achieve this!!!?!?!?! this peg is achieved by the burn rate function and the dynamic yield farming APY that changes in relation to the current supply, to ensure that the supply is remaining at around 50k, but at the same time also providing viable APY's for farming

I don't know if i'd consider myself an oldfag, but I've been on biz since early 2017. I got into Antshares at $5, and started filling my Chainlink bags at 20 cents. The project i'm most heavily invested in now (besides eth and btc) is Statera. Alot of people are fudding it hard, but thats only because they're not autistic enough to understand its scope.

Alright man I get it. I hold 38k STA. I'm about to load up to 100k+ of STA.
But honestly STA is not a long term hold. No way. I just don't see it happening. It at best has one massive pump left then the train will be derailed. I honestly think Scott has another project in the works.
That being said I am going to sell the next pump and be set for a while. I truly am not trying to fud, I just don't get how people see this as a NEVER SELL hold. It for sure is a short-mid hold but nowhere near long.

I was in uni and didn’t make it because I was a poorfag. My big hit was when I pulled in x25 on TRX. Put in $500 and made ~10K which I used to fund my life throughout college to study comp sci instead of working at dumb wagecuck cafe’s and shit. Meanwhile for 3 years I also kept researching crypto and trying to find a moonshot but kept blowing through more and more money. The best holds would of been LINK and BNB, but sadly I didn’t commit to either. In all honesty, the name of the game is to gain as many sats as possible. If you want to know “what projects look promising” it’s BTC and don’t ever think it’ll ever be different. Just buy as much as possible for as long as possible and sooner or later you’ll have 1 MM USD. That’s my plan. DeFi is an easy risk free way to make more sats and dump your bags on plebs.

>> No.23400376

>>23400349
Also want to say that once I sell the next pump at my sell point... If I see that STA is going somewhere again I will buy back in. But as far as a long hold the team will have to do something significant for the project to convince me to hold long term and NEVER SELL.

Ok I’ll give a disclaimer. I’m mid-term hard ETH bull. Ever since I got a full time job as a software dev, I’ve been stacking enormous amounts of ETH since $100 ETH prices. But if I double my sats with ETH, I’ll immediately market sell everything into BTC. Ethereum is risky, it’s software that can be hacked and has gotten hacked. Solidity gets the job done, but has its own share of problems. If you get 10 BTC right now at ~10K, you’re guaranteed to be a millionaire in 5-10 years.

I guess so, I remember when this board was first made to clean up /g/. I also remember when bitcoin giveaway threads, usually on /b/ (that actually gave away btc because it was like $.50 each and had basically no market) were banned just because no one took bitcoin seriously and everyone thought it was a huge meme. I thought it was a scam for miners with prohibitively expensive rigs to con people into giving them money for magic internet coins for the longest time, until I bought 150 eth for around $1usd each in 2015 or 2016. I didn't have any money or a good computer (when you could actually mine fucktons of btc with a single gpu gaming rig) before then anyways.

This was all fine and dandy until 2018 when the CEO of Quadrigacx "died in india" and I lost all my fucking eth.
I only used that piece of shit because I'm Canadian and Quadrigacx was one of the few places that e-transfers would go through for at the time here. I didn't want to have to transfer between various services getting middled each time and losing 20% of my deposit. Never trusting a cex ever again.

Now, after like 2 years of seething, I'm slowly building myself up and am at around 10eth... Life is suffering

There's other moon missions to be had though. All the big brains (correctly) point to Polkadot as a safe and long term investment that will likely x5 or x10, but if you want x100s look for the smart contract parachain that will get the most adoption. That will be worth $500 to a billion in a few years, and they are all worth peanuts right now.

First bought BTC at $500, ETH at $10.00, LINK at $1.00. Sold my LINK @ $16.70. I am currently all in BTC and only accumulating ONE alt coin since I bought it at $.008 and sold it at .17. That alt coin is no other than PNK. Don't fall for the FUD, I am going to use my BTC gains to accumulate more PNK for the next 2 months. BTC will be back to 14-15k in November and 16-18k in December. Again, these gains will be going into PNK. Believe me or not I don't give a shit, I told all of you to dump your shit coins about over a month ago for BTC but you were too busy chasing the dragon.

Been here since 2016. Had some winners and losers. Research before you invest. I held XRP, XLM, BTC, ETH, BAT, XVG, LINK and ETN(shitcoin a friend had me buy) through the last bull run, and the crash. This time feels a lot like 2016 now. Everything started slow and right after the election blew through everyone’s expectations. My ~1500 investment I made in college is now worth over 10k, if another bull run happens, it will be worth some real money and I can finally sell off some of my shot coins. I just kind of bought into hype last run, have since really studied the fundamentals and have learned jumping on hype trains is like playing a casino game.

Like I said, I picked some winners and some losers. Be diverse. I learned when your Uber driver is asking if you’ve bought crypto, it’s time to get out. I have a feeling we’ll see another run here starting in the next few months, and they typically last ~5 months. $LINK has always been a meme here, even more so when I first came to biz. But it is the real deal. Can’t go wrong with ETH and BTC and I would say that those three should make up 50% of a solid portfolio. Don’t chase small caps looking for huge gains. The gains in crypto are huge anyway, stock guys make 10% on a good year. But I don’t really know shit, and I think anyone who does who doesn’t spend their career in this stuff is foolish to try and guess what’s coming. So take what I say with a grain of salt.

Been in crypto since November 2013 bullrun. Have seen plenty of alts come and go. Have held so many of them LTC, Doge, Pandacoin, Stratis etc. etc.
Didn't buy into ETH ICO because nach then their economic model was very flawed and holding ETH wouldn't have made much sense. However, they just fucking changed the rules. Yeah... so much for the chain is the law.
Could say so much.. What is important and difficult? Timing the flows of money into Fiat/BTC/quality alts/shitty alts.

Well my portfolio peaked at about 3.1M usd, cashed out a ml ish usd but I bought into a few scam icos that never listed so since my folio peaked in early 2018 I’ve lost maybe a ml from hodling, there’s two types of people, those who trade and sell before the main move thinking they’ll buy back lower, those who simply never sell and those who follow google trends and see that once we hit an 80-90 again it’s time to begin selling, if you got big bags by then you never sell all at once you simply have a price in mind and you liquidate a few % at a time. I’m all in btc, eth, dot and nucypher. Once btc goes on it’s tear back to aths and beyond it’ll rek all shitcoins for a long while, remember each run is different and this run it’s about companies and no doubt next countries putting btc on their balance sheets and they won’t touch shitcoins so I expect there’ll be times where btc actually outperforms. We’re passing 12k btc yet google trends Are at an 11, they were at a 100 in December 2017. We are simply early, this is smart money accumulation before launch. Begin to look to sell 6 months after cnn have a live bitcoin ticker up on their news channel again, btc will hit 100k for next halving, the real bull runs in 2022, btc will hit aths before mid 2021 though. Bitcoin will outperform and bitcoin will get an Etf this time, stack sats. They’re simply all that matters.

On average quality alts (top 30 or so) will be your best bet on average. BTC and ETH can't pump hard enugh because of their size while Shitcoins can pump very hard but picking the right ones is unlikely. What remains are proven Altcoins with still plenty of upside potential.

Regret not buying Darkcoin before it became Dash - privacy coins were a no brainer.
