Pfft.  If this 'one investor' is as crazy as half the fools on this forum--or as caught up in the euphoria--this is nothing to start a circle jerking session over.  Not that we don't have one in progress as I write this.  In bull markets people go fucking nuts and predict that the Dow is going to be double what it is next year, and blah blah blah.  No one knows.  And this is just one opinion.

I can't hit the friggin' ignore button fast enough on bitcointalk.  This place is infested with garbage like this.

I'm more of a pharmacogrouch, but I'll take that moniker. 

Lol is that you in the pic?

And dammit, I live too far north and already have two cats!

They don't ban bitches on this forum, else 3/4 of you bitches, digital or otherwise would be outta here.  So stop bitching.

All of these coins are garbage, and ripple is no exception.   Basically most of what OP said is true...and it applies to 99.999% of the rest of the shitcoin world.

You got that right.   But this is an impossible question to answer.  One ? Two?  A hundred, maybe?   It obviously all depends on the price of BTC in the future,  and none of us knows that.  My guess would be 10BTC.

Thanks for mocking him.   Saves me the effort.  It's amazing--breathtaking--how fucking ignorant some people are in the world.  In general,  not about altcoins in particular.

Only you can know your intentions;  none of us can.  See how that works?  No one here is sending you shit.  Listen to what people are telling you.

That's pretty high, but it's within the normal range.  As the price goes towards the moon it's only going to get worse, too. 

Kinda makes you want to NOT send bitcoin, doesn't it?

The only ones I watch are dash and doge, and they're down just a little.  Bubble deflated a little, maybe,  but hasn't popped.

Meanwhile,  bitcoin is over $1700.  Crazy!!

Great movie, which you misquoted horribly.   Lol

OP, throwing a tantrum provably doesn't work on this forum,  and you just open yourself up to abuse,  which is what you're getting.   This forum doesn't ban scammers or extortionist, and you're taking that whole fucking debacle out of context anyway.

Before anyone goes crucifying OP for this opinion, I'd like to say I fully agree with it.  Being over-leveraged has brought down banks, hedge funds, and individual investors for as long as it's been possible to borrow investment money.  He is right, because the volatility in crypto should be a huge indicator that you shouldn't use margin to finance trades.  That's just pure insanity.  It doesn't surprise me that these exchanges promote doing this, but Jesus.  Don't buy on margin!

Buy bitcoin, sell all the others.  That's my advice, and it'll be the same advice 5 years from now, when your list is populated with shitcoins-du-jour having different names.  They're all shitty and they all should be sold to buy bitcoin.

Bitcoin is at an all time high.   Enough said.  You must be in the parallel universe where it's at an all time low.

Bitcoin is doing just fine,  drama aside.   As mentioned above,  the altcoins are just being inflated to a ludicrous level.

What exactly were you confused about?  There are whole threads devoted to spelling out all the rules here, and threads where people explain the rules to noobs.  All it takes is a modicum of willingness to read, but it seems most people here don't have the willingness or ability to do so. 

I'd say most "new" accounts are alts, and a welcome PM would be wasted on them.  What they ought to do is lock the forum and not allow any new users.  Sounds harsh, but this place has turned into a cesspool of shitposters.

I had to LOL a little at this comment.  This thread is producing the sound of crickets.  Not surprising, since probably most people on this forum have never studied economics--and I've taken some college-level econ courses, and I can't remember jack shit about Keynesian stuff.  I recall my profs mentioning it, but I recall even more strongly that I was sweating my ass off because the classroom had no air conditioning and it was summer.

I didn't understand a word of what OP wrote here.  But perhaps it's too late in the day, and my neurons have exhausted their daily supply of chemicals.  Maybe the meds aren't working. 

Also, I don't trust economists.  Any of them.  Collectively, they are much like meteorologists and are frequently so far off the mark it's laughable.

WAT??  While I do think we may be a bit too high to buy in at this second,  $3000 isn't too small an amount to do it with.  And I'd definitely stay away from the shitcoin market,  which is overheating like every car I've ever owned.   I say do it.  I just bought a small amount myself and if I had more dough I'd be all over bitcoin.  Like a friggin' cheap leisure suit.

OK, I just resent it.  Let me know if you got it.

And boy, the bitcoin got confirmed pretty damn fast.  Thanks for not being cheap on the fee.

That's odd--as far as I saw, it only gave me the option to send AUD and I put it in as USD.  And there was a friggin' fee for doing this as well.  
I think it did the conversion automatically--that's definitely never happened to me before.

Sure, send it back and I'll see about changing it.

Got it (though it hasn't confirmed yet).  I sent $23.85 via PayPal F&F.  Let me know if all is good, and thank you!
