Good one, mate. I've already converted my xrps too when it reached $.60. I don't wanna be greedy anymore even though some speculated it will gonna reach $1 to $2. Target profits were hitted, I am already in a ba good profits too after holding some of it for so many months.
 
 And for your btc, well $20k is soon gonna hit. I've sold 30% already of my holdings when it reached $19k and probably waiting and holding some part of it again.

 
 Perhaps, I will still hold if that new ATH for btc gonna reach. I converted some already and I am contented with my profits when it reached $19k.
 
 
 I've known bitcoin way back 2018 and things have already been changed in my life for the past 2 years. What more if 10 years from now? I won't deny the fact that bitcoin helps me in my financial way of living with of course good investment management plan.
 One thing is for sure after 10 years, that I keep on holding some of my btc and will still be a part of this growing and advance technology.

Whatever you call it, one thing is for sure. It is the first cryptocurrency that was invented to change the way traditional financial and payment system works. It is beyond that of "digital gold" because aside from considering it as a store value, we can now purchase something using bitcoin.
 
 I think it is more reasonable to call it as "digital money" rather than digital gold. There is so much difference from "gold" and btc in different aspects. Though both are good for investments.

Madami sa atin ang nagulat talaga at isa na rin ako doon. Ayoko ding mag judge doon sa naging isyu nya pero may malaking punto c @cabalism sa lahat ng sinabi niya dito. Isa akong signature participant  at sa totoo lang mahirap mag rank up at mahirap makahanap ng campaign dahil magbabase sila sa pagtanggap ng participant base sa iyong reputation at quality of posts.

 Isa ako sa nagsumikap from noob to full member at nakakapanghinayang lang din na mapupunta lang sa wala ang lahat ng pinaghirapan sa pag build ng good reputaion of account dito sa bitcointalk forum kapag gumawa tayo ng hindi kanais nais na gawain.

Hindi rin maiiwasan na ang pagkakamali ng isa ay maging dahilan ng kawalan ng tiwala nila sa mga kapwa natin pinoy. Ang ibig kong sabihin ay ang bad reputation ng isa ay pwedeng makaapekto sa pangkalahatan. Sana ay masettle ito at mapakinggan din natin ang side ni asu.

Finally seeing new ATH. Almost $20k touched from the past few days and then it has a correction again down to $18k. Others speculated bitcoin is just started and can go high up to $360k. And that $1m predicted by John McAfee by the end of 2020.

And because bitcoin is so powerful thus the massive growth has been taken place. It's possible to see more than $20k as it touched $19,800 last time. Good thing I still have half of my holdings and I can see another fruit of labor profits coming soon. So, yeah cheers beloved long term hodlers!

Remember that all new "hype" in crypto industry has been attacked by scammers. ICO's reputation werr taken down because it was actually ruined by those fraudsters and most of them now were just created for scam purposes. Same with defi projects today. Hype were too fast and they are targetting the defi loan projects where in those tokens will  be created to be offered as a loan not knowing that the coin were fake and can not be traded with crypto exchanges.

Saw this latest news about defi projects were exposed via telegram screenshots and how they manipulate the price. And how they make a plot.

Different styles with different btc enthusiasts.
Some just wanted to hold btc for a long time because it is more easier than doing some technical analysis, volume charting monitoring, etc. However, everyone has a one goal that makes sense. Whether you hold btc for long term or you trade it, we all are aiming for "a good profit".

I, myself prefer long term trading now rather than doing margin and swing trading. And whatever path a trader may choose, the essense of doing it right to accumulate profits is more significant

You are also missing the point that bitcoin is volatile and that the target profit will always gonna reach though it takes time.  Others also sell off at a particular target price because there is a choice of "holding" it even in a longest period of time. Btc doen to $18k again and itnhardly reach $20k at this point , it  bounce back.

The thing is bitcoin will always have a good value in the future. Certainly that more people and institutions are joining as btc enthusiast, too.

I remember those times when I was a newbie in trading, too.
 
 My brother is my mentor, and he used to teach me not personally because we are far away from each other. And it's a struggle for  a newbie to learn every word via pm only. My first liquidation was of course my unforgetabble moment. I don't have any idea about stop loss back then, i used 50x to 100x leverage which quickly liquidated my entries. And to think I do not have any ideas before about money balancing which ate up my whole fund.
 
 But, there's always a mistakes and a first time experienced for everyone. Which of course may lead us for a better trading. Without anyone's idea and techniques combined with our own experience, we can not definitely learn.

This one is some kind of unique game. It will gonna launch soon so we may try out this new game . In fact, it is more fun to know about how this marble racing works , well the picture showed like a golf game . But I realized they called that circle the hamster wheel.
 
 I also like the idea of how they plan their fairness to works which they will gonna provide a live video stream to ease the doubt of the players that the race is not pre recorded as well.

 Honestly, got my profits last week when it hit $19k.
 
 And what will I do with my profits? I saved up some to buy another bitcoin when it will gonna dump again.  And another part of the profits, I actually planning to sell some items here related to christmas gifts, etc. Since it is a peak season, I wanted to get this opportunity to buy some "in demand products" this month. Trying to use my btc's profit to be resourceful.

 Be careful looking at some ICO. There's many fake Libra ICO circulating online, promoting it in social media like facebook, twitter but remember that Libra hasn't any official announcement about their launch, so ICOs aren't feasible at the moment, too.
 
 Here's the recent updated news from them.
 
 There's still so many political and some regulations that their governments pointing issues to Libra. If they'll have a solution to that, they wouldn't be a problem launching it in the future.

 You should only invest on those altcoins that are already been old and established or has a good reputation.
 Seems you are questioning the potential returns of all the altcoins. Have you forgotten that there are altcoins existing in the crypto market that gives a good profits without a doubt? 
 
 You are missing the altcoin investment advantage. The safety of investment always depends on what ways you will gonna do to make your coins safe;
 
 

• Choose which altcoins to invest, wisely.
• Keep your own keys
• Store, trade it in reputable crypto exchange

That's what I've noticed too when I visited the website. When I opened the table theres only one table that has 1 player. The rest was empty though it is understandable for now because they are still new and just promoting there websites.

But I think you still need to do some  effective promotional style to gain more players, improve your layout, make some welcome bonus offers or do some signature campaigns to promote it.

But anyway, good luck hope these suggestions will reach it out to you for future success.

There's still a chance that it may go back to your target price.  Accdg to coingecko ethereum price as of today is $575. Near to your target or you can now accumulate some of it. This volatile market will always gives you a chance to wait and do your purpose.

Eth 2.0 is approaching and I am also optimistic about this as it can lead to another bull run for eth.

This is not advisable. Leverage trading for long term like 3 to 6 months is a high risk.
You better think well. For example you do 1% leverage for long entry position and you will wait for 3 months before you close it, I can't imagine how much is the fee for that or how can your entry will react to huge dump as liquidation will always be possible even you incorporate the lowest leverage.

Why don't you just do margin/leverage trading in those exchanges you have mention? I use bitmex all the time.

And if you wanted to do that in 3 to 6 months, why don't you just long term trade. The normal trade in an exchange without the leverage? Much better than leverage trading.

Well, its a vague question, OP.

But the way I understand it, stable fiat currency should be put in bank for safety? Have you forgot that we have "crypto exchanges/wallets" that are our bankd for saving and holding crypto coins? Whether it is bitcoin, or usdt.

And what is the problem if we freeze our bitcoin and it is volatile? That volatility makes it more special, give  us more opportunity to make some profit. There's always an option to "hold" if volatile market as sideways or dump market is your problem.

His tweet has a point. If a particular regulated exchange was hacked and users has a KYC submjtted, infos, credentials, address were already exposed to them. In fact, that was the disadvantage that other users might not aware of.

Bitcoin regulations were already implemented in some countries, if this will gonna happen worldwide. How can we say we are free to control our own bitcoin? For some reason, it is better to implement some laws about cryptocurrency usage if we are thinking to minimize fraudsters and criminal activities.

I actually have two accounts on Bitmex. It's possible to make multiple accounts on them as I do different strat or some hugging strat for my leverage trading. You should now focus on your trading with different accounts as you need more time to monitor your entries.

Well, I guess you got the answer now so you may lock this thread up.
