If you're a relative newcomer or you have blown your stash thinking you have years to faff around and accumulate my advice is do whatever you can to accumulate 1 Bitcoin before it reaches 100k. Once that's reached and its on it's way to 200k it's going to become very difficult to accumulate for regular folks. If you can jumpstart your entry by borrowing 10k, 20k or 30k from the banksters do it - Have no fear! Buy $20 chunks as often as you can, pay no heed to the price. Ditch your daily $5 Coffee - that's $150 of Bitcoin per month, stop the pizza delivery, buy $15 of BTC instead. A few small changes in lifestyle and you will be surprised how much you're accumulating. During the journey you may want to punt a portion of your BTC on an Alt you believe will rise greatly - be careful though and do not panic if your alt crashes because 99% of the time they will recover to the price you bought in at.

The most important lesson I have learned (quite recently) is ignore the fiat price of BTC. Accumulation of BTC is what matters and I understand that was your intention but were unlucky to get caught out.  What I do these days is split my BTC in to HODL and trade the later being my accumulation account. I used to go all in but the system taught me a few lessons which includes patience.

All is not lost though, BTC could fall back to your sell price and even way below. Remember when it first reached 20k and it slowly dropped all the way down to 4.5. A lot of people got caught out in that downward spiral myself included. That's when I learned my lesson. If there is no substantial dip then you will have to buy back in again. Another strategy is look for a decent alt coin to buy (maybe something newish) and before you know it you're back to where you were. You do have options.

Hmmm, It's all become a bit to serious and the great wild west of Crypto now resembles a coffee shop full of beard stroking hipsters.
I've created a few shit coins and they actually helped newcomers in to the scene, some of whom are doing very well today.

Hey normie, go buy 2k on Bitcoin and receive a whopping 0.04 BTC. Or spend 200 bucks on Elon coin and get 2000. Looks good in the wallet at least.

Ahh yes, give me those ancient times of 2014 when we gained far more from Alts than BTC.

Don't feel bad. I have done a lot worse.
These days I HODL some BTC regardless of price and have a fund for trading on which I lose about as equally as I gain. 

Hmm, seems to me you enjoy being serf class and having your thoughts and speech monitored and controlled. Youtube has banned thousands of channels the past three years. The majority of those channels were simply opinions that go against the Neolib establishment. Every single day without fail there is a culling of channels. They are protecting their pals - the Dinosaur legacy media which I have no doubt you watch. as well as their political allies. Google is a major threat to liberty. They already act as massive censors and of course, they apply those principles to Youtube. YT must be destroyed one way or another.

I do like projects like this. Anything that helps dent totalitarian Silicon Valley I'm all for.

Good Luck

Interested to see if they achieved their ICO goal. 

Can I still get in on the ground floor of this. To late?

CAT is the best trader. I've tried them all, own a few others but CAT - once you get used to it is the best. Don't expect instant riches. Start small, experiment on v cheap but highly active coins and it will happen.
And you cant be shown how to use it. There isn't a specific method or instruction set to using CAT which took me a while to figure out. Be patient and you will find your way.
I also love sampey,,,

My own music. Yup, I'm a music producer although I don't release much these days. 

I sent you a PM 

Sorry to hear that. It's very unlikely you will get your BTC back - although I'm not 100% familiar with the Cryptopia situation.

My advice is to study new and about to be released coins for cheap ins. A couple of hundred bucks is all it takes and if that coin is successful then before you know it you have 1 BTC
If you're going to leave coins on an exchange at least choose one of the larger ones which have been around for some years - but even then there are no guarantees.

You can never go wrong with Litecoin or ETH for that matter. But for safety (if that's your thing) Litecoin always produces results if you have the patience.

At every opportunity your duty is to scream no to any citizenry considering Zuckerbergs Totalitarian coin.
Reject him and his social media. The man is a monster

Still here Sampey, still promoting your software
Put me back on the list..

Much easier to buy BTC back then and on this forum you could literally get them free. There's a lot of people out there (early adopters) who must have had hundreds and thousands of BTC passing through their hands. Imagine they kept their BTC. Most didn't, they were being traded for anything from CD's to gold. I got in to it early, was even mining BTC with a PC. left and came back a cpl of years later.

I came close to taking it on but the market changed considerably + I couldn't get a hold of whoever created the coin.
Coin is still on Yobit
