Well, no one can really say if it will or not. The run has been pretty crazy though, but Litecoin has always proven to be quite stable for a while now, so I may not really expect any serious drop in price to that extent at this moment. One good thing about the Litecoin network is that it works just exactly as the speed light when it comes to transactions.

Even if you are going to get out, it is realistic to get out when you feel it is right. Since the pump, I have been trading litecoin and the good thing about it is that with the charts, you can easily predict its movement for the next run after every correction which so far has proven to be quite a strong market. I won't be surprised the extent at which LTC may be going.

Lol, we won't need to remember, it could happen and it may not. However, no one can be too cocky about the price right now. We surely do not know what can happen next and from the angle of all things right now, even $50,000 is too much of a value to ask for at this stage.

I will rather keep all eyes opened though and see what will be happening next from here. The question is who would not want that ? I am not sure this would happen this year, but one thing I am sure of is that it is closer than we would expect most especially if bitcoin keeps going at this pace that it is going.

Right now, the market is very strong with the possibility of having a bull run any minute from now, then no one can really know absolutely when the next stage will hit.

Apparently, nobody did. I still remember how a lot of us were discussing on this forum just some few weeks back on how we expect to see bitcoin value reaching $15000 before the end of December while some think it would be early next year.  I am so optimistic that bitcoin may probably continue the huge bull run even in coming years. Nevertheless, only altcoins with relevance and products will end up staying in the game in the long run.

It is always a very good thing to diversify. You cannot say the exact future of any coin and there is a possibility of two of them growing in the long run. I have always considered holding any coin with the possibility of a huge prospect in the long run.

It is an investment, some may turn out good, some may not, but it is worth the risk in the future as all the coins I am holding may turn out nice. Personally I would rather go for Ethereum first as it is at least been stable for a while now and it seems a coin to hold for long considering that it would always have a space in the crypto ecosystem in the long run.

XRP on the other hand is also a good coin. It is a banker's coin, centralized sort of and then it may end up getting adopted by bankers in the long run which could spike the value up in the future, so I may just hold some of it too.

You have said it bro, the risk are so much greater which is why you should consider that and not go all in. You have been doing pretty well for yourself with the stocks and I would not advise you to pull it all out. We are all optimistic that the crypto world is going to be huge, but you have to consider all the risk as well.

Pull out part of what you have and invest in crypto. No one knows the future but at least, you will be happy knowing you diversified and less worried. No exchange is 100% reputable since anything can happen and you can lose your funds. They are not decentralized exchanges, and if any bullshit happens, there is no way you can get your funds out.

However, so far, I can only count on bittrex when it comes to security. I have not tried other ones, but from reviews, Binance is not bad as well.

I do not know how long is going to take, but I noticed bittrex will soon be introducing Margin trading and that should also give them an edge. How soon is something we do not know but may be pretty soon. Asides that, I feel bittrex is still better when it comes to the user interface and some tools that can make traders to do analysis easily which was the main reason I switched to bittrex anyway.

Support was good but now it is getting shitty which is expected considering the fact that they are being bombarded by mails when they decided to lock out people's account without notifying them.

If you can get some pretty good margin, it is definitely a good way to make some good cash. I have done some arbitrage but really it can be crazy. Some I really made some bucks from the huge sellout on one platform which I was lucky to get to know. When someone who holds a lot sells a huge chunk at once, it definitely affects the value at one exchange and if you can take advantage of that, you can make some crazy bucks from it.

LOL. Yeah right! Bitcoin? That is absolutely one coin you may not even want to tamper with when it comes to arbitrage. First and foremost, the time in between transactions, the transaction fee and the volatility. I can imagine how crazily anyone who wants to attempt something like this will end up sweating from the inside of them. Like you said, it is best to watch out for some low volume coins as they are really the ones that can pay off in cases like this.

There is no point looking for an expert trader here. He can do all things by himself as long as he is holding and not trading. The most important thing is for the OP to understand that the crypto world is volatile. You may buy at a certain point today and then it goes down tomorrow.

But that does not mean it won't still rise up back, so there is no need to ever panic. ETH is good and it is in a good dip now which makes it a good buying point. BTC has had some runs and now with the corrections, I feel it is a good time to also buy.

I would not say much about XRP as it is not my thing to tongue lash any coin, but be sure you are doing some research and you are comfortable with any coin you are buying.

So many people are waiting for some huge price corrections before the end of the year. It could happen as no one knows what the future holds but at least, now is all we have and we may expect corrections and end up not seeing one. If the price should go down, then we just buy more, if not, then we just keep holding. However, bitcoin in 2018 will really shake the earth.

I am really looking forward to that price correction bro cause that may be the chance we may get to buy in this low before hitting the mainstream. In less than 24 hours, seeing such a crazy movement is alarming but I will definitely get used to it for now, because this is not crazy yet. With big players hitting the game sooner, we can start seeing how things will roll in a way we have never experienced in the crypto world.

People have been terming the short corrections as the one that is expected. The difference here is that the rise is still ongoing and that is why they are pretty fast and a lot of traders are busy shorting. I would really be very careful because no one may really know the starting of the huge correction and as optimistic as we all are that we won't see something huge, anything can still happen.

Some exchanges like bithumb already have it as $19000 plus and we still have some quite good number of days before we get to the end of 2017. We cannot say what the end of the year is going to be like yet but anything can really occur. We have two scenarios that could play out; a huge correction happening or we keep seeing a huge ride to the moon coming 2018.

That was what most people really thought then and are still thinking till date. It is one thing that a lot of people till date will always live to regret and even today so many people in the future will still have the same story to tell. I was like you too anyway and I had the chance in 2010, it is life and most times, opportunity can only come once.

I am still lucky I did not blow my chances back in 2013 though, it just only had to shift my level of earning a bit farther than it would have but I still do not regret anything. Just know that you will end up better than some in the next few years.

Binance has been a good exchange and you may really need to relax and if they tell you the network is congested, then it is really congested. It seems the ETH network has been congested for some days now anyway which is even affecting EtherDelta now. This has been as a result of huge level of transactions going on than it can handle..

I have been using Binance for a while now without issues. There is really no point for the OP panicking as he will end up getting his funds out of there eventually anyway. There is a lot of congestion that has been on the ETH network for some days now and I am sure that is one of the reasons they are concerned. So, it is better to just chill out and allow the congestion to die down but he will surely get his funds.

It has been a crazy few days honestly, and that shows some concerns. The reason why today, people still prefer just leaving their funds in bitcoin rather than in some of these other cryptos os because they have not really experienced so much that can really make the devs to see that there is still a lot of work to do.

It might be temporary but the truth is people tend to forget the number of years Bitcoin have been in existence to correct some anomalies. Eth is just starting and the devs really still have some huge works to do on the network.

How will we even call a long time confirmation a crash ? It is normal to have congestion on a network and that goes for those who think Ethereum network is faster and cannot get congested which makes it better than bitcoin. Just the ordinary crypto-kittens have proved such people wrong now. However, it cannot lead to ETH fall, but maybe they will have to do something about an upgrade soon.

The rise of IOTA presently has been a very huge one and it has been crazy honestly. I was even lucky to get some earlier before the bullish run started and that seems a good huge profit right now. However, I have been searching the news to really look at what is driving this coin to the top in that manner within a short period of time. The pump is huge and kicking all spots to the top 4 was even crazier.

Not really sure, but I guess we will just have to wait and see how long it keeps on with the bull run eventually. For now, I feel FOMOs are at work and they really would not want to miss out and I am afraid there is going to be a huge correction very soon. For those holding now, they better be on the watch out to quickly get out when the downfall starts.

How will anyone ever know that? We are not soothsayers and we cannot even see the future. Also, even if all the bitcoins are mined, that does not mean the value cannot keep increasing. Everything is based on the demand and supply. It is not a matter of belief that nothing will change; it is a fact that nothing will change after everything is mined as what we are seeing now is what we are still going to keep seeing.

However, by then, I believe bitcoin should have been fully solid in foundation with a lot of investors already in and a huge market cap by then, which would make us not to see all this FUDs, panics, high level of volatility and so on by then.

The value at this stage is what no one can definitely know. I am sure before then, a lot of miners would have given up and knowing that the difficulty may drop a little if that happens, companies like bitmain may end up being the ones enjoying mining by then. The fact is that a lot may have even changes before then as no one knows.

It is going to end up shitty as ever just like its fiat. Nothing will ever make it change and I am really looking forward to see how it ends up all playing out. Apparently, it would be the same all controlled currency, so he might just as well try to save himself some of the embarrassment now than later on. Only time will tell anyway how it all ends.

We cannot really be too quick to judge but based on the fact that it is still going to end up centralized, one may actually have to question if it would really have any effect in the long run. Time alone will tell us that but I am eager to see the turn of events anyway but I would not be too optimistic.

Greed is what has affected so many today in gambling. Once a gambler is greedy, that is the first step in not being able to control the impulse of trying to recover, and as this keeps going on, it starts draining their emotions, getting control of the way they think and then they end up chasing what they obviously will not be able to get.

The best way to ever gamble is to accept that you can lose a lot in gambling which is why it is better to not gamble what one cannot afford to lose like you said. Also, it is best to see that cash you are playing with as something you are paying to have some fun, just like when you want to go to the movies but here, you can just be lucky to win something big and if you do not, accept it and walk away.

Good for you! Never really had any lucky moment. The only time I could consider my lucky moment was when playing dice on cryptogames and then after long streaks of losses and already in a bet about 0.05, I took the craziest risk of continuing the bet to recover my loss.

My heart almost popped out of my chest before I could roll, and then luckily for me, I won that bet and since then, it has been a thug of war trying to gamble whenever such scenario plays out in my head.

Normally, if not for trading purposes, which is advisable for anyone to trade with what they can afford to lose, these exchanges are all centralized exchanges and anything can happen.

I personally would not want to wake up one day and the incident of what happened to MtGox, happening to most of these exchanges. Because of that anyway, I have learnt to use multiple exchanges and with the help of coinigy, I get to trade on all of them easily. Bittrex, poloniex, Bitfinex and Cryptopia are my options for now and I can keep myself going with these ones.

You almost got me lost bro  , with all those your statement. First and foremost, I hope you really know how to trade, so you do not get all your funds messed up at the end. That being said, it is just the normal rule of trading and you do not necessarily need tether to do all of that.

Tether however, is just an equivalent value of USD for those who may want to trade against fiat.
Bittrex is a trading platform and apparently, if you sell higher and buy back lower, you obviously already have some profit when the value increases.

If you want to withdraw back into fiat, you can just make use of any exchange based on your location and send your bitcoin from bittrex to the wallet. Simple! Mind you, you must get verified before you can withdraw on bittrex and you may want to do that first before you start trading.
