Another solid nights sleep followers by a nice jump in price. Again very surprised BTC-E has just been shrugged off completely. Seems bullish to me.

I have 100 btc I own from mining outright...only thing in is hobby/time/labor now...thus I will do like you and play with anything OVER that 100 btc...but
the hoard stays...my ONLY shot at a 'black swan event' or getting in on the equiv of "a venture capital deal' (like say big money hears about)

thus will feel less troubled if it all goes 'tulips' or beanie babies for the above...then if it goes up as I expect it will by holding.

Just something about 100 btc stake, that is my 'thou shall not pass'..I DID dump 8 btc off my 100 btc at the time last year at around 650 usd. to get knc liguidation
miners to mine myself out of the hole and continue mining ..but .let me tell
you mining that 8 btc back as the price went up to 1260 plus usd ...sucked......

So anyway my advice is 'stake out your bitcoin territory' in my case I NEVER thought I'd get 100 btc (esp the dark days of 2014 and 280 buck usd btc)...thus
that is my line in the sand.

Then do as you say....play with the rest above whatever your 'set' amount is.....its all about protecting the ego....if  you end up with BTC or crypto ...chump or champ

it will be one or the other in the end

Thanks Fakhoury.


My bitcoin talk account was hacked into in September (about the same time that Adam's account was hacked into). 

I made some changes, but based on your article, Fakhoury, I made a few more changes. 

If a hacker gets into another bitcoin related account that has value, it will take only a few minutes before you lose your bitcoin in that account.

And, even if the account does not allow them to withdraw for a few days, they can pretty much deplete your account within hours, just by pumping and dumping whatever value you  have in your account.

With the hardware wallets like Trezor, I would just ask. What happens when my Trezor dies down the road and the company that creates them no longer exists? Is there a way to recover my bitcoins from the seed in such a case?

No kidding. After long time considering buying one I finally did past week and I couldn't be happier now. Way better and more secure than my previous mess of having some in exchanges, some in software wallets and some in paperwallets.

Now I can only recommend to anyone that doesn't have one to buy one asap. It's a whole new dimension. There's really no reason not to have one except maybe for someone with less than 1btc.

I did buy a Ledger Nano S though, which is mostly the same than Trezor.
