@ some writers here:
Please don't give that bad advises to a newbie by telling him, he should buy waves, only because you bought some without understanding how it works! Waves isn't a good investment. When people will understand, that the wave-exchange is NOT decentralized and that you give AWAY YOUR CONTROL over your coins when you use it, the price will fall back to a deep, stagnating level. Thats why BLOCK is rising very strong in the last weeks. BLOCK is the true decentralized exchange, which gives you FULL CONTROL over your coins. But I won't be that kind of fool to advise a newbie to buy some BLOCK now, because of the strong rise in the last weeks (even that I believe, that the price will increase further on...) but to give an advise at the moment for buying BLOCK seems a bit too risky. Not for longterm, but for shortterm. And I don't want to frustrate a newbie by a maybe loss of 30% in the next weeks. He won't care for a 300% profit later, because he would have quit the game before.
Be careful!
So you bought a lot of BLOCKS. Got it.
Low budget altcoins are risky anyways, you either have to install a bazillion scammy wallets that hack your desktop, or trusting the more obscure exchange sites located at the outer rim of our crypto universe. Been there, done that. Risk vs. Reward ratio. There's a reason not to invest monthly wages into stuff like that.
But back onto general advise. There are swing cycles starting at the end of a month, peaking at the middle of the month. Things calm down, things load up again. Related to payment days?
Today, a sunday at the beginning of a month, I am frustrated. Charts all red, actually a buying opportunity for picking up some winners that will gain +10% from experience, at least, on mean average. Try getting that return of investment each month anywhere else.
I'll have to investigate Waves versus Blocks further. Thanks for hinting out there are some differences.
