Please let the next 3 or 6 months have the same increase

Yes, was watching the trade view when it just stopped.

Be extra careful guys! We don't want a $5 wrench unlocking our wallets!

Good advice.
I always said I have more than one bitcoin. That was a pretty safe statement last year, but now...
Give it a couple more years and I'll be equivalent to an old guy with lots of money under his matress. Quiet the target.

Too late in the USA....like-kind is going away for crypto....in 2017 no less...fun times in the Republican 2017 tax bill...it is toast

there is talk also of BCH when it hit the blockchain (around $280) also counted as income....along with BTG and the 22 other forks

That's so true. Some time ago (maybe "months"? lol) I wouldn't mind acknowledging I had "a few" Bitcoins. Now even ANY "a few" means a lot of money.

Feels good and comfortable to be here among guys that have made MUCH MUCH more and talk about it... But I don't think it is something that should even be hinted out there in "real life" anymore.

He'll make the transactions run on time.

Golden observation right there.

Yeah. But it's so hard not to brag...

Try to think of it as your porn collection.

So fees are getting too damn high right now. While waiting for LN, what alt would people recommend for transferring $200-$1000 worth? My default would be lightcoin, but maybe there's something better?

I almost always use Litecoin for that. I guess some others like XRP would also work for that.... but my conscience refrains me to touch em.

Anyway, I try to avoid transfers unless strictly necessary. Would love when the time comes and that's not an issue anymore.

Not sure if current volatility of those alts make it so obvious choice currently though... but YOLO!

Sign them up yourself.  I know one Grandma that trades on an exchange.  She also ripped into some young guy who was talking up Bcash.

So what became of our slavish adherence to that Goldman Sachs lass's predictions? She started off calling the peak at $4800, then moved up and now seems to have given up and gone silent.
