As the title states. Do you take the loss or move it into different investments that would still have a good BTC ratio? I think I'll put all of my BTC into Ripple for these reasons: - It has strong financial backing (Google, Andreessen Horowitz etc) - Disruptive technology without the Gov't heat (Bitcoin exchanges in China are closing, while Ripple gateways in China are opening) - The technology is everything bitcoin but more (faster, more secure, more functions etc) - From the above reasons, a high likely-hood of success/ price rise (therefore, making back my losses) Have you been tricked into thinking Ripple is a scam? http://crypt.la/2014/01/22/unexposing-the-ripple-scam-rebutting-ripplescam-org/Anyway, those are my reasons. What's your end game?

I'm just going to put a gun in my mouth ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) No seriously, I'm selling right now. I'm taking the same amount out as I have in. I'm still way ahead, but this saddens me. I've watched this market for about 2 years and it has never done this. When it would crash before it would jump right back. Now it's just a steady decline, followed by a steep decline, followed by more steady decline. ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif)

This has nothing to do with Ripple. I am merely asking for your exit strategy in regards to BITCOIN

Ripple? Does the OP think of this thread as Ripple Spam?
What is your end game if BTC crashes overnight? Buy more!

I'm still keeping as much BTC as I can but I'm getting my original investment of USD out. It makes me sick to have to do this but I can just hear the haters now with their Tulip/Ponzi scheme crap and talking to me like I got taken and saying they feel sorry for me and shit.

It's not the end of BTC, but indeed the recent events should prompt to diversify a bit. A good way is to do like the venture capitalists do: invest a bit everywhere you can feel some real potential. Just follow them on twitter: they are generally quite loud about their investment decisions because it's in their best interest to rally investors around businesses they have seeded. These guys have a very acute instinct when it comes to hand picking legit businesses with high potential and they have access to minute details of founders identities and whereabouts.

So do *not* follow venture capitalists or you would end up in misery like Marc Andreessen, you have been warned.

I'm actually doing a long position trade on Bitcoin technically, short term price drops will be nasty, but they won't affect me in the slightest, I'm going to be directly earning Bitcoins so I don't rely on price swings as much as other people and just adjust my prices.
p.s. I think Bitcoin is moving exactly as I thought it would this year, probably going to hit the $200 and then there will be a massive buy frenzy from the big traders.

You spoke of Marc Andreessen, a American entrepreneur, investor, software engineer, and multi-millionaire and co-founder of Netscape Communications Corporation. You say he is in misery? Bad Dog! LOL
