Why all that FUD?
Are you really such a fearful being?
Fear Uncertainty and Doubt (FUD) rule your life?
It makes no sense at all to me.
Granted - you are sad now, because you bought in for a too high price; a lot of us did, when we saw the meteoric rise by sudden interest in SHLD; we went into panic buying, instead of calmly evaluating the situation. Buying into a pump means to sell during the pump - otherwise you'll end up holding coins until the next pump.
But you know that, don't you?
And yes, I understand you, because it is the same for me. I bought SHLD, and went into a beautiful weekend - only to realize, that the coin I believed in, and thus put my money into, had been FUDed into bits.
Now you look at your portfolio, and you think, someone else must be responsible for your (intermediate) loss. But until you sell those coins below the price you bought them, you are not actually in the minus, really. Sure, with more patience, you could have bought the same amount of coins now for less BTC, sure. But you have no patience.
By now threatening the dev, unloading your emotions, FUDing as much as you can, and having the attention span of a 30 seconds advertisement, ... you will further harm your own investment. You are a complainer, you make other people responsible for your own lack of luck, cleverness, and financial talent.
That makes you powerless, by the way. Pointing to others to take your responsibility, and to change a situation ... makes you powerless, it's them who have to change your life's luck. But they won't because they have their own life to live, and movie to play in. Instead I suggest you consider to take your life back; take responsibility for yourself, and also for your wrong decisions - then you get your power back, because then you are back in the driver's seat of your own life.
To boil it down to your investment:
If you think, the coins will inevitably go down, then sell now, at a loss. That protects you against that doom that you make up right now. But please then sell all SHLD coins, and don't come back, it's better for your psyche. Trading also means to take losses, but still continue. The BTC that you make with selling SHLD now will be less than you put in originally - but it will enable you to invest into something else, and soon you will be in the plus again, if you have a bit of luck. The gains in other coins will quickly make you forget this bad luck here, promised.
If however, you think, that SHLD is as promising - as you thought when you bought those coins - then buy more now. The price is low.
If you are undecided, then sit it out. Or sell some only to cut your losses a bit, or buy some only, to lower your average buy price.
What comes down, goes up again. At least for most freshly born coins.
In the long run, ALL altcoins are doomed to be worthless, we all know that. (Even BTC is not insured against price drops, by some higher power).
There will always be a better coin, I don't believe in any particular altcoin anymore, in the long run. A year from now, we will be holding very few of the currencies that everyone so strongly believes in right now. Just because there will be better ones then.
But SHLD is only a few days old. So there is a high probability for at least one more pump, and then you can sell your SHLD at the price that you bought them.
There is, however, another interpretation of that FUD of yours - pure evil.
You are not invested, and don't plan to - but you don't want this coin to succeed.
Or you are not invested yet, but want to - and for that you want to lower the price.
I don't know what is real. It might be a combination of all, or even a third reason that I don't see at the moment.
But can't you see how much you put your identity, your bitcointalk handle into embarassment here? How many identities do you have in bitcointalk so that you can afford to spoil the reputation of this one that you are using right now?
So, dear trolls, I ask you to rethink your life - perhaps you are wrong in cryptocurrencyspace at all?
What about doing something else for 24 hours, instead of focussing on your loss here, and coming back to this thread every 3 hours, to unload more of your infantile emotions.
In the end, you will be celebrating if the price has gone back up - visualize that moment, and send your wish to the universe :-)
The universe is listening to everything what you do, and gives you more of what you focus on. So focus on good things, and they will appear in your life.
If you want to be a useful contribution to this scene, then change your bitcointalk handle now to a more positive one. Think what you can do, to help the price go up again. There is plenty to do.
Dev, you are great, that you don't participate in this FUD. Please stay out of it. Don't even answer to it.
Work along your ideas, and schedule, and tell us how you think, people could help SHLD.
Until I checked today, I thought, you might need to post more often - but actually you don't, you have been sufficiently active, really.
I am looking forward to the roadmap.
And one good aspect is in all this: Each time a troll curses in this thread, the coin appears at the top of the announcements subforum again. Even bad publicity ... is publicity.
Good luck to you, to us all, and good luck to you, trolls - may you also get what you most wish for in life.
