Yes. This kind of hedging strategy in order to minimize risk actually makes a lot of sense.

Yes, there is a reason why I'm still in the game, despite losing 700,000+ XMR in hacks, probably the biggest loss ever.

That's a considerable sum to lose , have you found out how it happened?

Sorry for the lose, I lost 1000+ bitcoins once myself in the early days

Can this be tied to any of the bigger sell offs or extended down markets?  Time frame?

I have friends who have probably lost even more, I had a pile of btc in UK exchange that scammed everyone years before gox..

Luckily they were pretty cheap back then so it was still possible to buy more, more recently I lost a pile when Bitfinex stole them...

The benefits still outweigh the losses overall  but it's near impossible to trade without exposure to some level of risk...

You can just hodl but that's pretty boring sitting on a stack of coins waiting for the value to appreciate ...

Can you explain? I'm sure we'd all be very interested.

When XMR breaks the ATH what do you guys think is likely to happen?

Is it likely to continue on upwards or dumps to buy back cheaper?
Or do the whales simply decide how high it goes?

Yo guys. I bought back in a considerable amount at $4.80.
As all other ICO's have gone to shit and btc falling, we are in a runaway market.

It will surpass Litecoin (~$15).

that's why you hodl but also invest your time and efforts in improving the community, with whatever skills you have. whether that is developing, accepting monero in your business, selling alpaca socks, raising awareness writing blogs or something, educating others on how to use it, etc. if your skill is a trader then you trade too.

I do not recall when I have seen such a Monero shortage in the lending markets. Looks like there are massive short positions built. If the margin calls hit us, the price will go to incredible heights. On the other hand, if there is a huge dump, there are takers to it (covering of the short positions).
Interesting to watch where are we heading. Personally I do not care much but I still have my popcorns and diet Coke ready for the show.

Have you paid attention on the fact that it is the fat people that drink diet coke only.

That being said, I prefer diet also because the regular coke do not make me feel young again but just tired.

Usually after new ATH price dont go under last ATH. So should stay over 0.022.

Yes, the amusing part is seeing  people waddle into KFC or McDonald's and order practically the entire menu and a diet coke to wash it down.....

The mind boggles sometimes...  Cheesy

Any difference with Mexican Coca-Cola (cane sugar instead of HFCS)? Curious.

You can definitely tell the difference in taste.
I had a Mexican Coca-Cola recently and it was delicious. Much better than the high-fructose corn syrup used in the American drink.

As for the price of Monero, I'm glad to see us back around the price of Ethereum.
I'm not sure we will get back to the 0.02 price level right away, but it may happen eventually.
Now might be a good time to invest in XMR actually.
