phycokiller Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I wouldnt invest in bitcoincash, if you have a good computer algorithm to trade with that might be worth while, but currently the only long term option is still bitcoin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, they are the ones that are going to be burned when all comes crashing down again. And it will happen. For the first time there will be another great hedge besides gold, called Bitcoin.

Bitcoin is not a long term option, Bitcoin is becoming more and controlled and centralised in China by the day where 3 miners control the vast majority of BC creation Bitcoin uses more electrical power than some small countries Bitcoin is very slow and costly Bitcoin is the Napster/AOL/betamax/laserdisc of the crypto world The likes of XRP or even Stellar are the chosen ones, the future Edited October 5, 2018 by Scottjouro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ks45672 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 On 10/2/2018 at 3:21 PM, Skeptic7 said: The bottom is ZERO...so isn't anywhere near 'bottomed out'. To be crystal clear...I'm not offering up advice, nor calling for it going to $0. Though certainly not calling its current level 'the bottom', as you seem to have done. Plenty of room between its current level and $0 to find plenty more bottoms. Stated this many times on the Crypto threads...the trend line is down and has been all year, with lower highs on the bounces and lower lows on the trounces. My opinion is that it will continue its merry way down...to the chagrin of many. Clear enuff 4 ya now? Nope.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeap...the THB 120 high was driven by speculators on the back of a rumour it was going to be listed on Conbase (Coinbase)...and the as with the vast majority of cyryptos at the time...no real world use case... fast forward about 10 months, XRP/Ripple went in real " production" with 3 FI's, is tied up with SBI Holdings in Japan who will be using Ripple Software and XRP as a bridging currency for international transfers, also rumours of an allience with "Swift" and is dealing with central banks... Do a bit of research on Ripple plans, and XRP usage a a bridging asset...and you will understand why i am saying they are "chosen ones" The recent rise in price upto beginning of October was also speculation... XRP is a few years hold ( 2 to 3 years), more production contracts signed, more volume in XRP, prices will go up...i have no doubt the value of XRP will increase, its a question of whether the stable price will be a $ 1 coin or a $ 1000 coin or something in between It also been stated Ripple will become the microsoft of the crypto world https://dailyhodl.com/2018/10/04/ripple-will-use-xrp-to-become-the-microsoft-of-crypto-says-investment-firm-ceo/ https://www.forbes.com/sites/michaeldelcastillo/2018/09/04/ripples-trillion-dollar-man/ Edited October 6, 2018 by Scottjouro 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

how241 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Until this crypto market grows in size, expect big price swings as it is a very small market compared to stocks or even gold. Easy to manipulate. If your a long term holder that shouldn't really matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
