Escobar PHM Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 21 hours ago, Dean Winchester said: I've put around $600 in. Currently sitting at $1800. I've only used $230 on Ripple. The rest is a lot more diversified and that has made me around 20% but the $230 for Ripple is now sitting at $1120. Got my target set for when I'll bail. If it gets above that I'll see how far it keeps climbing but if it starts lowering back down towards my target again then I'll close everything and leave happy as it will basically wipe out all my short term debt. This is my plan too. I'm all in on Ripple but its very volatile in the last 36 hours.. I'm about £2k up in 2 weeks with it and I'll be cashing in one of the 3 positions when it goes to $4 and sticks there or starts to drop. If it goes above $4 and doesn't look like dropping I'll keep it till it does.(which might take a while longer after the recent drops) I'm using it to pay off short term debt also. The problem being I have the short term debt of a mid size Caribbean island Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have gone from a small bitcoin holding to owning a spread of about eight altcoins in the space of a week! Reckon I'll be joining Gambler's Anonymous soon. This! I originally just wanted to stick some money into BTC and ETH for FOMO reasons but since they stalled, I've ended up in 12 altcoins. I'm way too diversified right now and will likely consolidate after this BTC bullrun to altcoins that IMO I can look to hold rather than jumping around day to day.

I keep feeling a bit negative about my overall total (blockfolio is great for keeping track of everything) but it's because I'm waiting for an ico distribution. Win, lose or draw I'm really glad I'm in an ico, really interested to see what happens once the coins are distributed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reassuring that it hasn't dropped too much and I really can't see them not adding the 2nd biggest capped coin to their site at some point but I think all the accusations with BCH did them no favours. Q4 report from Ripple should be interesting and still waiting on the partnership announcement with a "household name". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This happens all the time. Bitcoin shoots up, dips and corrects at a new lower high, consolidates then starts rising again. It's good to see money from the alts flowing into Bitcoin.

If you have your Bitcoin in Coinbase transfer it to Gdax then buy your Ripple through Binance, much cheaper and take an hour or two. Google this "coinbase to gdax to binance" The above all assumes your using Coinbase. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Gin Posted January 8, 2018 Share Posted January 8, 2018 Have my bitcoin in an Electrum wallet. Their flat fee was set at a tenner but I've punted that right down to £2 so it'll no doubt take an age to be processed. I already have a Binance account so yeah I'll be buying Ripple through that.
