    What’s worth putting money into right now? And how exactly does crypto work, how do you sell it back etc. New to this but it’s something worth getting involved in based on the stats.

    Thankfully I only got about 100 ripple I’m definitely selling that shitccoin once it gets to $2. I knew better to buy any from reviews but just because of some banks that said they were backing it I thought just in case it does explode I’ll get in on it early. It would be above 10$ by now if it was going to keep growing imo after the whole banks announcement hype Thats all ripple had going for it in 2018 and the hype is already dead. The 60% who own ripple will cash out soon once they realize the coin is at the highest it’ll get and it’ll collapse.

    Xmr, onion, (I think lsk is safe but not 100%), litecoin is a must in my opinion since it’s bitcoins Silver, Ethereum, Rlc (but not convinced on it yet), Req has potential, there’s more but just do your research and listen to some of the people here who has been doing this for a while

    I have 20 different cryptocurrencies written down on paper i keep my eye on daily. And every single one went down in value the last few days. Xmr was the only one to renound back over 400 but also going back in the 390s currently. These penny currencies that are going from .06 then 20 cents a few weeks later then dropping over night is the coins team manipulating the market making themselves rich i think. I hate to admit that but I’m thinking that’s going to be a trend. Thinking I’d rather pay extra money for some coins I know that want to become a top currency and are already stable. Idk guess its part of the game.

    The market taking another beating tonight. Litecoin back under 200. Most YouTube vids i watched About litecoin all claimed itll hit 1000 by the end of the year. Some said 3k. Ill be happy to see it at 500 tbh. Thinking about grabbing more ltc while its under 200 again. Glad i cashed out Some ltc and eth while over 1300 earlier for xmr. Wish i Would have sold req and Trx when they were at their peak. Live and learn i guess.

    Bro idk if I should be panicking right now or happy and buy some more. I feel another boom coming after this crash is over. Idk what it is just a gut feeling. I’ll be f----- if litecoin completely crashes though.

    Well the more popular coins are already going back up but the penny cryptos R.I.P idk if I’m ever f---ing with those again.

    I've got all the money i can spare to invest tied up in coins at the moment. Can't afford any more until pay day.

    I seem to have got into this at the wrong time and bought as soon as things started dropping considerably. I'm still convinced at will turn again for the better but its not a good feeling at the moment.

    honestly, best thing to do is turn off the computer or stop watching the charts.
    (i say that as i have 8 crypto windows open...not easy to do).

    trying to make moves while in a bloodbath is pretty difficult to do and odds are you'll end up f---ing yourself over.

    I'm going to buy some litecoin and XMR, and just stay away from this madness.

    i'd like to go on record by saying that Waves platform is the absolute worst platform in the world.

    Tried to grab WGR at 50% off... transferred btc, hit purchase at the optimal time, and it said i needed this bs "WAVES" gas for the transaction to complete. okay.. purchased their s-----y coin, clicked buy, clicked the price, confirmed.

    well..when clicking the price it automatically switched my action from buy to sell, so rather than swallowing up at 50% off, it sold all of my coins at 50% off.

    okay no sweat -- lesson learned. queued up another purchase for just under what i accidentally sold at. and i needed to buy more of their s-----y coins to complete the transaction.

    went through that process again and then the price had gone up 20% in the process.

    f--- this place f--- it to death.

    this was probably 10% my fault for trying to act in a hurry during a blood bath and comes right after i said not to make moves during it... i'm a prime example and a hypocrite

    I've kinda just done the same thing.

    I've got $100 in LTC that I'm HODL for.

    Pretty much everything else (except Tron as the value has dropped below the minimum trade amount) I have traded into Monero. A few other random coins floating around still that I am just going to forget about and hope they eventually race up. But yeah, LTC, XMR and ETH are pretty much all i have faith in at the moment.

    If you are still in REQ, I would hold. It looks like it should find support here, but it might be a while before it goes back to where it was the last couple weeks. I do not know enough about the coin though to make any long term prediction.

    At this point, I wouldn't sell anything. It's a bloodbath out there and holding is the only option. A lot of charts showing this should be the last dip of January and we should have a healthy rebound for February, but I question if anyone really has a clue.

    These days can be painful, but if you didn't luck out and sell yesterday, time to take some pain and hold. It has rebounded the previous 7-8 times with massive gains.

    Waves has been around for over a year but their new platform was released in beta during December (beta.wavesplatform.com). I still use the Chrome Client as the beta version tends to have some bugs still. Once they finish resolving these minor issues, they plan to do a $50M marketing campaign. They have around $500M sitting in reserves and have set up offices all over the world. My Blockfolio is 90% Waves and other Waves projects (COF, OCL, WCT) and I plan on throwing a significant amount at Reward MOB (RMO:emoji_sunglasses: or Simdaq in the near future. Was hoping for a healthy pump to before they go public at the end of this month. Now I feel the need to pick up some WGR for cheap!
