    I’m clearly out of my depth here. What does that mean?

    $400 million worth of sell orders for when the price hit $40,000. The price hit $40,000, those sell orders were filled but it didn’t affect the price. It just kept going up. This means the buying power was absolutely overwhelming. You’d expect a large sell off to mean a dip, but that didn’t happen.

    $40.3k at the moment - interesting times

    Balladman, cafcpolo, Glovepup, thanks all guys for your advice. It's the age old conundrum, investing. Clearly everyone wants to buy into a sure thing, and there's no such thing. With Cryptos it has appeared to be easy money for many, but I fear a bubble bursting. 

    I know I wouldn't risk losing enough money to jeopardize the house purchase, but investment growth is so minimal right now. Just heard today the interest rate in bank account Santander 123 is dropping from 0.6% to 0.3% in April. Of course it's instant access. These super low rates trigger interest in alternative options, but I guess the knowledge you have is invaluable to reduce risks. 
    I am a pure novice.  Only been looking into it for a number of days / a few weeks, for 3 reasons:
    - My company has started integration with blockchains (IOTA) 
    - A few friends had started to make a bit of money
    - I have a business idea for making Crypto more accessible as co-operative 'gaming' for groups of friends. 

    It will take up a LOT of time if you want to do it properly.  Due the volatility, the art is joining at the lows and leaving at the highs as the prices WILL fluctuate so dramatically.  This needs to be done in an automated way as the high and lows can and will happen overnight.

    The simplest way seems to be to find a source who you trust (there are tons of options here online) and go with their analysis with some thought and gut feel from you. 

    If you are looking for an investment vehicle which offers more than savings, but is little less risky, why not try something like an equity index fund.  I have one with Vanguard for almost exactly 3 years and has a returns of 35% .  Of course this is not without risk (and I am not a financial advisor) but feels better to allow people who are dedicated and experienced in analyzing the markets than some home taught guys on a charlton messgae board (I mean me here, no offence to anyone else here)

     Cadarno (ADA) also storming overnight to 10% increase. 
    Cardano is on fire at the moment. I really don't get it
    Solid people behind it, 5.5% staking rewards, project with a clear use case and road map. Criminally underpriced when it was single digit priced, and I brought a shedload 
    Pretty huge max suppy and still doesn't even have smart contracts yet though. It is a solid project, but a lot of it is built on words rather than actions.

    Saying that, it's just pumped another 26% and overtaken XRP market cap! You taking any profit or running it?

    Running, going long on this one.

    Could cash out the staking rewards which would be ok, but I was in this one for 2-3 years

    Does ADA staking lock up your stake for any time frame? This is one thing I hate about ZIL, staked ZIL are locked up for 2 weeks. I've got a decent sized position here but probably stake 10% of it and have the rest with a trailing stop-loss as I'm worried about bitcoin dumping and taking everything with it.

    20 days till first stake pays then every 5 days. You delegate so you can pull them at any time and move to a new pool or just sell
  • Any of you experts got thoughts on Dogecoin? 
  • Sponsored links:


  • By no means an expert, but Doge has an unlimited coin supply, there’s no market cap and one address owns nearly 30% of the current supply... It was originally created as a joke and is now just a massive pump and dump imo
  • Any of you experts got thoughts on Dogecoin? 
    Stay away. As @CAFCsayer says, it’s a pump and dump with deliberately terrible fundamentals. The dump that’s gonna catch a lot of people is going to really harm the crypto space’s reputation. Fucking Elon musk

    So say hypothetically if someone put 20 quid into Dogecoins for a laugh a few months ago and could now sell them for about 400 quid...

    then sell it and put it in ethereum.
  • I'd wait for elons next tweet and then bin it 
  • Any of you experts got thoughts on Dogecoin? 
    Shitcoin, avoid. As @cafcsayer says, it was created as a joke. People trying to pump it to $1 but it won't get there. You'll be able to make some good money on it if you catch it at the right time but price quite high for it at the moment.

    i dunno, if you dont really know what you're doing I'd strongly advise to get out whilst the goings good. Ethereum just hit and bounced perfectly on resistance/support flip (a resistance that had lasted for like 2 years), CME futures launching tomorrow and grayscale accumulating loads of eth. A much better use of that profit money right now.

  • closed my eth position and put in a bid at 1514.
    Brilliant shout. ETH down below 1514 and now on its way back up again.

  • If someone could build a bot that automatically puts on a massive leveraged position in doge any time Musk mentions the word "Doge" on twitter and then takes it off 3-5mins later it'd be a license to print money

    I’m pretty certain there are programs out there reading headlines/twitter etc and reacting to them accordingly
