That's a dangerous game to play, lol. I am about 50/50 on trying to day trade.... too volatile for me.

I snagged some just under $900 today. It was hovering between 850-900 for a bit before shooting back up to $1000. My original ETH buyin was when it was at 690. I goofed buying way more bitcoin at that point and I'm definitely hurting on that.

All in all I only have about a grand invested in this and just wanted to get my feet wet and quell any FOMO (cause I really did miss out as I watched bitcoin soar from 2k->3->8->10->12->19 and idly watched) . I can't imagine actually investing any real sum of money into this with how volatile it is. The dump today was crazy, but then again so was the 100% jump I got on ETH in less than a month.

watching litecoin now too. I don't own any but might do a small buy in if it gets near $150

Litecoin was $4 a year ago and stayed that way forever. Eth was $10 a year ago. #soldwaytoosoon

that's quite the blanket statement. gambling? sure. literally nothing? well, a bunch of the vapor ware that is just an idea and a white paper sure. there are also legitimate projects.

its easy to be a contrarian when all you need to do is put in some one-liners.

I thought you guys were the contrarians.

All crypto currencies and falling down rapidly. Is this begging of end?

Just doubled down on ETH. Need a couple older Ferrari's to complete the set and building the rocket car really cut into my profits from the last time I dumped.

So if I want to capitalize on this and do not want to wait 8 days for Coinbase to take money from my bank, how do I get in on some of these non coinbase coins now without waiting?

Buy with your CC on CB to get those funds ASAP. The. Transfer to whatever exchange you want to buy on.
