While you were all focused on BTC

a reply to: JinMI

Ha, yea? When will that be?

Hah...Yeah...That's the kicker isn't it? Looks like ADA is gonna do pretty well for a while.

I bought in at 2 cents, it wasn't always the bulk of my small portfolio. Given all the issues happening, I've been fairly content just holding my coins in wallets and watching the markets for awhile.

I'm not a day trader either. Few things I think are worth the buy/sell paradigm. The cryptocoin market doesn't work like that really, but many people think it does.

It's been my favorite from the start. It will be fun to see if they deliver.

I've been really thinking of picking up Reddcoin. I still may. The only hangup will be if entities decide to utilize it over their own currency.

a reply to: JinMI

Reddcoin was @ .008 yesterday, if any news is let out that any of the big networks are adopting this will go through the roof.
For me reddcoin was a "if" coin.

Oil and Gas companies are adopting block chain tech.

Weed smokers to sellers are adapting the block chain tech.

The crypto revolution.

This is some crazy snip.

The sec halted trading because it gained 6000%.

Consequently trading resumed later.

Investors have banded together to investigate them.

Seems some people think it might be a scam.

Every dispensary I talk to has a serious issue with local and regional banks refusing to process their transactions because they operate under federal regulations and any money coming in from legal pot is considered aiding in trafficking.

Right now Blockchain tech is the only method for them to get their transactions processed. My local dispensaries are all forced to deal in cash only right now. This could be a place that can shine so long as the feds continue to schedule marijuana like they do heroin.

Good investment opportunity to go with the larger pot coins.

I am going to watch it for awhile.

IDK they're out of canada.

Like which ones ?

That's why I was asking bout potcoin.

On the fence bout it.

a reply to: neo96

It would be more useful in the US.

Seems like their development and outreach teams are a bunch of lazy idiots because they have so few real business using their currency in an environment where they could dominate. Like a Green Bitcoin.

I'll watch it too, but like anything else in the pot industry, it sees to move at the speed of the people who smoke it.

WeedCoin, PotCoin, and a few others that are really obscure.

All of them seem to have the same level of lazy idiots running them though.

They have everything I could want in a niche coin, but their development and deployment sucks.

I'm definitely gonna watch it.

PotCoin is in limited supply of 420 million coins, with close to 217 million in circulation. With its recent transition to Proof-of-stake, investors can earn 5% annual returns on their PotCoins. One point to note is that PotCoin claims transaction speeds of 40 seconds, which are pretty impressive compared to those for Bitcoin.

Started with a vision of creating a ‘Silk Road’ for transactions in marijuana across the world, DopeCoin supply is limited to 200 million DopeCoins with about 111 million currently in circulation. It is also a Proof-of-Stake currency, where a 5% annual interest can be earned. The currency currently has a market cap of close to $1.5 million, according to coinmarketcap.com.

Definitely beats savings and money market rates.

Just might have to jump on the bandwagon.

a reply to: neo96

PotCoin Yes...BUT

I'm staying away from anyone who wants to create a silk road style system.

A stand-alone currency for the states and nations who have legal pot legitimately? Yes. But I'm not going to trade in coins that will end with a DEA knock on my door.

Ok so I won't be a DOPE

I just found this prediction model.

walletinvestor.com...

I don't know how accurate it really is.

Cardano

Ripple

a reply to: neo96

I also like QRL and QTum for their focus on Quantum resistance.

But I don't expect them to start doing well until after Quantum computing starts making more regular, larger headlines.

Quantum computing isn't at the forefront of anyone's mind. This includes most investors who are more concerned with 1-5 year spreads(and consider that long-term) instead of the changes that will come as a result of some of these technologies being ready for the quantum transition from the get-go.

The pump-and-dump market is the worst thing about cryptocoin exchanges. It's like the early days of the Dot Com bubble. Only a few real innovators will be left at the end of this. Everyone else will either disappear or be swallowed up by others.

Ripple is up around 20,000 percent in 2017, someone is interested.

Might get some ripple :-)

a reply to: purplemer

Look at stellar lumens too. Stellar has a product that is in use, and is around .50 cents.

Be sure to do your homework. 3 months ago I spent a ton of time finding ripple, stellar, reddcoin. Reddcoin was a shot in the dark, and still I am not sure if they will or even can be adopted as a tipping coin for social media.

Stellar is a great product that is in use. I own some, I picked it up 3 months ago. I think you are going in the right direction with Cardano, but better get in line to get on a different exchange-tonight.

Have you looked at verge or digitalnote?

I am considering picking up some digitalnote....

verge has a lot of fud, may be true may be not.

I remain invested partly because someone bought 1 Billion verge(a few million dollars), might be dumb money but one would think someone with such capital did some research

On another note:

Have been hearing positive things about Vechains. But need to do more research.

Nav coin have heard mixed info some positive some negative, but like their support for raspberry pi staking

I would put compliance in my own personal list. Reason being is that I would like to legally cash out some someday.

Then how do you square that with this:

Completely agree. However, the problems, aimed clientele, holders and direction of Ripple hit a principled no go for myself.

XRP is regulatory cooperation. What clientele do you think would come with that?

XRP is already hated by a large percentage of the planet..the ONLY crypto that is hated.

Frankly its own protocols will prove insufficient in favor of newer systems that have already surpassed it..and again without bank interaction and regulations.

Time will tell but XRP really garners no excitement in most...

True, I'm no fan of ripple either, or I'd invested earlier. But rumor is coinbase one of the largest exchanges might offer them on their platform. If that does occur it may rise in value.

I don't see Gold prices rising at the same rate as BTC, but if you're looking for stability, I totally agree.

Probably not, but if cryptos keep the same growth in the following years there's a possibility they could carry gold along for the crazy ride.

a reply to: Xenogears

Trading gold backed crypto coins would be huge.

It would be the most secure and liquid gold-back product ever made.

But the reason it hasn't been done is because most of the price of gold is speculation, not definitive valuation.
