Slowly watching my early month profits going down....and down. Wonder how far it will dip before it starts skyrocketing again? I'm still on the plus side and don't plan on selling, actually wondering about putting more in?? What say ye?

Bitcoin Cash is not Bitcoin, it's a competing currency that was developed to solve some of the transaction congestion issues that bitcoin has encountered over the last couple years.
Do you think bitcoin cash will eventually take over bitcoin?

Last I checked, Bitcoin was at about $14,600, down from about 19,800 at some point last Sunday.

I haven't bought any, but I did blow the dust off the old Fidelity acct and start checking out stocks tied to Bitcoin. It's an absolute shit show. There are a few that are legit it seems, but then there's shit like this....an iced tea company that changed their name to include the buzzword of the day and their stock went from $2 to $8.40 instantly.

I bought a few seemingly legit stocks in companies involved with cryptocurrencies a few days ago and took a pretty good bath over the last 2 days as Bitcoin took a dive...we'll see what tomorrow brings.

Looks like people are collecting profits. If you've watched the cycles this is pretty typical.

If I remember right the $12,500 is the 50 day average. If it doesn't level off it may even go lower than $11,000. In the other thread I was thinking $10,000 to $8,000.

Don't know if this true or not. I heard somewhere Bitcoin trading was suspended until after new year. SEC saw something they didn't like, wanted to investigate?

Jump ship? Man, this shit is on sale!!!!!!!!

Unfortunately I own some that we bought at 18k. The crappy part was we were not buying it to make money but only so we could transfer in to XRP. However it took a huge dump the second we bought it. Oh well; you win some, you lose some.

As some experts like Schiff has said it is going to burst and everyone that has not taken their profit and ran is going to be sorry. Maybe not today but it is going to say bye bye someday soon...good luck to all that invest just be careful and don't bet the bank....

Oh it will burst and I don't think that there is any question about that. I don't see it happening yet as there is still way too much buzz around it. But what do I know?

Considering it has gone up over 1500.00 in one hour this morning, a 7k drop in a day really doesn't concern me.

I'm sitting here watching the frenzy begin like it does a few times a week. This stuff is just wacky.

My concern is that a majority of people use coinbase to trade bitcoin. If there's a bunch of people waiting to dump when it does start trading again we could see a massive sell off.

If the Dollar (or Yuan or Euro or Gold) lost 25% of its value in a matter of hours, there would be literal blood in the streets.

So this is all make believe. With this kind of volatility I'm not even sure how well it can be used for its original intent. Have fun folks.

When all is said and done LETS SEE SOME SELL SHEETS to show actual profit taken by anyone on RD's supporting the BitCoin mania. A few will make some big money, most will lose their asses....Remember it does not matter what the value is until you sell it....it matters what you sold it for and walked away with....good luck.

Ludacris!! Gamblers always win, haven't you asked a gambler? proof, we don't need proof. it's all in our head.

Meanwhile,this year looked good in that other market with real companies that produce goods and services that no one is talking about.

A few months ago a buddy of
mine was trying to convince me to buy into Bitcoin, it had just hit a high of $3K and he was touting that it would be $20K by the end of the year. I told him he was an idiot. Who’s the idiot now?

Kinda like MLB. The Best Batter title is earned by guy with Highest Batting Average(measured by average of hits, not average of HRs). HRs are exciting, but need hits to increase their value. The 6 best HR years, were won unfairly, tainted and unearned by those nowhere to be found today. Stay consistent. The value of Hits always outweigh value of HR's.
