BIT COIN (S)

[Bruce Wayne]

FWIW I ran into a guy a couple of weeks ago who told me that day trading and bit trading is what he does. Said he knew a guy that did bit trading FT and was a massive millionaire. Taxed like property apparently.

Madoff was quite wealthy too I believe.

Joe he doesn't sound much of an IT Specialist if he's allowed a companies computer system to be hacked.

The wonderful thing is the security side is always playing catchup to the hacking side. Just the way it is.

*Not an IT specialist, but worked enough within that industry to know a bit

Joe, I think the hacker has just revealed himself and is taunting you with the roll of bitcoin in his pants.

Have you Partially / Fully cashed out yet?

After the wise old men of GOT scared me off I am yet to partially / fully invest!

Annoying as they obviously have no idea what they are on about yet talk with such conviction!

 

[dholliday]

Should I invest?

my wise mate told me about them when they hit €300 (directly after the first massive hike, before that it was like €10).

Since then I keep expecting it to crash so never got into it, but now it's over €6000 (ffs). Who dares wins and all that.

Thought this would be about mining them.

I've invested in Electroneum which is a new type of cryptocurrency that can be mined on a mobile phone. There was a lot of hype behind it so I though I'm gonna go in hard on this on the off chance that it explodes like Bitcoin, Ethereum and Litecoin etc..

It's started off badly with a number of security issues so investors haven't been able to have access to their wallets. It looks like they're pumping a lot of money into resolving it though.

Nothing ventured and all that.....

Sad fact, but sawdust options apart, GOT advice is worth what you paid for it

I did think it had probably peaked...but what do i know. Heads or tails works just the same.

It'll probably be knocking on the door of $20,000 a coin this time next year.

My brother in law just cashed out half his ethereum this weekend for just shy of €100k. He still has plenty of other coins, including 10BTC which he says he's holding (hodling) until they're worth €100k. He's made a small fortune off crypto since getting into it in 2015 and his current portfolio is still worth around 250k. I've made about 12k but would be 10x better off if i'd listened to him when he was going on about how great it was back then.

its all just luck.

complete luck

fair play to him though.

but could easily lose the same amounts in the same time frames. just like playing roulette

Of course, there's luck that he got in when he did and that it went up but he is now in no danger of losses. He passed the profit barrier on his initial investment a long, long time ago so everything he's playing with now is profit. Even if everything he had currently stored in crypto went to zero, he's 1000s of times better off for having initially invested.

He's a programmer and got in and held it because he believed (and still believes) in the tech. He's just a holder now and only trades when he wants to cash out for decent profits. With the professional day traders, it's less about luck.

For me it's just a risky but high-interest savings account for a couple of grand I can afford to lose. Just updated my spreadsheet this morning. My actual profits to date are 11,946.38 but it's defo gone up since then. Should break 12k very soon. It would take a cataclysmic, financial crisis-like crash for me to lose my initial investment.

Haha!

People just warned you about bubbles and regulation mate

A lot of investment is about having the nuts to do it, too

LOL you said this:
"Mein Frandel if you think a forecast growth from 4600$ today to 10807$ in January 2018 (from 508.7$ in January 2016) is safe, secure, sustainable and legitimate, go right ahead."

Which is EXACTLY where it is headed!
