Cryptocoin Value and Market Trend Discussion

[Chomiq]

It's possible. I'm getting served a lot of crypto-related ads on YT. That can mean that people still think there's growth potential, or they're trying to squeeze some money out of the market because they suspect a downturn. Unsurprisingly, that still boils down to, "We don't effin' know". At least I sure don't.

Yeah, could be. My watch history is pretty tech-heavy.

Turns out the squid coin (what ever its called ) was a pump and Dump Scam
Many got ripped off. despite warnings and notable signs

Cause and effect this is why Ecoins have a bad rep sorry to say but Some form of Regulation is needed to weed out the potential rouge actors

maybe people who dabble in get rich quick shitcoin schemes should do their own due diligence.. lets be real here.. its hard to protect greedy idiots.. i dont have much sympathy for them..

there is crypto and there is crypto.. dont gamble what you cant afford to lose..

What a shock right? I thought Olympus was going to be a pump & dump but it seems to be holding on and gaining value.

dont gamble what you cant afford to lose..

TRUTH!

saturday morning and bitcoin and eth seem to be taking a small dive.. 60k and 4.3K are the critical levels they need to hold at at else they might head lower..

i still think long term the trend is up but short term it may go down a bit more first..

Yeah, they've been doing the rollercoaster thing, but only in minor up & downs. Mostly going sideways. It just continues to be weird. Or is it just me?

 

[purecain]

I find it very interesting how I recieve google ads and info telling me to sell or not to invest in ETH right before it goes up in value and tells me to buy it , just before it takes a dive.
I follow the markets and try to use my own judgement and that seems to be working for me at least. I dont have any Bit Coin. Although i will start to purchase a little at a time as and when it dips in price, sell on its upturn and rinse and repeat. The fees are something I'm unsure of atm.

I miss back in the early bitcoin mining days when Google would serve me ads for "Jobs in the Coal Industry...."

 

[lexluthermiester]

I think CoinBase fees are something in the area of 5% per transaction. Not 100% on that as they don't publicly declare their fee schedules.

For trading, you are correct, there is no disclosure (they are supposedly feeless, but not really). I think it's closer to 2.5% from my estimations, but there certainly is a fee.

Also when you cash out to cash, they charge a static $1.99 or so to do that.

@lexluthermiester & R-T-B Thanks for the head up.

Did not know that. Good to know.

You can always create an account and then look it up as I'm sure that is info they give to members.

sunday morning and both bitcoin and eth have held the critical levels and ticked upwards slightly back to where they were...

later today or tomorrow i expect a noticeable upwards movement.. this sideways sh-t cant go on forever... he he..

trog

ps.. the big players always try and drive the price down before they grab a chunk more.. the fact they only managed a measly 1K or so this time shows how strong the buying pressure really is.. there aint many weak hands left to sell..

ps..2.. a hint to purecain.. bitcoin is not the thing to be buying and selling.. its the thing to buy and hold.. more volatile alt coins are better for buying and selling..

ps..3.. early hours of monday morning here in the UK still sunday in the US.. its up up and away.. bitcoin at 65K and eth at 4.7K..

the wales have started feeding.. he he..

 

[phill]

Been keeping an eye of late, seems to be getting interesting Holding about the 4.7k mark for Eth at the moment.... I see XRP getting a little boost as well... Here's hoping!!

 

[trog100]

tuesday morning.. bitcoin now at 68K with eth at 4.8K.. still on a nice steady rise.. the daddy coins seem to have lost a lot of their volatility..

litecoin is the one i want to see go up... so far its lagged behind the other older coins.. i have no idea why.. actually looking at it its up near 20% on the day so it might be making a move.. i hope so..

trog

ps.. litecoin is definitely on the move.. if it does the same as it did back in 2017 its looking at a 600% increase between now and the end of the year.. purely my own thoughts on this but i think wale manipulation has held litecoin back.. if i am right its now time to buy some litecoin.. wale accumulation will jack the price up massively..

ps.. 2.. mid afternoon in the UK.. bitcoin and eth have leveled off but litecoin has broken away and is for sure doing its own thing.. now up 23% on the day.. the thing to buy but be quick dont hang about..

 

[trog100]

thursday morning.. an unexpected dump.. i think this one caught everyone by surprise.. he he

bitcoin now at 65K with eth at 4.6K.. not a lot but enough to cause some panic.. i dont think it will go lower but one never knows..

gold is going higher which is always a sign of fear in the markets..

I would invest in the certainty that no investment is certain. Even precious metals have their own uncertainty. Of course, if things get that bad, I'm sure major food shortages are prevalent, in which case, guns & bullets become the new currency and acquisition BAMN(by any means necesary) replaces law.

 

[trog100]

sunday morning with bitcoin at 64K and eth at 4.5K... we seem to be back in the sideways mode..

What are your thoughts on CPU mining? I saw a video the other day that may have gotten me a little interested..

 

[lexluthermiester]

I thought CPU mining was mostly dead?

I don't really see it as profitable with $1.something per day, yet somehow it is making a comeback.

 

[trog100]

tuesday morning.. crypto is taking a dive.. bitcoin now down at 59K with eth 4.2K..

gold is climbing and the stock markets are flat..

what happens next is anybodies guess...

It was and still is, but mass media likes sensationalist articles about kids becoming millionaires )))
Some new crypto popped up(which might as well die after today's crash). Once again, poses itself as ASIC-resistant blah-blah-blah, and uses lots of cache(hence likes Zen CPUs).
Essentially everyone is chasing the next SHIB amongst unlisted coins.
