I saw that.  I went ahead and moved all but about 1000 coins out of TRX into BTC.  Still made a great return since I bought it at .03.

@XocolateThundarr what in the world took you so long to finally jump in to crypto? (I'm just curious) esp. since we have been talking on here for quite a while about it

Quite honestly, I just didn't take the time to look into it.  Once I did, it sure seemed like something that you could make a bit of cash with...maybe lots of cash.  Also, it is something I can keep my eye on since I am at my computer for 90% of my day.

Also threw a little into CND.  Seems like an interesting project.

He outlined an investment strategy in one of his last videos that made a lot of sense.

APPC has been bumping along pretty nicely yesterday and today.  Wish I had bought more....

What's the TDLR version of coinmarketcap's decision to drop Korean exchange prices?

Their markets are ~20%-30% higher than the global average which distorts the true average price.

What is the best platform to use?  I started a Bitstamp account, but it looks like verification is more of a pain than I'd hoped.  I care about security to some degree, but prefer ease of use to hyper security.  TIA

BTW @XocolateThundarr as you have already guessed I’m sure I stick with mainly true decentralized and market leader cryptos.  So I don’t look at the smaller projects and ICO’s as much.  Since I don’t as often your posts about these random ones is interesting to see what else is out there.  :thumbs:

That is what I figured.  My current strategy is to make what I can on the altcoins and use it to add to my BTC balance.  I feel like I need to balance my holdings out with some ETH as well.

From what I have gathered from listening to different people and reading, the general consensus is that when the BTC price is moving sideways the altcoins tend to see greater activity.  More than one person has mentioned that when BTC prices start climbing again, they expect the altcoin market to cool off.

So you are comfortable with the price BTC is sitting at right now? I'm considering balancing up a bit...mostly out of XRP . I still think there is something to be made there but doesn't hurt to take a little profit from it now.

From what I can gather, I wouldn't be shocked if it dropped again.  Some people are saying it could go to 8k before it rebounds based on the charting.  Sounded like after today, there would be a clearer picture on where it could be heading.  Not necessarily my opinion, just what I have heard from others.  Take from that what you will....I'm the newbie.

What the hell do you do with all of the fractions of coins that are left on Binance when you sell?  Am I doing something wrong or is it just inevitable?
