me he doesn't like me because i take full advantage of my disability and the support i am offered because of it
Would love to hear legitimate reasoning for #4. FCT is one of few coins that has a working product and unique well thought out model for a very large targeted market. Sure you're less likely to 3x this week. However a year from now 90% of your shitcoins will be gone and FCT will continue to grow.
I think that's his point. It will continue to grow but it's being outgrown by most of the rest of the top 100.
There is a ton of overvalued shit out there right now. The ones with working products and relatively low supply (high unit price compared to market cap) are the least likely to fall into this category. FCT fits that bill.
I hate giving people advice on money, much less criticizing people. When you are playing with a bankroll its a lot harder to invest in some shitcoin. Im sure gatorfromiowa and bburtioes are doing just fine. Im sure Odin is doing what is right for him. Different people, different situations Can we stop with this shit.
But at this point most of those coins are speculative. You don't benefit from the growth if they don't exist when you go to cash out. My portfolio was $5k higher just 2 days ago. An S&P500 mutual fund will outperform 90% of financial advisers. Winning the trading game long term isn't easy. There are so many different strategies it's mainly important to be cognizant of the risks. I subscribe to this mindset:
I'm cool with Odin doing whatever is best for him. For me, that's not day trading on a bunch of stuff I know nothing about besides someone on twitter said it might shoot up soon (oversimplification but you get the point). I have a decent amount of money in this, and much like bburritos I'd like to think I'm investing into things long-term that will still be around when most of this shit with zero use isn't. I don't have the stomach or the balls to put over 6 figures into shit on a whim. And fwiw I'm up over half a mil (again on a much higher investment but money is money), so things are just fine for now.
This is obvious, but What the coins have done in the last year has absolutely nothing to do with what they do going forward. I can see the appeal of a more stable coin that’s unlikely to just flatline overnight. If you buy a $0.05 shitcoin or something that has tripled overnight, you may be buying at the absolutely peak of the bubble. That’s less likely in something like FCT. If you’re throwing a $100 dart, sure it’s not the right one for a lotto ticket. But if you’re investing significant money for a long timeline, it may be a great fit.
I'll can agree with all of that. I dont have anything to do except dyor and stare at charts. Im here to turn thousands into as much as i possibly can while the market is doing what its doing. It is basically my only chance to live the life i want to live. Market might go to shit later today and never recover, so i have to make what i can while i can. You can just throw a ton of money at any coin you like and take what you get. Wish i could do the same, but thats not reality.
Also, most of these coins are just shooting up based on fake hype and marketing. Factom did no marketing to the crypto space last year. They were working on more important things... That will change in 2018. As their CMO said: "the last year we've been really focused on the mortgage market, there's a lot of revenue, and a lot problems to be solved and we've gotten A LOTT of traction there" "we've been really focused on that and the crypto community feels slighted because we've spent all of our marketing energy on that market .. SO NOW THAT WE'VE REALLY GOT TRACTION ON THAT AND WE FEEL THAT WE'RE THE NUMBER 1 IN TERMS OF MINDSHARE FOR BLOCKSPACE IN THE MORTGAGE MARKET, WE'RE PIVOTING BACK TO THE GENERAL CRYPTO MARKET"
Gentlemen, The year is 2018 and we're at the main table. We've pushed our chips into the middle. No fear. We have no control of what happens next, so there is no worry. There exists only a hint of excitement. A smile of anticipation at the possible outcomes. We could have not sat and kept our chips tucked safely away. But we chose differently. We chose this journey. I'm glad my chips are in.
So right now I buy in via my bank account into coinbase > Transfer to GDAX > Transfer to KuCoin > Invest into coin Its like a 14 day process. Is there a way to skip a step or make this quicker?
Depending on your bank, if you do it by ~2 pm today you should have it by before 6 pm. If not, it should clear monday
it shouldn't take 14 days. 7 days for the buy to clear on coinbase then 24 hours max for the rest of it. you must be making a mistake somewhere along the way.
