BTC pumped this week and we didn't see much action from Doge. That spike that happened on the 18th seems to have been where you should have taken some of your profits on the trade. What coins are you holding right now?

I ended up exiting my stellar position at a 50% loss. Went from 1.9 bitcoins to 0.8.

Sold that for USDT, and now that Bitcoin is poised to come down after the price spike this week I'll rebuy and increase bitcoins to 0.85, for a small gain.

Next time BTC hits a big spike i'll make a post about it. These increases are always followed by corrections, and if we time it right we can make easy money simply selling the bitcoins for USDT, then trading back to bitcoin once the price corrects, thereby increasing the total amount of BTC we have.
 
I'm investing more after August 1st and depending on where the market is going, I'll hold for the long run. Who knows how much Bit, Ether, or Lite will be worth next year.
 
Ethereum is bombing right now. They hosted a lot of trash currencies on their network and now that those currencies are getting dumped on the market it is hurting ethereum's value

I personally would not buy any
 
Litecoin is old. It's been one of the better bitcoin alternatives but I don't see it as having a lot of room for growth. It's more risk, but I think if your plan is to get rich you wanna find something cheap that will triple or quadruple in value

Any thoughts on Stratis or Ripple(Xrp)? They seem to be going down ahead of August 1th.
 
I like ripple. It's quick and is finding a lot of support in the financial sector. They have shown a lot of growth. I had some when it was just starting and sold it a few weeks before it blew up. Could have made a few grand there, never gonna live that one down

Right now everything is coming down. Btc falling, gonna be a good time to grab some at a lower price

I don't even know if August first will be a decrease. Segwit is apparently active now, but there won't necessarily be a fork

A lot of mixed views on this

I am just going to monitor the price for now. Any future input will be much appreciated.

 
@cainvelasquez apparently the fork on the first of August is 100% a go.

The Bitcoin mining community will be forcing a new coin to be created as an offshoot of bitcoin due to irreconcilable differences. This new coin, called bitcoin cash, will be given to anyone who has bitcoin in a bitcoin wallet that is NOT in an exchange (it has to be a personal bitcoin wallet). From what I've managed to make of this, the new currency is pretty lame but may gain support and rival bitcoin? ( i personally doubt it given its origins)

In any event, we are seeing bitcoin prices reach towards their highest highs from not long ago, and it could be in anticipation of the new coin being created. That new coin's value will be derived from the value of bitcoin, so there is a good change we see bitcoin take a big hit on or around the first of august

Waiting until the market bottoms out then investing again. Also, Coinbase CEO is taking survey on which coin should be available next on the platform.

...well damn, that was a quick crash. Bit is back up to 2800 plus. Might have to pick up another portion soon.
 
I dont know if you guys have been following, but this new bitcoin derivative coin went nuts price wise. The fluxuations are insane.

If you got some you did good
