I am a “Licensed Manufactured Home” installer, which means nothing really. Although I also end up doing work that is way underpaid for lol as in when a new home is being brought in, I plan the pier locations , help with the pour etc. and then when it comes time and the home is brought in, I do the setup and put me seal on it, and then dig the trenches, wire and install the 400 amp meter pedestal , including wiring into the breaker box inside the home, laying conduit etc. and leaving 15+ft of wire at the padmount transformer for Nat grid to do their thing. Before they can do that the nice inspector comes around, and puts his sticker on it. Most of the crawling around happens under a new home with all the tie down systems and reshimming for interior doors. Winter time there is usually a slew of frozen lines because of heat tape failure and people forget to turn them on for the sea… enough of that lol!

So when are we going to have our first NYSPEED traders Coffee Meet? 😃 😃

Was just about to post about Litecoin. I sold a few when it was around 100 and dumped the money into bitcoin, glad I still have a bunch of Litecoin though.

The “real” price of bitcoin is $11000 is my math correct? Today that is 340bil / 21mil.

Another question, there are multiple exchanges in the world for the stock market with NYSE at 18trillion, so essentially GDAX, Binance are like that except trading in crypto and like their own countries unto themselves? So even if a US based exchange would go down there are others out there would be others…

I read a Forbes article about the 7 myths of Bitcoin fanboys and I think it misses the point completely. If Ukrainians can make money by trading Hrivne and and dollars standing at a marketplace, you can make serious cash when you have a hundred currencies at your fingertips.

If for some reason due to the exchanges being brought on board causes the price to hit 25 I’m selling and waiting for a drop.

Got this off reddit

[COLOR=#555555]/r/all[How to transfer Bitcoin from Coinbase for free!](https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/7imq35/how_to_transfer_bitcoin_from_coinbase_for_free/) ([self.Bitcoin](https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/))  
submitted 12 hours ago by [agent9747](https://www.reddit.com/user/agent9747)redditor for 3 months  
[/COLOR]  
[FONT=Verdana]I see many people are upset about Coinbase and their insane transfer fees so I thought I would make a simple instruction about how to transfer Bitcoin outta Coinbase for free. Lets get to it!

- Go to [GDAX.com](http://GDAX.com) and log in with your Coinbase account. GDAX is owned by Coinbase, and it’s their platform for more technical people.

- After you logged in, verify your account if necessary.

- Press the “deposit” button and then deposit your Bitcoin from your Coinbase wallet. It’s free and takes only seconds.

- Press the “withdraw” button, then open the “BTC address” tab and put the address you wish to send your bitcoins to in there.

That’s it! You have sent your bitcoins to another address and avoided some serious fees.  
Please upvote if you found this useful so more people can see it. 🙂
