Bitcoin is still at 7,900 at the time of this post. That’s still REALLY high in the grand scheme of things, and proves that there is a lot of value in it.

It can’t/couldn’t possibly climb forever. If you really were at nearly $90k in profits and didn’t pull out, then you’re insane. What did you expect to happen? Make millions? Did you really think it was going to keep increasing exponentially?

I did not have an exit plan. I figured it would keep going up, but not drop 80% lol lesson learned.

I wish I had built a mining rig instead, at least then I would have a sick gaming PC if all else fails.

If crypto really does go back to 1-2K BTC, I may build a rig myself.

Hopefully you don’t generate enough heat that cops think you’re growing dope 😛 @Skurge

Big movement in the markets, and ripple keeps doing awesome stuff. Bought more ripple today, I agree with @Motocrossx23 about coins being electronic pogs, out of the 1500 or so I’d say 99.995% are, but if you’re interested in checking, which you’re probably not, ripple is doing real life things, with actual services being used today.

I got a gut feeling I’m getting that FGT, maybe not next year, or the year after that, but she’s comin.

I’m still holding TRX, LTC and XRP because I think all of them have a shot at being used for real world stuff some day. TRX being the long shot but considering I bought in at .03 it’s not much of a risk.
