True.  I have been burned in the past for large sums by going with only what I read about a crypto person, and I have taken a risk in doing so again here.  But I believe in Jani and his team, their record is impressive.  

Would I be happier if ICN had a little pop at launch and permanently stayed above ICO price?  Of course.  And I am disappointed that has not happened.  But everybody's sense of time is so skewed in the crypto world.  We are less than three weeks from ICN distribution and it is not reasonable to expect huge progress on the actual platform yet.  I am patient.

I have broken the number one rule of investing by putting all my available crypto resources on one trade here.  Why?  I am too much of a poker player, I like that thrill of being "all-in".  Plus, I am not a rich man in real life.  I have a job and not enough saved for retirement.  My investment in ICN is a huge amount of money, but it is the culmination of two years of crypto trading starting from a much smaller sum that I could afford to lose.  My finances in real life are completely seperate (and much less dramatic) that my crypto investments.  My goal is to get in on a BTC / ETH level of pop and then pull it all out and retire.  I believe ICONOMI can do that, but it will take time.  More time than 16 days.  And with a few dips between here and there.
