Am I the only nutcase here with 90% XMR out of total 60BTC worth of cryptos  Huh
Been accumulating Moneroj since 2014 and been all in most of the time since then, had only 0.5BTC back then which I used to buy 250XMR first day it appeared on polo, all cryptos I have now I've made by trading over past 2.5 years, haven't bought a single satoshi/tacoshi with fiat. Today besides bit more than 5K XMR I have only 300 XMR worth of BTC and 300 XMR worth of BBR, would have 1K XMR more if I haven´t slipped on a banana while juggling with more than half of my Moneroj stash around 900k sats (got Jaxxed). And I never send more than 30% (trading funds) to the marketplace except for when I get scared - then I end up just like this nuttcase  Wink

No you are not. I sold the bulk of my remaining XBT for a mix of XMR and CAD over 15 months ago over the 1 MB blocksize issue. I have not regretted that decision at all.

pretty awesome that you capitulated at the bottom of btc price by selling it all, since then bitcoin is now up 3x (moreso due to cadusd) - but that you're still probably up more than holding btc-xmr at my much more reasonable (but still very gambly) ratio of 75-25.

Oh dear, 2015 was the best year for accumulating XMR, back then you could get 600-900XMR for 1BTC and that was the time when I made most of my XMR stash. Those who haven't lost faith in cryptos during the times of hopeless depression have been rewarded - especially those that recognized which altcoin has the potential to survive and follow its big brother  Wink 
Since then BTC is more than 300% up and XMR is xxxx% up and its still less than 10US$  Grin

Indeed very early 2015 was the optimal spot to enter. However, we might be laughing the current prices also in late 2018. I would not be too surprised if that will happen so soon. Time will tell if I am right or wrong.
