@dbt1033. I want an honest answer. Is XEL a short-medium term trade, 1 week minimum to 3 month months maximum, or are you trying to recommend that this is the next top 10 cryptocoin that everyone should be holding?
I also heard the story about Lannister doing a disappearing act and that the developers who are left are still around for the fun of it. That does not look good for investors who want to hold for a long time. If the developers have a proven track record, it might change investors' minds.
Hold until it's time to dump then move on (maybe that's 1 week? maybe 1 month? I'll sell a little at rest stops on the way up to derisk).
There are plenty of projects that share the same or similar stories to Xel... who cares. Look at Via... new dev w/o the ICO funds and it's ballin out of control.
The devs who are left are probably monster bagholders of Xel... and working to pump their own bags

How do you know if it is at rest stop? When it slows down in growing and start falling?
When you say you sell a little. What does it mean? You change it for BTC or BTC then fiat or USDT?
Sorry for probably stupid questions, I'm quite noob.
Thanks
