We should all see where we are standing and look into the future. The past is only there to learn something. So "If I would..." sentences are there just for analysing and learning.
Main question is why we decide to invest into some opportunity. If I answer for myself it is: Enough information and product that makes sense.
I had conversation last week with one of my friend and he said: In november when I had money I should put everything into BTC or ETH and just wait (He has only a small ammount in XAUR).
I said: Why you didn't? The answer was logical: Because I didn't know what will happen.
So I responded: If you would have the money now would you do it? Buy BTC or ETH?
Again response for me was as expected: Probably not.

What is my point: We never know exactly how some information will reflect on the market, so if results on the market are not only based on information people get, but also on something tangible, it makes a big difference. If you want to have some balance between speculation and security, I still believe Xaurum is the best choice. That's why I hold 85% of portfolio in XAUR. If you just want security, buy physical gold. If you are willing to risk all on speculation, buy other cryptos. With some you might have a really huge profits, but you must be prepared for huge loses also.

Hello nmrcngrb.

You are not consistent in your comments. In one post you say that the past is to learn something and in another "It's funny to me when people compare price in BTC." We compare price of Xaurum to BTC to learn something and to see how is Xaurum positioned compared to other criptos. Why is that funny? We compare to see how we should decide for the future. If I hold Xaurum that makes 30% growth and in the meantime BTC makes 300% growth, than I made a bad decision for that past period. Can I make better decision upon this for the future? Maybe, but I can not be sure... Everyone of us is trying to get a best deal possible.

But the point from other comments was that the whole crypto world (majority of coins) was going up and the Xaurum was going slowly down. That's why we look at the price in BTC.

What is funny for me, could also be useful information for somebody else. You are correct. This is also a good information to have in mind. But will you make a different decision for the future based on this? Maybe. I know I won't. At least not in case of Xaurum, because it has this second component that I mentioned. Security.
I know we all want to get as much as we can for our money. So do I. Probably I'm not the smartest, but I like to sleep well
