I'm retired and out. (goal is to use crypto ...mostly alts...and mining to get buy next 3 years when I touch traditional soc sec and investments....don't

really need to do this ..but hey, its a goal)

HOWEVER, scrypt-pow mining may be 'dead' to me by August 2018, if these prices vs difficulty keep up...vs difficulty

Thus, I will likely, crack, like a walnut, (overkill) either by BTC hitting say, 8k again or 15k again...I might dump up to 25%

of my Hoard (not sure the mixture of alts to btc) ....due to the fact I REALLY, REALLY LIKE NOT WORKING FOR ANYONE...



I must say, however, IF, the frigging BTC price would be floating sideways at around the say 13k to 15k range...I'd have a LOT

less angst on this whole thing...as I assume others would and sure ...some would be sold....but far less IMHO...vs another 8k dump

So, IMHO with others and with me, I figure that IF BTC dumps to 8k a lot of folks will dump as a hedge on further drops...

and if BTC goes to say 13-15K people will also dump as a hedge ..again, on a further dump, even if less drastic

Right now at this 9k range...everyone is sitting on their hands (like myself) watching the price ...and fidgeting with confusion


so, yeah, you get rid of the job it is great...but then you have to 'live on what you kill" mining or otherwise....tis annoying

So, yeah, got to eat....sigh....
