I'm delighted to see that my 1.334 ETH is now rising in price again. I bought $100 worth when it was down to ~$85 a coin with the intent of using it to fund more coins. Now I'm reluctant to let go of it. I recently took $300 and bought XRP while it was at 29 cents. I have coins in ETH, XRP, XLM, TRX (as well as a trove of various ERC10/20 tokens). I feel like I'm just playing the FOMO game with just altcoins in my Ledger NANO.
I have never felt more like salao old Santiago adrift in the bitcoin sea, hoping I can continue to fight off the sharks while holding out hope that a big whale passes me by long enough for me to gaze into its great big eye.
Recent trade may also matter after such profit in ethereum at 817% price pump in a year. Buying XRP may not be good idea for many new members, it is usually a difficult time fighting SEC in court, If they got successful in court they wont struggle get back because of relationship, existing fund and track record but I doubt the success trials
