Hey Guys, just thought I'd let you know that friends of mine in Kenya are very excited about your project. I just listened to the CEO, you guys seem solid to me (a relative noob)

Oh really cool, just been on your telegram group - Theo Goodman from WCN is running it

Lovely illustrations!

I think celebrity endorsements represent all that is wrong with the old world - The new world of cryptocurrencies needs trust in Math, not cult of personality. Have any of the ico's listed performed well or have they pumped and dumped
Personally I'll never put into a coin that requires celebrity endorsement.

Although today Bitcoin is quite anonymous I think in a few years time we wont think of oit like that, rather, as a fully transparent method of moving value.

Err, a criminal gang kidnap the U.S. Presidents daughter and demand BTC for payment... I think Mr Trump might react badly to this.

I believe the other cryptos in the eco-system all serve a purpose, thats not to say that they will have value, but they serve a purpose.

When thinking that BTC is expensive, I always try to think what the price will be in 5 - 10 & 15 years time... then I realise its dirt cheap today and there will probably never be as good a time to buy again.

My family members now know about it because of me - I see this as our duty, to inform and educate those nearest to us. I'm still the only one who hodls any though

Really old news, so old we now have Craig Wright claiming to SN!

Sure my friend, but I think I'll meet you at the destination in 3-5years time, not imminently*

*I would like to wrong on this, please please, pretty please with bells on, let me wrong and OP right

I cant help feeling that this is by no means over yet. If Segwit2x doesn't go through, then I can see many miners feeling disappointed and they may begin to turn their hashing power to Bitcoin Cash.... I'm a believer in a stack system - Segwit followed by LN, I'm no big blocker, but I think BCH hit a floor at 0.05BTC - We'll see

So a few months have passed and we've had a fork - do you still want Bitcoin to die?

Personally I think this is without doubt the greatest invention of my lifetime, and one that can safe guard your financial future. Not so sure about BCH but we'll see

I think there is a serious chance that Segwit2x will not be taken up, and that the miners will feel betrayed and turn their hashing power to Bitcoin cash. We are not out of the drama yet

When I first got into Bitcoin I spoke to all my friends and family about it (as I suspect we all do). I noticed a trend. The richer the person was the less they liked the idea of it, for those with little to no money, BTC offers virtually no risk, yet to those that have money they seemed to feel that the chance of them losing some of their precious fiat was all too real. I love Bitcoin and I tend to like the people it attracts too. This is the future of finance!

 I would wait, BCH (Bitcoin Cash) is currently being dumped and I suspect will be for a few days. In my opinion BCH will never surpass BTC in price, but I've been wrong before

Spoken like a true Bitcoiner! I'm with you.

I did!
'The game' is then not to spend all your crypto savings whilst living (food,travel,rent, bills) - it just takes crypto to have a bad 6 week period, and you to have a lot of out goings, to severely reduce your savings.
My suggestion would be to set a defined target of what you want to achieve, then set yourself a time to achieve that and work out how much it will cost you to live in that time - then cash out the required amount. You've now got a framework to work within and hopefully still have a nice amount of crypto. Anyway that's my 2 satoshi's, good luck with your decision.
