Yeah I received mine from the first round of dividends. And on slack people told me they received theirs also.

How can you be sure of what the price is going to be? I surely do hope that your prediction will come true of course, but in my honest opinion I think it is kind of arrogant to be saying what it will be because I truly think not a single person knows for sure.

Do you have the means to support yourself if you quit your job? If you do and if you truly feel you want to do it then go for it man! Or maybe get an easy job like a lobby guard or some shit where you do nothing the whole day and have all the time to inspect bitcoin

Come on man, the solutions for for upgrading the bitcoin network won't come in a day, it takes a lot of time to do things correctly and not screw things up. Give it time, Like Antonopoulos said about the internet it was horrible in the early years, and look at it now. I wish there would be more ways to actually use bitcoin now, but I believe things will get better when riding the lightning. We'll see.

I'f anyone of your friends have a Ledger Nano wallet you should ask them if you could check them out on how they work. My wife bought me one last christmas and it's awesome. You can make a segwit address wallet, and also in my opinion, the wallet interface is very nice and clear and also easy to use. The ledger comes with a card where you take your private key to store it safely and there also the extra layer of security when making transactions by having to click on the physical buttons on the device. I don't think it is a device for daily use but for storing cryptos it's good.

Check it out!

PS. There are other hardware wallets out there but I cannot speak for them because I haven't tried any other thatn the ledger nano s.

Yeah it started, there's also been some good talking about bitcoin again instead of constant fudding. Maybe we will see some new all time highs again in the not so distant future I surely have hopes for bitcoin.

I will immediately start using bitcoin once it is accepted in certain places. I bought a few games on steam a long while back when they still accepted it as a payment method, I think BTC was about $600 then so I kind of payed quite a sum for just a few games but still I got them with a discount because I bought them coins when it was about $150. Once it started mooning I was too scared to use it and its good that I didn't, woulda lost many K:s haha!

Well, crypto is an investment at the moment so it probably isn't wise to borrow money for it. Because that means you are investing more than you can afford and that is mentioned everywhere as to be one of the key rules of investing, not to invest anymore than you can lose.

Haven't borrowed any myself for crypto. Got lucky enough to buy some btc when it was about $150

My view is, at the moment bitcoin is the gateway to to crypto world. There aren't many places you can buy alts with fiat money, only bitcoin. So when people want to cash out on their alts they will trade them for bitcoin and then cash out to fiat. I might be wrong, but when you look at the movement on the prices the altcoins walk hand in hand with bitcoin. But this might not be the case in the future.

I still wish bitcoin will keep soaring and not go anywhere soon.

You should really go check on DeepOnion, It's a tor coin with an awesome, active community with over 10 000 members (I think). I've been following their progress for awhile now and it is truly promising on the privacy sector of cryptos.

They are currently airdropping their coin for many weeks to come, don't miss it!

https://deeponion.org/

I've been trembling many times of fear when watching the markets and reading the news about crypto, in my case, it has fortunately been profitable because of "instinct" trades I've made But still highly risky.. These days I try to not let the emotions take the best of me.

As people said before me you need to be patient and calm, it's still a wild west here.

As for today bitcoins price has started soaring again, looking forward for a great year for cryptos.
Wonder what the total market capitalization for all cryptos will be at the peak in the year 2018? Anyone?

Hey guys! Has this weeks airdrop been distributed already? For a whole week when I checked the status for my account it has said "accepted" but this morning it says it has been skipped for some reason, and no ONIONs dropped to my address, maybe it will drop later on.
But the message on the status says that there is not enough o´posts in bitcointalk, even though I have well over the required amount of posts in both bitcointalk and in deeponion forum, and also my wallet holds 100+ ONION. Am I missing something here?

Thanks in advance!

I haven't really followed stellar that much, but what I have done is I have followed the price boom. Got a decent amount from their airdrop and now the coins are worth pretty much.

Yeah I second this, am pissed because I missed the $2 prices. Some other coin that I wished to swap to onions was stuck and couldn't move them. Im really FOMOing badly at the moment

I've been waiting to get rid of my IOTAs to buy raiblocks fo over a month now, IOTAs haven't budged because there is something wrong. Now raiblocks have increased about 7 fold since I decided I want to invest. This isn't going very well for me..

Well DeepOnion is kinda cool, but it's not completely free, you have to post stuff on bitcointalk and to the deeponion forum also, and do also a bunch of other stuff before you can apply. But it seems like a cool idea so I did all this myself and now am applied to the airdrop. Lets hope it is worth it, I surely believe it will

Since DeepOnion is in tor network and completely anonymous and all that cool stuff, what do you guys think about that will it be used in some "criminal" activity? I mean probably if someone wants to sell guns and drugs with onions that would pump up the price Not that I hope that drugs would be sold but at the same time all price rises are welcomed

As days go by, I feel more and more like I don't want to trade back my cryptos for fiat money. Today if you want to use them you have to trade, but maybe in the future things will be different. Unless you have a xapo or tenx card

your portfolio looks nice, all of these have gown in price for the last year. And I think they will keep it up in the near future.
