Sure any of the other top 50 coins. Ripple isn't special.

I didn't mean this week, I meant in your lifetime.

Question still stands.

As you said, people will lose money. As I said, that goes with any investment types every done. But I ask, what investment types have ever offered the returns we've seen these last few years other than crypto?

I've done it a bunch of times and I still get scared every time I see that warning.


I bought in on LTC and ETH at basically their highest prices. I know I should hold them as they'll be fine long term, but i just like messing with the alt coins. Getting the urge to dump both for some alt coins. It's one of those where I know it's not wise, but it's just house money and I feel like it would be more fun....this is how I'll probably lose my stash in crypto.

Weird, ETH shouldn't take that long.

Do you see the transaction pending on CB?

What are you talking about? This is a thread specific to Ripple not crypto in general.

Fair point, I concede.

XRP has gone up more than 8x its value in 1 month. That's still not really a dime a dozen type money making venture.

yeah but at that $2.00 point, do you think it's worth me putting my ltc and eth into it?

No, I don't.

I got in early and realistically I probably should pull some out at $2...well it's over that now but you get the point.

It may cost me but i'm being emotional and going to hold a bit longer.

I wouldn't buy in now, it's on an insane run today.

XRP and XLM were my 1st 2 alt coin buys along with Iota as the 3rd.

I got in late on Iota, mostly for the same reason like Cody, waititng on money to get into CB for me. I spotted it at $.80 but didn't buy in until $4.29. I've since sold, and XRP and XLM are my top 2 alt coins at the moment.
