Is there an easy way to see what coins Bittrex has? I'll have to take a peek.



Yes. Go to bittrex and click on 'markets' tab on the top right.

Will show you the exchange

From what I gather, they don't have Iota, right? That's tops on my list to buy a bunch of and see where it takes me.



Not right now. I would use Binance for IOTA.


My gripes with Poloniex.

-Its very hard to get your money off of their site, even for small increments
-Withdraws have taken weeks and months for a few of my friends
-Routinely shut down wallets
(Rumors)
-They use customers funds to invest in their own coin trades
-Thats an explanation for delays for tickets and withdraws
-They make it next to impossible to withdraw large sums of money(20k and above) off the site

Thanks, that's what I've found from researching it. I've had Binance since last week, I'm ready to make the plunge on some alt coins.

Iota and XLM are on my radar. At first I liked Ripple but reading up more, I don't see it taking off in price. Hoping to find 1 or 2 more, just haven't gotten into researching more just yet.

a lot of FUD going around with IOTA right now because of it being the "blockchain killer"

the main issue i know about is the wallet one, which has been an issue for a very long time

You are always so defensive about bitcoin.

I don't know why you take it so personally.

Never heard of it.

Finally loaded up on Iota yesterday. I noticed the top 15 coins today by market cap...14 of them are up in the past 24 hrs, all but Iota lol.

Not a woe is me post, but just more of a funny one.

a few things -

BTC will drop in price - at some point

This isn't an investment, but rather gambling at this stage

That’s the funny part. It’s supposed to be he new global currency yet all its used for now is an “investment” into “laws of the universe”.

This shite might get $50k in 2018. Lol.

You are gambling on it to continue increasing in value.

This isn't a company generating profits.
