well, I dumped my Ethereum over the weekend, took a 20% loss or so. I'm not interested in the ups and downs, it's for younger guys.

If I'm not mistaken, this post is the 1st time in barf history that someone lost money on ANYTHING!!!! You've ruined my perception that everyone here is part of a unique place in the world where everyone's investments only make gains.

:laughing
 
I just discovered the Cypto20 index fund by Invictus, but it looks like if you are from the US, you can't get a Invictus account. I did not see this option on Fidelity or Webull, so WTF.

Anyone know of a good Crypto index that is easy to buy?

If you know my investment style, you know that I am a low fee index investor. :)

I did a little more digging and it looks like a good, low fee, easy to buy Crypto Index does not exist for the US yet. I will probably just get BITW and wait for something better.
 
Bitcoin is back down to $32,320, so much for a rally.

Damn, my fingers flipped the first two, thanks Blankpage.

What ever happened to Bitcoin being a currency, with an underlying use

Now it just seems like a speculative investment? Isn’t this kinda defeating it’s purpose?

I’m not even kindergarten in terms of Bitcoin knowledge, full

Some in this thread have myopathy. Zoom out. Bitcoin was 9500 exactly a year ago. OMG ITS CRASHING. Hahahahahaha. This is awesome. I will continue with what I'm doing. Continue doing you. LOL
 
9500, which was half of it's peak from earlier before dropping to 1/3 of that peak.

Good luck!
 
Can we get pass this? It goes up it goes down it might drop to 1 dollar, or shoot to 1 million.
Personally I am interested in why, and not on what. I am still wondering why eth is much lower price then btc. Former actually used for something.
 
China shutting down mining operations was blamed this time, although that seems to be a side act. The real concern must be the lack of acceptance by China of Bitcoin for monetary use.

I'd think limiting the quantity of future coins would drive demand upward. I also read that many of the coin mining companies are holding considerable coins in their treasuries and there may soon be a selloff of those company coins, thereby flooding the market.
