    BTC/ETH/LTC made up about 75% of my holdings.

    The rest comprised of XRP/NEO/ETC/OMG/STEEM/ARK/CVC.

    Check out SALT, decentralized lending, big backers like Erik Voorhees and Charlie Shrem. Make sure you do your own due diligence first though. Makes up a large portion of my portfolio at the moment. Metal is also one to look at in the upcoming months.

    Some BTC but mostly LTC and ETH. Looking to buy some XRP and NEO over the coming weeks.

    Nothing but Bitcoin.

    btw when I go to investments & markets forum, should cryptocurrency not be visible as a sub-forum there?

    Same here !
    A Bitcoin maximalist, is me. All-in on BTC, no holdings of sh!tcoins whatsoever.

    So everything bar BTC is a shïtcoin?

    And that rationale stays, no matter what happens to BTC?

    BTC only, well BCH too by default

    Quite frankly, yes ! IMO, of course. :)
    (I'ld rather not include ETH in the category as it is a smart contract platform token rather than a coin -- but all the rest are over-valued, over-hyped and speculative rubbish masquerading as "coins".
    And that rationale stays, no matter what happens to BTC?
    If Bitcoin does ever crash-and-burn, then all the other CrapCrypto's will go down with it. But I'll guarantee you this: if when one of these sh1tcoins collapses in price, it will have no effect on Bitcoins price. None whatsoever.

    when one of these sh1tcoins collapses in price, it will have no effect on Bitcoins price. None whatsoever.

    A major collapse in ETH will drop BTC, it's simply too big not too.
    These so called ****coins are advancing the tech behind BTC and with without them BTC will not grow as quick since BTC is just a store of value that is far too slow to use day to day. If you want BTC to succeed then you should hope for other up and coming coins to improve on the technology.

    Pretty terrible if we only had Amazon to buy from online since anything else is just a **** knockoff the first major online sellers

    hmmm, you have almost the same range of coins as me apart from the tenx.

    Kinda regretting the 500 steem I bought though, they're $.20 lower now. I shouldn't have bought them at a high I guess... :D

    For your own safety man I'd edit that post, you shouldn't really post your holdings online especially when they're that large

    I did but now I need you to remove it too :D

    missed that, were we in the millions? (in fiat) ;)

    At least a few Tipos, maybe a seicento or two ;)


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,315 ✭✭✭snowstreams


    20% NEO
    16% BTC
    15% LISK
    14% OMG
    7% BNB
    6% WTC
    5% XEL
    5% ARK
    5% LTC
    5% ETH
    2% WAVES

    I will probably sell the BNB in a few days when it reaches 2$
    I do a little bit of speculative buys just for fun.

    seems to be some FUD about over the planned metropolis changes to ethereum, people saying that the change from pow to pos will kill it.

    At the moment Tenx is down 10% from when I bought. They're saying cards should start shipping in volume this month so I'm expecting things to turn round.

    It might kill the incentive for miners, but for as long as Ethereum keeps being adopted by enterprise and blue chip companies that price will keep rising.

    The more use it has the more it gets used the more it will be held for staking. Crypto-nerds might balk at the idea of a steady 5-10% earnings but billionaires would be quite happy with that - they'll be printing tens of millions in fiat per year!

    People need to start thinking of ETH less as a pure crypto-currency and more like a platform. For example, I bought some PAY and CIVIC tokens last week and to transfer these you need ETH. That's the kind of thing that is going to drive ETH growth, not mining.
