    Anyone else hesitant to invest further. It's only around half a year since you could pick it up for < €20, now it's 10x the price. I would like to invest further, but I haven't since it was at €35. It's just going up way too fast for my liking.

    Where can a person research to make an informed decision rather than trying to beat the market? I saw a guy on YouTube related to the Gdax account, he was talking about making money in a falling market... is this referring to buying futures????

    LTC still has legs as I see it.
    It's still the cheapest option for people jumping in on coinbase, the transaction speeds are super quick and the fees are so much less than BTC.
    Going to Hodl for another 50-100%

    Delighted I got in on this early just raging I didn’t buy more of them. Charlie lee had an interesting post on Twitter yesterday saying it could just as easily fall back to $20 due to the bearish moves. If it does I’ll be in like a flash buying more

    There are no informed decisions really, prices will fluctuate for reasons you really can't predict. Invest what you'd be comfortable with losing. Currently all the major cryptos are making huge gains, it can't last forever though.

    On the delay with SEPA deposits, I used my credit card to purchase at the weekend so while at a higher rate, the difference is inconsequential at this time given the recent spike in value!

    50\50 split and then freeroll your profits?

    I have a small amount invested. Complete novice.

    It seems to be unsustainable now that its approaching 250.

    Million dollar question. When do you pull the plug and run?

    Why do you think it's unsustainable?

    You could pull the plug and buy back in when it drops......if it drops.

    So hard to know. Maybe we will look back in a years time and think 'God, why didn't I buy more when they were so cheap @ $250'.... Or maybe we will say 'why didn't we sell'! Nobody knows!
    All we can do is hope

    Lack of understanding essentially.

    The general Perception from what i read online is that a big correction is quite likely.

    Its gone from just over 100 on Sunday to almost 250 today.

    Do you think its sustainable?

    Never set a target. I bought a bitcoin and Ether too.

    Bitcoin is not going up - went down and now recovered to what I got it for.

    Ether up marginally.

    While Litecoin has almost trebled - had planned to wait till 1000 on this and then sell. But no one predict the future so unsure now seeing that its going up very fast there has to be a correction

    I'm not sure if this is the right thread for this sort of question but I'm certainly interested in crytocurrencies. What is everyone's tax liability and how do you keep track of such transactions, if at all? My understanding is that it will fall under CGT and I will pay it but I have been led to believe that it is self assessed hence my questions on keeping track of investments/profits and when it needs to be filed.

    Nobody knows, people have been saying Bitcoin will crash all year, and yet there it is, making some people millionaires.

    Depends where you trade, but you can usually generate a report and calculate your profits from that.
