Is anyone else starting to become a bit excited?

As per title, have we reached the bottom ?

Don't think we'll see the likes of $3200 ever again.

$5150 at time of posting.

Back in the mainstream media once more.

ETH is up for nearly 20% today. 1k on the horizon

Irish_rat

Pure speculation but if this bull is strong as hoped, selling eth now would be a mistake.

I sort of wish I bought more than €100 of ETH a few days ago as a test-case.

Unfortunately now I have to sort out the tax issue as I've earned €25 if I sell now.

Is there any particular difference in DCAing on one exchange or another? I know coinbase seems to be most user friendly and automated but do they charge more fees for doing so? Or would you really only be looking at substantial fees when withdrawing?

A few models knocking around suggest BTC highs of 50 to 100 K by 2022

When someone could safely dive off the top of the chart, wearing a wingsuit, and negotiate the face of the curve, it's mental.

I read all these predictions and TA in 2013 and 2017, the models are bull****, no one has any clue.

There is however a lot more access to crypto than there was previously, especially big "simple" gateways like Revolut and Paypal for the impatient to give their cash to the patient. Amazed that CB hasn't crashed yet..

Hope I’m not too late to the crypto party but putting in a couple of grand I’m prepared to lose, and see what happens. Going to do 75% BTC and 25% ETH

Any of ye know why Coinbase price is at approx 26,800eur while coindesk is reading approx 27,800..? Quick Google search gives 28k but not sure how accurate that is..?

Was wondering the same. ETH is cheaper as well. Did a couple of preview buys to see if they actually give those prices and they do.

100% conjecture here, but if you look at the price charts the coins hit lows on Coinbase yesterday they didn’t get to anywhere else (€22k and €550). Could it be that’s a Coinbase purchase that gets fairly shown in the charts but is never really available to users? Then they’re sitting on a stack of coins they bought 15/20% below market value that they’re happy selling a little cheaply?

Would also work in their favour on customer sells if they’re bullish.

Now we are getting into the mental phase, get ready for rollercoaster stuff. Also nice to see other alts (outside of Defi and "flavor of the month" coins) starting to move.

ETH is not stopping, I might need to pull the eject lever today sometime, I need to buy a house and it would kill me to see my current portfolio balance evaporate...

Fair enough, but It has a long way to go yet IMO. I can still see it reaching .05BTC mark which is where I will consider selling my bag.

Dohnjoe

Big discrepancies in Eth prices across exchanges, up to 70 euros difference, ah the nostalgia

jmlad2020

Litecoin is one of the top gainers today. It has retained its value against BTC quite well for the past 6 months, in comparison to the majority of alt coins.

It might be heading towards a 2x soon imo.

Easy on there Thargo

I think ETH has a good bit to go if BTC has anything to go by. I mean, BTC has been dragging major alts up but it's only the past week have they taken off

Why not wait and see how price interacts with the Jan 2017 highs before selling up?

If it sells off more than 20% from a high then maybe jump?

Here's an idea, sell a percentage at certain price points. Takes emotion out of the equation, e.g. sell 10% if we hit 750 euro. Another 10% at a higher price point and so on.

In reality there is no one standard price for bitcoin. Most likely one is Coinbases current price for the EUR/BTC pair whilst Coindesk's price feed is likely a blend of EUR/BTC prices from a number of exchanges.

Where is everyone buying their Bitcoin? Where is the cheapest?

Coinbase have a spread built in, and it is 0.0005 BTC to withdraw. Can you get better than this?

Within reason of course. Right balance of security, ease of use, etc.

It's not an exchange, which I rather quite like, but the weekly limits might not suit: https://www.belgacoin.com/

Was down 90%+ two years ago but look at it now! As I said im playing the long long game like any investment you have to expect dips and peaks but im confident that over a long enough timeline , in my case the next 10-15 years I should be passing on a nice mobile nest egg to the kids.

Yea I didn't have a combination of the cash and risk appetite to buy into itduring the bear market. I was saving a deposit for a house, which I now have. I had enough exposure at the time with my ETH but in the next crash I will be in a better position to buy. I'll look into that, thanks.

House far more important!

Yes indeed, best time to buy is when it's in the gutter and no one talking about it. There'll be another opportunity considering how fast this is all starting to rise.

I hope so too! I only bought a couple of months ago so we're not taking major money anyway. I didn't want a repeat of 2017 where I held throughout and ended up with zero profits at the end of it, but lesson learned here.
