Is anyone else starting to become a bit excited?

the Zeus document was proven to be a fraud...didnt even come from Zeus.

Also, I know there are a lot of XRP haters on here, but it looks to be setting itself up for a bit of a run. XLM usually follows. I'm also seeing KNC as another good pick at the moment

Got an email saying there was a data breach at Ledger but customers funds are safe. Info about it on their blog here

Not great on their end at all :-/

Of course funds are safe as Ledger as a company isn't storing anything, but the 9500 customers who had their names, phone numbers, and addresses leaked have genuine reasons to be concerned. There is now someone with a database of names and addresses for people who potential have a high net worth in crypto, which some criminals might want use to try and physically extort money from them (there must be a decent proportion of large crypto holders amongst Ledger customers - those are the people with the most incentive to go for cold storage).

Another Ad from Zeus on my Twitter. I normally would block these but I'm letting them run for now to see how it plays out. More on the lawsuit below.

Wrong thread for this. Go post it in the "worried" thread or something.

This article appeared on Investing.com so it might be worth looking into.

I don't think there will be a coin like Bitcoin again. I mean buying really cheap and then next thing you are loaded.

I missed out on it by not knowing what it was, it was only after it shot up in price I heard about it. This is back when it reached the highs of 20000 dollars.

The mad thing is I met a guy I know a few years ago and he said to me things are looking up for me. I will be coming into a lot of money. I didn't even ask him how I just assumed in my head he was getting some sort of inheritance. He owns a house with no mortgage now.

Still a 50% chance of this going 10 X from here IMO over the next few years, don't give up hope yet.

Well now you know about it you can invest. It's gone steadily from 3k to 10k and the outlook is still good to reach 14-15k in the next few months.

I'm not going investing in it, you need to put serious money down to end up buying a house without a mortgage tbh. He bought back when it was worth nothing so didn't have to put down serious money and still made massive amounts.

Fair play to him for having the foresight to make some money

i know someone who cashed in his pension about 5yrs ago (150k worth) stuck it in Bitcoin when everyone else was sleeping and is now a multi millionaire

cashed in approx half (over 10m) and now has a serious amount of ETH getting ready for the next bull run

BTC was around $300 5 years ago. If you sold at the absolute top of just under $20,000 that would be a multiple of 67. Which is absolutely amazing. But $150k x 67 = $10 million. Half of that would be 5 million.

I may be splitting hairs but there’s just no need for exaggeration.

There was a thread here a few hrs ago if memory serves from the partner/wife of someone who'd stuck money into a BTC fund (Swedish one I think) that they had completely forgotten about and then rediscovered it a few hrs later with quite a nice bonus.
The thread was about their CGT liability iirc.

CHAINLINK is the only realistic moonshot left.
Spend a hour researching it and you will come to this conclusion, it is partnered up and working with huge well know names and other huge companies but not on the public radar
ISO 20022
PSD2
BSN (Chinese government)
T Systems
Numerous Banks
Digital Asset Holdings, read this to see who is behind it, Chainlink has BIG money backing it?
https://fortune.com/2016/02/18/blythe-masters-blockchain/
Practically all of the movers in DeFi are reliant on Chainlink.
Without Chainlink, Blockchain will be going nowhere in the real world, Bitcoin is old tech, no Staking, just a store of value, when Chainlink staking starts its going to be earning money for holders, it will moon violently.
I predict that within a few years those who dont pick up a bag now at $7.40 will be on here talking about how just like Bitcoin, they have bought a fraction of a LINK.

There have been and will be more shítcoins beside Bitcoin which have multiplied massively.

High likelihood he made money splurging on other shítcoins too.

Well if someone was on the ball enough to buy bitcoin then they most likely bought through ETH too. Prob has a bunch of random coins like all of us

It's like a wave. Defi tokens go up, then a few days later the money is moved so ETH, and then into Bitcoin.

If you strike the right Alt you can make a nice bit. The risk is you start chasing every new coin that promises the world. You end up with lots of garbage and they do nothing and drift off to be worth nothing.

It can be fun though. But pure gambling.

I've generally a 60/20/10/10 split across Bitcoin/ETH/Alts/Defi.

What some folks do is rebalance the percentages . So if they get a run on a given alt they will sell a portion back into eth or btc to maintain the balance with the larger more stable coins.

Another thing I do if I have lost confidence in a given token or realise I have too many and not able to track them and make big gains on a favourite I will sell them after after any pump and consolidate periodically, into maybe four or five large positions .

I know I could just Google it, but it's probably better to get a real person's view on it. were many of yous into crypto during the 2017 bull run? do you think this is looking similar? I think I'd prefer a slower rate of growth, this seems like a bubble that could pop at any moment.

If it continues to rise tomorrow and the next day then I will call it a bull run.
