Why would you recommend it over Doge?

LTC i would says is a good coin for that.

its a memecoin

Sure! Though I'd say just about any currency is fine to get started with. Keep in mind that you don't have to purchase an entire unit of a given currency - one Bitcoin may be $40k, but you can still just buy $10 worth (just be cautious of transfer fees, both withdrawing from exchanges and sending from your own wallet).

I'd recommend also looking at ETH (using MetaMask as an in-browser wallet to interact directly with websites is pretty cool) and XMR (dirt cheap transfers and your financial privacy is safe).

no, the blockchain is opaque

it's recommended to split purchases into dedicated stealth addresses, and I'd personally do:

buy XMR -> withdraw to stealth address of wallet #1 -> move to stealth address of wallent #2 -> spend

Along with a fake Companies House number that's tied to a company in England that dissolved years ago.

Along with one review on their Trustpilot all in capital letters.

I'm just going to assume this is spam at best and a scam at worse. Members have been warned.

Edit: Yeah, no history online or on reddit so I'm just going to go ahead and assume this is a scam.

yeah, you have a point for sure. Just never underestimate a good 'ol bear trap.

Don't really agree about that. I think much of bitcoins (if you don't count burnt bitcoins and early miners' wallets) are now owned by large investors / bank / funds, so professional guys and not the average shaky-hands Tom.

The difference between now and 2017 is institutional investment, which is made by professionals, who are supposed to take a more rational approach.

Besides, we were floating around 10,000 USD before this bull run, so we're now at 2x, while in 2017 we went from 4,000 USD to 20,000 USD, which means 5x.

I'm confident that 18,000 USD may be a good support level, and the sky may be 30,000 USD at the end of 2021.

Of course mine are pure speculations.

Same thing is to be expected now. Expect a bumpy ride, remember, a heck of a lot of folk got in between 15k-20k, and then BTC crashed to 3.5k. Three years later, many will be around break even, and happy to exit at zero ROI. A lot of hands will be shaking before moon rockets are engaged.

Not a bad deal really. I had some "change" in an old wallet that I cashed out recently after sitting there like six years, but not enough to do much with. Still was nice though.

I think the times for 10X are over, yet I would be quite confident about a +30% in 5 years.

Everytime I read these headlines I cry inside a little knowing that when it was $40/BTC I wanted to spend $100USD on Bitcoin but wanted to wait 'until the price went down'.

Then over the next few months it didn't go down, it went over $1,000 and people freaked out.

Live and learn. :)

• The ones with an established history
• The ones with unique features
• The ones with transparent development

Fact is, it requires ton of times and specific knowledge to check the previous poins.

As far as I'm concerned, I'd go with a portfolio of about 80% BTC, that I'd be reasonably sure to increase it's value with limited risk over a period of 5 years.

Maybe some unknown alt-coin may turn me rich in one night's time, but risks are huge; I'm not willing to invest my time, nor I have the knowledge, to look for the next crypto shooting star, and I'd advise anyone not to.

Just hope Bitcoin doesn't turn from "the drug money" to "the porn money"...

I thought Monero was the drug money now, lol.

That means that a top 20 website (in term of traffic) is only relying on Crypto Currencies; may not be noticeable in terms of market volume, but surely will as adoption.

Just hope Bitcoin doesn't turn from "the drug money" to "the porn money"...

After having their business fucked by Visa/Mastercard, it's not surprising that they'd push more towards crypto.

Good move on their part.

wait... bitcoin is totally public?

"If things develop anything like 2017, we could see more than 10x $BTC from here"

Thanks a lot man, you're basically saying that if it goes the same way, it'll go the same way.

This is not prediction nor speculation; it's just statement that if price mimics 2017, then it may develop the same trend.

The guy works for Glassnode, a service that provides charts and metrics, it's definitely in his best interest to build as much attraction to Bitcoin as possible.

I got in around the same time & made good gains getting into XMR & Nano early. IMO, Noobs & Normies entering this space should probably just stick to basics like BTC, ETH, & Maybe a bit of XMR before they touch mid &, especially, low cap alts.

I did the same thing. I now look at it as another way to diversify. I have maybe 2 or 3% of my total savings in crypto, half in Etherium and half in BTC. I have a tiny amount of Chainlink from when I thought it made sense to buy on rumors in the hopes of catching the next huge jump.

But there are so many small cap coins now I don't see how you can possibly differentiate between true hopefuls and "pump and dump" type stuff. So I picked two biggies as just another way to diversify. Each pay day I put a small amount of money in to them, same as I do index funds.
