XRP is roaring still as is my ETH

Bill Maher calls it 'currency for criminals' which sounds about right, so it has some purpose, just not a very worthy one.
was he refering to dollars or crypto there?

All I can reply is that one day cavemen used to throw stones at the moon.

They didn't understand...
Good analogy. It would take millennia to turn it into anything like the stable international trading token to replace other currencies that people espouse it to be.

Until then it is just one of the many many investment opportunities out there. As some would say if this were an investment chat site… “GLA!” and “DYOR”.

I never thought I would say this, but there is one aspect of T.rump winning that was positive. My portfolio is up over £60k since the rapey liar won.

To the moon baby! 🤩

EDIT: Mostly ETH, SOL and ADA, with a wee chunk of BTC too if you're interested

£60k you say? I'm up ten times that amount, due mostly to MSTR's boom. Other big gainers: Coinbase, Semler, XRP, Solana.

Any thoughts on Cardano? rising steadily...?
No such thing as steady... down nearly 10% in the last hour :lolol:

I have a chunk of ADA that I've held for ages. Make of that what you will, this is not financial advice so the usual caveats apply.

If you hold the right crypto, just relax.

Sit back, let the market do it's f*ckery. don't get stressed, don't panic - just hold.

A great bit of advice I saw once was "let time do the heavy lifting" - and it's so true.

Have been intrigued by this thread and finally pulled the trigger over the weekend and opened a Coinbase account and have made a small stake spread across XRP, SoL, Hbar and Shiba. INU.

The initial stake is low and representative of my risk appetite as I know next to nothing about Crypto despite 25 years plus in FS.

Can anyone suggest some good reference sources that will allow me to improve my knowledge (strategies and assets to go for and avoid) I’m assuming there are some decent analysts that pitch to the layman?

Even advice on the platform is welcome, Coinbase UX seems slick but not sure how fees compare ( I did it for ease and trust)

Cheers
