Official BGOL Crypto Currency Thread ★★★★★

that's about $1.67 each...not bad @ all if it commands that $2.45 now and keeps going up
Honestly, I think this has outgrown a BGOL thread and we should be elsewhere. I know quite a few people with deep pockets and financial knowledge that might be interested, but I'm not sending them to a porn site to discuss this.
I have alot of people on ignore but @oskywosky isn't one of them. The thread moves so fast.
When I see a coin that red and if it past ny criteria I usually buy in since it has nowhere to go but up
Somebody predicted that by August 1st it's gonna pass bitcoin as the no.1 crtyprocuerency
interesting...like a facebook group...a twitter page or "slack" (know nothing about it but I've heard it mentioned several times in here)...I like that cuz I need to be able to find this thread quickly...I kinda can guess why it's not stickied anymore but @ the same time I liked being able to find it as soon as I logged in...my only concern is theres a lot of info in here I like to go back and read/refer to
Holy shit!!!
At the time I didn't have the bread to get the position I wanted. Oh well.
We can still access this thread. Its just that BGOL is really about talking shit and porn. We just happened to all meet and communicate on BGOL,but this forum is really the opposite of what we are doing in this thread. I don't know about yall,but I really haven't been going to any other threads since getting focused on this. When i'm looking at millions of dollars changing hands and having this opportunity, I just can't really get into shit like Amber Rose's pussy hair and whether or not Kevin Durant made a good decision.Additionally, there are too many people taking this to different directions.We have two threads now. I had no idea about that ICO coin you guys regret missing and i'm on this thread at least 2 hrs a day.
Heads up, I predict we get another huge surge in money into crypto. Tim Ferris is a very influential author and investor who has a podcast. Techies here in the Bay follow this guy.For example he made a recommendation to eat a particular Sardine brand and Costco ended up selling out nation wide.Just this last week he had two Crypto guys come on.One of them is investing in Filecoin. When Tech money comes into this, then we are going to see huge increases in all kinds of coins. In this particular podcast, one of the guests was really high on Ether and Ether has been up all week.
when the fuck is filecoin ICO? that's another one I got my eye on in addition to SONM and STATUS
I didn't see anything on the ICO calendar for filecoin...SONM (6/15) and STATUTS (6/17) are both this week
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Hmm, so here is my conundrum: I have about .6 bitcoin to trade. I can either go XVG (although I got in at 94 satoshi I continued to buy up to 220 satoshi) ... so buying XVG at this point would be to try and even up some of the heavy losses I'm taking with the current price dip, or, I can get a little bit of QRL. Thoughts? (I'm just asking for any opinions--to be clear I'm not relying on any opinions ...just interested in informed ones)
I appreciate you asking me but I can't answer that directly bruh (my bad I just read you're just looking for any/all feedback)...I can share my position in those coins and why I did what I did...I have more $$$ invested in XVG but what I want from XVG is a long shot (I'm hoping it hits 4 or 5 cents realistically)...I have far less $$$ in QRL bcuz my shit is stretched out but I think it's a more solid bet than XVG long term...you can get more coins for your $$$ and ultimately stand to make more $$$ if XVG rises but that's a big if...w/ QRL you will get less coins for your $$$ cuz it costs more but it's a "safer" investment long term imo...I would like to work my way up to 10k coins if the price drops lower...both coins are in a downturn w/ XVG being @ a great time to buy @ $0.0003 which is half of where it was @ when it peaked recently...QRL is still kind of in mid hype even tho the price went down a bit...bills said he's gonna see if it hits $0.50 ...I'm follow that lead cuz I would be able to get to 10k a little bit easier if it comes down to that price
*edit*
last word...I'm only in XVG bcuz I'm looking/hoping for that "get rich" coin cuz there were @ least 5 in here that if you threw enough $$$ in them @ the right time $5-10k would've gotten millions/tens of millions of coins which could've made you rich w/ the coin not even needing to surpass $0.10 so my choice of XVG is based slightly on emotion as it is my "dream coin"
QRL is a more logical purchase...not as potentially "sexy" as XVG but it looks like it could be a slow and steady winner

Yeah, I got some HMQ. They are supposed to fix that buggy ass app of theirs for a June(now July launch). Shit. At least they have an app. Some projects don't have shit yet.
wait...what?
dude clearly said he'd like to involve more ppl in this thread...but is antsy about inviting them to a porn board which may cause them not to take it seriously...now whether you agree w/ that or not is one thing...I don't get tho how you completely misinterpreted his intentions
If you're going to throw your long term hold money at STRAT, might as well throw some at WAVES
‘Real Businesses are Using Waves’, Says Rep as Altcoin Crosses $600 Million Market Cap
Frisco d'Anconia on 11/06/2017
In a month, Waves, the decentralized blockchain platform focusing on custom blockchain tokens operations, has risen almost 71%. It made it to the top 10 over the weekend with impressive gains. At the time of filing this report, it was at the 11th position on CoinMarketCap and crossed $600 million in market cap this year.
It is quite curious for a one-year-old project to make such strides. CCN decided to look into what is influencing the astronomical growth and spoke to Guy Brandon, Communications Director of the platform.
CCN: What is thrusting Waves to the new heights?
Guy Brandon: There are a few factors here. One is that Waves has now been around a year. It’s established itself as one of the more credible platforms in the blockchain space. Many of its core features such as token facilities, the DEX and gateways have been launched. Real businesses – both within the crypto world and outside of it – are using it. Tens of millions of dollars has been crowdfunded on Waves, and many other businesses are coming. It has gained major traction in Russia and Eastern Europe, and there’s a lot of interest at every level of society around it – business, government, individual, third sector.
Overlay that picture onto the spectacular bull run the bitcoin and altcoin markets have enjoyed over recent weeks, and you have your explanation for WAVES’ rise in value.
Q: Most of the time, altcoins skyrocket to the top and in a short while they dimish into the wilderness of Crypto rankings. Do you see the gains to be sustainable?
Guy Brandon: Yes, and I’d expect there to be further gains in the near- to medium-term too for the reasons given above. Waves is the foremost crypto platform in Eastern Europe, but there has been a deliberate decision not to market it too actively until it was enterprise-ready. Now it is ready, and so I’d expect to see another surge of interest as businesses realise just how user-friendly it is and start building it into mass-market applications. If you look at some of the most popular cryptocurrencies by market cap, you can see there’s a long way yet to rise.
Q: What is the guarantee that this is not a pump & dump?
Guy Brandon: Almost every crypto has experienced significant growth recently. WAVES is around 30x its ICO market cap in USD terms, which is great but really isn’t so much in the crypto world. It hasn’t been subject to the same kind of obvious market manipulation that other cryptocurrencies have been. When the dust settles in the wider crypto markets at the end of this rally, we’ll see which ones stand the test of time and are underpinned by real users. Given the activity in the Waves ecosystem, I’d be very surprised if WAVES wasn’t one of them. It’s always been a long-term project, and its holders have known that from the start.
Q: What have been some of the challenges?
Guy Brandon: Building a platform that is suitable for mass adoption is not straightforward! Speed and scaling are critical, as we see from the continuing discussion around bitcoin’s development path, and good Scala developers don’t grow on trees. There’s a saying that if you want a product to be finished quickly, cheaply and to high quality, you can have two out of three of those. Thanks to the generosity of its ICO investors, Waves has the funding to do it right, and it has.
Q: Every crypto’s growth depends on its community. What message do you have for your community at this successful juncture?
Guy Brandon: A big ‘thank you’ for starters. You guys resourced us, you’re our investors, our customers, our focus groups, our testers, our evangelists, our first business use cases. Secondly, this is an incredibly exciting juncture in cryptocurrency history – and in global history more broadly. We have an amazing opportunity here to revolutionise so many areas of life for the better, from financial transfers through to administration, with social, political and economic impacts. Many people have not yet understood the significance of this, but we’ll look back on 2017 one day and realise what was really happening. We’re glad our community is a part of that.

I mentioned Waves a while ago on here. It's LEGIT.
@oskywosky since we were just talking about XVG and we both have the same stake in it @ 2M coins (I was @ 4.5M but took some out when the $$$ stalled and put it into OK which was just as huge a bust as XVG was yesterday)...I was just having a convo w/ someone whose POV I trust and he shared this
it supposed to show developments being made etc...but there is a huge gap where development updates is absent from 10/01/16 to 4/15/17 (which is when the coin started to rise) indicating this might be a classic case of a pump and dump...I'm not too surprised to hear about it being pumped cuz every thing gets pumped but I thought the coin itself could reach @ least $0.01 ...I'm pull out half now and still leave a million in...but I wanted to give y'all the heads up...we've all been sharing info here...so even tho this may be bad news I had to share it...I'm still up but I've lost about $4k in profits tho (house $$$)

Damn, I may need to get away from this coin asap. Problem is, if i leave now i'm at a loss. ugh
ya that's my problem w/ OK my loss is too hard to abandon but I might have to put my pride/false hope to the side and save what I can and learn my damn lesson from this...there are 2 ICOs coming up...I might just pull out of OK and XVG completely so I can be prepared for them...the mentality is I can get back what I lost if I'm patient and invest in something more solid..."sexy" ain't always good lol smmfh
I have Bitstamp and Gatehub for USD withdrawls, but prefer Bitstamp because of lower fees. I did a wire with Gatehub who said the wire would take between 4-7 days, but it only took 3 days for me.

My only regret is I didn't get out of verge sooner, and I got out when it was a lot higher. When verge was over $80 million, a little voice was telling me to ditch now. Same thing with digi over 500 mill. I'm going to have to stop with this moon or bust thinking and learn how to take my returns out of shit coins when they pump high enough.
Not sure if this is the answer you're looking for but, what I have seen on smaller markets is that someone puts up lots of coins to sell. Given the sort term nature of the markets, people look and think that the rise is limited by this large wall. They then think that they should take profit, undercutting the wall. This continues and buys dry up, and the price falls significantly. In a rising market this often happens a few times until confidence is gained that the price is fair, then the wall gets eaten or removed.
Edit:Wall sell = means there is a whale or a group of people all selling a TON of coins at $x.xx (not at market) and there are not enough buy orders at market to break through that price. IF somebody sells 1 million XRP's at .40, you can be certain that the price will not go up over .40 for a long time.
