Yeah one of our members is teaming up with influx and he is a sharp S.O.B. when it comes to tech and it's practical application. Hold for now. If you neec to generate some income look at the cheap coins. Be careful though you can win but it takes patience and timing. Yesterday I turned a potential 5 grand gain into a 600 dollar loss with impatience and greed pushing my buttons. Also didn't help I was trying to day trade from my super non-stop busy 12 hour straight no break work desk.

Facebook has approved two new cryptocurrency tipping apps, according to the small team of dogecoin enthusiasts that developed them.
Lead developer Alejandro Caballero announced on reddit that the social networking giant has approved both his Doge Tipping App, which is restricted to dogecoin, and his Multicoin Tipping App, which got the official nod just this morning.
The latter allows 14 altcoins to be used to reward posts on Facebook in a very real sense, rather than merely giving them the standard 'like'. The full list reads: dogecoin, digibytes, einsteinium, fedoracoin, mintcoin, reddcoin, quark, worldcoin, vertcoin, karmacoin, earthcoin, trollcoin, HTMLcoin and donationcoin.
This is not the first time digital currencies have appeared on Facebook. CoinDesk reported last month on QuickCoin's wallet app that allows users to send bitcoin to anyone on their contacts list as simply as messaging. However, the new apps look to be the first dedicated tipping services on the platform.
‘Double hit’
“When we submitted the doge-only app, the Multicoin Tipping App was also submitted. But we needed to change several things to have it finally approved, which happened a few minutes ago,” said Caballero.
He described the approvals as a “double hit” and said the team is now bringing new coins to the big field “in the most pure spirit of shibing” – a reference to the Shiba Inu dog breed mascot of the dogecoin community.
The dogecoin community responded in kind, with abundant Comic Sans praise and a few dogecoin tips for Caballero and his team.
Limitations still exist
Using the world’s biggest social network as a payments platform is not a new concept, but getting approval and weaving around Facebook’s restrictions has proven tricky.
Although Facebook has now approved the apps, there are a few limitations users should be aware of. Notably, the apps can only be used to make tips in an approved group, but groups can be added and practically any Facebook user can be tipped.
Caballero explains:
“Tipping through the apps work from Facebook Groups, but once you joined one of them, you can send tips to every person existing in Facebook, from your friends list or not. We add groups on request. This way of working is the reason the apps where approved, because they promote social interaction without messing with user's preferences or security.”
Caballero’s team has big plans aside from Facebook and is currently working on a universal tipping platform for WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, Xenforo, PHPBB and others.
Dogecoin is already a popular medium for tipping popular content producers, but has been restricted largely to platforms like reddit. The new Facebook apps could see the phenomenon take off with a much larger audience.

I posted right under there what happened with this?
Does anyone know what happened with Xaurum??? It's a Bitcoin actually backed by gold and it was $1500+ in august of last year and dropped off a cliff.
was looking @ it y-day and immediately crossed it off my list when I seen that flatline
not sure if this has anything to do w/ it...digging around I read that they made a move from blockchain to ETH right before the blew up that was considered "dangerous"

*edit*
damn...I'm reading a thread on bitcointalk and it's kinda funny/sad...seeing dudes in sept. 2016 (2 weeks after the plummet from $1000+ to under $0.10) still tryna hype the coin and talking about "hodl" and "moon"...god I hate that fucking forum...I'm still reading around but from what I'm getting...it hit the market w/ that high ass price and pretty much dropped soon thereafter
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1546279.0
I'm starting on p. 29 which is a day before the crash happens...it's making me realize I might need to pull out of OK and just lick my wounds...wow...the coin crashed from $1500 to $0.09 and dudes talking about now is a good time to buy lol smh...denial is a muthafucka
I wonder if @Spectrum or @gene cisco could shed light on this given their experience w/ altcoins...I can't really call it...I can't tell if it hit the market high and dropped or was the valuation too high and it hit the market low

Has anyone heard about Litecoin being on Bitstamp Monday?
I think this is something we need to take a look when shit is down
I think this is something we need to take a look when shit is down
I was @ anger when OK fell out from underneath me...and that's more or less what I said @ that phase too...live and learn tho...all signs are pointing for me to just pull out smh lolI was crazy enough to @ the time to flirt w/ the idea of taking out $$$ from my retirement too
I have to be careful too...I have fallen into the habit on the last few coins of buying @ belief/thrill which is a sure way to get burned
Got QRL on my watch list, I am waiting for the buy in period it was running to hot. Sometimes you gotta miss that first wave of action. I learned the hardway twice with other coins lol.
However I think you will be fine if you hold.
Kind of hard for me to keep up with everyone. We have the private group going on Slack. We wanted to keep it small at the start but there are a couple more spots left. DM if you didn't get an invite from me yet. Provide me an email address so that I can send the invite.
Gonna through some bucks at it to see what it do. I wish I was more proactive but hey can't be everywhere at once. This is the best explanation I have heard.
Current price .44 cents
Opened an account on Bitfinex.com
just don't sell if you are below breakeven. Try your best to wait till even. I got emotional and did that bullshit with Myraid coin who I figured was at least a a month or two away from me breaking even, I couldn't take it. I made the lost money back in 2 days, but that ain't the point,lol.
WTF yall leaving me out????? Man look here. bout to hit you with the PM I got the slack app never used it though.
it's been a week...I will try to wait til next weekend and see if it gets pumped again...but that is $$$ I could use right now to solidify my position in other coins I have during this down time that they are red
