well guys, not much to say, hope you all help on tight. Could be the eye of the storm. Any spikes might not hold, but hopefully we are back on the way up. I learned my lesson about risk in the form of alt coins and BTC in general. Thankfully I have dodged anything serious (bitconnect or scam alt coins and exchanges), but at the same time this has opened my eyes to the reality of this market, which is complete unpredictability. The safest thing for now is obviously BitCoin and I definitely hold a majority of my position here, second with Etherium and a healthy balance of LTC to send for trades. Anyway, just needed to give a small sigh of release that we have at least stopped plummeting to the bottom of the sea. This is long term for me, and so was a chance to consolidate BTC into fewer locations and sell off a bunch of CrapCoin. I did keep about 20% invested in a few alt coins, primarily ERC-20 tokens, but this is more of a speculative quick sell on some up and coming ICO for NextCoin or HotCoin or WhateverCoin. I hadn't looked at CoinBase or CoinMarketCap for almost a whole day, which was refreshing. Amidst horror stories of people losing millions (really?) on BitConnect and Tom Cruise selling home and car to buy 500 BitCoins at the 16-17K level (ouch!), I was finally able to once again fantasize , ok how many BTC do I need to retire.... at $30K, at $50k, at $100K (maybe not in 2018). Hopefully about 20 BTC will be a million dollars in a few years, and I figure that should be just about enough. I don't need lambos and mansions, I won't be greedy, I'll settle for a million.... hahaha a man can dream right? dreams come true sometimes right? Well, this last market slide was certainly a pinch, now WAKE UP! :-) Happy hunting out there!
