HEATER IS A GAMBLING TERM

It's an interesting ride, that's for sure. But some of the speculation and guessing in this thread reminds me of an old investing saying.


Bears make money. Bulls make money. Pigs get slaughtered.

hahhaha

for sure man

i really dont know what to do, i like crypto but if you cannot keep it on an exchange for a week or two here and there....or while you are actively trading.....then i am kind of at a loss as to what is the point...

I do think its OK to buy and hold, in a wallet... but I am super shy about trading now..

I thought btc-e was OK...because i kept coins there for like 5 years with zero problems.... but yah... shame on me for sure.

and you are still in my will !!!

Were you keeping it on an exchange for a week or two or were you leaving it there for 5 years?

a week or two at a time maybe a month....over the course of 5 years...literally hundreds of transactions

i have heard that it is possible BTC-e will be going back up..and people who had coins there will get them back...

if that is the case, i will use them again...

I mean for me this was just a curiosity , i dont even know if it was 1/10th of a percent of my investments

So what do I gotta do to get my "bitcoin cash" from the hard fork. I've been too lazy to read to find out.

Gotcha. Just curious how long it was in there for. I know it can be just 5 minutes before a hack and it's gone.

I know you use this for poker etc, but you seem to ask way too many simple questions to be dabbling in crypto.

yeah , i posted in this thread literally the day i moved some LTC to btc-e and swapped for ETH

i left it in there, I think it was like a week...

and then a few days later the news about btc-e came out and I think I made a post again in this thread...ugggh LOL!!

I have had some super crazy financial experiences and all I can say is I feel really bad for people who had serious coin in BTC-e and I don't blame people for blaming the FBI...it looks fishy as hell...

I keep reading that BTC-e was making a million a day+ on trades, and has every incentive to give veryone their money back ASAP...so when the dust settles I suppose theres a chance that it goes back up as an exchange....but I guess we will know in maybe a week?

Have to learn somewhere? That's why we ask questions, to learn. Poker actually forced me to use bitcoin 1.5 years ago. Didnt really dabble by choice at first, but Its been fantastic

awesome adage

Where were you keeping your BTC?

So where do you guys buy ethereum?

i bought mine on BTC-e

LOL

wouldnt even think of giving anyone a recommendation as to where to buy one now....

I think I would avoid any site that was russian or owned by any russians though...unless BTC-e actually follows through with their word and restores their site and everyone's coins ... If they do, then I might change my mind on this...

The exchange from BTC to ETH is definietly the most vulnerable part of the whole thing...

I think coinbase is pretty safe to exchange dollars into BTC though....
