I think it probably goes on at least one more run, and potentially to a dollar but who really knows. Also, Cardano is on my watchlist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would agree in a vacuum with that sentence but Not really In reality . Bc if cryoto ever crashes it won’t be bailed out . The dollar is basically backed by Oil and the Us military for decades and it supported still by the biggest deepest market in finance ..the US treasury market 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We might be in a Super Bull cycle and if so, look for 20% or more pull backs and jump in as soon as the uptrend resumes. That's what I did last weekend. I'm up a few thousand in a week. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That suggests you were playing with bigger amounts than most people want to risk. However , it doesn’t matter because even if you only invested a few hundred dollars, a 20 or 30% profit in a week or two is way more than you’re making in almost any other investment. very risky but yolo.

Yeah I put in 7k. My other investments are pretty conservative, so figured to try something different. Better then earning .25 in my online money market. My one friend who works in tech is huge in crypto and recommended XRP. He thinks it's going up to $10+ per in the next few years and believes its going to replace electronic/wire transfers in every bank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
