Lancaster Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 An indirect way to invest in bitcoins would be to purchase shares of CME and CBOE, the exchanges that will handle some of the bitcoin instruments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drummer4now Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 IMO bitcoin will just faze out like tulip mania... it’s way too volatile and unstable to be considered a currency... it first needs to be stabilized. Having said that crypto currencies are the future, just not bitcoin. I hope eltherum is the future and will learn from bitcoins mistakes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently coinbase is a crappy bitcoin exchange for Canadians now cause they don't allow withdrawals anymore. So I'll be needing a new exchange to buy and have to find a wallet to store the coins in. if yer still stuck with bitcoin on coinbase...you can transfer it to GDAX, their sister exchange for free...then send to Quad or Binance from there for withdrawl or further trading. coinbase is not good for canadians wanting bitcoin....unless you also have a gdax account. ive used coinbase for small CC purchases of ETH then send from there to Binance to trade for alt coins....really quick but you pay 3.99% for CC funding. ideally Quad is a better option if yer trying to fund with actual CAD via interac online. cibc customers are less fortunate cause cibc doesnt have interac online....RBC seems best bet there. Quad is probably the most trusted but has long wait times to verify atm....and they disabled e-transfer.

Trade my btc/eth/ltc for xrp? yes...binance verifies easy with just an email....they have loads of alts including xrp. i would send eth if yer not with gdax....maybe trade btc for eth then send. but if you have gdax, they dont charge hefty fees like coinbase does....coinbase is cheap to send eth straight to binance mind you. small tip...to cut yer fees in half on binance for trading.... buy a couple binance coins....yer fee will get deducted from the binance coin and it will be half what you would pay otherwise. i like xrp myself...she is really starting to lift off and there is alot of catalyst's this month....and spec that coinbase may be adding it soon which will def boost it.....but do yer own research of course and make informed decisions where yer money is concerned. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you think has more value long term - Ripple or Litecoin? how long is long term? XRP is a pointless token unto itself. but if you're thinking in terms of YEARS, please keep in mind that the company Ripple owns a massive chunk of its own tokens. 16 billion dollars worth. they just locked up 14 of those 16 billion just to prove to people that they aren't going to saturate and manipulate the market (anymore). in a few years they will re-release those 14 billion dollars worth of XRP and slowly but surely hoover up all the profit they can, which could be a lotta red candles for bag holders (in shorter term, though, if XRP does get added to coinbase as many believe, it'll surely just go up more in coming months) Edited January 3, 2018 by GLASSJAW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jägermeister Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Read a story on XLM yesterday and something about it just clicked for me and made me decide that it was time to get involved in cryptocurrency. Invested in it this morning and have to say I'm liking my choice so far. Sent a buddy an article on TRX earlier today as well and it convinced him to invest in it. I fee like he should owe me a beer or two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HI5 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Trx has been climbing last few days, thinking abt buying. Contemplating if I should buy now or if it’ll drop back down a bit in the coming weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
