Looks like Bitcoin is going to make another push. Usually when this happens it drives the price of alts down. Might be worth waiting at the minute.

Good time to buy alts then if you like your day trading. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously none of it is real till you cash out. But it's a good day today. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genie Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 I’m pinging my £134 bitcoin over to bittrex to convert to ark, I expect it’s got more chance of making a few quid there than as bitcoin (but of course who who’s?). Should take me up to about 130 Ark. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If history repeats itself, should have a nice little pump after its release. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 (edited) Done that now, proud owner of 121.9 Ark and 2.83 Litecoin. Bought for a total of £800 over past 2 weeks and now worth £1,212. That pretty good going considering I spent £400 on Litecoin at its peak this week which then dropped 20% and has since recovered.

Stevo985 Posted December 17, 2017 VT Supporter Share Posted December 17, 2017 My portfolio, bought for a little under £1400 in the first week of November is now worth just under £4,000. Not bad. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd be tempted to cash out and pay my mortgage off - least you can see a tangible benefit then and if it crashes afterwards you have still achieved a massive benefit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be the sensible thing to do, but with so many releases coming out over the next few months for some of my investments I think I'll ride it out. Overall Market Cap is now 600 billion. Craziness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexbelowsound Posted December 17, 2017 Share Posted December 17, 2017 Why can you purchase Bitcoin with money but can only buy ARK with bitcoin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can buy bitcoin at Coinbase which accepts card payments but not Ark. therefore you have to buy one of the currencies available on Coinbase, then send it to another wallet like bittrex when you can exchange it for Ark.

I get that bit. Why is that though? Is it because ARK isn't actually a currency like Bitcoin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it’s more to do with the websites that sell it rather than the coin itself. Coinbase only sell Litecoin, Bitcoin and Eth but I think it was mentioned in this thread that it might start selling Ark and others in the new year. Could be wrong though 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Need to set a side some time to properly read this stuff. I enjoyed doing that match betting stuff when I got into it and whilst this isn't the same it seems to have a similar breaking in period.
