Stevo985 Posted January 18, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted January 18, 2018 So basically you keep the codes or phrases on that drive? Or does the wallet sit on that too? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I've added some more to Flixx altho it's already up 30% before I went back in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its the key to your wallets. I have the same one by the way. with out that device plugged in to the PC and the 4 digit access code you cannot access the wallets. Obviously, If you go away without the ledger, you wont be able to access the accounts. I understand if you lose the ledger, there is a way to get access again with the 24 word recovery sheet, im not sure how easy it is though.

I have a ledger which I keep on me at all times, a ledger stored elsewhere which has already been "recovered", and a brand new ledger as a backup for my backup If you buy one, don't buy it off ebay though, people have been getting scammed.

PieFacE Posted January 18, 2018 Author VT Supporter Share Posted January 18, 2018 Yep. Can have as many as you like with the same wallet(s). Just recover your 24 word seed on it and it's good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 I see pro's and cons of keeping them on the exchange or locally. For me personally I'll keep them on the exchange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

imavillan Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Been following this thread with interest as a pal of mine has suggested getting into Ripple. Looking at it i think i'll spread my money around a few different ones as well like Fixx, Ark and also looking at Linx. I have registered on Coinbase and Bitstamp. Can somebody tell me why i need to have photographic verification like a passport/Drivers license? I assume all is above board as you guys are well into it. Ive been reading on the net about all of this but have to say as a total noob i'm still a little confused. Seems the more i read the more confused i get......... including the use of ''wallets'' I'm going into this for a bit of fun and not as a get rich quick scheme and will only be putting in what i can afford to lose, circa 500 Any very simplistic Janet and John style help would be appreciated.

Genie Posted January 18, 2018 Share Posted January 18, 2018 (edited) Blockfolio looks like a nice little app, it summarises your coins and values on 1 screen. You put the coins you’ve got and how many and it shows you their value. You can pick which exchange you want it to use for the price.

I was looking at MaidSafe and then hear about a rival called Filecoin. My technical analysis consists of checking how large the Reddit community is for each coin.

Genie Posted January 19, 2018 Share Posted January 19, 2018 Ok, who broke FLIXX again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PieFacE Posted January 19, 2018 Author VT Supporter Share Posted January 19, 2018 (edited) Ha, Flixx is a wait 6 months then check the price type coin I first invested in ARK when I was new to crypo when it was like 13p. Constantly checking the price a few times every day. Used to drive me mad. The beauty of getting in so early is that you'll also see good gains, but have to ride it out to begin with But you just have to let things take their course, one day you'll be up, the next day you'll be down, this is crypto. Time (and dev / announcements) will sort the price out Edited January 19, 2018 by PieFacE Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ender4 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 (edited) where is the best (safest, easiest and cheap) place to buy both FLIXX and ARK through buying BTC or ETC, and to keep holding it there on the exchange?
