Btc is down to 7200 and change and expected to bottom around 6000 before rallying although some are saying it could go as low as 2500.

Time to keep an eye on things and buy when it bottoms and with any luck it will be up in time for shopping xmas specials. 

 
I came to this section to check and see if anyone has posted about the low BTC dip :) I was considering buying some today to see if I could make a little $ in the next few weeks but since I don't have  alot to invest I'm not sure it would be worth it for me personally.

I am trying to figure out if I bought $100 worth and BTC climbed to $8,000 again, how much do I stand to make on my $100?
I am very math challenged- in case that wasn't obvious!! 🤣 Any number people around who could tell me a ballpark amount?

 
If it goes from 6k to 8k that is 33% increase so your $100 is worth $133 not including fees to buy and sell. Of course if it drops to $3k you've got $50

 
Personally I think the crypto markets are so heavily manipulated and investors so easily spooked that it is very unpredictable as an investment. Much of the volume being reported is known to be fake or trading bot driven on exchanges. It's the wild west still. If you are interested in actively trading there are sandbox environments where you can play trader, at least get a feel for how many variables you need to consider. 

There is an upcoming decrease in BTC block rewards, which ( combined with transaction fees) is how miners make money. The hope is that as BTC mining rewards drop and that slows creation of new BTC, scarcity will increase $. In mid May the block reward will reduce to 6.5BTC per block. About 87% of all BTC has been mined. It's capped at 21M BTC. Since there really is not a compelling use for BTC yet to drive demand it's all speculation.

https://coinmarketcap.com/ is a quick overview of the chaos that is cryptocurrency. BTC is just the tip of the crypto world, there are 3000 or so other cryptocurrencies seeking a part of BTC's market share.

 
@delawaredrew great post 👍 I know not enough, beyond trying to grab relatively low and spend when it blips back up. Or at least try to be aware of current direction when planning an 0rder

Prices like now are why you buy the dips.. NYE it was ~$7k. Now approaching $9k.... that's free value.
I know not all of us can or want to do it but if you have the $ and expect to order, BTD. Or BTFD in some groups, you can guess what the F is :)

You can get burned too, if there's a crash; but in my experience patience makes money with BTC. That was a hard lesson to learn, exchange fees and tx fees will eat small profits.

If you want to really go for broke you can get widgets for phones to see price at a glance and quickly make a buy or set a stop/loss to save your $ if you use mobile exchanges. Riskier because if not keeping any BTC on an exchange you'll probably be too late getting there. Risky to keep it on an exchange too. That's crypto; risk on both sides, unknown in front.

  1. S @ soupson: What happened to chem genie?
  2. D @ drdrizzy13: LSU is trash and has always been trash but a night game in death valley is unlike anything I've experienced. Except the first game back to the superdome reopened after Katrina destroyed it. Everybody was crying and drunk as shit lol. All time favorite in person sports moment ever.
  3. M @ meepmoopmeep: Kiffin is a traitor and he and LSU deserve each other since they’re both complete trash
  4. D @ drdrizzy13: yea he's a joke lol. Can't stand him.
  5. L @ Layne_Cobain: You know who rly sucks…lane kiffin 😂 dude is all that’s wrong with college sports or at least a big chunk of it…and he lied about being told he could still coach ole miss in the playoffs
  6. D @ drdrizzy13: Hey at least Ole Miss got in. I can't stand LSU. They really sucked this year.
  7. M @ meepmoopmeep: as an A&M fan I’m content with us missing the SECCG for that reason. Georgia about to fuck Alabama up
  8. D @ drdrizzy13: Yeah I agree if bama loses I think they are out. That would be 3 losses. I don't see a 3 loss team getting in this year.
  9. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah that’s why sark was pleading his case about that Texas shouldn’t be punished for scheduling a non conference game against the best team and losing if they hadn’t done that they’d probably be in but oh well way it goes there’s always gonna be a few teams who get robbed or feel they got robbed even with a 12 team playofff…if bama loses to Georgia I’d think they’d be out but who knows
  10. D @ drdrizzy13: Alabama also lost to Florida State pretty bad. Whom Florida beat. I just think if they didn't decide to play ohio state the first game. They would be in with 2 losses instead of Alabama.
  11. M @ meepmoopmeep: @drdrizzy13 Texas lost to Florida of all teams, they weren’t heading for the playoffs anyways imo. At least not this year
  12. D @ drdrizzy13: Texas is offically out of the playoffs they didn't make the top 12. I do wish they were in it. They showed up against Texas AM. But there fatal flaw was scheduling Ohio State for their opening. Which would have been great if they won but they are a 3 loss team now.
  13. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah idk about arch I could see him staying with Sark for another year but if he plays rly well in the playoff who knows that is if they get in
  14. D @ drdrizzy13: Man a lot of Saints fan want Arch but I think he said he is playing another year. I would take him probably. But if Texas AM QB comes out or Ohio State's I think you gotta take one if your picking top 2.
  15. L @ Layne_Cobain: Is the qb class supposed to be stacked or thin for draft in April I follow college ball but I can’t think right now I think there’s def at least a few high potential qb declaring
  16. D @ drdrizzy13: Right now I believe we pick 2nd. ATM.
  17. D @ drdrizzy13: At first I figured he might be able to do something but our position players suck. We are playing a rookie QB. O-line sucks. It needs to be blown up. I hope we tank for the first pick
  18. L @ Layne_Cobain: Hopefully you guys maybe find a solid qb option in the draft you should end up with a very good pick
  19. L @ Layne_Cobain: Yeah dude Moore def does not seem like the guy for yall need to clean house
  20. D @ drdrizzy13: I should say our receivers suck
