not me
I've put in all I can afford to lose so I'm stuck with what I have for now

Morning Hodlers (and naysayers) - anyone managed to BTFD? I'm going to have a go now.
.

No, but I did have a limit order set @ 10k, which went through while I was out last night. My plan was to them BTFD, but I missed it. Only got a small amount in BTC though, everything else is in alts.

I've been reading about some of the alts, their whitepapers etc. Ripple & Stellar seem to have the same mission and are directly competing with each other, Zencash looks like an anti-snoopers charter kind of thing that the likes of Theresa May would try to get shut down if it took off. .

That is the appearance - but their missions are very different. And Stellar is cheaper to use than Ripple.

Ripple is targeting banks, SWIFT.

Stellar is targeting the unbanked. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1kKZ...isv1971yC/view

Think of it as one is top down and the other (Stellar) bottom up. Personally my money is on the one with the potential larger user base.

I'm mostly in alts as well still hodling from yesterday, XLM & ZEN charts looking like they're building a base of support and stella twitter feed looking positive but no Visa news yet.

It's a mini bull run. There was no proper correction. I still expect it to drop to around $8k before continuing it's rally onward and upward into the new year.

So if Stella gets a partnership with Visa is Ripple still relevant (and worth accumulating)?

Stellar is on the way back up slowly...no news that I've seen yet though

No Visa 'announcement' - I hope a lack of one doesn't make it tank.
