    I did not - However had I done that when I consulted with Scoots about it my portfolio would be quite a bit larger as i'd have bought back in at around 7.2k. His advice I think was the better play though - hold on and wait.

      My single biggest regret of last year was not holding and reacting to market price movements. Stupid.

      Bottom line, if you make enough for what you need. Take it and be happy. If you don't need it, leave it. That is until the end of year for the broader market. Afterwards we find out who the long term successors are likely to be, which we've already mentioned a number of times.

        Yep - agreed. This is why I sat back and did nothing. It's a continually evolving market; who knows it may all blow up in our face but im hoping not

          Hopefully There will be a small 5% gain in volume but if it's coinbase and not just binance I might buy back in earlier

            I'm glad things have calmed down recently so I'm not tempted to get dragged into short term trading. I'm looking at bitcoin (and any strong players that appear to have the legs to be around for years, still in the land of DYOR on that but those coins/tokens mentioned in this thread are a good start to look into) as a longer term investment, just in case the potential materialises.

            I can only see the pound weakening further either through more 'printing' or rates being artificially suppressed for political reasons (and also to keep government debt more 'affordable') while inflation takes off (it already has been for years now, see house prices, the FTSE, and any other current bubble in sterling then look at them in gold ). I see bitcoin as an easier hedge against FIAT currency devaluation than gold or silver, though I'm tempted to get some physical silver to spread the risk a bit wider.
            Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.

              Also keep in mind that you don't pay so much attention to the $ value. As an example my EMC alt has shot up near 20% this week in Satoshi terms. (I've no idea why).

                Hodling since September, should've sold or Tethered up in December but was a newbie.

                25% in each of the following:

                - ETH
                - XLM
                - ICX
                - NEO (and GAS as a dividend)

                  Just came across this which seems to be all of the pam beach content for free (at least the monthly updates).

                  Scoot, is this legit, i.e. the same as the info you get?

                    Looks like PBC. No Palm Beach Letter (the cheaper option).

                    Without videos though. Just the reports. Alerts seem to be missing also. i.e. we'll be advised *when* to enter a position and with what % of our portfolio.

                      BTC has dropped below the last threshold where I was dripping £ in so figured time to buy some more.

                      Used Uphold last time but now my payment is stuck at 'processing' for last 2 hours. It did say it could take up to 24 hours to complete but last time it went through pretty quickly, after my bank confirmed it was me doing the transaction. They've not been in touch yet so I wonder if this is more banking resistance with getting FIAT into crypto.

                      I hope those whales don't pump up the price before I can finish the purchase. Would have used the always slow SEPA transfer to save a few percent in fees if I thought it would take this long by card.
