Hey Everyone, today I am providing you with a list of websites great for doing your own research(DYOR). Then I will give you an update on my spare change investment portfolio.
When doing research on a coin one of the first thing I tend to look at is market cap. When I first got in, and a lot of people think this way, I went for the cheapest coins, oblivious to market cap. Then I came to realIze market cap is much more imortant. For instance Tron is sitting at about 5 cents a coin, at #15 on the market cap, with a 3.4 billion market cap. ICON is sitting at $4.75 a coin, #22 and a 1.8 billion marketcap. So in reality even though each ICON coin is much more expensive in USD it is actually a cheaper coin, with more room to grow.
https://coinmarketcap.com Pretty much the standard goto for basic information and charts on all coins.
https://www.livecoinwatch.com Similar, lesser known to the site above, but contains more features, like disabling Korean exchange prices, realtime price refreshing on main page, and you can sign up for a free account to enable even more features. I am trying to remember to click this site more than coinmarketcap these days.
https://coinmarketcal.com Here you can browse or look up specific coins to check for upcoming events. Helpful because the hype is real!
https://coincheckup.com Gives you a diagnosis of sorts on coins, giving different aspects of it a percentage rating
https://cryptflix.com Like what it sounds, videos all about crypto.
https://www.tradingview.com For all your technical analysis needs, sign up for a free account and start practicing your TA or view the analysis of other members.
There are ton of other sites, including crypto news, but these are the ones I use on a regular basis for research purposes.

Recap: Started with $156 worth of change, and bought roughly 1.8% of a bitcoin.
Current: Holding 6.84535367 Ethereum Classic (ETC) valued at 370,000 satoshi or $42.33 each
Current porfolio value .025 bitcoin = $290
Net profit .007 bitcoin = $125
Current plan is to ride it out a bit more, as I believe there is a lot more room to grow going upto the March 5th Callisto airdrop.
I am sure you have all heard about the man who went to the Buddhist hotdog vendor and said “Make me one with everything”. Well he does just that, and then the man goes to pay and realizes he only has a $100 bill, so he asks if that is ok. The Buddhist hot dog vendor says “Yes, yes, sure no problem.” The man patiently waits and eats his hot dog while the man is helping another customer, and then another. Finally the man says, hey I gave you a hundred dollar bill, where is my change? The Buddhist hotdog vendor looks at him and says
