Vlog 154: Bitcoin is taking a breather and Alts recover.

in dtube •  7 years ago 


I hope the markets have calmed down a bit because I need it :)

What a rollercoaster we been through this week.

For me, it was one of the craziest weeks in crypto ever.

Bitcoin is now hovering around $14.000 - $15.000 and the alts have time to catch up.

Eth is back $470 from a $380 low and Dash is flying.

Dash btw is the coin that got away from me.

I was in a boat at Steemfest 1 with Hilarski and his wife when he said to me I should check out Dash. A good coin.

Dash was $10 at the time.

I did not invest.

Dash today is $750.

Auch! lol.

But then again....I guess I'm not the only one that has stories of missed opportunities, early sells and what not.

Luckily I did not miss Steem and Steem is doing very well. Around $1.80 atm.

I am still selling all my SBD for STEEM. The rate is crazy.

I bought 53 STEEM for 10SBD this morning.


I hope this will be a calm crypto weekend.

I can sure use one!



I have recently become a witness with our developer group blockbrothers for the Steem blockchain. If you want to support us I would appreciate your vote here.

This ride has been insane. I only hope that it's able to sustain these lofty prices.

@exyle have you noticed that now you can choose comment reward methods just like post reward methods?

Well spotted! I missed that one.

It’s been a rollercoaster for sure! I’ve woke up in the midddle of the night a couple of times with various nightmares about cryptocurrency... Time to chill on the apps I use to check the prices I think. 🤣
Dash got away from me too... ha ha!

I seriously need to chill on my apps too. I just need to buy incrementally and let go of the short term gains and losses. It's too easy to psyche yourself out.

Glad to know I'm not the only one that missed Dash!

It is always good to be an early investor of a great project especially great team , innovative products and low supply. @exyle let me send you to my latest post for a new crypto/ project ...their presale will be over in 5 days with 1M total supply -this will be a new game changer , so another opportunity to invest and post about...am in already and very happy. Wish you a blessed weekend.

This pause is only temporary. As the weekend start the hedge fund investor are out of the market. Recently as crypto are recognized more and more big player like these are coming to the market. $15000 will just be a number once Crypto will become mainstream.

We all have missed opportunities with cryptos, I am glad that you are satisfied and happy with your Steems today.
Calm market would be ideal... but it would be a calm before the storm... I am guessing few upsurges are coming again in the near future.

@arnel Its not really too late, its just that everyones just focusing on the bigger currencies, you have to look for something like Siacoin, TenX, Vertcoin, OmiseGO, NAV, Substratum, Verge, and my favorite = ARK

its never too late investing in crypto-/ alt currencies you just have to expand your view!

Yes... I am looking at Eth, Iota, Dash, Golem, XMR. I have yet to look at ARK... thanks for sharing!

true

yes realy good comment friend @arnel

Oh yes, I agree with you that now is a great time to purchase the STEEM and increase your voting power, another possibility may be for a long time. As for Bitcoin, correction is very necessary, in order to restore the balance of other crypto-currencies. Thank you @exyle

Excellent vlog my friend, it's nice to see that at last some momentum shifted back on alts from bitcoin and that's good for crypto space and we might see some more correction in bitcoin, well i am also so happy with current SBD's rise and yest it's great time to buy some more steem and increase steempower with SBD's because might this rise won't last long and it's perfect time to buy some steem, you also talk that you won't able to buy cheap dash but on the other hand you make a wise decision at that time to buy steem at a extremely right time and i hope steem has a huge potential and to me steem will be at least a future ETH, have a very cheerful and joyful weekend ahead my friend, Stay blessed

i know we all have those missed opportunities, but the way the crypto market has been it is almost hard to lose. While you may miss out on one currency, you may gain just by holding in another. Let's face it with crypto one can go from feeling like a genius to feeling like an idiot in a matter of minutes. So exciting but a bit exhausting. So many opportunities so little time, right?

Good thing I bought some ETH yesterday :)

nice buy!

Missed opportunities...early sells..How does one know which to invest in? Where's a crystal ball when you need one!

lol, yeah a crystal ball from time to time would be nice.

Lol, or a crystal algorithm

You are right man, this week have been one of the best week on steemit, seeing sbd rising every day has been a good one for every steemians. But I do have self thought, if the prise will go back to $1

I have a fairly strong difference in time zones with the main activity on all exchanges. So I have to get up at 4 a.m. not to miss pumps. All this week my cat went crazy because he was used to getting food when I wake up (but it is usually 7 a.m.), so he had to wait for Breakfast for another 3 hours.

So I hope too that this will be a calm weekend for crypto :)

Go Dash!!!! It's rocking @exyle.;)

Enjoy! :)

@exyle,
I have a same story! ETH was at $2 and LTC was at $1 and XMR was at $1! I told one of my friend to invest there!He said he needs to invest on BTC! But after a week from that investment ETH, LTC, XMR started their trend and you know where are they stay now! I think SBD will make a new rally soon! If that happen we will not see it at one figure again!

Cheers~

I am glad I have steem to me it is the safest place to hold crypto with the time delay of STeem power it feels cool to see this all unfold before us. I am excited about the SMT and what they will do for steem. Thanks for your videos I enjoy them.

Thank you.

Indeed, the market is slowing down for the better.
Witnesses are taking measures to lower the SBD price, so trade all your SBD for STEEM quickly!

Eth is back $470 from a $380 low and Dash is flying.
Dash btw is the coin that got away from me.

It sucks to miss out on promising alts. I sold my ETH too early, at about 100 USD but I had bought DASH with that money, so it worked out well eventually.

@exyle, I totally agree with you now, I made multiple profits from sell steem dollars. Yeah..That's great time for buy and hodl steem or increase SP. In fact steem price will go rise. Bitcoin need to correction. Dash coin flying way again. Yeah I have heard dash is awesome coin module and price high.

A calm crytpo weekend is probably what we´re all dreaming of. Less movement and action would be nice for some time but that´s probably not going to happen anytime soon in the cryptosphere :)

thx if you think about what you missed you get crazy. if, if , if at least you have 100K steem power... that's you're step to a million $

Gave you my witness vote! :)
How is it with the amount of Steem you can buy with Steempower, does that fluctuate?

Yes indeed, btc a bit calm and stable for coming Monday,..... What will it bring on the stock markets.
Exiting times so for the end of 2017. But we all know; HODL what you got, but invest in STEEM is ALWAYS good.
Thanks again for the post!

"I am still selling all my SBD for STEEM. The rate is crazy.

I bought 53 STEEM for 10SBD this morning."

That would be crazy to me. I have do same thin as you did. Steem platform create lot opportunities for earn more profits.

everyone is eager to hear, how terrible the digital money show is skyrocketing. and many of them also harvest sbd by massively it's a natural thing. i am getting interesting to discuss this now..thanks so much.by @itasteemit

Helo guys i have not a job i want to earn money please give me some steems or upvote my posts thans guys

crazy weekend indeed a correction was needed bitcoin rised up too aggressively so this kind of dumps are healthy for the market and needed

Yeah this week was stressful AF! Kicking myself for buying BTC at $17k. Oh well, I think it will recover to much more than that in the near future.

I think what happens in the next few days will set the market trend for the near future. Hope your training is going well by the way :)

@exyle I love your comments on Crypto and I am listening right now..............

i liked your comment

dont traid daily

I'll be crazy. Which one do you want to keep. Take your suggestion tie. thanks @exyle

We all have missed opportunities with cryptos, I am glad that you are satisfied and happy with your Steems today.
Calm market would be ideal... but it would be a calm before the storm..

Thanks for Share this Article @exyle

Very nice one @exyle.
Dash is unbelievable
People should know better by now than to short Dash. There was a friend who got liquidated for 100k back in March after shorting Dash. And this was 100k before the 10x run up of everything. It was really terrible. Most people lose money in the markets because they refuse to wait for investments to pay off. When they do not get the instant payday; these people sell out early, and end up complaining how somebody else made a lot of money on what they sold for peanuts.

Patience and persistence certainly paid off for Tyler and Cameron Winklevoss. The legendary twins were laughed at when they bought $11 million worth of Bitcoin back in 2013. By October 2017 that invest was worse around $231 million or 21 times their initial investment

Gave a very good post. i like this post.
thanks for sharing @exyle

We all missed this great opportunity with crptos.
I am glad to know you are happy with your Steem Dollar.
I wishes you dear @exyle all the best.
Happy on Steemit.
Good luck

I believe this is the perfect opportunity for us Africans to use as very many of us don't have jobs.

Nice one @exyle. You know, just like you, I've chosen not to dwell on regrets of coins I missed. There is no way I would have had substantial amounts in all coins. New coins are emerging each day, and I can't know the one that would be a success.
No one can tell the future. I guess there were other coins you were told to invest in that you did not, and they turned to be a disappointment, in that the coins did not rise in value. All we just have to do is do a lot of study, research and questioning before buying a coin, and then most importantly go with your guts, it tends to be right 80% of the time.
Wishing all of us more luck and blessings in the future.

Thanks for taking your time to keep us informed 8)
im just waiting for Btc And Ltc to go down so i can buy some more lol

is that because steem is not taking bitcoin or has nothing to do with that?

is that because steem is not taking bitcoin or has nothing to do with that?

i liked this post because it s a great post

It will be very interesting to see how the price is affected when, (and it will be a when) Bitcoin crashes. Will it survive, will it bounce back etc etc. I think it is February 1637 and we are all buying tulips. My thought would be to get out now waiting for the crash. Reinvesting once the value has collapsed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tulip_mania

excellent video and great story,i enjoy this video
thanks for the posting

great post,excellent writing
very good job,thanks for the post
following updates...

Gracious yes, I concur with you that now is an awesome time to buy the steem and increment your voting power, another probability might be for quite a while. With respect to Bitcoin, the amendment is exceptionally essential, keeping in mind the end goal to reestablish the adjust of other digital forms of money. Much thanks to you @exyle .

Dear @exyle Really wonderful story i like it.Thanks for sharing:)I wait for your next post:)

Really good job bro thanks i like this post and your all post is very important and helpful

Thank you @exyle for this. You are not the only one that has missed opportunity stories
I have learnt it the hard way. One lesson i have learnt is to Ignore the Media and the Experts especially when your guts tells you there is light at that end.

Vast numbers of people lose money because they pay attention to the media and markets. For example, lots of people dumped their Bitcoin investments after the Mt. Gox exchange was hacked back in 2013.

Since then, cryptocurrency has been condemned as a fraud; a fantasy, and a Ponzi scheme, in an almost unlimited number of blogs and articles. To make matters worse, many people pay a lot of attention to the cryptocurrency media with its hysterical stories about hacking.
I cant be sorry twice. Thank you again.

I'm selling all my sbd for litecoin those prices are insane

good news for us and you are looking great and specially Christmas Tree is also beautiful....

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

I ma loving all the hype for both the steem and SBD .Hope we get sth good in return of the rise !
I got a small amount but it did felt awesome !!

I’ve woke up in the midddle of the night a couple of times with various nightmares about cryptocurrency... Time to chill on the apps I use to check the prices I think. 🤣
Dash got away from me too... ho ho ha!

Check out my latest post to try increasing the number of your followers

OMG. Dash is really crazily high. So sad I missed it. I made profits from the rise in SBD, but I've not been able to forgive myself for sending it all to poloniex with the intention of getting steem.

And up till now I've heard no word from them. I sent 20 SBD.
I wish your post on poloniex malfunction came much earlier,i probably would have been saved. Sorry for your funds too, i heard you also sent 50SBD.
I just pray poloniex resolve this issue.

Only bitcoin is in the red zone today and every alts is in the green good old days are back haha but how long we have to see that

It is excellent that the encrypted currency breathes some comfort as small coins are added to the Btc

to be short and simple there is a twist in the story

Calm before the storm !!!

Great post bro....

The market is serene and the bitcoin is unstable. Buying at this time is not recommended according to Japanese candles

This is very smart move Mr @exyle:
I am still selling all my SBD for STEEM. The rate is crazy.
I bought 53 STEEM for 10SBD this morning

Here is last one week's chart for BTC:

btc.png

What is your Thoughts on IOTA...?

BTC required this breather. It will bounce back even harder to hit $20K soon. What surprised me the most is the fact that LTC was priced $3.69 exactly a year ago and today it's price is $156.

By the way, did anyone used Bittrex during last 2 days? I'm having issue with BTC wallet. A SBD-BBTC transaction was carried out but I never received amount in BTC wallet.

Valuable post @exyle.

Wow, you mean you bought 53 STEEM for 10SBD this morning? I wish i could get some steem too. Enjoy @exyle

Now I have to say this - I came to Steemit without any significant knowledge about cryptocurrencies, and I definitely never liked vlogs.

But your content is excellent ;-) And now I see that you write in many other categories so Im gonna to check it. Thank you!

thanks for this information. I want that bitcoin price go up but not because speculation from new actors like wall street. Bitcoin is going to fight against a lot of new agressive investor. Can you tell me about steem dollar and why go up.

missed a lot of cryptos i just went in all for bitcoin and its now falling so badly

Thanks for shared this story I followed your work really your all post helpful @exyle

This is my first comment in your post.good work.useful vedio.@exyle

I’m not happy unless the 24hour chart looks like the alps.

Yeah, Crypto currency keep on rising higher every day and now stem back dollar (SBD) is rising day by day making investors richer everyday thanks for your post. Am indeed happy to be in this platform sir i will be indeed happy if you upvote my post thanks and God bless.

I think Bitcoin is calming too, cause its has been a really crazy week here too.

Hello again, visiting you.
I did not inverted in monero, iota, ether, dash, litecoin, xem, and wave, but I'm not going to make that mistake again, this time if I'm going to invest in steem to grow my account; I do not want to see a boat leave again without of me.

Okay I only got active and log in back to steeemit again and realize i missed so much!!!!! gosh... the ups and downs

Cryptos keep me up late, they haunt me in my dreams, and then i check prices all day. This is a very exciting time but an unsustainable way to live! I'm gonna go hug a tree.

There are no calm weekends in crypto hehe!
Not even christmas night will be calm in this world :D

Recovery of cryptocurrency market is a good sign for investor and now cryptocurrency market also will gain more volume .

wow...its great post..

keep it up

I made my first crypto investment right before the explosion, a measly $22 usd worth. Too little to late haha. I got about e same amount of dash two days ago...I'm thinking about what to do with my payouts coming in since I'd like to have a more substantial amount. But perhaps steem is the best short term investment right now that sbd took off...

This pause is only temporary! Buy more and most importantly, HODL! :)
STEEM ON! Big things coming for STEEM soon!

I'm afraid that bear market will be brutal like they always are with crypto. What do you think? Is the time of long downtrends over for bitcoin? I personally wouldn't be surprised to see bitcoin under 5k after we find a top. Imagine how new people will feel about that, gut wrenching!
