really? Isn't that what I have been saying all along? Everyone said this coin was not about making money but about helping the earth and the animals and the trees right?
Trafficlearn cracks me up because he says he makes money on the way down. That is crazy, only if you were able to short this thing would that be true. He can ONLY make money if coin rises. If he sells at the top and rebuys in lower, he can only make money if it rises from there. YOU CAN NOT make money on the way down. LOL, that is crzy talk. Does he think he is trading on a stock exchange and he pretends he is "shorting". Too funny.
Now please all of you doubters go back a bunch of pages and look at my prediction of what was going to happen once it hit cryptsy. I predicted that it would hit 400 and then fall back to where it was currently then on coinedup. about 200-225. Now what did happen??? A couple of hours after trading on cryptsy, shortly before midnight, it hit 397 and has fallen ever since right back to where I said it would. WOW, TALK ABOUT NAILING IT ON THE HEAD.
My next prediction, now pay attention as this is going to save you a lot of money(not that we care about profit) the price you see now, around 208 is going to be the highest level you will see if from here. We will fall sub 200 today or tomorrow and by weeks end we will be around 170. Watch and learn trafficlearn, and that is how you predict it. Learn from the master son.
Hi, Atlantis, why so cross?
Sorry, I have gotten beat up and strung up over here for the last few days because early on I started talking about wanting to make a profit on this coin, BIG NO NO here. Anyhow it got nasty. Actually I am happy, thought I could hold out and get a decent price but alas no, I finally managed to sell all 1.2m between 3 exchanges , I do not think we will go up from here, we could, but I think it is down from here. There is zero buy volume. Usually when a coin hits cryptsy excitement carries it to spike up pretty decent in the day following listing but that didn't happen at all with this one, sadly. Maybe it will go up and if it does great, I won't be too sad, a little maybe, but I think the downside is too much and I can't figure out how to profit on buying cawwots and planting trees. So, I'm out! Goodluck on the vege farms, hope you make it.
Ok, I just wanna clarify a couple things. I've been following the coin since day one, but did skip some of the posts in the middle, because it grew like kudzu. I didn't see anyone bashing profit, or really even you aside from Trafficlearn. I jumped into somebody else's fight out of sheer amusement, and I think I did wrong. It was funny, but you don't seem a bad sort in retrospect, so I apologize.
That being said, I am the last person on earth you can say is not interested in profit. I'm an agorist. I firmly believe that every single human action is done for perceived profit, even if the actor says or thinks otherwise. The problem is that most people equate profit solely with monetary gain, and that just ain't the case. Profit is simply gain over and above what you've invested. Be it time, emotion, or yes, vegetable farming. (which by the way was the beginning of all economies known to man, so don't bash it too hard). Even charitable giving has a component of profit to my way of thinking. In fact, it's one reason I don't give to most charities because they operate at a loss on all spectra. They don't really help the people they are supposed to, they piss away the money on boondoggles, and they lie about it. Those who give a hand UP instead of a hand OUT get my money, time, and support. There aren't many like that.
I like the idea of mining to support a farm. That could be expanded upon to profit all involved, including providing employment, food, and money for those who can use it, if done properly. I've actually had something similar in mind for ages. Long before cryptocurrencies. It is my contention that a "non profit" charity is a scam.
That being said, there is never anything wrong with a just profit. If ya stole it, that's bad. If you didn't, rejoice in your gains. I may read back through all of this and see where the fight began, but I haven't seen anyone bashing the idea of profiting by this coin. What I have seen is a development team that is more interested in the future than the present, and are working in the present to make that future happen. If day trading is the whole goal, well, there's a bunch of coins out there that are good for that and nothing else. I think this one has a longer term potential, and most assuredly at a profit.
I would suggest that you tone down your rhetoric a little bit. When you do, you make good sense. When you start raving, you sound like you're raving. If the long term goals don't tickle your fancy, that's all well and good. They do mine, and judging by how fast this community is growing, I'm not alone. I'm no tree hugger. I love trees, and have spent the best times in my life in the wild, but I'm a humanist. I think we can find a harmony with the rest of nature, and that we should, but that the survival of OUR species is the paramount goal of our species. I see most of the so-called environmentalists as dupes and their leaders as traitors to humanity. If this coin can help those goals, it's worthy of support in the long term. If it can drive out some more of the centralized, collective minded horseshit known as government fiat, even better.
May you find your profits in all of your endeavors. I think you're alright, just abrasive.
As for making money on the up and down swings, yes it can be done. It's not a game I'm comfortable with, but I've seen it. You and Trafficlearn were both right and both wrong in some things. So stop bashing each other, it accomplishes nothing except some amusement to the observers.
Peace?
