Is there something more official and sure?
Aside from the price sliding back down, that's the only problem that I have right now and I think the price is a result of the lack of official communication (PR). My long term outlook for VRC is very bullish, probably even more so than it ever was) but right now I'm having a difficult time maintaining my positivity for the short term. I have bills to pay and after having bought into the pump this weekend I'm actually thinking about cutting my losses, which would have been gains if I had followed my intuition and sold some coins two days ago while we were up over %120 at one point on the weekly chart. As it is now, I sold all of my other alts and a bit of BTC in order to buy more VRC and am now kicking my own ass for having overextended myself but I don't really blame anyone else because I knew what I was doing. I just thought we would have at least established a base in the 14-16K range but without any official release pertaining to the latest developments regarding our inclusion in the superNET (and that last 5% of the wallet that seems to be loading slower than a Microsoft Windows update), I don't see us maintaining an elevated price until everything else starts coming together.
If anyone has anything to say that might cheer me up right now please do it because I'm really feeling foolish for having posted so many positive things about VRC under my real name on Twitter and also for telling my friends to hold when they asked me if it was a good time to take some profits.
Having said all of that, I do feel like this coin has been and continues to be manipulated downward by external forces but by withholding the news from the marketplace regarding the latest developments, it's only feeding the trolls, the dumpers, the cryptocurrency haters and all of the other naysayers (as it just provides them with more ammunition) so I don't understand why it continues when it doesn't really take all that much time, money or effort to write a simple press release. I know that this is a digital currency and not a publicly traded stock but sometimes, especially like now, there is no real distinction between the two in regards to the marketplace as both are impacted to a large degree by overall investor sentiment.
Before I hit 'post' I have to say that I just looked and saw that the price was going back up a little bit so hopefully it's not just a bulltrap and all that I just wrote can be disregarded but hope is not a very good investment strategy so please, please, please, let us work on the PR a little bit because I can't even imagine how others are feeling who haven't discovered all of the merits of this coin (as I have after having done my due diligence).
Cheer Up Elmer...think of this as an investment for your future retirement. I've been here since May, many opportunities to sell...haven't sold once. Am I nave or stubborn maybe but I've come to the conclusion from reading many books on investing from successful investors and personal experience that this is the time where people loose the most money. They doubt themselves, their decisions and initial gut feelings. But if you've invested more then you can afford to loose then you will have to make a decision. I will let you know that I sold a fairly large number of Bitcoin back in September...because I invested more then I could afford. If I had held I would of been a multi-millionaire.
I did the same as you back during the initial pump and dump but held my ground. This project is still in its infancy and the devs have proven to me time after time that they are the real deal.
People are going to say "But nothing has been released for weeks!", what other coin releases updates every week or every two weeks? If they do they are usually incomplete and buggy releases. Why would the devs release something that is not ready! Now with the addition of James, the devs have support if they need any help with coding. James will be adding his own magic in way of coding to help Vericoin be the face and portal into the Supernet.
Vericoin is long-term! We will see where we are at in 6 months to a year!
Sorry if this post is a little bit of rant...toooo much coffee!
