I believe my first investment in an altcoin has shown me what a big mistake I made. My "buy the dip" strategy did not work this time and all it did is trap more of my Bitcoins in Decred that I am now scared to sell with a loss.
If there was a casino that accepted Decred I would gamble with it out of frustration.
You are the not the first time to made such mistakes, just remember that. I guess you are already trapped as you have said and the only way to get out is to incurred a loss if you decided to exit. Its your decision.
I also voted to Hold. Because we all know that the price could still go up by the end of December. Bad choice to dump and shift to altcoins. All eyes on bitcoin and with the incoming CBOE bitcoin future contracts on December 10, there still a lot of room for bitcoin to get to $15,000-$20,000 which we all hope it can achieved at the end of the year.
I am interested in what some of you are planning because as a "sheeple" myself, I follow where the trend goes. Haha.
My vote would be to trade some Bitcoins for altcoins, and in my situation, I traded some for Decred. With the price of DCR falling, I am now starting to think that I made the wrong decision.
Please vote and post your comments. Thanks.
I, too, for transferring some of the money to altcoins, to ensure a smooth transition. Just judging by the situation bitcoin is getting out of date and it's time to think about alternatives.
What you do mean that bitcoin is getting out of date? Haven't you heard that financial institutions started to recognized bitcoin and hitting 5 digits is just the beginning. I understand that altcoin is also an options but with all the news and attention to bitcoin now, its really hard to switch to altcoins now. Not the perfect tim.
