Is Radium available now on a verified exchange?
https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/radium/#markets

polo has it's bright moments, but ... but but, bittrex is probably better bet - but I hate their UI Wink

there is a less than 0% probability that I ever use Polo after reading  all the negative stories. Anyone here  evver withdraw a nice sum  ( more than 50kusd worth) of coin from bittrex?  Leads me to my next question. I see people happy about how much money they've made on decred... but has anyone here actually  cashed out a significant sum of money from decred? I'm just using it as an example.

just want to make sure of something. I understand the fiat part but let's say i have a coin...  and I try to convert it on an exchange. So far so good but then I wanna put it in my wallet. They can't stop that?   

If your coins are on exchange basically you are not owning them, if you make withdrawal request it may or may not be processed, but in verified exchanges it's not an issue really.
Do not use strange ones and you'll be fine.

Couve, I'm likely going to do that the more I think about it.
Never ever do that!
cryptos are here for everybody to be their own banks, letting somebody else to play with your money is much more riskier than proceed on your own!

"sorry bro, you've lost all .... bad luck, give me more" this is what actual stock-exchanges looks like. Been there seen that (before cryptos was born), lost money and never ever again

Smiley i think you confused couve with the guy before. I'm going to  slowly introduce the money into the exachanges. There's 0 chance I give my money to some fund. I'm quite confident I'll be ok doing this.  I'm gonna put a lot in btc  most likely just because i think its safe and  i'll invest a sum im ok with losing  such as $5000 to $10000 into one or 2 of these altcoins that might go up a lot. If they don't, i'll be annoyed but not a huge deal.   Is Radium available now on a verified exchange?

If I would have 100K I would invest 1000$ in every top 100 Wink (on dip)

some people had same idea... but in my humble opinion it is just stupid. You will gain on one coin and loose on three others in same time.

Yeah it was more a joke.
What I have done after I collected initial capital:
splitted it between 3 coins of choice and 25% left for day/week trading. So if you have some little time you can try to find short term projects to play with it, earned money I am splitting again between all options or adding new one.

doing exactly the same, I think 2017 is major year for quick not-so-hard profits with smaller amounts of given portfolio... Wink
yeye


so the odds of one of these exchanges just refusing to transfer and  seizing my account are very low? Apologize if this question is very stupid. I'm only really familiar with btc and never had issues as of yet

I would say it's not low, just do not store much money on exchange and use bigger ones like bitstamp for fiat-crypto transfers, then rest of the exchanges for crypto-crypto but always make sure u have your funds transfered to your wallet when you do not need them on exchange!

Hello, this is my first post but have been reading a while. I registered because there a few users who really seem to know what they're talking about.

I have a lot of questions  so  please have patience

I'm going to be investing around $100k into a few  coins. I don't understand the logic of investing in 15-20 coins and investing solely in 1 coin seems a bit risky. My first question   is  regarding the big stable coins.. I  want to invest at least half of the $100k into   a coin such as btc, eth, ltc

Out of the the big coins, which would you recommend  as the best  bet over the long run? My definition of long term is  3 years minimum. I feel very safe investing into btc but if the consensus is eth or ltc  I'll take that into consideration. A mix of 2 of them is also something I'm considering

Now to the altcoins.  I'll likely be  starting  investing  in some altcoins  within a week or 2.

Which altcoins are you guys really really  hopeful of?  I'd like to divide this into 2 cases.

Altcoins which will be a boom in the   long run and should hold.

altcoins which will see a huge boom  within a few months/days/weeks  to a year  which  then might dip or crash. I'd get  out of these coins during the pump and buy more  btc/eth etc   then  repeat the process.

I have another   questioning regarding withdrawals and trading. I'm currently in the United States and there's a lot of restrictions it seems. I'm cut off from many markets. Can I accomplish most of this while residing in the States or  would it to be beneficial to get a residency permit in a place such as Curacao or the Netherlands?

Finally, let's say I make a very large profit and attempt to withdraw  into a bank account or   into another wallet, should that nott be an issue? Which exchanges   should I be looking at? I'm currently using Bitstamp  mainly but now have an account on Bitfinex.   Fantastic board here


Besides the different points which were already raised, I would add that it would be better to also diversify your investment in regards to time-frame.

Meaning: maybe do 25k today, give it a couple days, another 25k, etc.

I would even stretch it by placing the 100k throughout a full month. This might end up being good or bad, but it allows you to decrease the volatily risk, which in theory improves your risk-adjusted returns profile.

Furthermore, I personally would work with at least 2 exchanges - first it is good to have redundancy built in, second it decreases your chances of being questioned about large amounts of money flowing through.

well 100k is huge money, I'd give them to the professional investors and trades, like some kind of cryptofund.

in the last of the post It seems that OP is thinking that it will be tough to make buy and sell directly for bank money is tough or complicated work , that is no a problem because we have many platforms to handle this thing .
In the starting of the post by OP , He is right at his place of thinking to lower the risk by investment in multiple coins .
Here i would like to suggest to OP tyat he should not invest all money but he should invest in small small amounts in the starting not with big because in the starting we need to know about thr main factor that why we got loss in this field and why we got profit , and that can be understood by us just by only to make loss+ profit like a lesson of trading .
Here my suggestion for the investment in the coin for the OP is that to invest in those low prices coin which have high potential like doge coin , RDD ,ETC , sia coin .

Which platforms are out there? I need to have my exit strategy in place before I really invest just to be safe. Converting on 1 exchange seems easy enough but I am worried if my investment is  a lot of money in a  few years(or dropping fast) that I'll have issues withdrawing from an exchange. Can these platforms handle this scenario?

100k usd is not that much money so you will have no problems with liquidity .... Wink

is there a number when it starts becoming an issue?   Example, if I had put a lot of money on DEC last year the  amount would very large(at least in my world)

Same like many others so liquidity isnt affected that much. Maybe slower.

Thats a lot of money to use on overvalued altcoins. I think you should start slow. Spend only little money at first and see how the value of the coins develop. If you are greedy and quick you are in risk to loose your money. Think what the real value of the coin is, not the speculative value in exchange.

Bitcoin and ethereum are the only really proven coins. Value of all others is based mostly on speculation. Even then ethereum is based on ICOs which themselves are mostly speculation.

I think there will be bigger crash within year. All will come down. Too much money is been poured into the coins without them providing any actual value. Of course after that they will rise again, good chance to buy cheap.

The first a lot of people are like to divided the amount into a lot of part caused by to decrease the risk and to make the subtitution strategy. Because some ico can get large pump more than 5x in a weeks. that makes they are try to choose a lot of ico rather than put in 1 or two coins. It seems you are in the safeplace such as bitstamp and finex, remember eth finex already launched.

I can survive a few years. I still have an ok business which will  sustain me. I saw a poster  say don't invest in btc but to me that's by far the safest bet out there.  It's the Coca Cola of digital currency. Most people that  know about digital currency conflate  bitcoin/digital currency.   That  is a very very strong case for btc.... My initial plan was 70 k, or 60 k into btc then  the rest into at most 3 others coins at 1 time.  I was thinking IOTA and sia though Waves has a lot of believers. I'm seriously considering a few k into syscoin then if that went up significantly I would just convert it back into btc. I  really see btc    growing and growing though who knows.  If Waves and a few others could be strong long term I'd put a nice amount into them but but not as much   as btc/eth investment

who knows ... that's it
you have to believe in your strategy no matter what, or tweak it accordingly.

If you are new, you will definitely have FOMO effect kicking you... you have to be strong to avoid that Smiley and you will be fine.
I'm not going to advise which coins to invest in, but personally I'm not really conviced about IOTA at all

But that's just me, there is so many option to choose from, which is good and bad alltogether as you want to invest in all of them but it does not make much sense to invest small amounts Tongue

I know, it's hard, be strong!
