As you see I am pretty new to all this here and quite happy that it worked for me to invest really just a little money in ripple. I am just wondering how much you all invested when you talk about "hold until 2020" or what ever. I see always buying and selling 200k xrp in the books of bitfinex and asking myself how rich all of you must be.

I bought 600 xrp at 0,22 dollars. Am I the only one with such less amounts and hoping for the future and all the rest got 100k +? Sounds like it all the time.

Dont worry my friend. There are a ton of small investors just like yourself.

I'm slowly accumulating XRP by buying it using mined ETH...about half the mined amount goes into XRP...got almost 10k that way, not as much as you
presumed, but still much more than you

Ah yes, the old somebody else said something similar at some point and they may have been wrong... or early, so that makes you wrong too logical fallacy.

This is the first time I have said anything about it.  The ripple chart looks very bullish to me, but the bitcoin chart looks extremely bearish to me in the short term.  If it does not decline substantially in the next few days then I will happily buy back in, but it looks like it's going to plummet, and I know if it does then people will start dumping their ripple too.  Maybe if ripple were already being traded on coinbase it would be a different story.  I hope it does go way down so I can get more ripple.
You just need to zoom out a little more on the BTC chart, bull run is still very much in tact. Bitcoin is a device that transfers money from the impatient to the patient.
On the contrary I think bitcoin is a device that transfers money from cultists to realists.  It is worth nothing and backed by nothing and will ultimately return to that value in the end.  I am more than happy to miss out on a rally here or there and jump in when I'm confident.  As Mark Twain said I'm less interested in return on capital than return of capital.

Also the further I zoom out the worse it looks.  It went up way too fast and has a lot of room to fall, especially for something that unlike ripple is fundamentally worthless.

Ripple scoring gains around 20% today. Come comment with your thoughts on today's daily chart segment where it is featured.
Ripple has just kept gaining more momentum through the day. XRP/BTC markets are now at gains around 20% through the past 24 hours with traders continuing to show support for Ripple in spite of its great price increase lately. Significant profit taking has yet to take over Ripple as the market's sentiment keeps on being positive, but the longing of such levels of support is up to question.

No I actually just tripled my money going all in on ripple, but I am 100% in USDT right now.  Any other asinine assumptions you would like to make?  Please hold your coins.  You are much smarter than me.
Ok everyone, give a round of applause 👏 for I trust no one...he triple with ripple!

One more person told but you better get back to ripple. Because USD coins are not trustable for me generally. If you get fiat cash, that's good, but for others, I don't know. For ripple, the spike will happen early-mid 2018.
I understand the risks of USDT.  I think it is much lower than the risk of holding anything else at the moment.  Trading back to fiat would be ideal, but if I trade for fiat back at coinbase then it will get reported to the IRS, something I want to avoid.  I'll probably wait for the BTC crash, buy ripple around the bottom and ride it back up once more as BTC bounces back to ~$10k, then cash everything out for a while, into real cash.  I think BTC is entering a bear market.  I don't know how ripple will react in this situation.  If I do hold any crypto it will be ripple.  I have no interest in bitcoin, ethereum, or any of the others.  But I'm taking a wait and see approach for a while.
I'm not sure where you've been but the correction is already over. During every single correction, we hear a bunch of paranoid bears calling for the big crash that never comes. These people have been wrong every time. Never cry wolf! The charts don't lie.

I think BTC is about to implode, which means XRP is going down also.  Don't ask me why, that's just what people do.  I'm out for now.  I'll be back in XRP at bitcoin $5000 or so.  I wish there was a way to short BTCUSD.

Good luck to people still holding.  I think you're gonna need it.

You and about half of the people out there are estimating this (the other half is estimating the other way). And no, no one is sitting on the fence, if they are, then they have half positions down and half positions up.

There are two ways to short BTC/USD... Buy USDT Tether with Bitcoin, or buy any alt with bitcoin. You're actually, in a sense, selling Bitcoin to get alts, in a sense. So there's the way to do it, and every day people are trying to do it. Good luck to everyone, you need it whatever your skill, whatever the market.
No, buying alts or selling bitcoin for fiat is not the same as shorting bitcoin at all.   Altcoins in particular are a terrible idea, as they almost always go down vs the dollar when bitcoin goes down.  Just look at the ripple chart when bitcoin went under $13k.  Ripple went down to $0.70.  I don't why people believe otherwise.  Just look at the charts.  Holding cash gets you no money as bitcoin goes down.  You just sit there with the same amount of cash at the end.  Shorting involves margin and risk, and you get a reward when the underlying asset depreciates.
