Am I the only one that thinks ethereum will pass bitcoin

**raiders72001** · 08-23-17, 08:24 PM

Hoping to time it right, buying Ripple now.

**Demonata** · 08-23-17, 08:35 PM

Im tempted to buy like 1k ripple. Even if it only goes up like $100 still worth shit ton of money

I transfer BTC to both Bittrex and Poloniex, then trade BTC for Ripple.

Waiting to see what happens now, next piece of segwit just took place. Watch the charts.

I'll be watching for fees and tx speed to get back to somewhere near reasonable.

If that doesnt happen not sure I would keep holding btc personally.

What did you buy your XRP at Raiders?
I don't think ETH will pass BTC. However I consider the true price of BTC to be BTC + any other coins created from a fork. So the true price of one bitcoin is BTC + BCH. I don't really think ETH will pass BTC without the fork coins either though.
I do think IOTA could do it. It might look like a long shot but IOTA isn't just another "new and improved" blockchain. It uses Tangle which has massive potential.
The next year should be fascinating for crypto...

Yea between now and I think it's around November blocks if things don't change it will be bad for them.

That big announcement hype just triggered a red wedding on the charts for selloff.

Everyone thought this would be the day they announced a big move but it was to say they paid money to a retired banker Bernanke to speak at the conference.

You're not alone. I just couldn't bring myself to stay in it the other day until it all levels out as to is it real news or just a big PR stunt.

On a better note, IOTA looks like it will get on the Binance exchange soon and maybe others. Positives there.

**TheSideBet** · 08-24-17, 02:00 PM

BCH taking a hit today.

**ace7550** · 08-24-17, 07:34 PM

Rebought XRP at .219

Do u think BtC eclipses $5000 anytime soon?

**ace7550** · 08-24-17, 07:46 PM

Most likely yes.

Hoping it makes two exchanges before September is out.

Keep an eye on Nem (XEM) in the following two weeks. Just loaded up on it tonight.

Any idea on what is Hshare (hcash)? From nowhere suddenly is the 12th largest coin by market cap.

Here's the site: https://h.cash/
Here's trading info: https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/hshare/
Looks like it has only been traded for a week.
How can it be #12 and have a 1 billion dollar market cap after a week of existence? Because it's the wild world of crypto

**RoyBacon** · 08-28-17, 12:24 PM

IOTA taking a snooze.

from reddit

Let me quickly explain how this happened.
Hcash started as a small coin and was trading around 20$ with a very low marketcap (>20mill). Then, they gave everyone who was holding any Hcash 500x their balance. More coins in circulation = higher marketcap.
IOTA did the same thing and people still followed it. Why wouldn't Hcash?

There are literally tons of spelling and basic communication errors on the front page of their site, not even to mention to mention the white paper. It seems like others have said, its similar to Lisk, but exponentially more risky/less sound.

They will be stuck in .80's to .94 range until they get on more than just the one probable exchange coming and work out some bugs in their product. They aren't built like normal coins so it's a grind for them right now. Better in long run though.

**raiders72001** · 08-28-17, 02:36 PM

Just sold NEO, IOTA and OMG. It could be a big mistake. The volume is down. Maybe it's for Ghost Month, who knows.

All three are up in the last hour. It's not a recommendation. It's just a personal trade to avoid a huge loss.
