[Sam Odom]

Flying on up!!

Anybody here on BTT? I'm hearing some chatter about it, and it's currently less than .0013.

Justin Sun, one of the leads at TRON, tweeted the following:

Something huge and amazing going about #TRON and #BitTorrent. I will share with you after June 1. I think I have 70% to win and nail it. Fingers crossed! $TRX $BTT

Nice bump with the news too

Wish lite coin hit 8500

Wish lite coin hit 8500

Would like to hear people's projections for BTC/Litecoin ratio? And BTC/BCH ratio?

Like people have said in here, Litecoin lost some exposure when creator bailed on his holdings.

You know the bull market is back when Justin is moving markets with his tweets again.

At least this isnt one is his announcing a fake partnership tweets. Guy might just be a good hype man/faking it until making it, but i definitely get a scammer vibe from him. Refuse to touch Tron.

I get the same vibe from anyone who says "I have an announcement in X days" and his coins rise in price like they have. Makes me think he is a pump-and-dumper.

Even with that being said, I bit off a little bit of the BTT coin and will put a stop soon in case of dumping.

Always a good idea to hold on to the Binance launchpad coins such as BTT.

[QuantumLeap]

Always a good idea to hold on to the Binance launchpad coins such as BTT.

Speaking of which, the Harmony ONE Launchpad lottery ends soon. I haven't found exactly what time the coin will be offered though.

Also speaking of Launchpad coins, I'm hoping this BTT doesn't go up wildly like MATIC did at the end there. Remember the chart you posted and I said it was good that it retraced a bit? Well it crashed after that.

I just want BTT to go up maybe 30%-40% per day for about 10 days. Nothing crazy. I've already locked in a profit so if it drops from here I'm good. I just want to see some more action to the upside.

[pablo222]

Broke 9k for a few minutes.
Back to 8730

[ChuckyTheGoat]

Currently dropping like a fukin rock. Free-fall.

[themike78]

Dam. I bought some earlier today when it was 9000. Now it's down to 8000. I just saw it drop 400 dollars in 1 second. Fuk. Do any of you crypto nerds know what the fuk is going on?

[pablo222]

What is going on?

This is not very much fun.

An asset with no underlying financial valuation more than doubled in under 2 months. It has long been overdue for pullback resistance. I mean cmon, $8000 to $9000 in a week? Every week?

Bitcoin is and has always been propped up by gamblers. Now it is just institutional gamblers creating pump and dumps. With high average tx fees ($2+ per transaction currently), it is not a viable replacement to cash/credit card, its main purpose when created.

I agree with most of this but many people don't want to hear it because they believe there is no limit to how high the price of bitcoin will reach.

Bitcoin boosters are all about self interest. I'm not saying people can't make a score playing the bitcoin game but its just another way of gambling and as an asset bitcoin really has no value. It IS a bubble and will pop one day. Oh and yes I use bitcoin but never HODL. I sell it as fast as I can after receiving it.

[Hman]

Asked this in other thread.

I'm still using Coinbase.

Is there a better & cheaper place to buy and make transactions?

Also thoughts on XRP??

[pablo222]

They say gemini is good.

[eaglesfan371]

Gemini WAS good. They’re a rip-off now. 1.49% fee each way. They used to be 0.25%.

I’m getting setup with Kraken, which has 0.25% fee, but I’m also using wires which will have fixed higher fees involved.

For the average user, 3 figure or smaller purchase, Gemini or coinbase will be your best bet with paper trail.

If you don’t want a paper trail use localbitcoins / bitquick.

Someone referred me to the cashapp a month ago. It's awesome. Buy $500 worth of btc, end up with like 497, no intl fees, instant withdraw to middle man or direct to book (I know I know) with really fast confirmation.

Only drawback is it's just for buying and sending and if you're using debit it cuts into you're daily atm limit.

It is a relatively predictable asset in terms of technicals. It touched 9000 immediately down to 8700. Could not hold 8700 and each time immediately sell off at 8700, touched a few times. It had hard time managing support at 8000. However it consistently was boosted up to 8000 overnight when Asian markets woke up. That led to the spurt to 8800. Now it fell below 8500, broke support and fell harder.

Sure it could go back up tonight as long term it is in a sustained bull trend.

cashapp is decent...anyone else have a Spend Card? I got the preferred card, instant transfer/convert to fiat and you can use it anywhere **** is accepted for 1% flat fee on all purchases but I get 2% cash back, pretty tight

EOS on Coinbase.

Is it 1.49% at Gemini, now? I bought just a month ago, it was still 1%. Oh, I know - they have a new layout at their website and I bet they bumped it up with the new changes. As far as I can tell the new layout is meant to be "user friendly" but it looks like "market only" buying. Easy buying for n00bs but no limit orders. On the day of the changes, I requested to customer support that they allow me to have "Gemini Active Trader" when I log on. You can find it under your My Account settings-->exchange settings. It is sort of the Gemini version of Coinbase Pro. Still 1% there for limit orders - https://gemini.com/activetrader-fee-schedule/#overview

EOS on Coinbase.

Yep. Although a Coinbase listing doesn't seem to have the same clout as it used to.

I'm still very large into EOS - my biggest holding - and they are having some supposedly major announcements tomorrow at an event in Washington DC, June 1. There's much speculation as to what these announcements will be.... A few that know have described it as "mind-blowing" and "never been seen in the crypto space before" but I am definitely not getting my hopes up. The speculations I've seen are nice but I wouldn't call them "mind blowing". We'll see....

Definitely some insider trading going on the last week with EOS.............. Getting listed on Binance normally causes a big pump. I'm waiting on CLO.
