jake, any word on exit point on bitcoin? I know you follow this shit rather closely....

this "resistance" talk has piqued my interest and has me concerned enough to ask....

can't speak for anyone else but I'm holding for awhile...

I have a feeling 2018 is going to be a big year for Bitcoin and many other cryptos...

no worries, many others in this thread know far more than I do...all 3 available at coinbase(bitcoin, ethereum and Litecoin) are way up so you are probably looking pretty good on your initial investment...

It's true, I've already rode that roller coaster a few times. As far as times these days with the surge in activity, I honestly don't know. I will say that I just transferred some BTC from Gdax to Binance and purchased some ADA and it took about 30min from start to finish. Gdax to the other exchanges I've learned is usually the quickest. I learned that from lots of trial and error and Shocka also helped me out a bunch. But again in your case, you should be fine as far as getting the actual price that you locked in on.

Alright boys. I'm ready to dabble into the alt coin world. I've only got ETH in coinbase. How do I get these other gems? I want to hold onto the ETH I have, but I can buy whatever to transfer.

Buy litecoin and send it to bittrex. Then you can sell it and buy whatever you want.

Waiting to get verified at bittrex. I only have ETH on coinbase, can I send that? Don't want to have to wait a week or whatever for Litecoin or Bitcoin.

I'll be happy to see it hit a buck today! Fingers are crossed!

Litecoin will be the fastest way to send it. Bitcoin and Ether are both much slower right now. Bittrex usually verifies within 24 hours.

24 hours is still faster than buying Litecoin on coinbase and not actually having it in my account for 7 days. I decided to not be a child and watched a youtube video to show me how to transfer. Going to buy $500 in ETH and transfer $500 I currently have into Bittrex.

**funnyb25** · 12-14-17, 10:45 AM

The Bitcoin and Ethereum networks are currently experiencing record high traffic, resulting in higher miners fees and longer confirmation times for transactions.

Use GDAX, Coinbase's exchange. Login is the same, user friendly. Transfer ETH to GDAX, exchange for litecoin, send to Bittrex. Market order, fee is small. Limit order, no fee. No transfer fee from GDAX to whatever exchange.

Awesome. Thanks. I'll do this. Gonna have to wait til tonight because I have to take a selfie?!?! and my work PC doesn't have a webcam.

**funnyb25** · 12-14-17, 10:54 AM

Blockchain gave me this big pop up that they are now offering send, receive, exchange via Bitcoin Cash. No clue what that means, but I am sure most of you do though...lol

Buying. We'll see a dip before another surge. Not sure if it'll be more than 10% but will definitely have a 6 in front of it

**Crusherrr** · 12-14-17, 11:28 AM

I'm a happy guy after buying 20,000 RIPPLE at 29c the other day.

congrats... idk what it is with ripple, Im just not a fan. glad you guys are making money on it though.

**shocka1212** · 12-14-17, 11:39 AM

has anyone else binance account just given them a plethora of alt coins they didn't buy? (tron, verge, bcx). tiny amounts, but flooding my portfolio page.

I'm not a fan either. It's like the banker's crypto. That being said I do own some. I figured if the bankers like it then it'll probably do well.

I'm not on binance but that site sounds like a nightmare. Is your IOTA still frozen?

**teecee** · 12-14-17, 11:43 AM

Let me guess, bitcoin is up to 25,000 and there's a perfectly logical explanation for it's meteoric rise.

Why the hell did they support Bitcoin Cash before Litecoin? Before supporting Segwit?

Question

If a trade is open like pending, will it eventully go through for the price i bought at? I used btc at binance

Are you talking about a purchase on Coinbase or a trade on an exchange like GDAX? If it's a purchase on Coinbase, it's locked in. If it's an exchange, it's open until a seller is willing to take your order and fill it at that price.

**PaperTrail07** · 12-14-17, 12:03 PM

Yes....they were airdrops and forks of other coins
