Bitcoin -Bitcoin Summary

Ethereum -
Ethereum for Everyone
Beginner's Guide to ETH


Where do I go if I want to get in on this???

The only ways to buy bitcoin/ethereum with your dollars are through these things called exchanges.

Examples of exchanges:

(Dollars -> BTC/ETH)

Coinbase- most newb friendly/high fees. You can buy Bitcoins and Ethereum here with your dollars.

~~~RECOMMENDED EXCHANGES (for US brahs)~~~

GDAX- owned by Coinbase. Lower fees. Cons - requires a SSN which not everyone is comfortable with

Gemini- low fees, nice interface. Cons - Takes time to get verified so you can make deposits

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Canadian brahs use
QuadrigaCX

from these above exchanges, you can take your dollars and convert them to Ethereum or Bitcoins. Now..you could just hold these coins and be happy, or you could explore into the world of alt coins.

Australian brahs use these to put FIAT into crypto
www.coinspot.com.au(you pay a premium but you also sell at a premium on this exchange so it’s ok)

Binance

KuCoin

Bittrex

Great, I've got my coins now. HOW DO I KEEP MYSELF SECURE???

General security tips

Also consider getting a Nano Ledger/off-exchange wallet

[General investing tips]

1) Don't have more than 5-10% of your entire investment portfolio in crypto, and only invest what you can afford to have locked in for the long term.

2) Don't chase a pump

Never buy on rapid upswing on the candlestick chart if you're not sure why it happened and can't figure it out. The reason is likely that it is a Pnd. PnD is "Pump and dump" and it refers to a trading scam where people organize to coordinate the laddered purchase of an asset, then wait for others to come in at some delay and further increase the price before coordinating the unloading of their position once a specific price target is reached. This is illegal in the stock markets, but since cryptomarkets are unregulated such schemes are rampant. There are many PnD groups and today they are largely organized on Discord channels. They are now structured into tiers where the top tiers get a signal earlier than the bottom tiers and usually by the time the bottom tiers get the signal its too late, so unless you pay money to part of the top tier or have a connection with the admins its not even profitable. They are bad for the market as a whole and they prey on those who are looking for short term moons to latch onto. Don't look for things that you think will moon today, look for investments.

3) Holding will give you more returns over a year than day trading.

You will find that most people who made six figures or more in crypto did it by holding over the long term, very few get rich by day trading. That said you should definitely learn a few indicators to see if you're getting in at a reasonable entry point. I find that the MACD (moving average convergence divergence), RSI (relative strength index), market depth and support-resistance lines are the most useful indicators for crypto. MACD is useful for looking at where the long term price should be in divergence to the short term movement, RSI gives you an 0-1 rating of how overbought/oversold it is and support-resistance lines gives you a floor and ceiling for how high it will move in your buying period. If you do short term trading, do it when you have high certainty that a specific news will lead to an increase. Some of these specific events are: upcoming roadmap item releases, fork airdrops, exchange additions and partnerships. Short term buys like this are smart moves based on some underlying value assumption being changed, trading purely on volume and patterns is generally akin to gambling on markets that are as inefficient as most cryptoassets.

4) Take your time and research what you are putting your money into.

I cannot stress this enough, you are buying an asset with your hard earned money, and it should have some utility. Start by reading the whitepaper that is on the main site for the coin. You can avoid a lot of scams by simply critically evaluating the question: "Why does this coin exist?" Is it simply trying to apply a blockchain to something that doesn't need it or is there a transactional inefficiency/problem that the unique properties of the blockchain can solve? Ask yourself what value the actual token would have in the ecosystem its part of. Does it pay out some kind of dividend like some coins, or is its value in that its used as part of transaction fees and is thus being burned? You can make a simple checklist for every crypto and just answer these questions to yourself for each coin you look at:

What is the problem or transactional inefficiency the coin is trying to solve?

What is the Dev Team like? What is their track record? How are they funded, organized?

Who is their competition and how big is the market they're targeting? What is the roadmap they created?

How will they attract their target market, how is their marketing?

How does the coin derive its value? Is there some sort of dividend structure, profit sharing plan, or is it a store of value within a digital economy? What is the float schedule like going forward (ie. how many coins will be released or burned)?

5) Learn to recognize FOMO when it arises within you

If you ever feel this itch to get in on an rapid upswing because you don't want to miss out on some new development that is causing it, stop yourself from knee jerk reacting to this feeling. This is called FOMO: "Fear of missing out" and its what drives the market now. It happens to everyone and it leads to emotional investing and knee jerk buying/selling.


6)Accept that you will miss out on a lot of moon missions, and that's perfectly okay

Right now the crypto market is like a giant dumb money party filled with coked up headless chickens running around throwing money at every ****coin with a low nominal price hoping it goes to $10,000 like Bitcoin. Everyone is a genius in a bull market, and this creates a feedback loop of more money come in. You will miss out on these gains, but don't let that get to you. By taking your time to make your decisions you end up focusing on the fundamentals rather than short term movements.

7)Think of not only individual position, but how they fit in your portfolio and your diversification

Your risk tolerance should dictate how much you allocate between your Core holdings (which are generally considered more "safe" since Bitcoin and Ethereum will be around for a long time) and the various segments. I personally am okay with a 30% core holdings, 70% across various other segments. However 60/40 splits between core and other segments is probably a good starting point for most newbies. You can make visualizations in excel with pie charts and keep tabs on your segment allocation.

Last time I'll shill it here for you *******s. I go around learning all the degen stuff so you can make profits and get called out by you *******s as scamming people. I've been using Pionex and it's become my favorite exchange so far. Has the best selection of coins including things you can't get on Binance or in the US. Also has built in trade bots. I've been playing around with different coins and parameters and been getting consistent 1-3% returns daily. Thats $100-300/day passive of 10k investment which compounds over time.

As stable as stellar

In on legendary bull run

I'm a value, dividend growth, index fund boomercel, but I've sunk some money into $ETH. I guess I'm officially in on the party & am loving it so far. Only put like $8K and chit's already up 25%+

Let's see what the rest of 2021 brings for us brahs

If I end up on the second page I'll be very disappointed.


Ethereum is going to go parabolic during the lifespan of this thread before we make a XV one.

ye im riding DOT and ETH to the moon for the next 5 years. Then coins like ANKR when they pop up

if you're not in mrph rn you're going to miss out!

lol so funny seeing the narrative shifts in the crypto scene from ETH dying to literally how it's going to pump to the moon afterwards

now ADA is seen as the stable coin when before it was hyped hard af. q3 will be when ADA shines the most, will come back and quote this.

low market cap
worth looking into with more events opening up from lockdown
