It was revealed yesterday that Peter Thiel (early Facebook investor and one of the few techie Trump fans) bought millions in bit coin and set it off.
not gonna pretend to have a clue about any of this tbh... the charts look insane. how the can you predict anything about it?
Unless you're the one manipulating the market, you can't.
how far we have come
Dont listen to cuck advice, now sure I wouldn’t advise daytrading it but people are saying the market is going to hit 2-12 trillion this year. I’m going to hold about 10 different coins and try to minimize trading and mostly hold tight.
Did any of you buy verge at the low point? It’s on the move.
Holy ethereum is up 52% in the last week. It's sending gpu prices through the roof again. I just saw one of the worst versions of the GTX 1070 get $600 bids on ebay with an hour left. Damn ether dropped into the $200s or so back in the summer after its first crash and is now north of $1300 a coin.
i... cant understand these
Holy , that 1070 was talking about sold for $1125.

RandomGuy, you gotta see this. $1125 for a GTX 1070 is unreal.

If you had invested that 30k on 10/24 when I gave my advice at $5615.43 a bit coin, it would be worth $77,212.06 today - 157% profit. To be fair, I advised trading, not leaving it alone but the big rise is already gone and probably my original trading advice is the best bet now. It's on a downward swing today (14k) from its recent high (17k on Jan 7).
It went down to $12794 - on news of South Korea cracking down on bit coin
Fascinating. I might buy something older and put mine up for sale. I will happily play games slightly slower for a year or two if I can pocket a tidy profit.
Gaming slightly slower? When this mini bubble is over and ether starts goes back to a steadier rise (like we saw from June through the new year) the GTX 1080 Ti will probably drop to $850 or so new, and it's 67% faster than the 1070. You could buy one today for $1200, though I wouldn't.

You could buy a 1080 today for $850 that's about 22% faster than the 1070. Though I wouldn't pay $850 for a 1080 either. I imagine they'll drop to $550 to $600 within a month (my brother got two on Tuesday at the start of this run on gpus for $600 each).

I don't know if you'd get $1125 today for the 1070 since ether has dropped to $1223 currently when it was around $1300 most of yesterday. I haven't seen what 1070 are selling for today on ebay. It sounds weird but the 1070 is one of the ultimate mining cards because it's really powerful but with a very low power draw. The more powerful 1080 doesn't mine as well because it uses a different type of memory (actually faster memory too) and the 1080 Ti consumes about twice as much power as the 1070. Of course the best mining card for the money is the $3000 an V that Nvidia released a couple of weeks ago, but those are long since sold out.
Also you probably don't want to buy a slower gpu. The RX 580 that is a big step down from your 1070 sells for $600 right now. The GTX 1060 6GB which is also a big step down sells for $400 right now. Though you could get a GTX 1060 3GB for $230 today. Those aren't in demand at all for mining because they only have 3GB of memory. It's enough to play 1080p 60 fps today but it's a big step down from the 1070 for gaming.

In case you guys weren't paying attention, today would have been a good day to buy bit coin.
Im looking at XRP over bitcoin for the long term because of the ripple network. Maybe drop a few thousand in it for fun. Any thoughts from the techies out there?
nobody knows if today is the bottom of the crash
bou, if you wait for the bottom (whether stocks or bitcoin), you're gonna wait forever and never invest. You don't have to buy at the very bottom or sell at the very top. You buy when low (which $10+k is [very]) and sell when it's reasonably high (meaning not wait until $18-19k, but over $15k or whatever makes you happy). Take your profit and wait for the next drop.
i don't know much about bitcoin tbh. wish i did back 6 yrs ago or so. i should just watch a video on it. any of you invest in BC?
Sounds like RMT's hubby made a bundle on it.
seems like quite a few have made a bundle including wikileaks... i heard about bitcoin in the beginning and it still seems as foreign to me as it did back then. too bad i never researched it back then. oh well, i'm not much of a stocks kind of guy anyhow. glad for those who have made out like bandits though.
... and it drops to $5K. Purely speculative investing, if you've to the funds to lose.
