We're almost there.

Hold me OP, it's dropping hard! I got 10K in this.

after this spike is is still smart to buy. My country is going to shit and i want to save this little money i have. Maybe just buy USD or EUR?

The dip is normal. It's Good for Eth. Expect $50 this weekend

*is it ?

Thinking about just cashing out now, im still up. Do you guys think we'll see a massive dip ?

HOLD ON TO YOUR ETH

YES JUST HOLD ON FOR A COUPLE MORE DAYS

>$46
>dip

I'm still up 200%

Glad I didn't sell! we're going up fast!

Does SynapsePay (US Wire) just mean i can link my bank account with kraken like in Robinhood?

Can I start buying $500 worth of eth now on margin before Tier 3 gets verified?

No, it is never smart to buy after a spike.

After a big spike these happen (in order of likelihood):

-Dip (Small drop in price, volume not drastically changing, typically the point to buy on something bullish like ETH is right now)
-Pull-back (Price gracefully falling back to a more reasonable level with no sudden volume change because of profit-taking)
-Drop/sell-off (Dropping price, either rapidly or continually, volume spiking on the chart from a significant sell off from profit-takers)
-Continued bullish price action (rarely happens after a big spike unless some sort of news comes out or some sort of outside event occurs)

That's basically how the currency/equity markets typically work after a spike. I'm bullish on ETH right now, especially after the rejection of the BTC ETF. I believe ETH is a superior crypto-currency to BTC and value from BTC's growth stagnating should increasingly trickle into ETH in the coming months.

Not to mention there will be yet ANOTHER failed ETF at the end of this month. That should spike the price up quite a bit for ETH.

u retards realize its up a lot from yesterday still right?

Yup they call it a bull trap. They get it up high enough so they don't lose too much from the original drop then it goes even lower.

You cant be certain it will fail again.

I bought some ether but somehow it doesn't show up in my wallet. on etherscan.io it says that it should have arrived in my wallet. what went wrong? why are cryptocurrencies so popular if they can just disappear? this is the transaction etherscan.io/tx/0xeda30321d31188589f05fdaf10bd620eaf03878a9956a4917f5efb4d6675f4f5

Nothing to see here goys.

It was removed cause it's a.... gap.

Nothing has changed since the last BTC ETF failed. BTC still can't be regulated. BTC NEVER can be regulated, so there will NEVER be a BTC ETF.

if it's in ehterscan then you're good. Just leave the wallet open and you should see the progress bar with a percentage at the top.

>bought at 16
>new coiners are talking about a dip
Top zozzle

what's an ETF?
The possibility to trade btc at the stock market?

BIZ HELP!

This - you are not fully synced and need to download the whole block chain.

everyone who foolishly sold this ETH dip better buy back in. all signs point to it going to $100 this weekend.

What if we sold at 50 then got back in 45? :^) but yes listen to this user.

JUST

What's the best mining platform?

Seeing a lot of bad reviews for all of them.

Thats what you get for using shitty wallets instead of reputable exchanges

>$1266
JUST

biz

I unironically have no idea what to do. I just want to buy some fucking etherum to sit on

help

Next to advanced, click on cryptowatch and trade.

buy eth and trade if you want. but you seem to be a noob so just buy and HODL

thanks.... but it keeps saying failed and to contact support. what do?

you should buy at market not limit if you want it right away.

in your screencap you're basically placing an order to buy ETH once it hits 500USD for the price of 500USD, which would net you 1 ETH.

I was like "hmm, should I put $1000 into ETH for the hell of it?" when it was below $10 and haven't paid attention since then. Holy shit.

Bought 117 eth at 11-12 for around 1500. Converted my 117 etc into 5 more eth. Sold 30 last night for 1600.
Sitting long on 92 eth and up 100$.

Feels good

i actually just laughed out loud.

>500 w-what?

PLEASE NO BULLY

btw, can i link a bank account to deposit funds?

I wish I had put all of my Bitcoin savings into ETH
Instead I only put half of it in ETH 1 week ago.

it depends what site you're using

>th ETH I ordered was supposed to arrive by the end of today
>day is almost over, still no eth
Am I fucked

if its in the blockchain

its there

kraken

see

what country are you in??

im not sure how kraken works, sorry. but I'm assuming with a wire transfer you're going to be waiting a few days anyway

Burgerstan

In my bank it shows that they already took my money two days ago, which is why I'm worried. This is the first time I'm getting so many ethers at once, so I don't know what to expect.

I'm pretty new to cryptocurrencies, is there a step by step guide on how to get started with it?

In the meantime I'll be drawing gay furry porn so that I have some ill-gained money to burn.

1) Go to coinbase, spend half your money on BTC. It's low right now.
2) Spend the other half of your money on ETH
3) Go to novaexchange.com and turn some of your BTC to MiloCoin and some more into Pivx
4) Profit.

How do I store my ETH best?
Online wallet good?

This, especially PIVX

BUY, DO NOT MISS THIS OPPORTUNITY

I boght 10 ETH quite a while ago and then forgot about it.
Oh well. At least I can buy myself lunch.

if you follow traditional chart patters, ETH looks to experience a decline soon

however, no one is sure if you can apply basic/standard trading practices to crypto

How much would people be willing to pay for a verified kraken/poloniex account?

What even are the benefits of a verified account?

Margin trading, you can put in fiat currency, you can withdraw fiat currency.

Click on "simple" and type in how many ETH you want to buy

im not from europe

and i cant deposit any money till verified ;_;

WHAT THE FUCK DO I DO!?!

child's face, cowtits, fertility goddess hips

Hard not selling on days like this so I am this dip seems eternal

F

That's why you don't bet more than you can lose. You shouldn't have to worry if you lose it all.

what is happening?

fucking agreed m8, I'm trying so hard to not sell this and keeping hopes that it will go back up to 50 at least this weekend? am i foolish for thinking that could happen?

How much would you be willing to pay for a verified account?

$20

Everybody sold at once it hit above $50. They'll by back in when it stops going down, and many people who are waiting to get in are also waiting to see how far it goes down.

No need to worry, this happened last week too.

Thats what i thought. Gonna wait till it hits 45 again then sell and buy again when it dips.
plan?

Up to you user. I'm not very good at predicting dips so I just hold and sit back.

Also, I'm betting that the dip goes all the way down to $35 and then rockets up to $50 then hopefully, levels out so that people don't sell trying to predict dips.

Surf the waves!

how do i buy eth with btc? easiest way possible

What's the best service to trade some of my BTC for ETH?

1. Kraken is dead - no withdraw possible + not verifying Tier 3
2. Poloniex has trouble with depositing Ether and takes 24h+ to reply to support

I hate early adopting..

i'm a neet who only has $40, what's the minimum worth investing in this?

I haven't been able to withdraw from Kraken in 2 days.

At 40$ you might have more luck buying up unknown altcoin for pennies.

I've just withdrawn money there yesterday tho and it arrived on my bank account the same day

waiting for Kraken T3 as well

Would it reach at least 40 euro in the nearest days?

yeah don't.. just use coinbase - they verified within minutes

i think we have to start a $chan which just fucking works and makes it easy to send / receive cash for you shits

wrong thinking - if anything here was sure, we'd take on a credit of 100k and invest the shit out of it

it's impossible to predict, but most likely within the next 3 weeks.

there is still potential, news coming this week - including major negative news for btc and enough buyers waiting for a wave

Looks like we're in this together, mETH heads

indeed. still made enough profit and got plenty of hope to keep my position though

trying to get a nxs hype going meanwhile but people seem to be too stubborn and keep going with the dash meme instead

How much do you actually need to invest to get gains from ETH? I can only invest couple hundred dollars at most.
And also, some user said he knows of a way to buy eth without a bank account, anyone knows that here?

holy fucking shit dude
You will get mad gainz even with 50 bucks
All you need is patience. One year from now your penny will be a dollar, but only if that penny is in ETH

I am in this until we reach the moon, lads, but this 15 dollar dip in two days is scaring me a bit. I really hope this isn't a pump and dump.

You newcoiners need to do some research. ETH is obviously gonna moon even more on the 30th when yet another ETF fails for Bitcoin.

I was unaware of that. I don't have much to lose but I'd hate to see so much gain slip through my fingers. Oh well.

Am I reasonable to believe ETH could hit 200 dollars by year's end?

Detach yourself from the idea of losing money. Ethereum is obviously worth as much as Bitcoin, you just need to enjoy the ride and stop worrying about the dips.

Earn free bitcoin

WHY IS IT GOING DOWN???????

Is it worth to even a buy a few ETH now? I don't have much to spend but am surely willing to join the trip to the moon. What is the minimum amount I'll have to invest Veeky Forums?

The very lowest it will go is $35. It's about to start going up again by then and it will never be sub $40 again. Maybe watch it for awhile, but I would say buy it asap.

>mETH kids didn't dump their stack like the rest of the people who shilled it on Veeky Forums


you got fucked HARD!

babys first dip.

>freebiebitcoin.com
why are you advertising scam?

...

>Am I reasonable to believe ETH could hit 200 dollars by year's end?


you do know that etherium is an Infinite resource?

it means there will be like only 24million bitcoin ever in existence

but ETH has no limit, they will pump the same amount of eth into the market


and economics tells us that demand=Supply

and if the supply is infinite you can imagine the rest
