You have to admit, Crypto is not for the faint of heart.

We have lost about $10B of the total market cap again in about a day.

-- You kind of have to laugh a little.

I was selling, selling, selling, aannndddd now I'm buying.

[cali-girl]

Exactly. ;)

[steamitbeta]

hahahah way to go

[barrydutton]

LOL!!

Well played there my friend hahahaha!

[jonas91]

Like my friend told me. This is because of the big BTC meeting, that taking place first of August, and it will decide the future of Bitcoin. this is simply the fall, before the rise. I dont know any big detail, but he said not to worry. Everything is speculative ofc, but he told me that the value of BTC s going to go up to 4000 USD in the end of August. Im going to invest in some coin, and now is the right time. Ofc dont bet everything on one coin

[silver-saver]

Gotta hang tough and buy when red! No worries!

[barrydutton]

On sale!

On sale!

Come and get it !!!

LOL!

[team101]

I guess you just have to know when to "hold 'em". LOL

[barrydutton]

Kenny Rogers would be proud LOL

Well played.

[stan-ivanov]

Scary times! I think the best approach is to keep calm!

[barrydutton]

HODL and keep CLAM

lol

[dinsha]

yes it is highly volatile at the movement.. i am playing the waiting game..

[kuching]

It's almost always highly volatile! Not just at the moment

[cryptokraze]

I am getting irritated now but still waiting for this BTC drama to be over and we can start trading normally. I think exchanges should enable ETH market for most of the coins to avoid this volatility.

[barrydutton]

Good points for sure.

Followed.

red is good for the heart , it means buy

[barrydutton]

Not heard that one yet, I like it hahahaha!

[coinkingz]

not good news, but Steem goes down as well, time to buy some

[barrydutton]

Buy
The
Dips
...............

$Steem

[fraterralph]

Seems discouraging at times. I've simplified my strategy so as I am now only trading Steem and BTC with an eye to increase my holdings in both. But, if I do get caught in a trade where I lose BTC, I just use the extra Steem to further Power Up my Steemit account. That way, even when I lose I can work it out into a win. I'm still learning many of the finer points in trading. I love doing it, but until I learn how to do it more professionally, I take the more conservative approach. :-)

[barrydutton]

You are doing great, being smart, and starting modestly and within your limits, that is great.

And you are also diversified.

[nitinaryan]

ya but market is very down....

[cali-girl]

Doesn't bother me that it's in the red again. I just make sure to invest money that I don't care if I lose.

[lexikon082]

And it's red...lol. If you went onto coinmarket cap and changed the setting from USD to Bitcoin the last week or so...many of the coins were still in red territory. Even though the dollar value of coins went up, because of the rise of BTC... there was still negative BTC volume. Still trying to figure out that relationship in my head.

[barrydutton]

That metric is always interesting. It is the relation of said coin to the BTC price and with the swings in crypto and BTC --- it has been really interesting to watch, it is a fulsome indicator of the market volatility in this sector.

[lexikon082]

Very interesting. Learned something new today. Thanks Barry.

[barrydutton]

I corrected my spelling mistake, I am sure you know I meant BTC.

I am not sure there actually IS an MTC

LOL

[lexikon082]

I was hoping you meant BTC, otherwise, the whole meaning would have been changed and I would be walking around with a new piece of knowledge that people would look at me like I am a complete idiot.

[barrydutton]

I had another good visit in the nursing home with my friend.

I posted on Mothers Day about my last visit there...... I got her some more cool stuff today I made/put together again and I am wearing my Steemit shirt this time!

(:

[lexikon082]

Yes, I remember that post! It's great to visit people in the nursing home. Good JUJU will come back on you when you are older. Hopefully, we will have some awesome youngsters visiting us when we are older. I really hope it's not in the nursing home though. I hope she was digging your shirt.

[steamitbeta]

It is a very stressful summer buddy
:O

[barrydutton]

meh, it depends on your outlook and experience I think.

I'm good

LOL

[clayboyn]

The crypto pogo-stick.

[barrydutton]

I was at the nursing house visiting a friend again today. She told me some of her Louisiana area roadtrip stories, Oh man. LOL

I mentioned to her about you down that way!

[clayboyn]

:) Bring her on down for a visit! LOL I'll get you some jambalaya and gumbo.

[barrydutton]

LOL, I cannot even get her out of the home to go for a walk or food

I posted on a visit to her, and stuff I made for her -- on Mother's Day.

I got her some cool stuff today too!!

[clayboyn]

Awesome. We gotta help those that need it.

[onetin84]

i think much volatility ahead, because of uncertainty with Bitcoin and many upcoming ICO's and already establishing assets. There is so much in the pipeline now. Everywhere new concepts and some big contenders for Bitcoin, which is currently the rock in the waves with deep market penetration.

I used today as an opportunity to add to my crypto portfolio at bargain prices. :)

[barrydutton]

Sale priiiiiiiiicesssss girls!

LOL!!!!

TY for stopping by again Steph

[onetin84]

It is not so bad if you think that all exchanges, escrow services and smart contracts would close or stop today and reopen in.. we say just 10 years from now :). Do we see a rising sea level?
