My hubby @shai-hulud and I only recently got into Crypto too, its how we stumbled across Steemit and we are loving it.
The investments made, have to date, paid off amazingly. We haven't cashed out and wont for a while yet. We are in it for the long haul so my only advice HODL. Trying to be a trader is super anxiety provoking.
Best of luck!
Thanks for your insights and I wish you both the best of luck in your 2018!
