Except it is correct? You made the claim, with no substance , that it was 'Hard' to sell/

You can literally sell the price of a Tesla in Bitcoin in seconds and withdrawal to your bank the next day.

Lots of exchanges have Visa and MC's attached to them as well so you can sell and withdraw as cash/buy at a store

Why do you think it is 'Hard' to sell Bitcoins? Hell, even my locally run corner convenience store has a Bitcoin ATM (These take outrageous fees - Do Not Use)

HITI earnings after close today and earnings call tomorrow

Going to be interesting to see if this one starts moving, with earnings expected to exceed targets by a fair margin

Someone asked for advice and you gave them misinformation...claims and no substance was your post actually.

I sold ETH at 1AM last Tuesday night and it took me 30 seconds. It is in fact not hard to sell coins these days. My bank has hours and downtime...bitfinex doesn't.

I apologize for hurting feelings but while we can debate the merits of Crypto perpetuating myths about it aren't helpful to anyone looking to invest.

Kevin O'leary just put 3% of his portfolio into BTC and ETH for what its worth

Not to comment on crypto, but I'm not sure doing what Kevin O'leary does is necessarily a strategy for success...

Point is more whales buying...3% of his portfolio is a massive amount of money. He does have a lot of followers too.

I just FOMO'd a few hundred dollars in play money into this upon reading your post, with zero follow up reading or research.

Is Kevin O'Leary known for making bad moves or something? I don't really follow him, but thought he was one of the better investors out there?

Anybody own KORE mining before their split?

It's kind of confusing about the 1/2 amount of Karus Gold shares worth $0 and the 1/4 amount of Karus Gold warrants, also worth $0... expiring March 15.

Have to warn you though lots of people will be butt hurt when you make money.

IMO ADA is the best buy right now...BTC at 100k is only 2x, ADA should 8x at least

This is why you get so much flack - just moronic.

No one begrudges others making money. The fact that some people aren't full-on fan boys like you, does not mean they are rooting against others' success.

But you do you.

Can we keep the Crypto talk in the Crypto thread?

I'm getting flashbacks of all my BTC and ETH disappearing on that BS QuadrigaCX scam.

I am not aware of withdrawal without the risk of massive fraud ie. Quadriga and loss of money, I also was not aware of being able to withdrawal to credit cards without massive fees and limitations.

I'm also curious about your statement "You can literally sell the price of a Tesla in Bitcoin in seconds and withdrawal to your bank the next day." because the Canadian government restricts transactions of 10k, historically I have seen transaction times of 5-business days on these type of transactions about exchanges.

Maybe I am wrong, and I'd be really interested in knowing how they did as the risk has kept me holding onto cryptocurrency that I would like to divest.

As for the post is right, right about what? that they weren't interested in a meaningful conversation and just wanted to attack a fellow forum user?

MJK · 03-01-2021, 02:04 PM

Well I’ll call that a good day!

I have withdrawn more than 10k multiple times so again I'm not sure where this info is coming from. Use a better exchange? I didn't attack you I attached the information that was wrong.

Turning your investment into a depreciating asset is definitely cashing out.

The rise of bitcoin is largely due to people who have it cheering on it's rise.
If enough people were to sell out, they'd no longer care about it going up and therefore it wouldn't.

Now I have no idea if enough people will buy Tesla's with Bitcoin for that to be a concern, but it's certainly not transferring.

No they would be transferring their BTC from their BTC account into Tesla's BTC account. It wouldn't be cashed unless Tesla cashed it out.

Report to be released sometime tonight, earnings call best I can tell is 8:30 est tomorrow morning

I’m only in this one with a bit of fun money too (local company bias lol) but today’s 20% increase got me back to the green on where I bought in. Hoping to start seeing some steady increaes

jayswin · 03-01-2021, 02:43 PM

Do you have a limit sell on it? I was thinking of placing one, but then thought I'll just actively manage tomorrow morning and maybe place one a bit later, as I'm doing this blind anyways, lol.

His initial business sale was a borderline con job. He made billions on it, but also got sued for misleading investors. Nearly destroyed Mattel. Years ago my broker got me into some of his funds, which I had for a good 5 years, they never did anything(I may have even lost some, don't recall). It wasn't what I'd call brilliant performance, anyway. Then his failed leadership drive. So I don't really consider him someone who's moves I should follow. Not to comment on crypto in this, just in general.

Assuming this was for me right? If so I’m thinking the same thing
