80/20, eh?  It used to be stocks were the high risk side of asset allocation. 

Me, I’ve got 3% in emerging markets as my volatile allocation.  Not a gambler, for sure.

to clarify I'm talking mainly EFTs/index funds, not individual stocks

Shiba coin is a longshot but it's super cheap. Buy 10 million for a couple hundred bux. Goes up to a penny thats 100K, 10 cents, a million. Pretty low risk bet for a big payoff. May go nowhere but many of us will spend that much on tires every few months.

It's what happened with Dogecoin, it's a hustle but whatever.... I already paper handed my AMC stock in March. Buy it and forget about it.

this is what I'm doing now - actual investment money is going 80/20 (80 into boring stocks/bonds, 20 into BTC , ETH, BTC) 

but I've started now putting "lotto" money into shitcoins - hey $20 on doge , more fun than 20 on lotto max and you never know - own 20 bucks (original investment, most are worth less now) of 20 different shitcoins

hey guys - not sure if it has been brought up in this thread, but if you have not got dose 1 yet, try the hashtag vhcbc (vaccine hunters canada BC) , as recently as yesterday they were posting a bunch of places where one could get appointments - good luck to you all, this rollout and messaging around it has been the shits

Question for you never Trumper's.

You guys hated him and still do.

Technically, this is his vaccine.

Let me guess.. only for 2 weeks?

Why do sane people have to consistently listen to snowflake conservatives whine about things that they just don't understand?  Like seriously for a year, parrot idiots have been saying "we're ____ weeks into 2 weeks to flatten the curve". Just because you didn't understand what flatten the curve means we all have to listen to this, lol?  It would take less than 5 minutes to just learn rather than continue to be outraged haha

Gonna try one of those Bitcoin atms soon. See how much they cost.

tried a couple - very high fees, this is how I first my a few nuggets a few years back - very high fees (which caused me to switch to coinmama )

So whats the odds he's being truthful about the DOJ investigation and he's basically absolved of wrong doing?

lol - did you watch the video of his interview?

Anyone else riding this ethereum wave? 

Late to the party but I bought two coins a couple weeks ago when they were around 2k$. 

With that and the other alt coins I jumped into I've made twice in the last two weeks what I made at work. Almost 100% return on my total investment in 2 weeks! 

There is of course the fear that at any moment this can all go poof and vanish but I'm trying to silence that voice and keep hodling. I haven't dumped life savings into it. Just enough to be life changing if the crypto fanboy predictors are right in their 10 year predictions. 

Plan is to drop 100-200 bucks off every paycheque from now on into my crypto wallet. 

One question I have which may have been addressed earlier in the thread are the tax implications. Is trading one coin for another in my wallet  considered a capital gain or does that only happen when I cash evetything in back to fiat?

where do you buy your ETH?  I use a Zengo wallet and buy through coin mama, which is great for BTC - but when I bought ETH I lost a bunch in the buy, like 30% , so now that it's up, most the gain is just getting me back to what I paid.  not sure WTF happened

Have you cashed in yet? $72K and counting is pretty good depending when you first bought. Even 2018 prices back when this thread started are looking good, never mind 2012.

I'm buying $100 every 2 weeks for the next 10 years - I'll sell half with BTC hits a million, no other selling

this man is a literal piece of garbage - near as I can tell he has no redeeming qualities.  Having said that, I have no idea if this stuff is true, but he has done himself no favours with his defence (17 year old woman??) and the fact he's let it be known for the past 40 (??) years that he is a piece of human trash
