"Add To Your Winners"

avatar

The whole crypto market capitalization is currently $46 billion over $1.5 trillion and I'd say this bull market is still in full swing. Many altcoins have entered price discovery mode after claiming back their previous ATHs and there's plenty of room to the upside. Uncharted territory waiting to be conquered.

There's good news regarding the crypto space almost every day and I have covered some important ones in a post about a day ago. Now, can you believe that less than one year ago the total market capitalization for crypto was 10x lower than it currently is? Strong hands will make a lot of money during this bull market, and wise hands will do even more...

I'm not too wise when it comes to investing, I admit that, I often take action based on emotions and quite stubborn and blindfolded in many cases. One example is the XRB bull I had on Poloniex for a couple of months. The bull is a sort of a 3x long that Poloniex offers for its noobs that are not leverage trading on Binance.

It's not really a 3x as they claim, because the XRP bull is currently $2.33 and the shitcoin is actually $0.6 on the open market. That's not 3X. I'd say their metrics don't involve any X and it's probably FOMO, FUD and volume that they take in consideration when making the price for this bull. Or... it's something way above my understanding, so lets move.

The math is simple. I bought 192 XRP bull for $430 and sold them for $470 yesterday. $40 profit... It could have been double the money invested if I'd profit on the hype a few weeks ago when the pump and dump for XRP occurred, but I was too greedy. I haven't simply parked into USDT, because it's not the time yet. I actually bought around 90 XTZ and added to some I had on my main wallet.

Why?

Simple: XTZ has way better fundamentals than XRP does, XTZ pays you interest on your locked tokens, XTZ often times follows LINK in price action and if XTZ gets to at least $30 as LINK currently is, in ust a few months, I'll have a nice ROI on that considering that most of the tokens I own have been bought lower than currently is and I'd say it won't stop there.

XTZ has just broke past its previous ATHs and it's in price discovery mode, being a quite hyped cryptocurrency in this space and it is supposed to be launching a stablecoin on its blockchain involving some burning so it's all good. Bullish, right?

I'd say we're just starting climbing the mountain towards the peak for some cryptos in here and if you have a look at the charts you'll see that in 2017 not much happened till like April-May and the exponential growth really occurred in December-January. I know, there's no guarantee this bull market will replicate the past one, but what would it make it weaker...

Nothing will imo, and I really feel like this one will be unbelievable. In 2017 we just had ETH and tons of ICOs and there have been so many shitcoins scoring 50x-100x. Now fundamentals have gotten way stronger. If we'd consider $1 a bottom price for XTZ and a 100x for it this bull market, then $100 per coin will put a big smile on my face, I tell you that. Add a $300 UNI, $10 per HIVE and $10 LEO and I might leave the country for a better warm one.

The idea is that sometimes you have to acknowledge your mistake, take the loss or just a small profit and move on. Add to your winners and do that while the game is not yet heated up. Maybe that XRP bull will go through the roof, I don't care now though, or maybe not, but it's not worth the risk. The discounts we currently have in cryptos will not be here forever. Hence action is required.

2021 is gonna be the abundance year in crypto and it would be a pity to waste it. I know, some trades can get one emotional and that some charts can be deceiving, but having a cold shower and pushing the sell button with no regrets can wipe out some really painful future ones. I also have the piece of mind knowing that my coins are on my laptop's wallet and not on some exchange like Justin Sun's Poloniex. That XRP bull wasn't even a coin, it was a bet...

Thanks for attention,
Adrian

This goes the same with me, sometimes I mostly just buy sentimentally or buy because I feel it's promising or based on some half truth of some sort. But I must say it's not worked out too badly for me as I'm also careful at the same time.

Thanks for the reminder on XTZ, it's one I have my eyes on but forget to pull the trigger usually.

Add a $300 UNI, $10 per HIVE and $10 LEO and I might leave the country for a better warm one.

Oh man if that could happen... would definitely change my life too :)

That’s very true. We’re going to experience the healthy rise coming from project blank and DeFi first.
Then will come the FOMO. Damn that should bring it quite high :)
