Direboarder 21 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 Hello XRP Echo Chamber, I exchanged all my XRP for BTC when it was plummeting in early 2018. While I still have lost money on paper, I've lost not nearly as much. This year I've rebought all my XRP position at around .29 but second guessing that decision. There are so many undeniable red flags regarding XRP that I will be shocked if it rises to the top in the long run. Only time will tell who is right and who is wrong.

Now why on earth would you buy BACK into something AFTER you've discovered the "many undeniable red flags"? Ripple-Stiltskin, Overlord, Johno and 1 other 4 Link to post Share on other sites

We don’t want to look stupid, do we?🙄 I know where you are aiming with those "after 3-4 months" in last 4 months I made very little posts because I did not want to be provoked by...i will not say what not to provoke (i actually didnt sign in for at least 2 months on purpose, but I was reading un-logged-in) I will again like before refrain my self to log in into this forum for 3 months, but I will keep reading it almost daily "unloggedin", hey I still have nice amount of XRP. I just think now I am better off with larger portion of something else, I will sign in earlier only if i see someone deleted this thread. I know what you wanted to say, i know you pointed out everyone could 4 months later made a story what decision he made 3-4 months ago to "not make him look stupid". YOU MADE A VALID SENTENCE i dig. This topic is in price speculation area, so I hope I am allowed to talk openly. We have our own opinion, I think at the moment I am better like I said. I might end up losing more then you in %. I will see what happens. LetHerRip and Plikk 2 Link to post Share on other sites

When Utility starts I want to be part of that with my investment. If it never starts, the money is gone and I can handle it. Nevertheless, I respect your decision much more than those who constantly complain and still do not sell. You behaved mature and rational unlike the majority of people who are extremely annoying and getting worse and worse with time instead of investing in something else.All the best! I second that. In one of his most recent videos, Alessio Rastani asks analyst Zak Mir if BTC is going to 100K in one year from now. His analysis is interesting and to me a case for XRP.

2ndtimearound 6,969 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 It's interesting how people are on this forum (though this works for any asset really)....basically it goes like this for the majority of people:- if the asset you hold goes up, then you say how smart you are and you take full responsibility for your actions if the asset you hold goes down, you disappear OR you complain and blame other people / institutions for your predicament It's funny how personal responsibility works here!

ripplewaytogo 891 Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 (edited) I am not sure what to believe at the moment. I am going to give it till the end of next year. If the prices has not reached $0.81 AUD by then I am selling my entire holdings. This is actually suggested by my husband who says we should be able to claim it on investment loses as we are planning to selling one of our investment properties next year. Loses on XRP can offset the Capital Gain attracted when selling the IP as both are capital event happening at the same year. However if the price of XRP does pass the $0.81 I will have CG on XRP also. The way XRP is going I am not confident it will even hit $0.60 AUD or not by the end of next year. All I can say is fingers crossed and good luck to all the holders Edited September 1, 2019 by ripplewaytogo Link to post Share on other sites
