Some of you have asked..

There have been a number of friends that have asked for links of information about coins and why I have them in my portfolio. I try to find a reason they are out there that would impact people and make a difference. I check to see if there are any big players out there backing these coins or investing in them. Amazon, Credit Card companies, Walmart, Alibaba, FedEx, etc. If I find big companies involved then chances are they have done the research I don't have the funds to do. I then possibly purchase a few coins and hope it turns out for the best and I add a few bucks to the vacation kitty.

I personally use Coinbase to buy Ethereum. I buy this because right now Bitcoin is so congested the times it takes to verify the blockchain are way to long for my limited patience. Once I have the Ethereum I then send my money to an exchange. I use Bittrex, Binance and Gatehub primarily because of the ease of use. I don't want my bank account and credit card information out there everywhere and that is my personal reason to use Coinbase as my entry point. If anyone knows a better way to get dollars into the exchanges with less fees and faster process times, please let me know.

Usually used in the form of “xxx spreading FUD again.” Example: JPMorgan’s Dimon spread FUD by saying Bitcoin is a fraud that will eventually blow up.cryptocurrency lingo spread fud ATH. Short form for “All-Time High”. Therefore it means the highest historical price of a specific coin. Whale. A huge player who has a substantial amount of capital. Whales are often the market movers for small alt-coi...
