"Is that it, is the bottom really in?" I can identify. šŸ˜†

And I agree, if you're willing to hold long term in case you're wrong, these are good prices (I would say VERY good). With BTS and STEEM, I don't think it's a question of if, but only when. IMVHO, both are long term 100x candidates, minimum - again, long term - and probably much much more when thinking in terms of a 5-10-15-20 year time horizon.

Nice to see you over here in crypto. I did my fair share of miners years ago, and it's nice to hear your comparison. Brought back memories. Anyhow, welcome, and I hope your "stay" is as rewarding as it will be fun. Followed you, so you can count on me popping in to say hello from time to time. šŸ˜‰

Thanks for your comments! I agree that it will be a question of when. I haven't given up on Au, Ag or miners but they have taught me lessons I'll never forget. That's why I'm trying to be careful. Years of 2008-2011 were really nice indeed, years of 2011-2015 were a real learning experience. Ever since early 2016 the feeling of slow resurrection has been on. We'll see what happens...

I can see a lot of same kind of volatility in Cryptos that I have experienced with precious metals. It helps dealing with corrections which BTS, for example, has faced lately. BitGold and BitSilver are very interesting markets to time on the DEX as well.

The DEX is a phenomenal idea. Needs volume, but it'll get there, slowly but surely. Nice difference in commissions between crypto trading and stock trading too (regardless of exchange). But what I like best about crypto is having the wind at your back - this is a long term bull market in its infancy! Even if you get caught with your pants down, the size and scope of this bull will be ever forgiving, if, and this is a big, very key "if", you pick good ones to work with. I'm playing with a very limited list for now: BTC, LTC, BTS, STEEM, SYS, PIVX, and then for the real longshots, I don't feel too uncomfortable with GRS, XMG, NLG and maybe a little DGB at lower prices. Nevertheless, BTS and STEEM are my unreserved favorites. Check 'um out and let me know what you think.

Everything you said, is awesome. Upvoted!

Great to hear that! šŸ˜

I'll check these out and get back to this conversation. Now it's sleeping time at my location!

Yep, it's a challenge to pick good ones to work with. Having so many coins/digital assets around does not really help. Me too needed to limit my playground to keep my acts together. My list mainly includes BTS, STEEM, BTC and early adopted Monero. Smaller pieces in few other coins. I'm following MUSE too although information is limited and its future seems a bit unclear. All in all, BTS have been the number one for some time and long may it continue!

I checked GRS, XMG and NLG and found NLG the most interesting at this point. Too bad that it's not possible to trade them at Kraken or Polo where I have accounts as well.

It's surely a great feeling having the wind at your back! That reminds me of years 2009-2011 when Ag and Au had the wind at their sails. I still think that PMs can continue with next leg of bull market along with Cryptos, at the same time.

BTW, as a prog fan I dare to share this link about the wind at ones back:
