    Percentage is what I am struggling with. I almost feel its important to buy a high quantity while its low with NEO/ADA/EOS. In the event one of those make it big, I sit pretty well. I feel many of the currency coins are too redundant and risky going head to head with BTC.

    Haha my bad! I just see Long and Fan. My mind fills in the rest.

    I wanted to clarify in that I don't dislike Monero. Its a great coin. I feel its privacy issue will make it a more difficult for dumb money to buy into. Do you buy into coins that are easily accessible like those in coinbase or do you buy into coins that are more practical long term?

    I also wonder if trading privacy coins will raise flags for audits.

    I'll look up tomorrow, but think like 70% of my alt money is in ADA and NEO. ADA is by far my biggest alt investment, but everyone has a different favorite because of personal believes.

    I don't know if it's been mentioned before, but for those of you trying to do taxes or track all your coins across multiple exchanges right before you bankrupt ;) :

    For the "average joe" it seems a bit expensive, but I'll let you guys decide for yourselves whether it's worth it or not.

    No Bitmex and Binance it seems, they should really work on adding them.
    Definitely a cool service though.

    Okay, I need to get some ADA.

    Problem is that I need more money to be able to invest like I'd want.

    In short:

    Download something called Binance.

    Buy 5000 ADA for roughly $1000 USD.

    HODL for 3 years.

    By 2021 we all own Bentleys and Bidets and some 14 year old Korean girl will be the world's richest person with a Crypto Kitten portfolio valued at $7 Bajillion.

    What do you guys expect from ADA?

    Yes, I know...impossible to predict and invest what you can afford to lose.

    But, nobody would invest if they didnt have some idea of where it can go...so whats your idea?

    If there are no hiccups and based on the number of coins they have out there I am guessing between 1.00 to 1.50 3rd quarter of next year.

    Just a guess of course.

    I should've bought even more ADA dang, already 12.5x in USD since I bought in.
