Agreed !..although I like Stellar (XLM) better…

Yeah - I do too! Semi-trusted nodes but not as centralized as XRP. But not sure they have the adoption or traction that Ripple has with the banks. Might be a necessary evil in the short term.

Thanks, @cdufour. I see your point. In your opinion, shouldn’t banking integration be a priority as this will provide more visibility, familiarity and seamless access (i.e. reducing cost) to the Cardano network. Mass adoption is usually driven by factors such as simplicity/ease of access and overall cost…
Most probably will be done thru Ripple. No point to integrate Cardano with banks - too much pain in the arse for little gains 
It would be better for everyone to just use Ripple for it - banks get a chain they can control, and Cardano gets almost the same integration.

I think CH and the team realize this so they are incorporating meta data and other features into Cardano. They are making sure they are regulator friendly, which will play well into any discussions with regulators, banks or money transfer firms. Ripple is trying to be the bridge to the banks. That is their business model. The fact that Cardano is being built to talk to all other platforms through sidechains gives them backward and future compatibility - as no one can know how this will unfold. So they don’t have to cater to the banks. Ripple can - and then they can talk to Ripple via a sidechain.

Shoot, I was just wondering if all the traders decided to go to telegram and then leave trading TA and all the possibilities of where its going there.
This has all to do with Ouroborus genesis right?
I think it’s a bunch of different things coming together.
has been consolidating for a while.“Oroborus genesis” is definitely playing a part, positive media coverage, bitcoin getting closer to 10k, overall cripto market turning green, new Binance pairings with ,as well as the influx of fresh cash from Huobi, partnership announcements…Traxia etc…plus simply the technology and the team behind it. IOHK has done an excellent job educating the community, there is so much information on the forum and social media, and YouTube …that any intelligent person doing research on 
can see that it is the most solid project out there. Not to be insensitive but pretty much every other coin when compared to is gonna look like 
I’m wondering how far and fast it will go …wanna take profits at different levels, why let it go to waist right?

I am debating on taking profits… I will wait for the reaction to Monday’s update before selling… crap, it may go another 30-40%…

HODL here. The only selling I’ll be doing is to pay taxes on staking gains.

HODL for sure, what I mean is the price will have to retract eventually and if you sell at the right time and buy back in at the right time, you’ll increase the number of coins you have. All about getting more !

I personally don’t have the confidence or temperament for that strategy. Plus my taxes are complicated enough. With that said it would have to get pretty crazy high for me to start selling the bulk of what I have (between $25 and 100). Going forward I'm viewing my staking rewards as the more liquid part of my Cardano holdings. If prices are high I'll turn it into to pay taxes and pay bills, if not I HODL.
Best of luck to everyone out there though. I’m rooting for everyone. It’s been amazing to watch this all happen. I really feel blessed and grateful.

Experience, patience and knowledge always wins out over the lucky. Hope you enjoyed being right for a month, but I always win in the end. 
Man your really a piece of work. Always right in the end LOL one of the most ignorant incompetent comments I’ve read of yours.

The future is uncertain and the end is always near. Including yours.
Not as a uncertain as you think… Yeah you are who one of these people who are fine with dishing out but cant take anything back… But I understand… Sucks to suck
Not at all mate. The facts you suck have not change. Digging up months old threads to stoke your ego only proves how much you truly suck. Also worth noting back in April you sold too soon but that’s neither here nor there. Enjoy being right all the time. Must be terrific!
Nope, as I’ve already mentioned in this thread Its not about timing the market, but appropriate accumulation strategies taking into account risk/reward - that means that even if you are wrong, you are right, because the downside metrics are pre-calculated risks and already accounted for to be taken advantage of.
Then there are the people who choose luck, and sure, for some that works out great because everything is probabilistic of nature, but repeat the same scenario 100 times, and they will all be REKT - because their risk/reward metrics are skewed.
People should be held accountable with their statements, a month ago is not that long - and your little smart-ass and unnecessary comment, on good methods, isn’t as smart anymore. Timing the markets is a fools errand, you are a great example of that.
Wanted to follow up on this. April 3rd was when I took this screen shot. This is a 4h chart and it held the resistance around .14/.13 area. I was able to buy in close to the bottom. I am starting (but nothing definitive yet) to see this setup occur again, so if I wanted to buy in close to the bottom again, it looks like .15/.14 is the resistance.
