    MAN ACCIDENTALLY THREW BITCOIN WORTH $108 MILLION IN THE TRASH, SAYS THERE’S 'NO POINT CRYING ABOUT IT’
    Man Accidentally Threw Bitcoin Worth $108 Million in the Trash, Says There?s 'No Point Crying About It?

    "...

    James Howells, 32, made headlines in 2013 after it emerged he had accidentally thrown away a computer hard drive containing 7,500 bitcoins, worth around $4 million at the time. The hard drive now sits buried beneath trash in a landfill site near his home in Newport, Wales.

    They also have what they call a bounty program, which is basically a referral program. If you want to check them out, please use my link: https://alloycoin.com/bh/1px0gvB7TcQlp9cI

    Got the miner optimized and made another 4 coins last night. Up to 6 and should be able to average at least 4 a day now. Maybe less on the weekends if I'm spending more time on the computer doing homework and whatnot (like browsing tsptalk threads!).

    Ya I'm keeping up on it. Texas issued a Cease & Desist letter that now blocks the state's citizens from using the platform. It's always been kind a hot topic because of its pyramid type referral program. A lot of people think it's a Ponzi scheme, too. It's been going well for almost two years now so I'm not so sure. I'm waiting for this bitconnectx reveal on Jan 10. If I like what I see there, I'll probably stick around. If not, I'll start moving my profits out instead of reinvesting them.

    Guys, read up on LEND coin (ERTHLend) This has the potential to change the way people borrow money to trade cryptos! I am quite positive it is going to be huge. I went all in on it yesterday.
    It is .44 at the time of this writing. Im holding a position until it reaches at least $3.00 And I am quite sure that wont be long. I read the white paper on it and it is brilliant!

    Not much out there on it. On their website I see, "TOKEN SALE OVER".

    Any links to read up on it? Thanks

    Meet CryptoKitties, the $100,000 digital beanie babies epitomizing the cryptocurrency mania
    https://www.cnbc.com/2017/12/06/meet...-for-100k.html

    • Players have spent the equivalent of $6.7 million and counting buying CryptoKitties, which can sell for as much as $114,481.59, according to third-party research from developer Niel de la Rouviere.
    • The ethereum-based kitten trading and breeding game clogged the digital currency's network this week, delaying at least one token sale and forcing CryptoKitties to raise its fees.
    • "From a high level, abstract point of view, this stuff is almost digital artwork, if you will. It doesn't have any inherent value other than what you think it's worth," said Joey Krug, co-chief investment officer at Pantera Capital, one of the earliest investors in bitcoin.

    Just got a mining contract with Crypterra. Pretty incredible rates there compared to the rest of the cloud miners. They only accept btc and ltc for payment options though so it's not as easy for someone to get into if they aren't already in crypto currency. I got 2 years of 1.5 TH/s bitcoin mining for $192, paid in litecoin. Should be able to mine over $2K worth of bitcoin over the life of the contract. Doesn't get a whole lot better than that.

    Over 30 coins now. I think they can get to the $10 range shortly after being listed on an exchange. Here's a neat video I just found on how to get started mining them, if anyone is interested:

    Bought Cardano (ADA) last night at 4033 satoshis ($0.36), and we are around 4500 satoshis right now ($0.40). This is one of my favorite coins so I don't know yet if I will be taking profits after a bigger run up, or if I'm buying to hold long term. I'm kind of torn.

    I really enjoy trading cryptos because it's 24/7 so I can do it at night after the kids are in bed or on the weekends or whenever. I don't have enough skin in the game yet to have a trading account and a long term hold account. Luckily, Binance is dirt cheap so I (we) can trade literally a few coins at a time if we want and it doesn't eat into earnings much at all.

    Pro tip: buy 1 Binance coin (BNB) and set it to use BNB to pay for trading fees to cut the fee in half (0.10% to 0.05%). So if you trade $100 worth of crypto, the fee would be a nickel instead of a dime. $1000 trade would cost 50 cents instead of a dollar. You might need more than 1 BNB coin if you like to trade a lot or with a lot of money. Either way, it's absolutely worth it.

    Sold TRON at 599 Satoshis for a gain of 45 Satoshis, about 8% gain. On to the next coin...
