KickCoin going up.
If you bought Universa ICO (or any ICO) tokens via kickico - check your wallets for KickCoins.

I'm up so much. Got in DENT, REQ and FUN early. If I had put my life savings into this stuff I would be choosing my lambo's colour right now. Alas

Yeah, if you think that way, you might as well put your life savings in another coin now :p

What do you know about Mercatox.com?

Looking to buy some random coin and that’s the top market according to coinmarket site.
Mind saying what coin it is? Might be a better market available.
Have used merca only a few times in an past...never had any issues. I get the impression their support isn't that great tho, so buy and get it out.

Coin is called KIN.

It’s still really cheap so thought I’d take a small gamble for the “incase” it grows gamble. Or what you think?

I’ve decided to start trying cheaper coins (worked out with Ripple) so have also bought a few TRX coins.

Or any other you could recommend?

Personally I'd rather use etherdelta.

1.) They offer ETH trading which is quicker & cheaper than bitcoin,
2.) Price seems a little bit lower there.

It can be a bit fiddly using etherdelta the first time. Else if you have BTC then maybe just use merca.
(I'll do an etherdelta video soon.)

Will have a look.

Have already sent a tiny amount of BTC to Mercatox (it’s been completed in Luno now just waiting for it to clear there).

What you think about that coin?

I haven't looked at their white paper & website in detail so not really clued up on the project.

Just taking a quite look at the chart and knowing what coins this price usually do (get pumped for profits in cycles) on etherdelta - it seems like it might be heading into a similiar pattern as before. Price might come down a bit. But your knowledge of the project and their releases might be more relevant than a chart :). Still seems to be on an upward trajectory and finding support on that blue line.

KIN has a huge supply - 756 billion. You can still make plenty money even if it gets to $0.01, but I wouldn't buy thinking it's going to be a $1 token.

Yeah to be honest not expecting the world of it. Put a tiny amount of cash in just to see what happens really.

Just a question. Shouldnt we be shouting out loud all the wierd and wonderful coins we trying out? Wont that help push the interest up? Doubt we would make a big enough push to drive it up to unreasonable rates but it might help?

@weelzSA - yes, use BNB, it's a lot cheaper.

Also, you'll have to trade/sell your LTC for BTC/ETH first, and then use that to buy whatever you want.

Doesnt this mean you need to actually own some BNB? I see you can enable it but if you don't have any how does it work that out?

On 1 jan 2018, I bought $20 dollars worth of the top 100 coins. :)

Well most of them.. like 95 or so. some of them are only available on obscure exchanges.

Interesting investment method thats for sure. Keep us updated. I struggle to keep track of 10coins, I'd lose my mind with 100 (95)

$20 * 100
Think it might have bought 100 of the newest coins - potential to see multiple 2000% increases.
Either way - cool experiment :).
Keep us posted on how it goes.
Must be a pain keeping track of them all. You got 'em all blockfolio'd?

Will do.. up around an average of 10% but its still early days and there will be storms to weather.

Stole the idea from this guys. https://www.cryptocompare.com/portfolio-public/?id=43976

What about doing that for the top 100-200 coins. Also another interesting concept.
