I dabbled in bitcoin when it first came out sometime in 2009. I installed all the stuff to mine but for some reason never got any work to crunch. the program was just trying to get work chains but never received any. I left it for a few days and saw some old block data was received and the system was still trying to download new work. no positive activity so I abandoned it. Of course now, I wish I had stuck with it and fixed the issue... but at the time it seemed like a way to needlessly consume my time and computing power for seemingly nothing. hindsight is 20/20 eh? |

There you go nothing worse than FOMO, I am not hearing good things about Tron, but I also know just based on greed and the market cap for crypto currency rising Tron can Easley jump up to $1 in a few months, your friend thinks that as well and wants to go big. If you have a few thousand you should have him Tron you as well. Ow wait he cashed out with TRON from .03 to .24 in one day? |

100% guaranteed your friend is only telling you about the wins. Gamblers never admit the losses. |

He only told me about the extra $25k he dumped into Tron (in U.S. Currency) AFTER he made a killing. If he had lost it, I never would have known. Investing in crypto currency is gambling. Period. Was it a fairly safe bet to invest in a 3 cent coin? Relatively, yes. A 3 cent coin that hadn't fluctuated much in value over the last year was not going to suddenly drop to zero. Is Bitcoin that safe? Hell no. Are both safer than playing Blackjack in Vegas? I would say yes, at least for the next couple months. |

It peaked at around 26 cents and dropped to 14 cents where it is right now. He was lucky as hell that he happened to check his account when he did. Its trending down right now, but I might jump in at around a dime and see where it goes.. |
