Remember a few months ago, I said that I would buy a bitcoin worth of various alt-coins as an experiment to run here? Well, I didn't buy a whole bitcoin's worth, but I did start buying a couple thousand worth of altcoins over the Thanksgiving holiday. I scaled into some of the top ten altcoins (namely Ethereum, Bitcoin Cash, Litecoin, Ripple, Dash) just to test the waters and that portfolio has, obviously, gone up in value by about 30-40% (but who is counting)?
The biggest surprise mover, however, has been Litecoin.
Check out that MOON move! It's even turned up when priced in bitcoin.
You can credit Bitfury George.
And, of course, Charlie Lee's appearance on CNBC today. WATCH IT HERE.
If you follow him on twitter, he did give y'all a head's up. Follow him now and you'll know beforehand next time if you missed this leg up!
But - BE WARNED --
Personally, I'll HODL for now. But I've been around for years and have suffered the nauseous roller coaster ride of a few too many 70-90% corrections and so no longer panic so much. Before you dive into any crypto, please do your own research. There are multiple stories out there of fake Poloniex apps on Google Play and fake Ether wallets on Apple! Don't be scammed on your trip to the Moon!
