Honestly don't get caught up in just one or two or three crypto currencies craig...you need to Diversify like me...I put a few dollars into every crypto offered on poloniex, like spend at least one dollar on each one! Diversify MASSIVLY and like me youll never loose much money and always slowly be making more and more....I had like $150 last week and now its $350 ...DIVERSIFY!
