cool, I sent 1 btc to poloniex cause I wanted to buy at .0022, but chickened out and sent it back to coinbase, then it took off and i had to wait for transfer from coinbase to buy back again, got in at .003, and still buying, i have a buy at .0023 now, and that will be 2btc worth of ETC.. then I will hold for a while, but if it takes a big dip I will probably panic sell at a loss
TBH this #craigrant tag is not bringing any more Steem Power to the people using it. Its maybe just helping you out by creating a reputation inside the Steemit community and appearing as a widely used tag. #keepitreal
upvoting and comments on interesting posts generates more steem power, it's better than upvoting the popular stuff on the trending page or the $0 stuff on the new page
You have to be very careful when looking at ETC as something to flip and trade short term. For me I got in cheap and I held. It is a speculative bet that ETC will go up to $5 or more. A long shot, but that is why it is a gamble. The market is going to be very volatile. I am too scared to buy where it is trading right now ($2), I am content with the number I have. I probably would only buy again if it goes below .0012BTC again which I do not expect. Bitfinex may be trading it as early as Wed, so this could make a big difference.

:) Yes I do enjoy the buy and hold strategy. No panic! Buying in at $2 is bold, but you need to have the "go down with the ship" mentality if you see it drop to $1 because it could easily go up to $3 soon after. Look at the insane volatility of the last 24 hours. Anyway keep in mind how early on this is and how few exchanges have it. Also many Bitcoin people feel this is the perfect chance to play in the Ethereum space now that this version is not corporately controlled. There is a lot of psychology that is going into all of this and it could really lead to a boost of ETC long term. It really could become an equal to ETH, this concept was something that was not even considered a week ago. Things change fast in crypto-land. Keep up the great work.
Your buy etc post a day or two ago was right on the money holding close to 14,000 now. I'm gonna take your advice and wait till they go to $5. Thanks again for the insight !!!!!!!

Exhibit A was my original reply.
a good reputation as widely used tag is good for those using the tag, as bloggers that visit the tag will upvote and comment on the posts
Good to know.

ETC is perfect for you, as your super human power is holding :), I bought in at $2, and if it takes a dive to $1, I might panic sell for a loss
