    Yeah mine is such a small amount I just left it on there. I also still have 2.5 shares of GME sitting on Robinhood. I'm too lazy to move them.

    31% gain for coinbase today...sigh...oh well. Maybe someday the little guys will have a chance to reap some of these big gains when companies launch

    COIN to me is a watered down version of the crypto market. I’ve done 5x with my holdings since January. Don’t feel much need to go in on COIN.

    Bitcoin ATMs will be goin up at Winn Dixie locations in Clay County. The fees are way too high but I'm sure they will get some use. Anything that moves Bitcoin is cool with me.

    Understand. For me it’s diversification.

    It wouldn't let me transfer anything out unless I liquidated all my crypto. I probably could have figured it out with more effort, but it isn't like I'm talking large quantities, so oh well. I've been happy on Webull.

    Forgive my ignorance, but can’t you watch these clips online anyway from people that recorded the game? Is the appear that they are collected and curated?

    Yes, you could. The appeal is that they are numbered which is guaranteed by keeping track with blockchain technology. Also some cards are more scarce by design, and rarity has value. Will this hold value long term? No clue. But if you get an ultra rare card it can go for as much as $200k right now. I'm basically just gambling with the hope that it will eventually be considered an investment.

    The best moment from my pack was a #695/35k Kevin Huerter layup.

    I gotta be honest; this basically sounds like digital beanie babies to me.

    It's just digital sports cards. That's it.

    Company has $35,000 in sales and stock "worth" $100 million. Hmmm.

    Speaking of NFTs Crypto etc...

    HUMBL is financial is something I have taken a swing at as a long term play. I bought 27k shares at.30 average before they did a 4to1 reverse split so now I sit around 7k shares. The price has taken a beating with the rest of the OTC market but I'm still up 5 figures but was up almost 40k before. Its a long hold for me as they are just starting and only released their first rendition of the app this past Friday.

    They are making a one stop shop as a pay app, merchant app, peer to peer and block chain crypto trading with patents on trading bots. They have Nelson Cruz and Aaron Rodgers on board for nfts so far with more to come.

    There are a lot of hit pieces in them from so called investor journalist sites but most have been drive by lazy pieces with little to no research. They did a reverse merger with TSNP which was a flooring company and skipped the IPO process. Their CEO Brian Foote has monthly investor calls and has clearly defined goals of uplistinf to Nasdaq and providing financials asap. Despite all of the info that is out there on them these investor articles were still questioning why a "flooring company" was getting into digital assets. Just figured I'd throw it out here when I saw this discussion.

    Also digibyte is the crypto they will use which reportedly is much much faster and less costly to use as actual currency than bitcoin. I have been adding $100 every few weeks of digibyte for a Couple months now starting at .05 cent average. Its now around .15
