Re <<Casper>> ... would observe that Casper de-risking is closer to the end than the beginning, and first test of faith might be complete. During the ought-to de-risking I added to Casper bag because I am simultaneously agnostic, greedy and faithful, on balance, to the weight of ~12%. Doubtful I would ever buy a share I hold after a 95% collapse; certainly had never done it before. Casper was my largest single position (excluding real estate) and is now, after the normal crypto de-risking, my second largest single position. Am wagering that it shall revert to largest single position soon enough. Am I interested in selling my hoard costing 0.01? No. Thinking of selling my punted loot costing 0.05x - 0.06x? No. $1.00? No. $3.00 might elicit some sale of Casper earnings. $10 would mean a new dynasty is born. Every portfolio needs blue-sky, and Casper is pure unadulterated sky, that which might turn blue, when we view in rear view portal as we reach escape velocity. There shall likely be a few more 95% down-stretches, and for those we should be thankful, pray and prey, then pray again. All Caspers staked and earning more Caspers at 8% annual yield. Warning, my Caspers are written at $-0- on the books, because I have no idea how to discern its value; it, like many if not all cryptos, are pure-plays for speculation. Much like trading cards and stamps and paintings, as opposed to coins and watches. I have no idea what Caspers might be used for. Nations might use it to keep order. Enterprises can use it to make money. Amazon, IBM and PWC can all used it, Wired into the DNA of clients, instead of using Ethereum and Hyperledger. People can use it to earn yield and transfer value. Who can know? thus the sky that might turn blue. coingecko.com
