"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"

You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.

For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.

Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.

The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

Any idea on how to get/set an automatic buyer to catch those crash dips?

And can you explain a little bit more about cloud mining?
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

ETH flash crash explained. I follow Ivan and he's a good VERY intelligent dude. Follow him to learn.

you can use other exchanges that allow you to trade more cryptos (not coinbase), and you can set limit buys. Coinbase doesn't allow you to do this. I have not set reoccurring buys on coinbase so i'm not sure when they actually process the buys. I do not trade crypto's. IT's become very difficult to trade crypto's and people lose more money trading crypto's than from holding.

I like Coinbase because I like to do a lot with my phone. Any of you guys know anyone that set a low buy limit on Eth? Would that even work in that situation? If so I'm sure people came up big time.

That's f'n crazy.

Either one of three things is gonna happen:

1. Ethereum has already peaked ($0.96 to $51 in 18 months is remarkable enough) and there will be a huge fall from grace
2. Ethereum will surpass $1,000 a coin and overthrow bitcoin as the dominant crypto
3. It will slowly rise to the $100-250 range and be a solid alternative coin if Bitcoin remains the default coin

I'd be in good shape if 2 or 3 came true. Either way I think Ethereum is here to stay. So pissed I sold 100 coins for pocket change....
@BlueAlpha1 looks like 3 came true and we might be gearing up for 2. How's crypto space treating you?

100 ETH would be a nice amount right now and even crazier at $400 ETH.

Just an update for everyone. So I've been into Crypto for a good month now. Started in the red but back to green. Invested a lot in OmiseGo when it was around 1$ and now it's shot up to 3.50+. Also previously I mentioned I like District0x. It's ICO price was just .01 cents and now that is listed on the exchanges it is up to 2 cents. Easy flip for anyone who purchased that.

https://coinmarketcap.com/assets/district0x/

As far as CoinDash, it's really my biggest gamble thus far but currently on EtherDelta it's trading at 3 cents which is what I paid for it. So I'm just going to HODL and see what happens. Got a bunch of LiteCoin as well and some Ether when it was sub 200. Now it's over 250 as we speak.

My biggest loss however is Populous. I tried chasing the currency because of AAAgent but I know in the long run it'll make me some money. I purchased when it was 5.60 and currently at $4. So overall my first real month into ICO was a roller coaster but I'm in the green and it's all good.

ICO's I'm contemplating this month are 0x, Enigma, and Blockstack. Do your research fellas and let's get to this money!

Some people believe Bitcoin and Litecoin are the Gold and Silver of the next century.

Others say these "investments" are akin to lighting your money on fire. I say tell it the individuals who invested in Bitcoin at $0.07 in 2011 who are now multi-millionaires. BTC currently trades at $760 per coin.

While extremely volatile, dangerous, and difficult to understand (a recipe for disaster), IF cryptocurrency is here to stay, surely Bitcoin will not remain the only big fish in town forever.

Is anyone enticed by any alternative coins at all?
Ether

I made a program to track the exchange rate if you're interested. I haven't taken a deep dive into it yet though
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

Populous pumped up to around 6$ in two days so all of my investments are in the green. Even CoinDash even though CoinDash hasn't hit any major exchanges. They are only on EtherDelta. I have a good portfolio and good things to come.

Nice bro! I've been passively investing in crypto, but that makes me want to get into Alts.

Invested a lot in coindash when it was 3 cents per share. Now it's at 6 cents.

Easy flip of my money.

When I was speaking of investing in District 0x it was 1 cent per share. Now it's over 3 cents in less then a week after ICO.

Easy to flip your money guys. My rule of thumb is invest, take your initial investment out and leave the rest of your money into the ICO. It may moon. But at the end of the day I'm taking no L's.

Up overall by 33% in spite of buying during peak price periods.

Tezos trading at around x3 of ICO price on hitbtc an IOU exchange. Not interested in the short term flip. Have enough money coming in from other places to hold medium to long term. Principally in this for wealth creation so rarely likely to sell unless new information presents itself that suggests the long term prospects of any coins I'm holding become a lot poorer.

Current portfolio:

BTC - 34%
XTZ - 27%
ETH - 18%
LTC - 9%
PPT - 9%
BTH - 3%

What are everyone's thoughts on NEO? It has seen some pretty aggressive price movements lately but don't know enough about it yet and FOMO is a poor motivation to invest.

My friend invested in NEO when it was around $2. Now it's $33. He believes in it.

NEO is the Chinese Ethereum. They actually will start doing their own ICO's soon. It's definitely a good investment. My portfolio is up 100%. So I've essentially doubled everything that I've put in so far. Last week it was 9$ and went all the way up to $40. That's a good investment. The only reason I didn't jump on the train is because I can't hold NEO in my Ledger Nano.

Also for CoinDash. It's currently at 17 cents. AAAgent was visible irritated that I decided to invest in CoinDash. I've made a x5 on my money already. That's my best investment to date. CoinDash to the moon!!

Here is a sleeper pick for everyone out there: Golem, do your research.... Currently at .30 cents but will go up soon.
 

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"

Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."

You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.

She's been waiting forty minutes.

Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

A few of my family and friends have asked me to help them out with crypto. They don't have the technical background to confidently invest so they've asked me to do it all for them.

They know the risks - they could lose everything - but are still content for me to invest on their behalf. I'm not charging them a management fee but instead told them I want 50% of all profits generated. They've agreed to this. So my investment capital has now gone up a fair chunk and provided crypto does well I'm guaranteed even more gains.

^Look into District0x. Current at .079 cents now. It'll be pumped up this week. It's a good long term hold or if you want a short term flip it can be that as well.

What makes you say Golem is a sleeper.

Same with Districtx. What's your justification for holding?

Based on what I know of NEO it's a solid investment. Will jump in and buy a small amount to minimise the downside risk of a fall in price.

Still feel LTC is grossly undervalued given its technical superiority over Bitcoin.

Look at the technology of District0x. Basically it's a platform where other companies can build platforms known as districts on it. Think of a company building an Uber type of district or eBay type of district. It can be huge. When I originally told you guys of it a page or so back it was at one cent. Now it's currently at 8 cents. That's 8x return.

Also, District0x is only on two exchanges currently. They will be listed on one of the bigger exchanges next week. Once it lists on that exchange it'll pump.

Golem is a sleeper as it is currently undervalued. If you look at the charts it's been one of the coins that have been consistent and haven't gone up too much. The rest of the coins have been pumped but Golem has stayed idle for a while. I've heard they have big news coming up and that'll be a nice long term hold.

NEO is definitely a solid investment. That's a great conservative call. It's the Chinese Ethereum. You can't go wrong with that. For me I've been diversifying my funds into smaller coins that'll have a better ROI and it's turned out pretty well so far. This week alone I made 10k. Thanks to OmiseGo and CoinDash.

I'm sad I missed out on District0x so early. If I would've invested as much as I really wanted in it I'd have 10k more dollars in my pocket. But this is early in ICO land. I got a couple more ICO I know will be instant profits.

What ICOs coming up interest you the most?

I've only invested in Tezos so far and don't expect that to hit the exchange for a long time.
 

"I just moved here from Florida."

That sentence contains at least five follow-up questions she WANTS you to ask. Where in Florida? What brought you here? How long have you been in the area? What do you miss? How does it compare to here?

She handed them to you on a silver platter. And you said, "Oh cool. I come here every week. I love this band. Ummm... pretty crowded tonight."

She smiled politely. Nodded. And never texted you back.

I was that guy for years. Talking too much. Listening too little. Panicking about my next sentence while she was literally feeding me the answers.

Then I found 22 rules that fixed the whole thing. Rule number one: shut up and listen. She'll tell you exactly what to say.
