I'm a part of alot of crypto forums, alot of even the stableish coin forums are shitting their pants. Coming here is a breath of fresh air. What does it matter what the value is right now if I wasn't planning on selling in the first place

ethanwc · 2021-05-22T03:48:14+00:00

I don't speak for everyone, but i imagine most of us are here because we see the long term value in cardano. Also, It's not volatile enough to attract the weird shitcoiners.

YoungMillie · 2021-05-22T03:42:37+00:00

I’m staking my ADA. Don’t have time for the market.

CryptoConceal · 2021-05-22T04:00:35+00:00

Nonsense! I’m here and I’m not sensible at all!

Sendall_UK · 2021-05-22T05:18:45+00:00

Well every other community is crying about the crush, posting hodl memes or blamming other coins. In this sub all people do is ask about staking.

flwfisher · 2021-05-22T05:19:15+00:00

I don’t know much about crypto at all. Done a lot of research on beginners stuff and cardano is one that pops up everywhere. Bought in at $1. Have 527 to play with. Never been more sure of any investment in my life

Treedanglingonasloth · 2021-05-22T05:31:44+00:00

Only place you’ll see people sighing with relief that they got another chance to buy it below $2

Probably_a_Shitpost · 2021-05-22T06:30:28+00:00

The moment I see a bunch of folks chimping out about moon and when Lambo here, I'm selling everything. We don't do that here.

aznble · 2021-05-22T05:30:50+00:00

Every community is like that when it still small. Wait till grow to 1 million ADA hodler and shit will happen soon.

gride9000 · 2021-05-22T10:00:58+00:00

Dont get me wrong if it goes to 10 dollars tomorrow i will act fucking stupid

Im-All-In-2323 · 2021-05-22T04:40:28+00:00

70% staked

Substantial_Side_626 · 2021-05-22T07:49:42+00:00

I’m sure this group will see an influx of crypto crazies in the years to come when people are FOMOing into ADA. I think it’s further evidence how early we are to this party.

For now though, I think most of us consider ADA a core piece of our portfolios. We see the tremendous upside and potential. I also think ADA holders stay more informed, and not just because of Charles’ updates, but general research. Staying informed is leading to its stability because people are aware of milestones, like smart contracts coming this year, and it gives more reason to stake.

Acrobatic_Hat_4865 · 2021-05-22T06:15:41+00:00

Mega crash ? No time to be involved into crashes. Tell me about the p2p testnet progressions.

Puppy_Coated_In_Beer · 2021-05-22T07:14:08+00:00

I'm honestly scared what's going to happen when we get a million subscribers.

/r/cryptocurrency has already become a shitpost fest. I just hope we won't ever give out crypto on here to incentivize people to shitpost.

Sartpro · 2021-05-22T12:16:52+00:00

I moved my ADA to the Yoroi wallet. Psychologically it's much more calming to see that no matter how much the market fluctuates, all of my ADA is still there. Mindfulness in the hodl. That's my strategy.

GroundbreakingEbb616 · 2021-05-22T10:16:23+00:00

Not selling before 2032

GlitteringTour3673 · 2021-05-22T05:03:00+00:00

Once you do your research on cardano you start to realize it's forever!! Holding it 4L!

BigJimBeef · 2021-05-22T09:15:09+00:00

If i put $100 a week away and stake it @ 5% interest in 30 years i'll have about $370,000. Not bad and that assumes the price stays at this level... which honestly i think is pessimistic.

Puzzleheaded_Mind623 · 2021-05-22T11:39:09+00:00

Adding $50 a week like a savings. I like the dollar cost strategy. Wont look back, should have nice gains for me and my family down the road

BrianJ1984 · 2021-05-22T05:20:20+00:00

Very nice of you to say Lloyd (Jack Nicholson voice), pretty sure 99.99% of the world wants things to change so their lives can be improved, and it will change, but progress takes time.

smoochwalla · 2021-05-22T07:42:15+00:00

I think ada's ability to hold strong during this dip shows that the cardano community has more HoDLers than anything else. This makes me feel safer investing because it seems most are here to hold for sometime and the price may remain stable compared to other alts.

We were already stable around a dollar earlier in the year. Exciting stuff.

matthewstone76 · 2021-05-22T06:10:02+00:00

I only have coinbase pro besides my ETH staked in coinbase. How can I stake my ADA? I'm fairly new to all of this but, I believe in the technology and am in for the long term

Dangerous_Moose_4765 · 2021-05-22T10:01:08+00:00

I see cardano as a platform for building software, the coin and its price is a side effect. :)

chepnut · 2021-05-22T11:26:18+00:00

some would say we are the 3rd generation of crypto redditor, a majority of us have been through it all and see the bigger picture ahead of us. For me ADA isn't a get rich quick scheme, I believe in the project long term for what it will do. This is what I got into crypto for way back in 2013. I went all in with LTC because I liked the idea behind it, the same way I feel about ADA. I hope is succeeds in its mission.

Mediocre_Piccolo8542 · 2021-05-22T12:39:31+00:00

Some people can be annoying with their skepticism just for the sake of being skeptical, things where a journalist writes some garbage, but certain people will accuse developers behind Cardano of fueling up the hype, when they actually only answered some simple question. I guess that's part of reddit culture.

Other than that, it is a great sub. Most of crypto subs are maximalist or price oriented, which is like talking to religious fanatics. And some are also quite delusional, typical scam victims - arguing their micro cap project with anonymous developers, and without basic functions, will overtake BTC within the next months.

ChasseurOnFoot · 2021-05-22T13:08:26+00:00

Same, I'm new here and surprised by how mature people are in this community.

Toowork · 2021-05-22T15:09:30+00:00

Yesss the 16 year old holder is very mature 😎. Thanks

Betternet_ · 2021-05-23T00:07:28+00:00

I was once a shitcoiner, I came to this community because it's a breath of fresh air. I believe in the technology and want it to succeed. In its current form I have faith that it will stay stable, so I don't really see the need to freak out, I'm in it for the long run.

astral_traveling · 2021-05-22T06:34:20+00:00

2021-05-22T05:33:02+00:00

I agree! Everyone is helpful and give realistic replies.

vegetabluessg · 2021-05-22T08:28:04+00:00

Is sunde swap a scam?

Jumpy_bull_8577 · 2021-05-22T10:16:36+00:00

I am holding till i die

Caranthiir · 2021-05-22T11:51:55+00:00

Ada feels as save as eth for me. And selling would cause less staking, no thanks

japanisthebesttttt · 2021-05-22T12:15:21+00:00

I think most people are holding for long term.

olsmobile · 2021-05-22T12:22:56+00:00

It feels that way until you watch one of the update streams live and a semi attractive woman starts talking. All of a sudden the live chat blows up with thirsty comments.

everything2themoon · 2021-05-22T13:55:49+00:00

I have been telling my friends... Cardano is by design a little more resilient to dips since majority of coins in circulation are staked.

Also, since all holders can expect 5% return on our coins, a 20% drop feels like a 15% drop. Am I right? Right? Right!

Lastly, most of us here simply have a longer horizon as far as our perspective is concerned.

CreepyZombie29 · 2021-05-22T14:25:19+00:00

Surprisingly censored*

Fuglypump · 2021-05-22T14:28:51+00:00

Cardano is for longterm investing, I don't know for sure but I think from an outside perspective it appears to look this way for newcomers and imho that scenario couldn't be better. Instead of getting a massive influx of short term investors that just want to pump and dump a coin for a quick buck or exit out before the bull run is over we are getting steady growth that is accumulating people who are staying in this for decades to come.

Slow and steady wins the race with this one, Cardano is like the crockpot I have going, have to wait a longass time for this roast inside to finish cooking but when it does it's going to be life changing, it's not even close to being ready to eat yet but omfg it smells so good right now.

Korpsian · 2021-05-22T15:36:08+00:00

The community and coin is so stable because of Charles Hoskinson is talking to the community non stop. You get fresh updates about the project and the future. Why sell if the future looks so fucking bright?

Rangdazzlah · 2021-05-22T15:41:26+00:00

They've had to thoroughly research Cardano to protect themselves from an unending barrage of trolling and FUD. ADA holders are sure in their investment.

corncan2 · 2021-05-22T16:08:42+00:00

Its because we dont play Lambo-Kazooie with ADA's image. We want to make ADA the change the crypto-scape needs and deserves. Have a question or concern? Happy to help. Money is nice too , don't get me wrong, but this isnt a pump and dump 'Papa Mark and Musk' brand crypto. Hopefully more people will see that down the road.

darksideflex · 2021-05-22T16:54:54+00:00

I think it’s because we all collectively know that Cardano is a solid project that will not only innovate in the blockchain space but also will help out an entire nation that didn’t have a lot of opportunities to begin with. It’s hard not to feel mature about that to be honest. I have never felt better about being a part of something.

Stevo-c · 2021-05-22T16:56:00+00:00

This community, more than others I am part of, are deeper thinkers and committed a sustainable and proud project. Although I have only bought into ADA over the last few months, this community have always supported the longevity and patients of this project. We know we will be seeing a lot if ups and downs (heartbreaking as the downs may be) knowing that thus project is no short term money maker, but a refreshing, non-contemptful (not really a word😊) upstanding project and community. I LOVE this project and how it will change the world for the better. Of course, I am in it to make money in the end. But this is no pump and dump scheme. I'm so proud to be a parr if it and never want to damage its character and credibility with crypto bashing and crude attempts to demean others and thereby ourselves. That's how I see it.

Bear-VC · 2021-05-22T17:07:27+00:00

We also love patting ourselves on the back.

thebestererrr-mA · 2021-05-22T17:13:47+00:00

Exactly! Cardano is a super solid project. I can see us taking a big chunk of the crypto space during these next few years.

Multipass10101 · 2021-05-22T22:47:12+00:00

It’s easy to ride the wave when you believe and support the vision 😀

pjnelson819 · 2021-05-22T23:08:35+00:00

It’s cause we all have to have at least 4 ounces of maturity to understand cardano

finer69er · 2021-05-22T23:25:56+00:00

Why is it so low now

Willy_White · 2021-05-22T08:00:28+00:00

I'm completely in for Cardano long term. I staked some and Im dca on payday. This project is a game changer and I believe in it

tiger2119 · 2021-05-22T05:40:39+00:00

I just hope that Cardano gains momentum once this valley in the cripto market passes

Fit_Battle3831 · 2021-05-22T08:14:48+00:00

At the scale that Charles invisioned Cardano would be you have to be stupid not to be in

DONOHUEO7 · 2021-05-22T12:56:06+00:00

It's great! Don't be me wrong i think it's fantastic what there doing over at the Dogecoin community, they do a great job with the hype train. But the "moon" thing gets tireing at times, and some of the "predictions" are laughable! This community seem much more relaxed, mature and realistic, also the more I read about the project the more i like it.

inminit · 2021-05-22T09:22:08+00:00

Potential years of bagholder present here!!!

davesaid · 2021-05-22T07:16:36+00:00

It’s quite refreshing to not see any real hysteria here when the value either explodes or implodes

mrkisswell · 2021-05-22T08:01:12+00:00

Please do enlighten us all as to what realistic price targets and use cases you've been hearing from all these mature holders that you speak of?

Expensive-Ad-145 · 2021-05-22T08:26:35+00:00

Wouldnt call it stable during the crash lmao

Fantastic-Cucumber-1 · 2021-05-22T10:11:17+00:00

Shit hits the fan when Ada moons

Toozballs · 2021-05-22T11:45:17+00:00

That’s because if you’re invested in Cardano, you are invested in the technology and mission

2021-05-22T13:55:08+00:00

That’s a new one. Usually it’s ‘the Cardano community is the best’.

Corvou · 2021-05-22T14:26:34+00:00

Exactly why I am long on ADA... and other reasons of course.

cardano
