    I've been researching and thinking about putting some money in but not Bitcoin and Ethereum as they are at all time highs. Been looking at ripple recently at around .30/coin but haven't pulled the trigger. The upcoming release of tezos is also interesting though the release was pushed back to June.

    Not an expert, which is part of the reason I haven't jumped in yet, but have been looking into the space for the past couple months. Really regret not going in sooner on Ethereum tho...

    ripple is dumb as fck and defeats the purpose of a crypto
    go with litecoin

    id stick with btc, or LTC

    ethereum is a morgan chase product I believe? This also defeats purpose of a crypto. I could be wrong, but I was under impression it has 3rd party issues, unlike btc and ltc

    maybe pick up ethereum, but it is a product with roots in mainstream banking

    I've never heard that Ethereum is a Morgan Chase product. Is (http://fortune.com/2017/02/28/ethereum-jpmorgan-microsoft-alliance/) what you're thinking about?

    I mentioned Ripple as a good investment vehicle because of the low price.

    not sure where I read that, but I am pretty sure ripple and ethereum are not totally peer to peer, maybe I am wrong.

    seeing MS and MC get behind ethereum lead me to believe it is too much like standard currency and under central bank control

    the whole point of a crytpo is to NOT be under their control

    Gotta admit I know nothing about the subject. Some computer nerd tried to explain it to me but it all went right over my head.

    During the Great Depression, my grandpa and his brother printed up their own currency for his grocery store customers. They called it "script". I was never explained the ins and outs, I was not there during, but heard from relatives at funerals of how we got by helping other folks get by, with no help from the gubment.
