I had no confidence in Elon anyway his lack of comment recently was a good indication. The coin will recover again but that was never going to end well. Buying in at 50 or 60 is not clever.
@Snoop you will still be in double your 1k?
I'm in no hurry to sell up the remaining 1k coins, 3 days ago I was blissfully unaware of the dogecoin explosion, When I got to the position of selling yesterday, I held back what I happy to lose and speculate on. We'll see what happens. I'm £4,600 up from an initial purchase of 6 quid, that I'd long forgot about and up until the late afternoon of Friday had no idea whether I still had access to them.
I was properly sweating trying to re-sync to the chain, first, it was 7+ years old and taking forever, then I found a bootstrap from late January, but that was also taking its time and I knew I needed to act fast before a crash, luckily somebody has posted a bootstrap of the chain from earlier in the day and I was able to grab that in a couple of minutes (thank god for fast internet), I then only had about 800 blocks to sync, so left it running 2 am on Friday and when I woke up at 6 it was synced and I transferred initially 1 coin to make sure it got to Binance ok, and once that had been confirmed I transferred the remaining balance.
I totally see how you guys get hooked on it.
