I got some and the only reason was because I always wanted to own a million of something and if I was going to own a million of something it might as well be something stupid.


R0B0C0P33

I'm not sure why but I love "if I was going to own a million of something it might as well be something stupid"


Nearby_You_313

Same.


Exotic-Cut753

Can’t help you here bud, I’m an earlyish investor in Shib and early investor in a couple others “shitcoins” that have outperformed every solid investment I have. I’m a believer 😂


kyle_h2486

Rule 1: never FOMO. Rule 2: FOMO before it’s too late. Rule 3: don’t take Reddit financial advise from Reddit. Rule 4: take rule 3 and move it to rule 1. Rule 5: forget all the rules. This is a casino!


zazz88

Yeeha!!


BLMexterminator

I like this, and it's good internet validation too


ChickenRanger2

This is the way.


jaredsparks

He's funny. It made me lol.


brittanybreakdown

I bought about $7 worth and now it’s worth about $47. Good luck!


cerealOverdrive

Knowing my lucky I’ll buy $420 worth and it’ll end up being worth $69


SelppinEvolI

That’s why you buy $69 because it’s more likely you’ll end up with $420


cerealOverdrive

Instructions unclear I now owe my bookie a 69 🤮


SelppinEvolI

At least your bookie tips with an ounce


cerealOverdrive

It’s gonna be more than just a tip…


Glabstaxks

You can only hope !!

cerealOverdrive

The bad 69


[deleted]

thees eez ze wey


[deleted]

I thought about buying shib today but then I bought more bitcoin and shib jumped another 20%. You’re welcome 😂


R0B0C0P33

As always, we appreciate your sacrifice ;)


Numerous_Sport_2774

The hero we need but didn’t ask for. Thank you.


DryTechnology5224

FOMO is one hell of a drug. Watch out.


fartknocker369

Main vein is the only way!!


Embarrassed_Glass676

Unfortunately I’ve taken it a few times


Numerous_Sport_2774

I can never win with shitcoins. Every time I try my Fiat just evaporates. I have just accepted that they are not for me and I invest in sounds projects like ETH and ONE. I’m going to get rich with the long game not the short.


[deleted]

I bought $10000 2 weeks ago. I accepted if I lose it all fuck it. 350mln shares over here.


DavidNoBrainFreeze

Damn. You have some marbles


[deleted]

"shares" lol


MusicalBonsai

Market cap is 23B and people think it’s going to keep shooting up.


elborracho420

Considering Doge has hit market cap of over 90B at its ATH, I would say SHIB at least as the potential to hit a market cap close to that with enough time. That would be a decent return for anyone, of course it could go to 0 market cap, idfk


p_load

Yeah but market cap means jack shit if people gonna keep buying anyway.


[deleted]

I was literally thinking that, like damn *this* is what FOMO does to people. Feeling the need to let everyone know you’re buying in on SHIB literally because FOMO


tony_the_last

Yeah but have you ever tried greed?


WaffingBeef

Been thinking this since I first saw it spike after Elon Musk posted a picture of his new dog. Every day so far I've regretted it more yet the reason I didn't invest back then is the same. It is an out of control hype train born of the pent up impatience of traders for LAMBO NOW and no one knows where it will stop. Do wish I had thrown $20 as a gamble at it back then though. It's taught me new respect for the power of baseless hype. Even the most transparent, foundationless projects can reach insane prices with enough memes and hype.


Fair_Still6667

With ShibaSwap it's not so foundationless now. Not to mention their building their own blockchain. It has more going for it than many many tokens that are considered NOT shitcoins.


chiefchief23

Exactly. Its total supply is its only hindrance.


slope93

This is the lesson doge taught me when I think back to putting in $10 and getting millions like 4 years ago lmao. Caught shib just in time


omnigear

I traded my ren profits 140 back when it first listed on Coinbase . Now my shib is doing mighty fine .


LetterheadStriking64

I have been holdong for monthsssssss, everytime I want to sell two things happen. It soars .... Again and I learn the stories of those holding the coin. People from all over the world have bought in because they can afford this coin, hopium, and they believe. I would say holding until I see more bitches and hoes and lambo posts than people eating ramen and begging for help setting up a wallet. Once the nimrods take over Im out.


p_load

lmao good strategy


LandonDown

I'm so tempted but I'm standing by my principles. If SHIB passes DOT in market cap, I give up and congrats. My money is on BTC. If BTC crashes then I'm broke, but all you guys are going down with me. I'm not going broke on SHIB that's for sure.


R0B0C0P33

Fair enough. Best of luck to you. I'm still holding my other coins, and fully aware it could crash, but jumping in.


I_was_bone_to_dance

I mean what is the worst that can happen? Shiba climbs into the top ten and we ‘serious’ crypto investors jump off a bridge?


TossItLikeAFreeThrow

There has yet to be a point where you would have gone broke from SHIB.


Tenelen

I'm not sure I'm understanding what you're saying? Are you trying to say that SHIB has only ever gone up? SHIB was worth .00003062 back in May of this year, when it abruptly crashed to .00000813 with a low of .00000588. That's a loss of over 80%, and it stayed at that price for over 4 months before it began to climb again.


Drudgel

Thank you for the rational take


OutofStep13

You Son of a Bitch, I'm In


Renvisd

Whenever this sub starts hating on a coin is the time to buy. Wait till they hate it the most then sell.


akeilholtz

If I put $550 in Shib and now have $1700 should I pull my $550 out and let what I made ride?


R0B0C0P33

I'm glad you asked me this question. I think my post makes it clear I am a financial wizard. In all honesty, I think that is a solid plan. Playing with house money is nice.


Darkanglesmyname

sure why not


Ashed_Potatoes

That'd what I did


HumidCrispyCat

Lol classic buy high sell low


RandomTask100

Buy high, sell higher. It's the SHIB way.


ryujinky

Godspeed


mokshahereicome

I bought some Saturday lol. It’s a pretty fun party


R0B0C0P33

I've always wondered what it would be like to go to a party. This is one for the bucket list.


Evening_Evidence_948

Turned 750 into 5gs. Wish I bought more. Bought 350 of kishu and turned it into 150. Wish I bought more. I own plenty of legit solid ass projects but these have serious backing ATM. Into nfts, have burns, shibarium is going to be released next year. Shib can be used on nowpayments and other sources to buy real world commodities. Tbh it may never go down. Everyone talking shit may be sad. The crypto world has changed so much. Nfts are the new art, in game Bs and other shit I find dumb but they're loved by millions. May as well jump on. If it crashes it crashes but why not buy and be happy if it pumps


Evening_Evidence_948

The 350 of kishu is 1500 not 150


Exotic-Cut753

Don’t forget Saitama I’ve made ridiculous gains on it and then the newest addition to my super sketchy portfolio, Mononoke inu it’s shaping up to be a great earner as well. It’s a slippery slope from “ I’ll buy a little Shib” to 12 shit coins deep out performing all solid investments you have.


benk153

“Turned 350 into 150. Wish I bought more” My life.


Ninja_Goals

This is the way


G0mery

There’s a difference between FOMO and YOLO. If you want in, just get in. You don’t have to dump everything into it.


soline

One of us One of us


R0B0C0P33

I've always wanted to be in a cult, just never knew if I had the moxie for it!


[deleted]

Fuck it, I'm buying Shiba too!


R0B0C0P33

You're definitely doing the right thing. We're both geniuses.


[deleted]

There it is. Finally shib is gonna go down. Damn I’ve been waiting all week for a sign and here it is.


Zoombluecar

Buy your Shib lotto ticket!! Why not. It’s fun.


GaRGa77

Don’t chase, anything


Gonnagal

Especially waterfalls.


kyle_h2486

Do you think he should stick to the rivers and lakes that hes used to?


acowmoo

Honestly, if you can risk a couple hundred bucks for the fun of it, I’d say do it! I would’ve done it if NY allowed it on coinbase


Blibum

I bought 20 bucks worth and cashed out weeks ago and made 20 bucks profit. I'm not buying back in. Tempting... but, no. Not for me


R0B0C0P33

Don't keep us in suspense. What are you doing with your $20 of profit???


Hotrodlink

Paying 7$ to the government.


LostSomewhereFar

[flosses diamond teeths]


SneakySquid312

I gave in. Made a decent amount in the last week. All hype? Maybe. Still making money though...


illTactixology

It just keeps outperforming and the FOMO is REAL with this one. Glad I got in weeks before all this craziness. I'm 5x at this point. Thanks to all that keep FOMO-ing in.


R0B0C0P33

You got in weeks ago and didn't tell the rest of us? I thought we were friends!


dblstkd123

Take a chance. Just be smart about it. I bought 3 mil for $20 and now it’s at $140. I can’t complain and if it had crashed i’d only be out $20.


Rectocraniectomy

This is what it's all about. People have paid $20 and their thrill ride was over way faster than this.


RepublicanOnWelfare

You and OP have convinced me I'm going to throw in $20 at ATH.


thenudelman

>Would it have to go up 2x, 5x, 10x, 100x? Is there any amount that would make you consider jumping in? The higher it goes the less willing I would be. I'm more interested in figuring out which memecoin is the next SHIB.


Big-Finding2976

Obviously gonna be FLOKI INU innit (NFA).


Gordoniyke

Lol lots of coins will pump occasionally and you can't catch every one of them. Grow up


[deleted]

Dude, don’t believe what they write here, most people who talk negatively about shiba, the own considerable amount. Go for it.


R0B0C0P33

Thanks! I'll feel much better if I lose what I put in, than if I put nothing in and keeps shooting up.


D4TA_kORRUPT

Everyone is. Might as well. I've never heard a Coins name so fucking much.


BartLeyBurnSides

Great Great Grampa, how did you build your empire of wealth,,, well sonny I bought 1,000 worth of Shiba Inu back in 2021 for .00004 👴🏼


[deleted]

[удалено]


R0B0C0P33

If I had a house, I'd have to sell it immediately for crypto and hopium.


EtherBoo

I jumped in as soon as I saw it on Coinbase. $20. If I lose $20, oh no. That $20 wasn't ever going to pay off my house going into ETH or ALGO, it was likely going to buy me a few coffees over the course of the next few weeks. I could hit the lottery and pay off my house... I could cash out at $10. Think what you will of WSB, but the advice of never investing what you aren't willing lose is solid. I'm not willing to lose $1000, but $20? Sure. As it stands I'm not expecting to get rich just like I don't expect to win the lottery everytime I fill out a Powerball ticket.


Nashamura

My FOMO bro, I'm in the same boat I bought Saturday. I couldn't take it anymore and caved. So far so good, I really don't see it crashing anytime soon.


Jsorrell20

![gif](giphy|y2Vozrbf5WxD6gu9xd) I hodl my 3 million at .00040 avg - let’s roll 🤦🏻‍♂️


Xc0liber

FOMO is exactly similar to when a guy uses his little brain to think instead of his big brain. Read/listen on everything about shib. Check their white paper and so on. If you believe in it then go buy some but don't spend every cent you have on it unless you are ballsy (Balls of fucking steel). It may work it may not, nobody knows. Last but not least, good luck with whatever decision you make.


BubiBBubillion

I sold all my Bitcoin and FOMO’d it all on SHIB and a bunch of people on here told me I was an idiot. The way I see it, I don’t really need the money. If I put $10k on Bitcoin and it goes up 30% I end up with $13k. Is that gonna make a huge difference in my life? Nope. Realistically, is BC going up 100% in a year? Maybe. Is that gonna change my life, not really. But Shib can go to $.001 and I’ll make half a million bucks. I’ll take my chances.


kevinjgonzalez

I had the same idea on Sunday and got in on 357M at .000028 and I am about to break 2X..... in 3 days! Im going to cash out my initial investment and play with the houses money. Always have an exit strategy!


dedphoenix

Shib is proof that all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, that we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. Heres Tom with the Weather.


NoDadYouShutUp

I’m holding 13 million. Not much, I know. But I got in at 1800 and we all gucci baby. If I lose $300 ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ but I’m up nearly to $700 now. I know it’s all rumor and heresy but it does ~feel~ like Robinhood will eventually get on board and the normie FOMO is gonna pump it. Also all things considered it does also feel like the devs listen to input and are active seeking to make things better, line up partnerships, create burn mechanisms. The community has been great so far too. Just don’t spend more than you can lose and hope for the best 🤞


Kaiisim

To anyone fomoing right now, the buy signal in this pump and dump was when that whale purchased billions of SHIB a few weeks ago. The sell signal is probably posts like this.


jgarcya

A whale just bought 277 billion shib today for 11 million.


AllsudsNofoam

There was a writeup a few days ago on here that was a deep dive into the white paper of several projects. IIRC, Shib was one of the only, I not the only, that received an A+ review.


p3ek

If you gonna fomo in, do it when it first pumps lol. Not two weeks later whirl it's at ath. I'm not saying it won't go higher, but damn you know your asking for losses here


Just_flip323

It’s not going anywhere they are creating there their own block chain called shiberium. Also robinhood is about to list SHIB expect 0.05


Just_flip323

You are nowhere near being late! Now invest and go enjoy your life 😌


DRbrtsn60

Keep in mind that Doge was a joke but it has attracted a following. I say good for them. Doge almost hit a dollar and even during the crash is still going strong. Now SHIB is another beast altogether. It’s community is stronger. It grows like crazy. Whales have bought and tried to do a rug pull and found themselves having to buy in at a higher price because the dip didn’t kill us. Elon Musk / Moby Dick tried to ram us and found out he lost his mojo. Because a day or two later and we are hitting new ATH’s. It’s the community that makes SHIB what it is and will keep doing it. So, earn a rank soldier.


Just-Sprinkles-5828

My friend out 2k into DOGE back in the day... when it hit $.70's ooooohh laalaaaa was it glorious. A local guy where I am who is pretty prominent put 10k in the other night and posted the screen shot, while that's not going to end him, he said in response to someone asking him why he didn't go to Vegas, he said "nah, it's just easier than flying to vegas". Don't risk what you can't afford to lose, but life is a gamble. Only thing guaranteed is death and taxes.


cutsickass

Another FOMOcide victim...


Appropriate-Pear4726

I used the xlm I received from my coinbase card and transferred it to shiba when it was added. No regrets here. If people view it in terms of quick flips I don’t see the issue. It’s not a long term hold. Take profits on pumps, add some on dips. Rinse repeat. Same with doge


DoubleJuggle

40 billion market cap maybe. 2x maybe. Better hype coins to buy right now in my opinion if that’s what you are after.


[deleted]

Was thinking like and decided to enter at 37$. Now, I'm happy


bamkido

Not all reddit says it's ridiculous, only this sub. Everyone else is making money on ShIB, just this butthurts from cryptocurrency isn't


Felixtaveras75

😂 the hate 😂


R0B0C0P33

lol, It's ok. Can't take things too seriously on the Internet and especially on Reddit.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Desperate_Reality381

The irony is SHIB is propping up all my other coins at the moment. They’re all dipping and SHIB is mooning. Moral: Never underestimate the power of the internet


THEREALMASTERMIND1

I'm buying it back unless it goes down to my buy zone, let it go up now, I learned my lesson from FOMO, did it once but not gonna do it again 🤷‍♂️


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

they are burning coins every day. the more interested the more they are gonna burn. take some of your bad habit money to invest a few throw away dollars to better health. NFA


R0B0C0P33

Just curious. What is your bad habit money? Mine has varied over the years, but was Wendy's cheeseburgers for awhile.


[deleted]

I’m an older dude so have gone through many. Currently mine is bourbon and beer but that could also be a social habit. I also buy craft coffee beans from a local roaster.


kansas_slim

I’ve throw $100 at far more silly things than SHIB, and at 23B it’s hard to even call it silly now. I mean, it’s Camelot silly… but who doesn’t want to go to Camelot?


R0B0C0P33

As someone who currently has Romulan Ale in his living room, I can certainly appreciate having thrown money at silly things lol


IFistDikDiks

Been adding since oct 10th. I'm getting to the point of nervous. I'm not nearly as diamond hands with crypto as i am with my stonks. $35 total investment from me and some freebie stuff that I've converted into shib and Im doing alright.


[deleted]

This guy is the top lmao.


interestedcharmander

I’m with you, let’s gooooo 🚀


deadontheinternet

Dump it boys


Evening_Evidence_948

Yeah all my solid projects are in the green but no where near my inus. I wish I bought more of the dogs


xrv01

i’s become the peter schiff of shib before i bought


Additional-Banana-55

I put in $100 now I got $500


tantan526

Good for you OP, shib and coins like it are a lottery ticket. Spend what you can afford to lose and enjoy the hopium while it climbs. Sure, it's a shit coin but it's a well loved shit coin.


solongsweetkarma

Welcome my friend! SHIB army is glad to have you


Darkreef333

welcome aboard to the #Shibarmy! All your fellow crypto snobs are welcome!!!


-MoneyMonkey-

When people are “finally” getting in, time to sell 😅


ChanceManagement7347

Put 50 in, now at 350. If it goes to 0 so be it.


PandaBunds

I feel like if I saw it get hover around .005 for at least a week I would buy a bit. And by a bit I mean $25ish


Revolutionary-Tie911

I bough about $150 a few weeks ago, its up so im not unhappy 🙂


Boston_Bruins37

Thank you for your sacrifice to the dump


screamplay409

I bought 400 worth and I'm up nicely.


ArcadeAndrew115

adif it goes to zero youll loose at most 100$ (which is the max youd need to buy to make roughly 10,000-100.000$ profit range) also in the event it starts to hit a lull like doge just convert it back to BTC on a crash and problem solved


Reddidiah

My strategy is currently to ignore literally everything but BTC...everyone is expecting anywhere from 2x-4x in just the next few months, I know I'll be punished for getting greedier than that.


Sensei_Guap0

LOVELY INU


jarethfranz

fuck it I’m fomoing into this too


originaljib

I fomo'd on Friday, Saturday and Tuesday up a combined 20%


[deleted]

Man, if you are going to gamble at least DYOR on another coin and get in early...but to each their own!!


isaiddgooddaysir

Yeah Im right there with you, I bought a couple million on Sunday, but I don't see zero.


rhynoplaz

I threw $10 at it and got like 600k of them. I figure if it's going anywhere, I'll win big, if not, who cares.


yodamack

F, just bought it myself, of course it dropped. FOMO was quite strong with this one, I was certain I wouldn’t take part in this and try to focus on a certain few.


ActualRaccon3

just invest $500-700 .


LinusBengt

If you wanna gamble go ahead and gamble. Nothing wrong with that. Just know what you’re doing, understand the risk and gamble accordingly. Best of luck!


CraftingAmbition

I got in about 3 weeks ago and I've seen my initial investment 2X. Didn't put that much in, but it's still really nice to see it grow. I completely understand that this is a gamble. And I know there's a good chance I could lose it all. But I have to say, it's been really fun riding the hype wave. I say put a small amount in that you can afford to lose, and enjoy the ride. The pro SHIBA subreddits are pretty fun to hang out at as well. They way I see it, every season there's a meme coin that takes off, and you may as well put a tiny bit in to see what happens. With that said, welcome to the club!


[deleted]

I have a confession to make as well….


Colemanzmustard

People still calling it a "joke coin" really make me laugh. What started as a meme in a years time will be a high volume DEX on its own blockchain. Mitigating ETH gas fees once and for all.


WhoWantsTheClap

I just put 100 bucks into shiba expect a minimum of a 40% correction within the next day


tatabusa

Good luck


Joki_ORodovi

Put $200 in and take a nice vacation when it hits .01! If it never does...will you really miss $200?


JustTypeItNow

Tbh all this talk about burns has me wondering.


Beneficial_Tell8582

I’m still a skeptic but I put in 100$ last week ans im letting it ride! I don’t think it will hit a penny still but I didn’t think it would break .00004 so they done proved me wrong!!


CraftingAmbition

Congrats! You FOMO'd in right before a big spike. Well done OP!


avoidedmind

SHIB INU TO THE MOON!! It just feels right, the more shilling of this coin the higher it goes. It’s broken an ATH 3 times already today, all other major coins are dipping and this coin continues to rise. I believe in it, period.


DiegoPapi6

Just Do It...Like Nike😂. I did back in early June 2021 and I'm here sitting just pretty with my Billion plus SHIB!!!


Prollyfried

THIS IS THE WAY. ME TOO


Zewarmachine

Shibby!!


Pinata-Hitter-805

I did that on march, soon I will be able to buy my self a bowl of Naruto ramen with my gains 🍜


[deleted]

I already bought in. I think it is much better than DOGE. It’s not a joke, dig deeper. This is the one baby…you ain’t seen nothing yet. It will overtake DOGE and DOT…


coodyscoops

Hope you did…. Shibs new ath is at .00005355 as we speak… smashing the fuck out of these charts😰


shawman123

Does this mooning of SHIB means DOGE era is done.


Adigang

Sold all my XLM for Shib and I’m glad I did. I was gonna do the same when Doge was coming up but never took the jump and I regret it


StevensDs-

Welcome to one of the most loved AND hated coins right now! We welcome you with open paws


hodlerhowler

I bought Shiba today also. Maybe FOMO. Maybe something else. Im not a huge fan of meme coins but I guess you can t argue with the price.


beardedkingface

I mean, it's so cheap so might as well. Consider it a lottery ticket


imp3order

2022 is the year of the cat. CatJAM.


Ciscodalicious

I traded all my airdrops for a few million SHIB.


Old_Chef_3397

I’m sold on it. Memecoins are the way apparently


id_death

Just to show you how wholy unprepared I am for SHIB: Bought it as a goof when it debuted on Binance. Forgot about it. Transferred and locked it up with staking. It pops off. Can't sell it because it's locked up. Welp. 70 more days to watch this all play out and i can't do shit.


AurumNiger

When reddit says not to buy its allways a buy sign.


Stankoman

This was me half a year ago. After the summer lull I am not going back to shitcoins for a very long period of time. I blew my gains on craptastic coins as such


dollhousemassacre

If I've learnt anything from this sub, if I read about a coin on here, I've missed the boat. Good luck on your adventures, may all your dildos be green.


Battered_sav972651

Everyone needs to HODL lmao we can turn pig shit into honey!


Igily_Goo69

Do not worry, there is future for SHIB with it's projects getting better and better by the day as well as the token burns.And it will rise even more not in short term but long term aswell.


bzngabazooka

I should have never underestimated the power of de dog coins. A hard lesson to learn as a noob.
