Stagger your sells as price rises - and only ever sell percentages of your stack. You'll always have a bit of skin in the game in case it it has a dramatic rise - but also can say you cashed out with gains.

Facebook is speaking with a number of crypto projects as it explores ways in which it can use blockchain technology.

In recent months, Facebook's blockchain team, led by former PayPal executive David Marcus, has met with open source payments technology company Stellar about some of those opportunities, people familiar with the talks told Business Insider. While the talks were early stage, they could shed light onto Facebook's ambitions to push into finance and take on big banks.

For example, if Facebook wanted to rival the big banks' payments networks, it could leverage blockchain technology to do so, a person familiar with the firm's talks with Stellar said. The speed of certain blockchains over traditional financial pipes-and-plumbing is one of the most cited benefits of the red-hot technology. A JPMorgan research note said that the speed of a transaction on Ripple's network took four seconds versus the three to five days it takes for traditional banking systems to process a transaction.

Facebook is already taking other steps to break into banking. The company is reportedly considering showing users their bank balance or potential fraud alerts.

A Stellar insider told Business Insider it would make sense for Facebook to record payments transactions onto a distributed ledger like Stellar. Other merchants could then connect to a Stellar-based ledger. This platform could rival the SWIFT Payments network that now connects banks together and allows for money transfers.

"They'd be taking the rug out from under the banks," the person said. "They can add a bank more quickly than a bank could build a social network."

Sources say Facebook and Stellar have spoken about the firm potentially forking the main Stellar network as part of its blockchain efforts. A crypto fork is when a blockchain splits into two — both have the same underpinnings but can be managed differently moving forward.

Facebook is known for working with other open-source technologies, being one of the largest maintainers of React, an open-source technology language. It could in theory fork an existing blockchain as opposed to building its own.

A spokesperson for Facebook disputed that the company would build on Stellar's technology.

A spokeswoman for Stellar declined to comment.
'Improve the lives of billions of people around the world'

A source close to Facebook's blockchain business said the company is making a long-term bet on blockchain that will likely resemble its investments in artificial intelligence. Rather than targeting a specific vertical, such as payments, Facebook's blockchain group would provide a foundation from which the firm will be able to target an array of possible opportunities.

A recent Facebook job ad reflect this notion, saying the blockchain group "is a startup within Facebook, with a vision to make blockchain technology work at Facebook scale and improve the lives of billions of people around the world."

The firm is also looking to expand its crypto group, according to job ads. One position the firm is looking to fill is manager position for a newly created software engineer team within the blockchain group.

Facebook is also hiring a blockchain public policy manager to analyze policy issues relating to blockchain and advise product and business teams on those developments.

Already, Shashwat Gupta, a former product manager for Samsung Pay, joined as a product strategist for blockchain in May. Blockchain was removed from his LinkedIn profile after Business Insider talked to a Facebook spokesman.

And Evan Cheng recently was promoted to head of engineering for blockchain in June.

The duo joined existing Facebook employees including Kevin Weil, a VP of product, and James Everingham, head of engineering, blockchain.

Got $1k on the way to normiebase but it isn't moving fast enough REEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Forking stellar wtf? Fork YOU assholes

>Facebook
>SJW coin
Figures. I still won't touch XLM. I won't compromise principles for money.

Is one of your principles being a retard who listens to Jow Forums opinions? XLM is not a “SJW coin”

Ur thinkign of cardano and beta boy hotchkinson or whatever his gay name is

stay poor

Weird way to spell Holo.

SWJs are designed to be longed

Just went almost all-in at 3560 sats. If true Stellar will hit 1$ eoy

You poor deluded bastard.

Yes it is. it was founded by two SJW's and their mission statement is to take money from the rich and give to the poor by tricking you into thinking you're making an investment instead of donating to a charity

love feeling this comfy sitting on a yuge stack of XLM. I can't believe there are people on this board too brain dead to hold this

I have a feeling the pump is already over

Attached: stellarSJW.png (1335x891, 332K)

I can’t imagine them forking it, it’s just not as useful without being in the main net. I guess FB might want to fork so they can raise fees, but I feel like that can also be done through a token on the stellar network

How much are you holding, XLMbro?

used to have 25,000 stellar (along with 3 other coins) then I sold, got JUST'd by other investments and now I couldn't even afford to buy that back with my whole portfolio

When will you fags give this bullshit a rest?

incredible how xlm has insiders everywhere.

When you go the fuck back to plebbit where you came from. The truth isn't going to go away

Never because apparently Jow Forums is about letting personal opinions about aspects that don't matter get in the way of making money.

Oh I get it robinhood. I can buy fucking dogecoin but not stellar?!

>No shit. Jed is running the project. You know the same guy who created one of the first file sharing platforms, owned the largest bitcoin exchange, and created 40% of the top 5 crypto. I'd say he knows how to get shit done.

yeah that about sums it up user

Not holding XLM is as stupid as not holding BTC. Jesus do i need to spoon feed all of biz??

>Jed McCalleb

>Leaving his children was even harsher, with the kids’ mother placing the blame on the woman who had turned his formidable head. According to Ms. Burzlaff, Ms. Kim “made my ex choose between my kids and her, and he chose her.” This was not part of some unspecific rant. Ms. Burzlaff and Mr. McCaleb had already ended their relationship. But Mr. McCaleb was limiting his own contact with his children to “the point where [Ms. Kim] was going out of town so he was still trying to sneak in a time to see them.” Ms. Kim supposedly cancelled her trip “one hour before he was supposed to pick them up because she found out he was going to see them when she was going out of town.

>On May 22, 2014, Mr. McCaleb announced via a posting on Ripple Labs’ message board, “I plan to start selling all of my remaining XRP beginning in two weeks. …. So just fyi…. xrp sales incoming.” The announcement by a founder that he intended to dump 9 billion units of the currency he helped create was perceived as a threat by all who cared about Ripple Labs or held XRPs. It would be hard to imagine a founder and board member of a public company announcing he was going to flood the market by selling his stock; that would be an obvious and illegal attempt at market manipulation, not to mention ridiculously juvenile.

>Another person who worked at Ripple Labs at the time told the Observer: “Arthur and David had all these meetings with Jed and Joyce would fucking show up. Now this is Joyce just being … she’s out of the company at this point. This is Jed’s thing, when you’re in a private conversation with him all of a sudden Joyce is cc’d on this private conversation, even when the conversation includes the person saying, ‘I don’t want you to share this with Joyce.’ So not only does he disregard that request but he’s letting you know she fucking knows you don’t like her.”

keep trying user we know you're salty XRP isn't being listed on Coinbase and soon will be passed by XLM on CMC

They are already giving 150 xlm for people who registered on their south american exchange, all they had to do was confirm their facebook profile.

150 XLM Pog, THATS LIKE 0$

inplying that zuckerberg wouldn't put 7000 phenom coders on a project to create facebook coin

Give me honest realistic EOY for XLM.

People hand out dollars to homeless people, so the dollar is basically worthless.

$1.5 if we go on a bullrun

$2. Lightning Network will be implemented by then

>ripple cope posting

What wallets do you recommend to store lumens?

Vol dead. last chance to get out at 3650 sats. You've been warned.

>Volume means buying, or worse, it means more buying than selling
Your low iq is showing. Are you 56% by chance

That's uhhh, real good, user.
