Yea, you didn't get it.
Gold is a store of value, Bitcoin is a store of value.

There is nothing intrinsically valuable about a bitcoin if you are going that route. They are only valued because they are limited and secure. Gold has actual value as a physically useful commodity.
Just got dat hardware wallet. Might make my move on some XRP, NEO and IOTA
How many of you cats have cashed out before? I read it's a pain in the ass to get funds in $. Is it true?
What did you get? I find these ten page tutorials nauseating. Write down this. Now write down that. Now write down this other thing.

lol... if you buy XRP... just give me your money instead.
Now's a good time to buy BTC, guys. You can quote me on that and you can bet on it.
And you're riding on a hype train. Fact of the matter is that blockchain has been around for nearly a decade, and has yet to see mass adoption. Having potential does not mean it will realize that potential. All newer technologies will have a honeymoon phase before reality sets in. You can't predict what you'll have for dinner same time next week let alone currency of the future, and to declare blockchain the future is a pretty bold claim.
Blockchain is subjected to the same human error, tampering and inefficiencies as any centralized system.

Ledger Nano S. Seems like it holds the largest variety of different coins, and the ones I specifically wanted

1903: “The horse is here to stay but the automobile is only a novelty – a fad.” — President of the Michigan Savings Bank advising Henry Ford’s lawyer, Horace Rackham, not to invest in the Ford Motor Company.
1943: “… there is a world market for maybe five computers.” - IBM Chairman Thomas Watson
Those sound like you to me.
Yes it does. You will need to pay sales tax for transactions, which means the currency you pay must be legal tender. The scalability of cryptocurrency do not allow them to perform transaction at such a large scale.
Yeah those Tulip bulbs sure held up their value eh? The Yukon Gold Rush made every miner filthy rich no? That Dot Com party didn't end for you?1876: "The Americans have need of the telephone, but we do not. We have plenty of messenger boys." — William Preece, British Post Office.
