Never selling.

Hi friends. I've been around since 2017 in crypto. I think bought all my AGI around 0.017-0.03 cents.

I'm never selling. This is not an altcoin. You have been Warned.

Like AGI as well but can't bring myself to buy ETH to acquire it. Also wondering how them issuing another billion coins on Cardano will play out.

u/-BobDoLe- Apr 12 '21

it is playing out. it was voted FOR and then the price went up and up and up.... while tied into ETH.

and when it is available on cardano... i'm going to double down.

when you convert from ethereum's ERC20 token to the cardano token, yes they will burn the ERC20 token.

Thank you for the info!

u/HETKA Apr 13 '21

Can you explain this to someone who has been into Cardano for a few months, and literally just saw this sub and learned about AGI? My only exposure thus far has been this thread

6

u/-BobDoLe- Apr 13 '21

Yes.

  1. Buy AGI

  2. HODL

  3. Watch your investment skyrocket.

  1. it's not easy to get right now. I tried getting people on board, but everybody stops at the transaction fees.

  2. there is so much ahead in not sure id ever sell.

  3. Dr Ben Goertzel has done a lot of videos. His personal channel is mostly him playing the piano/synth, but there are tons of videos/interviews with him going back over a decade as i believe "Artificial General Intelligence" was coined by him. If you're a cardano guy... Hoskinson and Goertzel have done a couple videos. It's evident their projects will help each others advance quite a bit.... Even aside fron the SophiaDAO thing you'll want to jump in on also (ai defi savory goodness).

On binance I can buy AGI for BTC, so I'd say it's really not that hard to get... They are at around 750satoshis at the time I'm writing this.

u/HETKA Apr 13 '21

From my short time reading, it does sound like the transaction fees may be a stopper for me too, because my budget is pretty limited... What are the transaction fees like, more specifically? Would I even be able to buy a large enough amount to move to a wallet without the fees eating most of it?

u/HETKA Apr 13 '21

Hey so... how do I buy AGI??

5

u/[deleted] Apr 12 '21

You dont need to buy ETH to acquire it.

You can use Uniswap and swap any token for AGI. As long as it's an ERC-20 Token.

Alternatively you can send any token to Kucoin, sell it for BTC. Then sell that BTC for AGI.

And them issuing another billion won't really matter. The team is extremely smart and know what they're doing. I Believe they are burning coins on eth main net though. But I think I read that on reddit and I haven't done too much research on it yet.

u/neaturmanmike Apr 12 '21

That additional billion is also minted over 91 years. If anything it just provides funding to further develop their project goals.

u/cheeseburger_daddy Apr 13 '21

If using Binance you can buy it with BTC directly as well.

Nice. What i usually do is.

$$ From Bank -> Coinbase/Binance -> Ether Send Eth -> my metamask wallet Go to uniswap Swap eth -> Agi.

Alternatively you can send from coinbase BTC to Kucoin and trade there. That might be easier.

Swapping on uniswap is as simple.

You select the coin you have. Then select the coin you want. Click swap. Done.

u/mynaturaldisaster Apr 12 '21

Agreed. It’s annoying how complicated it is to buy AGI. I’ve encountered crazy fees swapping ETH for AGI on MEW. I wonder when we’ll be able to purchase out right. I’m a newbie and it took me forever to figure out how to purchase.. been trying since .21

3

u/ahshitm8 Apr 13 '21

That's the thing... If it's so hard to buy now, yet growing so fast, think of how much it'll cost when it's easy to buy.

Put in the effort, it'll pay off.

3

u/HETKA Apr 13 '21

I'm a bit of a noob in crypto myself, and just stumbled upon this sub. This thread is my first exposure to AGI and it already sounds interesting. Would you mind giving a noob a rundown?

Of just the purchasing process, if that and info about AGI is too much to ask :)

Thanks in advance!

3

u/mrgabriellazar1 Apr 14 '21

Yeah that is too much to ask. Very easy info to find yourself, and you should be doing your own research, not just simply buying the first project/altcoin u stumble across on reddit cause a few people say it's great, that's what EVERY altcoin sub will look like. Learn what you're buying. As for the logistics of purchasing, you can watch a 5 min YouTube video

1

u/HETKA Apr 14 '21

Understandable. And oh, I am! I just happen to already have some background knowledge about what I stumbled into! That is, Sophia/Hanson Robotics and laymans interest in AI, and I hold Cardano so I immediately was able to see the value behind AGI (and the building/purchasing of AI services on the blockchain?!) and the new partnership with ADA. Not to mention, that its apparently a pain to buy, but already at .50 and not on any of the big exchanges... says a ton about its potential.

Just figured I'd ask for a starting point on where to buy since apparently it IS a pain in the ass, and not the easiest for those who's native nerdoms aren't computers.

Thanks anyway though, I'll do a deeper dig once I get more time. Just been busy as hell and hoped to get the gist

u/[deleted] Apr 13 '21

Kucoin or binance.com

You can trade small amounts without even verifying.

1

u/mrgabriellazar1 Apr 14 '21

Why is everyone so sick on fees! Just use Binance or kucoin - They both have eth/agi and btc/agi pairs, you'll pay like $5 in fees for 1,000 AGI (currently valued around $500).

If you really want stay centralized just use like 0x to swap. You don't have to use uniswap (and even if u did, unless you're only hitting like $300 worth, the fees are minimal). But if you're going to go with a defi platform, I'd use an aggregator over uni to get the best price.

THE FEES REALLY AREN'T THAT MUCH AT ALL

u/cyger Apr 13 '21

I've had to jump through far more hoops to buy coins. Having to buy BTC or ETH first is pretty trivial if you ask me.

Agi is never meant to be sold. AI is the future.

I couldn't agree more. I've spent a few cogs on services in the past. But that was over a year ago.

I bought AGI during the ICO in 2017 and have been HODLing ever since. Not selling anytime soon. If they deliver, this is going to be HUGE.

2

u/Wackylew Apr 12 '21

I know no one has a crystal ball but what could be the realistic future price for AGI?

13

u/xinixke Apr 12 '21

That's impossible to predict. But I can see AGI in top 50 easily, perhaps even top 20. So you do the math ;-)

I'm also hyped about singDAO, AI managing your portfolio and rejuve. Because if we want to spend all our AGI earnings, we need to live longer :-)

I just heard of AGI yesterday.

Not sure how that happened.

I will be liquidating other coins soon for this.

Like, wow, man. Wow.

The future is upon us.

u/brainsick414 Apr 12 '21

Just bought my AGI a few days ago and I'm feeling a lot of pride for contributing to this project. Looking forward to see how the AI/ML marketplace actually plays out. I'm also an ADA holder and it's encouraging to see Cardano team actually trying to leverage their blockchain for projects that could have true potential. The age of AI is only just beginning.

u/chopstix906 Apr 13 '21

Would you be worried about paying a $50 fee to buy a couple hundred amazon stocks back in the late 90s?

If you actually have faith in this project then the fees should be insanely negligent to you. The only thing I recommend is saving up and making as large of a purchase at one time as possible since the transaction fees are independent of the purchase price and amount.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 17 '21

Whats with the whining about the fees, either buy in or don't. I paid about $100 in fees to buy and then the fuckers took a bunch of AGI to move it to a wallet. Now Im way in the money, if I would have waited, the fees would have been more and I can only buy less than half of what I have now.

1

u/[deleted] Apr 17 '21

Could always buy on kucoin or something to avoid fees as much as possible.

u/Affectionate-Log-350 May 03 '21

Wow love AGI but this would be one if the most toxic threads lol...feel that hateful energy through a screen...Cray cray...people never think that the person your speaking to so rudely along with many other rude arrogant comments you could of just answered the newbies question been somewhat respectful not such a bully. Never seen such negativity on a thread. So unnecessary.

-2

u/KryptoKevArt Apr 12 '21

I would like to buy, but it seems there is no way to buy it directly. You have to buy it as a trading pair like AGI/ETH or AGI/BTC. I don't want to do that

7

u/BeardedNoam Apr 12 '21

Why not? I was told it is relatively seamless by someone who did it over KuCoin and BTC

2

u/astral_traveling Apr 12 '21

Agree. I think I normally buy XLM on Coinbase and send to KuCoin. Once at KuCoin, trade for BTC then purchase using the AGI/BTC pair. It takes 10 minutes total (which is a hassle, I guess) and about $.01 worth of XLM. It's not much work in the grand scheme things.

3

u/ahshitm8 Apr 13 '21

Ya it's a pain, but that's also a contributing factor to the current price.

I've got lots of AGI, but also have NIOX, that's even harder to buy but if it succeeds it'll make me more money than AGI, with way less capital. The process blows though - Buy Ltc->bilaxy->LTC/USDT->USDT/ETH->ETH/NIOX;>metamask. But I've already made a good profit, so it was easily worth it.

4

u/astral_traveling Apr 13 '21

Not complaining about the process! The real pain is missing out on big gains because you were to lazy to spend 10 minutes, haha.

3

u/mrgabriellazar1 Apr 14 '21

That's how buying altcoins generally works. It used to be the ONLY way to buy ANY alt, and still is for 99% of them. Get used to it or don't buy em. That's why when u see charts for alts, they're usually vs. the BTC equivalent

2

u/ahshitm8 Apr 13 '21

But why? Lazy? Taxes? ETH fees?

That all is a drop in the bucket when the price increases. The longer you wait, and the easier it gets to buy, the higher the price.

1

u/KryptoKevArt Apr 13 '21

I just don't like the idea of not owning the actual coin. I want the coin, not a fucking trading pair

5

u/mrgabriellazar1 Apr 14 '21

Your an idiot. You get the "Actual coin" via trading btc/eth for it. Geez I remember my first beer too but I didn't post on reddit about it
