The market: mehhh

Eth is the most profitable thing to mine right now. https://whattomine.com/

Gonna try out different pools after I get paid out. Other than that I’ll just keep it in eth. If eth 2.0 crashes the video card market I’m gonna buy a few thousand dollars worth of cards and speculative mine stuff for fun.

Almost halfway to being paid out on 2miners, at $41. My estimation is approximately 50 cents of power a day. Not half bad for only part time mining in 9 days really, with only one GPU. Fuck, I wish I'd bought a fat stack of video cards last year.

I bought $11 from a local coin store, because why not? Just a little over spot. 1 oz silver American Eagle, and a 1/4 ounce gold American Eagle. Nifty little things. I also ordered a full ounce gold Krugerrand he said would come in next week so I can play Lethal Weapon, and 1 each of silver...

Leslie Jones was the best part? 🤔

Thanks as always. I'll do a bit of a combination on these. Will see how the market pans out the next few days to see if I can get in on a bit of a dip or not. A lot of my 401k money is unallocated at the moment.

Should I care about one vs the other? Should some be in mutual funds and some ETF? Are you all in on one or the other? I’m bad at this stuff.

Apparently we should have all bought AMC three weeks ago. I have a watch list of about 50 stocks and it’s the absolute only thing green today.

What Fidelity funds are good for the 401k at this point? I have a decent amount of money sitting in BrokerageLink. Retirement, say, 20 years out. Sane but maybe a little aggressive. Note however unfortunately my company doesn’t allow full control of things and I’m limited.

Exactly, I don’t always have access to my desktop or laptop, and the mobile app is so fucking clunky sometimes I don’t even bother doing things I otherwise would have. On Robinhood I could at least with great agility trade things quickly and easily with a very clean layout.

I know we’ve discussed this before, but god DAMN does Fidelity’s mobile UI (which isn’t even a UI, just webpages) suck shit. It’s really obnoxious. Can a company of this magnitude not do better and get with the times. It’s really pathetic. I’m not going to use Robinhood again, but on a daily...

Not make a profit, I can do that! Good stuff, thanks. I’m definitely going to research this.

Ohhh, interesting, big difference between revenue and profit obviously. That sounds pretty cool something small worked into something bigger and sounds enjoyable. I’ll really have to examine this idea some and do reading. I’ve got spare time during the day that would be cool if I could profit on.

Got it. Yeah I mean, I wasn’t at all thinking of it as a magic thing, I realize you have to show profit x years out of x years and all that. I am not stupid enough (or maybe I’m not smart enough) to try and grift the IRS. I just meant legally writing off what is possible to do so. I make right...

I’ve been thinking about starting some kind of low effort business from home to reap tax benefits. I really need to look into that more. Interesting idea.

I still say its bullshit stimulus doesn’t go up to $200,000 or so. If you live in a HCOL area you’re not ballin’ all over the place in your yacht.

Oh cool, full voice acting now eh. I was thinking about replaying this anyway so I definitely will after this.

I bought some gold earlier this week, good timing. I don’t even think precious metals are an amazing way to spend your money vs. stocks but fuck are they fun to play with.

What’s with all these Asian owned art companies skyrocketing 50-200 percent in the last week or two? Does this have to do with the NFT shit?

I read a little bit about all of that too, but I don't pretend to know much about the history and effects of all of it. If Ethereum moves to 2.0 in months like you said could happen, and causes a massive drop in video card prices (people selling off their rigs) I'm gonna buy some up and...

That’s my understanding of it. Though that full implementation from what I’m reading will likely take a couple of years (people keep bandying about 2023.) At first there will be a hybrid stake / POW then full stake. Then it’ll have to be onto other coins for mining.

I’m using 2miners still just because it’s what I started with. They’ll pay out at 0.05 I believe, which is like $90. Gonna stick with them at least until I get paid out.

So last Wednesday as mentioned I’ve been fucking around letting my computer mine ETH while I’m asleep / working / at the lady’s house. Probably 15 hours a day minus one day where it crashed and I didn’t notice. I’ve made $21.79 gross money so far. Probably a couple dollars of power so say...

Dayum, AMC up to $14.50. Almost getting up to the 15 and change I sold at in January. How is Astra Zeneca not taking a shit today.

AMC along with foxy boxing (up 18 percent this morning) are key economic markers of growth. Same metric they used in 1933.

What could we do with puts here... Gotta say it is pretty amazing.

Yeah, that’s real retarded, sir. Unbelievable people keep buying this shit near the top. Does make me wish I’d bought some when it went back down sub $5 after I sold for $15.

Fair enough! I don't think I'd want to day trade as a job. Sounds way too stressful for me unless I already had enough money to say I was retired, and I certainly wouldn't pretend to know enough about it to do so. I started playing around with stocks in 2006 myself (still have my original...

No. Just a hobby. I was “day trading” a while and went on vacation to Hawaii last month and haven’t done it much since. I bought CPUH units right before that to park some cash. I’m lucky in that I have a day job making around $150k a year depending that doesn’t even require me to work that much...

CPUH is splitting units in like 2 odd weeks. May want to hold on for warrants if nothing else? I dunno. It's going to be available on several more trading platforms (including Robinhood) after this, so it may raise up a decent bit. I'm staying in it at almost $40,000.

Exactly, that's a big piece of it. You can always get some of it back. I had this computer built in 2019 for gaming with a 5700 XT and I think the video card is worth more now than what I bought it for. Huge WTF. Wonder when they're ever gonna catch up to demand.

Most likely. I think that applies to a lot of this. In many cases if you're speculating you may as well just spend the capital on buying it outright. Takes the fun out of it, though.

But muh Roaring Kitty!

True enough, I was thinking about that...I saw people talking about Raven for instance. Could be a fun speculative hobby to farm it (or something else) now and then hope it skyrockets in coming years. I was reading you'd need around 3,000 sqft of solar panels to power 10 video cards or...

Check out my sweet earnings for around 15 hours of mining! $4.57. If my calculations are right based off my power bill and estimates for power usage this has cost me about 30-40 cents, if I'm doing that right (who the fuck knows.) Rather pointless but amusing. Knowing what (little) I know now...

It was more me just fucking around than anything. I’m sure it’s overall a waste of time by now. It looks like from what I’m reading if you haven’t got in yet the boat has been missed. From my understanding, the problem with GPU mining is once Ethereum 2.0 comes out which uses staking, there...

Is anything worth mining these days? I have a 25 percent discount on power, if that helps the equation. Or is it kinda a waste of time unless you have free power (ie borrowed.) Edit: I just downloaded gminer, I have a 5700XT. This is what it's telling me: If my calculations are correct...
