Literally all of that applies to BTC, I have no idea what you're talking about. HODL = don't sell your Bitcoin until I can dump mine.

Yeah, there's a lot more people getting rich off of $SHIB and $DOGE than one dude setting it up. Kind of like how Bitcoin is a meme coin, but tons of people are getting rich on it. Is it a scam? Charlie Munger thinks so.

Hard to say that when $SHIB and $DOGE are minting millionaires.

I've been following @frombroke2bags -- he's pretty funny, but after this latest $SHIB pump he lost it because he sold $1.7 million worth of it for a few thousand so now all he does is shill BSC coins and ask for feet pics. Still mostly funny, I suppose, has a huge grudge against Vitalik for...

Look at how fucking alpha Jason Teutsch is here. Button down shirt and sandals -- only way this could be better is if he was wearing socks.

The PoS merge is happening later this year, and I'm not quite sure what the progress is on sharding specifically right now. Polygon becoming ensconced in the Ethereum ecosystem is really pretty meaningless at this stage of adoption, as we have no idea what retail investors will consider...

It's really when sharding comes to Ethereum, which was supposed to be before the PoS merge, but is now happening after due to viable L2 solutions being developed. Sidechains like Polygon will, imo, be totally subverted by an Ethereum sharding regime that offers the L1 security, composability...

My operating theory is first mover advantage for an Ethereum scaling solution. It's really the only L2 solution up and running right now, I suspect it will remain strong through this summer but zkSync and Optimism are both technically superior solutions that may end up stealing the show.

Polygon is essentially an Ethereum scaling solution -- I mean, it's definitely trying to be more than that, but at the end of the day it's a MoreVP chain with substantial Ethereum bridges. It's not a bad play at all in this environment.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Ethereum scaling solutions be the next big thing this cycle, tbh. Lots of new rollups are coming out this summer with obvious product fit in a high gas-fee Ethereum environment.

Ohh what's that shape called it looks like regurgitated spaghetti but it could be rocky mountain toes I suppose.

XRP once upon a time looked like it had some worthwhile tech even if it was "semi-centralized," but it turns out it was just a giant pump and dump scheme and centralization is anathema to blockchain design.

Still have like 6 months left on this bull run, imo.

It works as well as any of the other centralized exchanges, but they all suck in their own unique and special ways.

The safest thing to do is wait it out, but if you select the transaction through the wallet you should be able to speed it up. There's no guarantee you will speed it up enough, however. Set up an account on an exchange, like Coinbase or Gemini, and start reading a shitload of stuff about...

2.0 isn't directly related to improving the UX of Ethereum -- it brings increased transactions per second and very fast (almost instant) block finality so it will be easier to build stuff on it that does improve the UX. Right now it feels cumbersome because the community is still hooking...

Ethereum powers the decentralized applications using its protocol, making it much more like a commodity. It's not a barrier, but rather the value layer to the next iteration of the internet. You can use it to power non-fungible tokens, stablecoins, DeFi applications like borrowing and lending...

Yeah, you could pay him in a meme coin if he believed in the meme enough like he does Bitcoin. There is almost no technical difference between Bitcoin and Dogecoin. I suspect RSK will go the way of Lightning - almost 0 adoption after years of being live on mainnet with developers telling you...

No, I will keep laughing at a bunch of crypto boomers thinking they struck digital gold but really it's just a meme coin because you can't do anything with it except trade it and tell other people to trade it.

Anyone doing anything with their Bitcoin other than sitting on it like a meme coin?

I'm consolidating all my bags to Ethereum and Truebit in preparation for the summer, couple of coins left I'm waiting for a better price on.

Ethereum has no serious competition, it is already the platform on which the next iteration of the internet will be built.

Cardano is in no way a competitor to Eth -- that would require smart contracts.

EIP-1559 implements BASEFEE + associated ETH burn which is in the London hard fork scheduled in July. Proof of Stake is coming later this year, the Ethereum website has some great info on it: The merge | ethereum.org

Ethereum is a distributed state machine, i.e. the blockchain runs and maintains the state of the Ethereum Virtual Machine. I'm not sure what you think the juggalo coin can do that Ethereum can't.

Good luck convincing the Bitcoin community that Proof of Stake is the future. Pretty sure they'd rather let the coin die.

Proof of Stake coins, e.g. Ethereum 2.0/ADA, centralized coins e.g. BSC/XRP, any PoW coins which commit to green energy mining only, e.g. that one I forget the name of right now because that shit is so stupid.

He's going to each DEX where these dog coins are and draining the pools of their ETH by dumping massive amounts of the dog coin to them. What a fucking alpha move.

Dogecoin was forked from Luckycoin, which was a fork from Litecoin that had variable block rewards. Litecoin itself was forked from Bitcoin, it had reduced block times and used Scrypt for its hashing algorithm vs BTC's SHA-256 -- this was to make it ASIC resistant. Shortly after Dogecoin's...

Vitalik is rug pulling $AKITA and $SHIB right now, fucking glorious: https://etherscan.io/address/0xab5801a7d398351b8be11c439e05c5b3259aec9b

That wallet is Robinhood cold storage, and nothing I've written about ADA is invalid. Dogecoin could very well be the next Bitcoin, and Bitcoin may very well end up dying in the next bullrun -- their prices are built totally upon speculation. Uncensorable/unstoppable transactions have had 12+...

I personally don't think programmers are going to jump at the chance to use Haskell to code smart contracts, if in fact they ever do get deployed on ADA mainnet, and Dogecoin is as legitimate as Bitcoin. If anything, Dogecoin has proven the security and decentralization afforded by PoW...

I dunno, a smart contract platform with no smart contracts for six years certainly sounds like a meme! Charles is a self important fuckwad who thinks Dogecoin is going to ruin cryptocurrency, but what it comes down to for me is that ADA is a direct competitor for ETH, and ETH clearly has the...

Ahh, I see you're on that memecoin craze with the ADA investment.

I am, not quite a millionaire yet. Uniswap token news: Uniswap's UNI should become an oracle token, says Vitalik Buterin

Kind of, but Uniswap is a protocol. Cryptoeconomics is the field of study you're looking for, it's not quite analogous.

Doge is only uncapped in the sense that there is no "maximum limit" of coins that will ever be minted. It mints a finite number of coins per day, 14.4 million, which means that over time its inflation rate approaches 0%. Currently, it's 3.9% inflation rate compared to BTC's ~2.0% and...

I've got a few tokens. Uniswap is the beating heart of decentralized finance, but there's no real use for the token yet so the price action is kinda meh. There may never be a use for the token, but I'm betting/pretending that there is and that I got in before that.

You can buy $TRU directly from the Truebit OS, and the team encourages buying just enough to reward Solvers and Verifiers (cover gas fees, make it worth their effort). Currently the OS minting price is $1.70ish (denominated in ETH it's 0.000422618906349803), so theoretically the price should...
