I know I had my finger on the button and bought as soon as news turned good. And I'm up about 12% as of now.

Might want to wait for this afternoon's announcement.

Just blipped again. Unlikely but I wonder if someone (or some group) is trying to trigger a super high limit sell in order to rip off an exchange.

Lots of charts fucked up atm. Yahoo shows BTC dropped 30%. Weird that charts from multiple different platforms are all fucked up at the same time.

Briefly, tether has become a linchpin upon which the entire crypto market rests. It's been revealed recently that tether might be largely smoke and mirrors. Even if it's not smoke and mirrors, if a substantial portion of the tether holders were to suddenly decide that they no longer had faith...

The Tether issue is the biggest concern I have for crypto as a whole. It's the main thing I think that could crash the whole market. If that's what this is (big "if") things could go way down from here.

All this great news and crypto is dropping like a rock lol. Ive had a Matic buy set for 1.60 for several days hoping it would trigger. Wondering if I should lower it a bit.

This is why rugpulls work.

All that stuff exists now, so I'm assuming you mean web3 would make it easier/more prolific. Identity tracking is pretty easy now, so I'm not sure how web 3 would change that in a meaningful way. And I don't really know what you mean about social credit system. As far as micro paywalls, I DO I...

We're at that point now. Either it will get much easier or it won't happen at all.

Just speculation, but I'm kind of envisioning a future where web 3 is built on the ethereum platform, but scaled up several layers. In other words, everyday people don't use ethereum, they use a designated scaling solution like matic. Whales and big DAOs are the only ones who actually make...

The only people that give a shit about the "BTC vs. ETH" arguments are the maxis on either side. Most people have accepted that they will continue to coexist (like they do now) and have moved on.

I'm definitely not an expert, but I think the short answer (and someone can correct me if I'm wrong), is that if the value of Matic was to stay precisely static relative to the coin's circulating supply between now and August 2022 then adding more coins would reduce the value of the coins you...

Yeah, I've figured out giving high end consumables is easy and a win. And you can give the same stuff every year and your relatives are still fucking delighted to get it. I get my brother a bottle of this every year: Blanton's Single Barrel Bourbon 750ml For the rest of my family members, I...

Don't get me wrong. It's pretty clear to me Web3 WILL be built on ETH (it's already being built on ETH); I just think it's not going to be quite as egalitarian as Web3 proponents are suggesting. I just think we are moving to a situation where we replace tech corporations with DAOs. Also...

Maybe? I've got questions and I'm not sure anyone will really know what it ends up looking like until it happens. I think your point is a valid concern though. I'll tell you why. The twitter thread I linked a few posts ago is a really good/clear explanation about the ideas behind Web3. That...

The entire crypto industry is unproven and risky when it comes to long-term viability. Saying POS is unproven means very little when comparing it to the crypto industry as a whole. Also, ETH hasn't fully transitioned to 2.0 yet (though it remains to be seen if it will do anything for gas...

Yeah, I mean most things about crypto are untested/unproven at scale, and the scale is increasing all the time. It's emergent tech, just saying something is unproven doesn't mean much. I haven't heard any logical explanation as to why it wouldn't function as well as PoW. I'm still remaining...

Yes, I saw you don't like pos. Ok I'll bite: why don't you like pos?

It's the foundation for Web3. Doesn't get much bigger than that. Edit: Web3

Matic was actually exactly what I was thinking of when I wrote 2. It's been on one hell of a run recently, and I don't personally chase runners, but I don't really see it slowing down in the near future, so...

First question you'll want to answer is are you looking to buy: 1. A very risky low-cap shit coin in the hope that you choose the right one for a future pump group so you can turn 1k into 1,000,000 practically overnight. You would be doing this with the understanding that if the coin doesn't...

ETH not really in a dip, but you might want to buy it anyway. There are less "safe" coins that you could buy that might give you a better return though- which is what I am assuming you are asking.

Yeah, apparently Wright indicated that once he "won this case" he would move coins and donate the majority of them to charity. Well, he won the case, so we'll see. Would be really interesting if he was Satoshi. I'm not sure if that would be good or bad for BTC price (and crypto as a whole).

You can file for extensions any year, but late March is when the normal market usually gets the selloff dip.

Yeah, I can see why someone would want to avoid crossing that line in the first place, but I personally crossed it a long time ago, so that wouldn't matter to me.

Not saying you don't get good swings on ETHE, especially in situations like you mention. But I've got ETH and ETHE next to each other on my watch list and ETH swings more, percentage wise. For example, ETH often bottoms out (or sometimes tops out) in the middle of the night in the US, thanks...

If you're going to swing Ethereum that doesn't seem like a bad way to do it. I have ETHE in my retirement account (because you can't buy actual Ethereum with an IRA yet). Because ETHE is subject to stock market hours, it ends up being a good deal less volatile than ETH. This means you could...

Don't know if it's still going to be around by Sunday night, much less Monday. But who knows I was going to buy more matic but it's already creeping back up to the $2 mark. Will probably buy more anyway.

Matic dropped all the way to 1.55 and immediately bounced back up to 1.85. Seems like this was just a coordinated whale buy.

I have no idea how low this is going to ultimately end up dipping, but I'm 100% sure crypto will be back at aths in the near future.

Doesn't hurt to sent them that low, as long as you are ok with missing a dip if it doesn't hit.

Yeah this was the sale you were waiting for.

GDI Rajaah what did I ever do to you?

Polygon zkrollup news 🔥🔥🔥. Have a feeling poly is going to be one of those coins that jumps from $1ish to $100ish really fast. Of course I'm biased but...

Nothing says Christmas like murdered children.

Artificially induced difficulty? As opposed to what? Organic, non-man made difficulty? You guys crack me up.

Yeah, I've seen the "well, actually, EQ wasn't that difficult" trend over the last few years. I strongly suspect half the people trying to retcon EQ into an "actually not that difficult" game either didn't play 1999-2000 EQ or don't remember what it was like. People jump on P99 or some other...

Seems right to me. Both Matic and Tru were outpacing the market just prior to the Thanksgiving dip. I think it's less that Tru is "immune" to the dip, it's just that what would have been a really big bump for Tru turned into something like a wash thanks to the market downturn. As ETH becomes...
