    Ya, Binance supports VET. Don't know what state you are in though, so you may not be able to get Binance.

    Personally, I like VET. I'm going to put 1k or so into it for reasons I mentioned earlier in the thread: it's a logistics-focused crypto and I think it's an attractive coin for big business. Logistics is a huge deal. VET doesn't have a sexy name and it's focused on a sector a lot of retailers...

    Yep, 3/29. If I really believe the stuff I've been saying- that ETH could very possibly be 100k by 2023- I should just put my money where my mouth is and buy at $2100. At that point, who gives a shit between a $2000 or $2100 entry? Of course you should always try and get the lowest possible...

    You and me both dude. Annoying as fuck tbh. I called it pages back. Eth was still in the $1600s when I posted this.

    I'm waiting to buy back in myself. Wouldn't have sold what I had but I needed to switch trading platforms and I couldn't transfer my Eth directly (don't ask). Eth seems to drop precipitously every night at 3a my time. I'm not sure it's going back under 2k anytime soon (but who knows), so I'm...

    This was pretty much exactly my takeaway. Pomp is a great salesman, but Mike is a great debater. I think Mike won the debate, but I'm not convinced he won the argument. Mike brought up some really, really good points about a few serious concerns regarding BTC. There are absolutely...

    This narrative fits pretty well with a lot of the things I've been reading. Except I think you are underestimating how quickly ETH would go to 100k if 2.0 works. Again, feel free to say I'm smoking hopium (maybe I am) but look at BTC. BTC was around 10k in Sept 2020 and jumped to 60k by March...

    I don't know about you guys, but if I'm dropping a lot of money into something (like crypto), I like to hear a contrarian position from time to time. As in, "tell me why I'm wrong to like crypto." All Champaign and roses makes me suspicious. There are so many pumpers and hypers and echo...

    Definitely, definitely not the case. LEA's aren't going to advertise the fact that they can trace crypto, but they definitely can. Most of the time it's not worth the trouble (because it's not super easy), but don't make the mistake of thinking it can't be done. (Not directing this...

    I've always heard keep it off the exchange in cold storage (unless you are staking it). Binance was hacked a few years back and they got a couple hundred million in BTC. Apparently Binance has a really robust "insurance" system though, so anyone who lost BTC in the hack was immediately...

    That's what I'm banking on. It also seems to drop at night. Just need to time it right and maybe I can catch it back at around 2k.

    JFC, I need to buy back in ETH but the shit won't stop going up. Worst time in the world for me for it to go parabolic.

    It's not just that 1559 has the chance to turn issuance negative, but it also significantly incentivizes people to hold on to ether rather than sell it. The combination of factors that was laid out previously in this thread means people are absolutely going to be hoarding ETH. Again, the oil...

    You beat me to the math, but yeah. You also have to factor in taxes so reduce that by ~20%. But I'm not staking until the conversion of ETH 2.0 is done. After this July, I expect the price of ETH to go way, way up. I also expect the rewards for staking to go up as ETH moves to full PoS . I...

    Diversification is technically smart. Frankly, I don't think you can go wrong with ETH and BTC, however you split it. The other coins... I'm not so sure about. I think those are much more a straight gamble. I'm personally going to defy conventional wisdom and go balls deep in ETH with a...

    Curious- your rationale for owning both BTC and ETH is that BTC is sticking with PoW? Or did I misread you? I was planning on going all in on ETH so I'm curious.

    The risk of Eth 2.0 not working (or not working fast enough) is why some people are hedging with ADA and other coins that are already doing what Eth wants to do. But imo Eth 2.0 would have to fail pretty badly for any other those alt coins to have even a chance of catching up with Eth.

    Well, I don't insist on an analogy lol, but having one is nice for helping people understand Eth's value. I like the oil analogy because it captures Eth as a commodity, a store of value, and a utility item with a very practical purpose all at once. None of the other analogies really do that...

    Vechain- it's a coin that is geared towards logistics and supply chains. Supposedly makes shipping/transfers/deliveries much easier and accurate for companies. Walmart China just started using it but it's still dirt cheap (around .08). I could see it getting very very big, especially if other...

    I agree with the BTC is gold idea, but I'm not sure Eth is silver. I haven't really seen a good comparison for Eth yet imo. Someone in one of the threads that got posted here said investing in Eth now is like if you could have invested in the "Internet" in 1995. Definitely seems like Eth is...

    Binance fees are the lowest in the business as far as I could tell when I was investigating it last night. Like 500% less than coinbase, etc. Also gas fees are presumably going way down in the near future as far as Eth-based stuff goes. I'm personally planning to stake my Eth after 2.0. Im...

    Binance looks like it has the least expensive fees by a good margin. Going to give them a shot.

    All NFT transactions are automatically done in Eth. You can convert it to USD (or whatever) after, but initially you pay/get paid in Eth when you transact NFTs. (One of the many reasons you should be investing in Eth). On a side note, I haven't checked in on this thread in a while. They are...

    I believe it. I talked to a rep at Fidelity for more than 30 minutes about various options regarding the different kind of IRAs and tax stuff. Not only was the guy obviously American and really friendly, but he was smart and knew his shit. I kept expecting him to say "you'll have to ask the...

    I know this has been asked before on this thread, but what platforms are people using to buy/sell/hold their crypt these days? I'm trying to change platforms. I don't plan to do much trade- mainly buy and sell Eth. I've looked at kraken, coinbase, and crypto.com. The fee structures are all...

    Thus my "one way or the other" comment. There's several scenarios that could go down. I absolutely don't want to shit up the thread with politics, but even if the filibuster doesn't go away, it could change. For example, they are talking about making all filibusters be "standing" filibusters...

    I think it's possible they will get legalization through Congress one way or the other, yeah. Sentiment about weed has been changing rapidly on both sides of the isle- though most of the hold outs are still on the right. Put it like this- I think federal weed legalization is inevitable, it's...

    I'm no expert on Government, but I'd imagine they could get a legalization bill passed through Congress but not with a veto-proof majority. Which means that Biden would absolutely factor in to any legalization effort.

    Yep. I've made some MJ investments this year, but I'm actually growing a little bearish on weed stuff after that news. If it was up to Harris, I'm sure we'd see legalized weed pretty quickly. But from what I've read, Biden still has the 1980's view on MJ stuck in his brain. Biden is one of...
