Try trading on-chain using decetralized smart contracts and no middle man. You can't even know what your exact enter/exit price is let alone what the fee is. 100 year old tax laws applying to crypto is dumb but our government is run by incompetents so here we are.

I saw a Ziz video where he says 'I never met anybody who didn't like heist' and I couldn't tell if he was sarcastic. Thanks for clarifying

I agree that the higher the market cap, the more stable it becomes. But we're a long way off from the level of stability required to displace the world reserve currency. The downside to a very open and unregulatable monetary system like bitcoin is that trading shenanigans will cause large...

American oligarchs have been selling out the nation's interests for decades. They don't give a fuck so long as they get richer. China didn't steal our jobs; they were given our jobs. We trained their workforce. The anti-China propaganda is used to shift blame off the oligarchy and on to them...

PoP is launching in a few weeks and this thread's discussion is about how borderline racist you can get away with when naming characters and guilds. How nice. The answer is no, they don't take this kind of thing well over there and would likely force a rename. If it wouldn't fly in P99's...

I bought several crusader orbs recently and ninja keeps saying they're ~77 (which is 0.5ex) but every time I check they are 0.6 or 0.7 with no price fixers. When they were at 0.6 I didn't see many at that price. Never seen one for 0.5 lately. The last one I bought was priced in chaos for 100c...

poe.ninja's prices seem off even for currency

Tether is the original stablecoin and stablecoins pegged to the US dollar are what will keep the USD relevant in a future where America is not the largest economy in the world because people are not going to keep using paper as money for much longer. The feds should be thanking Bitfinex for...

Hobart bungled the exp group bonus code when he tried to implement the late Ykesha era group bonus on Al'Kabor around 1-2 years after the server launched. The massive bonus starting at 4+ group members is simply an implementation error on his part, not some era accurate feature. That is why I...

Has it been proven that annul orbs are unbiased random? I've had annul orbs brick my item every single attempt after ~15 tries and 3 times out of 4 it takes the life roll on items with 4-6 mods. I'm like 6 times in a row it's taken the life roll. This has to be struck by lightning level of...

Is the converted damage mitigated by suppression? Scorgue maps doing elemental damage when shifting was not. If it is that's kind of sick

From what I've read on the wiki, the math on armor and evasion force you to hard stack them otherwise they're near useless. Mixing both seems like a bad idea. I'm doing an evasive build and my tankiness went way up after getting a Watcher's Eye with 'chance to evade attack hits while affected...

I've encountered some mobs that were immune to chaos damage and were unkillable to me. Not from a map mod though. Oddly they had 'vulnerable to chaos damage' on them. I assume it's a bug. I find these from expeditions, but may have found this in delve once as well. Is there a reason to do...

Half my deaths are obvious. Generally those deaths are in 150+ scourge T16 maps. It's the other deaths I scratch my head over. Couple days ago I died after an apparent ice nova from a blue box. Can those hit that hard? I have 100% spell suppression with 53% mitigation. The corpse explosion...

I'd pay $10 just for a feature that told me why I died in this game

Multi-sig and timelocked contracts (both usable on BTC right now) kindof fixes this, although you need to somehow convince the robber that you cannot access your funds. Also see Casa | The Most Secure Storage for your Bitcoin

CFTC settles with Tether, makes them pay a stupid fine for 'misleading claims' to save face. So much for Tether FUD. https://tether.to/statement-on-tethers-settlement-with-the-cftc/

No? I have a small amount of money in a credit union for my debit card; much more in Coinbase and the vast majority in Electrum+Exodus+Metamask wallets. Holding cash is for suckers. Rich people don't hold cash. Why do you think they're buying up anything and everything with the free money...

Banks can go fuck themselves

SHIB's decimal place is entirely for psychology and is part of SHIB's scam. They want suckers to buy it instead of BTC because 'it's cheap'. Doge was the 'poor man's crypto' until a new poor man's crypto came along and now Doge holders have bags. Any idiot can make a ERC20 token leveraging...

die bears

they can fix it by adding a few path nodes so NPCs don't run backwards when you move over 5 feet

I doubt the SEC knows what a security is

Bans provide a need for DeFi and decentralized tokens in the first place, so may end up increasing the value of the networks. Is this irony? China's bans are on exchanges, and holding tokens is still allowable. People will just find other ways to trade and indeed DeFi services are seeing an...

'DeFi in name only' is true for many/most 'DeFi' projects but not all. Sovryn for example has a web site you can activate your wallet on and transact with like most places, but you don't need to use the website to interact with the contracts. If you have technical ability you can interact with...

Rampage and Flurry were Velious additions. AoE/Wild Rampage was a PoP addition.

Not all countries tax capital gains. Some countries have tax law that isn't as ridiculously onerous as the United States. I wish they'd cancel all taxes except real estate property tax and slap large sales taxes on luxury goods/services and that's it. The government will appraise all land...

I was a competitive raider so I understand why FTE can be thrilling to some people. I'd prefer some kind of hybrid system so a friendly competitiveness can still exist. However emus are locked in expansions for years if not in perpetuity, and that makes rotating content make more sense...

Collectables were always a shit investment. The only collectables that are worth anything are the ones made from before anybody had any notion to save and preserve them. That's why they are rare, and that rarity is why they are valuable. When I was buying comic books in the 90s, they all had...

NFTs are often compared to say, baseball cards and comic books. But collectable markets are often highly manipulated and rife with scams. Unopened video games are 'selling' for $1 million now, but it's a big scam with the auction house, appraiser, and sellers all colluding together. The crux...

I can generate a random number of 80 digits and you cannot copy that either. Therefore it has innate value

Children are self banking with crypto. Imagine these kids trying to use traditional banking services after paying with lightning and QR codes. "You mean I have to type all this shit in? What the fuck is a CVV2 number?" "The fuck is an overdraft fee? Why the hell can't it just immediately...

Consider that sometimes decentralization offers HIGHER throughput than centralized systems. Torrents showcase this: if you're downloading from many users simultaneously, you can often get stuff faster than from a singular corporate source. Sia's decentralized storage download speeds are quite...

ENS is doing shit that has been done elsewhere. (namecoin, namebase.io, Siacoin/skynet, Civic etc) It's not like they invented the idea of domains and identity on a blockchain. Granted they're probably the most adopted. Bitcoin's layer 1 mainchain intentionally focuses on being sound money...

lol Cardano doesn't even have smart contracts yet and it's one quarter ETH's market cap. Fools and their money

Dr. Dre wears a new pair of nike air force 1s every day. We live in an age of inequality that has never really been seen before. Rich people literally have nothing else to spend their money on and they like things that showcase how much money they can waste. NFTs are the new toy for them...

Coinbase doesn't trade Siacoin Decred or Monero either. They trade what's popular with little to no concern for what are actually interesting projects, apparently. (Internet Computer is tradable lol) I heard a rumor that somebody at Coinbase likes Decred and Cathie Wood has mentioned Decred as...

The SEC settled BitConnect for a mere 12 million after forcing the BitMEX guys to pay 100 million and refuse to settle LBRY for 10? What the ever living fuck? No wonder rich people renounce their citizenship, JFC

I remember Uqua's trash causing our newly guilded knights to cry a shitstorm because I wanted disced warriors on all the trash as it was killing us repeatedly since they were all mini Time gods, and said idiocy making me quit to WoW beta
