    If the nukes start flying, I'm going to be relying on my investment in lead to payoff.

    Vitalik has been a weird dude for years. Anyone who knows anything about him or ethereum knows that. Being a weird dude doesn't prevent you from being a genius. In fact most geniuses are weird dudes. As for the "globohomo" shtick, I can think of few things that would be more "globohomo"...

    No Flobee, I'm not selling my ETH because Vitalik wants to eat bugs :rolleyes:. Though I have to admit, this is the most creative ETH FUD I've seen you come up with so far.

    Aaaaand here's that next leg down we were expecting. Still expecting the greater market to settle somewhere that leaves BTC between 20k-25k. Just a guess. Edit: Crypto taking much less of a hit than I thought it would, considering the rest of the market. Interesting to ponder the idea that...

    I will admit I started averaging in today on Matic. Not a bunch, I'm going to wait and see how things play out and try and be disciplined about putting in a bit at a time. It's looking like an upturn for now though. Still 90% cash for stocks.

    For sure. It's just interesting to me that both the richest man in the world and one of the most brilliant crypto minds are both seemingly invested in seeing Doge succeed. Lots of reasons for this, probably. Musk obviously has a huge financial investment in it. Crypto as a very serious image...

    I dunno man. I don't have much faith in any chart that doesn't consider the wider market as a whole. Crypto simply doesn't move independently of the broader market. Trying to analyze crypto charts in a vacuum seems like a waste of time imo.

    I'm kind of expecting lots of changes like this. That's one of the benefits of a reset. The herd gets culled (Luna) and the status of the top dogs gets realigned.

    Oddly it doesn't list the ram in the specs, just storage space. And no identifying numbers other than a53

    Should have. Kinda hating this A53. I got passed at Google because I paid 1k for the Pixel 2xl and they stopped updating it 2 years after I bought it. Lots of bad shit started happening once the updates stopped, but fuck if I was going to pay 1k for a phone and only keep it 2 years. At...

    I usually leave for the theater at the time the movie is slated to start. I can get to the theater, park, pay for the movie, buy popcorn, find my seats, and still have about 5 minutes of bullshit before the show starts. And yes, one of the reasons previews suck so much these days is because...

    Here's how it works: there's a big pool of money out there. The money comes from idiots trying to make easy money in the crypto market. If you want to use the lawyerly term, you can call them "unsophisticated investors." Now, most of these idiots don't have a lot of money, but there's a lot...

    What I read was that it was going to be way more than 1B because he would be subject to a lawsuit. https://www.cnbc.com/2022/05/13/elon-musk-cant-just-walk-away-from-twitter-deal-by-paying-1-billion.html

    Any guesses on what Musk is trying to pull? From what I understand he would be exposed to a super costly lawsuit if he tried to walk away from the deal at this point. Maybe he's trying to walk away and use the "they lied in their public filings" excuse as a preformulated defense for the...

    I haven't forgotten Bretton Woods, don't worry. If you couldn't tell from my post, I have a decent concept of the gravity of what it would take to change the current paradigm. That said, all paradigms change eventually. I totally get your skepticism (and everyone's skepticism, because you...

    No one has a crystal ball, but I think you and Flobee are skipping some steps. I don't think there is going to be a magic moment where BTC suddenly replaces the USD as the reserve currency and crypto decouples from the stock market at the same time. Things tend to be more incremental. I...

    Pretty much agree with all of this. I certainly wish a decoupling could have happened before this crash, but I think this crash will ultimately help precipitate the decoupling. Basically all we are missing is widely spread adoption of crypto. Lack of it is what is preventing the decoupling. The...

    Crypto drop was a precursor of the overall Market drop at the beginning of this recent downturn. Crypto started dropping the night before. Of course that doesn't mean the same thing is going to happen again

    Yeah dude, good luck. Don't get too down, you may be underwater for a little while but Bitcoin always rebounds higher than before. No reason to think it won't this time too. And think about it this way, you could be one of the poor bastards that bought in at 68000

    Yeah I agree- not about the crazy Highlander stuff, but about the current pain being necessary. The entire market has been overheated and that was doubly true for the crypto market. I honestly won't even sweat it unless BTC falls below 15k. I wouldn't be surprised if we settled in the low...

    Yeah man, don't leave your btc on coinbase. Get it off ASAP. Lots of people use online wallets but I prefer cold storage like: https://shop.ledger.com/products/ledger-nano-s Crypto storage is kind of a subject in and of itself though. So I would recommend you do some independent research and...

    I've said it before and I'll say it again, taking my crypto into cold storage was the best move I've made. Here's an interesting graphic. I haven't independently verified the numbers, but they seem at least approximately accurate: Note these are the LOW'S each year since 2012. This should...

    Dude, who knows how this all ends, but I would personally be shocked if you weren't in the black, probably by a substantial margin, by end of year. You got a 10-year window? You'll be fine. The people that get screwed in crypto are the people who trade on margin and/or have a really short...

    Recently got on a kick showing old 80s and 90s movies I grew up with to my girlfriend. I realized something similar. A lot of those old movies didn't take themselves too seriously, but still managed to put enough effort into the film for it to be weighty. That combination is really missing these...
