    Bogdanoff twins died and it's causing the markets to crash.

    Clearly he didn't catch the absolute bottom, but if he bought at $3,333 he isn't too far off right now. If (when) it rebounds back to 4k+ I'd say he did nicely. IMO there's a 99% chance ETH goes back above 4k and well beyond- the only question is how long it takes to get there.

    Grats, you *may* have caught the absolute bottom of this current dip.

    Dumbest thing you can do is sell at a loss if you are talking ETH/BTC/Matic. If you are talking shit coins you might as well sell

    This is really insightful and all, but we've all seen the Matrix and most of us probably have at least heard of Plato's Cave. Did you port in here from 1999 to save us?

    RIP Betty White

    Then again, as someone else noted, having an entire magazine devoted to your 100th birthday get printed and then dying just before you turn 100 is excellent comedic timing.

    Makes sense. They've had lots of big news recently and lots of people are using this dip to buy in.

    Yeah, I got what you were saying and I didn't disagree. Seems like a nice little loophole (in a sense) that you've found. I've been swinging ETH myself on RH (free trades) and I'm liking how it's been working so far.

    This is the long way of saying right now it doesn't exist. It's still very much in the "idea" phase. People are investing money in things that, at best, would be considered wild speculation. You'd have to be pretty fucking insightful to have any idea of what direction things are going to move...

    For use case crypto, buy and hold is very clearly the best way to make money. No question. For shitcoin slot machines, buy and hold is the worst strategy long term. That's how you lose your money. You can obviously make money swing trading a use case coin like ETH. Gotta be patient...

    Yeah, something like that could have some pretty dark implications- especially in China. But there are a million non-evil ways it would be useful to have a way to instantly track and verify chain of custody from manufacturer to delivery. VET has dipped its toes a bit in the food industry...

    I like Vechain/VET. I'm invested in Vechain. But shit like this really makes me wonder if it's just a really convincing scam. They've announced a lot of "partnerships" in the past that haven't seemed to amount to much. I'd like to think they wouldn't have the audacity to announce a...

    Yeah, that was always a wildly optimistic prediction. I personally didn't predict it would go quite that high, but honestly I wouldn't have been too surprised if it did. It's been an unbelievably good year for crypto as a whole. If you went in on ethereum at the beginning of this year, you are...

    Some social networking platforms are in the process of implementing their own crypto to accomplish the same thing Minds is proposing, but it seems like Minds is both a crypto AND a social networking platform? Kind of confusing?

    Monsters and Memories (Project_N) - Old School Indie MMO

    Thanks for the summary. Did I read somewhere that one or more of the devs on this actually worked on original EQ, or did my brain just make that up? Have these guys put anything out before? Do they have professional funding or is this a garage project? People seem to be pretty optimistic...

    Can someone summarize why we think this has an actual chance of 1. Being a quality EQ style mmo. 2. Actually coming out before we are all geriatric. I'm sure the data is buried throughout the thread, but if someone has Cliff's Notes I'd be obliged.

    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.

    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...

    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...

    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...
