TLDR is: You can deposit your MATIC and get interest back on it. Then you can borrow MATIC and actually get more bonus interest than you’re paying on it. It’s some kind of promotion for the site per my understanding.

Here's what I was talking about with AAVE earlier. The dashboard makes things (slightly) less confusing. At the moment it's not even as good as staking (18 percent) depending how you structure it. Currently I'm borrowing MATIC with MATIC which leaves no inherent risk, because you pay back the...

All this stuff is finally starting to sound less foreign the more I’ve read about it over the past couple of months. Finally getting some of the lingo down. When I first started reading about crypto I was like WTF are all these made up words and terms.

And from what I’m gathering and I’m curious of your thoughts...ETH alone won’t be able to keep up without the help of other coins based off of it even with 2.0. Idea being that as ETH grows; layer 2 coins (ie Polygon) will grow also. I keep seeing references to ETH being the interstate, but it...

I feel way better having most of my stuff off an exchange now. The temptation to keep buying / selling / day trading is taken away.

I spent an entire evening after work figuring all of that out. Literally finished work around 3:30 pm and before I knew it, it was midnight and I still wasn’t done. Essentially but will still be confusing: Bought MATIC on Binance. Transferred it to my hardware wallet. MATIC is an Ethereum...

Opinions on Polygon / MATIC? I bought a boatload of it yesterday around 70 cents and have it in AVAVE accumulating wrapped MATIC as Polygon is giving some major incentives to do right now. First time I’ve actually took crypto off an exchange, which feels nice as I won’t be tempted to sell it as...

It’s rather spectacular how they died out overnight. Didn’t expect that. I reckon it’s a matter of time before they become popular again, barring new regulation that just permanently kills them.

Yeaaaaah. Interesting days to come.

Nice, I’m about to get my 3rd payout from 2miners.

Eh, it’s easy to say now. I had a million of it in January around 2 cents. I would have sold it definitely when it reached 6 to 10 cents so there’s no way I would still have it til now.

Anything going up this fast is bound to take a bit of a dive soon. What would the dive even look like at this point, though.

Definitely not too late.

Glad you got them! Now here’s to mining before ETH goes to staking.

I’m gonna wait til tomorrow / weekend myself. We’ll see if it’s the right roll of the dice.

Dear diary: maybe I should have simply stayed in the 19.4 ETH I had a couple of weeks ago.

I’ve read a few times now and heard various dubious youtube talking heads say that Bitcoin going down or stagnating while Ethereum rises is an indicator of bad market health. True? Or is this just a change in sentiment of BTC vs ETH that perhaps bucks past trends.

I won’t claim to know a lot but everything I read is positive. Sounds like it has a place and will grow over time. It recently had a pretty big jump as I watching and failed to jump on.

And out of nowhere a bit of a dump is occurring. VET has been really weak lately vs everything else with the rebounds. It hasn’t been pushing back past 20-21 cents barely.

No idea, but I’m gonna still wait until the weekend to buy anything wherein lately it’s dumped every weekend. Of course the one time it won’t will be this weekend..

True on all counts. It’s a crazy time. Which doesn’t inspire confidence, in me at least.

I am starting to question how much ol Joe will impact things. Mind you I have no doubt the market will dip again soon since it always does. I’m thinking maybe the tax scare is priced in right now already.

Spate of bad luck I’d say. It happens sometimes but not frequently to me.

I seem to recall you said you might need it fluid inside of a year. Unfortunately I dunno how safe near NAV SPACs even are at this point considering many of them go below NAV. How about carefully monitored sub-NAV SPACs? 😜

Binance.us automatically stakes it just for being in the wallet. Apparently this is different from the Binance app for other countries where you have to set it to stake.

Staking it is how you generate VTHO.

Look at it this way. It’s easy to FOMO when everything is riding high. The fact is though everything has had pretty big crashes like 4-5 times in the past few weeks. Everything turns red, everyone thinks the sky is falling. The past is not always an indicator but chances are even if Biden fails...

Eh. I've bought and sold them both so often I have no idea how much I actually gained from VET. Maybe none at all actually, depending on how often they pay out.

Thoughts on how this might affect things as well? https://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-options-market-eyes-4-2b-expiry-on-friday

Gonna be variable on what tanks the most. And this goes for any tank day, not just the expected one in the next 24 hours. VET and VTHO are both things I'm looking at. VTHO has proven to be a money maker every time the market dips. When the market is solid, VTHO maintains almost even 10...

Agreed, was already thinking of it. Actually my finger is on the trigger right now. I see prices stagnating at the moment.

If I got into VET at 0.11 on a limit buy, then yeah , I'd just leave it. That's what I was actually hoping for on Sunday again, and I missed it touching 15s again. I'm up around $7k since Sunday, and I easily could have been up $15k but I didn't time the bottom very well and bought as it was...

Correction, everything I’m reading now is saying Biden’s speech with Congress is Wednesday night. Also, top of the page of Drudge today. What are the odds this doesn't affect markets by Thursday...

Biden’s plan before Congress is gonna be laid out on Thursday. I’m selling Wednesday night or Thursday morning to buy back in after.

Agreed. The last rumor only tanked it very briefly, don’t expect much difference here. But should be a great time to get in.

I'd say it's probably a good time to buy after Joe talks about this: https://news.yahoo.com/know-biden-capital-gains-tax-190723167.html Obviously rumor of it tanked the crypto market recently...but he's supposedly going to publicly talk about it this week. Two ways to think about it of...

Yah. Once you start playing legend you’ve actually got to start dodging / blocking, learning how to strafe around, etc, or you die fast. And you can pull off some team saving heroics once you get really good. My recommendation is get a character to at least 30 if not 35, get the gear level...

It has a ton of nuance but only on legend / cata. The game didn’t really start to be fun until then. In fact I was on the verge of quitting while leveling up then started doing the harder difficulty and I was like “oh this is actually fun now.”

Building? What you want to do is buy and hold lumber right now. Sorry, hodl.
