EDIT: NVM

Me and 4 RL friends just started on this server. Bazaar has been awesome for getting basic starting gear for 100-150p. Nothing fancy, but just having a decent weapon and something better than cloth makes a huge difference. Enjoying the server so far.

Had pretty much the same experience. Don't remember the exact amounts, but i do remember it cost about 40% of the value of my ETH just to move it from one place to another.

For sure, better than BTC. Like I've been saying forever, BTC was never going to fulfill that role- just like you wouldn't go buy a hotdog with a gold nugget. Personally, I'm not sure ETH will ultimately fulfill the daily transaction role either, though.

Ethereum 🔥

Gotta ask- how do you think the 1200 person server cap is going to affect things?

Anyone know the rules for pet damage/exp on this server? I know when it opened you had to do at least 51% damage to a mob or pet would take exp, even if you were in a group. Heard that they eventually changed it to the typical rule: so long as you are grouped and do at least a little damage to...

Already happening. Both V and MC are building stablecoin rails to enable their networks to use stablecoins for payments, settlements, and cross-border transactions, especially on-chain.

Regardless of how this "new financial paradigm" plays out, there's a few things I'm certain about: 1. The majority of changes will benefit corporations, not consumers. 2. Middle men won't be removed from the equation, but they'll be replaced by different Middle men. 3. Likewise, some annoying...

Interesting concept, but would need to see details on how it would be implemented. Seems like it would be super easy to abuse. Also she's saying "crypto" not Bitcoin.

Part of the reason BTC seems like such a missed opportunity for some people is because of how fast and how far it has gone up. If you bought apple in 1985 you'd have had to hold the stock 40 years to get a 250,000% increase. If you bought BTC in 2011 you'd have only had to wait 14 years for a...

Btc sailing. Bloomberg Terminal has switched its scale to show Bitcoin in Millions. It's currently 0.116M for one Bitcoin

Going to have to explain this one to me.

Markets rely on psychology as much as math. No one says their whole strategy is based on Satoshi’s coins staying dormant, but those coins have been untouched for 15+ years and are generally treated as lost. That absolutely affects perceived circulating supply and investor confidence. If those...

Because it would destroy the core assumption that those coins are permanently dormant. None of the coins attributed to Satoshi have *ever* been spent or moved. The sudden availability of up to 1 million BTC (about 5% of total supply) could trigger panic selling, crash the price, and undermine...

I've been saying this for a long time. A whole lot of assumptions are being made- including that Satoshi is actually dead. No one even know who Satoshi was (is)- how could they possibly know he is (they are) dead?? Events like this show some people have the patience to sit on huge piles of...

I asked Rogean a long, long time ago when he was still posting on these boards (or the original foh board, as it was back then). I suggested that they open a new server every few years and combine old servers. Keeps things fresh and there's always a new or newish server to play on but no one...

I.e. plenty of time to transition away from the dollar. Agree that we aren't facing imminent collapse, but we are going to get a snowball effect as more people realize this and we drift into an autocatalytic cycle. This is especially true as it becomes more obvious that there is an easy...

Pretty much a pattern at this point- like I was saying in the other thread. Instinct tells me there's some fuckery going on in the lag between normal stock market hours and the 24 hour crypto cycle.

Yeah no shit. Micro city management is for the birds. What a pain in the ass trying to keep ungrateful citizens happy all day. I'm going to build you a fucking temple, keep you from living in squalor with sewers, give you plenty of food from farms, and you're still going to hate me. No thanks.

Kind of sad how many games I've outgrown. For a long time I thought the newer games were just bad, but then I realized most of them were fine and I just didn't enjoy that kind of gameplay anymore. Still a gamer, but the games I enjoy have just really narrowed these days. I can usually only...

Can't buy the underlying asset yet in retirement accounts

I've tried to scoop up the BTC ETFs after several weekend dips, but the price always seems to recover by Monday.

If the dip holds or extends into Mon i will 100% be buying fbtc.

Couldn't agree more, actually. As ridiculous as I find maxis, we wouldn't be where we are without them. You can't turn something without clear intrinsic value into the world's best store of value without absolute bedrock levels of faith from a large number of people. I still like to give...

Disappointing. I come here largely for your fanaticism.

Liquidated all my holdings except FBTC and FETH at about 1p this afternoon, after reports of an imminent strike on Iran by Israel seemed credible. Oh, I did buy the dip on GME. Probably going to regret that one 🤦‍♂️.

Wrong thread!

Ofc. This is ONE of the reasons why BTC was never going to be the day to day common currency. It doesn't need to be. BTC's value is as an appreciating store of wealth. Is it a hedge? Yes. Is it a life raft against fiat debasement? Absolutely. Are you going to go into a 7-11 to buy a...

So... are they going to need to put scales and xrf analyzers next to cash registers in all FL stores now? Seems dumb.

Yeah it was several years ago. I saw you moved into the space with the ETFs, but i didn't know you were holding the actual asset.

I hesitate to even ask you anything about btc, since you've previously made it clear in several occasions that you aren't a fan. Not sure if you've changed your mind- but isn't your entire post pretty much an advertisement for bitcoin?

Eh, maybe I'll watch ep2 then. Was pretty underwhelmed with ep1. Stale dialog, half-hearted acting, predictable plot points. Didn't really grab me at all tbh. These days I need to feel compelled to watch a second episode in a series and I definitely didn't feel compelled in this case. I...
