    Yeah, after an abysmal May/June I just finished July up 10% from my June finish, so there's some hope, dare I say. heh

    There are a ton of things to mine other than ETH. The problem is profitability. You can mine a shitcoin all day long, but if you're getting the same payout in number of coins as you were for ETH you're not going to be profitable. I can look just for my scenario of having one nVidia GPU. I...

    And they've already mentioned that for some amount of time they will be a hybrid with both PoS and PoW generating new blocks, slowly weening off PoW over time. That's another thing which will hit moderately hard will be all the people currently mining ETH on their video cards when PoW isn't a...

    I think a key to remember is that Pico is really just chopped up tomatoes, onions, and bell peppers. Two of which are on a default whataburger. My set up, and I know this isn't for everybody, is mustard and pickles only with no bun oil. You can request they leave off the bun oil they put on...

    "something.. something... irrational exuberance. " I think that's the term you're looking for, but don't worry, I'm absolutely certain that never leads to bad things.

    Thought I'd drop in and give my "Day Tripper Experience" with Austin... A couple weeks ago the salesperson I work with was set to make a ridiculous run to Austin and back on a Saturday, but had an emergency come up so I offered to make the run for her. The run? We were working on making sure...

    Yeah, but also I believe there are some trend studies that show the more often a commodity of any sort bump into resistance and is thwarted it increases the chance it will eventually bust through it. Same with bouncing off support, it will eventually break down. I still believe we're going to...

    Apparently so, or I should say EIP1559 is supposed to be the big step towards POS which will include fee burning. What I fear is that the BTC rally is effectively sapping the oxygen from the proverbial room so any bump it gets will be dulled by increases in BTC dominance and market cap share.

    Because they consider themselves bigger than the Fed or JPM. This would let them establish their own economy essentially. As for the VET/VTHO comparisons. Amazon is already a logistics company, it would make sense for them to have a blockchain for that use alone, then extend it into a currency.

    WalMart is also setting the stage for this. Where they sell gas you can pay cash, or you can get a .05 a gallon discount if you walk inside, buy a WalMart gift card and load it up with your cash to pay for gas. It's essentially WalMart Coin pegged to (Dollar+.05) for gas. I bet eventually...

    Check it.. It's not as accurate when you go too far back from the ATH, but since, it's a pretty clear "Get in/Get Out" indicator. One of the traders I watch is Krowne from Krowne's Crypto Cave on Youtube and he's been going nuts for the last month on how much the "damn witches" are just as...
