BTNB, PSTH, XPOA for me. I'd like to get BTWN and GSAH (which I had for a while) but I'm now more in the camp of "have more in a smaller number of things and hope for the best". Rather than splitting the same amount 5 or 6 ways I'll split it 2 or 3 at the most. Unfortunately I can't drop 100k on...

VET just about back where it was when I sold pre-emptively before the Biden speech and re-bought on the dip the next day. Taking fees into account, I'm up 13-15% from where I was previously at this point. Weathering a dip feels like finally successfully executing a parry/riposte in a Souls game

Speaking of pains in the ass, is the Shrine of Amana the worst area in the entire Soulsborne series or what? Good God. I've been through the second part (of 3) so many times now that most of the enemies stopped spawning. Now I'm trying to get that one Estus Shard off to the side, which requires...

In DkS I got 3 of the 4 primal bonfires lit, only missing the fire fortress (Iron Keep?) to be done. However I hit a bit of a wall with Huntsman's Copse. Think I'm just fatigued from playing this so much. I can't seem to beat Undead Lords. Also tried the chariot boss and lost that a few times...

Yeah, right about now that's looking like the right call. I also sold my MANA and ADA a few weeks ago and then they went way up. Well, I'm sticking with VET. If this causes VET to never grow again...well, I owe everyone an apology, but I'm not going to jump out of it any time soon. Getting...

RIP, this thread~ My Souls 2 Demake run has been interesting. I thought it was the weakest Souls game the first time around and this run has confirmed it. The PS3 version ran like absolute crap at first (forget 30 FPS, open areas were like 15 FPS). I didn't patch the game for a while because I...

It really is, just maybe not on ETH. And as long as you won't get depressed and mope if it crashes another 20% after the buy-in like I do

What do you guys use to stake it? Binance I presume? Didn't see anything in there about staking, will take another look.

Staking is another great thing about Eth. I don't believe you can stake VET. @Mist will definitely want to stake that $50,000 and get interest going on it.

Yeah, I think Eth is the strongest long-term. The only reason I'm in VET instead is because I see bigger short-term gains in that one. I could split evenly between both, I suppose. I prefer to just go with one or the other at a time. I'm probably doing it wrong.

Not advised, Ethereum is at an extremely high point right now. It's going to go up over time but IMO buying in at 2600 when it's been hovering around 2200 usually lately would be foolish. It's been resistant to dips unlike the others, though that doesn't mean it won't dip. It just dips less...

Hnng. I'd certainly invest in her stock exchange. Yeah, this is pretty good so far. The tough part about the upcoming dip will be knowing when it's bottomed-out. The day after the speech? The weekend? Weekend would be ideal for me, and we typically have weekend slumps anyway so there might be a...

Me too dude. Today was perfect, VET's price crested right around my buy-in average (.21, not .22, my math was faulty) so I was able to move everything to USD at almost no loss. I sold my entire VET stock when it was at about .2095 for a total loss of about $15 after fees. If I'd sold an hour...

BEGUN, THIS NEW EQ WAR HAS.

This could be a large swing. If his plan isn't as bad as expected, it isn't like the market is going to jump up either. Not a lot of risk in this play, I bet. I know you're out for swing trades instead of holding. Is there a point where you'd go "this is worth a hold" with VET and would leave...

Hey, we like to feel like victims. ....."we" when I don't play one anymore and 90% chance I'll be SK or Nec on here

I'll have some money again next Friday, if we can get a solid crash going for next weekend I'd be willing to do another big buy-in. I'm excited again.

We've had AoS vs OGC, AoS vs Faceless, OGC vs Faceless, Atabishi vs Mabbu, all that's really left now for a new server is Atabishi vs Zaide.

Nice. Is the guild name a reference to something from the Zimzam case? Yeah. SK or Monk LFGuild, unless I finally decide to Necro it up. Definitely something with FD this time, no question. I think you're right, and unfortunately the timing is just right that I think it'll be the thing to...

Yeah, just once I'd like to see a server start in Kunark for the level 1+ leveling options. They did it for Luclin with Selo. Also REALLY want to see a server start in TSS for the same reason, level 1+ leveling options. Have mentioned it in other threads, but a TSS start would get so much use...

It's good that they're doing something different, but it still has the PoP issue. Presumably LoY is a non-factor, but with LDoN at one month you're still looking down the barrel of four months of PoP. Every server has a big dive there. I'd like to see them do something to keep people playing...

They could have named it "GG Brad"

Yeah, $120/mo on something you're using for general purpose seems pretty good to me. I'd be aiming at like $400-500 a month with 3x graphics cards running 24/7 and doing nothing except mining. Those GPUs look perfect and I don't have to be a 30xx hog if I go that route. This should come...

This is a great post and I'm going to take some time to understand it later when I don't have distractions. I see a lot of familiar faces on that list. Still have PSTH

Yeah, most of my money the next couple weeks is going into a new TV, and a big payment on a car I'm refinancing. Didn't plan it in the budget to do any more investing for a few weeks. It's a really bad time for me for a dip to happen. And as a weekly reminder, my last big buy-in was $2300 of...

https://www.bestbuy.com/site/lg-65-class-gx-series-oled-4k-uhd-smart-webos-tv/6401922.p?skuId=6401922 Still no G1 at Best Buy, a month after release. I could go ahead and grab the GX for $800 less if I didn't have the patience to wait. They must really want to clear out their GX's before...

Sold out now, but I feel like something like this is sorta what I'm looking for with my idea...only with two+ more graphics cards added in (provided it has room for that), with all of them mining.

Maybe this belongs in the crypto thread, not sure. If there's a better thread to ask these questions let me know. I'd like to put together a dedicated crypto mining rig, a computer that I only use for that and nothing else. I've got 3 laptops (new for 2020, 2017, 2016) that I could mine with...

It was an experiment, a gamble on the off chance that we had a weekend dip which I was sure we would. I just looked at my numbers and I have 521 more VET than I did before the experiment, whatever that's currently worth (again, I'm not looking at the numbers for a bit, taking a break). If it...

Because the amount changes every second? After finishing the transaction I had the exact same amount, $1000. I won't know how much I "made" until VET goes back to where it was when I sold. It probably has already, haven't been looking, taking a hands-off this week and doing other things. Doing...

Come to think of it, 2-3 AM EST are 9 AM in France/Germany time and London time respectively. Which means, you guessed it, it's when the African stock market is waking up.

I can definitely say that weird stuff happens in the middle of the night with crypto. I've seen some huge spikes at 2 AM - 3 AM EST. Also seems to reliably spike Monday and Tuesday mornings between 9 AM and 10 AM. Other than that, I don't know.

@Aaron I can echo these, especially #4. Hovering over the charts pretty much guarantees that you're going to cash out prematurely or try to swing trade. Swing trades can be lucrative but they haven't done much for me and are extremely luck-reliant. Just leave the charts alone. I'll add a #5 -...

It's Saturday night, you know what that means. I bought $1000 of VET at .177 after selling at .195 on Friday. Did I make anything overall? Probably a pretty meager amount. But when it gets back to .22 (buy-in average) I should have a little more than I started with. At least it worked out in...

These graphs are mind-blowing. Even though I already knew a lot of it, it's still mind-blowing to see it illustrated so effectively in a group of charts. I was told for years that the productivity/profits/cost of living versus income divide started under Reagan, but 1971 ain't Reagan. This goes...

On the other hand, I'm the guy who came into the thread knowing nothing, and I still know nothing Edit: Not putting down the thread, I've actually learned a LOT from these threads, so much as I'm putting down myself for still making a fair amount of mistakes

When it was in the high 19's earlier I took a fraction of my VET and did the sell-to-buy-later-in-the-weekend thing, mainly as an experiment more than anything else. We'll see if it results in anything. Since it's a fraction it won't really matter either way, just a curiosity to see if I can...

Binance if it's allowed in that state. Coinbase Pro is said to have better fees. Neither should be too tough to set up if they're available. I was pretty lucky to be able to get Binance in my state.

I would advise anybody to not use Coinbase. The fees are unreal and cost me a few hundred over the couple of months that I used it. Find a platform that won't fee you to death.

So say I don't sell at a loss, say we get a brief spike to .22 and I sell $1000 of VET there at essentially neutral baseline. Then I wait for this weekend and buy it back at .16. Putting aside whatever small fees add up to, my new $1000 investment should be worth about $1250 when it gets back to...
