I'm read something today saying The Flash may also be on the cancellation bubble after this season as it's ratings are also falling. Although they have Grant Gustin signed for another season, don't know if that matters if they cancel it.
Being as I'm a greedy whore I'm perfectly OK with the market getting beaten into submission until around the 2nd of next month.... Make a nice flat bottom. I'm perfectly OK with this.
I like Lark, but also I file him as an overly optimistic analyst. I balance him with people like Krowne (who is hard TA and literally spend this morning taking about "not good things on the horizon" for BTC)
He's also obviously on the spectrum and prone to occasional profanity laden rants...
Yeah, what AAVE is doing isn't a pyramid scheme. They're simply offering an up front bonus for using the services because it will get more liquidity into their system which is the long term thing they need. I haven't been playing with it yet though, and probably won't personally.
RIght now...
I will also chime in with the "start small and build up as you learn your lessons". Same way I learned poker with friends playing nickle/dime ante long before I decided to sit down at a table in a casino and drop "serious paper money" on it.
I started around 90 days ago (you can go WAY back in...
OK, so first time this has happened to me and I thought i'd ask what you good folks think I should do.
Pulled the trigger on a transaction on the ETH network, in this case leveraging the matic bridge to move some ETH over to the MATIC L2. Clocks in at 50 GWEI. Cool.
I wait 10 minutes and...
Yeah, sounds like instead of ETH2, they need to call it "Staked ETH". Although in the long run when ETH2 hits apparently there will be a transition and all ETH will "become" ETH2....
I still have a bit of BTC. And regardless of if it's a "meme coin" or "useless" the fact is right now it has the market cap dominance that it isn't going anywhere. And I suspect it will have another leg in this bull market, which means there will be a more profitable place to exit the...
Na....
About 19% of gold worldwide is used as bullion (i.e. store of wealth)
Around 78% is used for Jewelery
The remaining 3% or so is used in electronics and other uses.
I'm leveraging coinbase right now to accumulate on dips of things I can buy there. (predominantly ETH, ADA) then waiting to move the ETH once gas prices subside.
I had to do a debunking run on the ecological nonsense already due to a friend making this claim about crypto months ago.
Gold uses far more energy and produces far more industrial waste... Which is what BTC positions to replace.
Same for the traditional banking system... Which is what...
OK... you take a pile of dollars. I'll take a pile split between DAI and USDC. Exchanging neither for anything else who do you think will have more in a year?
Protip :
Now, from an investing standpoint during a bull market (which we're still in) you only want to have it as a temporary...
1) As already noted, nowhere near recovering all of it yet... still down considerably.
2) People spooked by a drop pull money out to stablecoins (DAI/USDC/USDT/etc...) then when they think it's bottomed they re-insert (which does account for some of the bounce).
3) Crypto markets are never...
I have a small bag, as mentioned it really doesn't have an honest use in and of itself. But with that said, it's up around 38% since I bought in. So I have no complaints.

That's some good news for us Texans... Plus as a bonus I actually know the congressman who is behind it (Tan Parker)
On the other hand.... at these gas fee levels the mining on my wee single 3070 will probably pay off a sizable chunk the PC I am using by the end of the month. ;)
I love how on the crypto.com site they have a gas fee tracker... which then shows that they're not even in the top 5 on best price for a transaction, but they still put themselves at the top of the list. heh
At this point if it's still at this level of stupid when I want to do my next buy in I...
The practice I have is as one goes up when it's around 150% my original in I take out some amount of my original stake (usually 20-25%). Then at %175 I take out another slice, then at 200% I take out the remainder of my original investment so I'm playing with "house money". It makes for...
That's the magic halo range. Just close enough that you can get into town for work if needed, far enough out that public transit won't get rioters to you neighborhood. Imagine that around Dallas, plus broadband access, and you have where I'm looking for my next house.
So... we create a coin which has a built in smartcontract to burn fees in order to maintain scarcity. In fact, we have a policy to burn fees so that at any point in time 13% of the wallets will own 50% of the coins. We will operate on the PoT (Proof of Tits) validation mechanism, and our cross...
Sounds horribly predatory... But yeah... wait until the foreclosure moratoriums are gone, then however long it takes to evict people in your state, then look for the bank auctions.
Well this is derailing into general life money management. But I will admit, at one point not long ago I had one goal. Zero Debt.. Period. And I was pretty close to hitting it. No CC balances, only a mortgage and Car payment left to knock out. Then I came to a realization. If my house and...
This is what I've been seeing/reading and why I'm also in on MATIC. Right now it's the heaviest of what I consider "altcoins". (I consider ETH and BTC a different class, and hold more of both of those than MATIC)
A good example, say if 2.0 hits and it slashes gas fees by 75%, those fees will...
I am waiting to judge the Doge fiasco until I see how far it falls total. Question is if it erases it's total gains from the start of this pump (around mid last month) or not.
I did not jump on the DOGE train, and am still knocking on wood before I say "happy" about this weekend across the board.
OK, I am going ETH-Matic and a little Matic-Quick on Quickswap. ETH-MATIC has been OK as they've both been decent on price action and the value of the stake is growing, plus is earns incremental Quick as a bonus. I haven't been as pleased with Matic-Quick because Quick is a tiny cap volatile...
I'm not staking ETH for ETH2.0 right now, but I am staking some ETH in liquidity pools. Most notably the ETH-MATIC pair has been treating me pretty well lately. And today's trading volumes aren't hurting that.
Yeah, and I'm sure as I get to the point of "serious" money in this game (right now I'm still a "I could lose it and it would hurt but it wouldn't be life crashing" level hobbiest) then I'll have to take that into account. But also there are Defi projects which are starting up which are...
Even if I want to avoid the risk of impermanent loss and/or swings in the market I see this and wonder why I would store a single cent in a savings accounts at a bank anymore...
My next infusion of spare investment cash will hit at end of the month. But I have around half my stack on ETH right now so I'm not unhappy...
Going to HODL for a few years? Buy in as much as you can. But remember, this also means you're going to HODL through the next bear market, so flex...
Doge has a high price in 2015 somewhere around .000145 cents per Doge. SO that would have been around 690k doge.
Current price is around .40 per Doge...
That would suss out to around $275k today. But at the same point if you'd gotten it in 2015 would you REALLY have held it this long...
OK. I have a question that hopefully someone here can enlighten me to...
I recently started using Zapper - Dashboard for DeFi , I like it because it lets me see the combination of both my ethereum mainnet, and MATIC mainnet wallets which are both in metamask (different networks) combined.
I...
I've had the ETH live chart on a side screen at my house this evening. It was funny watching it take HOURS to fight from 2997-2999.99. Then it pops $3k and immediately jumps to $3025 within a minute. All hail "psychologically important" numbers!
And just to reiterate it...
Some industrious people found a work around for that , you apparently just need to load a specific version of the drivers (or older) and not upgrade those.
