I'm confused here.... You are saying this like "portraying blacking being held down by the man." wasn't their primary and intended purpose of it.....

This is middle aged dad bod John Wick. Or as was said.. John Wick meets Falling Down, with what looks like a little dash of Taken on the side. It will be cheesy, probably cringeworthy in a few places, and it will probably also be the first thing I go into a theater to watch since the Rona hit.

I think the central banks are trying to hedge and stall. They are all going to announce their own digital currencies. Because of this they can't turn the public against the concept of purely electronic money, but at the same time they can't have people moving into assets that they can't...

The general idea should be that if you're accumulating then you would buy there, and send to a wallet for storage..... To echo others "Not your keys, not your coins". This is essentially my strategy in a nutshell. Value store coins (BTC and ETH for me) are in wallets, along with ADA since you...

I'm doing ADA staking in Daedalus wallet. It pays out per epoch, so I'm waiting a month and seeing what 6 epochs pay out. But since it would just be sitting in the wallet anyways it's essentially "free money".

Yeah, Black suit in comics was essentially to augment his solar energy uptake and also provide some protection and whatnot. When he first showed up in it, for instance, he hadn't healed/charged enough to fly. At one point Supergirl (who at the time wasn't kryptonian, but rather a protomatter...

My question is if staking makes you more APY than you'd make just hodl'ing it over on BlockFi... Apparently in the EU there's also a service called SwissBorg which is dong much better on returns, but unavailable in the US yet...

Well, for starters I think he would have his military pension and be making money on contracting gigs. And as mentioned with his skillset a weekends worth of work should be netting him high 6 if not mid 7 figured relative to the cost of sending in tomahawks or multiple units. But even with...

First, they have to have at least 4gb of video ram... Looks like 25 MH/s , if you pay what I pay for electricity you will be making around a romp stomping 10-15 cents per day per card. So around 60 cents per day. This is as per Miningchamp - Find hashrate of Graphics card

@Mrs. Haus literally cloth upholstered an amazon box for our cat...

Yeah, there's even a project now called Unilayer (I believe) that specifically is a Dex and price checks something like 18 exchanges to get you the best rate for your trade.

That falls under "maintain a diversified portfolio"... The answer is... Buy them on Binance, sell them on Coinbase. (Just like the old horde/alliance AH arbitrage) Also, ADA is on regular Coinbase now too.

Well, from a market psychology perspective the whole cryptocurrency market seems to move with BTC. Waiting for that to change will probably mean waiting for ETH2.0 and hoping it moons in order to put it on market cap parity with BTC. From a technology standpoint tons of altcoins aren't...

I'm thinking this was a case of people playing the "Buy the rumor, sell the news" angle on it.

Well, there are a lot of companies that do hold valuable physical assets. Maybe something like a physical safe backed up by double magnetic seal locking doors that you'd only be able to bypass by getting the feds to cut power to the building. It's pretty standard stuff, and the only way to...

I was reading some on this today. They recently passed the Ethereum improvement request to change up how gas fees worked (lowering them) and turn Ethereum into a deflationary currency (it's currently inflationary) and those were both seen as really good things for the users of the currency...

That PowerSpec pre-built I listed earlier (which I picked up last Friday) was literally just go to their website, reserve it for pickup, drive there an hour later, done. As something some of you might find laughable or entertaining. When I decomissioned my old system (In which the coolant...

USDT isn't the only USD stable coin, so even if it gets exposed there are other routes. Plus there are more and more "pull from your debit card/bank account/etc" onramps. Or if you're in Texas it's Beer, Bullets, and Butter. (With Bitcoin wishing it could get in on that party)

SO I tried out awesome miner and Zergpool, and with my electric rate turns out I should actually turn a profit letting my new system chew through hashes in the background... supposedly. Crochety old Haus will not believe this until he sees a BTC deposit land.

First, I agree with you about institutional money too now that I've had a chance to look at the days volumes and prices... As for the charts. https://www.lookintobitcoin.com/charts/relative-unrealized-profit--loss/ If you mark a line at 85% or so, and label it "Irrational exuberance" then you...

And everyday we stray farther from the grace of God...

Same here, it's now set up on my desk as I get things from old system onto it. I'm going to "reinstall things from the ground up so you don't have all those crap apps you never use on your old system on this one" route. Then going to move my trusty old 2TB HDD with pics/documents/whatever on...

The term "Global Reserve Currency" is the currency that governments use to store their value for most people discussion politics/fiscal policy. I'm referencing that the governments aren't going to allow something they can't control to be that reserve because they need to control it to keep the...

I honestly think people are overestimating how much BTC will shoot up due to the stimmy getting passed. Out of that $1.9T only a fraction of it is going out to people, and with the restrictions on who is getting it fewer and fewer middle class people (who could probably afford to drop it into...

Yes, I know someone who wrote her doctoral thesis on this exact topic. The problem is insuring that the individual's identity is secure and anonymized from the vote while the vote itself is blockchain validated. She worked out a system for it and it works. But honestly I think there are...

OK, so I now come before you to see if I'm crazy or not. I need a few card for gaming. I'm woefully behind, which I could deal with until @Mrs. Haus got me a 4k monitor. Currently running a dual nvidia setup of a GTX 760 paired up with a GTX 660. Yeah, it's that bad. Yes, I am ashamed...

My bag currently.... BTC - 68% ETH - 24% Uniswap - 3% Chainlink - 2% Cosmos - 1% Algorand - 1% Oh, and 66 ADA in a separate wallet for staking experiment. I've been reading a lot on ETH lately, and I think it might outperform BTC for a while, so my next cash infusion into the cryptobucket...

There are already projects moving along to take the concept of social media and leverage blockchain technologies to make them decentralized. You see DeFi now for Decentralized Finance, it's a matter of if not when we get DeSoc (Decentralized Social Media). Imagine the repository for all...

In a way the software industry is already doing this, just without blockchain. Those "activation keys" you get are really encrypted strings which they can validate as authentic. The thing the blockchain adds is the ability to track explicitly who bought what. Before they could easily check...

Well, for digital art, if you wanted to protect it, for the most part, you would only put a thumbnail on the item in it's sale profile. Even then someone could screen scrape the graphic itself. But the reality is that yes, it wouldn't be that useful for just a graphic. I'm still honestly...

To imagine the value of NFTs you have to look past the ideas of correlating it to physical art, even though that's what people are trying to do. Remember in Ready Player One? All those in game items... think of them as NFTs. There could only be so many Deloreans, or so many Fireflies, or so...

For me I have been considering taking money I had parked in a traditional savings account (as a "just in case money" buffer) and just putting it into USDC and then storing those on BlockFi for interest. I think it all comes down to how much you trust the stability/ethics/security of the...

I'm still confused though as to if this Superman and Lois is on the same Earth as the Flash and the rest of the Arrowverse (since they're confirming Stargirl apparently as being on Earth 2 by bringing in Wesley Shipp's Jay Garrick in season 2)

... and that's possibly the highest praise one can give it. ;) Second episode done, still feeling cautiously optimistic about it. I can see the path the twins drama will unfold along, but that isn't bothering me much. I'm sure we'll have a steady diet of Small Town Reporter Lois Lane, but...

I can like and appreciate that. Sets up a proper bad guy, that being a bad guy who believes he is the good guy.

You remember thinking it was highway robbery when you had to pay 24 cents per shot for hollow point 9mm ammo.

Yep, that's him. Something about the way he talks on them just grates me, but I see his point, and I'll honestly let it run in the background (muted) on my system if it gets him another view towards having more views than her.

So today's pondering in my head.... Keep my coins in my wallet, with my keys, etc.... v. Put the ones I can on BlockFi and earn "interest" on them.... With a side tangent of the hybrid being that I can keep my Cardano on my Deadalus wallet and stake from there.

I don't watch this, but @Mrs. Haus watches a youtuber who "Hate Reviews" it every week. At this rate his hate reviews are going to be getting more weekly views than the show they're based on within a month.

I'm taking a "wait and see" approach as the first 2-3 episodes of about any series is going to do a ton of exposition/setup/character establishment. I do agree that we will need to see more "Superman doing Superman shit" v. "Side characters doing their thing" in the long run to really make me...
