    I looked at Ember Sword. They had a pre-launch sale of in-game land. I was interested, looked like $30-$50 per plot for land in the game. I figured I could buy a couple plots next to one another, play the game, see if one could make money in it, while @Mrs. Haus could play "player housing" on...

    I will admit if they had an MMO style game where you could turn profit on the level you can in Axie I'd probably be down with it. Especially if I could adapt the TSM macro set from WoW.

    This is where it's officially off the rails. The FIRST rule of making any law IMHO is to ask yourself "What's the most heinous way this could be abused?" Then assume it will be, and if that is unpalatable, then the law is unpalatable.... The Democrats failed to apply this guideline when...

    Purely entertaining real time visualization of fees and blocks being minted for ETH and BTC https://txstreet.com/ Interesting analysis is that gas fees have either stayed the same or gone up since the london hard fork went in, which seems to be counter to what a lot of ETHmaxis have been saying.

    Yeah, my standing theory right now is to own assets that appreciate, and avoid holding USD at pretty much all costs past what I have to have liquid to spend. I think it's that the US government doesn't know what to do if they can't control the financial world their citizens live in.

    Yeah, I see the biggest effect this law would have would be driving a bunch of companies out of the US (bye bye potential tax revenue), and make more people just start using VPN's and further disconnecting from the US financial system.

    And it's not even that complicated. You don't really need "when" in the equation.... Keep track of how much total you bought. (Total owned) Keep track of how much total you spent for it. (Total Invested) Total Invested / Total owned = Dollar Cost Average

    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...

    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...
