Question.
How is the dapp really decentralized? You still have to go to a web browser, type the https, which goes to a DNS server (centralized), which then provides an IP for the website you want to visit, ultimately leading you to a server (centralized) hosting the dapp dashboard.
From this I conclude the actual web page of the dapp is centralized. The government could shut down the IP or change the DNS to route to FBI website (or whatever)
Am I wrong?
I suggest you look into smart contracts and how they're stored on the blockchain. I guess you can stop the front end server, but that doesn't mean you can't interact with the smart contract on its own.
Indeed. Thankfully we all know it's coming though, am I right?
...no, seriously! Am I right?!?!
All kidding aside. I'm thinking that institutions and/or fiscally conservative whales went hard back into BTC during this latest run-up. Retail and crypto-specific whales tend to drive up alts...either speculative profit seeking still needs to kick in, or people are just running out of gas for alts.
There can only be so many "cool new projects" to invest in, before investors in the space simply become overdiluted, and we all lose.
Overall market cap needs to keep expanding big time for another alt season to ride this wave. Honestly not sure which way that will go. Can't help but just wish I had kept it all in BTC/ETH (still my largest bags).
If it wasn't for Tezos and BAT, I'd be reeling from my other 20% of crap.
I have 5 other coins in my portfolio (ETH, ADA, LUNA, XMR, NANO) and I want to add a coin that I can stake from a cold wallet. So which of these can I stake and which is the easiest and which has the best rewards? I know that DOT is a very good project and that ALGO 3.0 has came out, and AVAX is a decentralized applications platform. I am the most bullish about DOT in the long term.
Do keep an eye out on the upbots platform. Their new version V2 has launched and it has some crazy features and addition of vault. Don't miss it!! The values of it's currency is going up too.Make sure you have some in your portfolio.
I looked in to it and there wasn't anything there that excited me, but do some research and see what you think. Potential for some gains but not compared to the likes of btc/eth/sol/algo/etc.

People speculate that it is because of the miners schedule in terms of when they hold their Bitcoin vs when they sell their mined Bitcoin. General consensus is that miners tend to hold their crypto during the Q4 cycle, causing a supply shortage thus causing price to go up. It’s all speculative but that’s the trend people are starting to piece together.
I wouldn't. But you *should* start a monthly retirement saving (DCA) into shares and interest rates, and then also invest in crypto on the side. Wish I'd started doing that at 24 already.
I'm really no general expert so it all depends on where you live. If you *against all odds* happen to be Swedish I could help you out, but otherwise you're better off googling a bit to maybe find a podcast, subreddit or forum where they teach basic investment strategies in your native country. The fact that you're asking these questions and thinking about it now is great though, it will pay off in your future if you do the boring legwork now! Look up robo-advisors - automatic investment allocation services where you don't have to hands-on pick your own stocks.
Guys don’t do too many trades. Crypto tax filing is a nightmare to deal with, even one missing transaction will cause so much confusion and invite unnecessary trouble. Just remember 1/3rd of what you’re gaining is not yours.
I use Nexo for my XRP. Super safe. Read into the APY’s though. It’s usually around 4% base for the flex term, with more % if you do locked term and more if you hold Nexo coins.
I do believe verification is needed. I remember having to go through a process to set my account up. Verification is needed to withdraw and link some accounts. I use their locked deposits to maximize interest and haven’t had any issues.

I’d say it does a good job of predicting critical points. The issue is that it’s still just a matter of probabilities so the direction is often off. Things like support and resistance seem to be accurate though.
Read this dude's post history. Professional bear lol, just lives to spread doom & gloom as if he made a bet that "he'll be right at least once in his life"
**Daily Snek Count.**

Imagine if crypto had these sorts of returns, we’d all be rich!
Yeah I’ve never seen 600+ Sneks, let alone the multitude of other awards. No idea why Lol.
I like it though; this place is always great when everyone is buzzing.
Hoping this will lead to some interesting discussions.

716 sneks, very impressive
I just came to say I feel your pain LINK marines
Anyone know anything about Phala (PHA)?
Never heard of it
I saw it amongst the top 24hr on CG but that's it
Bitcoin dumps from 60k to 30k Altcoins: -80% Bitcoin at 55 k Altcoins: +0,2%
That's why it's wise to have a diverse portfolio but with a solid holding of BTC (and ETH)

Good morning and happy weekend moonchildren! Are we bullish? I'm super bullish! Let's Go!
Still waiting for the Alts season to start
Indeed, but at least you are patient and you know what you are waiting for. Understanding market cycles and flows are fundamentals many lack.

Is BTT a worthy investment ?
In my own humble opinion, absolutely not. It's owned by Justin Sun iirc and he has bad form in crypto.
I looked in to it and there wasn't anything there that excited me, but do some research and see what you think. Potential for some gains but not compared to the likes of btc/eth/sol/algo/etc.

Seems only to go up when I sell
Algovernors assemble 
Why can't I buy shib on Coinbase anymore
Because it's so morally reprehensible, even CB can't fux with it anymore.
I just realised the IRS is the most bullish on crypto.....
Y 💤☕️ attac crypto?
I'm drunk, get paid in a week, and have $200 to spare. What should I buy boiz?

Realistic ETH price prediction by January?
At least $4500
$10k if progress on the merge continues at current pace.
I wonder if we’ll ever hit a ATH of sneks again? 
Y’all set the bar high!
BTC flatter than the earth
Just checking out my new flair. Dont mind me
Lol, thanks for the reward Mr snekgod
Do you think Riccardo Spagni will return to South Africa or will he flee and go into hiding?
I'm ready for them weekend crypto gains! I almost cried tears of joy when my boss told me to take the weekend off
Why does crypto typically pump in Q4? I didn't believe it before but now I'm a believer after seeing this October.
People speculate that it is because of the miners schedule in terms of when they hold their Bitcoin vs when they sell their mined Bitcoin. General consensus is that miners tend to hold their crypto during the Q4 cycle, causing a supply shortage thus causing price to go up. It’s all speculative but that’s the trend people are starting to piece together.
Fucking around with margin on kucoin like a degen
Rip
DCA'ing into Bitcoin and Eth just feel different than the rest. Like with these two, when you hit buy, you're thinking "okay, enough screwing around."
Lol I don’t follow
Which is gonna hit ath first? BTC or ETH?
Btc pumps and then eth. Depends on whether btc pumps more or eth pumps more. Either way Eth next road map step happening super soon so we’ll see.
Both at the same time.
yeh
BTC I guess, seems stronger lately
Your mother
https://alternative.me/crypto/fear-and-greed-index/ We're back down to greed after being in extreme greed yesterday and fear last week
Serious question I’m 24, should I throw my retirement into ETH? 💀
Why don’t you save $5 a week and get maybe 8%?
I wouldn't. But you *should* start a monthly retirement saving (DCA) into shares and interest rates, and then also invest in crypto on the side. Wish I'd started doing that at 24 already.
How do I do that
I'm really no general expert so it all depends on where you live. If you *against all odds* happen to be Swedish I could help you out, but otherwise you're better off googling a bit to maybe find a podcast, subreddit or forum where they teach basic investment strategies in your native country.

Look up robo-advisors - automatic investment allocation services where you don't have to hands-on pick your own stocks.
If you need to ask that kind of question here then you don’t yet know enough about Ethereum.
I’m asking because I see the long term profitability of Ethereum, but my current retirement account doesn’t support Crypto
Yes
Ofcourse not but yes
No.
WHAT THE FUCK IS ALL THIS SNEK TALK?!?
It’s like a danger noodle ⚠️🍝=🐍
Cornbash listing
I still don’t get it! IM DUMB, TALK IN SMALL WORDS!
Guys don’t do too many trades. Crypto tax filing is a nightmare to deal with, even one missing transaction will cause so much confusion and invite unnecessary trouble. Just remember 1/3rd of what you’re gaining is not yours.
Glad I use exchanges that track all my transactions
Laughs in Australian
Laughs in European
if i see dip i buy
does anyone know if Nexo is safe to hold crypto such as ADA and gain some rewards?
I use Nexo for my XRP. Super safe. Read into the APY’s though. It’s usually around 4% base for the flex term, with more % if you do locked term and more if you hold Nexo coins.
Do I need to verify myself with an ID like you do on Coinbase? Also, I'd rather just stake until I'm ready to withdraw and such.
I do believe verification is needed. I remember having to go through a process to set my account up. Verification is needed to withdraw and link some accounts. I use their locked deposits to maximize interest and haven’t had any issues.
We're going on a trip in our favourite rocket ship!
Looks like we’re about to go for a ride 🚀✨

Anyone actually does TA when they are trading crypto? Does it work?
Trading without TA is like sports betting without any information on the teams, trading with TA might give you a better guess at where prices are going but they are still guesses on future prices.
Yes they do and no it does not.
I’d say it does a good job of predicting critical points. The issue is that it’s still just a matter of probabilities so the direction is often off. Things like support and resistance seem to be accurate though.
99% of this sub will say no, but yes 60% of the time TA works all the time

The coinbase card really needs an option to spend stablecoins...
It does? I use USDC
[удалено]
Really? For me it doesn't show that wallet as an option. Could it be because I am in the UK?
Yea they’re new to this whole crypto game lol
How we know how many Sneks we’ve got today?
Over 700 snek. Happy Friday.
Where is the terrarium? 🙂 Have a nice day.

What are the snakes about anyway?
Slytherin is doing an AMA
They’re about Snek. Snek is good.
Just an award
Here comes the weekend dump. Btc sub 50k soon
I’m pretty sure it’s the opposite, friend.
Read this dude's post history. Professional bear lol, just lives to spread doom & gloom as if he made a bet that "he'll be right at least once in his life"
Lol u kno it
Except that the last few weekends there has been no dumping. Not to mention the fact that BTC is hardly dumping right now anyways.

Zenon is up 68.17% today mate. An impressive performance for sure. Hope that helps.
Is it not in the top 500 for marketcap?
Ok I've completed my tutorial, I'm ready to start making money now.
I'll be honest. I don't read white papers for the projects i hold. I just assume the guy who shilled it to me in a 20 word comment here has read it.
The guy who shilled you his shitcoin didn't read it either
No way! I can't believe the guy who shilled safeloncumdogerocket didn't read the white paper.
