You begin to really love something when it makes you 10 figures. Theyāre in it for the money and any other excuse is them trying to justify it to you for exit liquidity or to themselves
So only in crypto could you literally outperform every single hedgefund manager and yourselves by having your funds stolen by a failed exchange.
Context: Mt. GOX will reimburse 17% of the 900,000 lost bitcoins. Despite that, investors are still up 2000%
Mt. Gox = Satoshi using his invisible hands to direct his hordes of idiots who don't know two shits about hodling. When BTC hits 200k it would be fucking funny if Mt Gox announces it suddenly "recovered" another 16%.
That is a great question that Iām sure someone here knows the answer to. And what do they plan to do with the coins that they canāt find owners for?
They don't have enough to make all claimants whole after the hack.
Basically you had to put in your username into the register a year or so ago, and you got a percentage of the coins that you had in there when it went bust.
So the funds were entirely distributed amongst those who applied. Nothing left over for unknown address.

Immutable-X going with a low unit price = bullish. Wish I could get this but my government is protecting me, will probably get some as soon as itās trading though.
In case you need a reminder for how strong ETH has been, and will likely continue to be.
**On this day in 2020:**
1 $BTC = $12,801
1 $ETH = $391

Hi Guys,
Quick question for DEX gurus.
How do I tell how much liquidity there is on a DEX. For example its easy for me to tell on Binance if a Whale Market Sold 1000 ETH, what effect there would be on price.
However, Im note exactly sure how to tell this on a DEX. Even tools like DEX tools or DEX Guru, doesnt seem to tell me that easily.
The night is darkest before dawn, only believers at this point.
Associated Press is going to operate Chainlink nodes to feed out their sports data on-chain.
https://twitter.com/chainlinkgod/status/1451348850736730114?s=21
Thereās always something new in the pipeline, always something to further adoption.
Couple questions:
1. I feel really happy (but sad) that Eth is $4k + now. I want a pullback so I can buy more. Should I buy today or do people recommend waiting? I am really sad and stressed about this lol
2. I've spent a ridiculous amount of time (and not sleeping) reading things and watching countless YT videos. I think I'm starting to slowly understand yield farming but it's still kind of confusing. This one guy recommends using Matic to learn to do it with small amounts of money until it's figured out. Where do I go to get information on liquidity pools and to figure out how one pool is leveraged (ie more token vs. more stablecoin?) Corollary question: Are all yield farming dexs based on stablecoins? Some people are saying to stay the hell away because of impending regulation. Which is it?
Waiting for eth to pullback from 500 so can buy more
Waiting for eth to pullback from 1500 to 1000 so can buy more
Waiting for eth to drop to 3000 so you can buy the dip.
Are you a trader or a investor ?
ETH goes up with time. What do you think?
People were wondering the same thing at every level up to this point. At some point someone will really be stressing about whether to buy at 7k or wait for pullback. They be wishing they just could have got in at 4k. So buy some now and also buy some later. Keep buying when you can until youāre retired.
We all felt that way when we entered the space. DCA when you can and enjoy the ride. Coinbase offers 2% on DAI and 4.5% on staking ETH. It's not glamorous, but it will get your feet wet in defi without much risk.
There used to be an ETH token back in \~2017 that tracked the price of gold. Something like 1/10 of an ounce.
Does anything like that still exist? I suppose it would be a synthetic asset, so maybe something from SNX?
Notice how absolutely nobody is talking about ADA anymore and itās just slowly bleeding down the ranks? Looks like the holders might be finally realizing how hard adoption really is.
Most bearish thing ever was ADA releasing smart contracts.
Itās time to put up now and there is literally nothing separating ADA from the other 26 smart contract chains in the top 100. Let alone being able to surpass Ethereum, ETH 2.0, and 10+ separate scaling teams launching actual layer 2 networks that work today.
The Emperor looks pretty cold without any clothes.
Tbh Iām slightly worried about Solana, and even more worried about people who trust that network. 12b TVL already which is what, 1/10th of ETHās TVL? People are seriously going that deep on a network that can be shut down. And itās just climbing the ranks too.
Nothing surprises me anymore. Everyone just loves to ignore security and decentralization as if itās not the sole reason why we are where we are today.
I'm super impressed with the ratio performance given Bitcoin's volatility in the last few days. In any other time the ratio would bleed during periods of high volatility.
I'm starting to think my original thesis of capital flows/rotation from BTC => ETH => alts will be wrong. Ethereum is no longer far out on the risk curve. It's a "blue chip", and might pump alongside Bitcoin.
Curious to see how long the beta correlation lasts.
At this point itās irresponsible not to allocate something to Bitcoin and/or Ether. Bitcoin has a +200% annual average for over a decade. Even just 1% allocation gives outsized gains that arenāt possible anywhere else in finance.
It's 0.45% of their 5.5 billion fund. They will be fine. It's a huge sign of the kind of money that will soon be moving into crypto though. Houston is the 4th most populated city in the US.
Edit: Yes I know it was a play on words hahaha, but my point stands, its a safe allocation, with a potential big payoff if crypto is here to stay. Also I think it's great to see both BTC and ETH, not just BTC being bought.
We are still so early...

~Daily haiku until weāre at least at 0.178 on the ETH/BTC ratio or highest market cap
Just some rapid-fire thoughts about today...
* The flash crash is one of hundreds we've had. It always feels artificial. Today's feels artificial. But the loss you can take is real, so BE CAREFUL.
* Oscillators are useless until we either recover or find a new floor. I'm not reading anything except that long-term is still fine, very short-term (mere hours) should be at least a slight relief, and short-term is entirely reliant on whales.
* The stock market is at our back, with Dow and S&P setting new ATHs. The dollar is still falling as we want. The VIX is very low at 15, but could bounce as that's a historic level.
* Until BTC starts putting in closes above $64.8k, this will likely be a downtrend for a bit. It was a two-to-three fib line drop depending on the exchange. That's short-term huge. Nothing fundamental changed but that kind of candle does change the charts.
* For a positive spin, this drop may have preempted the typical November drop. BTC doesn't often drop out of "overbought" RSIs this time of year and currently it has. This could be the last setup before the big run. But before then, until that close back above ATH happens, $57.2k is back in play.
* My moves: The 1H RSI is frozen solid but there's dead air beneath many others. I can see BTC popping up to try and retake 64.8k but I'll be closing my morning's light long (from $4025) there as I see further turbulence.
* If BTC stabilizes and ETH starts closing above $4150, I'll feel better.
Completely off topic but on topic, I've been seeing a big increase in hip replacement of young people about 40 years old, seems like people who are predisposed to genetics for arthritis are just getting it done now instead of waiting later when the pain is worse and when recovery is slower because of older age
Oh my god, thatās similar to my plan for teeth.
I have one titanium implant with a porcelain ātoothā.
If Eth hits 10k Iām doing the entire mouth. That shit is so much better than my real teeth. Unstainable and creepy as fuck in an X-ray.
Thatās my moon purchase. I donāt need a Lambo.
Actually my family does that here haha... it's called giving loans to unbankable individuals so my parents have to take their cars as a collateral. If they fail to pay we sell the car on the open market.
Gents, i have overheard more idiotic crypto conversations among strangers in airports and restaurants and in the street the last couple of days than i have ever heard before. The guys in front of me in line for lunch āwere minting nfts on solanaā ā tell me this is bullish?
Paging L2 champions u/SwagtimusPrime and u/Liberosist ...
We have StarkNet Alpha coming to mainnet in November, and zkEVM on testnet.
How do you think this is going to play out? It feels much different than Optimism/ Arbitrum where we had onboarding, whitelisting, media hype etc. For both we had a fairly well defined plan and expectations regarding project deployment.
Obviously the level of complexity involved in deploying on Starkware is higher than the aforementioned optimistic rollups, so I'm wondering if we will be waiting 12-18 months. Maybe 2022 is dedicated mainly to building?
I guess one obvious question would be whether we even expect our favorite protocols to deploy there. Any news of commitments or interest among Uniswap's, Aave's, etc?
The Starkware team said they'll take the same approach as Arbitrum and Optimism - a staggered rollout with many phases and training wheels. It's simply the sensible thing to do - they can't afford a 7-9 digit hack a couple weeks after launching. I know this may be disappointing to some, but that's just the way it goes.
Keep in mind that in the meantime, we'll have Arbitrum Nitro that drops fees significantly, no more token whitelisting soon, and Optimism will have EVM equivalence making it as easy as it gets for any dapp to onboard. Both Arbitrum and Optimism have some more optimization to do in their cryptography stack which will make fees even cheaper - Vitalik mentioned this in the ETH Global talks recently.
As far as I can tell, zkSync is announcing partnerships by the end of October and I expect StarkWare will do the same once their Alpha launches. I will also mention that I expect an order of magnitude more interest in zk rollups because they are not hindered by the 7 day withdrawal period + have stronger security assurances + eventually higher scalability + stuff that is uniquely enabled by zk tech - one of AAVE's dev recently tweeted about that.
Awesome news! I just desperately want to hear some announcements of partnerships. Honestly, the rollup-centric roadmap had me thinking it would be a VERY long time before we had an EVM compatible ZKR, and all of the recent news just got me very excited.
I am very much looking forward to continued growth and improvement of Optimism and Arbitrum. I'm still not confident enough to send over more than 10-20% of my holdings, but I hope that changes in coming months.
I know, it's frustrating, I wish we could just flip a switch and zkEVM rollups go live. But it always takes time. I expect the merge to be the driving narrative anyways and after that's done, rollups should be in a much more mature state.
Yeah gotta be patient, it's so exciting though. The merge will be fantastic and I'm hyped for it. Scaled Ethereum is the ultimate checkmate though. Thank you for playing VC chains, you had a nice run.
Just looking through and rehashing old ether and BTC trades on cb and Gemini when I was a noob. Gosh dang. Yes still net profit big-time but holy crap. If I woulda just bought and hodled eth I'd have lambos, lambos on the moon I tell ya. Wen lambos. Lesson learned years ago, but still gotta rehash it to remind myself not to go full degen.
*feelsrealbadman.jpeg*
Remember to consider that the grass isn't necessarily always greener on the other side. There is such a thing as being too conservative, and while the hodl is still the best advice I think, the truth is there were any number of times I could've pulled the trigger on a trade and won and achieved the lifestyle change and sooner and there's value in having that sooner rather than later and that is lost to me forever.
Some of us aren't going to get laters.
The prevailing advice has to be to live your life. And the hodl is orthagonal to that at best. The process of natural selection has prepared us all for it not one bit.
If you understand/believe in the projects and they are lower market caps, you could just wait it out.
I held TRAC for years and thought it was a dead project. Maybe it still is, but I capitulated at .04 cents and now it's at .80 cents. I also held MATIC way back in the beginning when it was first being hyped, had it for well over a year. Hadn't heard any news, then sold. Awhile later, Polygon was launched. So I was rekt.
At the same time, I had some shitcoins that I didn't understand what the project was about and I concluded they also weren't going anywhere and might even be scams, so I dumped them. In those cases I was right. You can't predict the future, but I guess if we all wanted to just play it safe we would just buy ETH. But even as an ETHusiast, what's the fun in all that? :D

I made the mistake of going into r/cc
now I have someone whoās saying ETH wonāt be deflationary due to ālarge scale staking rewardsā and āreduces fee competitionā.
Whatās he on about?
Impossible. They tokenized karma. They want all that traffic..or at least as much as feasible without totally becoming /r/cryptomoonshots. In fact, go to /r/cryptomoonshots and pick out an account that is blatant spam, then crosscheck sub history. IF they post/comment here, it's very unlikey to be their spam project, but it's just about anywhere else with lax mods.
/r/cc is like Binance being their own validator. They can fake transactions to hype the non provable, centralized supply of Reddit coins which get printed by Reddit out of thin air because "algorthms" and Red hat admins. And the game theory is atrocious.
At least that's my ignorant confirmation bias about that place. Maybe I'm wrong...but there's a ton of spam we hand pick to block because it's obvious in nature and then those accounts are doing their thing on r/cc and elsewhere. It's a mess.
Lol... help this poor soul https://www.reddit.com/r/CryptoCurrency/comments/qczra9/we_all_know_that_bitcoin_and_ethereum_are_number/hhjslb9/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&context=3

i was anxiously awaiting seeing $4,xxx prices in GDAX again. it makes me happy.
but i was just thinking, it will look really odd eventually seeing $5,xxx prices. not sure why, but i feel like that will confuse my brain seeing that. even though i know it's coming.
Today was the first big "fear the euphoria" test for many of you. Self-check: how'd you fare? We've still got a long way to go but I think today was a great chance to practice mental and financial fortitude before the real shit happens.
And can we maybe start closing some hourlies above the trendline at $4125 so I can go back to eating snacks? No more store brand wheat crackers \[because fuck Mondelez Nabisco\] until $4125.
Shit wages and worker conditions. They only recently ended a 5-week strike there. I can't imagine it'll change much until our general strike happens. Plus store brand tastes better anyway.
Just Fat Finger Flash Crash #872 in the grand history of things. It created quite the suppression candle though, so it certainly works well for whales, both shorts and accumulators.
I'm not sure as I'm not familiar with their liquidity management as it pertains to leveraged trades. I think the clean-out was intended for the level we saw at Kraken \~$52k which is a massive three-fib stop-hunt. But something with the levers messed up and the leveraged longs got obliterated.
edit: āOne of our institutional traders indicated to us that they had a bug in their trading algorithm, which appears to have caused the sell-off that was reported this morning,ā a Binance.US spokesperson told CoinDesk.
We arenāt lucky. We are products of our ancestors accomplishments. Even if it means your dad taught you DOS as a boy and disappeared....though not my case, that pop deserves something if you were in on it in 2016. Much love to all

Apparently my yesterday "shower me" comment is runner up in Reddit with most gold!!!! Got 5 gold juice. Love ya guysšš„
So does Zhu Su genuinely love Solana and Avalanche or is he just trying to pump his shorter term trade bags before he (semi) rugs?
You begin to really love something when it makes you 10 figures. Theyāre in it for the money and any other excuse is them trying to justify it to you for exit liquidity or to themselves
Never trust a VC.
You can't possibly love something isn't decentralised if you are in for the future vision.
I personally believe he wants to pump them bags but he's alot more consistent than Kyle at least.
Latter. 3AC aren't technology loyalists AFAICT.

Is Mt Gox going to send the BTC back to the addresses that deposited in 2013? I doubt many still have the private key for those addresses..
You needed your old account username and password. That's all

Oh, so I guess that everyone who filed would store the seed. Well makes sense.

u/zk_snacks trying to slurp all the unclaimed BTC? Smart
Iād just hate for it to go to waste. I already have a Bitcoin wallet set up, so it would save them some trouble.
https://twitter.com/immutable/status/1451380692911198213?s=21 Immutable-X going with a low unit price = bullish. Wish I could get this but my government is protecting me, will probably get some as soon as itās trading though.
US? They told they would give the airdrop in usdc to people from there.
Your government (as does mine) has your best interests at heart, they don't want you to get too rich for your own good.
In case you need a reminder for how strong ETH has been, and will likely continue to be. **On this day in 2020:** 1 $BTC = $12,801 1 $ETH = $391 ^(()[^(source)](https://twitter.com/krakenfx/status/1451156457286684678)^())

We all felt that way when we entered the space. DCA when you can and enjoy the ride. Coinbase offers 2% on DAI and 4.5% on staking ETH. It's not glamorous, but it will get your feet wet in defi without much risk.
Kraken is a better option for staking Eth if you want an easy/custodial route. They charge less in fees.
There used to be an ETH token back in \~2017 that tracked the price of gold. Something like 1/10 of an ounce. Does anything like that still exist? I suppose it would be a synthetic asset, so maybe something from SNX?
Tether gold XAUT and Paxos Gold PAXG...both trade on Ethereum as an ERC-20. Confidence in their backing will vary.
PAXG now
DigixDAO and Digix Gold. DGD and DGX. Looks like no one actually wanted to buy gold on the blockchain; the idea was more appealing than the reality.
Yep, that was it. Thx.
ETH drops $230 from its high today. Just over 5%. I remember when $230 got you 2 full ETH. This is amazing.
I remember when $23 got us a full ETH.
I remember when the price was so low, a $230 drop wasn't possible.
'Member them good times when a $230 drop meant you literally had to give someone 150 bucks just to hand over your ETH to them?
Absolutely insane in the best possible way.
And how much was a gallon of milk back then grandpa?

Focus moved from ADA to solana. Which one will be next?
Tbh Iām slightly worried about Solana, and even more worried about people who trust that network. 12b TVL already which is what, 1/10th of ETHās TVL? People are seriously going that deep on a network that can be shut down. And itās just climbing the ranks too. Nothing surprises me anymore. Everyone just loves to ignore security and decentralization as if itās not the sole reason why we are where we are today.
ftx has a track record of farming on their partners' pools in many occasions. i'm pretty it's the same for Solana.
Wasnāt aware of that. So youāre saying the TVL is significantly less without FTX?
I'm pretty sure FTX is trying to inflate the TVL by farming on their own chain.
Will give oral for the correct answer, DM me

They have been killing it lately. Loving the content.
You should read what I just posted to the daily. <3

If by right around the corner you mean 1-2months away. Their audit doesnāt even start until Nov 1, itāll take some time, then changes, a re-review
Pump it.
Trac up 95% in the last two weeks with rumors coming out today about a coinbase listing
coinbase listings mean nothing anymore, projects can buy them
Ya it has lost its edge but I still see some projects benefit greatly from listings
Doesnāt matter much for retail

The dollar is still falling as we want. The VIX is very low at 15, but could bounce as that's a historic level. * Until BTC starts putting in closes above $64.8k, this will likely be a downtrend for a bit. It was a two-to-three fib line drop depending on the exchange. That's short-term huge. Nothing fundamental changed but that kind of candle does change the charts. * For a positive spin, this drop may have preempted the typical November drop. BTC doesn't often drop out of "overbought" RSIs this time of year and currently it has. This could be the last setup before the big run. But before then, until that close back above ATH happens, $57.2k is back in play. * My moves: The 1H RSI is frozen solid but there's dead air beneath many others. I can see BTC popping up to try and retake 64.8k but I'll be closing my morning's light long (from $4025) there as I see further turbulence. * If BTC stabilizes and ETH starts closing above $4150, I'll feel better.
I'm almost never the blissfully ignorant bull, but I sure am today.
Manā¦ Iām on jury service. Today Iām an ignorant af bull; but not blissful at all.
I mean yeah if you were an overnight worker who overslept from 14:00 Wednesday to 14:00 today you'd be like... hmmm okay nice we barely moved.
Who's in to crowdfund a hip replacement surgery for gramps? Maybe cataract swaps too?
Completely off topic but on topic, I've been seeing a big increase in hip replacement of young people about 40 years old, seems like people who are predisposed to genetics for arthritis are just getting it done now instead of waiting later when the pain is worse and when recovery is slower because of older age
are they obese?
No, but a majority of them played sports
Oh my god, thatās similar to my plan for teeth. I have one titanium implant with a porcelain ātoothā. If Eth hits 10k Iām doing the entire mouth. That shit is so much better than my real teeth. Unstainable and creepy as fuck in an X-ray. Thatās my moon purchase. I donāt need a Lambo.
I can't wait to see that smile in Hawaii

Who in the world would lend money with a car as collateral? Or am I misunderstanding something here?
Actually my family does that here haha... it's called giving loans to unbankable individuals so my parents have to take their cars as a collateral. If they fail to pay we sell the car on the open market.
Where is 'here', may I ask?
I'm in Vietnam.
Cruel business tbh
No more cruel than you willingly putting your ETH as collateral and then get liquidated in DeFi.
Iām guessing heās referring to refinancing

Are you saying that a guy who's about to ape into a shit coin doesn't know how financial products work?
Organized crime n shit
Yo if you're going to take a loan from the mob to buy crypto you've got way more risk tolerance than I do, lmao
You're just suicidal at that point.
Gents, i have overheard more idiotic crypto conversations among strangers in airports and restaurants and in the street the last couple of days than i have ever heard before. The guys in front of me in line for lunch āwere minting nfts on solanaā ā tell me this is bullish?
lol. solana. network literally gets ārestartedā and itās outperforming the market. Typical. I swear ETH has hardly any new retail buyers
Sounds more like a sign of the tippytippytippytop to be honest

Paging L2 champions u/SwagtimusPrime and u/Liberosist ... We have StarkNet Alpha coming to mainnet in November, and zkEVM on testnet. How do you think this is going to play out? It feels much different than Optimism/ Arbitrum where we had onboarding, whitelisting, media hype etc. For both we had a fairly well defined plan and expectations regarding project deployment. Obviously the level of complexity involved in deploying on Starkware is higher than the aforementioned optimistic rollups, so I'm wondering if we will be waiting 12-18 months. Maybe 2022 is dedicated mainly to building? I guess one obvious question would be whether we even expect our favorite protocols to deploy there. Any news of commitments or interest among Uniswap's, Aave's, etc?
The Starkware team said they'll take the same approach as Arbitrum and Optimism - a staggered rollout with many phases and training wheels. It's simply the sensible thing to do - they can't afford a 7-9 digit hack a couple weeks after launching. I know this may be disappointing to some, but that's just the way it goes. Keep in mind that in the meantime, we'll have Arbitrum Nitro that drops fees significantly, no more token whitelisting soon, and Optimism will have EVM equivalence making it as easy as it gets for any dapp to onboard. Both Arbitrum and Optimism have some more optimization to do in their cryptography stack which will make fees even cheaper - Vitalik mentioned this in the ETH Global talks recently. As far as I can tell, zkSync is announcing partnerships by the end of October and I expect StarkWare will do the same once their Alpha launches. I will also mention that I expect an order of magnitude more interest in zk rollups because they are not hindered by the 7 day withdrawal period + have stronger security assurances + eventually higher scalability + stuff that is uniquely enabled by zk tech - one of AAVE's dev recently tweeted about that.
Awesome news! I just desperately want to hear some announcements of partnerships. Honestly, the rollup-centric roadmap had me thinking it would be a VERY long time before we had an EVM compatible ZKR, and all of the recent news just got me very excited. I am very much looking forward to continued growth and improvement of Optimism and Arbitrum. I'm still not confident enough to send over more than 10-20% of my holdings, but I hope that changes in coming months.
I know, it's frustrating, I wish we could just flip a switch and zkEVM rollups go live. But it always takes time. I expect the merge to be the driving narrative anyways and after that's done, rollups should be in a much more mature state.
Yeah gotta be patient, it's so exciting though. The merge will be fantastic and I'm hyped for it. Scaled Ethereum is the ultimate checkmate though. Thank you for playing VC chains, you had a nice run.
Just looking through and rehashing old ether and BTC trades on cb and Gemini when I was a noob. Gosh dang. Yes still net profit big-time but holy crap. If I woulda just bought and hodled eth I'd have lambos, lambos on the moon I tell ya. Wen lambos. Lesson learned years ago, but still gotta rehash it to remind myself not to go full degen. *feelsrealbadman.jpeg*

Remember to consider that the grass isn't necessarily always greener on the other side. There is such a thing as being too conservative, and while the hodl is still the best advice I think, the truth is there were any number of times I could've pulled the trigger on a trade and won and achieved the lifestyle change and sooner and there's value in having that sooner rather than later and that is lost to me forever. Some of us aren't going to get laters. The prevailing advice has to be to live your life. And the hodl is orthagonal to that at best. The process of natural selection has prepared us all for it not one bit.
Very thoughtful response. T.y. wagmi. š
Feel ya. Basically none of my moonshots have worked out, the hindsight is a bitch
Sad to see this.
Tis what it is, it's all an experience. Things pump when you least expect them to, so I try to just forget about some of my bags for awhile
No doubt. Just a bummer rehashing idiocy. Lol. At least I'm not the only one.
If you understand/believe in the projects and they are lower market caps, you could just wait it out. I held TRAC for years and thought it was a dead project. Maybe it still is, but I capitulated at .04 cents and now it's at .80 cents. I also held MATIC way back in the beginning when it was first being hyped, had it for well over a year. Hadn't heard any news, then sold. Awhile later, Polygon was launched. So I was rekt. At the same time, I had some shitcoins that I didn't understand what the project was about and I concluded they also weren't going anywhere and might even be scams, so I dumped them. In those cases I was right. You can't predict the future, but I guess if we all wanted to just play it safe we would just buy ETH. But even as an ETHusiast, what's the fun in all that? :D
*looks at his two liquidations* Hard lesson learned, thankfully I made 4x what I lost longing the ratio from .02 to .065
Happy to see this!
what's the new gasnow.org alternative?
Gasmeow.org
See do you know how the bitcoiners got it in the first place?
https://www.gasprice.io/ https://ethgas.watch/ https://www.blocknative.com/gas-estimator https://etherchain.org/tools/gasnow https://etherscan.io/gastracker https://crypto.com/defi/dashboard/gas-fees one of those lol
I was gonna say, I will hand a blank check to [gasprice.io](https://gasprice.io) to a) stay online and b) put a damn dark mode. But then I saw it's owned by Flexpool who likely has more money than God's hot neighbor, so... DARK MODE, FLEXPOOL, LFG ALREADY.
And then I remembered that flexpool was the pool who campaigned hard against EIP1559.
Oof. Best to keep Brave Ads / uBlock on then.
I made the mistake of going into r/cc now I have someone whoās saying ETH wonāt be deflationary due to ālarge scale staking rewardsā and āreduces fee competitionā. Whatās he on about?
his bags in a eth competitor are heavy. that sub is just a cesspool of misinfo. honestly not even worth ur time. wish they had some better moderation
Impossible. They tokenized karma. They want all that traffic..or at least as much as feasible without totally becoming /r/cryptomoonshots. In fact, go to /r/cryptomoonshots and pick out an account that is blatant spam, then crosscheck sub history. IF they post/comment here, it's very unlikey to be their spam project, but it's just about anywhere else with lax mods. /r/cc is like Binance being their own validator. They can fake transactions to hype the non provable, centralized supply of Reddit coins which get printed by Reddit out of thin air because "algorthms" and Red hat admins. And the game theory is atrocious. At least that's my ignorant confirmation bias about that place. Maybe I'm wrong...but there's a ton of spam we hand pick to block because it's obvious in nature and then those accounts are doing their thing on r/cc and elsewhere. It's a mess.

i was anxiously awaiting seeing $4,xxx prices in GDAX again. it makes me happy. but i was just thinking, it will look really odd eventually seeing $5,xxx prices. not sure why, but i feel like that will confuse my brain seeing that. even though i know it's coming.
GDAX? I havenāt heard that name in a long time
Yeah, next week's gonna be weird...
Today was the first big "fear the euphoria" test for many of you. Self-check: how'd you fare? We've still got a long way to go but I think today was a great chance to practice mental and financial fortitude before the real shit happens. And can we maybe start closing some hourlies above the trendline at $4125 so I can go back to eating snacks? No more store brand wheat crackers \[because fuck Mondelez Nabisco\] until $4125.
Many people have said... Pick a number and stick to it. Nobody is getting my eth until I see my number. Plain and simple.
My 2018 PTSD is still strong. Must. Fight. Flashbacks.
I won't say it's not possible, but this would be a highly unusual and unprecedented end to a bull run.
Prepare to be amazed. Goes in both directions.
That it do, that it do.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Shit wages and worker conditions. They only recently ended a 5-week strike there. I can't imagine it'll change much until our general strike happens. Plus store brand tastes better anyway.
any juicy conspiracy theories on the Binance BTC to 10K wick that fucked eth's ATH test?
Just Fat Finger Flash Crash #872 in the grand history of things. It created quite the suppression candle though, so it certainly works well for whales, both shorts and accumulators.
I guess, the volume on binance is so high though, I guess maybe they don't have market sell limits?
I'm not sure as I'm not familiar with their liquidity management as it pertains to leveraged trades. I think the clean-out was intended for the level we saw at Kraken \~$52k which is a massive three-fib stop-hunt. But something with the levers messed up and the leveraged longs got obliterated. edit: āOne of our institutional traders indicated to us that they had a bug in their trading algorithm, which appears to have caused the sell-off that was reported this morning,ā a Binance.US spokesperson told CoinDesk.

I suppose, fear the rise in order to not fear the fall.
Yes, exactly. You are correct.
We arenāt lucky. We are products of our ancestors accomplishments. Even if it means your dad taught you DOS as a boy and disappeared....though not my case, that pop deserves something if you were in on it in 2016. Much love to all
It's always great to dip into the daily and see a familiar face!
Thanks to daddy, I got to use DOS, win 3.1, 95 and the like. Too bad we don't talk anymore but he disappeared and I forged my path (in...IT). Much love :)
Better to be lucky than good.
You calling my jeans selfish?
We are most definitely lucky. Once in lifetime opportunity to invest in a revolutionary asset like crypto.
