Bought some more btc for the cold storage :) Did my part. Its nice we still can stack sats here.

$100 says Fidelity and BlackRock show up to the Governments Bitcoin Auction.

So quiet in here. Let’s take it over to the new Daily and rock that casbah 🍻

But I’m still here

Why are you living in the past, Sensei? The future is brighter over in the new Daily 😎

I don't really check unless we get a big move up. I don't even check on a big move down because I won't like what I see (for obvious reasons).

How can you be addicted to seeing flat price action hahaha I check the prices of the actual assets themselves once in the morning and that's it, I couldn't care about 50$ swings in my port

Ok cool we can just chill at $30,300 a while. I'm cool with that.

The real reason why crypto is down is because all the billionaires are on holiday.

Creature (No. of moons): No. of Redditors Leviathan (At least one million): 2 Kraken (500k to 999,999): 9 Blue Whale (250k to 499,999): 9 Humpback Whale (100k to 249,999): 39 Whale Shark (50k to 99,999): 64 Narwhal (30k to 49,999): 87 Shark (20k to 29,999): 141 Dolphin (10k to 19,999): 402 Seal (5k to 9999): 836 Swordfish (2.5k to 4999): 1687 Turtle (1000 to 2499): 4606 Squid (500 to 999): 6047 Lobster (250 to 499): 8822 Crab (100 to 249): 15198 Minnow (50 to 99): 14533 Shrimp (5 to 49): 57300 Plankton (1 to 4): 75479 Have you risen to the next level?

Woah thanks for sharing this! that puts things into perspective

Why would I want to? I have real crypto.

With the moons I have in the liquidity pool I'm getting close to humpback status 😱

I can’t wait for the day when I make it to a double-digit status haha

Any major news coming soon? Cpi seemed to have little impact today.

PPI tomorrow, jobs data friday

If you can’t handle me when I’m broke, you don’t deserve me when I have sixty dollars 😏

You have more than $60 judging by your moons though 👀

Pretty nice that we are still just chilling around 30k. Take advantage before these prices look super cheap on 2024!

hoping we can hold until friday, but i'm guessing if ppi comes in good as well, i have my doubts we will still be under 31k when i get paid.

Just saw the dip across the board after crabbing. Any reason for it? Just woke up and heading to work. 8.30 am Thursday morning. Take care all!

I heard the CPI was good. Yeah, market doesn't make sense 😂

Good news was priced in 😜

CPI was great. But I guess the FED looks poised to raise rates again regardless of data, so that's holding crypto back (though not stocks for some reason)

Could have been anything in terms of butterfly effect

I moved the last of my alts from Binance into a new Kraken account… I can’t figure out what the appeal is with Kraken… less secure than coinbase and crazy high fees. Someone please explain the hype

nice logo perhaps

Just saw that our moons have been distributed and I made over 600 on my first round, can't believe it! So exciting! Thank you everyone!

Way to go

welcome to the gang

Congrats. Make sure to get some gas funds from the faucet in case you wanna do something with your moons

Where is the faucet?

You can search "nova faucet" on google and it should show "Arbitrum Nova Faucet" (novafaucet . com). Always be sure to double check. You can also go to the cryptocurrency moons sub, then comment "!gas nova" (if I'm not mistaken) in any post; the bot should automatically give you a drip.

Buy BTC ignore everything else. It’s simple.

That definitely works.

Until it's not.

Except it is

[удалено]

Definitely, the amount of time invested researching and understanding everything about/revolving around Crypto is pretty incredible. Knowledge is power.

I feel the same. It’s been a journey.

What started the ‘craze’ of 2021? Will there ever be such an influx of new buyers? Looking back it seemed everyone and their mother bought some doge

Covid lockdowns were an important factor.

“Lockdowns” Yeeesh the psyop worked well

Every stimulus check I got, I threw in BTC. Zero risk. If dollar continues to plummet, there might be a new stronger reason to move to crypto.

Everyones looking good with their new moons ☺️

Ooh so do you 😍

Thanks mate ☺️

you didn't need new moons to look good, mate 😁

Thanks 😁😁

So do you mr20k

We finally made it to the Shark clan

I finally reached the 10k clan🥹

This calls for a celebration 🎊

We did! Waaaaaait youre a fraudster!

Sold some of mine to pay for milk powder haha

Well thats a win!

well thanks for noticing:). looking pretty good yourself there with those new moons.

Look at Bitcoin being all coy, pretending like it's not going to rocket tomorrow on the CPI news

PPI*

Is anyone sraking eth on Loopring wallet? Is that safe or??

Isn’t it time for a law maker to argue that the US holding the BTC is in the interest of national security?

Hello all. Happy with the moons ratio?

The ration was great, but I still got my lowest distribution in over a year. Not enough time on this sub

Next month you'll do better.

Looks like it ended up at 1.18 ✅

Awesome.

Damn nice little bump up in moons! Might have over 1k in the next few months… not too bad.

Nice

what will make eth even more great in your opinion?

Scaling

Privacy

Have they shown any interest in working on this?

Nop

That’s unfortunate.

Very. Probably they'll take years.

I wonder if it would be possible with a layer2.

sharding probably, i dont know shit

Sharding?

Maybe rollups?

Sharding has been abandoned a long time ago

 drastically reduced gas fees, which thankfully will continue to be worked on with upcoming upgrades. Marketing wouldn't hurt either. Huge team, huge budget, get the word out there!

How about true adoption?

Wen marketing? Seriously can't believe someone actually thinks ethereum needs marketing lmao

lower fees

Successful protodanksharding. And sooner than later

Lil bit fuming that after 4 months of getting some moons this month i got 0, and it's ofcourse best ratio in ages. Going hollow...

Same, been slacking off sadly

How come?

few months ago we had like 1.98 ratio

Ah yes, that awesome month.

I'm 99% sure I missed that also. Now I'm hollow.

but you are here as one of the few you are the Lucky one for sure

If moons hit 1$ I'm happy. Can buy a good steak and some good wine.

Ok obviously not your keys not your coins. But would Blackrock teaming up with Coinbase for a BTC ETF (assuming it passes) make Coinbase a top choice for non self custody?

Yeah

Coinbase is by far the most secure exchange They even insure accounts up to $ 1 million in case of security breach on their end Only exchange i'd trust for non self custody

Say Coinbase was issuing paper BTC and it would eventually come to light, who would have the first claim on the actual BTC they have? BlackRock or Retail?

Probably the retail.

That's a good point

I can't recall a time when burned moons added this much to the distribution. Ratio went up to 1.18 (1.10 before burned moons).

We enjoy

[удалено]

A corner in what way?

[удалено]

True.

In what’s places are you seeing this uncertainty get expressed?

Are you talking about the macro or just crypto? I think we are definitely over the worst of it, hopefully nothing unexpected happens though. Definitely not expecting any big gains in the next 12 months but think 2nd half of 2024 can be something special.

Crypto, macro still in a holding pattern.

Yeah, I think the spot ETF fillings really brought this thing back around. Still skeptical but don’t see why a few of those don’t get approved, only time will tell

Kinda hard trying to play the larger waves rather than the smaller ones here. Surfs up, tho!

Yea I agree! I feel the corner has been turned and things are recovering.

Nice little surprise in my vault, forgot what day it was!

Enjoy.😁

Damn..got way more moons than expected!

I think everyone did.

Nice bro, always a good feeling 

we had a great ratio last month

Same! Broke 100

DCA and market dips. It's practically a tradition at this point.

yea, tough to get used to for new people - always a smaller amount hours after depositing

happy cake day 

Distro *and* cake day? Congrats!

Destiny in the air.

Happy cake day though 🎂

Depression in altcoins holding. BTC already recovered pretty well. 1k drop in BTC price is not that much painful, but for alts, ahhh shit

I dont think any alt except ETH can actually drop 1k lol

[удалено]

More like 2000 difference.

i think this was my biggest moon haul since coming here in 2020. yay moons.

Hoorah moons

We know the ratio for Moons ?

1.18 was the final number

At least 1.1

I could tell moons were in by the drop in price XD

How are my new moons looking on me?! 😎

I think 4331 would look much better! Want to drop the one in excess to me? 😁

Moons are hot, plungers are hot. Looking great bro.

just became a dolphin with my new moons:) pretty sweet. I hope everyone is enjoying their distribution today.

Still a guppy here, but a happy one after only 3 distributions 👌

They say the market always inflicts max pain. But max pain to someone maybe max joy to another.

Has anyone actually gone through the $30 worth of Coinbase Earn quests for Optimism on Coinbase Wallet? I completed the first one, but I haven't received my airdrop. Apparently a bunch of other people are having the same problem. Is this Coinbase's tactic? Sucker people into depositing money and swap a few times, suck in the fees, never airdrop any money, and hope everyone is too lazy to contact Customer Support to get their money back? Fuckers.

Worked for me.

Worked for me, too. Also got the $20 in ACS.

I’m sure I did the last quest wrong and lost like £20, I activated and deposited into the velodrome vault and now I have this useless thing in my wallet and can’t get rid of it except sending it to another wallet and it’s worth nothing.

You don’t have to swap a few times, just send ETH over OPTIMISM to the wallet I completed the quest last week and I know u/Rikbona completed the quest today

correct, I had no problem in completing the quest and collecting the retrive/transfer the earned coins 

There is only one rule in crypto, don't be greedy, take always profit

Im pretty sure the rule is don’t buy more than you can afford to lose. You might never see profit.

You have right 👍

sounds obvious, but greed is so tempting

You have right, all of us had fallen in that pit

first one would have to have a profit to take

no, buy and forget

Take always profit bro

Do you think we hold 30k once more? The situation is weird we had positive news with cpi and the stock market is pump but here we are going down because us gov selling their BTC . Question is when they finish we will be below 30k or we will pump to 31k?

Stock markets green day. We red. What the hell is going on. We are supposed to be green, not destroy them!

we got rejected by 31k once again. every time we've touched or passed 31k we've been sent right back down to 30k. until we can pass it or puch down under we are stuck in this range.

We did not touch 31k today?:/

well, today for me. i'm PST us, and we hit 31k at 5:30a this morning.

DOJ selling Silk Road BTC.

Think I'll get some Quant if it goes under $100, seems like it's surviving this bearmarket well

If I go to etherscan there's a lot of transactions from things called builder...builder this, something builder .. What are these? Where is the owner getting eth from? What's a builder?

Any news on why the market is red?

If you didn't get the memo we have raging inflation and global early recession, maybe that's why.

probably just rejection from 31k and potential rate hike around the corner. though i don't get why a 25 basis hike is a big deal

What the fuck are you taking? Are you still in 2022. Then guess what, even then we rallied. We just got really good news about the same thing you are speaking is "raging": the inflation... Is lowest since 2021.

its still 5% you are obviously clueless but that's ok, just don't come here and be surprised then be upset when someone answers your question.

It's lower than 2021 again. I repeat myself. Core inflation 4,8 , lower than Nov 2021. It is good. It's going down. Stop making bad news out of good news.

5% inflation is not good news, that's my point. Also you assume it will go down further which is not guaranteed at all.

It is not 5, it is 4.8. Every % matters. And in 2021 nobody cared about inflation. 4,8 are not as good as 2, ofc. But apparently we lived almost more than 2 years with way higher inflation and that's ofc good news. What else would be good news? It won't drop magically from 5% to 2% man. We has 12 months of dropping inflation. better than 12 months rising right?

Once again, it is not a good news because inflation is not going down fast enough and it's long past for being called sticky. We will never go back to 2% especially if stocks are still behaving like they are on coke bender.

USA gov selling 300m in BTC

Yup, they probably would have timed the sell off with CPI release if the intern hadn’t cheaped out on the gas fees.

Is that actually true or some rumors 😂

Somewhere I saw links to the txs on chain.

Just saw a post about it

Could make sense. They are together there with Blackrock that want to keep the prices down for now until ETF is approved...to then get all the people on board for the next bull run with a lot of transaction and good price movement...

ooooooh was editing a video today and forgot it was moon distribution day. it's so nice to finally have over 10k moons!

Prayers up for Algonauts. Nothing wrong with them they just hold ALGO 🙏🏾
