ETH

Don't have 3 ETH at all! 😂

fruitbliss

This is a logical fallacy as you could just as easily convert the stables into ETH right now. The only price that matters in this instance is the price in the moment

Tezos bakers have a lock up period on their stake so how is it different/ less secure in that regard compared to ETH? Tezos upgraded its consensus algorithm awhile back to mirror Tendermint and its latest upgrade (2 days ago?) improved block production randomness so the point is it keeps getting more secure and efficient.

Everyone was like lets buy before ETH merge commenced

Hey guys what is triggering ETH-pow?

MaximumStudent1839

How about how shitty the official Yoroi wallet is? Times out so often when you try to unstake. Navigation is horrible - especially trying to find stake pools. When you do transactions, sometimes it takes forever to update balance. I have tried multiple wallets from other ecosystems: MetaMask (ETH), Keplr (Cosmos), Nova (DOT), Pera Algo (Algorand), Atomex (Tezos), etc. Every one of them performs at least two leagues above Yoroi.

DCA daily little by little. Just slowly drip-dropping into BTC and ETH. I've got buy orders ready to go when/if certain prices hit, and if things get worst I'll increase the daily DCA.

JPMorgan douchbaggery aside, I’d really only spend stablecoins on purchases. Imagine buying a car in ETH and it is at $100k 10-20 years from now? Kind of hard to spend a speculative investment like you would cash

Well..we could track the same course as online gaming. OG skins have an almost mythic quality to some people. And when it’s rare? Well someone spent 150k on a CSGO gun skin. You can sort of see a similar thing happening now. There are 100 of the same avatar. But #1? Well that is considered valuable. It’s an odd part of human nature. Why did people care about the Black Knight in Fortnite? Because it “proved” you were an OG and played the game before the masses. We don’t know if this will translate or if people will even care in a month. But they seem to care now and are willing to spend 4/5 ETH to have #1 in a small qty collection.

1/3–goes to the Dry Powder reserve on Buy Day. 1/3–DCA btc/ETH 1/3–low limit orders where it seems support is solid, but below that in case MMs on a Stop Hunt spike down and break through. I even place insane dirty deep water limits. Maybe the books are thin and a whale dumps and I catch a wick. The reason is I’m trying to establish a position in multiple future scenarios. I want to be the cat that is alive and dead. If the Pi Cycle Bottom Indicator (and other signals) was correct and we already have seen the Low? Well, at least I accumulated and didn’t wait for a bottom that already printed. If there is another rip down? If it’s brutal maybe one of my super low orders is filled. If it keeps falling then I still have my Dry Powder to deploy. Well….I don’t have all of it, I used a tiny bit to buy some avatars. And that small collection has given me more memes and fun then I’ve had in crypto for months. Worth every penny. It also opened my eyes to what could be possible next Bull. I would have called you insane if you told me back in July I would rather have a Reddit avatar then add to my ETH bag. Fun, memes, forming in-jokes and forging a community is decoupled from the rest of crypto. All the madness happened during the Everything Winter. I can not fathom what shit would be like if the collection dropped last year in the middle of the Bull Run. If it all dies off in a few days it’s still a bellwether of what is possible. This avatar experiment could end a fad that popped in a small niche of Reddit. But the second I spent $50 for an avatar it felt like burning money on Apex skins. And I’m sure every Apex player would sell you a few Wraith and Loba skins for an ETH. Hell, most would sell their entire account.

Simke11

I like to do what if calculations to put me to sleep, so if NEAR was to reach market cap that SOL had at its ATH, price per coin would be around 100 USD. Regardless of this, NEAR is one alt that I plan to start stacking when I eventually decide its time to expand my portfolio from BTC and ETH.

evoxyseah

For SOV, BTC only. For general usage, ETH, ADA, ALGO, and decent blockchain with community and is working towards decentralization.

bad-crypto-advice

I recommend selling any BTC and ETH that you have because they’re only going to go lower. Coins that have been minted in the past 3 months or less have a far higher likelihood of rising tremendously, so I would invest primarily in those.

DaManJ

There are 2 things different about current environment. One, crypto is now big enough it's getting tons of regulation, regulation slows growth, and puts growth in the hands of large corporations as they are the only entities that can afford the expense of regulatory compliance. So you'll see consolidation of crypto into the hands of larger corporates and less fly by night startup projects, unless they go totally anonymous and underground. But anonymous and underground generally means there would not be much public money flowing in as there are penalties for involvement, and it is harder for public to trust anonymous illegal entities. So who will be making money next cycle? Probably Binance, FTX, Solana, Coinbase, Kraken, Bitcoin and maybe ETH. And other traditional finance entities who muscle in on crypto space.

Kricket

It’s going to be in the background and no interaction will be necessary. MasterCard is already using the ETH network. Starbucks is going to use blockchain as a backbone for their app. That’s millions of folks right there. And they are none the wiser. That’s what mass adoption truly means.

Civil_Lunch_7688

Personally I also believe in ETH because it's one of the oldest cryptos created and already has a very strong ecosystem. I believe that transaction fees will go down one future as devs work on it, hence leading to even wider adoption of ETH.

neen209

I’m ICP / BTC / ETH — once and a while I stack some more XRP

TheOneWondering

How is it objectively less secure? Encouraging custodial staking increases centralization which is what we are seeing in ETH right now.

Fresh-Chemical-9084

About Charles: He joined the Ethereum team as one of five original founders with Vitalik Buterin in late 2013 and held the position of chief executive. Buterin and the Ethereum team removed Hoskinson in 2014 after a dispute over whether the project should be commercial (Hoskinson's view) or a nonprofit (Buterin's view). Hoskinson did not pursue venture capital for Cardano, saying that it ran counter to the blockchain's principles. Hoskinson has also said that venture capital involvement might lead to an outsized control of a project. So he was for profit with ETH and then not for cardano it seems.

DishInteresting1552

Except, you can't stake by yourself unless if you have at least 32 ETH. Even a core developer from Ethereum said that stakers are "by definition, wealthy". So unless if you have 32 ETH, you gotta trust someone else with your stake and pray they don't get slashed. Which, 20 validaters have already been slashed.

eat-sleep-rave

And yet somehow I'm much more calm holding ETH in my my wallet than ADA...

Frunknboinz

Are you seriously trying to convince me that staking ETH is somehow equivalent to mining in terms of risk and cost to operate? >If you didn't mine ETH on pow then ur not gonna mine ETH with POS. Based on what logic do you end up at this conclusion?

Benry26

BTC/ETH no brainer lol

Mellifluous41

Maybe someone else better informed can respond but with my limited knowledge what I know is that eth are locked on Ethereum with no option nor timeline on when you can unstake your eth? Also I believe that when you stake on eth you no longer own your eth as they are sent to a pool linked to a private key owned by the owner of the pool. Cardano on the other hand doesn't have any lock up period, you can withdraw whenever you want and your ADAs don't leave your wallet and therefore retain ownership of your coins. Is it a fair representation? I own ADA and ETH, I stake my ADA but I don't stake my ETH because I deemed the risk too high (locked coins, no date on when I will be able to withdraw, not my private keys etc)

Ergopow

Looks like Luna is actually better staking than ETH lmao

Ninja_Vagabond

I just want an easy way to get ETH to my wallet. 😅

chrisbrown21357

Coinbase isn’t 10 days wait. Usually 3-5 days from ACH. Instead, you can buy USDC with zero fees, then instantly transfer out from coinbase, and purchase ETH with USDC elsewhere.

Embarrassed-Room-166

It’s miles ahead of ETH in staking. So much easier and safer to stake on cardano

Smiling_Jack_

Indeed. I've got some bigger bags locked away on ETH @ Curve, but the majority of my DeFi activity is in the Cosmoverse. The first thing I do every morning after getting some coffee is check Dexmos lol.

MaeronTargaryen

Yeah that’s weird, moving my ETH from CDC to MM is pretty much instant

striped_sweater12

Has anybody looked into the background of Charles Hoskinson? The guy's a sociopathic pervert groper who weaseled his way into the ETH project without actually doing any work on it. I can't believe anyone trusts him or values his ADA project. Let alone the fact that congress has invited him to hearings. He's admitted several times he's only in this sphere for the money and good for him cause it's made him billions.

TomatilloFabulous602

DCA day today. My regular dose of ETH, BTC, ATOM and MATIC. Keep accumulatin

TopAlert2383

ETH lockups are to secure liquidity for price stability. All PoS networks use staking for security the network. Hence the term Proof of Stake. Attackers on any PoS node for any chain punishes the operators by taking away rewards or what you would call slashing. If ETH made the chain anything like Cardanos ypu would see an even bigger fall in the price. People have been locked up for a long time amd now they still can't unlock their ETH. Most nodes are offering tokens such as cbETH just to keep you money even longer. If you ever get into ADA you will understand and cherish the feeling of being able to get your money whenever you want.

Inaeipathy

To be honest I don't think it's relevant to him. The coins don't really have anything in common, though at least there will be a bridge between the two now that XMR-ETH atomic swaps have been funded.

Wave-Civil

There is plenty going on with other POS than ETH. Better than two wallet staking and few sub forked chains with no developers wasting value. That been said everyone can pick their allocations %. I like ALGO and Tezos.

Obsidianram

Cardano doesn't require a considerable locked in commitment for staking, whereas Ethereum does - that's the main point. Secondly, ADA can be moved and combined/traded/spent, etc. after a snapshot...not so much with ETH. But before any of you bitch about ADA anymore, maybe resolve Ethereum's past and ongoing problem with breach of contract. When someone puts together a transaction, with requisite fee, and it fails to process (in the past mostly due to miners snubbing small xactions, for example), there's a breach of contract. A user pays the fee to receive a service (smart *contract*) and they don't receive what they paid for. Yet, they don't even get their fee refunded (theft of funds). So address this shit...

TopAlert2383

The price will not move in an unstable market. If ETH dumped expect the same with ADA.

-Mirrored-

Agreed. That’s why I’m stacking all the coins I can. BTC, ETH, ATOM, MATIC, ALGO - catchin’ them all like Pokémon

TopAlert2383

Staking on Cardano pays the same as ETH and there's no lockup period. I can literally spend my staked coins and get my yield with whatever is left. I can send more ADA to my wallet and not worry about staking it since the wallet is staked with the coins. I haven't found anything else like it. The only other chain that does this is HBAR and they took the idea from Cardano.

Re_LE_Vant_UN

Hell yeah that's a great entry for ETH

Miners are generally selling their rewards to pay for the energy they use, and hope for marginal profit on the difference... and at times on the potential appreciation of this margin to keep their operation up. This dichotomy of one being for the rich and the other for the *poor* is really not what you want to go for when you argue for PoS honestly. To reach the level of trustless mining an individual enjoys on Bitcoin, as an Ethereum validator, you need 32 ETH (currently ~$42k) for 1 validator node. If ETH does a 10x in valuation (not unlikely) we'll be close to half a million dollars to have a small impact on the network. The alternative, pooled staking ranges from completely custodial (the most used) to partially trustless solutions... and since those alternative rely on "stakers" not making a run on their funds they force you to lock these funds. Rich people can enjoy locked capital. Meanwhile the cost of mining equipment on Bitcoin isn't dependent on Bitcoin's valuation and the cost of energy is dependent on the market where you are located and the means of production you can access. The only "lock" you have is the investment in the mining infrastructure. And if we compare pooled mining alternatives, the "lock" will generally last until the next mined block. As I said, even if you forget all these argument in favor of Bitcoin, just consider how things work: not spending energy has never been the way change/build anything. The fact that people are now diving head first in a system that relies on just owning something to generate yield, at barely any cost, with barely any upkeep just goes against the basic physical laws of our universe. Even bankers do something with the money you "stake" in their banks, the puty it either in the real economy (where WORK happens) or speculate with it... Your ETH is not doing anything of the sort, it's just held as a security deposit to make sure you behave well. To me Ethereum looks more and more like a perpetual movement machine in this regard, and I don't believe such contraption actually exist or can exist with the laws of physics I know. I'll be happy to be proven wrong though, but for now with the current locked funds for validators PoS has clearly not proven itself to be a sustainable decentralized network in the long term.

Ndivided132

I see the price of ETH is going down but I keep telling myself I’m happy with all my $900 buy purchases

whippersnapperUK

I still firmly feel and remember 2018. Whilst we're in a very different macro backdrop, formulating the right buying strategy will yield life changing returns in this market. ETH gave near 40x from the bottom and that was a relatively safe pick. You don't need to buy some obscure asset to get life changing wealth. Whilst we can't guarantee history repeats it does rhyme, and we are still VERY early in terms of global adoption. In my personal opinion a basket of well funded and adopted L1s will offer life changing gains.

amaqinisohe

I think there are way too many, but I stick with those ones with good utility, and a great ecosystem like ETH, MATIC, and a few other tokens in my PF like ZPAY, MANA, and RIDE.

Old-Record-2210

No it just eats your ETH and says you didn’t use enough gas

nomorebonks

Well he's right about that one - at least until you can use native ETH on ICP and write smart contracts for anything with it.

gvictor808

BTC will definitely recover ATH, but timing could be weeks or months or years. ETH will survive and become some default for something. The bulk of “projects” outside of those two will zombie around forever, probably shrinking into footnotes but never actually dying off.

Roy1984

The hype came maybe later, or better said it didn't start early like for example with ETH 2.0 in which case people were talking for years about it, that hopium lasted long.

pbjclimbing

No way. Charles is saying ADA is better than ETH, never would have guessed.

pbjclimbing

Seems like poor design? Should they award validators that are not online, try to run the same validator key pair twice, or try to approve things incorrectly (this is usually done on purpose)? If you are slashed, you lose your earnings for that time period, not your staked ETH.

Ergopow

Lol then it took a phat dump. I'm glad cardano push the date back I think if it was the other way around cardano would've been a pump and dump then ETH has well. Double gains for shorts.

ZacamaPrimalCalamity

just learned it takes 8 days to bridge Arbitrum Nova ETH to Mainnet ETH... what the fuck dudes...

IWillKillPutin2022

Maybe not for ADA. ETH did pump and dip a lot. BTC has bounced a bit back and forth also

Fresh-Chemical-9084

So… not bullish on ETH and BTC?

s0urdeeeez

…because chasing returns is what gets you rekt. Say You stake $50,000 worth of ETH. Is the six dollars a day for staking that much really worth the risk?

Ryuzakku

ADA price unmoved, yet somehow my ADA bag is worth more than my ETH bag for the first time, and I haven't bought crypto in a hot minute lol.

_Commando_

Since it takes no effort, why don't you dump and lock your 32 ETH and do it. If you didn't mine ETH on pow then ur not gonna mine ETH with POS.

Yeah definitely true, once I put a short not looking at this forum or news etc, not realising it was the initial day of the first test for the ETH merge and it rocketed like 200 dollars in 2 days 🤣 crying from liquidation the next day

DingDongWhoDis

LOL, that's my point, isn't it? It's a crying shame. And the fact that ETH gets all the recognition doesn't mean it should continue to be embraced and constantly promoted as the best option (or a blue chip). It's propped up by stubborn big money and devs that are stuck with it. That can and should change.

hoanglpr

Quite frankly? Any of you who find the slashing on ETH justified will soon realise it is bullshit. Many said it will increase security of the network? Heck no. It will make it even more centralised because no one wants to take risk and soon will just stake their ETH either on CEX or via a few validators. Besides, are you telling me that the way BTC works (incentive) is not secure.

xiwefe2

So much hate on anything that isnt ETH these days,yet ETH fell the hardest in recent time heh..The bear market magic in full swing. I have high hopes on ADA BNB and SOL..bullish also on the EWT and VLX..Energy web could be really big and VLX the fastest EVM chain, fork of SOL hmm..imo a good ROI incoming esp gettin in now when markets have tanked. Funny how BNB outperformed them all regarding the drop from ATH's

_immodest_proposal_

i have readable karma, been involved in crypto for a number of years, own a good bit of algo. really well designed chain imo and spend a good % of my transactions on it (along with ETH, OP)

FuriousGeorge50

Dude im also into Algo but ETH is a household name. There is not a single person who atleast hasnt heard about ethereum. Algo sounds like a dish soap in comparsion

DingDongWhoDis

It's mind blowing any bank or financial institution would adopt ETH. The possibility of forking alone is a deal breaker. But Norway is adopting something "based on" Ethereum technology. I admit, I don't know more than that, but I'm wondering how it directly benefits ETH. Of course, it's a solid endorsement. Meanwhile ALGO is in all of those conversations as well. Not just CBDCs, but look at Italy. Look at Nigeria adopting Algo for intellectual property purposes. Look at El Salvador government wrapping Bitcoin with ALGO. And ALGO does it all better.

putsonshorts

Happy not to be wiring to some bank account to get crypto. I just buy Reddit avatars from the Reddit shop and then sell them on OpenSea. The crazy thing is instead of paying some onboarding fees, I sell the avatar for more than I paid so I just got like a 20% ETH boost. 🙃

TheDoge420

BTC and ETH as your main coins, take profits when you can, don't "hodl" everything = sell half you BTC stack for a profit, "hodl" the other half, then buy the dips with your profits = rinse and repeat. have some money to throw (gamble) on alt/meme coins if you want to catch a 2X, 4X or just lose all your money on the sh!tcoin = just don't make this your main crypto strategy thinking you'll be a crypto millionaire tltr: BTC, ETH = sell some for profit, keep some, rebuy lower, extra cash for meme coins you don't car about losing (or winning) on

xiwefe2

Uff the harsh comments in bellow comments..ppl are mad and angry cuz of current market situation imo. KLAY looks allright i guess..Heck even GRT fell like hell but that does not mean it wont come back up ever again..If we would look at that logic one could say that ETH sucks cuz BNB fell less from its ATH than Ethereum in this bear..Just stick to you're gameplan..I'm going for scalability, usability and speed..VLX SOL..Tho will up my Velas bags more compared to other investments..i just smell the great ROI from these levels. Cheers and goodluck with KLAY, got a small bag of it as well
