PLENTY

chainer3000

I appreciate your help, but trust me, I know. I’ve been doing this for like a decade now. It’s in my wallet - but nothing will send out of it. Probably network congestion. It’s still really bad. I can swap and receive, but cannot send. No error code, just fails and then makes no note of it. Trust me, PLENTY in there for gas

Well when you're job-seeking, you're interacting with PLENTY of unknown individuals, especially if you're in IT. What makes it very difficult is that plenty of legitimate recruiters are also very sketchy-sounding from the start. If I turned down all sketchy-sounding headhunters, I probably wouldn't have a job today. And the scam recruiters have plenty of experience copying from legitimate recruiters. A lot of jobs are remote. When I was searching, I was contacted countless times by LinkedIn scammers who knew everything off my profile. Many are obvious scams, but there are also those who aren't obvious and put in the effort for a deep scam.

Man, there are people living in poverty that cannot eat three times a day, take care of their children, keep a roof over their heads or pay medical care. PLENTY would spend 25 years inside to live a millionaire's lifestyle afterwards.

There was PLENTY of reason for the hate. They manipulated the system in favor of the big boys to screw the little men who gathered their power and were winning until trading was halted on the way to opening the champagne. That’s the cliff notes from someone who knew nothing of a Reddit forum or actually making a trade at the time but heard a lot of the news at the time

There is PLENTY of Bitcoin supply. Just not at 60K. Raise the price to 150K and see how fast Bitcoin hits the exchange...

There are PLENTY of stamped bills in circulation, peiple have zero problems accepting them in the US. I know because Where's George used to be a big thing.

>And the wallet was titled Ripple? That’s a funny one! https://xrpscan.com/account/rJNLz3A1qPKfWCtJLPhmMZAfBkutC2Qojm its named "chris larsen" try doing 1 second of googling next time bozo lol >So ironic how hot you come into this conversation and an hour later the cofounder loses over $110m because he doesn't know how to properly secure a recovery phrase. People get compromised all the time? what does that have to do with you being wrong all the time on this topic? >Also I'll ask again. Why was the wallet titled as "Ripple" Ill happily show you that it isnt for the 3rd time even tho I dont see how its relevant to this discussion? https://xrpscan.com/account/rJNLz3A1qPKfWCtJLPhmMZAfBkutC2Qojm >then why weren't they just vanilla XRP wallets without any identifier. There are PLENTY of wallets without identifiers(over 95% of them dont show a name) it is a choice by the user to label their own wallet and display it at such. for example, Look heres a wallet with No identifier https://xrpscan.com/account/rf7ZNtAxfFNdG65xFsqgsKxaYAuAxGdC9r, In fact the ledger where this specific transaction came from, had over 200 other address's all without an identifier and these blocks close ever 1-3 seconds. feel free to pick any other ledger and look at all the address's making trasactions. >Please do answer me - why was the wallet titled "Ripple"? for the 4th time, it isnt https://xrpscan.com/account/rJNLz3A1qPKfWCtJLPhmMZAfBkutC2Qojm You can even look at its Funding history and see he Previously funded it from this wallet on jan 1st 2013 https://xrpscan.com/account/rB5TihdPbKgMrkFqrqUC3yLdE8hhv4BdeY this wallet Also labeled Chrislarsen holds 1.1+Mill XRP still. Again, this is a PUBLIC blockchain, the answers to all your silly little questions are right infront of you but you're either too stupid or lazy to just google for 1 second. >in short - yes I understand how consensus mechanisms work. Do you? I dunno you're the one who couldnt figure out the basics or be bothered to google so, I guess you dont? >also before I'm accused of being a Polkadot maxi - I don't own any DOT I just think they have an interesting ecosystem for consensus. the only thing I'd claim you are is either lazy or stupid atm. I dont care what you hold. you also dont seem to know how to quote people on reddit properly either, which is funny. > you literally told me I did no research then pasted bs and told me to read about it. Because you've clearly done Zero research. It's very apparent due to ur lack of ability to read or google. I handed you directly the answer to ur questions multiple times and youve asked them repeatedly because you're either A. not reading or B. too dumb to read. > sounds to me like u dont know how it works because u can't - because u yourself don't know how it works - u should maybe use this as a learning opportunity! wowza! You want me to explain how Consensus happens on the XRPL... after handing you the documents yourself As much as I'd love to type out another 3000 word essay to someone who cant read, Ur gonna have to show that ur not trying to have a dishonest conversation before I even attempt to explain it to you. so far, ur failing badly. >If you even try to say I'm lying or fudding you're just admitting that you never read that wells notice in the first place (always DYOR with projects u invest in, especially if they're fake lol). So you read it and were wrong then lol. You just literally outed urself as being a moron and not understanding how the legal system works. SEC makes bold claims but fails to prove anything in court... big yikes for you. >please do read that then come back and try to convince me Ripple isn't a crooked larpchain. What was proven in court? Claims are just claims, but evidence and what is Proven is what matters. Kinda like how I keep asking you to prove it and you cant... lol > their super special consensus mechanism that is oh so groundbreaking). I mean at the time there was Pow and that was it. Solving the 4 generals problem with a new solution is quite groundbreaking seeing "unsolvable" 3-4 years prior. >Until then, I'll spend my time looking at real networks! :) stay mad and wrong :)

DontDieSenpai

Last time, my achin' ass. All I heard was, "They're horning in on my action!" /s But seriously, he's gonna lean on the illicit activity argument? What. A. Tool. His "reasons" for his conclusions are simply pathetic. He doesn't actually understand bitcoin or the legitimate concerns that exist within the space. There is PLENTY that one could point to in order to form a coherent argument critical of bitcoin, but what does Jamie do? He goes after low-hanging fruit that's already been debunked into oblivion. Yes, we know some illicit activities take place, but one could hardly reasonably argue its end use-case is therefore illicit activity. He's taking one of the smallest pieces of the pie and acting like it's the whole thing. HA! Far from being an argument against bitcoin, this is good PR in favor of it. When we have banking executives who spout this kind of nonsense, we know they're full of shit. And what's more, we know they themselves engage in the very same behavior and on a grander scale. Then, they proceed to effectively gaslight bitcoin and its community. So, what are we to make of all this then? They're running scared. Jamie is deeply in denial because he knows he is wrong deep down. But admitting he was wrong would be an admission that the world is moving closer to a place in which he and his ilk are becoming less and less relevant. If/when the world does adopt bitcoin, much of the financial sector would be on the chopping block. With bitcoin, we, the people, can hold both governments and corporations accountable for their financial decisions. This is power unlike anything we the people have ever known! Think about it for a moment, and you begin to see the true power of bitcoin. Good luck justifying the imperial-sized "defense budget" with bitcoin. Good luck dodging audits with bitcoin. I'm looking at you, Fed, and you too, Pentagon! Good luck maintaining the status quo like you politicians and CEOs have been for decades. The power is coming back into the hands of the people in which it belongs, and corrupt governments/corporations days are numbered as bitcoin grows stronger and stronger. We are still early, and we've amassed enough support that we've got them laughing nervously as they spout silly nonsense on mainstream media outlets. IMO, we've got them right where we want them, and we're about to really put the screws to them over the next few years.

There were PLENTY of people who were very much against this ETF and thought it was a bad idea. So, acting as if this is somehow a new thought process is a bigger joke.

MrBones2k

Let’s face it: most humans (including me) can’t actually fathom the immensity of a number such as 2.1 quadrillion. So no answer can likely satisfy OP, or others, without a reasonable frame of reference for this number. By way of comparison, but still not of understanding the magnitude of this number, the total number of US dollars in circulation is approximately $2.336 trillion as of November 29, 2023. 2.1 Quadrillion is equal to 2100 Trillions So we’ll have used about 10% of all Bitcoins, if we used even the same amount as we are already using in USD. Seems there is PLENTY to go around for a long, long time.

--Quartz--

If you think billionaires will pay millions of USD for those bitcoins instead of using an alternative that has all of BTCs properties and more, you're the one that's delusional. BTCs energy consumption will become easier and easier to use to knock it down and trim its wings, and some new cryptocurrency will be validated as the uncompromisable store of value. There are PLENTY of coins with fixed supply, decentralized and strong governance. It might still be a while, but the bigger revolution is in smart contracts, not just BTC.

thec4nman

Whilst XRP might end well, I feel whilst everyone's waiting on XRP there are PLENTY other coins to make money on.

I make PLENTY of money to be able to spend. Why would I need a loan haha peasant.

tranceology3

You're making it sound like no one will be able to go on an exchange and buy BTC and put it in their wallet. There will be PLENTY available. And even if the price is $1M a coin you can still buy fractions for $1.

ididntsaygoyet

What is up with people being late to the party. And I'm talking like months too late. Same thing happened on the BlockFi and FTX subreddits. Like, where were you 5 months ago when all the emails and snailmail was sent out, the mail that gave you PLENTY of time for action, then clearly states all the due dates. How are people so irresponsible with their money?!

>Too many "unknown problems?" What does that mean? To me that just sounds like they ran into...normal problems and didn't estimate how long it would actually take, and it took years longer than expected. Ethereum is the first, and only, decentralized pPOS blockchain. Bugs were being found by implementors as the POS specification was being written... Newer blockchains have the benefit of being able to use Ethereum's research in their design, while anyone attempting to implement POS on Ethereum had no research to fall back on - many of POS' issues were discovered through trial and error. There are always known and unknown problems in a project. You can generally estimate how long known problems will take to work through, but nobody can provide a definitive deadline or estimate until novel/unknown problems stop cropping up. The Merge was the most complicated event in crypto's history and its execution was flawless, minus delays. >1,000 TPS? I've only responded to people saying 25,000TPS like it's some almost achievable goal. And as far as I'm aware, that's not 1,000 TPS of smart contracts. I haven't seen eth handle more than a handful of smart contracts at a time. It's just too much data for the bottleneck. Ethereum's roadmap is called, A Rollup Centric Ethereum. It aims to use Rollup's to scale, so that's the TPS I'm pulling from. Rollup's like Arbitrum can do over 1000 TPS today (in stress testing). The throughput after next upgrade will be 100,000 TPS globally, maybe 50-75% when considering smart contracts. Ethereum has had no problem settling 200+ TPS coming from L2's today before any scaling upgrades are in place. There isn't enough demand to saturate an L2's blockspace today regardless, so scaling will only make fees cheaper in the interim. I believe I already described the Surge upgrade in an earlier post ITT. To summerize, gas is required for two reasons, to pay for your data storage and your data computation. After this next upgrade Rollup's (and soon L1 users) will only be required to pay gas for the the cheaper computation portion, and their data won't be stored indefinitely anymore. This prevents Ethereum's state from growing multiple TB per year, this will drastically reduce the gas required per transaction meaning *drastically increases* the amount of transactions which fit in a block. Storage has always been the bottleneck. >There are PLENTY of alternatives. You are correct that no one uses them, but it's not because of anything other than eth's name recognition for the person new to crypto, and because it had the NFT craze on it. Just my two cents, when blockchain becomes mainstream and provides real world value, eth won't be nearly as big a player as they are now. That's not to say price won't go up before then - I expect it to. Solana, Cosmo's, Polkadot, uh Sui, Aptos, Algo? I can't think of any other trying new things, out of 1000s. No one uses these because they're all in stage-0 of their research. They often mismanage their funding before solving any of their problems, then fall back on Ethereum's research in the end, building L2's or EVM sidechains etc. to be functional - or simply rebrand to start their PnD over again. Why would I use a VET L2? Why would I use a centralized Cardano EVM when I can use a decentralized EVM? How many coins have implemented fee burns by now? What are these other chain's use cases if they all diverge on being like ETH in the end? Solana is the only one that looks like it will define its own use case, and this sub hates it. Or else they're riddled with VC money and bad actors who bought in for pennies, so fundamentally the assets behave like (unregistered, illegal) securities. Many of those are very much centralized top to bottom. The tokenomics on all are very weak next to Ethereum, and that has nothing to do with any of their names. The only reason I'd use any of those chains is if they had a novel use case, they don't, so the only reason I'd invest in them is if they were good investments, they aren't. So, forgive me for not being interested. Am I correct in guessing you've only been involved with crypto a couple years? Hard to imagine anyone would point at ETH and say it's successful *because of NFTs*, unless you just caught the very tail wind of last bull-mania. The DeFi economy is much more robust and important, so are RWA ie stablecoins. https://defillama.com/chains Tron is up to something shady as always. But 6 of the top 10 blockchains sorted by TVL are all Ethereum, and 1 (BSC) is a fork of Ethereum. I promise you these billions aren't held up in NFTs lol. >I'm sorry if me calling your investment a dinosaur hurt your feelings - wasn't intentional, just my two cents. No feelings in my investments. I would sell all my ETH today if you had a compelling argument against it. I only thought it was funny that 8 years makes you a dinosaur now, that sure makes me feel like one. ETH's doing the most advanced upgrades in the space right now, and has by far the most novel tech on its roadmap. ZK went from a crazed research idea to a reality on Ethereum, and ZK may have far wider implications/usage than any cryptocurrency ever has. Crypto is a child. Bitcoin isn't even a dinosaur yet, ZKBTC is just around the corner now utilizing the same spec Ethereum pioneered. It will only be months now until the famous Charles starts talking about his brilliant idea of, *compute-only blob transactions*, pulling straight out of Ethereum's research bin. A tale as old as dinosaurs themselves. When I see something new that works and makes sense, or that I want to use, then I will diversify into crypto more. I've been looking out for that nearly 10 years now and nothing has emerged outside of Ethereum yet, so I'm not holding my breath. Just my 2 cents also.

My point isn’t that you can predict precisely when something will fail. But if you had stepped outside of your crypto circle jerk around the time of Celsius, Terra, etc. there were PLENTY of people saying that these things would very likely collapse. But crypto people love to act like every collapse is some black swan, impossible to have anticipated, when they were in fact very predictable.

TOR was created by the Navy if I recall correctly, and if used for more criminal purposes than crypto I'd wager - and PLENTY of totally legal ones as well. Sometimes if the tech is good enough, the inventor doesn't really matter, especially once a community gets a hold of it.

**STOP FUCKING TAKING PIXELS WE ALREADY HAVE AND CHANGING THEM TO THE SAME COLOR!!!** For fuck sakes people. There are PLENTY of spots to take. We’re trying to claim our damn spot and you are NOT HELPING by pulling this shit! You aren’t even gonna get moons if we don’t claim the damn spot FFS.

This is why we can't have nice things. Kidding there PLENTY of open source harder wallets out there!!

You don’t need to follow narratives to make money on alts. If you want 20x or better, then yes, you probably need to catch a narrative or identify the new hotness relatively early heading into a bull cycle. But there are PLENTY of high probability 5-10x alts sitting there right now. LINK for example. It’s around $6 and in a macro bottoming pattern. You can’t tell me LINK isn’t going to at least $30 next bull cycle. And that’s just one of many examples.

I don’t think talking about Bitcoin would alienate his audience. He’s had PLENTY of guests that talk about polarizing stuff… way more polarizing than Bitcoin. It’s done nothing but grow his audience too.

pojut

It's also worth noting that a drop in price does not mean a project has failed, either. There are PLENTY of legit, real-world projects making serious moves who's prices are in the gutter. AMP is the perfect example of this.

LightninHooker

You shouldn't be bullish on any alt from this last cycle. That's the harsh truth. You can buy now and sell at some point and make profit but do not think that they will reach ATH just because. Plenty of new shit is gonna come next cycle, PLENTY, and their graphs will look much better than the obliterated alt we all know today So don't became an IOTA , NANO holder. My best is on BRC20 cos that shit have been totally unexpected and plenty of BTC liquidity is gonna get pumped into those. But that's it other than ETH and BTC

Jfc sometimes I’m ashamed to be associated with you guys. China regularly fucks over foreign investors. Like… constantly. Luckin coffee? The US has PLENTY of flaws but if you honestly think it is safer to park billions of dollars (notice how we all use dollars) in Chinese currency that is even more blatantly manipulated then you’re a fool. This is a crypto sub, but when talking about fiat USD is king for a reason. Trust. If nothing else, trust in the fact that they will invade a fucking continent before allowing their economy to fail and have the resources to do it.

joekerr37

while this meme made me chuckle for sure, it's not really the investors' fault. Any volatile asset is very hard to judge when you should be buying and when you should be selling. And there are PLENTY of people who will be buying at 70k and plenty of people will lose their shirts if it drops back to 30k.

Not knockin your experience at all, but just because our grid is well managed with little wasted or stranded power anywhere...does not mean there's not PLENTY of ways and places to do it around the globe. Last year I was reading about a company that was capturing the heat energy from the nat gas being flared off of oil rigs with little miniature power plants, which then powered a wireless bitcoin mining rig. Turned on when there was gas being flared...turned off when there wasn't. So so many ways.

MikeMiller8888

No, OP can’t. These notes have been demonetized; not even the Central Bank of England would exchange them. However, they do retain some numismatic value. UK citizens were given PLENTY of time for the turnover. This situation occurs nowadays usually because a foreign traveler tries to use their paper pounds somewhere and finds that they aren’t good; they needed to be traded out for polymer before the deadline.

TheNeoOne001

I remember NETA gave me 6 thousand dollars. It was a JUNO airdrop. There then was OSMOSIS, Atom airdrop, I held and it made me 10 thousand dollars, there then was EVMOS, another 6 thousand dollars. PLENTY more ,you should explore Cosmos. Also there is this february ICS comming ,just by staking Atom you will be earning other coins by providing security for them, since there are a lot of atoms staked.

Mrs-Lemon

Not everyone needs to go exchange-less. The point of crypto is not for everyone to go exchangeless. Anyone saying that just doesn't get it. The point is you have the ability to go exchangeless if you want. And people go "exchangeless" all the time in real life without crypto. It's more going "bankless." Some examples are: Holding physical cash, holding physical gold/silver/diamonds, holding other physical illiquid assets, holding physical stock papers. There are PLENTY of banking examples over the years that when they came out were considered complicated and hard to do that now most people do. Online banking for instance, or using a credit card, etc.

We need to get them seatbelts really tight anyways…is Binance, Gemini, FTX, LUNA, whoever…there will be PLENTY more…get ready guys, we in for some rough times, all the big boys will need to cut loss/take profit at this point because its not their decision, its their boards…they gonna let it rain on us through asian lunar new year and Q4 financial reports…..”seatbelt done…now where is my helmet?”

E_Cash

Nah. It really isn't about who gets taxed what. The single biggest issue is government spending... they have PLENTY of tax revenue as things are ($4.8 TRILLION)... yet they spend $1.2 trillion beyond that. The government over spending creates money printing creates inflation.

All these celebrities (and I will include Snowden) are so self entitled that they think they can run massive companies and do whatever they’d like without consequences. I would never let Snowden run my company. While arguably altruistic, he sold out the US Government and leaked some very dangerous information. The US government is obviously hostile to whistleblowers but nonetheless it shouldn’t have been done. How can he ever be trusted to handle sensitive information again, let alone information he disagrees with? He is also a Russian citizen now and who knows who he’s chosen to affiliate with in the time he’s been there. He could potentially become a conduit to funnel money into Russia or launder it. I’m so sick of celebrities and billionaires. They have shown us they know very little and/or do very little. Elon CLEARLY has PLENTY of free time. Judging by the pictures where he has his shirt off, he clearly also spends a lot of time drinking judging by the “beer belly.” I would recognize it anywhere because I have one too. :( The difference between us and them is that they have money so they are entitled to do whatever they’d like without consequences. The US Government representatives are ancient so they have very little concept in how to handle current issues other than their political infighting and worthless culture wars which only stands to divide us even more so they can retain their status, for whatever reason. Maybe it’s simply because they too are rich. Can’t wait until the Capitalist house of cards collapses.

You'd have to be pretty naive to think Tether has been keeping their supply backed by anything tangible. Remember that cool typed up later confirming they had eleventy gajillion dollars - from some lawyer in the Bahamas? There has been PLENTY of doubt about FTX, LUNA, Quadriga on here. It just gets shut down by delusional teenagers (and grown men who act like teenagers) with too much skin in the game. Cognitive dissonance.

Bitcoin is divisible to 8 decimal points. The smallest "unit" is 1 satoshi. 1 satoshi = 0.0000 0001 BTC 1 satoshi = $0.000164 More easily understood... $1 = 6100 satoshi. Ultimately, there are PLENTY of units. We, Bitcoin users, can decide to divide Bitcoin even further with future updates.

> And somehow I suspect you aren’t currently rushing to ‘correct’ me that Obama and Biden are too, and that the problem is the US political system. In fact, you’d probably see such a correction as an attempt to play down how abhorrent the things Trump did actually are. To be quite honest, I actually would correct you on this. As it’s a very obvious one that PLENTY of people have pointed out about biden and Obama. Trying to use trump and drone strikes to paint republicans are bad would be the worst take you could do. > Economics is part of politics because the chancellor is an elected part of the UK’s government and because economic policy is a major issue both in elections and in politics in general? And the bailouts were an economic policy issue? So the same reason I think the tax rate is a political issue. Weird question, Let me rephrase using different terms with the same meaning for you as you tend to take a lot of things out of context and try to frame it your own way OR you are misunderstanding what is or isn’t apart of a traditional government. Monetary policy and politics have a divide. So much so that a organization in many world governments are created such as th le Bank of England in the UK and the FED in the US. These organizations are supposed to be accountable to THE PUBLIC and CONGRESS/PARLIAMENT. I have emphasized the two as you are completely missing the aspect of THE PUBLIC. Bailouts were indeed backed by both parties with each party having people that disagreed with them. They both came together to push the FED through legislation to bail the banks out. I explain all of this because the whole reason Crypto was created, provided in your example with the block message, was to address the the issue that they were NOT representing the people and and directly using them to bail out there friends in banking. If you vote on someone to be a fiscal conservative and lower taxes or a democrat that likes to spend money on a bunch of services then sure that is “economics in politics”. It seeing how the context of this entire discussion has nothing to do with either one of them, it would be enough to assume that we are (and crypto ethos) are talking about how federal oversight was used to bail out there friends and not to actually help the people. Which on the topic of bailouts, has nothing to do with Republican or Democrat as it was done with bipartisan support. So finally, we have arrived to the actual context of your attempt to compare cryptos core ethos to republicans calling out democrats on accepting money from SBF. Now that we have all the context we can compare it to a theoretical(IE didn’t happen) example of the chancellor(or republicans or democrats) having full control over monetary policy. Which is a farce and just not true. Seeing how they need to do this as CONGRESS or PARLIAMENT it would need support from BOTH SIDES to implement said change. IE it is impossible for your scenario of chancellor having full control over the BOE giving bailouts as the chancellor would need to have BIPARTISAN support. I can not keep wasting my time explaining very simple concepts to you. If you can’t see where you continuously (whether malicious or ignorant IDK) omit very important context to push your own agenda then we are going to have to agree to disagree on this as you are just stuck in your ways. > Which political party do you think is more likely to have influence over whether SBF is prosecuted? I’ll give you a hint, it’s the one that controls the executive branch. I would go out and say and say it’s the Judicial branch that would be in charge of that. TBH seeing how SBF knows what you don’t, which is to grease both parties hands due to corruption in BOTH parties, I would suspect no matter who is leading the executive branch he would have the upper hand with either party… since he donated to both… crazy how that works? To be quite Frank, I don’t give a fuck if you are Republican or Democrat. If you can’t form your own opinions and make decisions without trump or biden telling you how you should put your pants on in the morning then I don’t think you should be in crypto. You know the thing that tries to not have a central entity tell it what it can and can not do. You are so caught up that your “team” was offended by me presenting facts that you keep trying to tell me how one is worse than the other and can’t seem to read the room and see I could not care about either party and quite literally think they are both dog shit. If I had the choice of voting on policies and not policies makers I would probably lean 60/40 dem/Republican. But seeing how that is not possible, I don’t make it my fucking identity to get 100% a party that I only agree with 60% or 40% of the time. Fucking weirdo.

"How will we escape this torturous market lol" Bitcoin has survived PLENTY of these drawdowns over the last 14 years. Until something is proven differently - bitcoin will start revving up its engine going into the 2024 halving. Then? See you on the other side 🌙

and PLENTY of Condoms !

If the crypto winter is long enough you either become a btc maxi or die a shitcoiner. Don't be one of those buying the dip in IOTA or EOS "for the next bullrun" . There will be PLENTY of new stuff coming next cycle BTC it is ... later on BTC/ETH

nomorebonks

There's barely any mention of it on this sub - there's PLENTY of activity suppressing it though.

cryptoripto123

I dunno, I still see 16 year old posters talking about USD Shitcoin and the Fed like they understand macroeconomics here, and PLENTY of posts where people lack basic financial education. You're right though the overall chaos has died down, but the people who actually act like mature adults is still pretty limited here.

LightninHooker

They also overlook that 99% of the coins will still leave out there PLENTY of alt and shitcoins alive. It's just cheap ass phrases to make you feel like you know what you are talking about, nothing more

TheStray7

This is a bad argument. There are PLENTY of fraudulent practices and confidence scams in the cryptosphere, and blaming the victims does not refute that.

LightninHooker

\- don't marry your crypto \- dca on btc and eth Don't go shitcoiner let alone full shitcoiner. There will be PLENTY of opportunities during bull for crazy shitcoin / nft gains (and rugpulls). Don't push it now,bear is bad for that

Sufficient_Tooth_949

Crypto is here to stay, so how exactly will the price not be much higher in 20 years? With millions of people coming into investing age every year and rapid development...PLENTY of gains left if your not short sighted and actually believe in it

Tell that to LUNA or safemoon holders. There will be plenty,PLENTY of chances to redeem yourself with other coins in the future.

LightninHooker

There is still PLENTY of rektbois still being bullish in all kind of shitcoins. Included LUNA and UST BTC longs are ATH ... capitulation is not yet here but yes, we are close. Next bull run I am buy a car with my moons

St3fanz

And the game plan from a broader perspective is east to see - shake out, using panic, investors staked between $10k-$20k, buy up low, carry on as normal. There are PLENTY of people who will cut a $20k investment if they see a loss of >30% in under a month.

NoPrize2815

LUNA still up 277% over a year. PLENTY of room down

DesignerAccount

Stop the misinformation. Small blocks guarantee high on-chain fees. VERY high fees. In 2018 we had a few block where the fees were in excess of the 12.5 BTC mining reward. Today we're mining with 6.25 BTC reward. That's PLENTY to compensate miners from fees only.

yourmo4321

I bought on for $200 at one point and sold for $50. Anyone who went all in on that project was destined to lose their money at some point. For me it was a gamble. There was nothing about the project that screamed long term use case. I don't feel bad because there has been PLENTY of time to get out with some money. I checked out the sub yesterday just for shits and giggles. The overall sentiment seems to be "Were going to the moon or into the dirt" that attitude is going to make them lose money in general.

ConsistentWishbonez

There is a 2.49% conversion fee. Technically you would only be getting 1.51% with the 4%. There are PLENTY of cards that give 2%.

If one wants to fight for the enviroment, there are PLENTY of elephants in the room. That should be addressed WAAAAY before Botcoin..

bro, there is STILL PLENTY Of time... i don't think it will... but i wouldn't rule it out.

There are still PLENTY of risk in the upcoming 2 years, including significant potential corrections on the stock market as the returns will likely not meet expectations (P/E multiples go down). Crypto is the stock market on steroid.

LightninHooker

Plenty of people game the airdroo. PLENTY. FUD is gonna take over JUNO after a massive run in the middle of a bear market. I don't really care about this prop to be honest. Price is gonna go down one way or another and I will be able to load up a lot of it. This will be forgotten in the future Karura already faced something like this but nobody cares about Karura of course.

FatDicksSinkShips

Totally looking at this the wrong way. The dude has bulk DOT which he has insane capital gains on. If he converts to BTC or anything else, it becomes a taxable event. So his $5 million donation, would actually give him a tax bill of like $1 million or more. He also can’t easily instantly convert $5 million in DOT to another crypto without absorbing a tonne of liquidity and fluctuating the market price. By donating in DOT, it’s potentially a tax deduction for him. There is PLENTY of good reasons for him as an individual to donate as DOT and not convert it.

LightninHooker

Not gonna lie... I need to use my crypto. Every big dip I end up rebalancing my portfolio. I think a good chunk of my ETH is gonna be swapped for ATOM COSMOS ecosystem is just too fucking good. Easy too use,low fees and PLENTY of projects.

LowSickleArc

I personally am not worried about the health. I would think 1% fees on existing customers trading is likely to be PLENTY of income, even if there is less cash coming in. They make money if I buy or sell, and its not like I can easily withdraw my money. I continue to be horrified by the spreads though. I'm mad at myself for not having pulled the trigger yet on switching to another platform

Lol VC ppl are actually pretty dumb, but retail always surprises me on how much dumber they are. 99% of all projects are elaborate scams to get you to believe in them. The VCs are just another beneficiary, if they can sell properly. If you don’t like VCs, there’s PLENTY of fair launch/stealth launch projects. But that takes work, best to just trust the marketing firms at dipshit fund with your lifesavings. If you listen news, articles, yt vids for what bags to buy, then you’re begging to get dumped on. NOTHING is free

CRCLLC

Tether wouldn't be fucked, though. You are falling for our own stupidity here in America. I can promise you this - plenty of non Americans and Americans have PLENTY of USD they are willing to hold/burn. Don't fall for our goverments lies. These people are also smart enough to know that this is a forced hold failure waiting to happen. Like someone already said - this is obviously a desperate attempt to stay relevant in a game where 0s and 1s are willing and able to rip the hearts from men.

Crypto is already fulfilling its purpose across many mediums. That is on you to research. ​ Not to mention it is a viable alternative currency compared to many developing third/second world nations. ​ And the rich will always get richer. Crypto is a quicker way to the top than stocks because it's a young market and economy. It'd be like getting into real estate in the 1930s... I'm sure PLENTY of people said "Well hell Bill, all that land ain't gonna be worth a damn anyway, why'd ya buy it?"

I didn’t mention ted Cruz. Just pointed out that my state and local government suck at their jobs. Which actually is very much like Ted Cruz does with his job. But again I didn’t mention him just pointed out that my state had PLENTY of time to prepare for a freeze like this and were warned. Over a decade ago. Gotta love our useless officials.

LightninHooker

What's a "shit project" anyway? cos for me there are plenty of shit projects on top 100. Like PLENTY of them. Hopefully VET bagholders (to name some) learnt their lesson but if this is your first dip you may don't know if your project is shit or not. So just buy BTC and ETH to be safe. At least a 80% of your bag unless you are really sure your alt is safe

How else would he have got the ape? Pull from his stash from 2016? He likely got the ETH to get the ape. Simple. He doesn’t need to do bullshit “stunts” like this. He has PLENTY of money.

Well I do not live in US so I got that coming for me. Regulations will come that I am sure but I won't fool myself with "it will be good" . Unless some lobby comes with PLENTY of money. PLENTY... they will regulate for the same people as always And you are not that people unfortunately

Dude this is not a crypto bear market lol Bitcoin dropped 5% in 1 day this past week and people started panicking. Let me know when Bitcoin drops over 20% in a day and loses 80% of it's value within a week or so. Your coin might not be going up but PLENTY of others are. Been heavily invested in Matic. Sold about 5% below it's ATH, kept some cash for myself, bought back when it dipped last week and I'm up over £8k currently.

superseriousraider

Mine kept filling market orders with a much wider spread than it should have. Ie: did a limit sell with taker for matic at 2.65€ for about 3k coins. There was about 18k between where the current price( like 2.68) and 2.65. 2500 of the coins sold at 2.31. That is a very big difference, same thing with dot, went to sell at 22.7 and they executed at 22.15 even though there was PLENTY of market makers above that.

MycroFeline

Yeah. The dumbest of the flock includes PLENTY of adults.

CincyDad1993

But because of your view on it, you’d like for him to be de-platformed and silenced, thus taking away his free speech. Do you want someone who has been doing something like he has been doing for like 13 years to suddenly stop entirely because of some wackos? Also, there’s PLENTY of bad influencers on the other side too, and many are in the White House and running tech companies. All I’m saying is, fuck all that political bs, this is about crypto, so if another person can help crypto become more mainstream, then fuck it I’m in. It’s much bigger than my political views.
