245 TONS of CO2 for a single transaction. We are going in hell together. Happy mining!

Why aren't you dumping it? TONS of sol shills here.

Um, no. There isn't at all. There is INFINITE gold left in this universe. Even in our solar system there is more gold that a human being could ever fathom. In our Ocean water there is 10x the supply than we have mined already, just mixed in with all that H20 & salt. The mine-able ground (earth's crust) does have a limited supply but we don't know it at all. You've only seen estimates of that. Actually, you've likely only seen estimates of what is left unmined in Existing MINES. Not the undiscovered ground, but in mines that have been officially designated mines. How much of a %age of the crust is that? We can't begin to calculate all the millions of TONS of gold left we can mine out of the earth, much less the ocean or the solar system. We know exactly, however, how many bitcoin are left unmined. Less than 2 million. And that's all there will ever be.

No, you can transfer this or leave it to your kids, imagine taking this wealth away just because you didn't move them There is TONS OF TONS OF TONS of sats we don't need more sats

TONS of posts everyday of people losing they’re tokens and don’t know how that happened and they still say “not your keys, not not your crypto”. Today I saw a guy at ledger sub that lost 10 BTC

I'm not saying they are wrong, I am just saying it's very stupid politics. What voters do the democrats gain that they didn't already have? But when they start messing with crypto, there are TONS of liberal voters that normally wouldn't care about policy until it starts directly affecting their net worth.

IN THE RED CORNER! THE US DOLLAR! - 232 years old - considered the strongest currency globally for the last 100 years - has been on death’s door since it’s inception and yet somehow hasn’t collapsed - is the standard currency for global business - is backed by the world’s strongest economy and has the entire global market resting on it’s continued success - has governmental controls allowing for guided inflation and deflation IN THE BLUE CORNER! BIIITTTCCCOOOIINNN - 15 years old - has extremely marginal adoption globally for any use as an actual currency - has experienced volatile growth since inception, with exponential growth and decline being entirely normal - is not used for any business to business transactions - is backed by investor speculation - had no controls to guide inflation or deflation, effectively making it worthless as a national currency Again. Bitcoin. TONS of potential. Absolutely zero proven….anything. I feel like this sub is full of children who think 15 years is a long time. Also, I swear this entire sub has never read a single history lesson on what happens to countries during periods of extended deflation. Everyone only talks about inflation. Y’all need to go do some reading on what happens when deflationary spirals take hold of an economy. There’s a *reason* why governments have control of their currency. Mismanaged, they can fuck it entirely. Without management, *it fucks them*.

Its not easy to pass a market cycle top in Bitcoin. it took over a month to get over $20k This is just how market work. TONS of people buy the top and can't wait to get out after they made such a terrible decision.

notacat690

I see where you're coming from, but you're counting on a dip soon which isn't wise. There's too many bullish factors right now for bitcoin, (ETFs taking TONS of Bitcoin off the market, the halving supply shock, potential FED rate cuts this year). ​ Plus you'd have to deal with taxes from selling just to hopefully buy a little more at a cheaper price. You might be better off just holding on till Mid-Late 2025 (The market usually peaks 1.5years after the halving), then wait for it to dip throughout that year

Impressive-Horse

$5B is ridiculously miniscule in the grand scheme of finance. TONS of room to skyrocket from here - especially since a lot of this was formerly in GBTC.

There's TONS of delusional children on here, I made a post how I bought btc at 17k and sold at 45k (60k total profit). Everyone got upset at me for.....taking some profit?

DiscoverCrypto_org

Great question. L3 is for TONS of transactions, like picking up a sword in a game, then killing a bear and getting XP, then doing it again, then selling the sword. L3s are likely going to be app-specific for things like gaming and other high-transaction things. This is my opinion, at least. Right now, L2s are good enough I'd say.

>My computer (MacBook Pro M1) does not have any malware installed on it...My iPhone was not compromised. This may or may not be true, but truthfully NOBODY can ever say that with any certainty. The best you can ever do is say that it doesn't have any *known* popular malware on it. On the dark web, the average price of an unknown unpatched Apple zero-day exploit is around €2.5 million (give or take based on things like type, severity, and complexity of the 0day vulnerability), which is 0.5 million cheaper than the average zeroday exploit for Android or Windows (cheaper mostly because Apple has a smaller global market share and most hacker groups want larger pools), . That's fewer than 60 BTC right now. So, imagine that some hacking or fraud group wants to rob people. They can buy an untapped exploit for fewer than 60 BTC, then as long as they can steal more than $2.5M worth of financial info (credit cards, identity info, crypto wallet info, etc) from people's computers, phones, or passwords to cloud accounts, or install enough other remote access or hidden keyloggers viewing the camera or screen to see what you type in, etc, and maybe bots, etc...they can make that back. 2.5Mill to buy an unknown zeroday exploit is not much money for large hacking groups that are confident they'll easily earn back more than that. One of the users here tracked the fraudster's Bitcoint Address to having accumulated 219 BTC already, so if they spent 60 or less to get an Apple zero-day exploit, they've already 3.6x'd their investment sitting on a $9Million dollar stash now, not counting any other BTC addresses they might have besides that one. My point is that it MAY be true that the vulnerability didn't come from your Computer or your iPhone, but the truth is that you don't know that for sure. There are TONS of zero day exploits out there for Apple (and Android and Windows) for bad actors to buy up no matter what people want you to believe. This is the main reason why people say to always keep it totally offline. There is no guarantee of safety with anything connected to the internet. Period. Not even with Apple. Not even with malware and virus detectors or firewalls. If you can't afford to lose it, go totally dark offline and leave it that way. If you want to keep checking how much it's worth now, just write down the amount you have and times that by the current price. When it comes to your Bitcoin stash, if you're going to self-custody it, you need to be paranoid and assume your stuff is potentially relatively compromised or could be. Don't save anything in the cloud, no pictures, setup failsafes (maybe various MFA and multi-sig).

mementori

You do realize the market is much bigger than that, right? TONS of people that just need to sell, don’t believe it in, are selling for profit, selling for their local currency bc it was used to purchase goods/services from them, etc etc There will be buyers and sellers at every price. Hence how we got here.

>daily trading volume for GLD is about 9M (avg) That's just a single gold ETF, there are many more ETFs globally. Also there is COMEX, a commodities exchange that is estimated to be 200x - 300x leveraged, taking delivery from them is expensive and difficult to do for a reason. Finally, remember that Central Banks hold *thousands of TONS* of gold, they short whenever they print more money to lessen hedging against their new fiat. Add it all up and you've got a rigged market. BTC ETFs can do the same and more.

>satoshi’s dead wallet holds a million right there. Absolutely not accurate. There is no wallet with 1Million Bitcoin. The largest wallet in the world is: 34xp4vRoCGJym3xR7yCVPFHoCNxv4Twseo and it is a Binance Coldwallet. It only holds 248,597 BTC. I mean, that's still worth more than $10 Billion, but it's nowhere close to 1 million Bitcoin. We only know of 2 Bitcoin addresses owned by Satoshi. The first one is the Genesis address which is untouchable, and the second one is the one he used to send the first user to user Bitcoin transaction to Hal Finney: 1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa = 99.69 BTC 12cbQLTFMXRnSzktFkuoG3eHoMeFtpTu3S = 18.43 BTC The following 8 addresses are wallets that people THINK "Might" be owned by Satoshi but nobody knows for sure, along with how much BTC is in them.: 12c6DSiU4Rq3P4ZxziKxzrL5LmMBrzjrJX 51.35 BTC 1HLoD9E4SDFFPDiYfNYnkBLQ85Y51J3Zb1 50.07 BTC 1FvzCLoTPGANNjWoUo6jUGuAG3wg1w4YjR 50 BTC 15ubicBBWFnvoZLT7GiU2qxjRaKJPdkDMG 50.06 BTC 1JfbZRwdDHKZmuiZgYArJZhcuuzuw2HuMu 50 BTC 1GkQmKAmHtNfnD3LHhTkewJxKHVSta4m2a 50 BTC 16LoW7y83wtawMg5XmT4M3Q7EdjjUmenjM 50.02 BTC 1J6PYEzr4CUoGbnXrELyHszoTSz3wCsCaj 50 BTC The whole "Satoshi has a million Bitcoin" was a made up statement that was long ago proven to be false and made up, and the person who said it admitted it wasn't true and they were wrong. Still, the overall point is a good one. There are TONS of wallets with way more than 1BTC. You can look at the address distribution here: [https://bitinfocharts.com/top-100-richest-bitcoin-addresses.html](https://bitinfocharts.com/top-100-richest-bitcoin-addresses.html) 1,909 wallets have over 1,000 BTC. at least 864,926 wallets have 1BTC or more already. That is 22.5% of the wallets control 81.8% of all BTC that currently exists (18,188,042 BTC). So fewer than 1million addresses control 18Million BTC. That leaves only 2,811,958 BTC for the rest of the 8.1 Billion people to split up. So, fewer than 3 million more people realistically have a possibility of being whole coiners. More likely there will be fewer than 2 million total addresses with 1 BTC or more. Though admittedly some of those addresses account for exchanges that represent multiple people, so it is possible that many of those addresses are thousands of different whole coiners. Still, it's interesting...but Satoshi isn't really much of a factor. That's all myth and smoke.

Umm, the fact that many turn to grey markers to get investment outside of China. China is not a free place. There are TONS of capital controls in place, in an effort to prop up the state currency. One such capital control is the limits on foreign investment. You’re allowed to buy other currencies, limited to holdings of $50k, meant to be for vacationing and travel funds.

reed5point0

The above examples are what someone who says "I'm in it for the tech" likely means regarding the blockchain. But we all have our favorite networks or hubs like COSMOS, ETH, ADA, DOT, SOL blah blah blah...but each of those "hubs" have TONS of projects inside of them. [Map of the COSMOS for example](https://mapofzones.com/home?columnKey=ibcVolume&period=24h) SO likely when you encounter someone, imagine them being in a gang. COSMOS is the set I claim. So if you ask me for a reputable DEX to use, I'll likely suggest OSMOSIS. If you want NFTS I'll send you to STARGAZE or STASHH. Whereas an ETH or ZK maxi will send you to UNISWAP or OPENSEA... so no matter who you ask you're going to get biased answers based on their gang affiliations

>This confirms the attempt of the US government to cut off access to Bitcoin for the general public. Without any actual evidence that the US government has done something to affect this change this proves nothing of the sort. Make no mistake, I don't trust the government to leave BTC alone, but the fact that BTC machines have gone down in the US doesn't mean the government is at fault. Let's face it, their fees are high, they're all KYC, they're less conveinent than buying at home. Basically, they're worse in every way. I've seen dozens, if not more BTC ATMs in stores. I have never seen someone use one in person. To me it's no wonder there are fewer. I'm surprised it's taken this long. This post reads like Taxi drivers arguing there are less taxis because the US government is forcing them out, and ignoring that there are plenty of alternative solutions that aren't getting any governement support at all. Yes, we need to try to prevent the government from over-regulating BTC, but let's not immediately assume that anything bad happening to BTC is the result of governement policy. There's TONS of other factors at play.

Most who don't work in power grids or infrastructure don't really understand how electricity works. Most every power grid on the planet is wasteful. It overproduces electricity. When it doesn't the users experience blackouts. This extra is called "reserve capacity". Typically it's about 10-20% above utilization. There are bitcoin mining companies working on utilizing the reserve-capacity. This is likely the "nuclear" project you saw. It's logical since miners can be yanked offline in a matter of milliseconds releasing that capacity to the grid. Bringing a warehouse of miners offline to release reserve capacity back to the grid is the fastest way to boost capacity, by many many orders of magnitude. Switching power from miners to the grid can be done in milliseconds. So if every power substation directed 80% of it's reserve-capacity to miners to regain expenses, is this "carbon neutral". The reserve capacity is normally just pumped into ground (aka that "ground" pin in your electrical outlet). There is TONS of spare capacity in the world. Miners today aren't even a blip in that utilization.

Yep. But there are TONS of different ways to get scammed that bypass those methods, which is my point. You may be talking about reddit and moons, but if someone wants your shit, in general, they'll look for different ways to get it since you've already posted those methods won't "work" on you. But hey, speaking of marks, if you think you can't get scammed, that makes you an even a bigger mark. Smells like a challenge to them.

We were considering global bans back in 2010 when Wikileaks wanted to accept bitcoin for the first time. Satoshi was a bit scared of the fallout (he called it kicking a nest of hornets) but cooler heads won out and WL started accepting it in 2011. Now China's banned it and TONS of chinese are still saving in it because they have no better alternatives. Some say it does better in countries where it's banned because the populace is forced to see the use case. It's just hard for them to get their hands on though, but never impossible.

1. Yes. A person could be threatened into giving up their devices and/or passwords or seed phrases. 2. There are multiple ways this could be done. Either in person with threats of violence, or online through scams or malware. I'm not sure what you mean by "username". There are no usernames in bitcoin. 3. It could happen now, or earlier. The very early days of bitcoin were less secure, so it may have been easier. 4. This depends on how they are stealing it and how the victim is holding their BTC. It could be a password only if they have it all on an exchange. 5. Again, depends on how it's stored. A software wallet could be easily transferred from a phone. Some hardware wallets need a PC to plug into. 6. There are TONS of articles and stories about ways people have lost BTC to scammers and thieves. Almost always, it could have been easily avoided if the victim was more careful. In some instances it was stolen through force, but that is the minority by a large margin.

Games need to be good. If a blockchain improves a game, it can be added. If not, then keep it away from it. There are zero good blockchain games there right now. It’s not about being AAA or not, there are TONS of really good indie games out there that manage to be an actual good game. Revolutionary thought - maybe collectibles don’t make games better but worse. Maybe it’s about having a good story and good gameplay mechanics that make a game good. Maybe if you’re able to “buy” good equipment in some form, the game looses its meaning. There is undoubtedly a lot of money to be made by putting microtransactions, collectibles, gambling mechanics and whatnot into games. But none of that makes a game better. So if you start to think about “how can I design a game around a tradable token” you will end up with bot farms in Pakistan.

I don't understand why you think the players have to lose in order for the company to profit. Some people don't buy any packs or cards and play for free. Some people buy some packs and some cards from other players. Some people don't buy packs and only buy single cards from other players. Some people, more than you think, BUY TONS of packs and hold onto them, selling them at a later date, for a profit. The play to earn pays out more if you win more, but they still sell so many packs that they always profit. Even if you lose every game, if you spent nothing, you will still make a profit from P2E, it would just be a tiny amount. You have to understand that there are whales out there that have HUNDREDS, even THOUSANDS of ETH laying around and are willing to take a risk on investing it in NFTs that have an actual use case and could very well increase in value some day. I've talked to some on GU community discords, and some do it just for the fun of it. Go look at Tokentrove dot com and you can see the recently traded cards and their value on the marketplace.

Actually, they ask this due to the massive scams comming from India asking for wire transfers. Check on google, TONS of videos on how the scam works and how they tell you to answer the exact same questions you were asked

Some time back many were saying BUSD is so much safer than USDT, and there has been TONS AND TONS of USDT fud in this sub. Despite all the USDT fud it is BUSD that has gone down the drain first. Guess you never really know in the cryptoverse.

Yep, it was a surprise for some people when Oprah gave her audience cars for free on her talk show. TONS of people surprised with a brand new car that they now own. Then when tax time comes they realized they had to pay taxes on it. It can differ by the state that you live in in the US however. So I would check your location, but usually you do have to pay tax. Tax man is relentless.

I follow TONS of crypto "analyst" on YouTube, FB, Twitter and NO one has been able to (1) Predict Bitcoin (or any coin) correctly in the short term (not talking about a few flukes). None has been consistent. And (2) Never have been able to explain the reason WHY it went up (or down) in a given day (e..g 1 day they will say it went up cause inflation went up, next time inflation will go up again but BTC will fall.. or same with interest rates, war, etc)

Tryingtodoit23

My perspective: used to have 4 houses, Now have 2. Half my net worth will be tied in btc within 5 years. I think housing is a store of value. Even though rents/mortage payments make housing in my eyes NOT a good deal historically, I think people will still run to housing as a store of value. I think it will stay decently high/higher. Rates will go lower long term. They have to. Why? How can the us afford to pay the debt with the GDP growing slower than debt. The answer is simple: either hugely negative real rates, yield curve control \*aka low rates, or both. Housing goes higher with this. It's quite possible that houses today are worth $3x of todays value. However, this will require huge increases in currency or a huge collapse in China where money would flow to the US as a safe haven (it is possible). The question is if a ton of money prints, it's probably bitcoin going up a lot more. Renters imho should be buying bitcoin (and other assets, but for this convo I'll keep it at bitcoin). Here's why: out of the people I know, the ones left are way too late to the party. Will property go up? Yea I think so as rates go lower. But the risks are major. And the upside is limited (compared to btc). My tenant was a friend and I literally told him this: bro, go live with your parents. You can stack $3,000 a month rent for 1 year, possibly 18 months. My simple math, and I use my friend as a real example who lives in Southern California. Housing is about leverage. if you put 5% down, you get 20x leverage. A decent condo 1 bedroom costs $500k. Even at 5% down, that's 25k (we are assuming zero fees which is unfair). What's a long term strong precision for housing? that it doubles. So that 25k gains 500k in equity. 25k/500k = 20x on your money. If that happens, I assume rates are down to 3%-4% max, and the amount of money is up at least 50%. What happens in that scenario in 10 years? BTC probably 500k-1,000,000. So a 20x to 40x. The problem is that housing is ONLY GOING UP IF TONS OF MONEY IS PRINTED BY THE US AND RATES GO LOWER. BTC goes up due to technological adoption. Risks: if you are renting you can go barebones. you can live with parents. you can work from home and eat rice and chicken and stack every dollar. You owning has tons of risks. Renting has such limited upside. And let me go to my crucial argument, my personal opinion: I know about 100 people. I'm 39. I only a few I know that I consider smart haven't bought. The upside is so, so limited compared to btc.

>TONS of ppl only use CEXs to store their coins Therein lies the problem. People need to be taught and guided towards self custody from the start and using defi if they want to get yield. Remove the middle man. Use CEXs for getting money in and out of crypto. Nothing more.

IcArUs362

Lol no not at all. I get it. I usually would keep mine in my hardware wallet as well. However, TONS of ppl only use CEXs to store their coins, and even more ppl use CEXs at least every so often to make trades or other txs. Obviously you're not the target audience of this idea.... this idea is for those of us who have watched these platforms fail one after another.... Celsius, Luna, FTX, and even further, Coinbase and Binance are being sketchy about their holdings now. I'm tired of having to worry about such entities failing and I know tons of others are too. I think it's overdue that somebody build a platform that's transparent about their holdings and actions, or potentially even one in the future that's decentralized and run by its users through a DAO.

I love how detached delusional teenagers who haven't worked in a corporate setting actually think CEOs are paid that much to sit around not doing anything. YES we can agree 99% of CEOs are overpaid, but this has to do with equity being their primary compensation and if you do a good job as CEO your equity goes to the moon so you raise your own pay as the incentive. I've met TONS of middle management that is totally useless fluff to a company that could be fired with no impact. They work probably 20hrs max and mostly meetings or delegating. Never ever met a higher level exec who wasn't constantly booked running from nonstop meetings all day and often doing their leadership recap meeting at 5 or 6 or even 7pm since that's the only time other execs have free on their calendar once everyone else is off work. You bet your ass weekends are used once in a while for shit they couldn't fit in the week or travel.

It is easier to hide and trade the funds on Alameda's balance sheet than FTX's. First of all Alameda had TONS of FTT to borrow against. However over 2 Billion USD of this was already used as collateral. Alameda then had 37% of the entire supply of USDT which would make liquidation of funds much easier.

I agree, companies do have to make money. As a consumer we gotta work together bro find the model we deem most fair. FYI Coinbase spread is ridiculous and fees are just as high as cashapp. A lot of bigger CEXs are making TONS of money by fleecing their customers through spread and fees, those that aren't usually have a big withdrawal fee to discourage self custody and allowing them to make more paper Bitcoin. I've found Kraken to be the absolute best CEX for BTC. Oh! Check out this site I found too. It really helps make sure you won't be charged an arm and a leg to withdraw after you make your purchase. Withdrawalfees.com

You guys all in dreamland. BTC and eth down 70-80% wtf? CEX makes TONS of cash. all they doin is weathering the bear. hunkering down. Better than celcius. Cro isn't going anywhere. Still the most recognisable crypto out there and World cup will cement that. Im sure mistakes were made, but you will see. If LUNC can do what it did, CRO will crush it. BLOOD in the streets is when u buy, use the card for what it "gets" you figure it out, rookies.

Lol are you that simple? He printed money to save the country from a horrible economic collapse during Covid. People like you are what’s wrong with the current crypto environment. You get spoon fed some moronic headline about government and decide you’re smart enough to formulate opinions on complex issues like inflation. You’re straight up stupid if you think the economy would be in a better place without that money printing having occurred. There is TONS of evidence out there supporting what Covid relief did for world economies. You choose to ignore it, or just aren’t smart enough to understand something more complex than “bad man print money, bad man bad leader”

The point is that those landfills and oil wells are doing two things right now: 1. THROWING TONS OF MONEY AWAY EVERY SECOND 2. Painting a target on their backs to the EPA & ESG squads by letting greenhouse gases get vented or flaired. All these companies have to do is pick up the phone to a company like Vespene and soon they'll be accepting tons of money in exchange for stopping their greenhouse gas emmissions. (And whatever ESG tyranny they now face for emmitting.)

Show me proof that there is "LITERALLY TONS of liquidity for that trade".

TheDudeInTheMirror

You are not understanding what they are saying. RocketPool itself does not provide a rETH to ETH trade, but there is LITERALLY TONS of liquidity for that trade. Go to Uniswap right now and check for yourself, you don’t even have to believe me. It’s all on-chain.

Please don't fell for it, especially for mambo jumbo like technical analysis .. there is no WAY to cheat the system.. you either need TONS of money to make it... or tons of luck.. Choose on from those two and move on. Back in the day there was a nice meme.. a blind monkey throwing darts on a board with alts names. That's all basically everyone out there can use me or you as his exit liquidity and we won't even realize it until charts peak looks like mountain Everest :) Trust your gut .. if you are rich it's easier.. if not well.. I wish you the best :)

Gold farmers are not a bad thing in web3 gaming. They provide liquidity for the game's economy. I'm with YGG and that's basically their goal - to provide liquidity, and create a next-gen video game workforce. As for the bots and cheaters - for sure they're bad. Bots in particular are a huge problem from what I've seen in some of the fledgling blockchain games I'm playing/keeping my eye on. Cheaters do get punished when they're caught, though. And it's far more painful when money's on the line. In web3, sending royalties to the game creators is absolutely enforceable. In fact, because of this mechanism, they are incentivized to create and sustain a robust economy so that their revenue stream continues uninterrupted. The various "advantages" offered through buying land and other nfts is entirely dependent on the game's mechanics. For example, in The Sandbox, owning land will let you create your own games/experiences on it that others can play, too (you can even charge admission). In a game I'm paying attention to, called Civitas, owning land lets you live in a city, contribute to its development, vote, etc. If you don't want to pay, their free-to-play option is to play as a nomad, where you can earn tokens and eventually save up to buy land (I should mention that they have devs from Eve: Online on their staff). Meanwhile, in Genopets, owning land allows you to earn tokens and craft items. And yes, while many games have their own economies, very few have ones where you can cash out, or are even interoperable with other games. Game development is going to give us the foundation of the metaverse - there is TONS of innovation going on as we speak.

Read a little bit more: Pertsev, a 29-year old involved in developing the crypto-mixer service Tornado Cash was arrested Aug. 12 by Dutch authorities on suspicion of fraud, environmental crime and asset seizure. So his charges are fraud, environmental crime and asset seizure? These sound… fake? Or I don’t see any evidence for these charges anyways. The good news is TONS of people are rallying to Alex, with petitions signed by thousands of people and protests happening.

I've been in it since 2015, so I've got TONS! * Was gonna sell all my silver in the Summer of 2016 ($5000 at the time) and YOLO into ETH, but didn't sell because of the crash in Silver and ETH later that week. * Sold all my Ethereum classic for $2 right after the DAO split because I thought it was going to zero * Sold 1/3 of my ETH at $225 in the summer of 2017 after it had crashed huge from $400. I used the money to buy land, then sold the land at a slight loss 2 months before Covid started. That same land just sold for triple what I sold it for 😑 * Created a bunch of ENS names when it first came out, and stopped paying attention to stuff. Last week I just found out there was an airdrop, and I didn't claim my tokens in time. \~1200 ENS token lost forever...

In BTC network, when you create a new wallet, you generate a public and a private key. The private key is an alphanumeric string, generated by hashing together to the 12/15/24/… words. The public key is an other alphanumeric string and is ONLY 1. Fortunately this supports a hierarchical system to generate TONS of other public keys, all from the first one. So yes, you can use a different adress for every transaction, but you are only using different descendants of the same key.

Reading your comment about people only wanting profits, the Tezos Foundation steers far away from getting venture capitalist to dump money in tezos. Tezos has TONS of corporate sponsorships (The Grammy's, Manchester United, Red Bull, F1 McLaren, Société General, Ubisoft, All Star Circuit, NY Mets Stadium, FloSports, soon to be Spotify, etc.) and this is just a guess but I'd assume the TF doesn't want crazy price swings brought by VC's when they have multi billion dollar companies building on the platform. They prefer a natural growth.

Kraken #1 for long term overall best exchange and coinex is my 2nd favorite cause they have TONS of coins, very low fees, and leverage trading etc.

Don't forget there's also been TONS of corrections of 20-40% that didn't turn into the great depression or dot com bubble or GFC. Actually the chances of this being just a correction(at least for stocks) is way higher than a once in a lifetime financial crisis. Lots of what's up with inflation still seem to be supply chain issues. Commodities seem to have gotten past that in the last few months, and it will trickle into the production and distribution chains.

coinsrfun

They need to have some type of certification process to avoid scams. I dont see it... Maybe I missed it... There are TONS of marketplaces. People put their stuff on the one that has the traffic and safety (well as safe as can be). Has Gamestop addressed this at all? For those that dont understand - think of Opensea as Ebay, and Gamestop as facebook marketplace, or something...

HubbleGotChu

You seem to think that everyone has the same situation. I have a couple friends who do not have a car and work from home or have a short walk to work and multiple grocery stores within a kilometre radius. When you live in a densely populated city nearly all your necessities are in walking distance. Maybe a bike? TONS of ways to get around a car my friend

He same shitty old gold where they found 31 million TONS of it in Uganda recently. You won't find 31 more million Bitcoin out of thin air to inflate the shit out of supply.

There are definitely crypto-capable accountants, there are TONS of crypto millionaires, and they all need accountants, so these people are around. Google, find one you like, check for reviews/opinion, and contact them.

I can't believe how far this post has gotten, OP is such a dumbasas. CDC is FAR from a perfect company but the WD fees are CLEARLY stated if you have a little BIT of common sense to look for them. It's no secret CDC SUCKS for certain Networks but they also support TONS of networks too, it's really up to the user's common sense to use the right networks and plan accordingly. I'll say it again, OP is the dumbest user I've seen post in a while. Holy shit.

LMFAO! Why say that when it's positive. There have been TONS when it was negative and you people didn't complain.

I was taught that: * a defect is something that does not conform to requirements Examples: Wrong font color, wrong wording, required function does not exist (but code works otherwise) * a bug is the code is not working properly - such as errors, crashes, etc. Examples: 404 not found, script errors, search for "Jones" got "smith" instead, etc. TONS of overlap between the two.

Yes. And yes, this one is civil. No one is under any obligation to appear. However,they tend to Default if they do not appear. And if it is a debtor's exam that is served on them after judgment, failure to appear is contempt of court, punishable by bench warrant bring issued. Only problem is that there are TONS of outstanding bench warrants that are presently "unserved".

The post yesterday with the tweets from people who had their investments on Celsius was heart breaking. Especially for the guy who said he convinced family and friends to invest on that platform and they had TONS of money on it, only for all of them to be wiped clean, and he felt responsible.

Other big difference is that we have TONS of companies with stocks. We have just a few “reliable” projects (remove all the ShibaElonDickMoons and you have like 1000 projects) so it’s easier to follow them, comparing to companies. Riskier though.

The fact of the matter is that this time around, we are entering a bear market following TONS of adoption. It might be speculative, but the big players are speculating with us

The choice is clear. The US dollar can barely by a pea now and elite bankers are creating TONS buying up real assets. People won't be fooled forever. I'm buying bitcoin as low as it wants to go. The lower, the more I buy.

To all the new investors who don’t want to get misled by this subreddit, I’m going to explain to you what is going on again. Bitcoin always retraces to its 200 WEEK moving average. That’s about $22,256 currently. You can track it online, Near this is when smart (er) people buy. Anybody who told you to buy in the $40,000s $30,000, $50,000 etc was not acting in your best interest or they were just not the most informed or most experienced investor in risky assets like bitcoin. While the 200 WEEK moving average is important you need to assess risk further and look for ‘gaps’ on the charts, particularly the 5 year and max charts. There are gaps that take bitcoin to its prior all time high around $19,000 and there is a gap to about $15,900 as well. The lowest gap I can see on the 5 year would take it to about $4,000, that gap is from March 2019 if you take a look. These gaps are weak points, price memory, astronomy whatever you want to call it, it’s the same as in stocks, but I guarantee if you identify them you will improve your trading or investment strategy in bitcoin or stocks and yourself buying power. They generally always close even if it takes years to do so. In summary, if you want to own bitcoin and accept the risks the time to buy is closer than it has been, but you must be aware of the above information I have given you and plan your investment strategy accordingly. This subreddit has caused TONS of people to lose lots of money in the past year and more importantly buying power. It needs more reasonable people who look out for new investors instead of merely pumping and honestly nearly conning new investors in my opinion. But maybe people are really just innocently oblivious who knows. My suggestion to the mods would be to give some type of flair to people to identify reasonable, level headed people who know something about investing and aren’t just the ‘I bought bitcoin at 10 cents, look at me, just buy now to be like me’ people. This price correction HAD to happen. Regardless of the fed, inflation whatever people’s excuse is. It’s good for bitcoin. Good luck. Disclaimer: I own bitcoin. I also hate seeing people lose their hard earned money and buying power.

mecca666

>Where are those people now? Well they are probably too scared right now and the majority likely already left the market in January of this year or so. &#x200B; I like (not) how you made this up. Anyways, TONS of people have been buying the dips. We are literally in the redistribution phase.

It's not just the stim checks but they triggered a big part of it. Inflation takes time to build. The stim checks injected TONS of free money into the system in order to keep the economy going but it also elevated demand to unprecedented levels which strained already struggling supply chains, manufacturing centers and transportation, none of which can be fixed with "free moneh". So supply was decreased while demand went through the roof. Once on-hand inventories started vanishing due to the insane demand generated by all the "Fre Moneh" prices started to go up because of the supply/demand curve. Then a war broke out, china shut down and supply got even LOWER (fun). Additionally energy costs have been ticking up due to supply chain issues and then got elevated again by Russia's war. So we have runaway demand decreasing supply and, thus, inflation. On top of that we still have the pandemic and other macro factors and, now, to fight the inflation the fed has to raise rates, which means all that "free moneh" out there is no longer free and companies, and private citizens, will now have to pay higher interest rates on all those fun loans they took out (other than fixed rate). As the interest rates go up liquidity gets yanked out of markets to service debt. People get laid off to free up capital by businesses and raises cease in order to preserve capital to fund all that debt that everyone has taken on. We aren't just facing inflation. If the FED isn't extremely careful (and very lucky) we're going to wind up in stagflation where inflation is still happening while people are being laid off and salaries remain frozen. It'll be the 70's all over again.

>Zero sum means the total amount of money in the system remains the same. No one is using bitcoin as a currency. They are buying and hodling. People obviously use crypto or else 100% of its blockspace would go empty and all trading would be done off-chain. You can even see on its public ledger that yes in fact people are using it, they're even spending TONS of money to use it. They obviously get something out of it or they would not be doing this. You're projecting what you *think* crypto is on me but you're wrong. Just because you're a spectator doesn't mean everyone is, or even most people. Damn. You're just telling me we need another -50% to wash people like you away. The people left will only be people who 'use crypto' which for some reason you can't grasp. Spectators like you are **negative** sum because you bring nothing to the table. >You're confusing market cap and liquidity. > >Let's try another example: I mint 10,000 shitcoins, and sell you one shitcoin for $100. Am I a millionaire now? You're confusing confidence with intelligence. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-sum_thinking Let's go over this briefly because I don't have time anymore. >Zero-sum thinking perceives situations as zero-sum games, where one person's gain would be another's loss. The term is derived from game theory. However, unlike the game theory concept, zero-sum thinking refers to a psychological construct—a person's subjective interpretation of a situation. >E.G. In a negotiation when one negotiator thinks that they can only gain at the expense of the other party (i.e., that mutual gain is not possible) If your shitcoin is necessary to use blockspace **and there is demand for blockspace**, it doesn't matter what the *price* of your shitcoin is because people are apparently willing to pay for it. Take Ethereum for example, it's expensive but people are spending $10M/day to use it anyway when there are nearly free alternatives like Solana. If you bought 1,000,000 Ethereum back when it was 30c YES you would be a millionaire right now because demand is there. Ethereum price could 10x or /10 and there will still be demand for its blockspace each day. Crypto is a utility and the coins are utility coins. You can't use the utility without spending the coin. Just like you can't heat your house without using gas. That gas isn't zero sum because 'there is a buyer and a seller' because the buyer used the gas right up and went to buy more.

Yeah cuz he’s just getting TONS AND TONS of people from this sub to just dump their money into it from this post???… Uh what??

the good news is, these younger millenials dont wanna work, so i have TONS of overtime this time of year. dca like a mofo.

For item 4 intrinsic demand, I always think of how much better the metric system is over imperial. the US government spent TONS of money trying to convert to metric in the late 70s… and failed. Bitcoin / crypto does NOT even have the backing of major governments. my gut tells me that getting Bitcoin widely accepted for everyday people/transactions is going to be a huge uphill battle.

Sure but point is TONS of money that cannot afford to be lost IS intelligently invested in our financial markets, crypto or otherwise. BTW growth stock investors are doing far worse than btc investors over the last 4 months

You might be a bit mis/disinformed. NFTs def aren’t the cause for the most recent collapse, nor are they going to disappear. Sure the majority of NFTs are currently on ETH and SOL, because that’s where the most profit potential is (and loss potential), but they aren’t the only ones in existence. Tbh I don’t really care for NFTs in the slightest on either of those blockchains, but to each is their own. There’s TONS of legitimate use cases for NFTs. The Cardano ecosystem is one of the few places doing it right, and is actually affordable for the average user (esp with this most recent pullback). All I’m saying is don’t completely write it off. Mainstream media and the echo chamber that is Reddit literally only highlights the negative outliers of crypto and NFTs. The exponentially growing Cardano community believes that NFTs are going to be a bit more revolutionary and integral to the overall growth of blockchain adoption, and uplifting of varying types of artists, including many niche and under appreciated communities. Check out the Cardano ecosystem on Twitter and in Twitter spaces. We’re welcoming to all <3 Also, NFTs aren’t just jpgs :)
