ETH

FairMongoose5583

i’m not sure i agree it’s the worst possible thing they could do. if you don’t want to buy ETH, don’t. i think at the very least, they should offer stablecoins. i don’t think schwab would ever offer any random low quality meme coins but definitely more than just BTC and ETH

Awkward_Potential_

"More coins" is the worst possible thing they could do. Bitcoin and ETH is enough. And I wouldn't even have chosen ETH if it were up to me

Acceptable_While95

But when fractional shares? Anyways, the possibility to buy and sell BTC/ETH like stocks (same experience) instead of a separate app is great. Would like to see USDC as well, and be able to withdraw to wallets (send/receive).

A couple of my faves were I was buying ETH under $10 still have a lot of it. Also I bought 4 shares of BRK-B before the BNSF purchase and they split which added them to the S&P 500. I DCAed both on the way up. I quit buying ETH when it got to about $800. I do have it staked so I'm earning more. BRK-B I quit buying at about $150 with 1100+ shares.

ETH and BTC about 8 years ago. The gain is nice but it is also a very interesting space between the hacks, regulation, protocol updates, dapps and many interesting people.

Aggravating_Ad8435

3 that so far have been life changing financially for me (2 really good, 1 big miss): 1) During the GFC period (2009ish), loaded up on some tech stocks with my meager savings at the time. I put all my liquid net worth into Apple, Amazon, Google, Oracle, Salesforce, and a couple other big tech names. Largely held over the years. That meager amount ended up being a decent nest egg so far. I didn't have any specific foresight, I just understood tech better than other sectors and believed in US software. 2) Around 2018/19, had a hunch that semis as a whole were going to expand secularly due to some combination of AI (I did not have the foresight of predicting the LLM wave, but even back then it was clear to me that machine learning was going to be embedded into more and more systems), proliferation of sensors/IoT, autonomous vehicles, and robotics. So I bought a chunk of semis names including TSMC, Broadcom, AMD, Intel, and NVIDIA. It wasn't a big % of my holdings but have since become a much larger % over time. Funny enough, I almost didn't pull the trigger on NVDA because at the time it seemed expensive and had already gone up 8x or so in the prior couple of years. 3) I took a cryptography class in 2009 and we read the original Bitcoin paper, had a big class discussion on cryptocurrencies and blockchain. I thought it was the stupidest idea in the world. A few years later, some engineer friends of mine raved about BTC and told me I should mine some. I think it was around $0.50 per BTC at the time. I still thought it was the stupidest idea in the world. A few years later, after BTC had a big run, another friend told me about Ethereum and how much better it was, primarily in transaction speed. He told me to buy some. I don't remember the price but it was definitely <$1.00 per ETH. I just ignored him. Lessons learned: * Try to identify a broad secular trend, and load up on the biggest names in that trend. I wasn't smart enough to know exactly which co would be the #1 or #2 player, but a composite of 5-10 leaders should perform well if the trend holds up * When really smart and technical friends rave about some new technical thing, pay attention once in a while. It might not hurt to put a tiny bit of capital into whatever they're evangelizing

Navigating the crypto options space is definitely a bit of a headache right now since everything is still maturing. Honestly, Deribit is probably your best bet for BTC or ETH options because of the liquidity, but man, the KYC process is a total slog if you value privacy.If you’re looking for perpetuals instead of standard options, you might wanna check out markets .xyz (just remove the space). It’s pretty solid because you can trade with up to 50x leverage. The best part tho is the social feed—you can actually see verified trades from other people, which is super helpful when you're still trying to figure out the ropes.There's also Ribbon Finance, but honestly, it feels way more limited compared to the others. Just my two cents!What kind of strategies are you looking to run—are you more into hedging or just straight up speculation?

asdafari14

> How does any of that flow to the passive Ethereum holder? Flows aren't everything. If the stablecoin market goes from 0 to 300B in six years, that will also have an effect on price of ETH since it secures the network. If the whole ETH network could be bought for 1B USD, it could never secure that much. Bitcoin doesn't earn fees and the network is worth 1T+. Should the whole network be worth thousands or even millions USD at this scale? No.

Just sold some ETH at a loss to feel something and ensure my loss streak continues 🙌

Responsible-Tip6940

Hey! Since you already know equity options, you’re ahead. Crypto options work similarly, but the market’s way more volatile. Most people stick to BTC or ETH first. I’d focus on spreads or hedged positions rather than straight calls/puts. Key things to watch are volume, open interest, and implied volatility. And definitely size your trades smaller because crypto can swing 20%+ in a day. Your equity options experience will help a lot, just adjust for the wildness here.

Accurate_Shift_3118

if you’re coming from equity options, biggest shift is crypto is way more retail-driven and less structured, no real market close, more violent moves, and IV can stay elevated for longer without mean-reverting cleanly like equities. “consistent income” is harder than it sounds here, a lot of premium selling works until it suddenly doesn’t because of sharp moves, most people stick to BTC/ETH options since liquidity is decent, anything else gets sketchy fast, indicators matter less than understanding flows, funding rates, liquidations, and positioning honestly edge in crypto options is thinner unless you’re very disciplined, it’s easier to get chopped trying to force consistency than just trading direction or staying selective

Accurate_Shift_3118

it’s not really about which has more upside, it’s about risk, stocks compound from real cash flows, crypto runs more on adoption and cycles, so higher upside but also longer drawdowns. going all in either way isn’t great, you’re just swapping risks. better approach is stocks as your core and crypto as a smaller high-upside bet, especially since stuff like metaverse coins is much more narrative driven than ETH

Fun-Sundae4060

Invest in both. ETH, BTC, and stocks as part of a diversification plan. I own 5-6 different asset classes including crypto.

_zir_

I was doing the same daily buys as always but my cash id drying up so now just VTI and ETH daily.

calculussmash

Some of you will be wondering if you should buy into ETH when it hits 8k instead of buying here at the bottom

Lanky_Commercial9731

It's not going to 0 unless crypto goes to 0. He is good. The worst case scenario BMNR or ETH never recovers.

Ill_Meat1457

Rolling bear markets feel “fine” right up until correlations snap and everything starts moving together. What’s been different this time is breadth was already ugly (tons of stocks down 30–50%) while the indexes got propped up by a smaller and smaller group, so the -10% headline doesn’t capture how long risk has been leaking out. If you’re staying long-term invested, the main thing I’m watching is whether we get actual liquidation (credit spreads blowing out, forced selling) vs just rotation continuing but at lower levels. Also worth noting crypto tends to act like high-beta liquidity now, so when equities go from “dip” to “de-risk,” it usually doesn’t get a free pass. If you’re trying to sanity-check whether BTC/ETH and the majors are turning back into leaders or still just catching falling knives, I’ve been using StrongBuyAnalytics’ scanner to quickly see what’s actually holding up: [https://strongbuyanalytics.com/crypto-scanner](https://strongbuyanalytics.com/crypto-scanner)

Ill_Meat1457

Rainbow chart is a fun meme overlay, but it’s basically just a log-scale trend band with vibes. If you want something a little more actionable, I’d zoom out to weekly and watch the 200W MA area and prior cycle ATH zone for whether price accepts back above or keeps getting sold, and then zoom in to see if you’re getting higher lows on RSI/price (actual momentum shift) instead of just “below gay zone = buy.” Also worth checking if the move is led by BTC only or if ETH and majors are confirming; when breadth is garbage, bounces tend to be chops. If you want a quick way to eyeball that breadth/momentum across coins without flipping through 30 tabs, I’ve been using this scanner to build a watchlist: [https://strongbuyanalytics.com/crypto-scanner](https://strongbuyanalytics.com/crypto-scanner)

ETH and others are holding up with it. I don’t think anyone can really explain why they’ve held up well. Perhaps by this point most holders are not paper handed and we’ve reached sufficient diversity of ownership

OGuytheWhackJob

I left my pc's on mining ETH and got paid in BTC for a few years. Had just short of 10BTC that I sold in 2017 to use as a slush fund gaming equipment/funny money when it went from around 2k to 4k in a few months. There is no world where I hang onto those coins past 5k, let alone where it got to. No regrets on that one. I'm still buying stuff I wouldn't have otherwise with that money. Would it have been nice to have that kind of windfall? Absolutely, but I'm not wired that way.

My equities are just a dividend ETF composed mainly of energy and financials, since my goal with it is stability. For crypto I'm holding ETH because I think it's at an attractive price relative to its history. But this is all in the context of my shorter timeframe.

Fair point. I can see why it might look like a scam. I’m not very familiar with the promo rules here, so I just said DM without thinking it might come across that way. My bad. I’m actually building an alpha-stage options DEX that offers BTC and ETH options with tighter spreads and better capital efficiency. The goal is to let traders run option-selling strategies with less margin than typical brokers like Robinhood. We’re planning to support equity options as well in the near future. If sharing the product link here is allowed, I’m happy to post it publicly instead of asking for DMs.

Own-Cartographer409

Selling options is mostly a winning strategy. If you manage Greeks well, it can last forever. This is why institutions prefer to build structured positions with volatility selling. If you want to sell options for BTC and ETH, DM me. By the way, does it require much margin?

I hold positions in ETH and ETHY. My ETHY position outperformed ETH itself massively.

Prestigious_Suit_202

5% is an overestimate, plus you have to consider the fees and liquidity. the more liquid staking is more around 2-3% which is hardly enough to battle inflation. the ETF youre talking about makes its income from selling CCs on ETH exposure, giving up the upside, so if ETH rockets, you miss out on the gains you would just holding ETH.

Bonghead13

Staking. 5% ish compounding on holdings. If you are Canadian and bought ETHY right now, you'd be getting a 30% yield with shares that move roughly in sync with ETH

Prestigious_Suit_202

if you bought ETH in april 2021, you would have the exact same amount of money as you do now, minus the effect of inflation on your "investment", and all the missed compound interest for 5 years. also, if you DCA'd since then you'd probably even have a higher cost basis than the current price and be sitting on an even bigger loss. its a perfect investment for a highly highly regarded individual. thank you for your attention to this matter.

Sader. I was drilling into a wall in 2018 in my house. My stud finder said I was in wood, but it went through to easily. I pushed further and hit the hot water pipe. It shot a 30 ft maximum water temp through the wall to the other side of my place. I addressed the water frantically.  Months later, I was looking for my codes because I'd bought a new trezor. I couldn't find them and couldn't remember the code to get into the trezor I had. I looked everywhere. I eventually found them in my bookshelf that had been hit 30ft across by the water. Water damaged, faded away. all BTC and ETH purchased from 2016-2017, gone. (11btc+, and 80eth+). I was spooked from it all and didnt want to ever touch it again. In 2020, I slowly starting buying again. In 2021, had reaccumulated 1.6 btc from slow purchases. put all of it into SPELL. it ran up to 8BTC + worth. Then it came out that the treasury for SPELL was connected to QUADRIGACX collapse and potential founder death. It fucking cratered before I was even aware since I wasn't frequently checking. It fell all the way back to pretty much my initial, AND I HELD. SUNK COST FALLACY hit hard with LOSS AVERSION. (understand these). I took the 'last' BTC I had and wanted to put it somewhere 'secure'. I SHOULD have put it into USDC or USDT if I had the knowledge I have now. My cousins who had been in before me, and with the feeling of SCF and LA alive in me, had me highly suggestible to any insights or recommendations. They recommended I put I put it into a 'blue chip NFT'. so I bought a high rarity Doodle. :(.  A few months later, Doodle pumped and I didn't sell.  A few months after that, the Doodle founder came out saying 'Doodle was never meant to be an investment vehicle', CRATERED 80-90%.  so from 1.64 reaccumulated BTC (+ 20 ETH that I had on the side making some trades), I went up to 8BTC, greed held, cratered to 0.4 BTC. ETH from 20> 46>4>2).  Loss aversion brings me back to this, and other effed up investments

At 20 you’ve got time to experiment a bit. I treat crypto the same way you described, small portion of the portfolio, mostly curiosity and long term exposure. OpenSea has been useful for me because I can actually explore different chains and tokens in one place, which helped me understand the space better instead of just buying BTC or ETH blindly.

Sorry guys, I shouldn't have said ETH. I actually only received .90 premium. I do understand I sold the shares but I had to buy them first (Well that was all automated of course). From my interpretation, my average cost per share was 257.43/ share . If I received a credit of 2.432 (I didn't), my cost per share would be 255-2.432 (249.57). I would have closed my position if there was any gain in it at 4:59ET. Honestly, I blew it and was unaware of the potential event w/ them otherwise I likely would not have entered into this particular contract. Very cheap lesson here but I really would love to know how they seemed to time their exercise at the point when this was trading at nearly the highest valuation during this event which ended up costing me the highest possible amount. This is what I see (Notice average price): [https://preview.redd.it/have-a-question-on-short-call-assigned-in-eth-v0-n56s39zahlng1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=10ed3ccc84546452bd7e05758c4ed59572d0b101](https://preview.redd.it/have-a-question-on-short-call-assigned-in-eth-v0-n56s39zahlng1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=10ed3ccc84546452bd7e05758c4ed59572d0b101)

ETH is Extended Trading Hours, for those contracts that continue to trade past the normal market close. It's also and more commonly the symbol for Ethereum (crypto), so it's an abbreviation designed to cause maximum confusion.

Isn't ETH the whole market..? Or was that an ETF..?

(You could always use an image hosting site like imgur to link to images. I'm looking at the images you posted elsewhere.) I don't know what ETH is. I assume you're talking about VRT throughout. IV was high because there was buzz that VRT was going to be added to the S&P 500. That's why the calls were still relatively expensive that late. The addition did in fact happen, which is why VRT spiked up after hours. Yes, you got assigned because someone manually exercised a long 255 strike call. You didn't buy any shares. You sold shares short, because getting assigned on a short call sells shares, and since you didn't have any, you sold them short. The 257.432 isn't a purchase price or cost basis, it's the effective sale price. Because the strike price was 255, and you received 2.432 credit for selling the call, you are considered effectively to have sold the shares for 257.432 each. You are now short 100 shares and at some point, are going to have to buy 100 shares to cover.

# Have a question on short call assigned in ETH This one is new to me but I had a 255C on VRT. Was a spread w/ a .90 premium. No earnings report due but at 4:59 the call value was still $2.15 with underlying at $242.10. Seemed strange as i don't ever seen options w/ this much extrinsic value this late. I always close before ETH but this one was paying me nothing at 4:59. [](https://preview.redd.it/have-a-question-on-short-call-assigned-in-eth-v0-7vrfwj9t6lng1.png?width=1571&format=png&auto=webp&s=2217defeeaf76be8e67b6d1f9bc73df7e9dc675e) * I have a few questions. At 5:15 it shot up and touched my 255 strike. I assume they manually exercised this since it was well past 4PM? Is that the only way this could have been done? [](https://preview.redd.it/have-a-question-on-short-call-assigned-in-eth-v0-e562g04z7lng1.png?width=1614&format=png&auto=webp&s=10225eddc9f448b4edef0e7135b04c5422adc4f1) * The actual purchase price of the underlying I purchased to fill the call appears to be $257.432 if I am interpreting the image below correctly. However, in looking at the chart in ETH, I don't see it at that price and if it was it was for a split second. It seems awful convenient they would exercise at the exact time it peaked but I don't really even see it hitting. Is it likely it was just perfect timing for this or is there some mechanism that will take the highest price in ETH and buy at that to purchase those shares called away from me? [](https://preview.redd.it/have-a-question-on-short-call-assigned-in-eth-v0-9b3qir3b8lng1.png?width=1646&format=png&auto=webp&s=4f66895f4103f728766a3cf382149c02e2dfdfdd) My P&L on this transaction came out to -$157.74 which seems close $257.43-$255-.90=$1.53 Thanks Dave

Hello Reddit Trading Community, After months of solo-development and countless sleepless nights, I am finally unveiling PriceONN — a high-speed, autonomous financial terminal designed to give retail traders the same data-processing edge that institutional desks have. I built this because I was tired of bloated, expensive, and lagging terminals. I wanted something lean, lightning-fast, and truly global. What makes PriceONN different? 0.12ms Data Engine: Our core engine processes tick data and news sentiment in real-time with sub-millisecond latency. While other platforms are still "loading," PriceONN is already delivering the signal. True Global Sentiment (10+ Languages): We don't just translate news. PriceONN autonomously analyzes financial data and sentiment in English, French, German, Russian, Japanese, and more. It understands the "mood" of the global market across different time zones simultaneously. Clean & Lightweight Architecture: Optimized to run with minimal resources (approx. 130MB RAM per node) to ensure maximum stability and speed during high-volatility events like NFP or Fed announcements. Ad-Free, Privacy-First: No annoying pop-ups, no data selling, and no cluttered UI. Just raw, actionable financial intelligence. AI-Driven Analytics: From XAUUSD to ETH and Global Indices, our AI-engine provides deep-dive "Signal Scorecards" and sentiment divergence tracking that catches reversals before the price action confirms them. Why I’m posting this here: Right now, PriceONN is in its "Global Stress Test" phase. All premium features, the terminal dashboard, and the AI-signal engine are currently open and free to use. I want the Reddit community to "roast" the speed, test the latency, and tell me what’s missing. Google and OpenAI bots have already started indexing the platform heavily, but a machine’s approval means nothing compared to a trader's feedback. Check it out here: [priceonn.com](http://priceonn.com) Safe trading to everyone! 📉📈

Apparently vitalik dumped something like $45 mil of ETH last week

ETH looks pretty good here. but so does HOOD, PYPL, and a few others.

I sold my ETH and BTC when BTC hit $149K and I feel like a genius now, I didn't then.

BTC sure, it was ETH that lead the pump today in crypto. It's because traders have been here 4 times by now and have a pretty good guess as to when it's the accumulation/bottom. I personally started buying again exactly a month ago and it was crabbing since then, only has had a breakout today.
