    Is DOGE good for something?

    'But my question was about DOGECOIN exclusively.' I beg your pardon, TreasureHunter, I didn't want to start a new thread, so I just bunged the post in here.

    Is DOGE good for something?

    'Dogecoin lacks a hard cap' Lol is that crypto-speak for ‘kicking the can down the road’? Yes, Heartastack, it sorta is! Exactly what makes Schiff's position inaccurate is that Bitcoin, unlike fiats, can't be printed willy nilly. It's called a 'hard cap.'* But not all cryptos are hard-capped...

    Is DOGE good for something?

    And it didn't come up in the DOGE discussion: Dogecoin lacks a hard cap, a serious serious shortcoming in the eyes of many crypto geeks. But it is merge-mined to Litecoin. Any crypto that is merge-mined to another (successful) crypto has an edge. I've entirely lost patience with Uno, but check...

    Is DOGE good for something?

    'Economist, financial commentator and gold advocate Peter Schiff once again bashed Bitcoin in a tweet, essentially calling it fiat currency . . ' https://cointelegraph.com/news/gold-bug-schiff-calls-bitcoin-fiat-following-fed-comments Perhaps we could launch a crypto powered by Stupid Stuff...

    IT BEGINS !!

    Well, just stick this in here: 'Put simply, how can anyone be buying growth stocks and ignoring gold in this world?' https://www.dollarcollapse.com/one-crisis-manageable-five-not/ I've been reading John Rubino for years, guys. He gets published on the libertarian/contrarian 'tin-foil hat'...

    Is DOGE good for something?

    I also have been watching, to see if Doge's doldrums are just pre-spike or whether it really has lost its mojo. https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/dogecoin/markets/ -- it's a wallopin' suite of exchanges (though often low volume).

    IT BEGINS !!

    Did someone mention Krazee Krazee? 'The new package takes Japan’s total spending to combat the virus fallout to 234 trillion yen ($2.18 trillion) . . . ' https://www.nytimes.com/reuters/2020/05/27/world/asia/27reuters-health-coronavirus-japan-stimulus.html There's just no doubt, campers, that...

    IT BEGINS !!

    I like Silver 260's call: 'I expect BTC to keep grinding upwards, but parabolic?, not IMHO.' And welcome, mongrelmaple And just to put my head on the block: we are creeping from all-past-influences-that-drove-crypto-adoption to Global-Krazee-Krazee-mainly-drives-adoption.

    Bitcoins whales and dormant wallets

    'I recently bought my first share of bitcoin. Its divisible so I only spent $85 usd haha. I'm not a big risk taker like that. I got something like 0.009210201 of a bitcoin. Plan is just to sell for a few bucks of profit or whatever, really no plans. Or maybe I'll hodl for awhile I don't know...

    $5000 gold a bad thing

    'gold price reaching $50,000 per ounce' About 15 years ago, during a years-long discussion of Global System in Slow-Motion Collapse, I was charged by a friend to make a concrete prediction. The one thing I'd put my head on the block for was: prices will fluctuate krazee krazee. Since then, oil...

    IT BEGINS !!

    Sigh 'Schmuck trades' is right. I t h i n k I see in bullion enthusiasts a soft of 'big picture' maturity. But there's no arguing the point: cryptos have become Bliss-ninny Central. Wasn't like that at all in the beginning.

    IT BEGINS !!

    'This halving is the biggest schmuck trade in BTC I've seen since 2009' Would you do an AMA for us? I been seven days a week since May, 2013. And my Tech Guy was mining in 2011. But 2009 makes you an actual pioneer. And this is me: $10K is not cheap. ($4,600 in March was.) But think back to...

    What's the next biggest crypto?

    'I dont get why you would want to do POS or POW if the reward is 0 @inmizu . Am I missing something?' Perfectly reasonable query! The miners get transaction fees (which at present wouldn't cover your 'leccy cost . . . ). And ya really gotta have a lot of coin to make any money at staking (for...

    What's the next biggest crypto?

    Call me a cynic, but I'd class Qoin as the exact opposite of a crypto! https://qoin.world/ It's a JP Morgan, Microsoft, Amazon product. It's ' . . . a regulated non cash payments product approved as Authorised Representative number 1279598 of Australian Financial Services Licence (AFSL) number...

    When is a lowball offer insulting?

    I met two U.S. backpackers in central Java just when the first ever Lonely Planet guide was in vogue. That book kept the innocent on the straight and (more expensive) narrow. So I was a wondrous creature to them: wandering about in a sarong and sandals, learning Bahasa straight out of a...
