Another example why imo Cardano will lead the space.

Just let him say what hes gonna say, we all hold bitcoin and increase our BTC bags regularly, let him just pretend he is the only one. Also when people call him out he gets really annoying talking about how he is a martyr and a victim, half of his posts are cringy as **** so just let him talk his *****

I'll defer to the expert, but I strive for 100% cringey posts. Will work harder.

I just don't understand why bitcoin maxi have to bash other projects. It's the most toxic crypto community I have witnessed so far.

Yup.

ADA below $2 looks very tempting. Personally, I don't think they will be the major winners in the smart contract space, but I think they will have a significant market share of the space.

I still like ETH and SOL in this space more than ADA, but I may pick up a little ADA bag if it drops below $2.

Almost wrote a cringey martyr post about painful experiences and how to avoid the traps along the road...

Suffice to say, been in the game for a decade plus. Consuming new material constantly in that time. AND STILL I am learning how shallow my knowledge is on the subject.

It's lonely though. Wish you lot would catch up so we can chat about truly exciting things, like:
"now that bitcoin exists, how do the incentives for businesses change?"
"Now that bitcoin exists, how do politics change?"
"Now that bitcoin exists, how do we prepare our communities for hyperinflation/hyperbitcoinization?"

I just imagined when we got more people in the game we'd begin these discussions in earnest but it's instead devolving into technical anal and hero worship and gambling addiction.

Bah. Humbug.

99.99% of people's main goal in this thread is to make $$$. Yours may not be since you got into bitcoin when the rest of the world was calling it a ****-asset and you have already made huge life changing gains.

Feel free to create a thread on various bitcoin topics that interest you in the appropriate forums.

To anyone listening.

We are still so ****ing early.

People still want to make $$$.

I'll go bleed elsewhere.

I'll just update this post instead of posting more.

Mark railed on #Bitcoin maxis for telling fiat believers to HFSP, but in the next breath he referred to them as “consumers,” implied they don’t care about sound currency, and suggested they buy alt coins to have some fun while staying poor.

And people think this was a debate.

Come back!

Ae, appreciate your take and messaging about Bitcoin. This is a crypto thread and Bitcoin is crypto. I come to this thread mostly for news on Bitcoin not to "make money". As I'm sure ae has mentioned, I agree the bigger picture on crypto is much more important than increasing our amount of USD; freedom with our our resources and a clear measure of value as opposed to inflated Biden bucks. What does it mean to make money on an alt coin if the USD is inflated simultaneously? I ignore most of the talk on alt coins but have no problem with that discussion here also.

On texags: Negative reinforcement > positive reinforcement

My goal posting here has been to create a bastion of aggie/aggie-friendly people who grasp the basic principles [besides number go up] of bitcoin.

My process is obviously flawed, as the top active cryptothread that's yet to be deleted is one about trading.

I do this at great cost to my time, and at no benefit except mostly negative reinforcement, not a single satoshi.

Right now, I could be a minesweeper pointing out where you're gonna get your legs blown off, but apparently instead of dissuading my cohorts on this forum from treading there, they double down that they know best and that minesweeping is boomertech or won't get them where they want to be [the casino] quick enough. YOLO!

At the expense of reduced excruciating time wasting, I'll focus on developing my local economy and bringing people into the fold that aren't voluntarily blinding themselves seeking $$$, but are looking to opt out.

Time is too valuable to continue wasting it on the unwilling, let them beg when they find the end of their path quite deadly.

Tldr: people deserve to find what they seek. Who am I to change their path.

Well, I am here to learn, so any advice given from any viewpoint is appreciated by me.

No one is saying he should leave. He should definitely still post alot of his content is great. I went harsh on him yesterday but I hope he stays around I just personally feel if he doesnt like a project either ignore it or stop constantly putting people down. Have arguments but dont just argue it's a **** coin, it's all **** and your **** for being ***** He has alot of great content just needs to chill with some stuff.

Edit: just wanted to add, when people get pushed back on here why is the first instinct to " leave the thread"?

Guys,
If Admin Errors relinquishes his ceremonial leadership of this thread, I'm probably the second most knowledgeable around here regarding crypto. The rest of you are pretty damn dumb from my experience on here.

Put everything in SHIB and you should be good.

You're welcome.

YouBet

I'm pretty and dumb, or was that pretty dumb, see....

I'm into Shib....again, see.......well, I only have $approx $650 in it but my wallet shows almost $9k...jury still out.

I have others like ADA, Vechain, and Harmony....all **** coins...jury still out

I am not a smart man but I know where some profits and utility are. [Forest Gump voice]

admin,

I own crypto and should have been following this thread but haven't much.

Question, is it worth mining ETH now?

Is so, what type of equipment makes the most sense to do it?

When does BTC go on another run here?

Seems to keep bouncing off of $62k.

I can't imagine pursuing eth mining in the face of eth2.0 transition. Eth miners are about to become persona non grata.

Whether you can profitably do it in the narrowing window of potential is dependent on quite a number of variable that I'm unqualified to speak upon.

---

Bingo.

thanks. Is there a way to do the 2.0 when available or other tokens that are doable?

Yes it's called staking, because they are switching to a highly flawed and unproven method of securing their blockchain that leaves a high level of trust in few hands, called Proof of Stake.

This is far different from proof of Work, which is bitcoin's method of authenticating the blockchain, and backed by the energy consumed to secure the network. Ethereum had a different current proof of work methodology which used graphics cards which are now becoming rather scarce, and therefore pricey.

Enjoy the exploratory journey.

I'd encourage you to spend your limited attention and time on bitcoin mining, rather than ethereum. Far better philosophy and valuable process.

Learning the bitcoin mining process regardless of profitability is an invaluable education. Making it a profitable endeavor depends on your unique circumstances or ability.

I think a Bitcoin thread belongs on The Nerdery and not here. I would like to discuss actual bitcoin topics with other Ags.

Is proof of authority superior to proof of stake?

Proof of stake is more secure as folks have something to lose. It also faster, greener, and less expensive. It is also an efficient method for decentralization as long as specific parameters are set, like pool size to limit validator influence.

not certain what protocol is PoA. But I bet both would need to appeal to authority.

Any idea what video that was?

Lmfao at that first sentence - good god.

Here's a good question: why did BTC go back down to 30k a few months ago after hitting 60k, and what makes this time different in that it won't?

China miners exodus, Elon Tweet, energy usage, legislation FUD.
