Just opened a Coinbase Pro account and (finally) getting into crypto. The plan for now is to scale into BTC and ETH.

But, what's the deal with Tether (USDT)? From Googling it sounds like a "safe" or "stable" investment vehicle. Thoughts?

The certainty on here with some of these claims is simply unwarranted. Everyone on here needs to take any statement on here as opinion. No one on here can predict the future or know jack sh^t about what any of this will do.

I realize I'm stating the obvious but I feel like people are judging crypto as this can't miss investment opportunity that will never decrease in value.

Agreed. ADA is becoming its own thing and it's hard to imagine a world in 3-5 years where the Cardano platform isn't solving major societal, economic and logistical problems around the globe.



I've been saying this since Jan and got laughed at but nice others see it now.
People have been saying that since 4 years ago and still no working product


That is ignorance by a factor of 100 my friend.
You tie Cardano's utility and relevance too much to smart contracts and not enough the the technology that will enable it come Aug. Additionally, the vision of Cardano coupled with its functionality and flexibility is worth half of gold's market cap.
This is utterly delusional. I hope people aren't buying this BS because they'll be stuck bagholding for another 4 years just like the people saying the same thing in 2017.



You are myopic and like to base arguments on what you believe and not on what someone else opines. I didn't put a time frame on my prediction. Amazon began selling books. After hearing Bezos plan for the future of the company you probably would have thought he was delusional.

Believe whatever you wish as it is no concern of mine. I made my plays and stand firm.

Good luck on yours.


I will no longer discuss what I believe, what I've read, nor coins I like, due to dissenters not liking my thoughts, opinions, and approach. I make decisions for myself with my money. I will reap the rewards or look back with regret.

Chainlink is far more important than Cardano. In fact I would say it's the most important cryptocurrency, period. The concept of smart contracts where you can be absolutely sure you will get your money and have it executed at exactly the right time is unheard of in the world. Chainlink will not only allow for this but it will link almost everything.

It's an incredibly ambitious project but it's utility is utterly unmatched. There is a reason why people are saying it will be worth $1000 by 2025 at least.


Not so much my friend.

I like LINK but C3 is the oracle of the Cardano ecosystem and it will have as much if not more utility due to the flexibility of Cardano.

I've said it before amd I'm saying it again...Cardano will be like the internet or AWS on blockchain.


When you say C3 is that Charli3?

If so, is uniswap the only good way to buy it, and can it be stored on a ledger nano?


Yes, Charli3...I use Uniswap and can't speak of other exchanges for it.

Anyone seen this s***show going on with Crypto.com? I know about it because I'm involved. I decided to throw some money into Shiba this morning just for the hell of it. As I tried to complete the purchase, I received an error message that the transaction timed out. I tried multiple times and it turns out the transactions I attempted went through but the coins didn't show up. They acknowledged the error on Twitter and thought they had solved it but apparently there's a second issue that they were unaware of with the same problem. And the people that did receive their coins didn't get them at the price they purchased them at. Bunch of people like myself with multiple debits to their bank account with no coins. Only way I'll be satisfied is if I receive the coins at the price I paid. If not, I'm missing out on some decent profits and coin count since the price has gone up.
This happened to me as well. However, they immediately refunded the first charge and applied the second one correctly. I have my SHIBA as well. So it should all balance out soon.

Most of the regular posters on this thread are "hot take guys". The entire alt space is one big revolving door of hot takes for fks sake.

The thing about pitching hot takes is that there usually a greater emotion factor in the discussions and it's much easier for them to devolve. Don't engage if you can't handle someone ****ting on your opinion.

No one has a crystal ball on any of these despite whatever impassioned pitch they're spitting. Enter at your own risk. I've said it at least 5 times on this thread, YouBet made the comment recently too.

Aggressive drive by BTC purists are the worst. They are all over social media too.

I own BTC. I hope it sky rockets. I own ETH, ADA, LINK and AAVE. I hope they produce too.

I don't understand the aggressive behavior on here or elsewhere.
TxAG#2011
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I only wish somebody was this aggressive back in 2017 when I actually believed these coins I was buying were revolutionary tech. Instead there was a guy here pumping this up and then he completely disappeared when the fall came.

I watched about 250k of paper gains disappear in the span of 2 months. I am calling out this delusional behavior I once believed in when I see it because there are others falling for the exact same **** I did.

A lot of people aren't even researching what they're buying outside of complete shill behavior. Have these people buying Cardano even bothered to look at the chart?

https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/cardano/

It went from $1.11 to $0.15 in the span of two months. -85% in two months. And then -98% a year later. Almost every other chart in crypto looks the exact same. And it will eventually look the exact same again. You really think these institutions pumping this up aren't going to dump all this when the top happens?

Here's the last thing I'll say on this topic that took me a while to figure out. I love crypto, but 98% of this crap is a complete vapor-ware pump and dump scheme. Sorry if that hurts peoples feelings but it's the truth and I really hope it saves at least one person here the life changing money I had at one point.

FYI for those that missed the Charles H update.

When Cardano implements Hydra it will solve scalability in a vastly superior manner.

ETH 2.0 which is 2 years away will be able to perform 100k transactions a second...Hydra will allow Cardano to perform 1-2 million per second and could be put into place on the test net this year.

LatinAggie is not pumping anything he is just discussing something he is passionate about. This isnt reddit no one is saying throw your life savings in now, to the moon, but if someone believes in something why cant we discuss it

Precisely correct, thank you.
I discuss what I've read, seen, believe, and do, just to inform. I am not perfect but I like sharing information I believe to be relevant and helpful.

I have been fortunate enough to not have lost money on any coins. I only buy what I believe in and that is something I can accept any outcome with. Research into the teams , the technology, and their vision typically is the best jumping off point for me. I spend 2 hours a day during the week and twice that on the weekend watching and reading interviews with team members and project founders. I watch YouTube channels for latest news and updates on what I've already read or believe should be reading.

I don't day trade crypto so charts don't mean much to me. The fundamentals with a little instinct has served me well.


I am happy with my bags of BTC, ADA, ONE, VET, ENJIN, MANA, C3, and Cardsstarter.

Still considering others like Bondly, Occam, and WMT but believe it is best to not spread my limited funds too widely. Bigger bags of a few is better than smaller bags of a lot to me for my 2024 goals.

I just shifted more eth to ada. Staking on yoroi. Yolo.

This isn't 2017. Unless the EIB issuing hundreds of millions of dollars in bonds on the ETH is a complete scam to pump and dump alt coins, the utility is here. Right now.

ETH with all its imperfections is up 300%+ due to the implications of real utility presently being deployed.

As I said this morning, once ADA and it's utility are recognized mainstream, it's going to soar.

Just my opinion of course.

I didn't realizing depositing more ada in yoroi auto puts the add in the pool you selected previous. Fine by me but surprised it was seamless.

Yep, you can designate part to other stake pools but I'm happy with it going directly to same one...until it reaches saturation. Earning about 7 ADA an epoc.

Update: Crypto.com finally updated my wallet with the missing transaction. Not that I expect anyone to care. Just didn't want to unfairly influence anyone still contemplating sticking their toe in the water on this stuff. Still not thrilled about the experience with the initial problem with the transaction or being unable to communicate via chat with them but at least they made it right.

I've had issues with crypto.com recently too. Opened my app over the weekend and all my crypto was gone.
