Binance is cracking down on KYC. After 10-19 all existing users who haven't gone through it will have accounts shifted to withdraw only.

It's hard to keep my ego in check when I portray the future accurately so often.

Pop quiz: what does DINO mean and what coins are not DINO?

Anyone who has been following crypto already knew this was coming. That why you buy the large caps like btc, eth, sol as your main holding.

I love a good admin errors pop quiz!

My attempts to Google reveal a token called DinoSwap, which I'm guessing is not the right answer. Is DINO an acronym?

IIRC you have always advocated for around an 80/20 split between BTC and ETH right? Stay away from the other crap coins correct?

Shifted my crypto holding to just that so I am ready to go to the moon with Elon.

I had been, but at this point with eth's change to pos, among recognition of its heavy use of AWS and others systems for resilience displays DINO qualities as well...

Combined with bitcoins ability to make smart contracts effectively via layer 2 protocols seems to steal most of the use cases from eth/etc/et cetera

Good economic lecture by Krugman and his thoughts on Bitcoin 2 years ago. Fundamentally not much has changed except Bitcoin price. Some of the problems he raises are being worked as he alluded to. A brief history of money and mediums of value exchange followed by arguments that crypto might actually be a step backwards. Discusses game theory, trust has been built on "repeated games." He suggests that crypto doesn't fix hyper inflation, because it is a result of societal collapse and crypto won't move food into the stores.

Ethereum ability to run a node on AWS does not make it centerzialied. I am all for holding BTC, but you can't just ignore the growth of DEFI and NFT on Ethereum and other smart contract platform.

Ooof. Hard to take this seriously. Krugman is a clown.

He could be right but it would be despite himself.

I can ignore if it can't work without a centralized entity that could rug pull the system everything is built on.

Why is AWS used?

"Good economic" and "Krugman" don't belong together. Either the guy isn't good or is he is corrupt. You don't get that much wrong and become that partisan as an economist without one or the other.

If all the AWS nodes went away, the ethereum network would still operate though, right? In my mind being able to operate a node in many ways actually helps decentralization. What am I missing?

60% of eth nodes run in the cloud.

Dated article but still relevant.

https://thenextweb.com/news/ethereum-nodes-cloud-services-amazon-web-services-blockchain-hosted-decentralization

Now, why does this happen? Why Is a node hosted on someone else's computer instead of something similar to bitcoin nodes?

HINT: it has to do with the block size warz

I don't own any ETH but I didn't realize it was mostly running on corporate infrastructure. That would keep me from supporting it solely because of that. It's completely vulnerable to all sorts of bad actors and actions at that point.

And especially now that you have big tech pretty much in league with one side of the political aisle as a defacto surrogate all the more reason to move away from that. That defeats the whole purpose of this entire movement.

Im going to end up being a 100% BTC Admin Errors convert by the end of this. I can feel it. Lol.

My rebuttal is that I have chosen to never listen to Paul krugman for the rest of my life about a decade ago when he was arguing against Ron Paul's stances. He was a fraud then and is still a fraud and deserves zero percent of my time.

Why don't you lay out the bullet points?

Some of the problems he raises are being worked as he alluded to. A brief history of money and mediums of value exchange followed by arguments that crypto might actually be a step backwards. crypto, yes. Bitcoin, absurdly not.
Discusses game theory, trust has been built on "repeated games." no idea what this is referencing, game theory isn't hard to understand and I encourage your own exploration
He suggests that crypto doesn't fix hyper inflation, because it is a result of societal collapse and crypto won't move food into the stores. I disagree, hyperinflation regardless of what entities try changing the definition to fit, is caused by money printing, money printing is a symptom of a bad system. Bitcoin's Unique system removes the ability to "hyperinflate." The next hyperinflation event will instead be a Hyperbitcoinization event.


This is possibly when I realized that he was useless as a reference [2013]

Are folks beginning to think/see what I have believed??

ETH will lose lots of market share especially to ecosystems like Cardano for all the right reasons.

Cardano is vaporware, as is solana, as are the majority of "defi" [read as: DINO] projects.

Your statement is based on hopeium, not effective coding.

I think his biggest point is that if people lose faith in Bitcoin then there is nothing stopping it from going to $0 because it isn't tethered to anything like the USD.

He also says it's going back in time and moving away from the frictionless monetary exchanging system we have today.

I highly encourage you to delve into the book, the bitcoin standard, by saifedean ammouns so you can hear the history of money from someone who ain't Paul krugman.

This book discusses each iteration of money and how it allowed the next advancement of humanity and the innovation that Fiat money created, it is an innovation dont get me wrong there's just a better product now and we are transitioning off the fax into the internet age of money.
