MISC Crypto Crew (MCC) Vol: XII: Retirement plans and exit scams

[sakmsb]

LEND did an 8x in Q2 :O

And so many other top 100 coins are like 3 to 5x up in the last 3 to 4 months.

I had this vivid dream last night that BTC dropped to $30.00 and it turned into a nightmare because I could not get into my Gemini account to buy buy buy. It was like one of those dreams you used to have in school where you couldn't remember your locker combination on the first day.

I woke up this morning and checked pricing right away.

[lowstrife]

They are on and off. A couple retailers had to stop the last bull run because the volatility and fees+speed were just too much.

I'm pretty sure Newegg is one of the few that's been consistently supporting it. They launched it in Fall of 2014 with a $150 discount on orders above $500.

I am not 100% clear if they have ever actually disabled it. It may have been the case temporarily during the bull run when fees were $30, $50. But I'm not completely sure.

[StevieSparkZ]

BAT has always stood it's ground in volatile swings. Look at everything else right now and look at BAT.

If I recall correctly, BAT has been solid since it's release, which is over 3 years now.

Impressive imo

Its a slow gainer, but its starting to look more and more like a safe bet. Advertisers are starting to pull out of ******** and twitter en masse, and Brave looks like they are very close to being able to capitalize on this. If they just keep doing what they are doing then I think BAT could run very very hard at some point.

[SleeveStretchin]

Digitalbits seems like a nice play.

[Gringo12]

Portfolio moving up by 5 figs, been a while since I've seen that lol

[StevieSparkZ]

Digitalbits seems like a nice play.

Digibyte for the upcoming Coinbase add (buy rumor sell news)
Cardano for the upcoming upgrade

[Parkerscott]

Looks like the proposal went through on compound and now BAT is down to 13% APY. This might get milked for a while.

[W1LLW]

Sitting in a stable coin at the moment while the market retraces a bit. Will probably stay here till btc retraces to 8700

So if it's 33% to borrow and only 13% to supply does that mean Compound is getting 20% of the action for themselves? What determines the borrow rate?

I want to say theres something about needing more collateral that goes to the reserve system thats supposed to prevent a collapse. Went from 10% to 60%. So now theres like 2m BAT being locked up on compound each day. Im not sure if compound is getting a cut, but I think that is the point of the governance token. People want to vote to give themselves fees at a later date. For right now though im earning interest at basically 51% apy. Not sure how much longer I can draw it out. The keep bringing up proposals to change the economics of the platform to make it more fair for other assets so we will see. Until then im going to keep printing money.

Sup?

[StevieSparkZ]

The "Cardano Virtual Summit 2020: Shelley Edition" is tomorrow.

Hope you've all loaded up!

Some other ones that I'm feelin' within the week to a month are:

- Digibyte (DGB)
- Kyber Network Coin (KNC)

[Jerma]

ask me in 2 months *******

go on....

[Serenadium]

go on....

Pretty good.

I had a kyber stack since ICO (2.5 years ago), its now about $1.67 up from $0.17 earlier this year. ICO price was ~$0.5 so nothing to bang on about.

Bought 3 biz ****coins Statera, Flama and Ampleforth. Statera was a 15x'er for me, just'd on Flama (65% loss) and Ampleforth 3x in 2 days.

All in all, pretty good and lucked out. I hold a rather large stack of ETH which has crabbed but not sure if this counts as a "****coin".

Sup?

Nobody knows who you are except for the OGs. Sup?

Looks like the BAT Compound train has come to a close. Down to .63% supply rate. Was fun while it lasted. Thanks ParkerScott for the info on this. Made a few sheckles so was worth it.

It was definitely good while it lasted. Its a shame they kept rushing out updates and now hundreds of millions of dollars of BAT has fled the platform. The value of COMP is probably just going to keep tanking and the platform wont even be worth using in a few weeks. Rates are too low and gas fees are too high.

KNC standing out. When I bought 10+ speculative chitcoins, I had the expectation most of them would collapse to zero. Just need 1 to make it.

Still think it's most likely to be OMG though. BAT, perhaps.

[Raylan]

VeChain is the truth (I'm still 35% down on it tho lol)

I'm more or less out the chitcoin game. especially now that BTC/ETH have crashed, corrected, and positioned for a breakout with literally dozens of forbes/bloomberg/etc articles speaking to 2020 as being the breakout for Bitcoin.

I only bothered with chitcoins back in the day because i missed the 3k BTC spike to 10k, so chitcoins were the only way to see similar gains. BTC and ETH aren't looking exciting now, which means this is the perfect time to accumulate. Aside from those two i'm only considering legit coin projects: BAT, LINK, XRP

[MaxMaximorum]

ETH will be a great buy when Tether overtakes ETH market cap wise and then this whole pump and dump scam with Tether implodes finally. You can tell at this point that it is taking a bigger and bigger Tether pump to move the market at all. People are ready to start dumping as soon as you get any kind of pump.

Yea I know I know, Tether isn't correlated with bitcoin price moves, lol. I mean you have to be a special kind of stupid/delusional to believe that.

I plan on building a nice 50/50 ETH/BTC portfolio when the **** hits the fan. I need fire sale prices though.

Tether pumps will become more and more absurd that they will become less and less believable going forward.

[The Nothing]

There's still some promising chitcoins. Cardano and OMG Network. Cardano will be launching proof of stake at the end of the month. OMG still to come but by knocking down ethereum transactions to 1/3 the cost could see a lot of onboarding onto the network. Let's just hope that the staking mechanism doesn't get diluted since it's no longer fully decentralized. Still waiting on their proof of guarantee model to be published.

any travala.com users here yet? do yourselves a favor and get some AVA

They are going mainstream. just integrated with expedia as they look to re-enter the crypto space. Binance has also acquired 25% ownership of the company. AVA token will be hitting binance in short order with the full weight of cz behind them.

I just threw a hundred bucks at it after reading your post in case it makes it big

[W1LLW]

woke up to a nice rebound across the board this morning... neat. chit, even xrp is up. wonder whats in store this month.

it's a good idea. they are playing with the big boys. certainly helps that the CEO is a former executive at booking dot com
im not sure if we have any binance hype traders here, but if there are this is one to jump on since binance now owns 25% and binance platform is the backbone.

the expedia announcement shocked us all though. that might be one of the biggest that i have seen and i have seen a lot in my two years of investing in this company. search travala on twitter, sht is nuts

aside from that check out the site. beyond crypto or anything else, it's usually cheaper to book and the UI is better than other sites. im actually on vacation right now and booked via travala. though i didnt use AVA to book because im hodling that sht hard. credit card for now.

If I didn't know any better, I'd say XRP was a stable coin.....

.......till this morning!
