Polkadot already years ahead of Eth's endless upgrade till 2025.

Today, I did something dangerous.

I accessed the ETHW wallet on metamask.

Did I just give up my keys without knowing shit about what I did?

IMO,
Because the appeal of crypto’s promise to reinvent money has reached its limit in a very niche audience.
TBH, no good reason to buy cryto anymore.
The true purpose cryto was created to served as digital currency,alternative form of payment. But now it become fun investment or gambling with no fixed value, no useful social purpose. Can u use crypto to buy things in supermarkets or Internet right now? U cant. Even tesla backtracked on accepting bitcoin as form of payment. Its so volatile. The way cryto work, the new investors paying out early investors because no actual cash flows are being produced. Sound familiar? Ponzi scheme.
Will Bitcoin ever rise again to its previous heights? Well i think so but be careful as this next rally might be major “bull trap” rather than a “bull run".

Diversified ur investment portfolio my friends, dont go all out on crypto. Cheers

If Bitcoin or Ethereum were real ponzis, they would have died long ago.

- it is an upgrade/improvement of traditional ponzi scheme. Scams are constantly evolving and becoming more and more sophisticated. Decentralized finance and blockchain are real, new technologies and has values and it will transform banking in the future but crypto tokens they are decentralized Ponzi schemes. Buying bitcoin is not an investment.  Anyone can create a cryptocurrency. The key to understanding the “real” value of Crypto is that it is a technology to transfer money. The real value of cryptocurrency is not its ability to make you rich, but in its ability to let you trade with other people securely, remotely, privately, anywhere in the world with certainty that everybody will get the result they want and nobody will have their “things” stolen.

in Argentina and Venezuela, Bitcoin and crypto is more preferred compared to their local currencies

- the adoption of cryptocurrencies in Argentina and venezuela is on the rise due to their country’s macroeconomic context. Economic downturn, with high inflation, a deflating currency and a shortage of US dollars to invest in. but people who are using crypto there are from the upper middle classes and the truth is there had still not been widespread adoption of cryptocurrency because many people in the country don't have the technical literacy needed to really use it

People don't accept gold for normal day transactions also. You first sell your gold into MYR. Similarly, I would convert the Bitcoin into local MYR first.

Gold is an asset which can never go to zero. Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency which is not backed by any asset.It has ZERO intrinsic value. The value of bitcoin can easily fluctuate south. A cryptocurrency’s value can change constantly and dramatically. There is always the possibility (remember TERRA LUNA) that a crypto currency’s value could fall to zero due to laws, regulation or corrupt management, whereas physical gold holds an intrinsic value.

Just my opinion. no hate. cheers mate

This time Bitcoin ETF really coming

Luno said it had on March 8, 2021 told Yew it had locked his Luno account for security purposes, adding that it had also on March 9, 2021 responded further to Yew by saying that the latter’s Luno wallet was accessed through his own email and password and no unusual sign-ins were detected; and that all the transactions were done through the Luno website and app from Yew’s mobile phone and each transaction was authorised through a text message sent to his mobile number.

I'm actually amazed most of you haven't got your eyes open on chainlink yet, even with all the news crumbs being thrown around. This actually has the potential to surpass even btc in terms of marketcap.

Is it possible for someone to create a fake explorer? Found a project which is guaranteed a scam because the infos don’t add up but curious to know what happens if click Add to Metamask.

Can you explain more what you mean

@Andrew Lim ah thanks for the info, I know not to press but wondering if there’s something like a wallet sandbox then can see what it does to the wallet to see how it works.

Nope.

Its a shit year for eth dude. Look at eth price in satoshi terms. Went from 0.07 btc to 0.05 btc. The USD price is misleading because of btc price rising

How BTC has a shit year? It literally went up this year 😂

SOL had a better year than BTC no doubt.

But ETH do not have a good year. It’s very misleading looking at USD price.

But 2024 should be a recovery year for ETH.

Most people would not know about this and only see USD pricing but Altcoin will always tied to BTC prices. Whenever BTC price rises, the altcoin price dip. Whenever BYC price dip, the altcoin price dip as well.

To measure the true strength of altcoin, it must be valued in satoshi terms. There’s a reason why there’s BTC/altcoin pair market.

Say for ETH, 0.07 BTC in early 2023 and now 0.05 BTC in end of 2023 but USD price increase. It only shows that ETH is lagging behind Bitcoin and if u will earn more if hold BTC in early 2023 than ETH. But most people SYOK when they saw their USD price goes up but not knowing that they actually down in investment in satoshi terms.

You might want to watch Benjamin Cowen in this. He explained really well on why altcoin shouldn’t based on USD price but satoshi pricing.

XRP take only 2 weeks to reach ATH. Crazy. Accumulate 3 years, pump 2 weeks settle.

My bad. My pc tradingview chart only until May 2018.
