WE ARE GOING TO THE MOOOON. When jews support something, get on board. You know you are in it for the moniesss.

 

[shameful existence]

At least it wasn't centralized!!!!
No worries. This is the phase where everyone gets depressed and bored and eventually forgets all about internet money. Just make sure you have your wallets, passwords and seeds where you'll find them in a year or two and go do something else for a bit.

Is it possible to make money OFF Jews* and not the other way round?

*Not including lampshade sales.

I wonder if it's going under 1500. I'm itching to acoomulate mawre, but if it crashes further immediately after, I'm going to be pissed. ETH is the only crypto I never managed to time correctly. Edit : Yep, we got under 1500. Fuck it. I'll slowly go in again, in increments of 0.125.

I've started staking my Ether on coinbases ETH 2 staking pool. Yeah, it means I can't touch it now for the foreseeable future but I was not planning to anyway. This way I get a free conversion ahead of time. And it's also nice to see my money making money. That APR is going to add up to a nice chunk of change over the next 2 years, provided things go as planned.

I'm legitimately thinking about getting into the ETH 2.0 staking game for economic reasons. It's much easier than building a mining rig and having to pay for a non-affordable power bill that negates all your gains right?

Yes, you need is 32 ETH to run a full validator, but it needs to be up 24/7, and prob needs its own rig. https://www.argent.xyz/blog/eth-2-validator-setup/
Otherwise, you can join a pool. This means you don't have to setup anything, but you run the risk of them being set up improperly and getting slashing penalties, you pay a fee on rewards, and there could be protocol issues. You can stake on exchanges and get a smaller reward, but its far easier. Not your keys, not your coins though.

I'm being super normie and sitting in Coinbases staking pool atm. Probably not earning as much as I would elsewhere but I also don't expect to wake-up one morning and find all my Ether has been siphoned off to Russia either.

Amazon is looking to add Ethereum as a payment method. (Also Bitcoin and Cardano)

apparently just a rumor based on a job listing amazon posted that wanted a "cryptocurrency and blockchain expert"

 

[Realistic]

yeah I put $35 into Ethereum 2.0 thanks to Kraken (I don't have many options), either I'll be one rich motherfucker or I'll be sobbing over the money that I lost.

Any of you guys holding your eth and other cryptos on Celsisus?

I managed to get an easy $70 in DAI with their old spring sign up offer, and I've been slowly Dollar cost averaging my way to 1 eth. Their bank transfers if you're US based have the lowest transactions fee I've seen asides from binance.

What are you doing on Celsius that uses bank transfers? I thought you just send tokens there, get interest, then send it back to a wallet or exchange with a fiat offramp?

Test deployment for the London Hard Fork failed. Ethereun foundation claims they've patched the flaw.

London Update is live and we are poomping!

Tried staking on Kraken and they charge a deposit fee (lol) and make you wait up to 20 days before earning interest aka "bonding period" bullshit.

If you deposited 1 ETH, it will take you about 8 weeks at 5% APR just to break even from the deposit fee plus bonding wait time.

Why don't you try using ANKR instead? Staking pools are ostensibly what the protocol is for.

This green candle is fixing my erectile dysfunction. What do you plan, kiwis. Selling then buying the incoming bottom, or holding until we hit 10K ?

I am holding, but I can't even sell yet because of tax reasons.
That said , I will probably hold ETH for years, I could even see that the flippening happens someday.
