Didn't realize this was a thing...

Anyone looked into it or own it?

Some social networking platforms are in the process of implementing their own crypto to accomplish the same thing Minds is proposing, but it seems like Minds is both a crypto AND a social networking platform? Kind of confusing?

Mining for these should be like hosting the service. But it doesn't sound like that for minds.

Hoping someone knows about it so I don't have to spend hours researching

Continuing to HODL, I think my investment has disappeared into its own belly button like Stimpy did that one time.

Yeah, that was always a wildly optimistic prediction. I personally didn't predict it would go quite that high, but honestly I wouldn't have been too surprised if it did.

It's been an unbelievably good year for crypto as a whole. If you went in on ethereum at the beginning of this year, you are up almost 600%. If you went in on Matic at the beginning of the year, you are up over 16,000%. Even old Bitcoin is up 100% on the year.

Numbers aside, this year has seen cryptocurrency truly enter the mainstream consciousness. We've seen massive institutional adoption of ETH and we've even seen a country adopt Bitcoin as legal tender. It's been a great fucking year, and I hope it continues next year.

I would go so far as to say that it's actually been such a good year it's been harder to lose money in crypto than to make it. I know because I'm a case study. I've been tracking since I started trying to "play around and learn" about the market (around Feb of this year to present). Things I've done...
  • Didn't have a profit taking strategy at all, so the May/June correction wrecked me
  • Barely sold off anything on the recovery from that.
  • Stopped having time to hunt for "alt gems", just stuck money in some "basics"
And still I am at 24% up for the year on my "starter trying to learn" game of Crypto.

1 hour investment for a Bachelors degree in our current monetary system. Highly recommend watching this as I don't think many people understand how fiat actually works.



Edit added spoilered video. Another good one by the same guy w/ Michael Saylor

I skipped through it...

No thx.

George gammon has a bunch of white board videos regarding fiat, QE, printing, TGA, commercial bank lending, Fed/DoT, etc...

What I heard skipping through was just pimping imo...

Is there anything in there, specifically, of value?

I've heard of Gammon but not listened to much of him. I'll check it out, thanks.

To an expert like you? Obviously not.

Wow, I might have to revise all those numbers in that post I made just this morning, based on the current run.

Paperhanded my ETHE for a rather modest profit compared to what I was hoping for. Took a guess and set my sell limit for the daily high to the cent and it fired. Sure hope it doesn't go nuts over the weekend.

Every point I stopped either of those videos to listen, it was the same thing from any BTC maximalist media.

Not exactly a brain searing breakdown of the American dollar.

Shit man, I at least skimmed it. Then asked for a high light.

Gammon I like because he presents things in a retard friendly way. Once you start getting into the Treasury General Acct / Fed / Banks / Treasury, its fairly counter intuitive and deep in the weeds.

Merry Christmas faggot.
