Ethereum 2.0’s first upgrade will happen this month — a step closer to denting the competitive advantage of ‘Ethereum Killers’

The Altair hard fork, the first upgrade for Ethereum 2.0, is slated for October 27.It is the first step towards bringing the proof-of-stake (PoS) to the main

www.businessinsider.in

Article brings up a good point. How many PoS blockchains do we really need? Is there gonna be enough room for everybody?

This is one reason why I don’t see the hype with Cardano. Once ETH makes the transition, what will the selling point be for all of these other blockchains?

true @stick. I’m keeping my eyes peeled for the de gods market. mint was pretty bad, but if some paper handed a$& lists low I’m sniping

I was able to mint one and it was easy since the discord crashed badly. As of now most of the ones listed on solesea are fake so be careful

Why sign up for t mobile when Verizon has the best coverage in the US?

Why give better interest when you can just cry about regulation.

 

[stuntman mike]

why use any other DEX when sifchain will rule them all muahahaha!!! notsrs.

or am i?

Don’t sleep on the cb card guys. Easy to manage and get 4% back in xlm and just convert to whatever. I convert it to btc and send it to Celsius to stake. Almost 200 bucks in free btc so far.

Right, so why use Cardano?

these stacked toadz went from 2.2 to 3.4 eth today. ****ed up on that one.

I’m curious to see what happens with Sol. That’s 1/3 my portfolio at this point and still dca’ing.

even if it hits 500 in a few years I’ll be stoked af.

Should be 5-10% of ETH’s total market cap. Solana has major potential to be the chain for retail/small money and gaming. I’m keeping mine staked for the next few years unless we see a $250B market cap this year in which case I’ll cut half

 

[mplsdunk]

Where you staking? Solflare?

 

[johnnyredstorm]

Phantom. 8-10% apy depending on the validator.

 

[Air Champa]

Wow...XRP woke up.

Must be good news about the lawsuit.

Regulation for crypto is needed for us to actually go to the moon imo. These crypto exchanges insuring my money for up to 250k like the banks would be nice too. Crazy how we don’t have a customer support team yet. Really shows how far away we are.

 

[stuntman mike]

swapped half my sif rewards last night for JUNO (smart contracts on cosmos) and pooled with ROWAN on sifchain. JUNO is super volatile right now but APY is great. even though it was a small amount, hopefully i’m milking this program as much as i can

Made a very great return staking Miami Coin. Got some STX as rewards, sold it for more MIA coin and staked it. Can't beat 430%!!

 

[mplsdunk]

thanks. Gonna open an account there soon.

as far as regulation idk how I feel about that. I’d prefer it be the Wild West honestly with no government or taxes.

 

[heyson]

johnnyredstorm whats your method of choosing a validator?

They're all built differently so they will specialise in different things.
Listening to Devs speak there are somethings that are better on Solana or Substrate that ETH can't do or is much harder. I'm sure it's the same for Tendermint as well.

Similar reason as to why Bitcoin doesn't have smart contracts. Just wasn't built for it. There are teams looking into it but it's much harder to implement than something made from the ground up.

I’m curious to see what happens with Sol. That’s 1/3 my portfolio at this point and still dca’ing.

I see $500 predictions in the next few months for SOL if we get a run like 2017.

It looks like they only charge when you convert your xlm. I cant see any other fees or am i missing something?

load usdc in your account and select that for what you fund the card with. It’s free to transfer in and doesn’t cost a % when you spend it where all other cryptos do.

to convert your xlm to btc or whatever you want is free of charge which makes it pointless to do any of the lesser rewards.

We on the same wave Stuntman.!
I just added liquidity to that pool as well. Highest APY on the DEX..
I went in pretty heavy though...
$40 worth of ROWAN in 36hrs on SifChain.
Pretty crazy man... This is my first time dipping my toes into LPs... Kicking myself for waiting so long to do so.!

Anybody tried these games and won anything? I'm assuming they're a waste of time and not worth it.

Grabbed two zombiecats. Treasury is bigger than mutantcats and they only 2 more coolcats than they do at a .17 floor

interesting dev team. I think same team behind grape protocol. still minting for 1 sol. would get more if I wasn’t eyeing others

im going to regret only grabbing one of these.
