    There's nothing like a fine piece of art

    In the US, Millionaires(By law) get special privileges of investing in stocks or tokens at a 50% discount even before they go public. This "laws" were supposed to protect us but in reality, only benefit the rich and increase the inequality. May crypto be the answer to this unfair situation?

    Research: ETFs Could Lead Bitcoin Price to $35,000 and It Isn’t Far Away

    In 2018 the Ad-tech industry is set to be worth $266 billion. This incredible growth happened thanks to the exploitation of user data by few powerful tech giants. A blockchain based project is trying to embrace users as equal partners in the advertising ecosystem by paying them for their data.

    This Market is Amazing

    Posted: 24 Jun 2018 09:30 AM PDT

    Every one trying to find reason for the bear market. Let me tell you. There is no reason at all. None, no conspiracy no whatever. Go to CMC, make a 6 month clip of the total marketcap. This market has been in a bullrun since the middle of 2015.

    This 6month time frame is the only time in the last 3 YEARS that crypto hasnt beaten the stock market or any other type of investment asset.

    The year is 2018. Cryptocurrency has innovated so fast in such a short period of time. If you sell goodluck to you. If you hold goodluck to you. If you trade goodluck to you.

    What coins were on coinbase in 2015? Lol

    Was BITMAIN a multi-BILLION dollar company in 2015? Lol

    Was Binance making hundreds of millions in profit in 2015? Lol

    This is where shit gets innovative and creative because everyone is in panic over price.

    The nerds, geeks, pussies, (smartest people in the world) stay calm and just do their job like the fucking bosses that they are. These people arent emotional over anything money wise.

    The only people bitching over price are greedy emotional pussies.

    Get over the market. It's amazing.

    A lesson learned.

    Posted: 24 Jun 2018 07:16 PM PDT

    I had a flashback from my childhood today, after reading some finance articles about the company RedHat. (It's taken a little dip lately).

    My parents invested in stocks toward the height of the dot com bubble. I remember being 11 or 12 years old and watching my mom stare at the old dell desktop computer, in despair day after day after day after day.

    They lost about $100,000 in a relatively short period of time, and gave up on investing in stocks. Redhat was one of the stocks they had gotten into, right after it IPO'ed. It went from $40 to $136 very quickly and then plummeted into the $3-10 dollar range where it stayed for a few years. Last Friday it was trading for $146.00.

    Imagine. Had my parents not gone all in at the peak of the dot com bubble, when everyone else was jumping on board, and just dollar cost averaged over 15 years they would have made 50x their money.

    This is a lesson to all you crypto investors, and I also had to learn the hard way. If you believe in a technology, don't go all in when it's up. Just dollar cost average weekly. I have been posting some despair posts lately because I gained and lost more unrealized profit than money that I've ever seen in my life over the past 365 days, but crypto is still in it's infancy. If you believe in it, just put a little bit out of your paycheck into your few favorite cryptos weekly and see what happens. I know I still will be.

    I have free power, should I mine?

    Posted: 24 Jun 2018 08:23 PM PDT

    So my father is under contract with some solar company which enables him to pay some flat rate regardless of how much electricity he uses, in exchange for allowing them to put solar panels on his property.

    Since the electricity is essentially free for me, would it be worth running some mining rigs on his property? How much profit are we talking here? If I drop $10k on mining rigs what would be a reasonable estimation for making positive return on investment?

    Let's assume this is legal and does not breach contract.

    I'm a Vechain HODLer, let's talk about Vechain's issues

    Posted: 24 Jun 2018 12:19 PM PDT

    So, I know a lot of people on this sub hate Vechain with a burning passion. I understand why, as a vocal minority of the Vechain community can be a bit toxic and close-minded. That said, I would really like to hear some of the real arguments against Vechain that don't have to do with the community. VEN is my biggest bag, and it's hard to find any truly objective discussion about problems that have arisen or may arise. This leads me (and the majority of the Vechain community) to believe that there are no problems. I'm an investor myself, and largely ignorant on the more technical aspects of crypto, so I this would be a good way to reach out to those more savvy than myself. :)

    Edit: Changed "a good chunk of the Vechain community" to "a vocal minority of the Vechain community" after this misrepresentation was pointed out to me.

    BTC hashing power is now more than 43 million TH/s, 3x higher compared to the levels at the start of 2018. Mining almost doubled its pace lately, each transaction is much more expensive (mining costs are around $5700-5800 at 8 cents kwh).

    Hodlers

    Posted: 24 Jun 2018 04:09 PM PDT

    I've noticed an major increase in people who are against hodl- they are all wrong, and I have no idea who has convinced them that they are right.

    The hodlers are the last line of defense against the bears by taking a coin out of circulation. A coin with more hodlers would have a higher minimum value than a coin which has more liquidity.

    To attack the holders (especially of bitcoin) is to attack the whole cryptosphere.

    Speak out against people saying hodling is bad.
