Tesla has made more money holding bitcoin than it has selling cars Posted: 09 Feb 2021 05:07 PM PST For a company with such a high market cap, this statement is really saying something. As more and more companies realize the net benefits for holding bitcoin, the more institutions will adopt it as a reserve asset. The future is bright! [link] [comments] |
If you ever feel bad about not buying Bitcoin in the early days... Posted: 09 Feb 2021 06:27 PM PST Just remember that if even you did, there's an extremely high probability that you wouldn't have held on to it. You probably would have spent it, or lost it, or had it stolen. Then you'd feel even worse than you do now. [link] [comments] |
Top 101 Coins Grouped by Usage/Purpose Posted: 09 Feb 2021 02:02 PM PST I was sort of shocked I couldn't find this data basically anywhere (or where it was available, it was usually only for a list of like 10 coins). So, without further ado, here is a breakdown of the current top 101 coins by market cap, grouped into buckets based on their usage/purpose. Note: Inevitably some coins try to 'do everything'. I limited each to only being listed once, so things are grouped by whatever their perceived or advertised primary purpose is, even if they theoretically can do more than that. (For example, probably 75% of the entire top 100 list has 'dApps' listed somewhere in their description, but it is not the main point they advertise on, at least currently, for many of them) Store of ValueThere's only one true asset in this category, and it's not one that intended to be here. Bitcoin was originally designed as digital currency, but insanely high transaction fees, changes in expectation over time, etc. have really morphed it into an asset more akin to gold or other asset stores. (AKA: It's an investment, not really for spending directly, and has limited other direct use.) Digital CurrencyWhat Bitcoin originally wanted to be, this is a category filled with Bitcoin spin offs and new tech focused primarily on cheaper, faster transactions. The use cases range from every-day purchases to more massive actions such as major cross-border intra-bank transfers. ( It's worth noting about half of this list also offers smart contracts as well ( or plan to soon ), but thus far have been primarily notable for general transaction speed/currency use. ) Smart Contracts/Distributed ApplicationsThis is going to be a long list. Smart contracts/dApps are pretty clearly the most exciting 'generic' use for Blockchain/Crypto Currencies by many people's viewpoint, opening the doors for a lot of unique applications and financial structures. Essentially everyone in this category is gunning for Ethereum's spot, and the competition is hot and heavy all the way down the top 100 list, with every entry trying to put their own spin on it. StablecoinsThese are tokens that attempt to stay pegged to some real world kind of value (generally USD) via various methods. Pretty straight forward, and mostly varies by what network/exchange you're on. Exchange TokensThese are tokens that primarily are associated with some kind of crypto-currency exchange, either Centralized(CEX) or Decentralized(DEX). A few of them also try to serve other purposes (Usually as Digital Currencies), but at heart being used as an exchange token is their most notable point, and they will largely rise and fall based on the success of their related exchange. Alternative Exchange TokensThese are tokens that are related to the crypto trading markets, but aren't really proper exchange tokens. Basically for exchange-esque activities, or offering only a specific, narrow type of alternative trading. Extra-Blockchain Communication/TransfersThese tokens/networks exist primarily to solve the problem of communicating between different blockchain networks/the non-blockchain world, and the transfer of assets across said barriers. (Ex. The Oracle Problem) Lending/Banking/Yield FarmingThese tokens and networks focus around making trustless lending and banking (savings accounts) possible, and yield-farming via said lending. Generally speaking, they work via encouraging users to stake/lock up digital collateral from other networks into their own, giving the users the network's own tokens as the loan balance and/or paying the user tokens for other users borrowing their assets. Privacy CoinsFairly self explanatory, these primarily exist to keep as much data about the network/transactions/wallets as anonymous as possible. They've obviously gotten a bad rep at times as being used often for illicit activities, but there's nothing inherently wrong with wanting privacy either. OtherThese coins/tokens have largely unique use cases, that leave them without many/any direct competitors in the top 100. Whether they go up or down is going to be mostly based on if their use cases actually exist and if they can succeed in filling them correctly. A few of these are gunning towards long term moving into the more general categories, but at least currently book themselves as having a more narrow focus. N/A - Wrapped AssetsThese are 'wrapped' versions of other assets (Bitcoin) floating around other networks for use on said networks. There's generally limited reason to directly invest in these when you could invest in their more liquid base asset. (Ex. You'd only buy them to use them in some specific DApp/etc, not just hold them in a wallet generally) Cheers, thanks for the read. [link] [comments] |
Hard work doesn't pay off, invest! Posted: 09 Feb 2021 10:17 PM PST Work a 9am-5pm job accompanied by a lot of deadlines and stress. Bend over backwards to achieve crazy goals by working long hours and sacrificed social life. After many years of dedication and exemplary work a management position opened, applied for position but was rejected because nobody could do my existing job and position was given to an outsider with no experience! Nobody ever tells us doing hard work does not always pay off. I invest to break free from the chains, and with crypto it'll be a lot sooner. Thank you for reading. [link] [comments] |
