Literally everyone is a wizard at crypto because the whole Market moves in tandem. The real question however is who will survive the regulatory cycle. My hunch is not many.

Taco John 11-12-2021 01:48 AM

There are probably going to be like, four or five chains that get serious adoption. They won't be meme coins. It's going to be like the real world is. You'll have your IBMs, Dell, HPe, and like, Lenovo. Or Intel, AMD, and NVIDIA. Or AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud. The block chain won't be any different. There will be a small number of big players that dominate the market.

Right now, everyone is a crypto wizard because we're in a speculative cycle. Soon the speculative cycle will turn into a regulatory cycle. When that regulatory cycle kicks in, liquidity is going to dry up fast because of two things: 1) they're going determine that ICO coins are securities, 2) they're going to rug stable coins.

It's going to be 98% of the money in 2% of the available blockchains. There will be dozens that are special niche chains. But most commerce will be run on the big players with enterprise features. BTC will probably always exist, but it will function more like a NFT. Or like a religion. Kind of like Linux or Firefox is today.

Listen to the CEO of FTX.

Nobody's going to like this. And quite frankly I wasn't going to say anything because I know that it's going to be reacted to so negatively, but I think ETH is doomed. As it is, I already regard it as the AOL of crypto. I think it's a big mess right now and I think it's going to end up in hot water with the SEC. If anything is a security, Ethereum has been. Not only did they do an Ico, but ETH2 looks like a mess right now.

Quite frankly this is a fine companion post to the one espousing XRP to get to a fast million. Incidentally anyone taking that advice would have 1/2 their value left now, that is if they stomached the crash.

Not sure what you're talking about, but I'm up big on xrp right now. Anyone who accumulated over the last four years should be up quite substantially.

Taco John 11-12-2021 10:38 AM

Also, I don't believe I've ever claimed that xrp is some sort of get rich quick coin. I wouldn't get into xrp if I wasn't patient. It's a heavily manipulated coin right now. The reason being is the financial world is moving to accumulate it.

No dude. My life is great. I'm actually happy for the Chiefs. I think you guys are well deserving of the title you won, and it looks like you've got a resilient team of talent that looks promising for years to come.

My only interest in this thread is to present people with food for thought in a very noisy space where a lot of fraud and scams are setting people up for failure. I have no ulterior motives. I am set in crypto with what I believe will be an explosive portfolio once we make it through the regulatory desert and reach the utility phase of cryptocurrency.

Whether you believe me or not, I really am here to help people, and I hope some of them are listening and connecting the dots that I've put together here. If you don't believe me, that's fine. Follow guys like Mr. Whale who sees the crypto market the same way that I see it. Though he's a little more extreme than I am in his views (He didn't think Bitcoin was going to reach ATH again in 2021, and I disagreed with that.)

I was here for the 2017 bull run, so I know how the euphoria and emotion of it all can cloud visions. Nobody wants to hear negative things about the direction of the market - but the truth is that anyone who went through it then will now tell you that they wished they would have heard more balanced voices. Everybody thought 2018 was going to be endless growth, but it dried up almost overnight - and only the whales made out with big wins. Everyone else got caught in the undertow.

All I'm saying is consider the negatives along with the positives and position yourselves not to get caught in the undertow. We're hitting a regulatory cycle. You need to consider how to position your portfolio to make it through to the other side. If you don't you will get REKT. And you'll end up in this thread wondering what went wrong.

Start by researching and understanding HR4741. I believe that if a Tether crisis actually happens like so many are predicting, this will be the legislation that congress turns to in order to say they're fixing the issue. Nobody else in this thread is telling you what to look out for. Only Taco John.

Infrastructure bill tracking and taxation, China fud again, Plan B prediction and track record not looking good. It's a myriad of things and we are in bubble territory with way too many leveraged buys.

My remaining Kucoin lends came pouring back to me as the borrowers got rekt. So I was able to buy this dip.

I also got banned from /r/bitcoin for a year for saying a guy was mental.

Holy shit. Sologenic is going parabolic right now.

https://i.imgur.com/LpDq9Gr.png

The coin itself is at an all time high, so I wouldn't personally buy it on its own - though that said, it's use case is VERY compelling - essentially tokenizing stocks and derivatives and trading them on their platform. They're trying to be the next evolution of RobinHood so far as it looks to me.

Their airdrop is insane, though. You can get details on it here. The numbers that they gave in the blog post are 20% per XRP. So basically for every 5 XRP you hold, you will get 1 SOLO. Right now XRP is trading for just under a buck, while SOLO is pushing $6.00. Do the math.

Not investment advice, but this is free money ... if you can buy some XRP and figure out how to set up a SOLO trustline.

Do what you want, but there's no dog coin out there handing out free money like this.

You're talking about every coin. 42% of all bitcoins are owned by less than two percent of all Bitcoin holders. At the very top of the Bitcoin pyramid, there are three addresses that contain more than 100,000 bitcoin each. According to River Financial, these wallets belong to Binance, Bitfinex, "and another address, whose identity is unknown." River says that these three addresses collectively own more than 575,000 bitcoin.

If decentralization is about how many and who owns the coin, then no coin is decentralized. If it's about the mechanics of the coin (i.e. the validation) then, yes, XRP is decentralized.

Telling me to cut my losses when I'm insanely up on my investments doesn't make a lot of sense.

ChimichangaJohn, Are you really using Satoshi Nakamoto’s wallet combined with reputable crypto exchange wallets as your primary argument against unfair distribution? 60% of XRP is 100% owned by like three known people. I was talking strictly about your XRP investment over the past four years.

First, I don't believe there is such a thing as "unfair distribution," so to speak. Or to state it inversely, there's no such thing as a "fair" distribution. It's a myth. A "fair" distribution would be an equal amount of whatever asset to virtually everyone.

I look at cryptos the way they should be looked at: as valuable commodities. In the case of XRP, I see it as the most valuable digital asset (in terms of long term utility) ever created. It doesn't bother me that the custodian of it is distributing it on the market the way a farmer would distribute their crops on a market to whoever wants them. Especially since right now you can get them for virtually free relative to their true value.

I think we will see a day when people will kick themselves for not even buying $100 in XRP because even that amount would be meaningful over the long term at these prices. But I get it. A lot of people are subscribed to the bitcoin religion. I personally think bitcoin is a psyop. I'm not invested in bitcoin because I think it will eventually be a great rug pull.

I guess we'll see. What I know for now is that I am insanely up on my XRP investment. I was buying in 2017, so I've accumulated a fair amount of the currency. Patience is paying off big time. The coin has a long ways to go before getting to it's true value - which will eventually be hundreds of trillions of dollars in a golden age of digital value flowing through it.

And to be clear, XRP is a coin that serves as a conduit for any tokenized digital asset. It's not competing with Bitcoin because Bitcoin can't do what XRP does. No coin can currently -
not even XLM (though it theoretically could if it had the development resources behind it that XRP does). XRP is more of a tokenized protocol for instant value exchange than it is anything else. Bitcoin is a store of value. XRP will be used in the future to provide mass liquidity for virtually any tokenized digital asset. Bitcoin simply can't do that.

Its like talking to a child who won’t give up their woobie at age 7.

Ethereum does everything you speak of and its not a security.

No, Ethereum isn't capable of doing what XRP does. Vitalik admits as much and is pointing at ETH 2.0 as the path to fix the many problems that ETH has.

Also, it's looking more and more every day like the SEC is going to move to call Ethereum a security. Gensler has stated that he agrees with Jay Clayton's assertion that any coin that had an ICO is a security. When he was recently asked specifically about Ether's status as a security under the Howey Test, he refused to answer. Further, during the XRP/SEC trial, the SEC has distanced itself tom William Hinman's speech that gave ETH a pass on being a security, saying that was only his personal opinion. ETH is not out of the woods yet.

As for me, crypto is my favorite subject in the world right now, outside of my kids. I'm more than willing to bring clarity to questions or debate the issues around it. I think this is an important moment in time, and that people are going to get rich or get REKT depending on what their holdings are, and what happens with regulation. I think people should be less tribal and more analytical at this moment.

But I could see people criticizing me because I've consolidated all of my holdings into XRP. That could be considered tribal. What I will say is that my position is based on my own personal analysis of the market and the regulatory environment. I think XRP is the most technically sound crypto, which will pass the regulatory phase and become a safe haven crypto. Once this happens, and once Tether is regulated out of existence (and the subsequent market crash that I believe will come with that happens) I will be re-deploying into whatever cryptos are left standing.

The best part about crypto going down is hoping Taco will kill himself

I've made plenty of money off crypto but I'll never shake the thought of it being certain to fail and crash. There's close to zero utility. Nobody has used Bitcoin as a currency since 2017 and no major place even accepts it. It just makes no sense. No one uses Ethereum "smart contracts" or any of the supposed use cases it has and transactions cost so much that it's pointless to even try. And other cryptos are even more useless in the real world. The whole space just makes zero logical sense. ...I'll still play though until it crashes, hey money is money.

Both you and TamaleJohn are very uninformed.

100 Billion locked in DEFI

TSLA and El Salvador have BTC on their balance sheet.

Only stupid people would use something thats as volatile as currency. There's a reason BUY AND HODL is a motto for every single crypto.


When is the last time you bought something using Bitcoin?

Foundation coins.
