    The Cryptocurrency Trading Journal

    To some degree, Bitcoin is a veblen good. I see it with my friends and family who finally bought btc albeit a fraction, when they could have bought many whole btc's many years ago When btc crashed to $30K last year, my crypto-curious friends (with the s) and a family member would not buy even...

    Crypto Macro Trends for 2022

    Thanks Sprout!! It was my first rugpull so I did not know how to do emergency withdrawals until yesterday The reasons you can still trade the tokens is because the liquidity pools (token pairs) are on SpookySwap The PulseDao team shutdown the server, but the smart contract is a fork of smart...

    Tom Brady's last ball

    You got a lot of hate for NFT's now, Pek [I only have a little bit invested in NFT's, ~$50k value if I can unload them at current price floor] Which one do you hate more, Bitcoin or NFT's?

    Kevin O’Leary says he’s put 20% of his portfolio in crypto,

    Of course!! I assumed it was already implied that wife is involved with a major decision like that. She has full access to everything in case something happens to me Bitcoin and cryptos are kinda boring the past week or so even with the stock market "crashing" so I don't see Bitcoin going to...

    Kevin O’Leary says he’s put 20% of his portfolio in crypto,

    Life is not fair. The Winklevoss twins still have not sold a single bitcoin since they started buying at $10-12. They never needed the money I did not hold Bitcoin from 2013 until today, I wanted big returns from the altcoins. In retrospect, the best move as far as btc is concerned, was for me...

    New York’s First NFT Restaurant to Open in Times Square This Year

    I said 18 Bitcoins (3 at exchange), you said attention to detail is important, but you missed it :D I suppose you also missed the hundreds of thousands of $ in bank accounts, and I didn't mention I also have hundreds of thousands worth of stablecoins and cryptos but no way for you to know that...

    Kevin O’Leary says he’s put 20% of his portfolio in crypto,

    He prevented a lot of retail investors from investing in Bitcoin when it was much lower in price I have a friend from work (when I was still working) who used to send me negative news or negative interviews of "experts" who criticize bitcoin, I'm pretty sure one of those videos was of Kevin. He...
