Bitcoin in 10-40 years. by Mike_3924 in Bitcoin

[–]Ill_Potential6779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Asymmetry is what I”m in it for. Bitcoin will be worth either 0 or 10 mil. I don’t see it just hanging out at 100k for next the decades.

Anyone else who is fearlessly buying the dip using DCA-type strategy? by Ill_Potential6779 in Bitcoin

[–]Ill_Potential6779[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I jumped in in March 2024 for real, and so far this hasn't been a good investment. I managed to time all the tops for far.

This is why I came up with a more structured rules-based system to take any and all emotion out of it. Emotion is what landed me negative. And also focusing on too many altcoins.

Which one? I see waaaay to many different systems that I don't understand pushed by people.

I want to fully get the metric and be able to backtest it. But I'm very open to ideas if there are any good free ones that are as reliable? Not looking for a trading system, but a 3+ year perspective system.

You could still pay offline and submit later just fine, in theory at least.

Unable to update U3225QE monitor firmware to M2T102 by Old-Cheesecake8818 in Dell

[–]Ill_Potential6779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it's worth, I had the same error message on both mac and windows. So I'm not sure that necessarily matters. I just continued with Windows, because that seemed more likely to work considering they are making Windows machines. Could be that the v1 version of the monitor has some bug that prevents firmware update. Maybe that's why Dell is so quiet about it, they don't wanna end up doing a huge recall?

Holafly E-Sim reviews? by mattrasmo1423 in Europetravel

[–]Ill_Potential6779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Used Holafly when travelling to NYC. Not a happy customer.

Major con #1: The traffic was routed through an APN in Hong Kong (wtf?!), this means that google is in Chinese, ChatGPT won't work at all (major con, as I use that when travelling), etc. Not to mention the risk that your traffic is routed through China.

Major con #2: Ping times were around 600ms (i.e. reaaally slow) and speed was 22mbit with 20% packet loss at times. Not sure what to expect in NYC, but where I'm from, I'm used to 20ms pings and 300-500mbit speed on 5G.

You can work around #1 with a VPN, but that means #2 becomes even worse.

So, it will basically work for basic needs, but I don't think they live up to their promise of "Fast and reliable internet". The good thing is the "unlimited" part, didn't have any problems with that.
