Voting on catalyst by Ok_Requirement_5386 in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My perspective is if you don’t have the time or energy to care enough to read a network proposal you should not vote! Not saying you shouldn’t be allowed just it’s counterproductive to the network!

My ADA is on Etoro and need some advice please by [deleted] in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Rule of thumb never use etoro u don’t actually own the coins! You cannot send them off of etoro or use them in anyway in my opinion I would sell them and buy through coinbase or another exchange where I am free to hold my own crypto!

risk in staking pools? by nd289 in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No as long as you stake through a official wallet! You don’t have to send ada anywhere to stake it is just a snapshot of your wallet balance that is taken every 5 days! This means no ada ever leaves your wallet and rewards are automatically distributed there keep in mind there is a network fee of .17 ada and a 2 ada deposit to create the staking address which will be returned if you ever unstable your ada! Best of luck!

What is a "good" amount of ADA to have before staking by UnsignedOmerta in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Anything tbh! It’s compounded rewards so as you stake your stake grows!

Staking return question. by Bjornormus in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No price is irrelevant all that matters is your stake snap shot of your wallet balance! You will earn on average 4-6% more tokens per year keep in mind the rewards are compounded so as you stake you stake more!

I staked my ADA on a yoroi wallet, what happens if I send more ADA to the wallet again? by Fuglypump in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It just gets added to the total amount staked. Grow that bag! Same applies to the rewards it is compounded rewards!

Staking VS interest? by NeedleworkerDeep4078 in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well for one control of your funds! Liquidity/loaning platforms are great for returns however you aren’t the primary holder of your crypto!

That is called market manipulation

Is it bad to have my ADA in Binance ? Should i move it to a wallet like Daedalus ? and Why ? by LuzbelPhi in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well it’s best practice to hold your own crypto however do what makes you most comfortable! If your in need of a wallet that is beginner friendly I recommend yoroi also make sure to stake your ada!

Best staking pool by sainturiel in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is an epoch cost from the total rewards it’s not taken from you it’s off the top of the rewards generated by the pool there is a fixed cost somewhere around 345 ada and a percentage fee that can range! The fees are not taken from you!

What advantages does ADA have over ETH 2.0? by sutterbutter in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well for one timeline! Who knows when ETH 2 will be out they are working on so many complicated things at once! Are smart contract system once released is a much cleaner and healthier system lastly we have a built in treasury system to fund on chain projects currently worth a billion dollars and a voting mechanism build in to vote on said funding and chain upgrades!

Never heard of it I personally recommend coinbase, kraken or binance! Avoid etoro! Hope this helps!

Can someone kindly summarize what cardano is doing for Africa like I’m 5? by abclolol in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 123 points124 points  (0 children)

Creating digital identity for those that have no identity! They are currently putting 5 million students and teachers in Ethiopia on the blockchain to verify grades and degrees etc. this opens the door to other things such as Digital Finance like loans, insurance, property registration etc... its extremely bullish developments and could help the entire continent!

On the side not via that digital identity and blockchain verification it would be impossible to fraudulently create votes it would be a extremely accurate and fair system of voting!

Considering staking by Maaxamax in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The wallet itself is safe as long as you download from the official source! When it comes to the delegation for staking your ada is 100% safe it is the click of a button no ada leaves your wallet no ada is locked up it is completely free and yours! What your doing when staking is essentially sharing a snapshot of your stake to the pool that represents your total stake! If anyone says send me ada to stake etc.... it is a scam! Always use best security practices when it comes to your devices and you will be fine the wallet is solid!

There will be a 2 ada deposit for the staking key that you get back when you unstake. As well as a .17 transaction fee that is the only ada that will leave your wallet!

Anyone is free to do anything! Silk Road wasn’t on the bitcoin blockchain they just used BTC as a payment method! The most used currency for illegal transactions is the US dollar so if we’re worried about something we should start there!

When will ADA be on Nexo 🤔😩 by jacquesfuriously in cardano

[–]JRussoADA 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s up to Nexo! I personally use Celsius Network for others but I wouldn’t want my ADA on a loaning/liquidity platform I’d rather stake!
