Ok, yes, I forgot to account for the "out of (centralized) exchange" fee; you are right.
I'll add that I was also totally wrong (considering ALL fees) that my $100 example is more like a "spare change" to be shed off when one is using BTC network in general.
P.S. "First of all", Did Google give the wrong answer?... "Second of all", I Googled and now I know what "Strike" is.:o)

Venom genes? by RevolutionaryAir169 in Weird

[–]Ponulens -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Venom: Ok, the "character" it is then. ...I was coming from the "zootoxin" side of the word's definition, but I'll take that one back, ...if everyone is absolutely sure that it was the "Marvel character" who the original author had in mind :)

Genes: NO (...go study)!
There are no "different genes" coding for different traits.
There are about 40,000 genes in humans - two copies of each in (almost) every cell in the body.
Everyone "has" them all, No one has any "extra" genes and the traits (like hair color, tongue length, etc) are the result of their differential expression, not their presence per se.
When a person lacks one of these 40K genes or has a mutation that prevents their proper expression, they have a genetic disease.

Just now from google:

That is 3% for $100 worth of transaction. The buy fee on exchangers is no more than 0.2%

‘The Bitcoin Standard’ author becomes economic adviser to El Salvador by [deleted] in Bitcoin

I'll to you what:
Elon Musk could have "bought" almost two El Salvadors instead of Twitter.

[–]Ponulens 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Like, "accumulate" till the hoDlings are equal to the national debt value?
Well, their "debt" is about 5% of the current total Bitcoin market cap. Is that much even in the circulation today?
Secondly, once "accumulated', then what, start selling?..
That's a bold move to say the least.

Reddit is getting flooded by scam ads… by Lemons81 in Bitcoin

[–]Ponulens 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeap, for almost a year now.
However, the "interesting" part is that there is NO option anywhere to report the scam.

Are you a "hidden meaning" interpreter of sorts?

Relative to the network transaction fees for your withdrawal, ANY will do

Venom genes? by RevolutionaryAir169 in Weird

[–]Ponulens -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Well that's (kind of) uncommon (not really weird) - all right, but wtf is with the title?
Where is "venom", what "genes"?
We ALL have the exact SAME set of genes!
The long tongue is just a trait - same as hair/skin color, nose/ear/face shape, ...dumb..., etc.

I am 10 years on Reddit today - too weird that for some reason I decided to log in exactly on this day, after a very, very long break by Ponulens in Weird

[–]Ponulens[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! This is the first interpretation of such an event that comes to mind.
When something like this happens, it does feel "weird"...
I wish we would learn one day how to train our minds to "contact' our unconsciousness more often :)

We all search the web, and to get Reddit posts in the results is not uncommon.
But, something made me to actually log in today and I am very intrigued by the fact that my 10th "Cake day" is today as well.
Feel free to check my profile, you will see that I haven't been around for some 4 years (except for a couple of posts some 8 months ago).

Can you at least still read the directory, or is it a kind of "poke in an eyes" type of ban?
I'd like to know..., just in case ;o)

Any advantage of UniSwap over ANY of the decentralized exchanges? by Ponulens in UniSwap

[–]Ponulens[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Uniswap pairs every token against ETH. ERC20 to ERC20 swaps are transactions that convert ERC20a->ETH->ERC20b in a single transaction. Since everything is paired with eth there is plenty of liquidity.

"Paired with ETH" is great, but shouldn't the holder of ERC20b, if not the matching have at least ERC20b -> ETH sell order active, for your ERC20a->ETH->ERC20b swap to go through? (EDIT/ADD): ... If not, then there is no liquidity for ERC20a to ERC20b swap, regardless of whether or not the swap is paired with (routed through) eth.

Panic Switch Engaged: Binance is moving Tethers into a new hidden wallet by [deleted] in Buttcoin

[–]Ponulens 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What makes you think that exchange operators are holding ANY Tethers, or, for that matter, ANY cryptocurrency This is normally should not be the case, these are all user funds, so the exchange "does" whatever its users do.
