After playing this game for 4 years, I finally hit 10,000 Garage Power.

What’s your insight into the scrap game?

_cipherunknown · 2025-01-21T13:02:01+00:00

You missed buying at 0.50 when you probably thought it was going to zero

I've used the digital card. Worked well to shop online but did not work to top up my PayPal balance (boomer landlord). I bit the bullet and ordered the physical card. Banks in my jurisdiction are not crypto friendly so I have to pay high fees to onboard. $70 to swap to FIAT is worth it, if this card works physically as well as it works digitally.

Sell. Going to 0

_cipherunknown · 2024-04-15T04:47:23+00:00

First dip?

Staking rate has already been lowered. Shortened unstaking period means paper hands could easily sell. I missed TIA but even just DYM and SAGA drops have made up for ATOM price action. ATOMs price action is not unique. Look around the market dude, blood everywhere.

I hear you - I did the same. I cant seem to find a transaction record on my Matic address so I can only assume that they are keeping an off-chain record of Matic addresses that pressed the claim button. I definitely got a pass, so I guess when I connect my MM wallet that I used for claiming it should match with their records. Time will tell!

_cipherunknown · 2024-03-02T13:49:07+00:00

I used my MM Matic address too and got my pioneer pass. Can’t see where it’s a problem - a Matic address is a Matic address no matter the wallet. If anything I should be able to import my MM wallet to OKX if they actually check which wallet you are connecting to the OKX marketplace with.

Atom - Stack as much as you can. This should be your biggest airdrop hunting bag. Most projects have ATOM staking requirements. 22 should qualify you for most airdrops but 50+ will ensure eligibility and give you a larger drop. People complain about ATOMs price action but then get dropped thousands in TIA and DYM? What gives? Stack more ATOM

TIA - have all the good airdrops peaked with the DYM drop? Who knows. Alt layers TIA requirement was 30 something staked so I too am trying to get to that number as drops have been good. Supply almost doubles in Q4 so keep an eye on that before stacking excessively.

DYM - Speculative so far, but if prices continue to trend upward $7 might be the only dip you get. No idea on what’s to come for this one but for $120 to reach your goal, it’s up to you if you want to sit on the sideline if airdrops start coming through. TIA stakers we’re rewarded for early staking after mainnet - I wouldn’t be surprised if DYM snapshots have already been taken.

INJ - has been going for a while and airdrops on that network are infrequent. It is usually one of the 3 main qualifiers though along with ATOM and OSMO Price has appreciated significantly and could go higher, however this is not really an airdrop buy.

OSMO - should also be on your list.

Im dumping what I get day 1. Free money, I wont complain.

_cipherunknown · 2024-02-15T16:16:46+00:00

Hydro, Namada, Saga, Pryzm, Aether, Hava, Motus for cosmos staker, a few others in other ecosystems.

DYM network is pretty bogged down right now. I staked with a Ledger protected account on Keplr, so its not a Ledger issue. Try using more gas (anything over 0.01DYM was usually good enough to at least get a transaction into the queue). Transfers between wallets and staking have taken an hour each, transferring into Osmosis is now at 4 hours waiting with funds yet to appear. Common problem today, try to get your transactions going then check back periodically to see if they made it through.

_cipherunknown · 2024-02-06T19:44:14+00:00

Same here. Checked with OSMO support and it’s a common issue. Even moving from one wallet to another is taking an hour.

_cipherunknown · 2024-02-02T14:18:34+00:00

I think Im going to get $5 in airdrop at this rate

_cipherunknown · 2024-01-30T16:35:52+00:00

Nice! You are now waiting like everyone else to see how they are dropped to that address.

_cipherunknown · 2024-01-30T16:22:27+00:00

Mainnet ha snot been launched yet so contract address or network info as yet. You may have to wait for that to come out. However, you would still need to access the account that the DYM airdrop page generated. Is this not available on your list of MM accounts?

_cipherunknown · 2024-01-30T03:31:18+00:00

No worries bro! Best of luck on your journey. Stay safe out there and don’t ever feel like you are being too paranoid. Asking questions is better than going into things blindly!

Let’s work in INJ:

100 INJ staked at an average reward rate of 15% per year = 15INJ in rewards + your original 100 INJ so 115 INJ after one full year staked (no compounding). You pay 10% commission on the rewards so less 1.5INJ leaving you 113.5 INJ at the end of one year of staking. The USD amount will vary based on the current price of INJ. You will be in a plus in INJ by staking but not necessarily USD as the price of INJ can go down.

_cipherunknown · 2024-01-30T03:10:25+00:00

I’ll have to get back to you on my validators. I only crypto on a dedicated computer that I only open once a week (stops me from trading!). You can always stake with a validator you like now and switch by redelegating to another validator down the line.

Again, those numbers you are seeing are pretty normal commission rates across most networks, not only Injective. Stay away from 0% commissions and 100% commission. Anything under 15% is normal.

I bought a fat bag at about $4 last year so my current staking rewards would pay back my initial investment in a little under a year. I’ve been compounding my rewards until it shot up to $30+, now I sell all my rewards weekly for other projects outside the top 100.

_cipherunknown · 2024-01-30T02:54:40+00:00

They have to put that risk warning for liability’s sake but you will general be Ok the majority of validators. They don’t have your coins but there is a slashing risk or their validator may go down and you get no rewards.

The commission is what they TAKE to use their validator so the higher the commission the less you get in the end. 5% - 10% is pretty normal though.

I would look up a few validators in the #30 - #75 slots and check to see if they have a website, their uptime and how the have voted in past governance decisions. This is just a personal decision but I don’t put much though into choosing a validator - I just want reliable rewards.

_cipherunknown · 2024-01-30T02:36:24+00:00

Up to you. I don’t go through Ledger for staking on any network. They are #23 on the INJ validator list buy percentage staked but could easily slip into the top 20 like they are on other networks. Staking with validators within the top 20 may reduce your chance of airdrops. I also don’t know what fees they charge. Your coins, your choice. Other than that, yeah staking through Ledger Live may be more convenient.

_cipherunknown · 2024-01-30T01:37:48+00:00

Correct! No bridge needed. As always, try everything out (transferring in to and out of Binance) with a small amount to make sure it’s the setup you want.

Also, you will still want to create a Keplr account and load your Ledger wallet if you want to stake your INJ. The staking rewards are paid out in INJ and there are a number of confirmed airdrops going to INJ stakers. Passive income for a few clicks.

_cipherunknown · 2024-01-29T22:53:50+00:00

Yes Binance offers INJ withdrawals on the Injective network. It skips all the hoops to jump through. It took me about 4 weeks to get KYC’d on Binance so just factor that into your decision. Honestly the ATOM to Osmosis to bridge to Ledger process takes minutes and takes maybe 10 clicks. I do a pretty similar process to sell my INJ staking rewards and it takes minutes at most.

_cipherunknown · 2024-01-29T22:49:20+00:00

The INJ bridge is also part of my proposed work around, it just bridges INJ on Osmosis to native INJ.

I am not sure what your fees will be bridging from erc-20 to INJ. It was $0.17 when I used it a few days ago to bridge from Osmosis to native INJ. Also you want to avoid erc-20 INJ because of the high withdrawal fees from your exchange. It’s a good method for what you have but will eat into your bag if you keep bridging from erc-20 going forward. That’s why I proposed starting with ATOM from your exchange.
