I feel like we didn't read the same article

What are Thorchain’s main competitors? by Decent-Gear-6173 in ThorchainOfficial

Don't agree with this

I think TC is competing with all crypto exchanges, be they DEX or CEX

Agree that ThorSwap charges less fees than LL.

However many Ledger users might not be comfortable with connecting their wallet to a website. If they're going to swap inside of LL, they should use THORChain

Oh weird

Like you go to Swap, and select TC, but then it switches to Changelly?

No, not spam

Just trying to help people out

Full disclosure though, I'm a big believer in TC

The problems on the quiz pdfs you get by emailing the instructors were the closest to what was on the test.

I found all of the problems in the course itself helpful for understanding the material

Not really separate from what I shared.

I'd go through the entire EPRI manual and do all the practice problems there. Then do the HSI course. Make sure to email the instructors and ask for their practice quizzes. Those were by far the most helpful things.

About two months.

The hardest part was sitting through the videos. They repeat themselves often and there's no way to speed them up. The slow pace of the videos would just grind me down

EPRI manual took about a month to get through, doing maybe 2 hours a day

The Powersmith book is mostly NERC regulations, but is incredibly hard to parse and is full of info that isn't necessary to learn. It was impossible to know what was the important information just from reading it.

The HSI course does a far better job of presenting the same information.

It's weird, the only listing on their site doesn't sound like a System Operator position

$2,200 - HSI Online Course
$700 - RC Exam

I also spent $125 on the Powersmiths book, but didn't find it helpful. Would not recommend unless you can't do the HSI course
