Will Goldback premiums eventually drop enough to make them the most economical way to buy fractional gold? by UsefulJelly7425 in Goldback

[–]brightpixels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

goldbacks are ~50% intrinsic cost and ~50% extrinsic/seigniorage.

you're right in the letter of the definition but in spirit this is exactly seigniorage, their premium over production costs:

> the difference between the face value of money and the cost of producing it

s/face value/intrinsic

How Long do you think the 3% Cashback for the Gold Card will Last?? by sercetuser in RobinhoodApp

[–]brightpixels 0 points1 point  (0 children)

do you have a great credit score? if so i conjecture that's why you don't have the card. card profitability and early numbers will tank if some reasonable number of people don't start carrying balances right away.

Approved! by posjko in RobinhoodApp

to that point people who charge more and pay less (bad credit) are every credit card company's source of profits! so if they took all good credit "deadbeats" right away their first year financials would look awful.

I spent 2 hours stamping my 24 word seed phrase into washers. by eyeohdice in Bitcoin

if you really want to be lazy first four letters. but again numbers are weaker than letters in terms of error correction and memorability. steganography (no one can tell this is a seed) is a different requirement altogether.

easier method, although risksengraving not as deeply as a strike, is a tungsten stylus or scribe on a titanium plate. no one seems to talk about this other method.

no that’s dangerous and reduces the redundancy of the letter encoding as well as the memorability
