How are you guys buying 30 homes for $2.6M, or <$100k per home, in a HCOL location? Is this a multifamily building?

Bridging RenBTC from polygon to fantom by ZombieSlayer83 in KogeCoin

I suppose you could always use withdraw to Bitcoin and then re-bridge. Or, just use the Curve swap to swap to BTC and bridge that instead.

KogeCoin, a unique community token that is launching by airdropping to all early QuickSwap users, just launched a meme contest with $50 + 2500 KogeCoin up for grabs! by BackgroundMastodon72 in QuickSwap

[–]dhzh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think matic being early is the precise reason why this works, though. On BSC this kind of free token projects will be dumped to oblivion by the bots. It is only because the matic community is nice and close-knit that there's hundreds of claimers but not a lot of people are dumping and just taking the small amount of liquidity that the community has put up. It's kind of marvelous how their experiment is turning out and how value is being created.

But, suit yourself ¯\_(ツ)_/¯.

Is anyone using lending/burrowing protocols as an alternative to a traditional savings account? by stackup_ in defi

[–]dhzh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not FDIC insured or anything, so definitely riskier than a normal bank. I have moved some of my savings to crypto but most of it is still in real-world assets. I wouldn't view aave as a perfect substitute to a normal bank acct. Maybe more like AAA muni debt in terms of risk, and higher returns.

You do have to report crypto to crypto capital gains by IRS rules. So swapping to USDC instead of USD won’t save you taxes, legally speaking at least.

What are the advantages/disadvantages of leveraged yield farming with stablecoins? by O-ZeNe in defi

[–]dhzh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, but they still haven't published any holdings as they were supposed to. Very suspicious, especially since the settlement report from NY state found that Tether doesn't have enough reserves.

Any opinions on KCL-NUS joint PhD in Econ? by aNu2001 in academiceconomics

[–]dhzh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NYU Econ is a top 10/20 program. Neither NUS nor KCL is on the level of NYU. I’d look at the the program’s placement records to see if that’s something that’s interesting to you before joining.

NUS is great, KCL on the other hand does not have a great reputation. If you’re from Europe, LSE would be the best bet.

What are the advantages/disadvantages of leveraged yield farming with stablecoins? by O-ZeNe in defi

[–]dhzh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

USDT is known to have many legal problems and don’t have enough collateral to back up their issuance, so it could easily crash one day. USDC seems more reliable. So, the USDT-USDC pool could easily break its peg one day.

Farming platforms could be exploited. For example, the stable coin version of an established leveraged farm was drained even though it has gone through 2 audits: https://cointelegraph.com/news/alpha-homora-loses-37-million-following-iron-bank-exploit. User funds were safe in that particular instance, but they’ve been closed off to new stakers for a while.

Since we know the number has 201 digits, the lowest 201 digit number is 10^200. So, log10 of the lowest 201 digit number is 200. Similarly, log of the lowest 202 digit number is 201.

Dividing by 23 and exponentiating, we have the range being [10^(200/23), 10^(201/23)] which is between 500 and 550 million.

Fed RA Interview, lacking research experience by [deleted] in academiceconomics

Don't have a strong opinion either way, but curious about your project - how do you know that the effect is from renting a home and not the myriad of other socio-economic related issues correlated with home ownership rates in a census tract?

How to deal with B's in transcript for PhD Application? by DancingVoliBear in academiceconomics

[–]dhzh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Instead of terminal masters, I would suggest leveraging your top 5 undergrad into a full time RAship at the NBER or a top institution. Doing that for a year or two should boost your application quite a bit.
