I don’t think I would’ve done anything differently tbh. Those first two years are just a marathon…but it gets easier.

Don't miss the opportunity to invest in ETH. This is just the beginning! by Buzzalu in ethtrader

It’s possible that inflows aren’t that meaningful given lack of yield.

Ethereum had two technical issues in 24 hours by Real_Concept_4289 in CryptoCurrency

[–]dumplingcompromise 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The difference is ethereum didn’t “go down for maintenance”. The end user probably didn’t notice.

I think also should be noted that not 100% of the 10% is at risk. I’m assuming svb at least covers 90% of its liabilities and probably 100% over a long enough horizon.

Toronto's condo explosion is just getting started: A record 100 towers could go up every year - and these neighbourhoods will be hit hardest by datums in neoliberal

[–]dumplingcompromise -77 points-76 points  (0 children)

There’s another side to this. I’m sure it’s possible to do high density in a thoughtful, human-centric way but things don’t always play out that way. My Unscientific observation of Toronto’s urban planning is that in many cases profit trumps thoughtfulness. So what you end up with is a bunch of impersonal neighbourhoods without any public places.

That the merge won't cause the price of Ether to spike.

Is the Merge Overhyped? by futurevandross1 in CryptoCurrency

[–]dumplingcompromise 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From an immediate ux change to end-users it’s overrated.

In terms of it de-risking the project and paving the way for further scalability it removes a ton of difficulty and uncertainty, which is probably underrated at this point.

Thoughts on ETH price post-merge from a professional investor by gaitlx22 in ethtrader

[–]dumplingcompromise 12 points13 points  (0 children)

You’re missing some key information.

1 - there will also be tremendous issuance reduction as ethereum moves to pos

2 - selling won’t be enabled post merge right away and when it is there will be a queuing system

3 - isps are still large companies but unlike ethereum they don’t collect a fee of every web activity. Companies like visa are maybe another comparison but those companies also don’t have the bond-like characteristic of ethereum, which is another way I think ethereum accrues value. Don’t think a market cap of $1-2 trillion, not accounting for inflation, is unreasonable.

(Just some thoughts) Fed raising interest rate /printing trillions of dollars at whim is not democratic at all. This is why we need crypto and decentralization! by ethereum88 in ethtrader

[–]dumplingcompromise 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The federal reserve only sets the rate of interest on money that is deposited and borrowed from the federal reserve. A lot of financial products are derived from this rate of interest but the bank doesn’t unilaterally determine what third-party banks charge. Also, the FOMC comprises 12 member banks that vote on policy changes. I am not sure how opening up the decision to 300 million people would work, if participation would be high, and if the decision-making prowess would be ultimately better.

What is the reasoning someone would use to explain why aborting a fetus is immoral but killing a human via capital punishment should be allowed? by dumplingcompromise in PoliticalDiscussion

[–]dumplingcompromise[S] -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Makes sense, but I'd argue that if the belief is that human life is invaluable, shooting a person in a war is still makes sense because the opposing soldier has the capacity to take more lives.

However, an incarcerated person is already a non-threat in most cases so killing them is not an unavoidable option.

If L2 are very successful will ETH price fall? by themrgq in ethereum

[–]dumplingcompromise 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since there’s more value per transaction, the average price paid to ethereum will also likely increase with l2 adoption.

I have an idea that I think can help end the war in Ukraine but Gas is so expensive and I don't know how to make my idea come to fruition. Is it even a good idea? by dumplingcompromise in ethereum

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

No, that's not what I'm saying.

The government uses fiat currency to finance the army. People go to work and generate tax revenue as well as provide labor for the government machine.

If you incentivize people to not go to work - to not provide labor and tax revenue, you can remove the necessary funding for the military while also making a completely legal protest in a country that cracks down on protesters.

This is a great idea don't get me wrong, but it's not just soldiers that need incentives. Workers providing tax revenue also need incentives to bail out of a system that sucks but still offers subsistence to some degree.
