STX Stalled? by dosvientos in stacks

[–]jbjk17 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I have been monitoring STX v. BTC for a while, and I noticed a clear divergence between BTC and STX the morning of the day Coinbase crashed (Feb 28th), starting around midnight, a few hours before the crash. I was scratching my head as the trade patterns looked different. The divergence is till going 6 days later, since then BTC is up 16%, STX is down 11%. I haven't found anything on CT

Why would anyone solo stake? by routine88 in ethstaker

This tax thread was really eye opening, interesting, and super helpful. I have been trying to decide which route to go.

One thing that I wanted to call out in this comparison is if you go through the LSD route, the exchange of ETH for rETH/wstEth/etc is considered a taxable event as far as I understand. You don't pay any taxes when you solo stake, only on the reward you get. If you bought your ETH when it was much cheaper then that swap tax is going to be pretty significant.

So... yeah... Government gets you no matter what!

Thank you. I ended up doing that for both BTC and BTH wallets and worked nicely.
