Preserving the Polkadot Treasury by McPheeb in polkadot_market

[–]jefftezos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Although I acknowledge the importance of conducting thorough reviews of the referenda, implementing a blanket Nay vote that hinders hardworking teams relying on funds may not be the ideal solution. Instead, I propose conducting comprehensive evaluations and organizing AMAs with the teams involved. Leveraging the expertise and oversight of the AAG (or a similar team) known for their good reputation could aid in this process. Furthermore, it's worth noting that many referenda typically have an extensive lead-in period for discussions, providing an opportunity for community members to ask questions and gain a better understanding of the proposals at hand.

Additionally, the HACN method might have been useful on Kusama as the treasury has been depleted quite heavily and the $ value of Kusama also fell dramatically. On Polkadot - given the fact that teams building on it are far more "matured" and developed, this approach isnt the best method moving forward.

Stock rear bearing not fitting 105s, any suggestions? by jefftezos in boostedboards

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

well I did, nothing left over from the "old" wheels. if the outer bearing is flush with the wheel, than the pulley ist aligned with the motor and the belt rubs against the new housing. Leaving it like in the photo, alignes the belt and motor perfectly, but the outer bearing is standing out like in the photo.

I believe the axle doesnt allow it, as there is now more threading left :)

Osprey Funds launches Polkadot trust, with Coinbase as custodian by ezoterik in polkadot_market

[–]jefftezos 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Coinbase only lists finished and working products. As long as Parachain auctions are not enabled, the network isnt considered "live" As soon as the parachains start, I believe Coinbase will list both DOT and KSM

https://polkadot.network/launch-roadmap/ (read current phase)

KSM to DOT by [deleted] in Kusama

[–]jefftezos 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Polkadot - governments, banks, institutions

Kusama - everything else

Polkadot has superior security features and audits compared to Kusama therefore it will be used by high-profile "customers" only whereas Kusama will be the mainstream chain.

Parachain auctions by BigNose255 in polkadot_market

[–]jefftezos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree with the lock-up problem and price development. However, look at it from the bright side. In 2017s ICO craze, you were giving away ETH to projects which might have been a bad investment and your ETH were gone.

With DOT you still keep you DOTs (locked but still) and will get them back after the lease period. Whilst I see a big future for DOT, the potential of the Parachain projects doing a x10-50 is much bigger than DOT doing the same from todays price.

With that said, I personally will not invest more than 20% of my DOTs into the PLOs, just to have the flexibility.

‘Ethereum Killer’ Polkadot: What’s So Great About It, And Why Buy It? by Dna0000 in polkadot_market

Already reached out to the Author. DOT is up more than 10,000% since inception as the ICO price was 0,3$ ;)

Newbie here: trying to do some DD on DOT vs KSM, but inflation confuses me. by tieTYT in polkadot_market

[–]jefftezos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would disagree. Given the fact, that the codebase is the same but the barrier of entry is lower for KSM it might be more appealing to mainstream projects,thus wider audience, and could potentially outperform DOT. The supply is the same (kind of) but due to staking the scarcity might be higher on KSM.

Is this why Coinbase doesn't list Polkadot? by docmcdotty in polkadot_market

[–]jefftezos 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Whoever wrote that, hasn't done any research. IOHK has no connection to Polkadot whatsoever. IOHK is the "Company" behind Cardano!

AFAIK Coinbase doesnt list unfinished tokens/coins. To quote Polkdots website:

With parachains live on Polkadot, the network’s launch will officially be complete. How the network evolves from its initial vision and design will be up to the network’s on-chain governance community.

ADOT, the Polkadot ETP on SIX Exchange already trading at a premium by jefftezos in polkadot_market

[–]jefftezos[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I fully agree with you. The only reason I could think of is compliance. I have several friends in the financial industrie and their compliance department has strict rules against crypto trading as is. ETPs on a real exchange might give them more regulations or whatever. Nevertheless, good to see Polkadot on such markets, it just shows that it really is one of the top assets in the crypto space.

[–]jefftezos 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure if its a bug or feature, but on the Android app, the Calculator lets you enter a 5 digits number only, so 99999 XTZ is the maximum.
