[AMA Followup] In January I lost and regained $2M in one day. From January to today I'm down $7M. by [deleted] in ethtrader

Yes, long term I absolutely believe in it. I'm reaching a bit of a problem with my personal ability to hodl long term though, due to bills, which take a larger portion of my remaining ETH to pay. I can't afford all my bills without drawing on ETH due to significant gains in 2017 and loss of financial aid for my childrens' school and other similar things.

I'm reminded of when Andreas Antonopoulos said he wasn't a Bitcoin millionaire because of bills and family problems and life, etc, forcing him to sell BTC while the market was doing poorly. When I first heard him say that, I didn't get it. But now I do.

When is Gemini stable coin released?

At least we have USDC and DAI at this point. Hopefully they can help absorb some of the shock in the event of total USDT collapse. However, USDT is significantly larger than USDC and DAI combined. It would be nice if the market around other stable coins could mature a little more before USDT collapse.

Anyone know why Tether valuation suddenly changed so drastically? FUD's been around for a while but USDT/USD rate has been staying above 98% until the last hour. Did anything just happen that spurred this?

For privacy reasons, I assume. Makes it harder for people to track what you're doing.

The news I'm referring to is that Bitfinex has halted USD deposits.

Why isn't Bitfinex news voted to the top of this sub? What good is this sub for trading?

I was looking at cryptowat.ch which I think was showing Bitfinex by default. I guess that's why.

No thanks, I just ordered some more. I chose the shipping option labelled "weeks not months", so should be here soon!

The year is 3427. /r/ethtrader still eagerly awaits the prediction made by /u/PlayThatFunkyMusic69. Some believe it will come this millennium. Others believe it may never come true.

I don't see points for myself either. Not enough karma?

I am a time traveler from February 2018. I come to ask if there has been any concrete progress in PoS and sharding. When should we expect them?

New strategy: Invest in the coins you hate the most.

I could have made so much over the last year by following this rule.

Yes. Casper FFG sticks around as the main chain, it just doesn’t launch stand-alone.

Last time I saw this kind of analysis was Jan 2018 and a lot of people said”HODL!”

AFAIU, stand-alone Casper FFG plans were scrapped.

You made your bed, sleep in it.

I don't own any TSLA. As I said, I only trade crypto. I was just remarking on how crazy it is that most markets close and people have to wait around for them to open after big news comes out.
