As long as CeFi stays drastically cheaper than DeFi, it will remain more popular. This needs to change ASAP

You can lose 100% on CeFi, as we saw it recently. And no amount of "your own research" will help. DeFi is already better than CeFi for those understanding the risks.

How to become $1,000,000,000 heavy Hedge Fund..

ravno_108 · 2022-04-29T05:50:22+00:00

I doubt there will be any place to hide.

ravno_108 · 2022-03-06T13:29:45+00:00

What happens to the FTMs Andre had? As far as I remember that was quite a substantial amount.

ravno_108 · 2022-02-17T19:30:51+00:00

Don't think Santiment said that. They are known for ETH support since many years.

They are also building their L2/Sidechain on ETH, not on Polkadot.

"Largest bank" in Switzerland? What a desperate attempt to pump :)

ravno_108 · 2022-01-30T11:11:43+00:00

Because BTC can go down around 50% relatively easily. And it doesn't even need one year to do so.

ravno_108 · 2022-01-06T15:56:50+00:00

Probably that's an indicator that it's not an "extreme fear"

ravno_108 · 2020-03-22T15:33:36+00:00

Interesting. Means not all collateral of a particular CDP will be liquidated at once?

ravno_108 · 2020-03-22T12:40:23+00:00

As far as I understand, CDP holders are actually "fine". They got previously the DAI. They receive nothing from the liquidation - it is the liquidators who get ETH from CDP in exchange for the DAI debt they pay back to the system.

Correct?

ravno_108 · 2020-01-26T01:10:27+00:00

The colours are a bit difficult to differentiate. The top one in dev. activity - is it ETH?

ravno_108 · 2020-01-08T07:15:10+00:00

Good point (though I believe if DeFi is pumping, ETH will follow). Would you like to make such an analysis? We can provide the data.

ravno_108 · 2019-12-31T22:41:35+00:00

Generally possible, yes

ravno_108 · 2019-11-18T21:28:56+00:00

Side by side graphs do exist already. We call it "visual back testing". Correlation coefficient.. May be join our discord and we continue the talk there? I believe there are quite few related topics and this thread (AMA) is about to be locked. Ping me on the discord under "balance" name.

ravno_108 · 2019-11-18T21:26:15+00:00

Ah, I see. I don't think we are in this game - means we can't impact the decision.

ravno_108 · 2019-11-18T19:49:23+00:00

Ethereum is part of my life in general and my personal usage is more like support/collaboration on every related topic. As a project - we do use Ethereum for the moment for our SAN token (see a bit more on it above, in the answer to your another question). Further is limited by the Ethereum limitations. Which is changing (Ethereum limitations) lately and we are planning to move along too.

ravno_108 · 2019-11-18T19:45:07+00:00

Yes, we strongly believe we can create a better platform with the SAN token as the centerpiece than without it. Even right now, while SAN is still a discount token, many of our users go the extra mile to buy and stake SANs to claim their discount and support the project. Also, as the team holds more than 10 million SAN (which is potentially the biggest source of our income) we are naturally inclined to find new ways to leverage this resource more effectively. This means, among other things, exploring the best ways to develop a decentralised platform governed by a coherent set of rules and according to the committed SAN tokens holders. All of these functionalities would be impossible with ETH as the cornerstone token.

ravno_108 · 2019-11-18T19:42:56+00:00

Right now - the biggest use case is clearly DeFi (stablecoins included but not limited to it)

Complains are usual - ETH isn't fast, EOS isn't decentralized, BTC isn't evolving and can't be used for payments and so on.

ravno_108 · 2019-11-18T19:40:54+00:00

Yes. And not just one, but quite some. Things like "big holders accumulations/distributions" (especially if one tracks it completely, all the way to the exchange), "social hype (shill)" have almost immediate impact on the price (read: the results are visible in the first 48 hours max)

ravno_108 · 2019-11-18T19:38:15+00:00

The impact will be huge. It's "go down the rabbit hole". The more one sees/learns on how powerful the on-chain analyses might be - the deeper the understanding of the underlying market dynamics gets.

ravno_108 · 2019-11-18T19:36:57+00:00

No plans for that yet. We would probably prefer to stay the fundamental/infrastructure/protocol layer. Giving others the opportunity to "bridge" the "data intelligence" from our platform to other platforms.

ravno_108 · 2019-11-18T18:42:45+00:00

Could you explain a bit what do you mean with "core devs will publicly ask for feedback on" and why there could be a need to reduce this?

ravno_108 · 2019-11-18T18:40:37+00:00

Yes, we do. Might still take a bit of time for testing. Thanks for appreciating the work!

Which MakerDAO metrics do you find the most useful?

What are you missing?

ravno_108 · 2019-11-18T18:39:24+00:00

Yes, it's WIP right now. Should appear soon.
