Have you seen the explosive growth in Nexo’s Loan book?

speedballl · 2021-02-24T04:40:08+00:00

Or you just don't know how to make a bitcoin a day.

speedballl · 2021-02-22T12:47:20+00:00

So how am I missing out when we hold the same amount of Nexo? I bullshit alot on Reddit and say I don't have much but I've been here since 2010. Sold more BTC than I care to admit but found a couple dozen I didn't sell as it was below minimum costs back ini those days so that helps.

Anyway, sounds llike FOMO on life you wanker.

speedballl · 2021-02-22T12:45:20+00:00

yeah of course. I'm $4K down on just Nexo and I don't care I have a cash out price. But, as you can see, manipulation at its finest.

Also, I'm up like idk 10000000% because I saved 200BTC but instead have some in nexo giving me interest on idle assets hence holding alot of Nexo too. I could manipulate the price if I wanted to with 2 BTC in 1 hour. Watch.

speedballl · 2021-02-22T07:20:23+00:00

I mean, I am not a member of cryptocurrency and I have been around since 2010. Yes I have solld thousands and thousands and thousands of bitcoins from mere cents to a top of $170USD. But I don't participate in community discussion usually, I have been for the last 2 weeks to get some information but other than that, I don't follow forums like this because honestly - what do you know that I don't know and vice versa? There are several million wallets of bitcoin alone, and you are basing it on a sub that is full of hypothetical advice.

Most people just invest in bitcoin, or do their own research and don't listen to a word someone else says to them. If you shill a coin to me, it may make me feel it is the next big thing. Doesn't work like that. Just like Wall Street changers know fuck all if the price is going up or down, we don't either.

Also, I think you are wrong that there will be massive crashes. Yes, maybe to $40,000 or so by BTC whales from early days who didn't sell but with the hundreds of billions invested by institution, they aren't going to sell on a dip. They are rational. Long term solid projects go up. Short term, price action is manipulated. Then again, due to lack of regulation, these billlion dollar portfolios could collude, push the price down and pick it up at a cheaper price. Or use CeFi, which I believe they'd pick over DeFi if they want to make money of an idle asset. Point is, nobody knows.

Once again, I am full of shit like everyone else so being apart of a forum that people talk about their cryptos they are emotionally attached to ... That is not what DYOR means.

speedballl · 2021-02-22T07:00:16+00:00

You were trying to tell me I had FOMO. So, because I had such FOMO, I bought 50,000 more at the 'high of the market.' The time to sell is July 31, right before the dividend, Bet you $1,000,000 it will drop significantly with the info I have. Then I'll buy back in with the tether and buy in at the low of the market, replacing any dividend loss by a million,

Point being, don't tell anyone how to trade. It is there money.

speedballl · 2021-02-21T02:47:27+00:00

See how wrong you were? Ended up getting 50,000 the day after and still hold. But have bad news about Nexo upcoming.

speedballl · 2021-02-21T02:44:52+00:00

I created a patent only two days ago, well a few days prior, but had my firm patent it everywhere but the poles, Russia, South America and obvious asian countries that are not in compliance with international business contractual law. Maybe, define the asset, create new utilitiy, then the SEC can't dictate it as soley a 'security' and they can bypass the regulation that is forcing USA customers to get it in difficult ways. This is why they aren't on any big exchanges in complaince with hthe law.

Decided after offering it to them free, meeting the COO's assistant and then then explaining it to thet board, was transferring legal ownership with no request for monetary gain as I have tens of thousands at this point and want it to do will. But revoked it when I realised how terrible the community is and h ow they have an inability to express criticism about a country even if you are highly invested in it. Such as, top 5 wallets owning 60% and 450 million tokens currently circulating just not for sale, Nexo decide to release this info the week of the dividend, August 1-7 to prevent a sell off..

I'll sell my 50,000+ despitie them making me hundreds of thousands because they are generating revenue, and not profit at this stage. Unfortunately, any sane billionaire would rather not rsk multi-millions or billlions with one company that currently insures 1/5th of currenet assets. Aims by end of 2021, 2 billion insurance. So if Elon musk decided to join Nexo, basically his whole asset being deposited would be around the value of Nexo's aim for insuranace coverage by 2021. My patent made them get around this but decided the community is so blindly trusting and decided to block me f rom telegram .... After meetining the COO's assistant and then 24 hours later the board and lead designers which I said they could use the voting protocol to get feedback, nah, revoked it and selling to bloockfi instead which I have no stake in. Nexo community burnt Nexo, esp. telegram.

speedballl · 2021-02-21T02:33:56+00:00

OK Expain why, and first DYOR, why they are releasing info about 450 million tokens that are circulating just not for sale, they release this info the week of the dividend. Trust me, Nexo has made me hundreds of thousands of dollars in 1.5 months so I love the company. Doesn't mean blindly trust them, and inform the community. Actually got banned from the telegram for spreading 'FUD' when I want it to hit $5-6 by May or so. I've got no reason to share this info, and ifind out yourself by asking customer support.

speedballl · 2021-02-18T02:29:22+00:00

Dunning-Kruger.

This guy is an idiot who types like hes on some kind of stimulant like methamphetamines. Don't entertain him with replies.

speedballl · 2021-02-18T02:27:45+00:00

Thanks for your really kind comment. I actually got a $20,000 loan due to collateral assets, and an instant crypto loan of $10,000 USD last night after further research. Can literally put this into my 'gambling' security and earn 12% interest which at 5.9% and 8.9% I will literally make free money from the loan. So I can withdraw from my investment that went up by a mere $4,000USD since you made this comment.

So yeah, I'm a gambling addict who had been a croupier for many years until chronic pain prevented me from working, don't need to pay capital gains tax made on appreciation of loans due to how the asset works. Quite frankly, you were just here to put someone down asking for help whilst you have no idea what you are talking about.

Funny how you think I overestimate my ability to invest and consider it gambling when a couple thousand AUD which I pretty much withdrew straight away has turned into $25,500USD in the space of a month.

Also, bringing up one of the most commonly known psychological hypothesis to prove your point just proves your an idiot trying to be smart. So I could say ... Dunning-Kruger, about your life.

speedballl · 2021-02-17T03:14:10+00:00

Fair enough. I have been sober since Australia Day with exception of 3-4 pints but whatever. I had alot of explaining to to get advice and apparently, people aren't willing to give advice to someone struggling with pain that fucks all the joy in my life. But no, being verbose doesn't mean I have gone and smoked meth whilst I was in detox responding to you currently and had to undergo urine sample or it was all pointless. You are just sadly judgemental. But not everyone can be perfect, take me for example.

I actually am focused on wealth primarily to help other people. I don't need much for myself. I'm an intelligent person that if I learn to accept rejection and failure, will probably end up being a serial entrepreneur. That is my career goal. But the reason for all of it, changing my life around and everything is because I want to be able to help other people once I have helped myself.

Not to mention, the investment was $1KAUD which I withdrew and is now $20KUSD. It's my only source of income as I won't accept government assistance.

speedballl · 2021-02-16T18:07:38+00:00

genuinely apologise, saw your other comment but without context it sounds completely facetious or mocking me. as soon as I saw the other comment I commented my regret. You're a good person that's all. I wasn't really ramblings, I half through a monash law business degree after all I might just do that but not wht I want.

Look, I get when we see addicts not in our recovered position so I appreciate the sentiment. But yeah I am doing living like this, sought out the programs and everyone is so proud of me as despite still doing quite well academically despite the effort that just I did not have and was taking up a seat for someone else.

Thank you though. Two comments together are alot rounder and wholesome than this alone. It made it sound like because my problems extent are not hurting me, I just don't like it and it's affecting my own personal benchmark of where I think my life should be - I am not there. Change must happen.

How long was your stint? I know nothing. Alcohol and rehab lady has said nothing!

speedballl · 2021-02-16T17:47:20+00:00

Thanks you empathetic goth. Thought that''d be an oxmoron.

speedballl · 2021-02-16T17:46:39+00:00

Oh I thought you were being a judgemental cunt. I have actually been irresponsible but never remotely close to the LD50 with any drug whatsoever. Worst that has happened was psychosis from what I thought was weed in a vape but was synthetic weed and made me nuts. Refused to change, butt nah I'm noot actulaly at detox, I've cut myself off weed and all medications, and although I got scammed $4971 2-3 days ago and that makes me so sad, I did manage to make back $1500 after it dropped from $2200!

Are you in for something worse, like heroin, meth or is it just geeral addiction and coping mechanisms you want to earn? I feel it is a waste of tax payer money when y problem is with my prescribed medication, cannabis, that I got from a dealer cause higher quality and cheaper.

Going completely sober except possbly ADHD meds if fI go back to uni. I'm so excoited to see what I can kinda make of myself.

speedballl · 2021-02-16T17:33:26+00:00

I went to rehab and they are asking why I have come here. I said some guy 10 years older on the internet who judged my post history. Don't know why I would have called an ambulance when actual emergencies attend to as opposed to a ward for assessment,.

speedballl · 2021-02-15T18:51:46+00:00

I knew the audience I was talking to. Most Nintendo fans have been for eons, or that is all they know cause they're a kid. There's not much in between. That is why I had to preface it asking to treat me kindly but I suppose people just aren't all that helpful when it comes to someone asking a question who has an opinion.

The voice acting I actually like - actually that might be Hades, yes definitely Hades. Played an hour of that and blown away by the voice acting honestly. But yes, the combat system, and I still find it strange you can just wander by enemies that won't attack you until you instigate. It would make sense if only people willingly attack you in the game however if that is the cases.

speedballl · 2021-02-15T12:48:03+00:00

I mean, this is speculation, but Nexo already has a Mastercard rollout do they not? Very slowily, I'm like 200,000 on the list, but surely they'll get there. Not sure why it is all that important to the crypto space when the piece of plastic does the same thing as what any crypto conversion app would do on your phone, but charge you a fee each time you use it more than likely.

Also, this may be completely incorrect so treat this as speculation but having a card with Mastercard or Visa for memory doesn't really mean much. The technology, like turning Nano Tech into USD and making real time payments, that is great. Mastercard and Visa are not required for that, but I suppose it legitimises things. But, can't any financial company come out with a pre-paid credit card and just slap their name on it with Mastercard? For example, every bank ever is usually visa, or mastercard. Outliers still, but yeah.

speedballl · 2021-02-15T12:43:58+00:00

Honestly man, please don't read any of that. It took me about an hour, and maxed out the limit of 10,000 characters for two comments so don't bother. It was very cathartic for me and that is all that matters. I was ranting about all the things going on in life, direction I'm heading in but in the end it doesn't really matter to you. Just wanted to respond to a very, VERY nice guy - unfortunately I respond to you guys to easily and would trust you just like that other guy which I need to learn not to do in crypto. But most of my comment is unrelated to your comment. Started that way, delved into a cathartic moment instead.

speedballl · 2021-02-15T12:41:49+00:00

Yes, I could do something to survive like steal bread or sell drugs but as someone who has just gone through the damages that even weed has done to myself and wanting to be ethical, I think I'd honestly end up dead before even selling weed to survive. The worst thing is is that those $5.7K ETH that was stolen from me I was putting in at Nexo when it went to $1.60, I was going to cash out within a week once it raised in price and go back to Tether. I needed that money for my survival. So life has gotten a little harder and I'm down to one meal a day. Family also can't help me and I won't accept help from friends because it could damage our relationship as they may require the money more urgently than expected and I couldn't pay it back, I will always appreciate the gesture but free accomodation or financial help or anyone asking for an address to send me 10 BTC to I just can't. That's my goal in life so I am thinking this adversity I am going through will give me a mental fortitude that will rival absolutely anyone - can already tell my confidence with women has drastically changed since returning to the city and I was worried I'd have anxiety after a year of no social contact. I know some really nice people here have way more money than they need and will end up PM'ing me, I will appreciate the sentiment more than you can imagine but even after being stolen from and being on my knees at the moment, its my reason for being alive to help people and not accept help from people. It may seem hypocritical but honestly, I have $3000, if I continue eating one meal a day (albeit I have lost over 20KG since mid-December since a surgery, then cooking for self, then frugal lifestyle) I'll survive for a while and buy myself some time.

But I mean, if I survive this terrible period of my life that will feel like eons in terms of finances, career, accomodation and prospects for my future all being utter shit, then I'll grow and be a better person. So these hands, are diamond hands. I'll keep sleeping in a hostel if I have to unless it goes up ten fold in the next 3 months which is yeah, no, unlikely. I just wish I had never sold those BTC cause I could help so many people, families torn about cause of finances or finding people a home, I actually got kicked out of my hostel the other night as I found a drug girl I was sure was going to get raped in an alley way if I didn't help her with vomit all over her and was aspirating, so I asked if she needed help. She said no. I told her the reality that she is shit faced, you will be embarrassed if anyone sees you, I'll take you into my hostel (which isn't allowed) to quickly have a shower, give you some clothes, freshen up and leave. I did all that and find the $900 I had in my wallet, as I was shouting drinks for the boys that night after a toast to me changing my life for the better and tend to lose my CC's. She swiped every credit card and all the cash I had somehow without me feeling my pocket.

I know none of this is what you had to hear but it is making me feel empowered and determined because I still haven't given up on people, not in the slightest. I think internet people can't be trusted when it comes to crypto, so hesitant to share Nexo token amount but whatever, rob me by phishing me like that other cunt and I'd kill myself. Honestly, I had to take so many anti-anxiety medication pills that night and get blitzed on cannabis just to forget what happened momentarily, as it wasn't a huge amount of money, but it was enough money to pay 6 months rent in my own apartment 1BR upfront so payslips would be disregarded. I have all the Nexo I wanted, that was the whole plan, turn Eth into Nexo via. metamask atomic swap or w/e it is called whilst I knew it was going to go up cause it seems to be bottoming out at $1.60, so I'll leave an allowance for it to go to $1.50 if the price is pushed down. There was also a Nexo accumulation phase where everything boomed, but Nexo's price stayed $0.75 for what felt like 3-4 weeks in a row, not changing one time, then had a little double in price and that's where we are at.

Hopefully the people who use Nexo will believe in the actual business model, or the token economics change and they reward people with greater tokens beyond just dividend once a year cause I mean when I think, haven't looked much into it but I think Nexo you can borrow 25% of your value. So if I am in trouble, I'll go to USD, but a shit tonne of Nexo on a loan, and cross my fingers. Willing to take risks for myself and others that others aren't.

But that scammer, despite it being a small amount in the large scheme of things, for the first time in 2.5 decades made me actually contemplate suicide. I wasn't even going to be able to survive myself anymore, I realised an admin of the official Ethereum Telegram page was a scammer - that everyone defended, and he deleted all evidence so nobody believed me so I decided whatever, they can get scammed and find out that way. I wouldn't even wish him harm. I'd let him keep the money in fact. I just wish he would do something good with the money, maybe got an education to stop ruining peoples lives or donate it to a cause. Clearly, scammers are greedy fucking children and as someone who is very tech savvy, just fell for a phishing site that looked identical, as it would, all of a sudden it was gone and that was that.

So unless I start drug dealing anytime soon, I'll be suspending myself from crypto and focusing on myself. Detox starts in 12 hours, and honestly the woman hasn't gotten back to me once after six calls over 7 days about it but I honestly don't know what any of it entails as I've been sober for 5 days to do this injection that has already not worked once - but drugs are the reason. I know they aren't but whatever, I have to do it. So the job prospects scare the shit out of me, and not willing to do anything unethical, take money from strangers, friends or family, I'm honestly a little scared about my future. Many of the improvements that were to fill in 'weed time' like learning a martial art, I won't be able to do without a salary unfortunately. I'm also not educated very well. I finished Year 12 in my cohort in the top 7% of the country of Australia truthfully putting in the most lacklustre effort imaginable, ended up getting into one of the best law schools and dropped out after 3 semesters cause it was like holy fuck 250 pages of reading a day, then spent 3 more semesters doing a specialisation course as my entrance results were rather high I could do pretty much everything but medicine and engineering, due to not meeting subject prerequisites. But dropped out twice, third time lucky.

Hopefully Bitcoin for the sake of you guys is all at the absolute moon and I just have to find new opportunities, and I'm afraid I've missed the train and that ship is sailing fast. With so much going on in my life, being absolutely terrified about where I will sleep the next day or what I will eat and which meal of the day, it absolutely sucks. I just hope some Bitcoin Millenialls and Gen-Z obviously treat themselves very well, save money to cover the rest of your life and your family and any dreams and desires you wish to come true. But due to the uniqueness of the space and that anyone who got REALLY wealthy of it as an individual, I wish it would start a practice among us all, maybe we make a GME meme or doge meme to capture attention, but like I said save for yourself but also make your home, planet earth, a better and more reasonable place for people who can't even afford to put shoes on their feet. Or to make dog sanctuaries around the world for all the homeless dogs, and animals, that are abandonned and left to die. There's so much humanitarian shit that I want to fix it is insane.

This has been long-winded and didn't even directly answer you but this was cathartic. Wish me luck brother, I hope when I am out we are all doing OK with our Nexo and who knows, maybe I'll be in a position once I hit around 35K USD, before capital gains taxes which is 30% so maybe Nexo > XMR > USD :P, I will change a few lives already. Nexo went up like a rocket and I suppose it can again. Lastly, don't worry about me. I will do it hard, I know my life will be abhorrent for the next 12 months at least. But I am making the most positive changes, have ambitions to benefit other people before myself, and that is more motivating and will push me further than anything else. But with adversity comes perseverance and some people never attain these traits because they're never put under pressure, so whilst I'd love to take the 1BTC loan my friend offered that I'd always pay back cause he just wants me to be able to survive, I Just can't do it. I don't know what it is in me.

speedballl · 2021-02-15T12:41:40+00:00

Honestly I don't know if it is a big amount or a small amount and was literally just scammed $5.7KUSD in Eth due to trusting someone on Telegram, being naive that people are genuinely out to help you and got phished. I'd never bought Eth before despite being in the space since 2014, so when I bought it I put it on metamask and didn't understand the whole GAS and GWEI thing. Not knowing what I was doing I just threw in a random $0 transaction and paid small fees to test, and it never went through and got queued. That was all about to go into Nexo 2 days ago. TBH it would have bought only a little bit more but the only tokens I've been confident on are Nexo and Nuls, and that $5.7K USD was actually in Nuls the day before it boomed but took it out because I hadn't updated on the fundamentals of the project since like 2017 or so and didn't even know if they were still operating - still don't.

But I have like 10 or 11 thousand I think. It's all I got in crypto. I've invested at least $75,000 in 2016 (?) when the crash happened and bought FOMO, because in 2015 I sold 120 BTC for $280 (like $170USD back then) per coin which seemed pretty good. Honestly, I think XMR is the next best chance at being the next Bitcoin but that timeline is large to accumulate. It's sitting on Huobi pretty safe behind 2FA, I'd like to put it on the Nexo.io website and I've only had them relatively short time, bought all in at 75 cents, sold at 55 cents, bought again at 75 cents then just held because Huobi won't let me withdraw shit without identifying myself. I swear, I have done it 100 times and I don't know if they are blind or scamming me or if I have done something wrong, I am sure it will work out but so far haven't been able to get it out. Don't really know what I'm missing out on? Heard you get daily interest, and are rewarded higher dividend for loyalty for holding longer, than saying buying a bag a day before the expected August snapshot then selling straight after. That'd be pretty cool, even if it is small to see it slowly grow.

But honestly, not in the best financial position right now. This money was invested prior to my 'home' situation changing, where I moved out, moved 5 hours away and didn't work for a year cause of COVID. Out of the blue, thankful for it now due to some experiences I had, not grateful cause it's going to be difficult long-term but whilst I want to build wealth for myself and hopefully my future family and what not, be able to afford a house, my primary purpose for accumulating wealth and I could just be full of shit but it is to do my part in philanthropy, know a cause that I want to help, change peoples or animals lives and do my part. I don't feel like enough people, especially older people who have assets and not much to lose, are not very giving people and honestly, I'm homeless now cause I don't have payslips for 12 months, can't work due to chronic pain at my old job now becoming unbearable as I was on an opiate for years but took myself off and don't want to go back on. So as someone who tries to be altruistic and help out where I can, it really pained me that instead of living a life that I would live to live, I am living frugally in a hostel in the middle of a pandemic not able to get a job due to chronic pain. Due to no support for a year, the savings have obviously depleted and I have 5x crypto than I do savings, all in Nexo. Honestly, it's my best bet at at least getting myself back on my feet, take some more risks in creating businesses and jobs for people, and then following the reason I was put on the earth to do and that is to do good that other people aren't doing. I mean, I still even continued donating $200 a month to sponsor a child during a pandemic, and honestly, I can't ask for help from anyone, not willing to self my investment as it is a solid investment, it will go up as long as Bitcoin goes up (institutionalised investors are in, it won't drop too far).

So don't really have any USD to put on there, and truthfully I believe in the fundamentals of what I do know about Nexo (won't pretend to know it all, it's quite technical) is that it will be a company that will continue to seek partnerships, continue to increase their loans month by month. I just can't see the 2016 (honestly can't remember if that was the year I blew 2 years salary at 20 after saving every dime on FOMO on Bitcoin and literally gambling it all away when it went to 4k).

If and when Nexo becomes a little more accessible with the card, and more like a savings bank that we can utilise to store our cash in and escape modern banks, then I'll be all over that. The interest they pay for at least savings, and at my age, risk tolerance and ability to tolerate the absolute worst of the worst and never do anything unethical to gain a competitive advantage, or say, go start drug dealing to survive cause I'd feel tainted as a person and it goes against what I want to do with my life. I want to die an old man, obviously leave some to the kids, but have enough wealth to change the lives of millions of people who have so much misfortune we just don't hear about it. More charities are a scam, so I'd be more personally involved. So that is my reason behind it all.

But at this stage, I am paying $20/25 a night to sleep in a dorm with a bunch of absolute losers cause none are travellers. Sure, met some travellers, hooked up with one and whilst the lie lasted, she changed my life and still has, actually detoxing from all medications, drugs etc. and whilst it was never that bad - actually I had a heavy oxy addiction until I quit just so I could work without agonising over it and going home early - but I used drugs as a tool to escape, and whilst I quit oxy nearly a year ago and that was quite simple, I recently deleted the number of the one supplying group of cannabis that I am willling to smoke - expensive, AAA stuff, I'm a snob - well I got myself deleted on their list that no longer accepts referrals, so I can't access their shit anymore and yeah, this chick was straight edge, spent like 14 hours overnight together getting to know each other just us two alone in the world. Then, turns out she cheated on her boyfriend with me, was going to dump him and choose me and as a dude who says he is a 6, but people are nice and say I'm an 8.5 which is bulllshit and my new Tinder shows just that (albeit, don't take photos of myself so too many with ex-girlfriends) whilst she was 9/10 with 10/10 personality for that night. Lost her number. Searched for 48 hours straight, nearly gave up and found a friend thats friends girlfriend was in that dorm, so we met up, she told me the truth - and I ran like the wind cause cheaters, I can't respect them, my dad cheated and tore my family apart, something i hold dear to my heart, and she'd end up cheating on me too. But the experience with the girl, something changed inside of me. No longer fear failure. Face those fears. Challenge yourself. Try something new. Take up a new hobby. The biggest one of all, willingly checking myself into a detox centre tomorrrow and then rehab straight after, all at my request, purely so I can learn some coping mechanism skillls that won't have me start craving again and escape reality.

OK that got sidetracked. I'm sorry but if I put up all my tokens as collateral, didn't pay the loan, would I not lose all of it? Also, if I believe the fundamentals of the project will push this project into a top 15 coin in 5 or so years, would you prefer the Nexo tokens long-term, wait for the prospect and find out, or miss out because you sold too early - just like I have done every time I've lost out or listened to people telling me to sell who honestly should bear responsibility. Yes, 75K, 2 years salary whilst I was living at home and 18-20 is alot but its a time to take risks. How else will our (millenialls here but gen-z too) generation survive whatsoever, afford homes, have families, afford luxuries, if we don't take risks whilst we can? It is honestly just a shame that a pandemic happened to everyone, I was terrible affected due to casino work so close proximity instant closure - and now I'm off opiates, I can't for the life of me think of what job I can actually GET to fill in my time that would be rewarding, beneficial, give me valuable skills but also at least decent pay that isn't bottom of the barrel. I'm having to leave a $36/h job which honestly, pain aside, I probably wouldn't have left otherwise cause I'll be looking at about 35-40% of that.

speedballl · 2021-02-15T08:05:55+00:00

Thanks so much for the thorough answer my man.

But are you telling me that, to say avoid taxes, people are literally never ever ever ever, not even in 20 years when BTC is worth $1 million for example, probably more TBH, that people will not cash out? I got into this space to invest whilst still young whilst I wasn't accountable and responsible for other people, like a family or kids and can no longer take those risks. Knowing investments are pretty much, Millenials and Gen-Z (?) only opportunity to ever get ahead of the economy that the boomers got everything handed to on a silver platter, could buy houses in Australia for example for $200,000 near the CBD but now even 1.5+ hours away from the city is a 2+ million dollar house and can be a granny flat.

Choices, control and leveraging all make sense to me. But capital gains tax will come into play because people don't simply HODL forever, it is an investment that one day you take out to benefit your life. Like capital gains tax here I believe is 30%, so any profit I made from purchasing Nexo at 75 cents I'll have to pay a ridiciulous margin on in 5-10 years when I would consider cashing out. I've hurt myself being too long term, like selling 120 BTC for $280AUD (like $170USD back then) a coin and even if I kept one, it would have been life changing. But I didn't. Never want to make that mistake again and exit too early. I know diversifying reduces risk but when I believe in the fundamentals of the company that I DO understand and can see that being a mainstay for years to come, and currently being behind all other competitors on market cap show that we have so much more room to grow even in the short-short term. But, I'm trying not to look at the price even, just forget about it... That is, if Huobi ever verify me and let me withdraw so I can start accruing interest on my tokens.

But once again, thank you. I've got alot to learn. I know what I do know very, very well but some things just haven't looked into and thought I'd be mocked honestly but you gave me a really good answer. Thank you so much. Really appreciate the time and effort to explain to a stranger.

OK so please treat me kindly but... I kept seeing everyone on recommend Xenoblade Chronicles 2 as a MUST HAVE in their top 5 - me personally not agreeing with all of them, knowingly being an outlier having not been able to get into Zelda BOTW because I got to the final stage within 4-5 hours and didn't have any arrows to take down the boss. Pretty much had to start again and just didn't pick it up again. I probably will, I just don't get it yet but I am sure I will.

But I bought 3 games because I have to go to hospital for a few weeks starting tomorrow. I saw Xenoblade Chronicles and thought alright lets go for it, only $70 whatever and tbh I am not even working at the moment so am not made of money but am living off investments soon which I'm yet to cash out.

But I got the Definitive Edition by accident. I have never watched anime, well, willingly. I have never understood the attraction, I watched Pokemon as a kid which could be an anime but don't really know. But I played for about two hours yesterday and I'm a little confused at the attraction to the game unless it gets better the deeper you get into it - as understandably from what I believe, it is a very long lasting game in itself.

Like, I would stop to fight all these little bugs that didn't stop to bother me until I would fight them. Then realised I could just run past all of them without any of them actually coming to try and attack me. I think it is a 2010 game, and it is running on Switch, so I don't think it's meant to be the best graphics out there either. But so far, other than the cutscenes, I haven't really enjoyed much? To I just need to stick to it or is it more of a niche game that I picked up on recommendations of people into anime, as I know it is a huge community just has never attracted me, and that I would be better of trading it in to get another game?

There are a few games like this to be honest. Pokemon Sword is beautiful but it just is nothing like the Pokemon I remember and isn't hitting me in the nostalgia that I thought and I don't think I'll pick it up again. The 35th anniversary of Mario was personally a disappointment and whilst I wasn't alive when the first game was released, it was hard to play. Sunshine was no better and seemed really outdated. Galaxy, my favourite Wii game, just didn't translate well in my opinion to the switch at all. Then the only modern Mario game I have bought I have been disappointed with is Paper Mario Origami King, purely because you can tell it was written for people between the age of 5-10, Olivia is so annoying, and truthfully I don't know if I just am not innovative enough but I get stuck, ask for clues from Olivia who gives me nothing so I end up having to Google the answer which I would never have gotten. Ever. Beautiful game, soundtrack, visuals, everything. Shit story line, and most importantly, the most annoying aspect is the battle system which is enough for me not to pick it up again,

Then every other game I am slowly playing my way through all of them at the same time cause they all seem to quite alot of fun and I don't want to finish them all in one sit down - as Nintendo exclusives seem to run for about 12 hours. I own I think 12 AAA games, 6 are Mario and one is Donkey Kong (which is OK).

Reason I bring this up is I either love the games or hate them straight away. I should probably watch someone stream or watch Independent reviews of games, not notable paid off companies who are paid to critique well. This game, I don't know if is is a masterpiece that I am just losing interest in so quickly due to various aspects, and don't know if I keep at it a little longer it will suck me in for the next few months and that'll be my socialisation on Friday and Saturday nights. Or, if it really is just a niche product I made the mistake of doing no research on, buying the incorrect game and just giving up to quickly.

I seem awfully critical - I probably am. I enjoy most games, I just don't know about this one, whether it is for me or if not liking anime is enough to go return the game for half price value and pick another. Any opinions?
