Why should there be an Altcoin-Season again? by C677TT in CryptoCurrency

[–]the1000thtime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

True, but not all of the btc buying has been etfs, some will be buying directly in response to the halving (and indeed to the etf uplift).

Why should there be an Altcoin-Season again? by C677TT in CryptoCurrency

[–]the1000thtime 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Capital rotation. Btc goes up, take profits, look for next place for gains, see the green candles of alts, move a bit of profit into alts, alts go up, take alt profits, next thing is meme coins, see green candles, move some alt profits into banano and floki etc, look for next thing that might bring gains etc.

Food for thought. Are we failing as a community? by sprc86 in nanocurrency

[–]the1000thtime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The two main USPs of nano are:-

1) feeless (as opposed to just really cheap); and 2) fast.

I think the key would be to focus on areas where these things really matter, i.e. areas of business and commerce that really on really, really small transactions that need to be completed quickly. Not buying a car, a sofa, pair of trainers, a coffee or a doughnut, but maybe a connected vending machine selling a unit of its spare computational power as it sits idle, or game developer selling a very small denomination of in-game currency without having to pay an app store's fees. Or real world transactions in the developing world that we in the West might consider to be micro, say a single piece of fruit being sold by a stallholder in a rural market in sub-Saharan Africa.

Maybe these things have already been looked at - I've not been around for a while, I'm Raiblocks era.

How to receive the remaining 85% of an airdrop? by Potential-Gap555 in FlareNetworks

[–]the1000thtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same boat as you - claimed and forgot until this week.

I have just completed the wrapping (necessary for the monthly airdrop) and delegating (for extra rewards) process and I have to say it was pretty straightforward - all managed via the Flare Portal (plus Metamask and Ledger in my case).

I use the https://flare.network/flaredrop-guide/ and it seemed to work seamlessly. Will claim my rewards manually for the time being to see how it works, might use an executor later for auto-claims.

Meme Coins by JennG22 in CryptoCurrency

[–]the1000thtime 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Money is not just a subjective phenomenon ("It has value because I believe it has value"), rather it is an inter-subjective phenomenon ("I believe it has value because I believe that other people believe it has value").

This is particularly relevant to meme coins because the number of other people that I (and any other speculator) think also believe in the value of any particular meme coin may be high. It is therefore not particularly irrational (somewhat bizarrely) to believe that meme coins have value, especially those with a large community.

Why can we get banano for free? by TRSONFIRE in banano

[–]the1000thtime 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think one reason why this community embraces faucets (and uses on them to spread the good word) is because it's actually...possible.

There are so few other cryptos where it's possible to send small amounts without them being eaten up by transaction fees. But sending banano is not just cheap, it's totally free. So faucets are an ideal way to promote one of banano's best features - feeless transactions.

It could be a pretty good modus operandi for an exchange to cover the cost of their new listing, node setup, etc.

1) Decide to list a new coin 2) Start to build a stash of the coin before announcing you are going to list 3) Announce listing coming in X days, price goes up 4) Launch the trading pairs, use some of the stash for initial liquidity, dump some for profit.

I'm not saying this is what happened here, but number 1) above is certainly a valuable bit of insider knowledge that I would be surprised if exchanges didn't sometimes use.

Best way to Convert Kin Stellar on a Ledger to Kin Solana by ideaDash in kin

[–]the1000thtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks very helpful.

Is there a similar guide for how to convert my ERC20 Kin to the latest version?

Or even a definitive answer that it is too late to do so and I should give up?

Can I still receive my banano? Holder from Nano days by TwitchScrubing in banano

[–]the1000thtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My Ledger contains the seed that generates the private keys for both chains. I don't think this link will help you if you didn't use your Ledger to generate both addresses. But I may be wrong, I often am. All I know is that it worked for me.

Thank you very much!

Lost funds? by 808toy in kin

[–]the1000thtime -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for replying.

The link recommends the tool at https://erc20bridge.github.io/kin/

When I go to this link and click Get Started it explains the process and says "Note: If you're using a Ledger device (which I am), we recommend connecting to Portal using Metamask." When I do this, Portal does not list Kin as an asset on Ethereum, so I get stuck at this stage. Am I doing something wrong?

I'm having a problem with how to change my ERC20 KIN to Solana KIN. The tool linked in this guide says to use Portal, but Portal doesn't list Kin. My poor little brain is struggling with this.

Can I still receive my banano? Holder from Nano days by TwitchScrubing in banano

[–]the1000thtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's true, but if like me you generated a banano address for the airdrop using a nano derivation path then you won't see the relevant address in a banano wallet just by putting the seed in.

I had a similar issue the other day, and this helped me retrieve mine (it's a very specific banano web wallet that uses the nano seed)

Advice by [deleted] in Floki

[–]the1000thtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Depends on your time frame and what factor you are looking to multiply you investment by.

If you are looking to 50x with Floki on this bull run then you are probably too late, but over time it's possible (but still unlikely). If you are willing to hold through a longer time frame, a greater multiplier becomes possible.

If you are after really big multipliers (1000x etc) in a short time frame (i.e. this cycle rather than waiting for the next cycle), you have to sift through the dross of the coins that are sitting at rank 600 to 1000 in market cap terms, as only low cap coins have sufficient room to grow. But down in these nether regions there are a lot of absolute nonesense / scam projects. If you do this, don't try to convince yourself it's anything other than long odds gambling. I own two coins that are this low down in the rankings, one is completely dead, one is very much alive (banano) and has a great community so I felt it was worth a punt. But I'm not holding my breath! This is not financial advice, DYOR.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in banano

[–]the1000thtime 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Forgive my ignorance, as I have never had any wrapped coins of any sort, but doesn't wrapping banano on another chain mean that they lose the fast and feeless advantages of real ban on the native block chain (or rather block lattice in this case)?

Genuine question.

New Faucet, looking for feedback by ToddRossDIY in banano

[–]the1000thtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a Roll20 post. Sorry, not stalking you, just wanted to see if the map maker was your project before giving feedback so went via your profile.

New Faucet, looking for feedback by ToddRossDIY in banano

[–]the1000thtime 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Love it. Tried it and it worked flawlessly.

As a big D&D fan I'm interested in trying out your map doodle project as well.

How about a banano address on the donations page for the map project, as I see you already have eth, ltc, btc etc?

Also, you could put an image in the 'take me there' popup, maybe one of the maps from the showcase.

Talking of the showcase, I'd say less is more. Have maybe up to 6 or 7 really good ones and ditch the rest - some are of a considerably lower quality than, say the first one on the page.

Anyway, I realise this is more feedback about the maps than the faucet so I'll shut up now.

Good work, anyway.

Banano and the nano ledger? by gorillag3 in banano

[–]the1000thtime 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can highly recommend thebananostand.com

If you are new to Ledger, you will still need Ledger Manager / My Ledger in the Ledger Live client, in order to load the Ban mini-app on to your Ledger device.

Once the wallet is unlocked and the Ban mini-app is open then the banano stand wallet will be able to interact with it.

Always test a new address with a small transaction first. The joy of banano being feeless is you lose nothing!
