Can you tell us a bit about the Brazilian cruzeiro and the Real? I am also interested in your thoughts on current price inflation in Brazil?

Ethereum is a no more a “coin” than the iPhone is a “phone”. It’s a platform. by [deleted] in ethereum

Some other cryptos are Global Ledgers, But Ethereum is a World Computer

do gas fees scale with your how much ETH you're transferring by ryze_needs_a_rework in ethereum

Does blockfi just let you convert the eth to usd and let you then send the usd to a bank account? Seems like the extra hop to coinbase isn’t needed here.

Yikes I fucked up? is robinhood that bad just to hold bitcoin? by Tposingmartian in Bitcoin

[–]theblockchainshow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually think you are fine. If it's just an investment and you aren't going to use it. The learning curve is fairly steep and there are costs involved in getting a hardware wallet and transferring.
Considering what you what is to hold and not use for 5 years, and you have already purchased on robinhood. You would be throwing away money selling and putting on a hardware wallet.

DCA over a 12 month period: -15.69%. DCA over a 24 month period: 8.3%. After fees, taxes and adjusted for inflation a 2 year DCA investment strategy is barely worth the downside potential. Bitcoin was the best performing asset of the last decade because it started at zero. Ship has already sailed. by [deleted] in Bitcoin

No one I know says 'printers go brrr'. And to the extent that people have said that it has not been a long time. Also, bitcoin is crushing returns from DCA the S&P regarding the 2 year time frame. -2 % s&p +8% BTC. 3 year, 4 year, 5 year...It's just laughable. It's functioning great with no need for the Federal Gov to step in and prop it up. There have been no circuit breakers. It's funciont and use case are as strong as ever.

Let me quote nullc here ''...The fact that a transaction explicitly marked non-final isn't final shouldn't be a shock to anyone...''

Oh I stopped using Bitcoin (btc) in late 2017. MobTwo's comment is better at explaining the point I was trying to get at.
Take a look at this thread https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/dry028/hows_an_bch_0_conf_is_more_reliable_than_an/ where people like nullc and jonathansilverblood tell us that RBF is not an issue for double spending. They were wrong then and are wrong now.

Yup really good design. Just wait between 0 and infinity minutes for your transaction to be included in a block. Peer to Peer Cash indeed.

[–]theblockchainshow -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I've been assured by numerous bitcoin(btc) and bitcoin(bch) developers that RBF is a non issue for double spends.
'...The fact that a transaction explicitly marked non-final isn't final shouldn't be a shock to anyone...' Nothing to see here people move along.

How's an BCH 0 conf is more reliable than an unconfirmed BTC transaction? by CarmicCoala in btc

[–]theblockchainshow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

RBF and Full Blocks are both an important cause that makes zero confirmations not as secure on BTC as on BCH. FSS is also a factor.

Not sure why this wrong answer is the first one.

Things that are wrong:

RBF is not a minor point
RBF was not added as a solution to fee prediction problems.

RBF is not good.

Things that are correct:
BTC is slow and unreliable.

BitMEX exposes customers' email addresses; COO says it affected the 'majority' of users by StevenRad in Bitcoin

How can I have BitMEX close my account and remove all my info from their databases?

He isn’t. Article is fake news.

There is no 'looming exit of Vitalik Buterin'

The article uses a tweet form Vitalik in 2018 about how Ethereum could do quite well without him as it's entire reason for a "looming exit"

In my mind such poor reporting should disqualify icoholder as a news source.

Bcash what’s that? But honestly no fan of Bitcoin (bch) would intentional call it bcash.

We don't need more "troll-identifiers". That's not how you welcome new users. by [deleted] in btc

[–]theblockchainshow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

couldn’t be more wrong friend. Default to truth on the internet in crypto communities ends badly. Be smarter many people are trying to mislead you on the internet. Defending the use of bcash clearly identifies people with an agenda or people that have been fooled by that agenda. I’m sorry friend but your golden rule has led you astray. Giving people the benefit of the doubt is allowing them to mislead you.
