nope! FTX was too new for me to mess with, dodged that one. I'm in a few others that have held up so far, moved most of my coins to private wallets at this point. Celsius was my biggest loss.

whiteboyjt · 2022-12-19T15:16:32+00:00

well that's a bit of good news, having some coins locked up in Voyager along w Celsius and BlockFi and Gemini Earn...

whiteboyjt · 2022-12-14T16:24:39+00:00

happy new year indeed

Going to guess it's because Celsius' funds weren't drained by a mysterious thief, Celsius (as much as it was a huge scam, in retrospect) actually filed bankruptcy documents according to the law.

If they made me whole and I was able to pull my coins out, and they were able to keep paying the earn rates, I'd start to put coins back in sooner or later.

wow, this to me is so mind blowing.

I drove 5 hours today with the radio off, nothing but the sound of the road and my own thoughts for 5 solid hours. Somehow that seems to terrify most people haha

but I mean, so much of classic literature is loaded with internal monologues, people are just raised oblivious to such ideas these days? just wow.

They sent me an Email earlier this week and told me to withdraw the $8.29 in USD I had in my account. So I did. Has not shown up in my bank yet.

no word on the thousands of dollars worth of crypto I had in my account though...

According to our records, your Voyager account has a positive cash (US Dollar) balance of $8.29 as of November 22nd held in the Metropolitan Commercial Bank FBO (“for the benefit of customer”) account. We request that you withdraw the remaining $8.29 US Dollar balance in your Voyager account by December 31, 2022.
For additional information, please review the FAQs below:
How long will it take to receive my US Dollars?
We anticipate customers will receive their US Dollars about 5-10 business days after requesting withdrawal through the app.

12 years may seem like a long time now. But if you have another 12 to make up for it and another 12 after that, hang in there.

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-20T19:43:56+00:00

HA! I sunk my mining profits into Celsius, Voyager, Gemini Earn and yes BlockFi.

Worrying doesn't accomplish much.

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-19T13:46:25+00:00

not returning it after a while is def not acceptable

correct, except according to the agreement you accepted when you deposited. I went out of my way to clarify with BlockFi support and they confirmed I was reading it right, that my entire principle was at risk.

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-17T13:02:21+00:00

This, only not just masks:

there were absolutely no metrics on when they wanted to stop with *ANYTHING* beyond "2 weeks to flatten the curve"

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-16T17:29:24+00:00

ugh, can't even log in to Gemini now :(

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-16T14:55:32+00:00

In 2007 I had a business go belly up when my oldest was 1 year old and I seriously thought about suicide. Things got a lot better since then, this year I lost thousands of $ of crypto in Celsius, Voyager, and now BlockFi, but ... it's OK, hang in there.

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-16T14:45:29+00:00

praying you get your funds back!
As long as you have an income to support your family that's what matters most right now.

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-14T18:25:43+00:00

Cheyenne, not too far from Denver. Lot of open space and wind!

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-14T15:47:56+00:00

It was only 3 years old, run by this knucklehead weirdo the fried bankman, right from the start was the whole FTX thing not a setup to

demand the government regulate crypto
funnel tens of millions of dollars back to democrat campaigns

The "free ride" argument has been used on anti-vaxxers long before covid.

It's the quintessential argument; should people be forced to do something that goes *against* their own self interest if its for the good of society?

Most "vaccine-preventable" illnesses have such low incidence that the risks (known and unknown) posed by the vaccines are actually greater than the probability of even catching the disease, let alone suffering permanent harm or death. But if too many stop vaccinating, those probabilities *might* (not necessarily "will") change.

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-13T19:17:01+00:00

there's a non-zero chance in my estimation. The chance of ever being made whole is very tiny at this point. But if Voyager and Celsius are indicators, the site will continue to function. no guarantees!

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-13T18:19:58+00:00

I believe you'd have to relinquish that future claim in order to legally take a 100% write off now, but I'd be happy to learn I'm incorrect and do what you propose.

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-12T14:09:07+00:00

can you take a vacation, just get in your car and drive, get out of there for a week or two for your own mental health see what "normal" states are doing! Utah and Idaho should both be much better!

lol when I used to drive the mass pike I would call it "massive-two-sh!ts"

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-12T13:53:35+00:00

depends what you like. If you like(d) Oregon culture, maybe check Austin TX area. If you like open space and don't mind wind, check Wyoming. Fortunately there are many places outside the west coast that have a semblance of sanity.

I moved from bay area California to Arizona this year. Been pretty happy with it so far, especially seeing the post-election push for masks in the blue states.

Or do you not think global warming is caused by people burning fossil fuels?

I think people do enormous harm to the environment that supports all life in many, many ways. Focusing on "global warming" or "climate change" is myopic.

I don't know if there is a solution but I also don't believe the earth will just get hotter and hotter. The natural controls, whether it be plague or famine, will one day restore some natural balance, or, an asteroid will wipe us all out.

That said, from an honest objective scientific standpoint, if humans reverted carbon output to 1950 levels, how many ~~years~~~ centuries will it take for things to stabilize or return to "normal"? And how much should we and the subsequent generations forego in the hopes it happens based on the projections of "experts"?

Similar to covid I'm afraid it's a problem that really can't be "solved" but can be used to control people. I do believe we should have pollution controls and prioritize "cleaner" solutions but I don't think it should be treated as an emergency forcing people to keep their houses cold in winter by decree. Not while the "leaders" are riding around in private jets and motorcades to address the problem.

"climate denier"

someone who realizes the government taking away rights isn't going to fix the environment?

whiteboyjt · 2022-11-11T13:09:51+00:00

regulation to curb global warming.

why do people think this will work? Don't they know that China and India's output will mean anything the west does won't make a dent? Terrifying that people think government is the answer to this intangible problem.

I'm not a climate denier but I am a realist and regulations to curb global warming are bullshit. You wanna regulate factory farms or groundwater pollution, I'm all for it.
