I looked at wallets from 5+ years ago... I have over 10bnb locked up in a contract I set for 40 years (smh I know), I see reminders of all the crypto traders I know who are probably long gone now who used to be friends who I am out of contact with or are probably gone forever, I see all the money (over 100k) destroyed by ftx and sam altmans trading against his own customers. I haven't looked in a long time because it hurts so much. I'd rather be a crypto noob because then I'd be blissfully ignorant to how brutal things get. I had a big trump coin wallet that revived me for a bit because I got in early enough but as we all know the melania coin made it draw down. I tried to rebuild again with a hype long but 10/10 destroyed that too. For the first time ever I have pretty much given up hope in crypto and I've been in it since early 2010s. I'm not saying it'll never pump again a bit, but I don't think there will ever be another mega bull run for it like we have had in the past. I am pretty much zeroed out and have to become a normie now (and I have nothing to show for resume too). At least it was fun in the moment. submitted by /u/Lost_Foot_6301 [link] [Kommentare]

crypto newb here. i’m not trying to be sarcastic. bitcoin has been around for years, but i still can not wrap my head around its value as a currency. there is the trading aspect, some have made millions and some have lost millions. but outside the trading sphere, what value does it have? how long is it actually going to be around? and what about all the shitcoins? are they NFTs all over again? the best i can understand it, is that it is like kohl’s cash, only traded in one venue. what am i missing? submitted by /u/No_Type1123 [link] [Kommentare]

Worth $271,170,213.57 at the moment I’m typing this btw. submitted by /u/GreatKirisuna [link] [Kommentare]

So, I used to use Drift Protocol for perps trading and ended up “losing” the entirety of my balance after the Drift exploit… I’ve been using Hyperliquid since then but don’t trust it 100%, same deal, you deposit balance into the platform… would you think this is any safer since it doesn’t run on SOL? … thoughts on using Jupiter instead?? submitted by /u/andyjrivas [link] [Kommentare]

Like many people, I've been watching STRC struggle to hold its $100 level. I believe the mechanism intended to drive the price back to $100 has a design flaw that's causing it to fail to return to $100 target. There are two types of people in the STRC market — short term dividend arbitragers, and longer-term holders. The problem is that dividend arbitragers have been driving up supply of STRC to levels higher than the longer-term holders can consume. Each time an ex-dividend date occurs, dividend arbitragers buy STRC, hold it until the ex-dividend date, and sell it, with the aim of selling for price difference less than the amount they gain from collecting the dividend. They can do this with leverage using their broker's margin, and it has also been possible to double up on monthly dividends by also doing the same trade on SATA (another preferred stock much like STRC) as their ex-dividend dates are different. Unlike a normal stock, STRC issues new shares directly to buyers at the $100 level, so these dividend arbitragers are causing new shares to be issued in large numbers as they buy in. When they sell on the ex-dividend day, the extra share issuance becomes too much for longer-term buyers to absorb, so the price drives down. Because new shares are issued at $100, the price never goes over $100, and so there's no market mechanism to destroy demand from arbitragers — they can always buy at $100 as much as they like. In a normal stock, arbitragers would push up the price, making the arb unprofitable, but this doesn't occur in STRC. Many of these dividend arbitragers will be failing to sell at a profitable price, so they'll be trapped holding shares and trying to sell into buyers entering for the next ex-dividend date to get out of their losing trade. These trapped dividend arb traders make it even harder for the price to return to $100. The other problem is, Strategy's mechanism for pushing the market back to $100 is likely to make this worse. They can increase the dividend amount to incentivise buyers, but increasing the dividend may incentivise dividend arbitragers more than long-term buyers, as a larger dividend is more appealing and easier to arb, because of the larger spread between $100 and the sale price. The recent drop in BTC to ~$60k has likely hit sentiment amongst longer-term holders, leading to reduced demand to absorb the excess supply caused by dividend arbitragers triggering ATM issuance of shares. The current design has the effect of issuing more STRC than the market can bear. Increasing the yield may help temporarily, but as the price returns to $100, dividend arbers are likely to drive up supply again until the $100 level cannot be maintained. I think Strategy needs to: Change the issuance policy to not issue at $100, but at a higher level. This will make dividend arbing harder, as people will be buying high and selling low, making the arb less likely to be profitable. At the moment buyers can always buy at

Now that Binance didnt got its MICA license on time, its europeans users have to move to other exchanges before 1 July. Every exchange's name on the table has an hyperlink towards the authority of financial markets of France where you can check where and when they got the license. If you are not already on any of theses exchange I would suggest one of top 2, Kraken or coinbase. And if you move the funds, remember to convert everythng to one token (dont use USDT and chose one that is cheap on gas), test a very little transfer first( ALWAYS DO THIS FIRST) and then transfer evverything and then convert it to what you had but now on the new exchange.
