What are your thoughts ? Extended cycle ? Or are we still following the 4 year cycle theory ? Quite frankly I've realised I don't care I'm in this until everything goes to 0 so I'll be holding, buying, selling until crypto ceases to exist. submitted by /u/Electronic_Worker245 [link] [Kommentare]

Ideally, this person has a background relevant to the field (degree, work), and doesn't repeat the same old video just to get more views. They're not interested in selling you anything. Moreso just truth seeking. An analogy in economics/finance is Defiant Gatekeeper. He does a great job at compressing various complex concepts in a way that's comprehendible and practical to the average viewer. He also went to a T10 school and has worked as an IB/PE investor for over a decade. submitted by /u/Traditional_Joke_939 [link] [Kommentare]

I haven’t done any bridging since 2021, and back then it was really stressful and a total pain in the ass. I just want to know what you guys are using these days. I came across Jumper and Debridge, but to swap an altcoin 1 to 1 like Polygon from BNB chain to Polygon chain it always seems to cost 1 to 2%, which I’d rather avoid. Do you always need to swap to USDC first before bridging so it doesn’t cost an arm and a leg? Is that just how it works? Also, I still use Metamask and I’m wondering if that’s outdated. I’ve tried Rabby a little, even though a lot of people said it’s way better, but I don’t really think it is. submitted by /u/Famous-Helicopter-36 [link] [Kommentare]

Hi all, i'm looking to swap some ETH into BTC, since i'm moving large amounts i'm wondering what protocol has the lowest fees/slippage, thorswap seems to have upgraded their fees as their UX shows as ~2.6% slippage. which is non-sense. i wanna do it in a decentralized way. What protocol has the lowest fees/slippage that's worth using in 2026? Please leave a comment. submitted by /u/Maz_Ded [link] [Kommentare]

I found a handwritten list of 25 common words “Horse, Music, Pudding…” inside a used book I bought at a market, and I know they are used for Crypto wallets but When I tried to put them inside my metamask app they were too many, we tried on a friend wallet app as well and it also was too many. He suggested some of the words might be a decoy. Or perhaps some wallets have more than 12 words? submitted by /u/StrongZeroSinger [link] [Kommentare]

TL;DR: Today I am ending my IBIT DCA. I'm down 21% over 28 months and public sentiment is awful for digital assets RN. I consider myself a HODLer. I'm a member of the crypto class of 2018. I have a cold wallet where I stacked for years, but in 2024 I decided to start using the ETF for simplicity's sake. When I first began monthly DCAing into the ETF in February 2024, IBIT was then trading at $29.12. It will open on the next trading day at $34.86. That's a modest 19% return over 28 months. But the story is more complicated than that, because the ETF is currently trading at less than half of its 52-week high of $71.82. As an aside, over that same 28 months the "boring boomer" S&P 500 (VOO) is up 50.8%. In the past, I would have viewed this as an opportunity to get my average cost per share down—which currently sits at $44.16—meaning my actual return over 28 months is -21%. The price of the asset is driven by sentiment, and for a host of reasons—including a very clear and unpunished pump and dump by the American president—sentiment on all digital assets among the public is in the toilet. I'll go further and add that I think the crypto community's full-on embrace of the GOP, and having the Don Juniors of the world be keynote speakers at Bitcoin conferences, is going to keep it there for at least 40% of the US population in perpetuity. I'm not going to sell at the bottom because I'm not an idiot, but I'm also not going to keep shoveling my money into a furnace. I am up over the long term, but the gains to be had right now are slim. I think my journey is emblematic of some of the changes in the community. I got into Bitcoin as freedom money and became part of Wall Street's adoption. So now I'm going to sit on the sidelines, HODL, and wait for whatever the next chapter is. For now I'm going to be shifting that DCA into VUG or VGT. submitted by /u/NerdFarming [link] [Kommentare]

Those who took the best financial decisions in the past 15 years have the worst documentation. They purchased BTC from strangers on forums, friends, or on LocalBitcoins. They mined BTC on old computers. They lost access to emails, bank statements, transaction receipts, chats, wallet comments, and screenshots. Now, over a decade later, they find themselves sitting across from their with 7 or 8 figures worth of digital assets, and they hear one very unpleasant question: "Can you prove where this came from?" It's the weird paradox of the earliest crypto gains, they are usually very difficult to prove to a compliance officer of a bank even if the compliance officer doesn't understand cryptocurrencies. Banks want to know: Who was the owner of the wallets? Where did the initial funds come from? What was the trail of assets over the years? Were there any exchanges, mixers, privacy coins, or other high-risk activities? Is this story something that could pass an audit? It's where most crypto millionaires from those times fail, not because their funds were ill-gotten but because of the age and poor quality of documentation of their story. submitted by /u/alt-co [link] [Kommentare]

Everyone's playing the AI trade through the same door: buy the GPU makers, buy the hyperscalers, buy the power names. Fine, that's the obvious trade and it's already priced. There's a less obvious layer underneath: someone has to finance all that hardware, and traditional banks are bad at underwriting GPU clusters. No credit history for a lot of these operators, depreciating collateral, no playbook. That's a real gap, not a made-up one, asset-backed lending against capital equipment is a normal thing in every capital-intensive industry, AI compute just doesn't have its version of it yet at scale. chip is a protocol built on exactly that gap: lending against GPU hardware as collateral, letting compute operators borrow without needing to sell equity or get a bank facility that doesn't exist for them. CHIP is the governance token. The pitch is simple: as AI infra buildout keeps scaling, the demand for this kind of financing scales with it. Why now: capex from the big AI buildouts keeps getting revised up, not down. That's demand for compute. Compute buildout needs capital. Capital needs a lending market that understands GPUs as an asset class. If that market doesn't really exist yet in scale, whoever builds it early captures a real niche. So: real gap, real narrative, genuinely tied to rising AI infra spend. Do your own read on the collateral mechanics and the tokenomics before you size it. Not financial advice, DYOR. submitted by /u/Slow-Set-2856 [link] [Kommentare]

Hi everyone, I’m the founder of Earnboard, a small Web3 campaign and task-reward platform built by a small team/family project. A few days ago, our official X account was suspended, and shortly after that our X API access was disabled too. Because Earnboard used X OAuth for user login, this didn’t just affect our social account, it also temporarily broke user login on the platform. I wrote a full article explaining what happened, why this has been so damaging, and why I believe small projects deserve a fair manual review when platform enforcement affects both communication and product access. If anyone is interested to read the article is on my personal account on X 'giveawaybanana'. I’m not asking anyone to spam X Support or harass anyone. Please don’t do that. What I’m asking for is advice or perspective from the crypto community: Is there a reliable path to get a real manual review? How should small Web3 projects introduce themselves without being flagged as spam? Earnboard is in a similar category to platforms like Galxe, TaskOn, Zealy, and Layer3. I’m not asking for special treatment, only the chance to exist and compete fairly under the same rules as others in this niche. Any advice, feedback, or direction would be appreciated. submitted by /u/cryptohiddengems [link] [Kommentare]
