If you are "staking" it at zillet.io, does that mean it's NOT offline in your paper or trezor wallet? And where do these options come in when you're buying the stuff? no matter what you own they are never "on" your trezor or paper wallet. every crypto is stored on the blockchain. what you hold is access to your tokens via your private key (unless you leave your coins in a wallet on an exchange like coinbase or binance, in which case they hold your private key, and you are a fool!). besides the exchanges (on which you should never store your stuff long term) there are online coin "hot wallets" such as you'll find at thetatoken.org and zillet.io, where you hold the private keys to your coins, where you access your wallet via password. those are relatively safe but still hackable imo. the highest level of safety is a "cold" wallet such as trezor or ledger, where your private keys are completely offline in the devices, making your coins only accessible by the device. highest level of security available today. staking does not change the way your tokens are held, you still control them, it just takes them out of circulation and helps support whatever blockchain they are stored on (very simple explanation to a much more technically detailed exlplanation). staking helps increase the value of what you're holding due to affecting the supply/demand ratio, it also helps build your stack. i earn roughly 1,000 tfuel per month just by staking, zilliqa does things a bit differently but it works out to something like a 15% apy in earned coins, constantly adding to my stack. i'm neither an expert nor a professional. my portfolio is up huge since last march but getting into the market also correlated nicely with the start of a bull run, so a lot of investors look smart when all they did was get lucky on timing. a lot of those folks are dicking around with laughable shitcoins like doge, i hold 5 cryptos representing 5 companies/technologies/solutions that i researched heavily and determined that i would be investing in those companies' stocks if that was the way to get a piece of them rather than crypto. i'm not afraid of a correction/crash, because my plan involves holding for 3-5 years. this bull run is very different than past bull runs in that huge institutional money is flooding into the game now. shit, even central banks are fucking printing money just to buy cryptos imo. ride the wave, take profits where appropriate to recoup your original investment and then play with the house's money So is Theta a company? More than a currency? |

Not a question of if Bitcoin will crack $50k, but when. Over/under on 11:59pm February 15. What say you? Ooo so close. Hope you took over. Hit $50k 7.5 hours later. |

everything is a bubble ev er y th i n g when you understand that, all you gotta do is look for the pins $TETHER could be a pretty sharp pin for the crypto mkt. not looking at it as a possible reason to start selling but moreso as a possible time to get ready to do some serious buying |

Here comes your chance..downside of the roller coaster. yeah good buy opportunity. this is the crypto market, it's not like the regular market. it's supervolatile, i don't know how day traders stay sane here. have a long term plan, and try to avoid the urge to check prices every 2 hours. a couple of huge huge bitcoin moves to genesis wallets yesterday apparently indicated some whales were setting up to take profits at around 57k, and they did. i'm sure they bought back in at the dip under 50. this is how its gonna be as the big institutional money comes in... they're big enough (and collusive enough) to have a price impact. as bitcoin goes so goes the altcoins, FOR NOW... no matter what markets you're in, hold on to your fucking hat over the next few weeks/months because the century-old shenanigans in the silver market is unwinding in plain sight, and there is gonna be some CRAZY shit going on. lots of major banks/funds shitting BRICKS right now because they are FUCKED in their (criminally) short positions with no way out. popcorn ready |
