So I've seen three different - popular - takes as to how the market will react to the ETF approval, these are;

1. Bitcoin will have the biggest move, with alt coins just tagging along for the ride.
2. It will trigger a general bull run where you get the usual random 100x shitcoin shenanigans, everyone trying to convince eachother which alt is going to moonshoot whether it be ALGO, DOT, SOL or ADA and so on.
3. The price goes down as people sell the news.

Personally I think it'll be option one. What do you guys think, also how do you think ETH will react since that's the other big player?

My follow up question is how are you preparing for this? Personally I'm change a good chunk of my portfolio for BTC in preparation, then once everything settles down, I'll redistribute into other projects.

Here's the original post (on this sub): (3) How to get all live crypto rates in Google Sheets or Excel to create a portfolio tracker. This is totally free and works for any local currency like USD, EUR, AUD, etc : CryptoCurrency (reddit.com)

For so many years now I get constant errors and 'loading' messages whilst trying to get crypto data into Google Sheets, and I've tried so many things. I finally stumbled upon this after finally giving up on CoinGecko (it works well, but requires a paid subscription after just a handful of calls) and it's a game changer, so thought I'd mention it.

On a side note, the one thing it doesn't have which I like to track is all time high, so if anyone knows a way of dragging that easily into Google Sheets I'd love to know please. Thank you

Sorry for the low effort post but I was wondering if there was a website that lists coins that were created between this recent bear market and now.

I could be wrong, but I've generally seen that "fresh" coins do well in their first cycle, obviously provided other requirements are met. I've seen a few promising coins that were released just a few months back (won't share here bc I'm not trying to shill), but I was looking for anymore.

Please feel free to mention any newer projects you feel will do well in this next cycle, and if there is some way to see all of these coins, please let me know and it'd be much appreciated.

I am aware that majority of coins created are junk btw, but every once in a while a real gem is released.

Thanks!

Original Title: The ETH 2024 road map is a silent cry for help. Vitalik has an eating disorder: He is having emotional surges, which lead to splurging and purging, and then he scourges himself from the guilt and shame. He is on the verge of breaking down, the burden of scaling Ethereum is too much.

A cry for help.

Read between the lines folks, scaling Ethereum has become too much for Vitalik and this undue pressure has led to an eating disorder. He has placed hints in this road map detailing his struggles and it's so obvious. Vitalik has been way too skinny, for way too long.

Imagine if you heard all of this for a decade?

"It's TOO EXPENSIVE!"

"WHY HAS MY TRANSACTION FAILED AND EATEN MY GAS FEE TOO?!"

"L2's ARE TOO FRAGMENTED AND CENTRALIZED"

"ETH IS SLOW AND EXPENSIVE"

"ETH WILL NEVER SCALE!"

"THE ETH ICO PUT 70% OF THE ETH IN THE HANDS OF INSIDERS!"

"ETH IS BROKEN"

It's time we step in and get Vitalik the help he needs: a position at Cardano working under Charles Hoskinson.

Charlie Hoskinsen working hard to scale Cardano. He is eating just fine.

I know, Moons are a sore topic for the sub, but they deserve a 2023 Recap and Celebratory post

Year Price Info:

Moons started 2023 around $.0776 and later jumped to a high of $.65 on rumors of a Kraken listing. At years closing Moons are ~$.13. Up 70% over an absolute wild year for our community token.

2023 Highlights:

In Jan 2023 the CC Community voted to allow companies to advertise with our banner

• On Jan: 31st 2023 we had our first Banner Renter: 1 inch with the following Banner

• Over the course of 2023 ~2M Moons were sent to the Dead wallet.

  • ~1M for MoonPlace
  • ~1M for Ecosystem costs (Banners and AMAs)

• The Biggest single Banner Advertiser was Agoradesk who advertised 8 different times and burned a total of 453,338 Moons.

On August 07th Kraken listed Moons, which quickly resulted in it being the number one place to buy/sell Moons.

On October 17th Reddit announced they were sunsetting Moons, would be burning their tokens, renouncing Contract ownership, and ending Moon Distributions.

• In November the supply of Moons dropped 34% as Reddit burned their supply of over 43M Moons dropping the supply from 126M to 82M.

Looking ahead to 2024

• Despite what some people now think Moons are far from Dead, Since Reddit sunset Moons 78 days ago, over 241K Moons have been burned (.3% of supply). You can see Moons sent to the Dead Wallet here.
• Governance is returning and mods have stated they are looking at running CC governance polls after the holidays.
• CCmods hold ~1M Moons in a community fund that will likely be used for future distributions to be confirmed via future governance.

Despite Reddit sunsetting RCPs, Moons are still up ~70% over the year: Now that Moon supply is hard capped, contract ownership renounced (Making Moons Decentralized), a functional ecosystem remains intact and the supply down from 126M to 82M - I'm looking forward to what 2024 has in store for Moons.

2024 will be the best year to buy more altcoins to get ready for the next bullrun. Either we wait for some minor correction or go into altcoins directly, now is the best time to position oneself for the big gains.

Altcoin investments tend to do 10x in a bullrun and if you're lucky with your picks, 100x or more are possible.

2024 narrative could be AI, DePINs (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks), Decentralized gaming, L2s and new super fast L1s....so there are plenty of new coins and tokens to pick from.

If we keep on hiding behind the two big top coins, we will miss out on the real big profits which crypto has to offer.

So what are your personal altcoin picks and/or what are your strategies?

I leave a reflection, happy holidays!

The debate is clear, what idea do you have about ICP, apart from the scandal that was at its launch, FTX, etc. my point of view it has the potential to be in the top 10, higher than below, it has one of the best teams behind, the foundation is located in Zurich and they do not have a financing problem

Anyone who has used the Dfinity network knows how well it works, how fast and how cheap the transactions are + safety Is Dfinity currently in a good position to take over from Solana?

Dfinitely your community is finally flourishing and every time there are new and better projects in the ecosystem

About viewing ETH Token Approvals

This relates to a few scam attempts on Reddit. I have tried to comment on those posts to help those that may be new, but get downvoted to heck.

For the Ethereum network specifically, if you want to see what approvals you have given (no signing required):

1. Never click on any links (obvious)
2. Go to etherscan (most know where to find this)
3. Click on "More" in the nav bar to the top
4. Under "Services" click on "Token Approvals" (currently shows Token Approvals 'Beta')
5. Enter you full address or .eth address
6. Choose the relevant type (eg. ERC-20, ERC-721, ERC-1155) to see what approvals have been given.
7. If you want to actually revoke, there will be a fee (based on gas). I will create another post for this. This is just for viewing (no signing).

"Hello everyone, I received an NFT today, liquid.eth, and naturally, I looked at the NFT in my wallet ledger live and also checked it on Etherscan. My question is, how can this NFT empty my wallet without my confirmation? I didnt try to sell or send it. I always thought that to make a transaction from my ledger, it always requires my approval." Can somebody explain who knows whats going on irvwhat should i do now. Any help is welcome. And the other thing is if they managed to connect my wallet how long would it need until they transferred my money.

I've been pondering the potential growth of the crypto market, currently at $1 trillion compared to the stock market's $50 trillion cap. 📈 Do you think we're in the "early stages" of crypto, considering its current market cap?

I've been contemplating a strategy of diversifying my investments across various altcoins along with Bitcoin and Ethereum. The idea is that as the crypto market continues to grow, having a stake in different coins could lead to significant profits down the line. 🤑

Of course, I acknowledge the volatility and risks associated with crypto, but the belief is that as more people, including professional investors, enter the space, demand will rise, contributing to an overall market cap increase. What are your thoughts on this? Do you see crypto becoming a key player in long-term investment portfolios? 🤔

Also, considering the potential for government regulations, how do you think this might impact the decentralized nature of cryptocurrencies? Could we see limits on transaction amounts or taxation frameworks implemented without compromising the essence of decentralization?

I would love for you guys to share your insights on the future of crypto investments. Your opinions matter, so feel free to drop your thoughts below! 🌐💬

Hello everyone,

I'm about to wipe my PC to do a fresh install with Windows. It's my main PC so I do all sorts of daily things.

Now I was thinking that I may want to keep all my crypto stuff (Ledger Live, browser with my hot wallets, accessing CEXs) on a USB stick and just access it when needed.

Now the question: Any (beginner-friendly) Linux distros that you would recommend? Especially considering if the USB goes missing and can't be accessed by a third party.

Before that I was considering getting a separate laptop, but this may be a better solution.

I was browsing the Binance page with morning and realised that their website had changed a lot since yesterday. Coming out of the major lawsuit with the CFTC and still ongoing SEC lawsuit, Binance is under a lot of public pressure from a number of misdeeds. To placate customers Binance are re-branding. Here is their homepage:

There's clearly an attempt to save face and recover lost trust here. But there's something possibly insidious going on here.

Coming out of their CFTC lawsuit settlement, even though they must exit the US they must still comply with US regulations. At least for a period of 3 years anyway. They will also be under extra scrutiny with an "independent" compliance monitors and committee. More than likely, the government, as well as the cooporations that shadow-runs it will use this as a way to monitor the information crypto users on the platform as well as influence crypto markets. And we see the beginnings of it here.

Binance's Fee page used to look like this.

Now it looks like this:

Sure, we knew BUSD was a dead coin, but USDC? For those out of the know, Circle's USDC is backed and managed by some of the biggest TradFi/banksters in the world. They literally have board and top level execs from the likes of BlackRock, Goldman Sachs and Delta Airlines. They specifically had a fund set up with BlackRock and also entered into an agreement for a $400M funding round with investments from BlackRock as well as Inc., Fidelity Management and Research, Marshall Wace LLP and Fin Capital.

There's also the fact that there were concerns that USDC could end up becoming a backdoor CBDC. The switch to USDC is...baffling, even under Binance's crisis of confidence situation. Government/Cooporation's pressure is one of the only valid explanations.
