A couple of items that people might find interesting in the adoption of bitcoin and the integration of crypto into conventional systems.

Comparing Public Bitcoin Adoption Rates in 2020 vs. 2017.

Integration of Cryptocurrencies into the Largest Payment Systems.

There's movement happening that implicates different projects, with a variation in utility and final use case.

Breaking news....Now US banks can custody crypto assets.

Here's crypto sector policy/advocacy group Coin Center's take on the decision - and why it's good for crypto => LINK

It's probably just a fad, this crypto thing...

Stacked another load of sats there just now. Still expecting a massive breakout within 3 days, $500+. Gut says down (as it's crypto), but ya never know.

Gut was wrong for once. Stacked again there.

Pubs being closed = serious stacking.

Ripple is anyway.
A few months ago read article , big wig in the Federal Reserve was asked about Ripple and clearly stated we wont be using it.
I sure if you searched you could find it.

Nice. Silver at $24.25 as we speak too.

Hopefully BTC can hold above $10,000 this time.

Grumpypants

Very similar pattern to 2017. Alts boom then money moves back to Bitcoin. Now we have defi boom, moves to ETH, ETH booms, then it flows to Bitcoin.

A nice Bitcoin, ETH and defi spread will see you do well.

Yep the macro guys on FinTwit are all over gold and gradually more into bitcoin. And gold streaming and mining stocks have been on fire in the past few weeks.

The only problem is that almost everybody agrees (at least when it comes to gold), but macro conditions are setting-up hard assets for a serious bull run.

I think we shall see a levelling off on BTC & ETH and then money starts to flow back into mid caps

only got into crypto a few months ago but am I right in thinking that people are moving money out of alt coins and this is pumping bitcoin and eth? does this mean the money will trickle back into the alts in the next few weeks?

total crypto market cap has gone up massively in the last week so there's a lot of new money coming into the space.

I was watching the binance order book earlier when it broke past $10500, there was something very satisfying watching all the sell orders get swallowed in less than a minute

This Zeus Ad showed up in my tineline. It's about some class lawsuit against Link. Does anyone know anything about it.

BTC dominance is 62.6% as I write this, and in the past 30 days it has been in a channel between 60.4 and 64.8 (i.e. we are more or less in the middle). So while it increased a bit today, I wouldn’t read too much into it for now.

Jeez whoever is behind this is really going after it! Interesting to see how it plays out. Even if its all bs its going to be damaging confidence short term. Seems to have bounced back a little bit since yesterday lows.

It's like a wave. Defi tokens go up, then a few days later the money is moved so ETH, and then into Bitcoin.

If you strike the right Alt you can make a nice bit. The risk is you start chasing every new coin that promises the world. You end up with lots of garbage and they do nothing and drift off to be worth nothing.

It can be fun though. But pure gambling.

I've generally a 60/20/10/10 split across Bitcoin/ETH/Alts/Defi.

You might want to dig into Simeon Rusov and Georgi Dimitrov at Nexo.
Big short in big trouble.

Could be. If they're shorting an asset they'll have a hedging strategy in place.
If Nexo are incorporated in the US and pumping and dumping the SEC are able to review them. That's much worse than an otm short position.

I don't know what the connection or problem is between Zeus and Nexo but a few weeks ago I sent Nexo an email enquiring about Interest Rates and immediately I received an email from Zeus that warned of the Link project.

I never gave Zeus my email address and only use it to contact Nexo. I asked Nexo how Zeus got my email and they denied giving it to them.

Maybe Zeus have hacked Nexo's customer lists?

Another Ad showed up in my Twitter earlier from Zeus. Apparently a Russian fraudster Sergey Nazarov is behind Link pump and dump. It seems like they are attacking Link and Nexo but I'm not sure.

A lot of people have complained about this. If you have signed up for Nexo, you have likely received an email.

Dig around on twitter. Follow the names and links I provided earlier to see why Zeus & Nexo both look very shady regarding this.

What I don't understand is that Nexo recently partnered with Link. Why would they collaborate with Zeus discrediting Link.

Are Nexo trying to manipulate the price?
