I disagree, we arent seeing a bubble but actual value add due to recent surge in adoption along with new functionality. Ethereum's smart contracts have only recently gotten to the point where they can fill the gap along with the surge in defi apps that came from that which filled it.

I was basing it off ethereum not bitcoin, but you are right he probably meant bitcoin. At the end of 2014 bitcoin was worth 300$, now it is 60000, so 200x gain. so yea ballpart of 800$ or 1000$ is reasonable.

@Coyote

If you made even a few dollars in 2014 and it is on that drive it is worth tens of thousands now, seriously!

@Coyote

You might be surprised... I had 100$ worth of crypto left on a hardware wallet from 2 years ago, when i found it it was worth 12,000$

@crunklord420

This is true, but IMO thats one good reason not to invest in bitcoin in the first place. The other crypto are far more appealing IMO.

@icedquinn

Yea, though if you are using a hardware wallet you have to write it down by hand, and with good reason (if the seed phrase were sent through USb and ultimately to a printer then it could be compromised on an insecure system).

@likho

Cant say I agree unless I or someone were posting a blog post or something where I might expect to snag a large group of people to get on board.. His personal decisions or any effort I make in a one-on-one conversation will have absolutely no effect on my personal profits.

That said I think you could say I am bias (just as you are bias to your own PoV).. but that isnt the same thing as a conflict of interests.

@Coyote

@Coyote

You dont need to rely on a single hardware wallet or thumb drive.. you can have multiple copies with no need to update them (the money doesnt actually sit on the wallet).

More over there is a 24 word seed phrase that if you save that on paper somewhere it can be used to regenerate your wallet even if you loose all data. However anyone who gets this 24 word phrase could steal all your money if you choose to save the phrase.

@moth

No a usb tumbdrive cant act as a hardware wallet.. thats just a remote drive, even if you encrypt it it isnt providing you the protection a hardware wallet offers.

For example if you use an encrypted thumbdrive wallet on an insecure computer it can trivially be hacked to steal all your money. Not so with a hardware wallet.

@Atlas_Khan @PestToast @likho @crunklord420 @SADIDAS @10grans @dave @Coyote @Moon

@Coyote

It probably isnt worth the cost of a hardware wallet if your going to spend only 500$ and thats the end of it.

They run from about 50$ to 150$ for the two mainstream brands.

@Coyote

I keep it in my hardware cryptowallet next to hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of investment crypto.. which makes me giggle.

@Prat Hey, great to have you here! Hit me up to chat anytime.

@Coyote

Woa big spender.. Now that your in the crypto game I noticed you dropped a few leading zeros from your 10grans tips :)

@10grans @dave @moth @Atlas_Khan @crunklord420 @PestToast @likho @SADIDAS

@crunklord420

Not sure what the reason for the discrepancy is. My gate.io account is fairly old I think, so maybe.

@Coyote

@likho

I'm not sure its that, he would be a drop in the bucket.. I think your going to get more of a confirmation bias effect where the people who make money on crypto are going to be louder than the ones who've lost.

@Coyote

@crunklord420

I dunno what to tell you, I just know I am verified on gate.io and have access to all the features I mentioned.

@Coyote

@crunklord420

From January to the begining of April the USD has actually increased. it dropped slightly since april but overall is still up since january.

@likho @Coyote

@likho

Argue against investment i guess I could have said then.

@Coyote

@crunklord420

Positive I use them almost exclusively as my exchange of choice from America and am highly diversified in all sorts of crypto including some pretty obscure stuff.
