It was a disposable email address which I set up forwarding on so I’m not at all worried about it. Probably made it onto one of those lists. Address was from do-not-reply@post.binance.com with BinanceQA as the name itself. The link does verify back to the Binance website and the cert is from them.

Might be time to get involved in shîtcoin day trading. It’s a sign......

Got a really weird email from Binance today asking me to finish a sign up for an account by clicking a verification link. It was to an old email address I have but haven’t used in almost a decade. I’m one of the least likely people to have have or want a Binance account. Are they having any security issues on their side?

Probably someone else just tried to register on binance with your email address for whatever reason.

Wouldn’t be a security issue but the security process actually working as intended: when someone registers with an email address they send an email to that address with a validation link to make sure the person genuinely owns that address, and if no one ever clicks on the verification link they don’t allow the registration to go through.

Happened to me before with other websites: within a few days I got (genuine) verification emails from a couple of different websites whereas I never tried to register for them. Clearly someone was for some reason trying to use my email address to register on multiple websites.

No, funnily enough.

Here is the end of January dip i spoke about previously, with the sub €100 ET/ sub3k btc.

It could be a bad one and hit a new low (kinda hoping so i can stock up). But also this is prob the last one.

It's 2-3 years to 333k now

Will buy you a lambo if correct on the latter.

I'll hold you to that and expect you to make up for any shortfall.

I assume you sold it all then recently and will buy again when it hits this final new low.

Sold about 60% of what I had when it hit the false dawn at around the €135 mark. Have bought back about half that in the last few days as it hovered around 100. Have set some stepped low bids at 61/71/82/92 to take advantage of any heavy dips if they happen. If not i've still bought some nice sub 100 ETH.

This time next year we will be kicking ourselves for not stiocking up on the €100

Excellent opinions expressed in this article. Well worth a read no matter which side of the argument you are on.

It has been tracking pretty close to its historical charting. It predicted this false dawn, and another crash from now to the end of Jan. Even below the previous low. But that is then the final bottom and it is a slow burn to 2023 and 300K+

Either way I sold out 40% of my holding at around €120 for ETH and will hopefully buy back in. Anything under €100 will be nice. We will never see sub 100 again.

Stocking up?:D

Just getting back to what i had planned to lock away for a long term, but i'll admit it, i did panic sell and panic buy back, and then panic hold on the way down. .

Nothing Warren Buffett would care about......coz he hates crypto !!!

Made every mistake, let emotion take over and took a hit. But back to were i was now. Even added a tiny bit extra to the holding.

On a side note Jack the CEO of Twitter and Square, but also has the cash app. Big focus of the cash app is to give people outside the banking sector access to debit and rewards.

He was talking about it near the end of Joe Rogans podcast last week. Worth a listen. He is all in on the idea of an internet currency and reckons bitcoin has a good chance as it has been through the ringer and keeps bouncing back and proving its worth.

Will have a listen!

An Inflection point of that magnitude is something to get very excited about.

Question is why? I reckon following movements in graphs without properly understanding why they've occurred (even retrospectively) is something of a mugs game. I absolutely believe block chain and crypto are going to assume an increasingly important role in our future, but I couldn't be arsed trying to make any short term gains on it.

Unless you have done homework and bought in, why would you follow it, it's like saying I love rugby but hate football. Actually in the context of a football match an inflection point is like a turn in a football match, where the loosing side are getting hammered and suddenly get possession of the ball and score from outside the box. The match isn't over but it's a very good comeback. There was a double inflection point today.

Have not all the recent jumps been immediate jumps like that only to end up going lower within a week?

It's rigged to fnck..

Funny enough, I do love rugby and hate football, and would rather watch a great match where the team I follow lost over a crap match where they won. I am also invested in ETH and IOTA though not in any major sense, and do follow a number of blogs on these two. Again, I'd like either or both of these coins to succeed and believe they have a decent chance of doing so, but if they don't, so be it.

There was a double inflection point today.

Unless you know why that happened with a moderate degree of confidence you might as well be talking about a nag you put a few bob on in the grand national. As I see it, a change of price can reflect an actual event such as adoption of a coin by a major player, passing a difficult tech milestone etc... or be down to market manipulation. Unless I see strong evidence of the former, I'd assume the latter.

Or could be Chinese New Year, in which case Gung hay fat choy one and all and happy pig year

Funny that you mention the nags that's is actually the reason I think it blew up with horse racing being off.
