Is anyone else starting to become a bit excited?

As per title, have we reached the bottom ?

Don't think we'll see the likes of $3200 ever again.

$5150 at time of posting.

Back in the mainstream media once more.

Vitalik escalates ETH 2.0 merge as miners plan a 51% attack

https://our.status.im/vitalik-escalates-eth-2-0-merge-as-miners-plan-a-51-attack/

Looks really messy. 2 chains running together and miners threatening to do the very thing they exist not to do.

Could end up with 2 forks.

What happens to the ether we know today if it ends up not the winning fork?

I think that XGG is another rare gem.
Just recently added on the market.
The team behind it is a well known team which was behind DMST.
1m USD liquidity provided by the team
250k marketing plan
Beta test of their platform coming up on the 15th March
After Beta test they will launch the marketing campaign
Platform launch at end of March
Staking
NFT launch in Q2
and it is only listed on Uniswap & Bilaxy atm
Huge potential there!!!

What's are Uniswap and Bilaxy like to use ?

Uniswap and Bilaxy similar to the pink slip sites or what is the difference between them and Binance/Kraken ?

Careful out there tonight. There is a big bull on the run

On Uniswap you don't need to create any accounts, just need to have Metamask installed and linked to your wallet...then can buy XGG with USDT , but also need to have a bit of ETH in your wallet to pay the gas fee. Then after you approve the swap, the XGG will go straight to your wallet. To view it in your wallet, since it's a new token, you need to add it manually, so get the code/contract address to add it.
Bilaxy on the other hand is an exchange similar to Kraken or Binance as you mentioned, but smaller, can send USDT to Bilaxy and use them to buy the XGG. Then u can send the XGG to your wallet if so you wish.
I have used both of them, they're both very ok.
If you want to buy on Uniswap, check a tutorial on youtube first, it will give you an ideea.
If need more info, let me know.

Ethereum looks next to hit the all time high. It dipped to around $1300 2 weeks ago.

Bear in mind a bit of Eth to fund the transaction is now about $50 worth of eth. So unless your buying a large amount it's usually a lot cheaper to buy on bilaxy, gate.io or similar exchange that lists uniswap coins early.

Indeed and this is crazy. Makes it unusable for a majority of people.

I think this state of affairs is holding back the price of Ethereum and it would be quite higher otherwise. It still is the king of smart contracts by a huge margin, but this is casting some doubts and redirecting attention/cash to competitors.

Anyone who thinks bitcoin isn’t going to touch $100,000 is absolutely delusional in my opinion.

To fulfill my wildest dreams, it'd want it to kick well beyond $100k. It will.

My view is that it won't be long until we view it not as buying bitcoin but diluting the coin to more accessible satoshi purchases. We are still early.

Same for $1,000,000, and possibly even $100,000,000. Keep holding.

I think we need a real kick-ass ADA Cardano video to get a good feeling for the near future. This one I put together earlier I was absolutely wasted with the southern comfort. I hope you like it.
ADA/ETH/Bitcoin. It will do wonders to your health.

The only way for it it reach 100,000,000 in the medium term would be for Venezuela-type hyperinflation to happen in the US (if I am not mistaken, in current USD value a much more “modest” 5,000,000 per BTC would make BTC’s market cap larger than all company shares in the world put together).

If this is your target I’d say be careful what you wish for. The world including Ireland would be vastly different in such scenario, and not for the better.

I agree, I bought on both, got XGG on Uniswap with a $10 gas fee, was lucky at that point, but also bought loads on bilaxy when the gas fee was high. So, indeed it's good that it's listed on Bilaxy as well.
Admins will be testing their platform on Monday, and marketing campaign right after, so buying it now would be fantastic.
Higly recommended.

Ethereum: High fees, plan to scale with fees reduced to a tiny fraction of current levels, current situation is temporary - unusable

Bitcoin: High fees, no plan or ability to scale, devs literally working against the whitepaper, current situation is permanent - perfect

Very different projects and use cases though.

At this stage it is clear to everyone that bitcoin isn’t seen as a transactional currency but rather a store of value (at least the base layer, L2 solutions could change this). This might somewhat diverge from the white-paper but it is widely accepted and clearly a lot of people are happy with that. In this context the name of the game is simplicity, stability, and reliability. Plus transaction costs, liquidity, and portability are actually quite good in that context and better than other asset classes in the category.

Ethereum is meant as a transactional and customisable platform to support digital money and decentralised finance. Throughput and transaction costs are vastly more important in this type of use-case. Realistically paying several dozens of euros for a crypto currency swap on a DeFi platform makes it useless for a majority of people. Granted, Bitcoin wouldn't be able to support this type of platform either (both because of the lack of advanced programability and because of limited throughput), but it doesn't matter since it isn't trying to do that and no-one expects it to do it either. On the case of Ethereum however, it is its bread and butter so it has to work.

I agree that inflationary pressure will be a significant push on the $ value of BTC.
There are medium term (5-15yr) pressures that will likely play a role in pushing BTC that way tho IMO.

The Chinese are holding a huge % of US debt, the US is running a monetary policy that is highly inflationary in their QE.
Chinese push for Global hegemony will lead to at the minimum a more severe economic conflict than just tariffs.
US think tanks are reporting near naval parity for China outside of carriers and ssbn's.
That puts Taiwan at serious risk, and the Chinese will leverage every advantage they have, economic and fiscal in particular to get hold of Taiwan IMO.

That leaves the dollar as the currency of a near failed state unless the US manage a decisive win, while holding a moral high ground.
Not impossible, but not as likely as it was even 10yrs ago.

The analogue that springs to mind is Roman currency and the debasement post 2nd century.
It's a trite, but apt comparison I think.
The loss of realpolitik power, trying to be offset by ever larger payments of an ever less valuable currency.

It was expected to do it and Satoshi wanted it to happen, it wasn't mean to stop dead in it's tracks and be unalterable like it's the crypto-Quran.
Even Blockstream thought they could do something by shilling Rootstock. It doesn't have that ambition now cos there was a hostile takeover and we have a market built up of people happy to use Coinbase as a bank, they don't even bother asking about wallets or looking at forums like this. Bitcoin was created to be used by people (that was the entire point of it, delegitimise third parties), has been memed into another thing now, just a money-sponge for people who don't care about anything to do with crypto at all - it's much worse than 2017 by that metric.

Ethereum was built to be used as a back-end for businesses. Only one of them is able to fulfil it's role in any capacity and only one has any plan to scale.

I don’t think Satoshi ever expressed ambitions for Bitcoin to support advanced smart contracts. He mentions that BTC is to become decentralised electronic cash (which is now unlikely to happen at the base layer), but not a global decentralised open computer as Ethereum ambitions to be.

So I've just bought XGG on Bilaxy and want to get it off there asap (looks dodgy af), what wallets can store this? I have atomic wallet, will it store XGG?

put in 5k

half a fortune is better than no fortune, if you can afford to wake up tm -10k and still feed urself/family then go for it. It it means you are in trouble if you lose 10k, don't. Any money I have put in is money i would have used last 12 months to go on hols, petrol for car etc. If it disappeared in morn i still have my paycheck and a few nixers will pay for a holiday next year. I plan on HOD until my kids need it for college or i retire which ever comes first.

I'd put 1k on BTC any day before 1k on some nag in cheltenham. You only really lose if you liquidise your loss imho.

That's the thing, even if it went to a million a coin, still not a fortune with 5k into it at this stage, still peanuts.
