Is Relovut a good idea for amount up to 1000 - 2000 Euro?

Is he better off going with a particular web site to purchase?

Thanks ...

Revolut charge different fees.

Depends on what card you have.

That's a blast from the past. Haven't heard anything about it since 2017. :pac:
It's still an active project?

IMO Revolut is a great way to get started in Crypto.

The main benefit of Revolut for a newbie is you can buy and more importantly sell instantly 24/7,
so you can experience the crazy ups and downs of crypto, but you can get out of it quickly and easily if you need to.

One thing about link, all coins have yet to be released therefore its value is over double what it should be when all are in circulating supply.

Just something to observe.

Supply 410m
Supply increased approx 17% last year, price went up 1500% in the year
110m on exchanges
15m taken of exchanges in Feb
300m stored of exchanges
KSM pumping due to them being required to bid in the KSM slot auction, less for sale and will be locked up, same will happen for DOT in few months, think of KSM as a view into the future of what will happen to DOT.
The same will happen to Chainlink as token will be required to run node.
https://www.coindesk.com/chainlink-deutsche-telekom-staking-blockchains-flow
Relevant part at the bottom
“We are not doing Ethereum 2.0 staking yet,” said Dudka. The ETH T-Systems buys is needed for Chainlink, he said, and has to be spent in order to sign transactions on the Ethereum public mainnet.

Deutsche Telekom AG, Europe’s largest telecommunications company by revenue is accumulating Chainlink, I doubt from exchanges most likely directly from Chainlink, so circulating supply is probably mush higher, what other entities are accumulating and why aren’t you?

Interesting. Do you have a link/source for that part? I can't find anything myself...

Unless there is something else I have missed, I suspect this is referring to their subsidiary T-Systems Multimedia Solutions which is staking crypto to run a Chainlink node: https://www.t-systems-mms.com/en/expertise/archive/smart-contracts-made-reliable-and-useful-with-the-real-world-data.html

If this is what is being referred to, I think it is a bit of a stretch to say T-Mobile are accumulating LINK. I doubt there is any corporate decision at the T-Mobile level to build a strategic reserve (as Microstrategy is doing with BTC). It is more one of their inovation-oriented subsidiary companies which is experimenting with with blockchain and De-Fi technology (which is good news, but doesn't mean T-Mobile sees LINK as a reserve asset).

Nothing to see here :D:D:D:D:D:D

It's a fascinating project, and one I'm bemused regarding how well its doing.

Decentralised video hosting isn't a bad shout for blockchain stuff at all - we've been fiddling with various P2P implementations of it for years in all sorts of technologies - but low-latency streaming in this implementation slightly concerns me; especially their claim about 'lower latency, smoother streaming'.

Basically for route management, discovery, peering - the topology related stuff of any bridging network system with edge nodes - is fine on blockchain. Its the delivery/bandwidth/integrity of the stream itself I'm a little confused by, but the rise in sentiment (and price of the coin) has me sufficiently intrigued to try and dive their tech stack.

Whats the Price Target for Q4 2021 from those who've been following it for a while?

It seems a relatively 'crashproof' altcoin in terms of its usecase, institutional buy-in, and higher unit price than most alts so considering a hold for longer than 3+ months which is unusual for me for anything not largecap/large unit.

Anyone into yeild farming here? I've a nice amount of fetch.ai on crypto.com which cannot be staked there, and I was checking out the developers website, and they offer a reward system of "up to 275% apy" for yeild farming on their system.

Working surprisingly well so far, earning about 0.8% return a day, gas fees where a big hit at the start but I've covered them now.

Its getting pretty large cap now!

Anywhere between 20-30 dollars is a good year.

Dont forget its not just streaming, edge computing will be a big part of their future plans. Everything will be moving to the edge in the next few years.

Bragging of making a grand total of €245 of BTC in a week of trading, posters making that in a day off shít coins, your posting like your a whale when in reality your plankton.

We all like a bit of positive thinking but come on, delusional to say the least.
Theta 1,000,000,000 in circulation.
So you really believe it will hit a conservative $30 for 2021?
$30B would put it today at rank 7 in marketcap.
Porsche SE Market cap: $31.48 B
Toyota Industries Market cap: $30.50 B
Hapag-Lloyd Market cap: $30.30 B
ArcelorMittal Market cap: $29.89 B

$60/70B would have it at rank 3.
Adidas Market cap: $67.23 B
BMW Market cap: $63.45 B
Heineken Market cap: $61.69 B
So Theta is going to be worth the same or more than these household names?
Get some perspective, Amazon in 2014 paid $970 million in cash for Twitch.

There’s a difference between making 245 and investing.
I doubt many here are DCA’ing over 245/day (90k pa)

Well you think chainlink is going to a few hundred so why should that be higher than all these great businesses.

There is no point comparing crypto market cap with stocks.

The more I read of posters here it becomes clear there are two different types, A, who are serious investors and B, who are Rinky Dink investors.
The problem is distinguishing which is which.
We have absolute useless posts of the quality of “Buy XYZ, thank me later” “Get on ABC it going to moon” , is it too hard to post a short proposition as to why you think it will be a good investment?
I suppose it would complete expose the Rinky Dink players if they attempted to give their reasoning, so they don’t, and continue to post “ABC to the moon” without any info as to why.
We see posters here proclaim, I’m going in on XYZ” some perspective is needed, a move in of €1k+ would warrant attention, but a move of €100 from a Rinky Dink investor, while not giving a single reason other than “trust me, it will be huge” what’s the point?
We see the same posters espousing a move to Portugal to avoid paying taxes on their crypto gains, one would think they are serious investors and making serious money, then they proudly proclaim a couple of hundred euro a week gains……….. in a bull market!!
These same posters state they are thinking of becoming a full time crypto trader, what are they going to give up playing Xbox all day and trade their dole money?
The history of some posters shows they move a massive €100 to coinbase, it pumps to €150, they proclaim they are withdrawing the initial investment of €100 and will get the €50 ride, “too the moon” these same Rinky Dink investors are leading the conversation around here.

Theta to €70B market cap!!!! What are they smoking?
Remember we are in a Bull Market, perspective has been completely lost round here, it will all end in tears with new users of this forum ending upholding heavy bags of shît coins that have lost most of their value, all due to the Rinky Dink investors posing as experts, gambling €20 of their dole money.

How do you fix it?
1,Any recommendations should come with a synopsis of why you think its going to rise in price, “I like the sound of the name” aint a valid reason, if you can’t post a paragraph as to why its a good buy , don’t bother.
2, Quit the BS about moving to Portugal to avoid paying tax, quitting the day job to trade crypto, in other words posing as Wall Street Titans and they bragging about a couple of hundred euro weekly gains in a bull market, a serious investor around here would have spent that on gas fees on Uniswap.

The outcome we all want is to make money, Gordon Gecko larpers are going to cost folk around here money in the long term.

Dont take him seriously, he's only having a bit of fun I'd imagine, bit of a parody at this stage.

Everyone has to start somewhere, dca in a little bit every week. The biggest crypto millionaires went with this approach and it will work over time.

The problem is, you think it's a problem.

It's a discussion board, you're going to get a fairly broad mix which probably skews towards the amateur investors rather the Gordon Gecko types.

I assume it's pretty much all amateurs/enthusiasts to be honest, the Gordon Geckos only being such in their own head.

I admit, I know very little about the whole Crypto thing (save for that I should have gotten into it when it first came up years ago

) but if I was to transfer say €50 into Bitcoin each month via Revolut is it as simple as that?

- Can I lose more than I spend?
- How much can you have/invest before you need to declare it to Revenue?

Sorry, basic/stupid questions I know but they're the 2 that jump out of me.
