Are we excited yet?

Hi, Charles Hoskinson broadcasting live from warm sunny Colorado, always warm always sunny - sometimes Colorado.


Definitely going to take a month or two for recovery. In Cardano news, Charles speaks the truth and tries to comfort you until Alonzo. HODL ADA religiously

Is there any decent youtubers people follow - most I've found are blowing their own trumpets or changing their minds every few hours or say buy this and a week later say don't touch this

The only ones I've found worth watching are Benjamin Cowen, InvestAnswers and CoinBureau. Anyone else I've seen just does ridiculous hopium TA and use cringe thumbnails making stupid over exaggerated faces

Absolutely none. Some start as educators (InvestAnswers) etc but all ultimately end up shilling referral links. That’s their goal from the outset. Good investors / traders don’t need to make YouTube channels.

Not sure I'd entirely agree with that considering how lucrative YouTube is and that plenty of people would see it as an additional revenue source while growing their overall brand/profile which benefits them long-term, just look at the fact that the likes of Will Smith and Jack Black do YouTube these days; actors don't need to make YouTube channels for the same reason you'd think good traders don't (they're already loaded) yet there they are

Once you upload a YouTube video as well it's there for as long as you leave it listed, gathering views over time which contributes more and more revenue. Since they're into investing anyway, they obviously enjoy talking.about it so it's not much effort to take advantage of it - InvestAnswers for example has great qualifications and experience and his videos are really simple to put together

Guy at coinbureau is good if painfully English, and Benjamin Cowen is good. Both of them are adament they can't predict the market short term and as Cowen paraphrases 'All models are wrong, some are useful'

No need to worry lads..,, just zoom out..lol

Only reason I'm worried (if at all) is because it's going up.


I want the bigger dip. Hopefully tonight/tomorrow. Then maybe a month or so of more sideways movement.

Anyone use 3Commas?

Thought I'd have a play with it today and threw a whole 20 euro at it - not sure how it all works but I'm up 0.07$ woohoo

I need to figure out how these bots work

Yeah I've been using it for a while, Matic was the best performer for DCA a few months ago.

There's some tutorials on youtube how to use it, or you can go to the marketplace and copy someone elses. You can search by metrics (performance over 10/20/90 whatever days) etc.

Attention is also focused on the so-called "gamification" of stock investing, which Rowland expects to become an issue for Europe soon.

Online brokerages such as Robinhood Markets have brought a slew of mom and pop investors into the US market and critics accuse them of turning trading into a social activity.

Readers of online platforms like Reddit have played havoc with shares of firms such as GameStop and AMC Entertainment Holdings and people could be exposed if they are effectively using message boards as a substitute for investment advice.

The European Securities and Markets Authority has held discussions on the issue, as well as the Central Bank, Rowland said.

That's terrible, that people can now invest in the stock market using Robinhood.

"Readers of online platforms like Reddit have played havoc with shares of firms such as GameStop and AMC"

Right, so it's regular people and not the hedge funds naked shorting that are 'reaking havoc', prick

Not sure but would think Robinhood will be hoping the EU market saves them. After the GME debacle they are largely unliked and unwanted in the US.
Regarding BTC or crypto, it's advised not to use Robinhood also, as you are not in control of your keys. Robinhood doesn't allow to withdraw it either. You can only buy it and sell it back to yourself with their fees.

I don't understand the gamification angle. Does robinhood have achievements? Surely not

If you sell stocks for a profit, when it goes through, the app pops up with balloons and confetti, looks like a slot machine game from Paddy Power. It looks stupid, and drives old money crazy.
