Even you seem to be using GDAX, and that has 0% fees for makers, and you seem to be using that kind of incentive - and what if they raise their fees to 1%, you going to change your behavior and perhaps discuss the situation, no?
I'd re-evaluate the landscape, sure. And I might change. I might even discuss it. What I wouldn't do is ask a silly question like 'why are they raising their rates?'.
Nah.. the question is not silly... you are just grasping at straws in your technical parsing about what has been discussed in terms of why Gemini is going to 1%.
the fact that they made the increase in their trading fees does not mean that they are either correct in their assumptions and/or goals or that their change will achieve their goals (as you seem to imply that whatever the fuck they do, they are smart and they will be successful in reaching their unstated goals..
Not exactly. I'm just saying that they have a better viewpoint on the matter than do either you or I.
Like I said, even though I am framing the question in terms of their viewpoint, I am also discussing the matter in terms of my own interests... hello?
.. whatever, this is not exactly about them, when we are talking about ourselves and our decisions about whether to use their services and/or how to change our practices, if we choose to do so.
While that may have been your implied subtext, that is explicitly NOT what I replied to.
Yeah, because you are technically parsing and losing the point.. and getting caught up in details to act like the subject matter does not matter.
What I demonstrably replied to was your 'why would they raise rates?' If you didn't want a possible answer, why did you ask the question?
It is part of the overall concept and attempts to figure out what is going on in the whole crypto space which affects individual decisions about which exchanges to use, how to use them and planning around those kinds of changes in the space.
By the way, I opened an account on Binance, and I moved some of my previous Gemini trading over to Binance.. They seem to have some technical interface issues, currently.. so a bit buggy so far with my own individual usage compared with Gemini... but each platform has its pluses and minuses.
You would rather talk about how Bcash ...
Hmm. Which of the two of us injected BCH into the conversation? Somewhat telling, that.
It is not telling because your nonsense on that point has been strongly played out at various points.. you are poo pooing the importance of my talk around Gemini, so seems to be a way for me to do a bit digging back at what you might prefer.. oh? Bcash is not doing so well lately either, right? It is still the future though right?
