Uneventful week.
It's called "sideways" by my lights.
Jay may disagree.

When in doubt, zoom out... or maybe update your bulbs. I heard that LEDs work pretty good. #justsaying

Still not a coiner?
Plan. DCA. Kiss that frog.
You will get your prince!

These days DCA is likely going to take 4-10 years or longer, even though in our beginning times in bitcoin (referring to 2015-ish), it was possible to get a pretty decent stake in dee cornz in 2-4 years - depending on specifics and abilities to front load.

Even if the current BTC price upside is not likely to be as great as it was 10-ish years ago, there still seems to be a lot of upside to go, and bitcoin remains amongst the greatest of investments, if not the greatest, yet there could be some challenges to front run some of the current entrants, since there are a lot of current entrants who are rich and who are driving up the BTC price.. yet at the same time, it seems to me that even the next 4 years, there will still likely be some decent abilities to front run the BIGGER players currently coming into bitcoin and some of them who still have not yet started their bitcoin accumulation journey.

Let alts be the waves...

Nope, let's not.

Dude..."that" is kind of a curse word around here, if you did not notice it yet...wrong forum.

I am not well versed in the technical side of things, yet, I am sure there are some projects which holds promise.

Maybe I am wrong, enlighten me.

Shitcoins are off topic in these here parts, so there is not much reception regarding debates about which shitcoin happens to be less shitty.

Sure if you want to talk about shitcoins and/or fuck around with shitcoins there are other threads on the forum for that, yet it might be to your own best interest to focus on bitcoin first.. Bitcoin and attempting to bolster your own cashflow management systems and practices. If you spend 4 years or more building up your bitcoin investment, I am not sure if you would necessarily still be interested in shitcoins, yet even if you are interested in shitcoins and cannot help yourself, then perhaps if you limit investment of time, energy and/or value into them to be no more than 10% the size of your bitcoin investment, then at least you would have had limited the level of your distraction.

Many times, traders (aka gamblers) cannot help their level of getting distracted, so they will frequently commit to limiting their distraction level, but then they cannot help themselves when they see a "good deal," and they end up wrecking themselves when they had an otherwise great asset right in front of them... in fact perhaps the best possible investment that they could make into bitcoin and they end up fucking themselves by trading(gambling) and/or fucking around with shitcoins. and they might not even realize they are shitcoins because they are too busy focusing on how rich they are going to become from whatever supposed innovation is offered by such pumps and dumb shitcoins that they gullibly believe to be "the real deal" get rich quick phenomena..

Another massive airdrop coming to Bitcoin holders? This has some real Hex vibes to it. I imagine it will sell off immediately and be used by hodlers to get a little extra free Bitcoin for their stack. It’s been a while since Bitcoiners have seen a dividend going out. Are we back in 2017?

Exactly what I need.

Are they dropping existing coins or minting new ones ?

I am starting to consider more and more problems with participating in future airdrops, even to sell them as quickly as possible - unless maybe there might be some privacy secure ways of carrying out of such splitting off of such coins.

There just seems to have been problems with historical air drops in terms of privacy ramifications to be combining wallets/addresses and/or moving cold storage to exchanges or whatever..

[edited out]

It won't sell of immediately because it won't be trading for months and even then, would unlock very gradually (over years).
It's just another gimmick aimed of making insiders rich under the guise of "fair distribution", imho.
I would certainly NOT bother to participate with any btc accounts.

One of the problems with your plan, Biodom, is that the value of whatever airdrop might have a window "of opportunity," so it might not hold its value or be worth it after the window passes.

Is it even possible to get the level of value that happened in regards to Bcash and some of those other coins? Bcash had a decently long period with a value between 5% to 10% of a bitcoin and it even had some short periods that its value got to around 40%.. which was surely a fairly short selling opportunity. I am pretty sure I sold most of mine between something like 8% and 20%, and there might have been a few small slices that I got more than 20%, yet I am pretty sure I did not get much more than 10% after averaging out all of whatever sales I made.. and I did not overly linger around... except maybe in the first month or two in which I was trying to figure out how to do it.. yet I had sold most of mine within 3-ish months, but then there were some that were unlocked at later dates such as some of the exchanges splitting them off and giving Bcash value to their customers, including the surprise December 2017 Coinbase shenanigans where Coinbase saiid they were going to make Bcash available after the beginning of the year and then they surprisingly made Bcash available like December 19th .. a week and a half before the new year. They should have had gotten in trouble for their behaviors, even though it caused a temporary spike in the Bcash price including that they had frozen the Bcash price at some outrageously high price (while they were fixing their system). I sold those coins as fast as I could and even recommended the same to some real world buddies that were caught up in the hype of the moment and not sure which bitcoin was going to win blah blah blah.

Anyhow my point is that the high value window might be pretty short, so it can be more difficult (or impractical) to spread out your unlock.. even if there might be pump and dump anticipations that whatever shitcoin token(s) that results from the whole thing is going to have lasting value. blah blah blah.

How would this work?

I assume it works like the Hex airdrop. You will sign a message with your Bitcoin address and they will send your airdrop to an address on their chain that you specify. Then you can sell it for more Bitcoin or Ethereum… Whatever.

Fair enough.. different from a fork, yet even the Hex baloney had various timelines in which you got more value by acting quickly.. it was a part of the more sophisticated HEX scheme (or at least outright disclosure) to make Richard Hart richie, so he would not have to make any more life shots of himself crying about how unfair the markets are when he ended up on the wrong side of a trade. Most likely you, OgNasty, deserve a batslappening for promoting that nonsense in these here parts (even if you are planning to participate since you probably have not encountered some kind of pump and dumb scheme that you did not like).. .to want to get WO members excited about some distracting new scam for the insiders to unfairly siphon off value from wanna get rich quick bitcoiners.
