Ever wanted to buy into a coin, at least partially due to its return on investment from staking, only to learn that you can only stake said coin from a fundamentally insecure hardware wallet on your own

Believe it or not, despite my strong support for our collective foray into distributed-ledger (blockchain) technology, I'm quite the fan of gold. No, not that Gold. Gold has a 6000+ year history of

The state of the scientific community today is really not what it should be. Funding for many hard sciences is at historic lows (particularly those sciences which cannot produce lethal military weaponry,

Stay Get Classy, Verge/PornHub. Well, the partnership is in...and much like Vice and Bunny Token, it's doing nothing for me. Honest. Verge coin's community is weird. I'd say it's the meme-iest coin since

See my article on deducting crypto Ponzi losses in 2017 before tax laws change. Regulars to my blog will attest to my lack of love for taxes, but I do always advise others that they should default to paying

I knew there would be a hydrogen silver lining. I know it seems like all bad news when you get suckered. But unlike that time my fiancee rented an apartment in NYC that didn't exist from a scammer with

CryptoBridge is a new player to the scene, and unlike some other decentralized exchanges around these parts I will hesitate to defame, the interface does not make me weep for the wasted potential of the

Could be worse. Regardless of whether we like it or not, bid-bots appear to be here to stay, at least for the foreseeable future. This is the natural and logical result of refusing to fix the enormous

But, at least you get 48 more hours to spend with the artist formerly known as "your money." It's that lovely time of the year in the US when the IRS comes a calling. This year, it's April 17th,

The Nex Dex has a certain ring to it. Decentralized exchanges are rapidly springing up left and right, and for good reason. Barely a week goes by that we don't hear about some new hack or data breach at

With any luck for Verge holders, this is not a case of "buy the rumor, sell the news." Repeat after me - Gaps get filled, divergences get resolved. In the past, I've written on Verge Coin (XVG)

Good, because I'm tired of the long stairway down. This is the largest 1-hour candle I could find in the data set going back in 2018, and going by my crude-eyeball estimation of the charts below, I'd say

Actually, it's even worse than that. Back before I wrote regularly about cryptocurrency, I wrote regularly about government debt. In between posting images like the one above, I'd post all sorts of scary

$1.3M for this? It's hard to believe less than a mere 5 years ago, a vicious scramble at the "Taxi Medallion Auction" would result in a market clearing price of $1,300,000 simply for the right

With all the personal attacks and drama on Steemit recently (particularly in the trending page), it's a good idea to remember the one thing you can (sort of) do about it at the micro level. Vote. Now,

It's raining cats and dogs in here. Yet another "reward pool argument" is brewing on the trending pages of Steemit. After failing to make bot owners the villains publicly responsible for the

You don't hear much about the precious metals markets in the mainstream, and believe me, this is by design. After all, the band doesn't stop playing just because you've hit an iceberg - in fact, it has

Because that's how you talk to the constitutents at whose leisure you serve...when you are at the tail end of the height of a despotic empire. America sucks. It's getting hard to mince words about this

Monero, as of April 6th, has successfully undertaken a hard fork to avoid the much-maligned release of Bitmain's new Asic miner specialized for Monero, the Antminer X-3. Followers of my blog will know

It's just like his vulture-senses to kick in as the cryptocurrency market closes the books on its worst quarter, ever. George Soros finally found another place to stick his oversized, carrion-bird nose
