Absolutely. World politics drives economic ups and downs. Bitcoin amd cryptocurrency as a whole included. Im still not sure if bitcoin would be inverse of tradutional markets (i.e. when stocks go up people move out of…

They do not have switches on them. Regarding the switch, I can not tell you. As long as there is no sudden peak in current to the miners it should be fine.

If you switch them off locally, it is not a problem. Damages are possible, when they cut power on the whole line. Or on a general blackout.

It is not that simple: For the longevity of the miner, it is better to have it shut down when it is cooled a bit. For that, the fans should run while the hashboards stop mining. You can use the "Sleep" or "Standby" mode…

I'm with you. These multi month pre order timelines are killer. I get it and know it's a business for them and preorders are a thing of the norm, but 4 months is just too long in crypto to figure out if it's worth it to…

Honestly i never try to hit the complete bottoms when buying or complete tops when selling. My goal is to hit the top 20% or bottom 20%. Thats a win for me. And usually im always trying to dollar cost average in when…

Im a huge fan of DCA in terms of crypto. It protects ypur downside risk by not going all in and it suddenly drops but it gives ypu the ability to get in on some gains if it rises quickly. As a method of buying bitcoin…

It will probably be something we don't even know about. In 2015 you couldn't predict that masternode coins would run wild in 2017, nor in 2019 could you predict that every meme coin would have a run. This is how you…

I don't get this comment. What about mining is a law in El Salvador, and how would that make it easier. I was only commenting that governed entities mining can do so at a loss and continue essentially weeding out the…

Anything that is profit worthy will steal those energy sources. Imagine they really start mining like crazy. Probably a long shot since they would probably just want to buy and hold bitcoin instead of mining the…

Sure It can become unprofitable, well at least a huuuuuge roi drag. I mean if governments are willing to spend $600 on a hammer what's stopping from paying $10k for an s9. If governments who are not bottom line driven…

So, El Salvador just kicked off bitcoin mining using volcanoes, and they've already pulled in like $269. I can't help but think this might signal the start of a decline in mining profitability for bitcoin. Governments…

Generally speaking we are just in a bullish market. There will be ups and downs but if you look at the 200 day moving average we are sitting good. I dont think a single event moves price on bitcoin like it used to. The…

I see these posts pop up a lot. Yeah i mean this is the nature of crypto markets. When everything is doom and gloom you likely should buy. I think its a great buy in position right now. If you are a little more risk…

Agreed. Continuing to dollar cost average and buy and you would be in profit at least for bitcoin. But there is plenty of money to be made on alts if you know what you are doing. I wouldn't recommend a large portion of…

For me no i dont think trading crypto can replace not having another income source, unless you have money tucked away that you can live on for an extremely long time. Trading crypto especially is still way to volitile…

Gamblers be gambling. Pwople lose bug and win big on margin this is just another one of those bets. No one has insight i to exactly what bitcoin will do. Maybe back in the day when you can manipulate the market some but…

I completely forgot about that coin. I remember when they came out and mimblewimble was all the latest rage. There was another coin that was it's competitor I forget it now but the 2 of them ran in price so quick.…

Yep agreed. They need to still male it more user friendly amd in my head even more important they need to clear the tax implecations for each transaction. As it stands today using crypto in the US trips a tax event. So…

I should have been more carefull in my post mentioning the warning message. Hopefully the inaccuracy is now properly corrected. I once checked the passphrase for a copy of the encrypted wallet.dat file by "changing" the…
