Hello. I am here for the ethfinance from reddit. Tbh I sold and I am done u til we see how the court cases end up. May take years. Can't risk my money during this financial environment.
Fair enough, always good to manage your risk and enjoy profits! Just keep in mind some of the most unexpected rallies occur during the most fearful times, the "crypto is dead" phase of the market. Or as Wall Street says, the market can "climb the wall of worry."
Unfortunately their mobile apps are still under heavy development and I couldn't even find the repo. Luckily the site renders pretty decently on mobile.
It's very much the beta, wild west stage of KBin (and all the fediverse really). A mixture of excitement at a new web frontier and anxiety for sure. This feels like 2004/2005 to me.
edit: i should add -- and i'll talk more about this as the magazine (subreddit) / mag begins to fill out... the whole point of KBin, Lemmy, and the entire fediverse is that it's all connected. think of it less like reddit vs twitter and more like... Gmail vs Yahoo Mail, in that all the content can be read by any program you prefer. so, there are apps available for the Mastodon (federated Twitter) protocol such as Mammoth, Tusker, and tusky. and you can read Lemmy/KBin threads on those apps, just formatted for Mastodon. might not be ideal but it's a start! we're very early to all this so it's new to us all! share any tips you come across too
With my only real remaining "event" being the fed rate cut and that being delayed now at least a year, it seems to align with a final bull run for crypto before a secular bear. By that I mean what I've theorized for a while -- that BTC would have a new, lackluster top ~100k and ETH would have a grand blowoff $10k-15k -- could happen in this timeframe.
2019 (wave 1 bull, flat to dippy) -- 2020 (wave 2 boring then parabola begins) -- 2021 (wave 3 parabolic rise and disbelief blowoff top).
2023 (wave 1 bull, flat to dippy) -- 2024 (wave 2 boring then parabola begins) -- 2025 (wave 3 parabolic rise and disbelief blowoff top).
Can we rely on market "traditions" like secular bulls/bears when crypto will just be getting it's legs and becoming more of an actual utility with real businesses and ways to actually prove to the world that it is worth a damn right when you're suspecting we enter a years long bear market? I can only imagine we'll be seeing lots of great adoption over the next few years, we're already seeing a lot of good development compared to previous bear market development. It would be like the dotcom bubble busting the moment people realized the internet actually isn't worthless rather than the other way around.
When I think of it like the dotcom bubble it feels more like the real crypto bubble hasn't truly begun, or maybe I've had too much koolaid.
Personally, I've learned to keep the tech and the market separate in my mind as an investor.

Unfortunately, we've been saying this for eight years now (I was around before the EEA press releases) and it just doesn't seem to matter. The tech is always moving forward, but the market reaction to it from an industrial perspective is as cyclical as always.
Definitely overloaded. Every instance across the protocol is unfortunately. It's gonna be a rough few days/weeks as servers get spun up. But it's... low-key exciting? Idk to me it feels like the first "new" thing on the internet in well over a decade. I know it's not new new, but it went mostly unused since creation.
And yes, we're currently contributing to that. We're on the KBin.social instance, not a self-hosted one. I was having a tough time spinning up the Lemmy instance on a secure site and I wanted something for us on the 12th so folks could gather. It's far from ideal.
Just want to say thanks for doing the work here. I'll mostly continue to lurk/mooch. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I owe pretty much all my success in this space to other people's hard work.

I wish I had some webmaster skills to set it up myself, or some social skills to pull a community over, but I have neither. 😂 Trying out kbin for a day on the 12th is a good idea, I love it! 👍
For sure, I was not at all what could be called server admin / webmaster / moderator prior to this week. I've learned an insane amount in a few short days and we can learn together!
This website combines the best parts of Twitter, with the best parts of Reddit. [...] This website takes the best of both worlds where you can both follow the people you love, and have great, in-depth conversations with them and others.
Soo... it's like Twitter (=posts) in the left column, and reddit (=discussions) in the right column?
