DBT, what's going on with the major coins right now?

Lots of volatility but I really only follow BTC and ETH now, with ETH being like 5% of my portfolio.

Something of interest is that we might have a reorg if one of the bigger pools doesn't get the halving block. So they may try and do a reorg if it's one of the bigger pools that has a large percentage of the hash rate.

Is this good or bad for my money?

Has no impact. Basically the sats in the halving block will be worth a lot more because of the significance of the block.

Kaspa? Never even heard of it until 45 seconds ago. Quick google search says it’s a crap coin that doesn’t solve anything already solved by bitcoin and the lightning network. Bitcoin is king and there is no second best. Just buy bitcoin.

Unless you hold a shitload of TRX and IOST......then hold until you can sell for a profit and then buy BTC.  :cheers:

Was just going back through my early purchases and these were my first two buys of BTC and ETH when I was getting used to CoinBase.  Man what I would do to buy again at those prices :lol:
