> You're in a good place. We just have to find the next opportunity for financial freedom. This year I made good trades on DIEM and later VVV and am mostly unscathed by the current US stock market AI meltdown. Well done! I've just been riding out the rest of my ETH and living life off my primary work income. Unfortunately though you don't go into science to make money, but hey, I enjoy it and it's paying the mortgage. I made a small investment in LIT with my thinking being it will outperform between now and when the market gets frothy again. We'll see if that actually pans out though. >I don't know yet how to reposition for the current US political shift. I'm giving it some thought this week. I'd love to hear your thoughts once you've thought it all through!

That checks out with the data. Following the #1 vault left $237, while just holding BTC and ETH ended at $10,316.

Crypto has a funny way of making people impatient even when nothing significant is happening. Staking rewards might provide some income, but they don't protect against a major decline in the underlying token. My Moon activity is limited to speculative market views and that's a different risk from holding ETH over several years. I'd rather see sustained network demand than build a thesis around one quiet weekend.

ETH holding its ground after a big move seems more interesting than trying to guess the next pump. I'd be looking for whether buyers defend the previous breakout area if the market pulls back. Ethereum is one of the prices I pay attention to on Moon, but a strong chart doesn't automatically tell us what's happening with network adoption. I'd keep the short term momentum and longer term thesis separate.

am from a tier-1 college in Delhi University, pursuing an undergrad in Physics. My current cgpa is above 9.3, I have had one research internship, I had a 99.85%ile in CUET UG. Graduated high school with 99% grades. Secured AIR 9 in Physics and was also awarded the DU Merit award for exceptional cuet scores. I have been learning ML and DL from Andrew NG and undergoing a fellowship applying my learnings to a hybrid stats ml times series model. What are my realistic chances of getting into MSc in a quantitative field at Oxford,Imperial, ETH Zurich, UCLA,NTU,NUS. I would ideally want the MSC to be in a field from where it is easy to transition into quant finance so MCF Oxford, Msc Stats Sci, Msc Quant Fin etc etc. Thanks!

Were stuck between high inflation, stagflation or possible recession. I run ETH nodes and have held since 2016. No point selling now. I think Australia dropped the bag with the blockchain ASX migration years ago that got scrapped. If that was actually managed and worked it might have been a game changer for Aus and the world. Innovation is at all all time low in Australia, small businesses are crying for help, most people sub 40 with mortgage will have little to nothing to invest with the rate rises and possibly of negative equity on home. Productivity is low, think everyone will just be in survival mode for a couple of years at least. I still have hope that ETH will eventually be a public ledger and run alongside large business/banks for transparency (don't think it will 100% take over all finance, there is a place for both public and private chains). But that time is another financial crisis away, need another global melt down to rebuild in a different way. All IMO

Given cost of living, there is far less... no investing going on currently. Seeing interest rates go up, almost makes me want to turn my ETH into cash... but, fuck banks, right!

Active ETH investors from Australia?

You can short sell BtC or ETH while holding the collateral in kind. That way your effectively in cash as far as exposure goes but your not selling your coins so there is not a tax implication got opening the position. There will be an implication when you close in profit or loss relative to your entry price. I use GMX for this

The attacker spread it across 10 chains including BTC, ETH and SOL on purpose, since only the USDT and USDC legs can get frozen and anything that moved as native BTC or SOL is unrecoverable. Tether already froze about $4.5M of USDT

Well, even at $1k you are buying ETH at over 320,000% above ICO price. So yea it can absolutely go there.

Save ur bags 💰…. This thing is a spring board, patience is so key in ANY game. LIFE itself requires patience, in a decade i guarantee u ETH will be double @ a MINIMUM… possibly x4+ I said the same thing when I was able to buy ETH for $500-650. I stupidly was selling on the way up, now I’ll HODL For LONG LONG time, like V long time

comparing the security cost to the market cap does not make sense because a successful exploit would kill bitcoin and send it to zero. so as pricecrises the cost of exploit rises and the reward of success remains the same at zero. Yes you could short instead but you can only short or get funded for perps or options on a small fraction of the market cap so again you can't get a reward exceeding the cost of exploit. Ethereum however.. if you controlled enough validators, you can compromise non ETH tokens such as RWA and stables. So even if you crashed ETH you mght get something else. Still less than cost of exploit but more than you would get from a 51% attack on bitcoin.

cool, couple things here. Less important: Next halving is 2028, then 2032 so it's in a bit less than 6 years.. More important: You can make money on the way down.. If someone can make the price "plummet" they can make a large amount of money getting exposure to the downside. Big incentive. Most important: The BTC price itself doesn't matter for security, this is a very common mistake people make when thinking about this issue because they think in USD. If BTC goes to $1m, the marketcap will be $25T. How much money does Bitcoin need to spend to have a sufficient amount of security? The answer is a lot more.. (linearly more so!) which means you shouldn't look at Bitcoin's security budget in terms of USD but in terms of BTC. I recommend reading the "Common Fallacies" section of [budget.day](http://budget.day) as that also includes classics such as "the hashrate is growing, that means everything is okay!" Why do you think that the BTC price would go up if a 51% is attempted on bitcoin? I get it on ETH because they need to buy ETH to do it, but BTC? surely that's just plain bearish?

**Paper backing from the company's balance sheet does not mean immediate user liquidity.** If Binance does not have those specific coins physically sitting in their operational hot wallets, the "Withdraw" button remains greyed out or blocked for users. Here is how the situation breaks down into reality right now: * **Liquid Crypto (BTC, ETH, Stablecoins):** Binance has already moved physical coins into new hot wallets. Illiquid Altcoins (The missing \~5%): This is exactly where the bottleneck happens. Binance has guaranteed the funds to buy them back, but until they physically source and deposit them into the withdrawal wallets, **users cannot withdraw them!**

Stop counting with fiat and count with BTC. 1 BTC went from 35,5 ETH to 33,8 so ETH increased in BTC

Dumped 35 ETH's on Friday. I'm done after buy in in June

Hab vor ziemlich genau 6 Jahren gedacht, dass ich meine, zu der Zeit BTC, Link und ETH, Positionen vergrößern könnte, indem ich bei kurz vor 20k $ verkaufe und nach der ersten Rejection niedriger einkaufen kann. Hatte zu dem Zeitpunkt bissle über nen halben BTC, 10 ETH und noch 400 Link. Ende vom Lied, ich hab verkauft und der Markt ist einfach weiter nach oben und ich saß auf USDT und hab keine Rendite gemacht und auf meine Einkaufspreise ist Krypto auch nicht mehr gefallen. Effektiv für vielleicht 1-3k die ich extra hätte haben können zum jetzigen Zeitpunkt circa 50k liegen gelassen. Am letzten Peak waren es sogar mehr als 100k... Seit dem mache ich nur noch mit kleinen Mengen Trading aus Spaß und halte sonst nur langfristig. Muss mir irgendwann wirklich noch Gedanken machen unter welchen Umständen ich sowohl bei Krypto und Aktien mal was verkaufen würde, aber neben dem seither ziemlich gut verlaufen.

Honestly the "10+ chains" detail is the part that worries me most 😬 A single buggy contract usually hits one chain. Wallets drained on that many chains at once sounds more like someone got signing access to the hot wallets themselves, though that's just my read until they publish a proper post-mortem. What I'd watch from here: - The reopening date. "No customer lost money" only really means something once withdrawals are open again and people can actually pull their funds. - Whether they explain what was hit and how. A clear post-mortem plus how much they keep in hot vs cold storage tells you far more than a reassuring statement. - Where the roughly $8M in ETH ends up. If it starts moving through mixers or bridges quickly, recovery odds drop a lot. On the bigger question, I wouldn't read three incidents in a week as proof that every exchange is about to fail. It is a good reminder that "the exchange will cover it" is a promise, not a guarantee. Keeping only what you're actively trading on an exchange and the rest in a wallet you control is boring, but it's the setup that doesn't depend on someone else's security team 👀
