Daily Crypto Markets Live Blog: The Quest For 10K Comments Continues (06/10/22)

avatar
(Edited)

image.png

Here is the post for the Daily Leo Talk. In preparation for the upcoming Microblogging features, this is a good place to start conversations, posts charts, memes, trades, or anything else that comes to mind.

Let us boost our overall numbers by posting lots of comments throughout the day. Spread the word to get others involved.

It is a great way to stimulate engagement.

We can think of this as a Reddit type engagement thread. We are not dealing with long form content so topics of discussion can start off with a top line comment. We can fill in from there.

We are open 24/7/365.

Today was my 100 CANDIE day.

I am on the top of the mountain. And tomorrow, I will be in the toilet.

From 100 down to 10 is just starting over-- that's OK.

From any other number down to 10-- not the toilet, but not a good thing, either.

To be at the toilet, consume a bottle of ipecac or buy UST.

UST is TerraUSD, companion stablecoin to Terra (LUNA). USDT is Tether, a different stablecoin and the #3 overall leader in market cap.

Maybe I have to start doing that. Ok it is different when all works fine. But lately it doesn’t and it’s cost so much more effort to figure things out.

Thanks a lot. I just have one more doubt. After I checked this tool, I found that it is displaying the old data, I mean 2021. I tried to select 2022, but it does not have any option. You can see there is no option to check after July 2021. Does it display the real-time data or at least with a lag of one day or two days?? Or maybe something I am missing. Please educate me on this. I appreciate your time.

If we use stablecoins as a stepping stone to buy other altcoins, we just do likewise with HBD: use HBD to buy a SWAP-coin before we withdraw.

Certainly, there are a lot of uses for HBD. We need to keep expanding the use cases for it.

We really need to push value towards both coins.

If there's one thing I've learned since 2008, it's that laws once meant only for "certain situations" eventually end up being used in "all" situations. This came to pass with the more questionable provisions of USA PATRIOT Act and the income tax amendment to the US Constitution which was meant "only" for those who "qualified" until that came to mean the effectively "everyone" qualified. Even Social Security Numbers-- once meant to be used only for Social Security purposes-- ended up being used as de facto ID numbers throughout society.

I want to believe that cryptocurrency and specifically HBD are beyond reach of government regulation, but a government hellbent on extracting its pound of flesh will get its pound of flesh one way or another. Even if the effort ends up a failure, it has the means to make life a living hell for the population living under its jurisdiction.

They simply adjust the numbers to encompass more people. It is really that simple.

Few realize the income tax act was only meant to be "for the rich". This is why those who support the "tax on unrealized gains" are total assholes. They claim well it is good to tax the rich. Even if that were the case, in 20 years it will be a tax on everyone.

That's exactly my point. What starts as something targeted to a small number of people ends up being used on all of us. Then instead of going away once the "mission accomplished" or a "sunset clause" moment is reached, the tax is kept in place as a source of revenue and we're suckers for not paying attention.

At the federal level, government generally receives more in taxes each year that in previous years. Yet national debt grows unsustainably. As bad as government taxation is on us, what's even worse is government spending taking place at a rate which exceeds incoming tax receipts.

Revolutions have started for lesser reasons.

I believe it gets magnified when you have developers involved.

Whatever they set down, we can code around. It is why, I feel, they havent had much success against megatech. Whatever regulations they draw up, code is changed to be exempt.

That is the key to decentralization.

There is nothing they can do to HBD. It is simply out of their reach.

It is the lesson from the Eurodollar system. The Fed, USG, nor NY State can do nothing about it.

Technically, isn't he right? Wouldn't his also include buying on margin?

We shouldn't buy anything with borrowed money. Not only does borrowed money need to be repaid, it needs to be repaid with interest.

Whatever we buy, we should buy with money we can afford to lose (never buy with rent money, milk money, etc.)

Once I figure out how to connect to HiveSQL, then I need to figure out which tables have the info I need to create the queries which can answer questions we care about such as these:

  • At what date/time did we reach 100M posts?
  • What was post count at the moment a new edition of DCMLB was posted?
  • What is the difference in post count between today and yesterday? This is what we've been trying to figure out, and all "posts" I've made here have been approximations
  • What is the difference in post count between today and last week? 2 weeks ago? 1 month ago? etc.
  • Based on any 2 dates, what was the MAX difference? MIN difference?

It's not difficult to make the queries once the HiveSQL syntax is understood, but sometimes the info isn't where we think it is; or we get the logic wrong in forming the query.

Until I can get these questions and figured out, I'll keep putting up the screen captures.

Neal Stephenson, the “father” of Metaverse should have thanked first the policymakers instead of the gaming sector for their lockdown policy. Though not part of their original intention, this made P2E to be a global trend as a result of such a policy. Moreover, the guy is “too cutting edge” for launching LAMINA1, a metaverse-focused blockchain project.

No forecasting is near impossible. That is why traders have stop-losses in place, because moves are not always how they expect.

That said, we know what the overall macro environment is like. How much a role does that play in the markets is what is really unknown.

To me, BTC and crypto will follow equities. If they get crushed, we are still in a risk off environment.

Though Adam Moserri, the design thinker and head of Instagram thinks of tokens as equity or shares, the ideas he shared posted on Ted Talk last month confirm what blockchain and crypto advocates have been saying for years. He talks about cryptocurrency, social tokens, NFTS, DAO, and smart contracts. He describes them as a group of ideas known in the industry as Web 3. He acknowledges that every one of these is built on a foundation called a blockchain. Through this technology, he dreams of a world where the original promise of the Internet is realized and power is pushed away from the establishment to what he describes as "creators," individuals whose personality is their brand. He concluded his talk with this inspiring statement:

We will create a world where anyone with compelling ideas can turn their passion into a living and at the same time, effect possibly the greatest transfer of power from the institutions to individuals in all of history.

Even more importantly, how many people making a few hundred grand will come from this? That is the key. Uplifting all of humanity. The biggest impact always comes from the bottom.

You are writing about the Eurodollar system. Just consider what is in there. There are trillions of dollars of trilateral loans through Repo. We have no idea of the bilateral but my guess is tens of trillions. And that is just daily activity.

What the total value of that? We know there are at least $750 trillion in derivatives alone. Add in FX reserve, cross border payment liabilities, international debt securities, and OTC FX transmissions and what do you get?

A shit ton of money in all it various forms.

I seem to take this for granted, but I think you're right. What matters is not the "big thing." For many, just making thousands or hundreds of USD from crypto is already big.

"Tens of trillions," just for daily activity? That's really beyond comprehension for a new reader of the Eurodollar market. However, somehow this gives us a reference for the amount of wealth that can be created in the crypto space.

The Repo market is $3-$4T per day. That is what the custodian (Bank of NY Mellon) and the primary dealers report.

What happens with the bilateral agreements? We honestly can only guess. There is no way to track an overnight agreement between a bank in Cyprus and one in the UAE.

What we do know is there is a collateral shortage and pristine collateral is US Treasuries. There is about $@0 trillion of those out there and there is a shortage.

So how much is being done each day? We can only guess.

Yes but he did mentioned how it was going to put them in a stronger position and still be used. He cannot see a day without them.

Interesting how he feels that the traffic will still be on the Facebook family of apps. An insider bias? Maybe.

It is just a matter of time. I think I saw you posting about Facebook's market price suffering a huge decline. A month ago, I saw in the news that they blame TikTok for a similar drop in price. I am tempted to think that perhaps people are beginning to realize the real character of Web 2.0 and are now shifting their interest to anything they heard about Web 3.0 whether for real or not.

Inflation hit another high. I am not sure why people were surprised. The last read saw a decline in the price of fuel as compared to the month before. This was not the case in May.

Have no fear. The talking points will be radically different by the end of the year. We are going to see a massive shift and those who think inflation is bad, wait until you get a massive dose of deflation.
