Only thing I got downloaded is coin base :yeshrug:

yeah thats a good start. Download Google Authenticator also if you don't have it and set up 2FA, 2 factor authentication. basically gives you a minute long code to input when making transactions that changes after the minute is up. that way if someone gets your login info they have to have access to the code which is stored on your phone. an extra bit of security. can also use it for kucoin and other exchanges. get kucoin also even if its just to have. anything that can be a backup exchange. the authenticator may be an inconvenience always having to go look for the code at times but better to be safe than deal with any issues. can also use it for social media sites, and a few other things.

far as buying, yeah btc and eth are good. i been buying eth and was doing btc before but stopped and just got back on. what i'm doing is dollar cost averaging, which means putting a bit of money over time. I was doing $100 a week but switched it to $15 a day which is 16.50 with fees. actually gotta see what my fees were at 100. actually 3 dollars now that i check so thats less than the daily so i might just switch that back. but those 2 are good and safe plays. one i really like is atom. prolly my favorite cuz of all the air drops I've gotten. that one has staking and its own ecosystem thats been growing a lot. eth has an ecosystem too but its more expensive. link is another good one but its been underperforming lately. coins were much cheaper back in 2020 but luckily everything has been dipping so you still getting in early on lots of stuff. avax also has its own ecosystem, not too familiar with all of it, but its a good one. one we mention often here but not on coinbase is fantom (ftm). i think kucoin has that one. great ecosystem.

when i got real heavy into crypto after the march 2020 crash, since i wasn't too into it before, i decided to go with cheaper coins like link and atom instead of with bitcoin. figure that getting more coins of something cheap would be better than 1 bitcoin. since the amount you put in is what determines your gains and losses. so if you put in 2k then btc has to double for you to get 4k and so on. so i like putting my eggs in different baskets and getting gains from different avenues. that way if one coin slacking, i got another to help out.

you also should get a metamask wallet. metamask.io should be the site. its a web browser extension best to do it on a pc. that one gives you access to eth, avax, and ftm ecosystems. as well as bsc but you need binance for that since their coin isn't on coinbase.

best bet would be to put in something on a consistent basis unless your risk tolerance is high and you can throw the entire stack in at once. your age and other funds will help determine that. if you're in your early 20s than its easier to take risks than if you're in your 50s. but of course it depends on each individual.

Feg hit a small dip but retested the trend line and bouncing back up. Everyone expected to become millionaires after the smart defi release as usual. Of course that wasn't going to happen. Should hopefully be back in the 8s soon enough. Gonna be a good rest of the week. :lawd:

I saw some qsp thing while browsing cb last night or night before and got some. Might dca on it for a bit. Only dca I got is btc and eth at the moment. Don't want to go too crazy and manage my funds. I'm curious to see how cb and irs and crypto in general manages capital gains. Is it based on coin or amount? Cuz I got atom that was moved from there over a year ago, but some I purchased within the last year and now what I do is convert my osmo to atom on their swap and send to cb to cash out. But I'm wondering if they count the coins first purchased as capital gains or the ones more recently. You buy 1000 coins in 2020 and then another 1000 in 2021, and start selling in 2022. What would the irs do? :jbhmm: They trying all they can to take our money so I wouldn't be surprised either way. If it's long term then I'm good for at least 40k, but short term is 12%. I'll have to start moving stuff to stable coins and keep some saved in case they try to count it as short term.

BTC actually not looking too bad. Its been trending up decently since the January low plus been staying above the 20 day moving average and riding that up. Those fib lines are the golden pocket and supposed to be important zones for support and resistance. A bounce off the red line would be helpful. Plus its almost out of the cloud, maybe another few days at most. And the moving averages are looking to cross soon. Better than January when both lines were going straight down. If it holds 43k by Friday evening, I might even give it 42.5. Then I think it'll be in a good spot. Plus that purple line I marked at the ATH and trended down with a recent touch last week and it should hopefully break above it confidently within the next week or week and a half at most. Once it gets thru the cloud, it's likely gonna fly. Just need to maintain itself these next few days. Lets see what Friday night brings us.

@KingBenji and anyone else that's new. Since you're just getting in.

CNBC: Fraudsters are using bots to drain cryptocurrency accounts.
https://www.cnbc.com/2022/02/15/crypto-fraudsters-use-robocalls-to-drain-accounts.html


Don't matter who it is, never give out your account info, 2fa code, wallet keys, or any information cuz things like this will happen. Consider everyone you come across as a scammer. Especially on twitter. I haven't tweeted anything and just reply or like comments but they see me interacting with crypto subjects and think they can try something. You'll see girls starting to follow you and their name shows Lisa but the @ shows Henri, or be some basic looking Asian bytch, and things like that. Don't click on any links you get sent from anywhere that's not a secure place, especially ones that ask you to enter any wallet info or security phrase. Just report and block is best. If a text arrives about your account being in danger or hacked, don't click the link and check for yourself or use another device if desired. Don't trust anyone out there.

yeah i don't see much of anything either, especially from their website. i do like how they are mixed in with all the different chains and getting into each one. plus the burn and reflections aspect too. chart been kind of sideways lately so hopefully it jumps back up. I see they do have something called nodes which looks to be NFTs. or some multi nodes thing. i found this article but gotta research more.
