1 BTC = $8.2k, it’s up 735% this yr UPDATE 5/19: BTC @ $42k :damn:

market dipping, everyone prolly selling for the merge in case eth drops by a lot. but eth still holding strong. seeing the available supply back under 300k slightly. hopefully that holds. price around 7.29 on dapp. they got some dogs lending thing coming soon plus the marketing so that'll help.

Alright, it's complete - The Merge Countdown & Node Tracker - ethernodes.org - The Ethereum Network & Node Explorer

The upgrade is now live on the Ethereum Mainnet ​

 

[the bossman]

they pulled it off without wrecking the network

 

[mannyrs13]

coins still locked until next year the earliest so not like it'll have a big impact yet.

why does vitalik sound like some sort of robot that just took over the world?

I was watching just about 10 minutes of the live, this is like their moon landing. They landed, celebration. Then waiting to take the first steps, more celebration.

I’m not surprised it’s dipping here…that happens a lot when the actual event takes place/news of it leads to a sell-off…I thought there’d at least be a little pump in the days leading up to it before the sell-off…looks like this market won’t allow it tho

Railway strike averted, so that's good.

What's left of this month:
Sept 16: Mt. Gox Claims Deadline - this will be nothing
Sept 21: FOMC rate hike decision
Sept 22: Cardano’s Vasil hard fork

------------------------
Lots of red, don't see anything positive on the horizon at least in the near term. So extended buying opportunities which is fine by me. Going to focus on top crypto with nice staking % at the major exchanges. Mainly ATOM, NEAR, DOT, since those are 10%+. Right now, just going thru Coinbase or Binance. Feel comfortable there vs. sending off to Celsius like places. Still want to try staking something thru Ledger, get my feet wet.

Looks like Cosmos ATOM is the strong one, only one green for me for 1yr/7day/30day/90day

ETH

Going to try to find a video to go thru it all and explain it simply to me

So I guess right now there is:
ETH
ETH2
cbETH - Coinbase wrapped ETH
ETHW - ETHW is a token due to launch as part of EthereumPoW's plans to preserve a Proof-of-Work version
ETC - ETH Classic

I have a small portion of my ETH that I put to ETH2 when I first started because I didn't know what it was and that it would be locked up. Very small percentage so no big deal.

At Coinbase you can actually sell that ETH right now, from their site:
Want to sell or send your ETH2?
Now you can. Coinbase lets you exchange your ETH2 for a new token, called cbETH. This is called “wrapping,” which is a new concept for many people.

The page on it ------> cbETH | Coinbase Help

-------------------
Also, how many are staking ETH and where? I didn't want to because I don't like things being locked up. What if ETH when 10x, then I couldn't sell it.
ETH Staking
Coinbase - 3.25%
Binance.us - 6% - might stake some there

Sure there are other places that you can get more.
