Has anyone successfully converted SPOT into ETH?

26 Jun 2023 1 minute read 15 comments LeftFooted

I've been trying to convert SPOT into ETH (and/or other currencies) pretty much since Publish0x started using SPOT. And my efforts haven't been particularly successful. At the time of writing, it seems that SPOT is essentially only tradable on Unis...

I'VE DONE A YOUTUBE

26 Jun 2023 1 minute read 2 comments LeftFooted

For unclear reasons, YouTube is massively penalising videos in favour of shorts. The other day, I randomly posted a short to my own personal YouTube channel and it did pretty well, despite the fact that I actually have very few subscribers. That ga...

Takeaway from the Titan debacle

Five people were killed in the underwater implosion that destroyed the Titan submersible. The plan was to take four wealthy individuals as close as you can physically get to the wreck of the Titanic. You've probably seen this all over the news. Eac...

Is Solana Saga worth the hype?

21 Jun 2023 1 minute read 0 comments LeftFooted

Solana is one of those cryptos that could go to zero and people would still believe in it. It certainly has a strong brand, strong enough that they felt in the right position to launch a mobile phone dubbed 'Saga'. I haven't bought it, chiefly beca...

About to try my first-ever launchpool, wish me luck

I'm gonna own up to something: I've never tried Binance's Launchpool features. But I'm about to. For reasons that I can't understand and can't be bothered to explore, I can't buy crypto through Binance. So I used a different platform, bought some B...

Q & A session with myself

20 Jun 2023 1 minute read 3 comments LeftFooted

What is Bitcoin? An asset. What is Ethereum? An asset that's also a platform. Is Ethereum centralised? Not yet. Is Bitcoin decentralised? Not completely. Can any crypto ever be fully decentralised? In technical terms, many of them are, in pr...

The cup of (terrible) coffee I'm drinking costs $1.77. I know it doesn't sound like a lot but A, this is a low-income country and B, it used to be $0.85 two years ago, $1.30 a year ago, $1.50 until last month. The same cafe I got the coffee from of...

Old men keep yelling at crypto, and it is our job to... JUST IGNORE THEM

14 Jun 2023 1 minute read 12 comments LeftFooted

I may come across as exceedingly confident or naive but it is absolutely clear to me but the war against crypto cannot be won. It's a losing battle, and it is baffling to me that people can't see it. I've been in the crypto space since 2016, meanin...

Is Gary G being fired?

Two House Republicans have introduced a bill to restructure the SEC and fire Gensler. They never mention Gary G by name, but the intent is clear. Warren Davidson and Tom Emmer, the representatives who authored and signed the bill, call it the 'SEC...

I just finished watching an interview with Brian Armstrong, CEO of Coinbase as you all know, and there was one thing he said that stood out to me. Speaking to the Wall Street Journal, minute 23:31, Armstrong says this: "Eventually we get to the righ...
