ETH, the booty call

10 Sep 2020 3 minute read 4 comments Spitkitten

Ugh. It's been a bit of time since my last post, where I bemoaned my flagging relationship with Ethereum,  got some great responses -- my fave being from @stackingcats, re: keeping ETH as a booty call. It's not only funny -- it's wise. And here's why...

Breaking up is hard to do

3 Sep 2020 2 minute read 14 comments Spitkitten

I need some relationship counseling. I've been in this one relationship for a few months now. At first, everything seemed perfect. Loving. Solid. With plenty of room for growth, you know?  It felt like the relationship could and would go somewhere. I...

Stake & bake: getting more crypto

1 Sep 2020 2 minute read 6 comments Spitkitten

I'm staking Tezos. It's cool. My Tezos are magically making more Tezos. In my Trust Wallet (along with a buncha other wallets and exchanges, likewise), I don't even have to do anything except designate my # of Tezos, hit "stake" and then, sit back an...

DeFi alive!: the birth of $MEME

1 Sep 2020 1 minute read 8 comments Spitkitten

Last post, I shared my joy over a stupid joke. And I gotta say, the further I get into this crypto hedge maze, the more I appreciate the sense of humor (most) of the community shares, on the regular.  Like the $MEME stuff. Did you catch this, late la...

Faucet trolling: tell me it ain't true, Ripple!

28 Aug 2020 1 minute read 5 comments Spitkitten

Those of you who've peeked at this blog, know that I'm a reluctant devotee of faucets. Not because faucets are awesome, really, but because I'm starting out and wanted initially -- and am still square in "initial" -- to see how much crypto I could sc...

An off-topic PSA from my cat

25 Aug 2020 1 minute read 8 comments Spitkitten

  He wouldn't stop yelling until I shared on my platforms. Raise awareness!  What do we want? FOOD NOW! When do we want it? NOW FOOD! He's a really brave, inspirational survivor.

Death comes for us all, maybe

24 Aug 2020 2 minute read 6 comments Spitkitten

I want to talk about death. I'm going to die one day, probably*. More than likely*, so will you (sorry). * remember, I'm a sci fi writer. And I'm in total denial. You know how that goes I have a teeny portfolio of crypto (not to humblebrag or anyth...

Taking skin: the IRS' 2020 crypto reckoning

24 Aug 2020 2 minute read 6 comments Spitkitten

The only difference between a tax man and a taxidermist is that the taxidermist leaves the skin.--Mark Twain Not that I'm a lawful good tax lover or anything, but I've seen, first hand, on multiple occasions, the emotional dumpster fire of an audit...

Dusting attacks: the dirty side of dust

22 Aug 2020 3 minute read 5 comments Spitkitten

Last post, I talked about dust. Now, let's get dirty and discuss dusting attacks. The intention is nefarious -- to get ahold of your personal info via your KTCs with all the companies you do your crypto business with. That's not the amusing bit. What...

All the dirt on crypto dust

21 Aug 2020 2 minute read 5 comments Spitkitten

I'm no clean freak, but ugh @ dust -- both the regular kind (like 95% or so of dead skin, blegh) and the crypto kind. At least I can dustbust up my bio detritus. I dunno what I'm going to do with the crypto dustbunnies hiding in the corners of my acc...
