So I bought 5 ETH @1200 back in like January of last year, and I've seen some gains but problem is I bought them on robinhood and now I can't stake. Any suggestions? submitted by /u/thesmoothgoat [link] [comments]

Around 4-5 months ago, this subs favorite low market cap coin was Ergo (ERG). During its hype it was hovering around $14-$18, a few months later and it’s down at $4 – down more than 70% from its ATH. This is an even better post about this topic. As you can see, when OP made…

I was looking into staking with Rocketpool and I can´t figure the math on how can we actually get returns: Amount to deposit = 4 ETH Calculated Anual yield (~4%) = 0,16ETH Fees to deposit = ~0,09 (~0,18 if you calculate also the withdraw). ​ Additionally I assume the price of rETH and liquidity is…

Here is the problem as I see it: There is a semantic difference between a staker and a validator.…

While Bitcoin continues to take a beating in terms of dollars, the top cryptocurrency also continues to lose its share over the market cap. In fact, with the most recent support level breached, BTC dominance could be targeting historic lows. Historic lows in BTC dominance could mean that an altcoin season unlike ever before is potentially ahead. Here’s a closer look at the metric that weighs Bitcoin against the rest of the crypto space and how it could impact altcoin performance. Bitcoin Continues To Lose Cryptocurrency Market Dominance At one point, there was only Bitcoin. As the industry grew, a metric was born called BTC dominance that made it more clear how much weight the top coin had compared to the rest of the market. Prior to 2017, Bitcoin accounted for as much as 95% of the entire cryptocurrency market, but fell to a low of 35% less than a year later during what is considered to be the greatest altcoin season on record. Related Reading | 2022: The Year The Secular Bitcoin Bull Run Could End After reaching such extremes in 2018, by 2020, Bitcoin had recovered more than two-thirds of the market cap. Dominance topped out near 70% where it sharply reversed all throughout 2021. At the close of the 2021 yearly candle, a several year trading range was officially breached. The well defined range is even more visible in the six-month BTC.D chart. And it could create the conditions necessary for an unprecedented altcoin season.

A descending triangle could target 32% dominance | Source: CRYPTOCAP-BTC.D on TradingView.com With a potential descending triangle breaking down, the measure rule would make the target of the structure around 32% dominance. The target would suggest a move beyond the former historic low set years ago – and create the atmosphere needed for the aforementioned altcoin season mania. But it all could come at the expense of Bitcoin and its undisputed reign as the number one cryptocurrency by market cap.

Kosovo has banned crypto mining on Tuesday in an effort to reduce electricity use as the country grapples with its worst energy crisis in a decade as a result of electricity disruptions. Kosovo Bans Crypto Mining Operations Due to electricity shortages during the winter season, the government of Kosovo has decided to stop crypto mining in the country. According to a report by local newspaper Gazeta Express, Kosovo’s Minister of Economy, Artane Rizvanolli, has decided to ban crypto mining following a recommendation from the Technical Committee on Emergency Measures for Energy Supply. The government made the decision after Kosovo’s energy supply fell below the required level, and it began imposing electric power cutbacks during high usage hours, according to the article. Law enforcement authorities are expected to intervene to block the manufacture of crypto currencies, and try to locate places where such operations take place. Economy and Energy Minister Artane Rizvanolli said in a statement: “All law enforcement agencies will stop the production of this activity in cooperation with other relevant institutions that will identify the locations where there is cryptocurrency production.” In reaction to the problem, the administration has decided to form a technical committee to evaluate emergency energy supply strategies, according to Rizvanolli. Last week, the government decided to take immediate actions in response to the committee’s recommendations, including prohibiting crypto mining over Kosovo’s borders. BTC/USD still below $50k.

Winter Is Coming According to Gazeta Express, the government declared a state of emergency in December for 60 days, allowing it to allocate more money for energy imports and implement power cutbacks. Low supplies from Russia revived fears of an energy shortage as the colder winter approaches, sending European gas prices soaring by more than 30% on Tuesday. One miner, who requested anonymity and owns 40 GPUs (Graphics Processing Units), told Reuters that he spends roughly 170 euros per month on power and makes around 2,400 euros per month from mining. Cryptocurrency mining has become more popular in northercrypto kosovo, which is primarily populated by Serbs who refuse to pay power bills because they do not recognize Kosovo’s independence. The 1.8 million population-strong country now imports more than 40% of its energy, with significant demand in the winter when inhabitants mostly use power for heating. The energy emergency measures may look draconian, but they are the result of years of energy problems in Kosovo, which have manifested themselves in blackouts across the country and have been aggravated by a severe lack of control and a slumping economy. While crypto miners have been able to take advantage of the low-cost energy, crypto mining’s high electricity usage is incompatible with a country that is experiencing widespread power outages and a sector of the country that has only recently began to pay for its electricity.

I am not the one to shill projects but as I was writing a post about interoperability the other day Cosmos surged in price. Cosmos has been one of very few coins to pump like crazy (I am talking 9% to 20% on the daily) while the market experienced huge dips. At the same time,…
