I decided to start a new blog on a semi regular basis to cover things i find out while browsing the crypto space and and talk about things i find interesting)
Todays entry: Crypto Surfing 6/18/2018 (Coinbase Pro, Start up projects, HODL pains)
--Morning--
I woke up this morning and checked bitcoin and my portfolio, nothing really changed since the weekend... I am pretty optimistic about the market recovering at some point but lately i have been thinking of selling off my store of value coins when it is a better time to take profit and only to buy things that serve other functions
-- new Ark video--
Last night I posted a video about the new Ark Mobile wallet and how to stake. i worked alot on that, taking so many screenshots of my phone screen as a user would see it took forever but since i got a new computer things were faster on the production side. 6 views! haha atleast i have fun doing it.
--eos main net--
so i am not really sure if i can buy more eos yet or if i am buying garbage coins... i registered my wallet but the question remains to me... what am i supposed to buy now, is there an eos main net token?
--education for the day--
i checked out the new modern investor and data dash videos today at lunch. MI is some what of a hype and ripple guy in my opinion but he does a really good job of announcing breaking news from a global perspective and works really hard at finding information. Nick started to talk about other more traditional markets which i think i may want to take advantage of. Gold and silver are looking good on a TA perspective but im not sure nick talking less about crypto is a good sign... but then again crypto markets are driven alot by news... he's a busy guy and probably just keeps his eyes on where to make the next buck as a trader. I hope thats all it is.
--bitcoin spike--
in the picture below, bitcoin had a major spike today. a $400 jump up is impressive in this market right now. maybe it is a good sign of things to come. lately i have heard nothing but positive and progressive news in the media but something weird is going on, usually this would propel the market up. i still think regulation is holding people back. it definetly put alot of stress on me around tax time earlier this year because there is so little to go by about what is the law and what is'nt and how to interpret it.
--coinbase pro--
Gdax is changing to coinbase pro. i think it was a smart move for name consistency. on the twitter announcement they gave out their customer service number... coinbase gets alot of shit for not having more coins, but how many times have you seen other exchanges give you a person to call when you need help! i appreciate it.
--crypto bolts project on hold--
i have been working on this project called crypto bolts with a guy who writes for CoinCentral but he has been having some communication issues lately. he's busy. its a cool project and would develkope into a great news poirtal, we got the site functional and it will show some progress but he let me know that the project is on hold for now. we'll see what happens. it has been good experience as a product developer so far.
--looking forward--
if the market continues to crazy lows ill be buying again. i will have my eye on protocols, ripple, golem, bancor, neo and stellar, no promises. neo is sweat because you can earn gas and its a popular protocol... crypto is nuts.
