Pulse.io is advising its customers to withdraw all digital funds from the site "as soon as possible," after announcing it'll shut down completely on June 26.

The online souk, which matched bitcoin (BTC) and bitcoin cash (BCH) users who wanted to buy Amazon gift cards at a discount and sellers that wanted cryptocurrency, said on Thursday that no new accounts will be allowed. On April 23 no new deals between buyers and sellers will be allowed, and all current transactions will be completed or terminated by the June 26 deadline.

I sold my final holdings during this latest rise. Not in it for this ride anymore. Too stressful and life is enough.

Got around $200 for what would've been about half that not too long ago, so not bad.

Check out Gemini and Binance as well, also great choices.

Nicehash seems to be behaving strangely. I haven't received a payment in a while, even though my unpaid balance keeps resetting to 0. So, I updated to the latest Nicehash Legacy (held on to an old version for a while because I had issues with the newest one at the time) and now my unpaid balance isn't moving from 0 at all. Hopefully they're not up to shenanigans...

We get it, a halving is coming.

I don't see it working out well for bitcoin this time. Too many people were burned in the last bull rush to get back onboard and drive it back up. I could be wrong, but I won't be betting on it this time.

Bitcoin Price ‘Likely’ To Pass $10,000 Before Halving

Why? Economies opening up again makes cryptocurrencies unattractive.

Halving is a means to artificially inflate the value of it. New Bitcoin discovery is already painfully slow (and wasteful)...I don't see the point.

Seems to me like fools are about to get fooled again.

I don't see how the current state of the world would be good or bad for cryptocurrency in any special way. All economies are taking a hit. If you can't buy something with regular money, then similarly there's no opportunity to buy it with crypto either.

trog100 · May 5, 2020

it more about a store of value hat than buying stuff.. excessive fed money in theory will debase the value of the dollar.. the stock markets will go down more and money has to be parked somewhere..

gold silver and crypto being the obvious choices..

With so many out of work, I'm thinking the money that used to be flowing is just sitting with the businesses that are inactive. That business also isn't producing anything, whether it's a factory, or a service... so there's no money moving there, either. The economy is largely stalled. Nobody is working and there's nothing to buy, except the essentials, like food. There's nothing going on, so there's nothing to spend money on in the first place. This should be a negative thing all around, so I don't see crypto being any different.

The dollar is deflating meaning it's going up in value. It's better to keep liquid money than invest in something risky like crypto or even stocks. Bonds are the best investments during deflation but it's really smart to keep a liquid buffer against the economy because raises are unlikely for a long time.

trog100 · May 5, 2020

the experts seem to be torn between inflation and deflation.. the fed is artificially keeping the stock market afloat.. how long they can keep doing that for is unknown..

basically we are in uncharted waters.. money printing is inflationary.. people not buying anything is deflationary.. a lot of the crypto mining hardware will soon be obsolete.. i think we really are in who the -ck knows land.. he he
