« Last post by obsidian on Today at 04:57:13 AM »This is what I told ETH'ers all along who naively believed that 23 May it was going to happen.ETF BTC inflows have slowed down, even with Blackrock's fund. They want additional funds to flow in via the ETH ETF. Meanwhile the Asians can snap up ETH while it is still extremely undervalued relative to BTC. The SEC delaying the ETF will just mean US investors will lose the opportunity to get in at a lower floor. The rest of the world is not going to wait for them to get their shit straight.
I would be quite happy if it was accepted that there is no "alt" to BTC, but that there are an infinite number of alternatives to Eth, and they further, that Eth (obviously) is an illegally issued security, which in turn would be quite a perversion of core SEC principles and logic to allow to be listed in an ETF security (just as it would be unfathomable for XRP to be allowed to used in this way).
I expect this will all be delayed to next election. Greyscale has incentive to push for an ETH ETF. The other providers I think don't really care too much, as I think they know both volumes will be much lower, and that its ultimately dilutive to BTC.
Hong Kong's ETH ETF starts trading next week (along with their BTC ETFs). That may provide some insight to demand.
If it wasn't for the Signing of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 you would not even be using this language. Security means alarm systems, antivirus, etc. Fuck this other meaning brought in by old farts that never even saw a computer in their whole life. That shit is not applicable at all to cryptocurrencies.
I can use all your arguments against you. Bitcoin was pre-mined by Satoshi because he was the only one dominating the hashrate and hence he could mine over a million BTC in record time. That's 4.76% of the total BTC supply. Meanwhile the ETH foundation holds just 0.3% of all ETH in circulation. That's 3x less than Saylor's percentage of BTC and almost 16x less than Satoshi. Talk about being decentralized - WOW! Once the masses find out this secret along with the fact that it gives yield and is sometimes deflationary they should jump on it! LOL - who am I kidding. They will follow the FUD until the narrative changes.
The SEC's job is to protect investors. That's it. ETH is not a security at all. The "profit on the work of others" does not apply to stakers. And I can throw that argument at you and Saylor as well. You're doing nothing to develop Bitcoin, you're not maintaining it, you're not mining it. You expect the price to go up so you can profit (based on the work of others). See, I did it! I summed your shit up perfectly!

I realize over 40 classic Physique is not the Open Bodybuilding Division. I get that. However, that is still my division and, in that division, I have a great physique. Do I need to work on my posing yeah. Going out alone for the night show I was doing everything I could just not to have a panic attack there were 1k plus people out there. I am agorophobic it was terrifying I didn't hit one pose right. I was on and off the stage before they even had my music going. The prejudging was a lot better as it was slower and I wasn't alone. Do I need to dial it in better the last couple days yeah absolutely. It was almost as if I deliberately tried to mess up my physique the last 48 hours before the show. But I still had enough to win a regional level Pro Am show in my division.
Do I have the right structure and enough muscle to win a National show in the over 40 Classic Physique Division? I think I do. Obviously I would need to get diced up and learn a posing routing. But that is a lot easier to dice it up a little than to add muscle. I have enough muscle my arms and shoulders are big I am the right size for classic.
Of course if I get a pec repair that takes a year to recover that may change the time frame but I do think I have the size and shape to win a National Show in classic over 40 if I dial it in.
If I win Nationals will you all still call me delusional? Would I be considered a bodybuilder then? I doubt it. You would all say I cherry picked my class. That it was a sign the NPC had fallen. That I got lucky the other guys didn't even lift.
and after reading that you want us to believe you are some kind of tough guy?

Not looking good
This is what I told ETH'ers all along who naively believed that 23 May it was going to happen.
I would be quite happy if it was accepted that there is no "alt" to BTC, but that there are an infinite number of alternatives to Eth, and they further, that Eth (obviously) is an illegally issued security, which in turn would be quite a perversion of core SEC principles and logic to allow to be listed in an ETF security (just as it would be unfathomable for XRP to be allowed to used in this way).
I expect this will all be delayed to next election. Greyscale has incentive to push for an ETH ETF. The other providers I think don't really care too much, as I think they know both volumes will be much lower, and that its ultimately dilutive to BTC.
Hong Kong's ETH ETF starts trading next week (along with their BTC ETFs). That may provide some insight to demand.
