Ethereum just passed $1900! Goddamn that took a while.

Bitboy reckons it was mining giant f2pool sellling off so they could buy the dips to maximize their gains. Along with institutional investors trying to get it at a lower price. Fundamentals for Ethereum is good so it should have gone past $2000 a few weeks ago.

Don't mind buying both in equal amounts, but will probably do the same approach and hold higher position in cardano.

What trading platform do you use to purchase? Kraken, Binance?

"1"

I’m not in the US so I use different exchanges.

The next 8 weeks are a moment of truth for ETH.

Don’t fret if BTC is rejected at 55k and pulls back.

ETH to 2.4K - pullback to 2.1k - rally to 3k in the next 4 weeks.

I hold both in a small amount.

I have 4x more Cardano than I do Polkodot.

I can’t talk about the tech but the market structure is important as XRP messed up and held a lot of alt coins back.

CARDANO recently made the push up to 3rd spot overtaking XRP which no other coin has done. What we ‘might’ see is a rapid acceleration of Cardano in market cap to bring it closer to ETH. Alt at is assuming CARDANO holds 3rd spot in the short term.

You guys are on a whole different level. I've never heard of either of these and only heard of the rest, except BTC, from this thread.

Bitcoin is eating gold



Yep, and from a much lower market cap base. So for example a 1% movement of Gold into BTC would affect Gold price by 1% but boost BTCs by (for example 30%), depending on how you actually assess the true market cap of Gold.

If we ever got to a point in the world where we had no AC/DC, not having access to bitcoin would be the least of our worries...

Won't happen though, so the scenario is ridiculous from the outset.

So Mr Anabolic? HOW DID YOU CELEBRATE THE BLAST THROUGH THE 50k MARK?

Eat a few extra cans of tuna?  Do a few extra curls with kilos of silver ingots?

Never forget - "Blips to 100K, then to million..."

Indeed I have invested in a range of energy companies. Both traditional, oil & gas, but also clean such as hydro and solar...

On a related note, just as Mr Anabolic learned his lesson mocking me with Bitcoin, you yourself learned your lesson mocking me when in January 2020 I warned of the coming covid epidemic. One year on, and now you know...

ETH goes above the price of gold.

Gold is around 58K USD a kilo. 1 Eth is around 1.9K USD.

BTC has a shot at this milestone though, with USD 58K per BTC a real possibility.

Gold price is measured by ounce.

Right now gold is about $1782 and ETH is $1900, so it is above the gold price.

Gold can be measured by ounces, that is true. But when you get to my level, you measure it in kilos :)

I have numerous 1 oz gold coins, but all my bars are in kilos. Both are cool in the own ways. Both are damn heavy, especially the bars!

Yeah the price started moving up as soon as this was plastered all.over youtube, etc...just like with BTC and f2pool . As soon as that came out the price of BTC went up.  Coincidence?

The fact is that price of gold is valued per ounce.

Someone could say they use tonnes to measure the mountains of gold in their vaults, but that is irrelevant to how gold is priced.

Many people do use kilos as a measure, but yes in some countries and for smaller amounts yeah Oz for sure. In the UK and others parts of Europe they increasingly use a "metric system". Grams, kilos, etc.

See example here:
