I think the issue is that because of the accounting model Cardano has you can't use the same process as you would on Ethereum. That's not a screwup that's deliberate. You can read about the advantages of EUTXO here:https://iohk.io/en/blog/posts/2021/0...on-on-cardano/

Don't do it. Too much risky involved with when/if 2.0 is going to be implemented. I'm not sure how Coinbase words it but on Kraken it states that there is no guarantee of when/if your staked funds will ever be available. Plenty of other safer staking options for ETH.

I am. There are risks, but Coinbase and ETH 2.0 is worth the risk for 5% return imo.

And I'm pretty paranoid about staking. I don't trust BlockFi, crypto.com or any of them for BTC investing.

The main risk is your ETH are locked up.

SEC threatens to sue Coinbase over crypto lending programme

Tue, September 7, 2021, 10:32 PMยท1 min read

HONG KONG, Sept 8 (Reuters) - The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has threatened to sue Coinbase Global Inc if the crypto exchange goes ahead with plans to launch a programme allowing users to earn interest by lending crypto assets, Coinbase said on Wednesday.

The SEC has issued Coinbase with a Wells notice, an official way it tells a company that it intends to sue the company in court, Paul Grewal, the company's chief legal officer said in a blog post. He said Coinbase would delay the launch of its 'Lend' product until at least October as a result.

Programmes that allow owners of cryptocurrencies to lend these in return for interest are becoming more common around the world, but some regulators, particularly in the United States have started to raise concerns, arguing that such products should comply with existing securities laws.

The U.S. state of New Jersey ordered the cryptocurrency platform BlockFi Inchttps://www.reuters.com/legal/transa...ing-2021-07-20in July to stop offering interest-bearing accounts that have raised $14.7 billion from investors.

Grewal said in his blog that the SEC's concerns about Coinbase's 'Lend' were related to the fact that the regulator believed the product involved a security. Grewal said Coinbase felt that this was not the case.

The SEC did not respond to an emailed request for comment outside office hours. (Reporting by Alun John in Hong Kong and Kanishka Singh in Bengaluru; Editing by Ana Nicolaci da Costa)

I mean...Coinbase should just go ahead with it and see what the court says.

Best case scenario the court rules, as it should, that the current laws on the books make it so that the majority of the non-centralized cryptos are not securities and off to the jupiter we go.

Worst case scenario court rules in favor of SEC and Coinbase has to pay a fine that barely makes a dent on their books.

If you don't have enough for a full node then the answer to that probably depends on their reward rates. The lock up is sort of scary if you have some kind of sell price determined in your head. I like Celcius so far. You can stake with no lock up for 5.5% rewards and a very small minimum. If you have 32 ETH to run a full node I like the idea of Lido. You can connect to them through your ledger and they also give you a stETH token in return which represents your ETH staked in case you would like to sell out of your position at a certain price. It's almost a top 50 coin so the volume is there to sell/buy. There are obviously still risks etc, but earning some passive income is always nice while you are also helping the ETH network get closer to 2.0.
What are you on about mate?

Always best (or at least safer) to DCA.

Personally I think we retest somewhere around the 42k area before we push higher.

And Algo cracks 2.

About time. It was primed for breaking out in May, but every time it pumped, it was always met with a market crash. This time, it pumps during the market crash.

So I think its worth it for places like Aus where Gov gonna take 50% of all your earnings. This might be a way to avoid tax for few ppl.

There are different tiers of cards with different rewards based on how much CRO you lock-up (USD $0, $400, $4,000, $40,000 or $400,000). I've got the middle tier card with $4,000 in CRO locked-up for 180 days. Pretty incredible rewards IMO - 10% interest on the locked-up CRO paid in CRO weekly to your account, 3% cashback on purchases using the card paid in CRO instantly after purchase, Spotify/Netflix reimbursement up to around $25/mo paid in CRO instantly after monthly payment, access to airport lounges, and a few other perks. You can also get pretty great rates lending out other coins, particularly stablecoins which will give 12% interest for 3 month terms.

The 10% interest on locked-up CRO is really 17.5% if you count the Netflix/Spotify reimbursement (assuming you subscribed for those regardless). Plus there's always the chance that CRO increases in value too (already up 30% since I got in a month ago).

Rewards get even better if you can spring for the higher tier cards.

I've just ordered my green card too. Don't have to pay any tax on rewards if I sell them straight away.

Not to mention the extra 2% boost it gives on your earning program. Staking usdc for 12% is insane. Basically a pay rise every year

bought fetch at 0.55, honestly didn't expect it to hold this well but damn sure glad i did. the reason I bought fetch ai is because alethea.ai partnered with them or something. I remember alethea.ai tweeting about fetch. Anyway alethea is creating an iNFT (intelligent NFT) and I haven't heard of anyone else doing this.
