Actually, the seller wanted half cash, half BTC. Guess which half was more of a pain for me? The BTC was quick and easy, cost me about $5 in fees since I wanted to send it fast. One test transaction and then the whole amount, done in 1 block confirmation.
The cash... I had to transfer money via ACH (2-3 days) and then call my (no branches) bank to raise my debit cash advance limit. Then I had to drive to a bank and wait in line, then carry an uncomfortably large amount of cash around until I could pay the seller.
If it had been up to me, I would have paid the whole amount in BTC. It also helped that the price has been somewhat stable over the last few days.
The database for my registration email address for Ledger got owned or ledger sold my email address.
I'm 23 and have very few financial obligations (about 17K/year in total expenses). Pretax income is about 105K/year. I live in the Midwest US. I have a very long time horizon for my investments. This is my current asset allocation based on prices today: My stocks are 100% VTSAX (with a VTSAX equivalent in my 401K). Crypto is 100% BTC. With my income, I could continue to invest about $500 / week for the remainder of the year based on my expenses and estimated 2021 tax liability while still maintaining my emergency fund. If you were in my shoes, would you:
If option 2, how much from the taxable brokerage account do you sell? I realize everyone is different and situations vary a lot, but my risk tolerance is very high since I have a good career and minimal expenses. I can withstand the volatility of crypto no problem. I will continue to max out my 401K and Roth IRA in 2022 as well (already maxed out this year). Just wondering if most people in my position would sell some stocks in the taxable brokerage account for crypto. [link] [comments] |
Just wanted to say Hi.
CashFusion is a privacy protocol for Bitcoin Cash where users mix their coins with each other to make their transactions more private.
With CashFusion, your finances are your business, and no one else's. Over 5.5 Million Bitcoin Cash has already been made private using this innovative, non-custodial mixing protocol.
You can "Fuse" all week for a few cents in fees if you want. This post is just a weekly reminder. (And it gives users a specific time to coordinate their fusing if they want. The more people using CashFusion at once, the more effective it is!)
New to CashFusion? No problem, getting set up is pretty easy =)
First, download the Electron Cash desktop wallet. It's got CashFusion built in.
Set up your wallet (and be sure to write down your recovery phrase on a physical piece of paper), then activate CashFusion by clicking the icon in the lower right: https://i.imgur.com/DXEPLtf.png
Once it's activated, your wallet will start "fusing" the Bitcoin Cash it contains. Fusions happen over time as their own transactions, and they only cost you the network transactions fees (so less than a penny, usually).
Each fusion transaction will include some of your coins*, so it will take multiple fusion transactions before all the coins in your wallet will be fused. (In the View menu, toggle the "coins tab" to see all of the coins in your wallet. In the "Label" field, fused coins will show CashFusion info.)
Currently, Electron Cash keeps fusing your coins indefinitely. The plan is to eventually allow you to stop fusing automatically after some number of fusions per coin but, until then, there's no downside to leaving it to fuse continuously besides paying the transaction fees. (Every fusion gives you that much more privacy, while also providing "liquidity" for other fusers.)
Electron Cash does not yet prevent you from spending un-fused coins, nor does it prefer fused coins when spending, so it's probably best to leave it fusing and keep your whole wallet fused, and to pick your coins manually from the Coins tab. If you want that coin-management taken care of for your (and/or you're not comfortable picking from the Coins tab), you can always switch back to CashShuffle for now. (It's in the Optional Features window, accessible from the Tools menu.)
Here's the CashFusion Telegram group where you are welcome to ask questions. (Just remember to be courteous!)
Happy Fusing!! <3
*"Coins" are kind of a confusing concept when it comes to Bitcoin, but you can think of them just like discrete "bills" (or... "coins") in your wallet, but instead of coming in only certain sizes like $1, $5, $10, $20, etc, they can be any amount sent to you in a previous transaction, like 0.618 BCH, 0.000001 BCH, or 123.45679 BCH. (They can also be combined and split up. That happens in most transactions!)
Hello everyone I am new to Reddit but not with Bitcoin cash (holding since-2019), read.cash and noise.cash. But now I want change means I want to serve community while earning decent BCH ofc. I am from India-Delhi and still a high school student. Let me know guys if i can do anything for the community.
The idea that China's worldwide bitcoin mining supremacy was already eroding before the country's recent crackdown is supported by fresh statistics gathered by Cambridge University.
On Thursday, the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance (CCAF) updated its bitcoin mining map data, revealing that
Even if you bought Bitcoin at the very peak of the last bull run around $20k, you are still around 50% profit right now. That's still better than the 3-4% APY traditional investments are getting
If you're entering the space for a quick buck, you're doing it all wrong.
You can purchase #YearsofDoge Dividend Certificates via $BCH / #BitcoinCash network. They are mailed to you securely, and Doge will start to be deposited after activation. The certificate is lifetime so long as you Check-In once a year. Cheers!
Proceeds go to growing the network and miners.

Long story short, Square mistakenly shut down our payment processing ability. We tried for over a month to fix the issue with them but their customer service department was terrible and we were were unable to speak with any actual humans to resolve this issue. (Eventually, our “privilege” to continue business was restored.)
We felt we had to try something else so we turned to Coinbase Commerce and were able to start receiving Bitcoin as payment within just 15 minutes!!! It was super easy too and didn’t require any of the lengthy vetting processes associated with fiat based systems like Square.
Bitcoin is the future and I think few people understand how revolutionary this technology is for e-commerce.
Grayscale, managing over $30 billion in digital assets is set to transfer fund account and administration functions for their flagship Bitcoin Trust to BNY Mellon in October. This is still in line with Grayscale's purpose of converting GBTC into a bitcoin ETF and BNY Mellon is dedicated to providing and servicing the growing digital currency asset class. Grayscale also hopes on getting bitcoin ETF approval from US regulators.
I have around 0.5 BTC and I’m just curious about it. Not trying to hate on Bitcoin.
