Infrastructure Bill Day (H.R.3684 - INVEST in America Act) and we are still waiting !
The bill has passed the House of Representatives and is currently being considered by the Senate. Amendments to the bill have been proposed and that is the hold up. Debate and more debate which is not what impatient Americans care for, but is part of our democratic process.
A number of clotures (a vote called for everyone to shut the fuck up about a certain debate topic) have taken place.
Oh well. It is Sunday so won't much be going on today. Let's see what Monday brings.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
We may be waiting into September. The Senate is scheduled to recess for a month (usual August recess) I believe (but am not 100%) offically starting today.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
This will get done before they go on recess.
It is all part of the bigger program Biden has.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
In the little bit of supplemental research I did for my article this morning, it's my understanding that the bipartisan support for this 'crap' is tenuous at best. I say let them keep arguing over the amendments and go into recess without passage. Maybe clearer heads will prevail come September. (Wait, did I just use clearer heads with respect to Washington - damn, what was I thinking)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Just shows how fucked up the system is. A bill, and a relatively good one, on infrastructure is so loaded with amendments that have nothing to do with it.
Agendas then come into play as we see with the ones seeking to take down cryptocurrency.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yea I don't really expect much to be done. Remember all those stimulus packages? It took forever and they were throwing messages to the press instead of talking.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
This is the story in crypto to be following this week.
Who of the regulars in this chat are American?
I'd love to keep hearing your opinions on what's going on and what an ideal end-result would be.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I am American as is @taskmaster, @kevinnag, and I believe, @evernoticethat. Not sure about everyone else. They will have to sound off as to whether they belong to this great (?) Nation of ours.
America, like every other Nation, is subject to the whims of its leadership. We ain't the best or the worst of Nations. Just a bunch of folks that happen to have the North American continent as our habitat.

Approximately 2.3 #ETH is being burned every minute through the new transaction fee mechanism introduced in Ethereum's London update. Will the fee burning lead to ETH having a deflationary supply?
CC: @jfang003. It's a great article trying to answer your question but we can't ignore the fact that ETH has an infinite supply.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
When it comes to Ethereum, I'm not an ideal person to give an opinion as I know very little about its ecosystem, but from what I've seen, this will make ETH value even more in the future. Let's see how this develops.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Same here, brother
I have started to learn more about it after the fork, but I still don't know a lot about it
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
ETH is also going in one direction. Just like Bitcoin. It's going to be a huge gateway to 3.0
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Without a doubt, I think the same way too. No wonder this is the second most valued currency on the market.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's why I am investing in Ethereum using DCA.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
What would this DCA be? Sorry for the layman's question, but maybe the acronym didn't let me understand because of my language.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
error*
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It's crazy how much is being burned. I wasn't expecting it to be that much to be honest I figured a few thousand worth a day but DANG! We aren't even in peak times yet where fees where $50 If we get to that point again for sure negative supply I would think which could prime it for one of the largest short term rallies.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's right, it's too crazy. Do we know if ETH burning going to continue like this? Would love to see the rally even for short term. 😬
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Thanks for the article. Yea but I think a deflationary currency doesn't make it good for the economy.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's right. Ethereum anyway gets its value from the utility it provides. Its algorithm takes care of the supply so we are good.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
No I agree. It could be problematic down the road. We could see liquidity issues especially since it is the core coin for the blockchain.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Will it mean less users using it and it will become similar to the BTC network?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Been really enjoying my time over on Noisecash, I have earned quite A bit of BTC cash during my first 3-4 weeks using noise cash and the engagement over there is quite good, I have very high hopes for project blank when it arrives.
It is going to be epic
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's cool mate. Keep at it and buy Hive or Leo from earned BCH. ;)
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's terrible because I really would like to use my BCH from noise'cash to buy hive or Leo but BCH is also a really interesting coin and has for the moment more use cases !
What use cases do you see B-Cash having?
It's a centralised version of Bitcoin with the goal of trying to make a select group rich.
Roger Ver is not a friend of the decentralisation movement.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
You can use it in real stores and the fees aren't making it stupid to buy little objects for exemple
I never really got around to trying Noisecash but I know that many LeoFinance members do.
But yes, I also believe Project Blank is going to be epic.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
#ProjectBlank will be huge, you are correct. Will have a much bigger following immediately since there are going to be a lot more benefits such as payments versus tipping.
Plus it is tied to Leofinance and Cubfinance by being under the same umbrella.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Interestingly the article is already a little "overdue" but what caught my attention was the fact that BTC at $43k already
reached its highest price since May. At that exact moment BTC is already at $44,442.69. We can say that $45k is right there.
Let's enjoy my friends while we can accumulate more HIVE, CUB, LEO and other second tier tokens. We will see another running of the Bulls very soon.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Getting ready for the bull run! Let's keep stacking those tokens
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It will lift the price of most tokens. If we see the Bull take off, it will be wild this time.

Latest LBI earnings are out. I also got my dividends in Hive Engine.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta

Happy to see that LBI is finally paying dividends.
The promise of dividends was one of the reasons I invested at the beginning and for me, it's been a long time coming.
With how much LEO they own, the account literally prints money just via curation.
They can certainly afford to pay dividends and still grow the overall value of the fund.

The reality is that the regulators from around the world are so far behind what is taking place. They are still looking at the blockchain structure and on regulating that.
Here we are already onto DeFi, NFTs, DAOs, and Social Tokens.
How long will it take for them to catch up?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It will be a while till everything catches up. At least from my point of view, they will always lag behind because they touch the places with the most money first.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Many people will lag behind unless they have an open mind and will to learn something uber-cool such as crypto.

Stuff sits in committee for a long time. Then a certain committee sends it to another committee. Not a perfect system and very slow, but we could do worse.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's government. Slow AF and when they do pass things they are so dumb and wasteful. I often wonder how anything ever gets done around here anymore but then drive down the road and realize it all looks the same for the last 3 years.
Governments are old, slow and wasteful and are CLEARLY moving in the wrong direction. Since when was out government suppose to control us the people, we the people have the power and it's what this great nation was founded on. I think these people in the house need a serious reality check on that and hopefully this is the wave we do it.
I love my country I seriously do, It's why I spread awareness and information as that is the core of what makes us strong.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The Nation is good. It's The State which is "problematic" to say the least. There is a distinction between the two concepts.

Too long.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The open minded will catch up eventually, might take some time, but one thing is for sure, everyone can't catch up, some will definitely be left behind.
I think that's just the reality.
Some don't ever learn new things but stick to the old which isn't or might not be the best option.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
If crypto keeps innovating, like I believe it will, regulators will never catch up. Crypto will always be many steps ahead of them.

Want to know some contract numbers and what messi won during his time at Barcelona, the highest paid player even above Cristiano Ronaldo despite both competing for the best in the world of all times, well here are some impressive numbers:
Big record aWall Street closed the week with a new record following the news and data of the big job growth.
Where this rise can be clearly seen was in the S&P 500 and Dow Jones indices reaching highs that hadn't been seen in a long time.
But there were other sectors of activity that reached great rises such as retail, industry and energy. Now we will have to wait to see if it really goes up a sustained rise or not, but with the vaccination plan it seems that this economic recovery is likely it must have come sustainably and to stay.
Those Messi numbers are insane.
Modern football is broken...
I get that it's hard leaving a club you've been at since you were a child, but it was still pretty cringe watching Messi cry while knowing he's going to be earning 300,000+ Pounds per WEEK in Paris.

China's crypto ban opened up a new avenue for electric vehicles adoption in the country.
Was it a strategic move or a coincidence?

Coincidence. I think they just wanted the CBDCs promoted more in their own economy.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Sometimes investors or organizations want to move a lot of cryptocurrency, and they would prefer to do it in a way that doesn’t have a big impact on the market.
Paradigm has a new idea – and its core trick is laziness. Make bots(AMM) trade big chunks of crypto for you, very slowly.

That's a pretty cool idea I guess
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's a very interesting idea. I really believe that automated market makers (AMMs) are going to do a lot of the great things to the world of DeFi

Not a fan of this. BH's version is just a centralised team offering VERY cheapo copywriting services.
At 1c USD per word, businesses will get what they pay for...
When it comes to building a decentralised alternative to Fiverr on Hive, check out what @thelogicaldude is building with Hive List and Hive Hustlers.
A services market was mentioned in the last Hive Hustlers update that I'd love to hear more about.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Hivelist already has a services section that people can promote their services offered and such. All you have to do is post using the ‘services’ tag. The only downside is that you can’t set up the payment rails from the blockchain post so that is why I am building the marketplace a different way.
Awesome man.
As a copywriter who is sick of being at the mercy of centralised platforms, I'm very keen for this.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I saw it yesterday. It's an app where you can avail of writing services provided by the Broadhive Team of selected writers. I thought it was like Fiverr where anyone can post gigs.

Hello friends!
A few days ago I was thinking about launching a new contest a bit like Coyote League only this one will be I believe it will be more interactive.
We will have a format a little like a quiz and the scores will be in league format for the dispute. We will have an interesting monthly award but I'm still analyzing the amount to be attractive to participants.
As you can see in the image, it will be a contest aimed at Splinterlands and as I noticed that many friends here play and started to play, I believe they will like this new contest.
Between the weekly awards we will have golden card delegations and I believe that in a not so distant future and with lots of participations, I can also delegate summoners of at least lv 3 that already becomes competitive.
I'll bring more details soon and as this is a great place for promotion, so I decided to present it first hand to you. I'm still thinking about doing it on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays or maybe from Monday to Friday....
And you, what did you think of the idea? I hope to see you participating in this contest too ;)

Hey Guys, What do you think about Polkadot? It was created by Gavin Wood who was also the co-founder of Ethereum. Sadly, not as famous as Vitalik. 😋
Do you think it will compete well with Polygon, Cardano, Cosmos, Ethereum, or any other sidechain projects?
https://leofinance.io/@rob23/polkadot-has-fallen-off-the-radar
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I know very little about it. I didn't even know it was founded by one of the Ethereum co-founders! I'll have to take a better look at the project.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Besides the fact that it has a kingdom in CubFinance, I don't really follow it.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Polkadot is a good scaling alternative, competitive within the space. They recently began auctions for parachain slots, but there has not been much publicity out there on the project as of late.
Polkadot's scaling is somewhat complicated and cumbersome. Much simpler solutions using simple bridges are available (Polygon/THORChain).
At one time I was very big on Polkadot but that has since waned. I mean it is still a great project with tons of potential, but the simpler scaling solutions have interested me more.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
For more on this, check out Kevin's THORChain vs Polkadot comparison that was done for our THORChain guide.
Good explainer as to why there are better solutions than Polkadot currently on the market and why the project's popularity has started to wane.

We can clearly see a beautiful example of what Splinterlands is doing with the Hive ecosystem and it is clear that its price appreciation has an influence on the game.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Oh yea, I'm pretty sure that gaming is going to be the next big thing on crypto.
I hope this will also bring better games to the ecosystem! We already have a few good ones, but a lot of them are very bad and only make it big because people earn a lot of money
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yes it's true, many are of the click-on-click type... no emotion at all... I hope we can see better games and as time goes by I'm sure it will.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Play 2 Earn games are great for NFT and Crypto adoption. Splinterlands success is definitely inspiring and I hope more of such games get launched on Hive in the future.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I also can't wait to see more new games have the same success as Splinterlands.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Do you see any other games going down the same path?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Here at Hive? Well, at the moment just Exode I'm hoping it could be one of the most important in the ecosystem, but it's still in Alpha so it's going to take a while to grow as it should.
Outside of Hive there are several and some that are already consolidated. I'm researching a lot about Axie Infinity and the game has recently had some updates. I did a little research on a Mist, but nothing much... Well, it's good to keep an eye on the market, because eventually something really cool to play and win money at the same time can come up.

Still now word out of Washington.
We wait while the back and forth takes place.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Sorry to bother you Task but could you please explain the anticipated impact of the proposed infrastructure bill. Is it good or bad in general?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Basically there are a couple of amendments that are perhaps going to be added to the bill.
What people fear is that they will make node operators be treated the same as exchanges i.e. Pos and miners.
This would mean they would have to get KYC and track who money is being sent to and from under the AML.
Plus there are a host of tax requirements also being attached.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
I have read a couple of posts on Facebook about some amendments related to crypto but I thought they were rumors. Also, this is an 'infrastructure' bill so the name is a bit misleading.
I hope they reconsider those amendments and make changes that would help the space to grow. Don't add more burden, please.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
When it comes to Washington, DC, nothing is as it seems. Whatever a bill is named before it gets signed into law, the bill is anything except what the name implies.
If the people there insist on KYC for everything we do, we should insist on KYG on everything they do-- Know Your Government.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Here are a few good opinion pieces on the bill that I think are worth sharing:
The Plot Against Crypto
The US Senate Goes to War Over Crypto Taxation
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Well here is what Old man Eddie Monster look-alike Senator Ted Cruz (Republican-Texas) thinks about the bill.
Hell, let's let the bridges fall down and sink holes continue around the USA. That will be a big help for people trying to get to work (sarcasm all mine).
Then again; Senator Cruz did say roads and bridges only made up about 1/86th of the bill's total cost.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
He gets points for quoting Admiral Ackbar, though.

Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
The back and forth is to be expected when it comes to politicians.

Thus one can force something through along party lines.

You might find this bill, Quantum Network Infrastructure Act of 2021, introduced in the Congress this past March of interest. It is in committee right now.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That is very cool. I like that we are seeing so much attention being paid to it. There is a quantum race taking place among governments as well as private entities.
A grand time to be sure.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
This may go by the wayside if the Infrastructure bill is passed (depending on what form its adopted).
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Ah that sucks. Does this affect the mining companies?
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It could if the bill is adopted in its original form. The original definition of broker in it is so broad and vague it could encompass virtually any crypto actor.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
It depends upon which amendment that ends up in there.
It does have a situation where mining would have to do KYC to whatever transactions are taking place.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
A really nice article I found on How to get into crypto full time. I have been thinking about this a lot lately because I already spend way too much time researching various different projects.
Apart from Hive & directly trading/investing into coins, is there any other cool way you make money out of crypto?
P.S: I would suggest not to quit your job until you are really sure about it and only if you can afford the risks.

I don't make a lot of money from any of those things yet, but that is my plan.

If Terrive works out, photo sharing like IG. I posted to a couple of photography-oriented communities about it to increase awareness of the dApp. We'll see what happens later this year after bugs are fixed.

Oh, that's nice indeed!
I heard about Terrive, but I didn't know it was looking to be an IG-style dapp!
I hope it does work out then because, even though it's really not my cup of tea, IG is huge nowadays and having something similar on the blockchain could really help with adoption

I uploaded a test image, and it worked fine. Comments and replies worked, too, although it was as obvious to me as I had expected. When I find more images to upload there I'll test Terrive some more.
I don't have an IG account, so I can't make any comparisons bettween it and Terrive. I'm guessing IG is still the leader by far, but it Terrive gets the basics right then it can add the bells and whistles later.
Just a reminder: it's a prototype.

Yea, I don't know much about how is the UX on IG, but they look very similar.
I didn't know it was a prototype so thanks for the heads up

No problem. That's why it's not on dApp Radar or State of the dApps. It's still a work in progress, but the developer ("@"appukuttan66) is looking for people to use Terrive and find bugs, quirks, UX suggestions, or awkward processses he can work on or improve. I've been corresponding with him both at Terrive and at D.Buzz.

Will we have a surprise with this coin, shiba. Can you go where?
Meme coins like SHIB have the potential to pump hard...
But as we've been talking about in our latest guide to Shiba Inu coin, it has a very scammy stench surrounding the project.
Just don't be the one left holding a bag at the end...

Are you guys having any trouble publishing posts on LeoFinance? I'm not trying to get attention on my post, but I just uploaded one on this account about thirty minutes ago. It shows up on Hive and I can see it if I navigate to the post URL, but it does not show up on my LeoFinance profile or on "new posts" section of the LeoFinance mainpage. I uploaded it on LF.
In short, no one on LeoFinance can see my new post.
Any ideas? I had it set to "auto reblog" as normal and I was able to reblog a post by belemo just fine earlier.
It's odd that I can see it in the URL, but it can't seem to propagate on LeoFinance.

Like you said, I can see your post on PeakD, but not leofinance.io.
When I click the 'posted from leo' link at the bottom, it shows the URL.
What the heck?
Head into the Discord and ask the tech support guys there.

Will do, thanks for checking.

I was commenting on a post and the comment wouldn't appear on screen wit the LeoFinance front-end. It showed up when I used Ecency. I'm not sure what was happening.

I'm not talking about a comment, they usually show up when you refersh. I have an entire post missing on LeoFinance.

Guys, I'm really concerned about my missing LeoFinance post from this morning. It was published here on this account and shows up on Hive, but does not appear on my LF blog page.
Do any of the veterans have any idea why my post isn't showing up on LeoFinance? Its never happened before, but when I surf to the exact URL, I can see it. But not on my blog page.
I asked a question about a spammer in yesterday's LeoMarketTalk and nobody responded to that, so I'm wondering if there isn't something wrong on LeoFinance and my content isn't being seen at all.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Go to the exact url, and edit the post in some way and the repost it.
Then it often shows up.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
That's actually something I thought about and did not long after I uploaded it. That, and I even tried to reblog it in case the original reblog didn't take. (I always tick the "auto reblog" radio button).
Just now, I went back in and edited it again by adding a word. Uploaded, no dice. Then reblogged it and again it still doesn't show.
What's strange is that I can see in the LeoFinance notifications, that ctime upvoted it, but I don't know if that was on Hive or LF.
As far as LeoFinance is concerned, the post just doesn't exist.
Thankfully it was only 500 words, so it didn't take too long to write. I'm hoping this is a one-off glitch, because if the next post also doesn't appear on LeoFinance, that will really be a problem for me as there goes up to half my potential audience. Thanks for responding.

As I said all along, cryptocurrency makes strange bedfellows.
It is interesting how this is now falling along party lines and there are people on both sides from each party.
We will see how this unfolds but cryptocurrency is getting a lot of attention.

A great article as to why the United States should not adopt a CBDC.
This is what I have said all along. Be careful, Waller does not speak for The Fed but it shows what the discussion is.
The words that matter are from Powell are what matter. Yet we now there are some bringing up the discussion.

W.T.F.!!!!!
So, just for shits and giggles, I just tried to swap 17 RUNE for Ethereum. I probably was going to cancel the transaction, but was curious to see the fees for gas.
17 RUNE is just over $120.00. To swap on Metamask they wanted $71 and change for the transaction fee. No Fucking Way!
Yup, the London Hard Fork sure fixed a lot fee wise. Time for me to get everything out of Ethereum (well, when I can afford to).

Ridiculous isn't it?
I still have some $5 CryptoKitties that I want to sell, but it will cost me like $80.
Imagine social media on Ethereum.
Lol.
Posted Using LeoFinance Beta
Yup, I can imagine. How about $50 per social post.
It's going to be crazy.

OK, it looks like that unless the Republican's relent and agree to end debate on the amendments to the Infrastructure Bill, no vote can take place due tp procedure until at the earliest 02:30 EDT on Tuesday.
Better they keep debating to insure inclusion of the Wyden/Toomey/Lummis Amendment exempting many crypto actors from tthe definition of a 'broker' for purposes of the Bill.
