kus my 2 kobo experience of crypto trading...forget coinbase,crypto.com & metamask...
You are covered with Trustwallet, binance, kucoin, hotbit & OKEx.
Thanks.
Now i downloaded Okex 1hr ago, got verified and purchased $100 USDT over 30minutes ago, but no show. No email or anything to even acknowledge that they've received the fund and processing my transaction. Should i be worried?

MrCodeSolo:
y no use metamask since? For every failed transaction naa Ur Ethereum go dey burn like forest on wildfire huh Or better still u for just send some usdt to OKEx exchange and buy some Kishu Inu there thus; avoiding ETH outrageous network fees. Coinbase ppl self dia own done too much abba! Information naa power!
Thanks I'm a stark illiterate when it comes to crypto but most people here assume everyone has basic knowledge.

I already downloaded Trust wallet, binance, hotbit, coinbase, crypto etc so i go add metamask and okex exchange now and research on how to send usdt. Luckily for me my money is still intact and has even increased by $1 lol

hahahahahahaha... who misled you to begin with eth network? imagine paying 235usd for 54usd transaction? That is why you should do stuff on chains with cheaper fees eg bsc, tron and so on
Thanks for the response. I'm a stark illiterate when it comes to crypto and honestly most of the comments here don't actually help newbies like me as the response are usually dropped on the assumption that people already understand basic terms lol. I don download almost all the apps mentioned here yet can't still figure out how to get tokens. I researched online and was directed by a video on YouTube to follow that step, I guess the guy didn't know there are cheaper ways.

Good evening house.

I just wanted to buy Kishu Inu (first time token buyer) but don't know how I am getting it all wrong after watching several videos. Here is what I did:

1. Got coinbase wallet
2. Bought Ethereum on coinbase and transferred it to coinbase wallet
3. Then try to swap it through Uniswap but now having challenges. It keeps on reshreshing and saying confirm transaction and can't see anywhere to confirm anything. After trying for multiple times for almost 30minutes I got the following message

Note: I had $120 worth of Ethereum and initially was using the whole money before i reduced it to $60 and still experiencing the same. Finally, the screenshot below appeared.

Does it mean that I have to pay over $300 gas fees for the $60 transaction? Just wanted to be sure I'm doing the right thing

Thanks to everyone
PhonesWhatsapp, Facebook And Instagram Are Down Globally! by idolda(op): 5:25pm On Oct 04, 2021
Update

WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook have all gone down in a major outage.

The three apps – which are all owned by Facebook, and run on shared infrastructure – all completely stopped working shortly before 5pm. Other products that are part of the same family of apps, such as Facebook Workplace, also stopped working.

Visitors to the Facebook website simply saw an error page or a message that their browser could not connect. The WhatsApp and Instagram apps continued to work, but did not show new content, including any messages sent or received during the problems.

Facebook’s outages happen relatively rarely but tend to be vast in their impact, not least because they affect three of the world’s biggest apps

The company is often cryptic about the causes of any issues, and does not tend to explain them even after they are fixed. In 2019, for instance, it suffered its biggest outage in years – and said only that it had “triggered an issue” during “routine maintenance operations”.

In a leaked transcript published in The Verge in 2019, chief executive Mark Zuckerberg note that such outages are a “big deal”. Any problems can often lead people to start using competitors instead, and noted that it can take “months” to win back trust and get people back on Facebook’s platforms – if they come back at all.

SportsRonaldo Overtakes Messi As Highest Paid Footballer by idolda(op): 4:15pm On Sep 22, 2021
Cristiano Ronaldo has emerged as the highest-paid footballer in the world on Forbes list of highest-paid footballers 2021, with Egyptian attacker Mo Salah emerging fifth.

Ronaldo knock outed Lionel Messi from the number one spot after the 34-year-old left Barcelona to join Paris Saint-Germain.

To get the official pay of the footballer, Forbes said, “To compile our list, we spoke with clubs, players’ agents, commercial sponsors, and worldwide soccer experts. All figures are converted to U.S. dollars using the current exchange rate and include salaries (pretax) for the 2021-22 season, bonuses, and endorsements. Transfer fees are excluded.”

Ronaldo will earn $125 million before taxes in the 2021-22 season, with $70 million coming from salary and bonus for his return to Manchester United.

The rest comes from personal endorsements and partnerships with brands including Nike, Herbalife, Clear and his ever-expanding CR7-branded portfolio that includes perfume, underwear, eyewear, hotels, gyms, and more. Only three other active athletes make more commercially: Roger Federer ($90 million), LeBron James ($65 million) and Tiger Woods ($60 million).

Lionel Messi will be paid $75 million this season, helping put him at No. 2 on the list with $110 million.

This is as he’ll pad his PSG paycheck with an estimated $35 million in endorsements from the likes of Adidas, Pepsi, watchmaker Jacobs & Co. and Budweiser, which he just picked up last year under a three-year deal

“In total, the ten highest-paid soccer players are expected to collect pretax earnings of $585 million this season, up from last year’s $570 million. Salary and bonus make up the bulk of the total—$415 million—and are up a modest 2.6% from last year as most clubs continue to be cautious in the face of uncertainty around emerging Covid-19 strains,” Forbes added.

PSG now claims three of the world’s five highest-paid players, including the 29-year-old Neymar, who lands at No. 3 once again with $95 million, and the 22-year-old Kylian Mbappe, who is No. 4 with $43 million.

Liverpool’s Mohamed Salah, 29, rounds out the top five with $41 million.

This year, the 37-year-old Andres Iniesta returns as the only player from a non-European team, landing at No. 7 with $35 million after signing a two-year contract extension with Vissel Kobe in Japan, his club since he left Barcelona in 2018.

FORBES TOP TEN HIGHEST EARNERS IN FOOTBALL 2021-22


1. Cristiano Ronaldo – £91.5m ($125m)
2. Lionel Messi – £80.5m ($110m)
3. Neymar – £69.5m ($95m)
4. Kylian Mbappe – £31.5m ($43m)
5. Mohamed Salah – £30m ($41m)
6. Robert Lewandowski – £26m ($35m)
7. Andres Iniesta – £26m ($35m)
8. Paul Pogba – £25m ($34m)
9. Gareth Bale – £23.5m ($32m)
10. Eden Hazard – £21($29m)

Hmm... I used to wonder why people will buy on the basic version of most exchanges and pay 1.5- 3% when the rate on the pro version is less than 0.5...

I cant remember trading crypt0 at more then 0.5 fees... Right now, I hardly use any exchange that goes above 0.25...

Look at it this way, if you learn to use it, then you've learnt it for life... Also, the interface on most pro exchanges are similar hence you'd be able to use any
Thanks so much for the mention of Coinbase pro, never knew anything like that exist until you mention it earlier and I checked it out. The rate is great 0.5% and it has more coin than the basic version. It is also simple and user friendly to beginners like me. Got Algo from it now. I am still playing my way around Kucoin and getting to understand their interface better.
InvestmentRe: Crypto Currency Investors Thread by idolda: 9:22am On Sep 12, 2021
jedisco:
Have you bothered to confirm what the transaction fees are for purchasing crypt0 on coinbase (not coinbase pro) moreso with a card
Sure. It is open and transparent process, they charge 1.5% per purchase which to me is not an issue (Kucoin charged me 1.9% when i deposited the fund through the purchase of USDT). The simplicity is superb and a layman can successfully navigate the system without any hassle. I didn't even watch a single video or ask a single question when I downloaded the app, opened an account and made my first purchase. Only that they don't have many coin like others.
InvestmentRe: Crypto Currency Investors Thread by idolda: 11:31pm On Sep 11, 2021
Kucoin is the most complicated crypto market on earth lol. I have been battling with purchasing from the app since morning with no luck. I have watched several videos on YouTube with little success unfortunately I already moved money into the app. I don't know why they can't make their platform simple like coinbase. For coinbase you just login and purchase crypto with your card directly without converting to USDT, transferring the fund from main account to trading account (chai the thing really wasted my time before i can figure this out) i was watching as SDN price dey fly but can't still buy due to the lack of simplicity of the app.

I have made so many losses investing, my only protection is that my capital is too small to have much impact, if you check the picture of my portfolio, I posted recently you would see I am -70% on a particular stock.
One thing I have learnt so far is to never buy an IPO unless am insider trader. And also "buy the rumor sale the news".
Accept my condolence. It part of the game...

Down -50% on $virgin galatic
Down -60% on $Dlpn during the nft fad.
Personally i buy IPOs but not the first few trading days. I just observe and allow them to fall below their listing price before getting in. I did it with Roblox, Coinbase and Robinhood and it worked for me (Robinhood was a massive gain). I tried same with Didi but due to Chinese govt wàhálà I'm currently down by just 15% (although i averaged down). One of the strategies I also use is to get in gradually, I don't invest all at once, i get the stocks at different prices so this helps alot despite having it own disadvantages but I learnt my lesson the hard way when I started trading in February/March (bought without adequate knowledge and due to some recommendations here and I am still a bagholders to those shares as some are even down by as much as 37%).

Summarily, for IPOs wait for few days after listing and if it drops below the listing price start getting in. In most cases it will test the listing price and you start making profit

The stock lost 27.59% in just one trading day! Never follow the hype, buy a fundamentally sound stock at a discount entry price and sleep well at night cheesy

I recently added $BABA, $TCEHY, $PDD and $JD to my portfolio at just a few cents above their 52-week low. Yes, they're Chinese stocks, and I'm aware of what I've gone into. I'm not even going to look at the price charts until 5 to 10 years from now!
Lol. Just like you said Didi is down by almost 30% but I'm down by just 14% I have even be waiting endlessly for it to drop to below $9 so I can average down. Didi is the Uber of Asia (Uber even sold their Chinese business to them) and they are just starting to be profitable (The company became profitable only this year despite Covid-19 now imagine after Covid-19) . When all this is over, it will test the IPO price and by then i would have gained at least 10%. Imagine if it gains anything above it IPO price. I'm not buying it because of quick bucks(but if it skyrocket i go take quick bucks lol)

I knew Robinhood would be a goldmine and prepared for it only to use the money to get Didi Global (I know they are in trouble and I bought them with the anticipation things will settle later maybe in 6months time). I never expected HOOD to become a stonk so soon.
