Hi Everyone,

I hope you're having a great week! I wanted to share a blog post that I thought would be helpful for people here learning about trading bots for the first time.

2  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / What is proof of work? on: January 14, 2021, 01:53:32 AM
Hi Everyone,

Many newcomers in the space will probably be asking about Proof of Work and how Bitcoin secures the network. I wanted to put together an article to explain these concepts.

Proof of Work Explained

Let me know if I missed anything! Can't wait to hear what you guys think.
3  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / Bitcoin VS Gold - What is better for long term investors? on: January 14, 2021, 01:27:56 AM
Hi Everyone!

I think it's time we had a serious discussion on whether or not Bitcoin is a better store of value than Gold. This topic has caused a lot of controversy over the last few years, so I would love to hear your thoughts.

Which asset do you think is a better store of value?

I wrote up some of my thoughts on whether Bitcoin or Gold is a better store of value.

However, I'm certainly open to changing my mind!

Looking forward to the conversation.
4  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Service Discussion (Altcoins) / Uniswap vs Sushiswap - Which is better? on: January 08, 2021, 10:03:21 PM
You never would have guessed that a unicorn and a cartoon roll of sushi would have so much in common. However, here we are with both Uniswap and Sushiswap dominating the DeFi market.

To highlight major differences between these platforms, I just published an article here.

Uniswap vs Sushiswap - The best swap exchanges

What do you guys think? For those people who have tried these different apps, which one was better for you?

Looking forward to the discussion!
5  Bitcoin / Bitcoin Discussion / 7 Predictions for the "year of Bitcoin" (2021) on: January 07, 2021, 06:02:48 PM
Hi Everyone!

This year is certainly going to be a volatile one, so watch out for these events playing out.

6  Economy / Trading Discussion / Re: This strategy beat HODL by +67% on: December 17, 2020, 01:44:10 AM
Not sure how the comparison / calculation is clearly done (offsetting holding and trading fees from performance results).

Shrimpy discuss results over a 1 year period (dec 2019 - dec 2020):



However, during the same period, holding:

- BTC: +195% (19-6.5)/6.5
- ETH: +500% (600-100)/100
- XRP: +205% (0.67 - 0.22)/0.22
- LTC: +200% (80-40)/40

Conclusion: Seems more profitable holding any of them without rebalancing.


Thank you for sharing! The first row that is included in this image is the "hold" strategy. That means if you held the same portfolio, it would be worth less money. Although individual assets might have performed better, it's unrealistic to always pick the 1 very best asset and hold. For that reason, most people have a portfolio of assets. This study shows that historically, holding a portfolio of assets has performed worse than rebalancing a portfolio.

Let me know if you have any questions!
7  Economy / Trading Discussion / This strategy beat HODL by +67% on: December 15, 2020, 01:11:35 AM
Hi Everyone!

I've been running a study with over 33,000 backtests to identify the best rebalancing strategy. I wanted to share the results with everyone here to get some feedback.

Here are the backtest results.

Has anyone here tried these strategies before? I would love to hear how they performed for you!

Looking forward to chatting with everyone.
8  Economy / Exchanges / What crypto credit card do you use? on: December 12, 2020, 12:53:01 AM

I wanted to start a thread on the popular crypto credit cards and which ones you use.

I started off by writing this blog post here. So I would encourage everyone to read it and then let me know any thoughts.

Looking forward to discussing!

10  Bitcoin / Legal / Will the US ban self-hosted wallets? on: December 02, 2020, 10:15:14 PM
Hi Everyone!

A few days ago, Brian Armstrong published some tweets that made some investors nervous because it sounded like the US might be trying to force people away from self-hosted wallets.

To address some of these concerns, I published an article.

Will the US Ban Self-Hosted Crypto Wallets?

However, I would love to hear what everyone here thinks! Do you think the US will try to ban self-hosted wallets, or at least try to make them difficult to use so people stop using them?

19  Economy / Trading Discussion / What is Market Spread? How Spread Impacts Your Crypto Trading on: November 14, 2020, 01:37:17 AM
Hi Everyone,

I wanted to have a discussion regarding market spread. I think this is a topic that is often overlooked by new traders in the market. Since new traders don't understand the impact of market spread, they may attempt strategies that involve too much trading.

I wrote up a brief article on the topic here:

What is market spread?

I would love to hear how you guys approach market spread and ensure you are factoring this into your trading strategy.
