https://decrypt.co/43318/failure-to-launch-devs-need-another-trial-run-for-ethereum-2-0"Failure to Launch: Devs Need Another Trial Run for Ethereum 2.0 The Spadina testnet, meant to focus on genesis block creation, suffered from low participation, partly due to technical issues. The Spadina testnet focuses on genesis for Ethereum 2.0. A lack of user participation combined with technical issues and user confusion meant the testnet didn't start as hoped. Developers will run another trial, Zinken, next week." Now 3 test nets(Topaz,Medalla,Spadina ) will have 1 more (Zinken)  If everything goes right this time, then will be the last testnet version before the launch of the mainnet, right? Seeing that they are meeting participation issues, do you think we are still on track for the mainnet release? |

I agree with you, there are loads of scam DeFi projects that are currently taking advantage of the DeFi hype, and one of the ways for them to promote their scam is a reward campaign. It's better to be careful while choosing a project because if we don't then, not only we won't get paid but, we might have also led some investors towards a scam.

It actually can be tough sometimes to determine whether an airdrop is fake or not. I usually look through there website, LinkedIn, and whitepaper(if available) to determine whether the project is legit. I don't participate in KYC unless I 100% believe in the project.

There is an eip that will reduce a 4gb dag to 2.5gb making all 4gb and 3gb cards to work again, might help with the 51% attack as it will cost more to do a 51% attack but as the attack costs more the reward of doing it is also greater. So not sure if it really will help it.
Agree, but it might also increase hashrate high enough so that doing a 51% would be difficult. By the way, do you have the proposal number for the said EIP? I would like to read more about it. The good thing about it, is this " it's a good temporary 51% attack solution as it modifies ethash enough to invalidate hashrate available on nicehash et al.". Thanks for the EIP link. Let's see what happens next for ETC but for now, I am out of ETC both trading-wise and mining can't risk another attack because it will definitely hammer the price. |

Price-wise: Just my opinion but, as long as the previous owner has his coins which he got when he left the company, XRP will continue to crash after every pump. He has a lot of coins, and because of that, the community is a bit scared that he can dump his coin at any moment.

Hey,
I have plan to establish my own crypto, how much it costs, and capitalize on it on markets? (Coinmarketcap)
As far as I know, to get listed on coinmarketcap, your coin must have to be traded on more than one exchange, and they must have a trading volume of $50k. Coingecko has a bit lower requirement I think. Listing is free on both CMC and CG. |

If you are talking about 2017 Pinkcoin then I would suggest you to be careful with it because I once invested there and lost a lot of money on that investment. I think acit's better for you to get into some new coins like DOT or AVAX(bit expensive rn)
DOT is a Defi project and now starts to drop from the huge increase,anyway if OP can risk in scam project then why not try to go with the flow of Defi projects. Yes, why not but he would have to be extremely careful while picking projects because there are 100s of scam projects that are in the crypto space. It would be better for him/her to chose a project which has a good market cap IMO. |

With falls of DeFi tokens in their price, the greed and FOMO on DeFi projects are decreasing. Less people want to invest in new DeFi projects and they don't try to spend capital to invest and don't accept too high fees, consequently. Together, the fee of transactions on ETH network has fallen and in last several days, fee is good. Now it is standing at 47 Gwei (for Average speed). If nothing suddenly changes with DeFi trend I believe fee can keep falling back to 21 Gwei range. https://ethgasstation.info/calculatorTxV.phpAgree, but with the state of chain we are in(scalability wise), we are just one good airdrop or hyped ICO away from getting a huge surge on gas fees. Unless the ETH team does something about it, my only hope is ETH 2.0 which is still really far away. |

Yes currently its 20% more profitable. So if you got a few GPUs it doesn't make a difference but if you got a large farm of 100 GPUs its much more profitable to mine. However if you run into bad luck and end up mining blocks which get re-orged then you wasted all that time.
Currently you should just mine directly to your own wallet. You can make one in cold storage and just send all your mined ETC there and maybe in the future when the devs release some fix for these attacks and the confirmations are lowered on exchanges and deposits are re-enabled then send it to an exchange to sell.
ETC blocks getting re-orged as become quite normal these days lol. I would rather earn fewer $ with ethereum then risk it getting lost with ETC. ETC is not having a good year so far 3-5 51% attack in a year is a lot IMO. |

I have seen something similar happened a lot of time. Sadly nothing can be done about it because we can't dictate the rules and, sometimes it's not even CM's fault IMO the fault usually are of project owners. When something like this happens to me I usually walk out of the project's campaign.

I have never mined a CPU mineable coin before can someone give me any insight on would it be harmful if I mine using my laptop's CPU now I know it won't yield me much of a reward but would my laptop be safe?

Gas fees are down a lot from its peak of 800 so what do guys think are the chances of gas fees going below 20 before the launch of ETH 2.0?
Gas fee ate up lots of my ETH for the past few months though I made some of it back my mining ETH.

I sent ER20 token this morning. I thought $2,5 of transaction fees are enough but it seems it wasn't. The transaction has been pending since five hours now. Is there any way to speed up the confirmation for example by sending further tx fee (I sometimes use this in Bitcoin when a transaction is stuck)?
If you are using metamask there's an easy way to fix that just go-to activity and click speed up or cancel the transaction but, if you sent it using a normal wallet then you need to resend the transaction with the same nonce with but with a higher gas fee. I used my Ledger Nano wallet. In the meanwhile (after almost seven hours) the transaction was rejected and marked as failed. So I can spend my tokens again, but if this happens again in the future, is there also a method to speed up transactions which were sent with Ledger Nano wallet? Check the article link below it should help you in the future if you ever get stuck with a pending transaction you could either cancel it or speed it up. https://kb.myetherwallet.com/en/transactions/checking-or-replacing-a-tx-after-sending/ |

We should always diversify our investments keeping that in mind I would say that you should invest 60% on gold and the remaining money in bitcoin. I allocated less % to bitcoin because the bitcoin market is highly volatile.

For me, $UNI was the biggest airdrop because to get UNI we didn't have to anything like holding certain coins or tokens they just straight forward gave us UNI tokens if we had ever swapped on their exchange.
