Manuel Resort Yesterday we took a day trip to the wonderful Manuel Resort. The resort is located near Dipolog City, in Zamboanga del Norte, and is about a 3.5 hour drive from where we live, out in the corn fields of Zamboanga del Sur. We all had a great time, although we're all extremely tired today, due in no small part to my wife's crazy decision to make a 1 hour detour on the way home to see "the beach". (The "beach" we saw was extremely underwhelming.) Yes, we took pics,…

I Think I Know Why People Hate Uphold Uphold is a CEX that I have seen getting quite a bit of hate here on Noise.cash recently. Yes, as a CEX it automatically sucks, but I think I now know why people dislike it so much. Look at the attached pic, and read under the heading on the right titled "Blockchain integration". Do you notice that you can only withdraw seven types of crypto to your own wallet? WTF is up with that? I was logged onto Uphold today, and I thought I would…
Days Like This Make Me Glad I'm A HODLer I am a HODLer. (I feel like I am in some kinda 12 step recovery program when I say that. "My name is Old Bastard, and I HODL cryptocurrency.") As such, I usually don't give a rat's behind about what the silly crypto market is up to on a day-by-day basis, unless we have one of those crazy days when the prices skyrocket, or more likely, collapse. However, recently I have been watching the progress of my investments on my THORWallet. In…
Frustration Getting Started With Cryptos OTC Trading Platform *** UPDATE *** I got a response from the Atomic Wallet support team. As you would expect, it was a user error. I need to have some Tron available to send TRX-USDT tokens. *** Grrr!!! I am soooo frustrated right now! Since last night I've been trying to fund my Cryptos OTC account, and have hit nothing but roadblocks! What is Cryptos OTC? It appears to be a way to make a little bit of money, over and over again,…
Follow Up To My Problems With Atomic Wallet Sorry to spam everyone, but I want to be clear that the problem I was having sending TRX-USDT was a User Error, NOT, as I implied, a problem with Atomic Wallet. Apparently I need to have some Tron laying about to send/convert the stupid things, which I did not know. Hooray for Atomic Wallet support! I figured this merited a post of its own because so many of the tools we use for crypto have atrocious support. (Yes Coinbase, I'm…
What Crazy Nonsense Have I Been Up To? I haven't been super active on Noise.cash these past few days because I have been busy working on, (fixated on, to be honest!), a few crypto projects that IF they work out, have the potential to make me a whole lot of money. I was gonna wait to write about them until I actually withdrew money from them, but since regarding these crazy projects time is of the essence, I figured I'd go ahead and tell you about them now, before I have any…
Wanna Be A Multi-Millionare? Or at least own artwork worth millions? For some insane reason, (rich people are crazy!), folks have been spending over a million dollars for easily reproduceable jpegs of "art" images. Using the wonderful screen capture technology built into my Apple PC, I have captured several of these million dollar images which you may download/copy, and begin to acquire your own immensely valuable NFT estate. The first image is titled "Forever Rose", and was…
Stupid Body Tricks, Part Three Yes, esteemed Noisers, it's time for more stupid body tricks. Part of an ongoing series, ( https://noise.cash/post/17nwgx8p , https://noise.cash/post/1gk7k6n2 ), until my body finally figures out how to self-destruct. My wife is gone today, traveling to the "big city" with her sister and brother-in-law to sell a truckload of copra, (dried coconut). So I had the opportunity to sit with our younger kid during his school lesson this morning. Which…
Life In The Philippine Provinces Life here in western Mindanao is in some ways unchanged from the way it was a hundred years ago. In the first pic you can see one of my wife's relatives, (she seems related to over half the people in this village!), transporting some huge stiff petioles from coconut palms. These are used as fuel for cooking here. Notice the "engine" of the wooden cart is a carabao. The second pic shows a baby bird, unable to fly, that a young lady, (daughter…
I'm Pissed Off!! I can put up with a lot of stupid shit from the Noise.cash automods, but when I work on a post for over an hour and I get the damn message shown in the pic below, then maybe it is time to move on to greener pastures. HOW THE FUCK CAN I SPAM MYSELF, PARTICULARLY WITH A LONG POST I JUST WROTE FROM SCRATCH?
"The Greatest Dapp Fork In The Known Universe?" Since the Noise.Cash automod has gone insane, I will have to split this post into two pieces. Note: I had to add quotes above, and this silly note, to get around Noise's malfunctioning spam filter. "Whatchoo talkin' 'bout, OB? I eat my beans with a spoon!" "No, I am not talking about the venerated vegetable, ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_qLhGc6XJho ), but rather a "yield farming" Dapp that has gone viral in the last few…
The Greatest Baked Beans Fork of All Time, Part Two "These are the four "investments" I am currently gambling with. If you wish to join any of them, I would appreciate it if you used my referral code." "Now I have only been doing this for about three weeks, so I have NO IDEA if any of these "investments" will be profitable or not, so if you want to imitate me you do so at your own risk!" "Baked Beans: shorturl.at/eiwAM" "Cryptos OTC: shorturl.at/nvO07" " MetaFiYielders:…
Why Does Noise.cash Hate Me? As you may or may not know, (or, quite frankly, care), yesterday I typed up a long post about my speculative crypto "investments". I had intended to post it here on Noise.cash so that y'all could learn from my experiences. Unfortunately the automod swatted me down, claiming my post was "spam". What did I do to trigger the automod's wrath? Was it the referral links. Does "https://metafiyielders.com/?r@f=arph001" set it off? ("ref" changed to "r@f"…
Posting About Crypto Investments Since Noise.cash apparently flips out if I post referral links about my crypto "investments", I decided to write about them instead on my unread and unloved blog. It's All About The Arbitrage! - https://gimmethecash.blogspot.com/2022/04/its-all-about-arbitrage.html . My lonely blog would love it if you would pay it a visit! Meanwhile ...... I guess I can post here about "acceptable" subjects, such as my breakfast, (cold cereal/muesli with…
Trouble Posting? Is anybody else having trouble posting now, or am I on the Noise.cash "naughty list"?
Anyone Else Having Trouble Posting? Well, I'm having trouble posting again. :-( Apparently I am copying from one of my unpublished posts? (WTF Noise?) Is anyone else having trouble posting, or am I on some sort of Noise.cash "naughty list"?
The Best Laid Plans Of Mice and Men ....... Recently I've written about four high risk crypto "investments" I joined, complete with referral links. (Noise.cash will have a tantrum if I post a referral link, so you'll have to find links to these projects here: https://gimmethecash.blogspot.com/2022/04/its-all-about-arbitrage.html .) I cautioned y'all that, as these project are high risk, DO NOT PUT MONEY INTO THEM THAT YOU CAN'T AFFORD TO LOSE. As luck would have it, I now…
Bad News For Safemoon HODLers The esteemed Coffeezilla recently released three videos describing the Safemoon fiasco: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CzbBi0agLNg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R_Fz-UF3wbA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kIUrE7Ovm5k It appears that Safemoon was a fraud from the get go, so if you're a fanatical member of the "Safemoon Army", it's probably time for you to find another cause to devote your life, (and moral outrage), to defending. I wonder if…
