A Short Trip To Forest Park Resort, Dahilayan, Bukidnon. (Mindanao, Of Course!) This past Sunday and Monday we, (my family, my wife's sister's family, and assorted neighbors/relatives), took a short trip to a nice resort in Bukidnon. Most of us had never been to Bukidnon, so it was quite an adventure. This place is sorta southeast of Cagayan de Oro. Once the road from CDO turned south, it wound up and up and up and up! The views of the bay/ocean way below us were amazing.…

Is My Obsession Making Me "Premature"? If you've read my recent posts here, and on my unread and unloved blog, ( https://gimmethecash.blogspot.com ), you'll know that I have been obsessed with several money making websites, and have been trying to verify they actually work and pay out as fast as I can, so that I can help those of you who want to make some extra money. (And who doesn't want/need some extra money?) Unfortunately in my haste to get this info out, I may be…

Somebody Sent Me $1.23 I haven't been active here on Noise.cash for a few days. As happens when I'm not active, my Free Tips have dried up. Because of this I expected that I wouldn't be doing much on Noise.cash today, as I don't like being on here just to drain BCH from my wallet. (If I don't have Free Tips to send, then I have to use the QR code and send tips from my wallet.) However, two days ago someone sent me a tip of $1.23. I don't know who sent this tip, or why, but…

The Joys Of Being A Citizen Of The "Land of the Free" My country, 'tis of thee, Sweet land of liberty, Of thee I ask, ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKj7FLg3WVA ): Why, oh WHY, do you block me from many crypto investment opportunities? I'm an adult, and my mind is at least as sound as that of our President, the hapless Mr. Biden. Let me decide what I will or will not invest in! Maybe folks are correct, that if you are going to become wealthy via crypto, then a passport…

@OldBastard

Grrr ....... I Guess The Fates Don't Want Me To Use Noise.cash! After not using Noise.cash for a while, I noticed my Free Tips had dried up. I thought that this was going to keep me from interacting with folks here, because while I like to tip, I don't like to lose money, (take BCH from my wallet), whilst doing so. Then something wonderful happened! A kind user, ( @Lydsandra ), sent me some money. ( https://noise.cash/post/l9zv7kqm ) So now I could use this money to give…

OMG!! WTF is going on with the crypto markets? A 10% drop overnight? Yikes!! Thursday, May 4th is not shaping up to be a happy day for us crypto investors. I guess a silver lining, (although I would say the lining is more like rusty iron), on this cloud of bad news is that the stock market is going down too, at least in the USA. But a stock market decline, (or even collapse), was kinda expected. Did anyone expect crypto to belly flop like it just did? So what do we do now?…

@OldBastard

Oh Poop!! Is COTPS.com Starting To Rug Pull? It's been a rough time for the crypto world recently. Besides the overall market bellyflop, we've had some folks get wiped out by the Luna/UST collapse. It really would be nice to hear some good news regarding crypto. Well, unfortunately, I do NOT have any good news to report right now. In fact, it appears that a site I've had high hopes for, (and have been fixating on for over a month), the once wonderful cotps.com, has just gone…

God Works In Wondrous Ways! About a month ago I sunk some money into six different DeFi projects, hoping that at least one would pan out and I would "strike it rich". These six projects were: 1. Baked Beans 2. Turd Burglar 3. Cryptos OTC 4. MetaFiYielders 5. Swapnex 6. Thor Wallet Now to be honest, Turd Burglar was just a satirical site created by Justin Pratt, ( https://www.youtube.com/c/JustinPratt1/videos ), so I put money into it just to help him out, not expecting much,…

Sifting Through The LUNA/UST Crash If you have any interest in crypto at all, you've undoubtably noticed that LUNA and UST have recently crashed horrifically, wiping out $32 billion, (or $45 billion?), or so of assets in a few days. Even if you were not invested in LUNA or UST, (mercifully I was not!), this crash will have lingering effects on your ability to make money in the crypto markets, because besides suppressing the value of all cryptos, it provides a huge…

@OldBastard

There Is No Pilot Was the crash of LUNA/UST inevitable? If Do Kwon wasn't such an arrogant jerk, could this disaster have been prevented? I think I just found crypto's current theme music: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CL2a8fos5NI . If you browse through the pics, you can see that some folks thought the collapse of LUNA/UST was not only inevitable, but could be easily triggered. And as always, Do Kwon arrogantly labeled anyone who disagreed with his assessment of LUNA/UST…

A Really Good, Inspiring Tale Amongst all the crap we have to keep experiencing recently, (crypto markets remaining sluggish, DeFi scams proliferating, soldiers, civilians and students being shot and killed around the world, and now "Monkey Pox"! WTF!!), it would be nice to hear some good news occasionally, if for no better reason than to restore our faith in human nature. May I present to you the story of Nicholas Winton: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dRgE6ld6WVM .
