Reviewing 2022 in Cryptocurrency https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BX6nmkNQZmk Less than 12 short months ago, BTC was trading at over 50K, Ethereum was trading at over 4K, and the entire crypto world looked forward to 2022 with the hope that easing lockdown restrictions and a growing economy would bring good fortune to the crypto market. It was predicted that Bitcoin would reach over 100k, adoption would grow, and a new financial paradigm would emerge. Although many of these rosy predictions didn't come true, others, such as SBF’s foreshadowing that many crypto exchanges were “secretly insolvent” proved eerily accurate, and billions of dollars were lost through exchange failures, hacks, and scams. Join me in today’s video where we recap the biggest crypto news of 2022. #crypto #cryptonews #ftx https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/crypto https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/cryptonews https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/ftx

Splinterlands Soulbound Rewards - Another Nerf or Brilliant Anti-Bot Measure?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp0JyazMx6M The Splinterlands blockchain-based video game has considered introducing solulbound NFT rewards cards in an effort to stop bots from farming the rewards, selling them, and driving down the value that real players earn from interacting with the game. Although the intentions behind the introduction of soulbound NFT rewards in Splinterlands are noble, will it really help? Or, will bots find a way around the proposed changes and continue to extract maximum value from Splinterlands simply by the raw number of matches they play? I'll let you be the judge because in today's video, we are talking all about soulbound rewards in Splinterlands, what they mean for the game, what they mean for bots, and most importantly, what they mean for you the player. #nft #splinterlands #crypto Support my work here https://linktr.ee/ThePartTimeEconomist https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/nft https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/splinterlands https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/crypto
Save America for only $99 - Analyzing Trump's Superhero NFT Drop https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FudoDJ5osJo Donald Trump's recent superhero NFT drop quickly sold out, and the floor price of the Trump NFTs on OpenSea is currently sitting at about 4X the initial purchase price of $99. This implies that both the collection and initial Trump NFT investors received a handsome reward, but there could be an even bigger reward as each additional sale of the Trump NFT collection receives a 10% creator fee. In this post, we will briefly explore the Trump NFT collection while also examining some of the advantages that NFT drops could play for future political fundraising. #nft #trump2024 #trumpnft As always, not investment or political advice.

Cryptocurrency and Contrarian Investing - Fear and Greed + RSI Explained https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N1_qLyunSZQ The legendary Warren Buffet once said that it is wise for investors to be “fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful.” Similarly, the infamous Nathan Rothschild said that "the time to buy is when there's blood in the streets." As the cryptocurrency market continues to experience unprecedented volatility, many investors wonder if it is the perfect time to buy or if now is the time to sell before the price crashes further. Although this is NOT a financial advice or trading strategy video, the recent crash of the cryptocurrency market makes it a perfect time to discuss what contrarian investing is as well as the significance of the fear and greed index and relative strength index in the crypto markets. #crypto #btc #cryptonews https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/crypto https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/btc https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/cryptonews
Forbes Article Gets $100 Billion Bitcoin Price Prediction WRONG??? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mL8LjrYGL1Y Outrageous cryptocurrency price predictions are nothing new with many people seeking to gain clout and followers by predicting either an extremely high price or, in other cases, predicting that the price of bitcoin will go to zero. While sensationalist cryptocurrency price predictions are both amusing and understandable, we generally expect that more established financial publications will perform their due diligence and offer relatively accurate insight. That's why this recent article by Forbes that mentioned a 100 billion price prediction for BTC caught my eye. This wasn't some average joe making a bold bullish prediction, but a well-respected financial website. If they were reporting a $100 Billion Bitcoin price prediction, it certainly deserved my attention.....so...I looked into the article only to find that they had confused the difference between price and market capitalization. Mixups such as these remind us it is always important to do our own research in crypto and fact-check our sources even when they are generally well respected. In today's post, we will cover the difference between market cap and price while also explaining just how hilariously absurd a 100 Billion Bitcoin price prediction would be. This article is not financial advice, and I would also like to say that this is in no way intended to poke fun at Forbes. Simple errors can be made by anyone, but I do feel that this presents a good teaching point. #crypto #btc #priceprediction https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/crypto https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/btc https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/priceprediction
Nexo Calls It Quits - Why Regulatory Uncertainty Hurts US Crypto Users https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFJGjRC_Lb4 Over the past couple of years, we have seen the worst of the worst when it comes to crypto lenders. Celsius, FTX, and countless other firms have lost billions in customer funds and face accusations of mismanagement. So, if there was a cryptocurrency lender that could demonstrate proof of reserves, had a stable track record of safeguarding users' funds, and was working with regulators, one would think that regulators would welcome them with open arms and work together to forge a partnership between regulators and crypto that would show the world the true power of a properly regulated crypto lender. Unfortunately, we see that this is not the case, and crypto lender Nexo just announced it is leaving the US market. No, Nexo hasn't mishandled customer funds or lost billions. Despite working with regulators for over 18 months, they simply can't get a straight answer on how to comply with US cryptocurrency regulation, so they are calling it quits in the US market. In today's post, we will examine how a lack of regulatory clarity discourages honest cryptocurrency companies while encouraging the wreckless companies that don't care about regulations
Coinbase Wallet vs Apple - What Does It Mean For Your NFTs?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nTOTa8xWPI In the latest cryptocurrency drama, many Apple users woke up to find that they could no longer sell or transfer their NFTs out of their Coinbase wallets. This nasty surprise is all thanks to Apple's policy which requires a 30% cut of all in-app purchase fees. Despite demanding a 30% fee, Apple's in-built payment system simply doesn't work with crypto, and Coinbase was unable to comply with Apple's demands and had to remove the NFT feature to remain listed on the app store. So, what does this mean for the countless users who now have their NFTs stuck in the Coinbase wallet, what does this mean for decentralization, and what's the solution? We're talking all about it in today's video. #coinbase #crypto #nft https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/coinbase https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/crypto https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/nft
Deflationary Cryptocurrencies Explained - With Examples https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n6Vk0WV4pf8 Contrary to popular belief, having a limited or fixed supply does not make a cryptocurrency or other asset inherently valuable. Rather, price is determined by both supply AND demand, and assets that are produced in small quantities (limited edition NFTs, deflationary cryptos) can still decline in value if there is no demand. In today's post, we will explain that true scarcity in the economic sense depends on both supply and demand. Further, we will analyze why deflationary assets don't always go up in price. As always, this is not financial advice and is simply a best-efforts attempt to explain basic economics.
Composability, DeFi, and "Money Legos" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LVXbH8kG8bY People often say that Decentralized Finance (DeFi) is like "money legos" and that the composability of cryptocurrency is the key to building a new financial future, but what does this mean? In today's post, I'll explain how different DeFi protocols can seamlessly work together to create synergies. We will also take a look at some non-crypto examples to explain why composability and interoperability are so important to building increasingly advanced systems. #defi #crypto #eth
No Free Lunch - Comparing Crypto Transaction Fee Models https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhZUs6yYGkw Why do some cryptocurrencies charge users high transaction fees to use the blockchain while other cryptocurrencies are "gas-free cryptocurrencies" that don't charge fees for each transaction? Are some cryptocurrencies greedier than others, or could there be a legitimate reason for transaction fees? Join me in today's video as we discuss why transaction fees are necessary and compare and contrast the ways that transaction fees are implemented differently across blockchains. #crypto #btc #waxp
Liquidity, Order Books, and Binance - Crypto Basics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-gfty5v4LQc Cryptocurrency exchange Binance recently grabbed the news headlines with the announcement that it will automatically convert users' USDP, USDC, and TUSD stablecoins into Binance's proprietary BUSD stablecoin. Critics alleged that Binance was trying to gain an advantage over its competitors that issued the other stablecoins. However, Binance officially maintains that the move to convert users' stablecoins will increase liquidity and enhance the customer's trading experience. Regardless of who we believe in this situation, we must answer several important questions. What is liquidity, how does liquidity work, and why is liquidity so important for cryptocurrency traders? #crypto #defi #binance https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/crypto https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/defi https://www.youtube.com/hashtag/binance
Fractional Reserve Banking - What is it?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DfPcSj-NtM If you're new to cryptocurrency, you may occasionally hear the term "fractional reserve banking" used negatively. Even if you don't understand what fractional reserve baking is, the ominous tone of the podcaster's voice clearly lets you know that crypto is the answer and solution to the dreaded fractional reserve banking. But why is fractional reserve banking so bad? How did fractional reserve baking start, and are there any benefits of fractional reserve baking? Lastly, what makes cryptocurrency lending and DeFi different from fractional reserve baking? That's the subject of today's video. #defi #crypto #banking References https://www.investopedia.com/terms/f/fractionalreservebanking.asp#:~:text=under%20its%20charge.-,Fractional%20Reserve%20Multiplier%20Effect,or%2010%25%2C%20in%20reserve. https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/reservereq.htm https://ethplorer.io/
What Are Vesting Schedules in Cryptocurrency?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TRfQihNwQ6Q Unfortunately, it seems like we are constantly hearing about "pump and dump" scams in cryptocurrency where a project will create a token out of thin air and promise that it will change the world, empower the poor, and bank the unbanked. With no intention of actually delivering on these promises, the founders offload their cryptocurrency to unwary buyers and they enrich themselves while average investors are left holding the bag of a now worthless cryptocurrency. Although the secrecy of many cryptocurrency projects makes preventing such scams virtually impossible, a concept known as a "vesting schedule" aligns founders' interests with that of investors by making it impossible for them to sell their cryptocurrency before a specific time. In theory, this is designed to incentivize the founders to focus on the long-term sustainability of the project because they know their tokens will only be valuable if the project is still viable once their vesting schedule is complete. As always, my videos are not financial advice and should be taken as my best effort to provide crypto education. #defi #crypto #cryptocurrency References https://coinmarketcap.com/alexandria/glossary/vesting-period https://token.unlocks.app/
Governance Tokens VS Proof Of Stake - What's The Difference? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7GLJLrwhgI Proof of stake cryptocurrencies such as Solana, Cardano, and ETH 2.0 allow a decentralized network of participants to maintain the integrity of the network by verifying that transactions follow the rules of the blockchain. If we already have a way of governing the network through proof of stake, then why do we need governance tokens? In this post, I'll use the WAX blockchain and the Splinterlands governance token (SPS) to explain the differences between proof of stake cryptocurrencies and governance tokens and how they are both essential aspects of cryptocurrency. We will also briefly discuss the similarities and differences between governance voting in crypto vs shareholder voting in the traditional stock market. As with all of my videos, this is not financial advice and any use of a specific project/token/chain is simply to provide a tangible illustration of a broader concept. #crypto #sps #cryptocurrency
Crypto 101 - What Is A Test Net? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMkNskVQIVw A recent feature update on the Cardano blockchain caused a "catastrophic" failure that wiped out over two years of transaction history. Thankfully, this occurred on a test net and although no real funds were lost, this Cardano example brings up a good point that applies to the broader cryptocurrency world. What is a test net, how do they work, and why are test nets so important to cryptocurrency blockchains? As always, this is not financial advice. Rather it is my best effort attempt to provide general cryptocurrency education. #ada #cardano #vasil
The Merge Is Upon Us - What To Know! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cj-vdzWTwlQ The long-awaited merge of the Ethereum blockchain from proof of work to proof of stake is expected within the next month, but what does this merge mean? In this video, I'll give a brief overview of the difference between proof of work and proof of stake consensus mechanisms and explain why the transition from proof of work to proof of stake is such a major accomplishment. I'll also briefly discuss the implications of this merge for average users. This is not a financial advice video but a technical overview of an unprecedented transformation of one of the most used cryptocurrency blockchains. #ethereum #merge #eth2
Crypto Exchange Regulation Could Be......Good??? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=duvRBxpVmK8 SEC Chairman Gary Gensler recently announced that he sees no difference between crypto and traditional stock markets. According to Gary Gensler, crypto exchanges should therefore be subject to similar rules, regulations, and customer protections found in the traditional stock market. In today's post, we will look at some of the protections and safeguards provided for customers in the traditional stock market and analyze how those protections could apply to the cryptocurrency market.
Trash to Treasure - $163 Million BTC Lost In Landfill https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KOVG5ZWaSHY One cryptocurrency user recently made headlines for his $6 Million proposal to hire workers, machines, and even robot dogs to scour a landfill for his old hard drive that was claimed to have $163 Million worth of lost Bitcoin on it. Although this case is certainly interesting, he is far from being the only crypto user to accidentally lose cryptocurrency that was stored on their device. Just as we have seen with the recent meltdown of custodial crypto storage solutions like Celsius, it appears that there are also risks involved in storing crypto yourself. The inability to completely avoid risk may lead many new crypto users to throw up their hands in dismay and assume that crypto is just too risky. In today's post, I'd like to point out that although both custodial and noncustodial crypto storage solutions have risks, the risks are different, and each user has the ability to make tradeoffs between the risks that they are willing to assume. As always, this is not financial advice. #crypto #cryptocurrency #btc
Coinbase vs the SEC - Why Crypto Regulation is So Complex https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UvGcXHfRHos It was recently announced that the SEC accused a former Coinbase employee of violating existing securities regulations by trading crypto on insider information. Coinbase fired back by saying that the cryptocurrencies on their website are NOT securities and thus fall outside of existing securities regulations. Whether or not cryptocurrencies are securities has far-reaching implications that extend beyond the particulars of this specific case, and we currently see many other cryptocurrencies (XRP and LBC) engaged in lawsuits with the SEC regarding their status as securities. This recent cryptocurrency news opens many questions. Why do cryptos NOT want to be classified as securities? Why does the SEC think some cryptos are securities and some aren't? Why is cryptocurrency regulation so complex? We'll discuss each of these topics in today's video. #coinbase #crypto #cryptocurrency
Archmage Splinterlands Bot - Is This The Future of NFTs?? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LT0scb1K0BQ The recent launch of the Splinterlands Archmage bot, and its accompanying NFT token, proves what I have been trying to tell people for months. NFTs can be used for so much more than the simple representation of digital art which seems to gather all the media attention. In today's post. I'd like to explain how the Archmage Splinterlands bot could be a glimpse into the future of a world where NFTs are used not just for recording ownership of digital artwork but also for serving as "access tokens" that allow users to access online services. In contrast to a traditional subscription that is a non-transferable contract between the original party and the original purchaser, subscriptions that are represented as NFTs have the added benefit of being transferable between parties on the secondary market. As with all of my videos, this is not financial advice, and I am not recommending or disrecommending any particular projects or coins. Rather, the goal is to use recent news to provide a tangible, relatable example of theoretical cryptocurrency and NFT concepts. Thanks for dropping by
Protect Your Crypto - Tips for Self Custody🔒 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uc8RQEkLs7I With the recent announcements that cryptocurrency lending platforms Celsius and Voyager have stopped allowing customers to withdraw their own funds, many well-meaning crypto influencers have urged cryptocurrency holders to move their funds off of centralized providers and into their own self-custody cryptocurrency wallets. Although holding your cryptocurrency in your own wallet can be more secure than leaving your crypto on an exchange, holding your own cryptocurrency also requires more diligence as you assume full responsibility for your assets. In this post, I'll explain some of the risks of storing your crypto yourself, and we will discuss the difference between cryptocurrency passwords and seed phrases. Lastly, I'll show you how to use your seed phrase to restore your wallet and recover lost crypto. #crypto #cryptocurrency #celsius
Don't Get Liquidated! - Explaining Over Collateralized DeFi Loans https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q75ZR33YOPg Since DeFi protocols can't perform credit checks or assess the credit worthiness of borrowers using the same tools of traditional finance, they typically rely on loan over-collateralization to ensure that lenders will be able to receive their funds back. When borrowers' outstanding loan balances exceed their loan collateral value, they are "liquidated" by third parties that swoop in, repay the loan, and make a profit. In today's post, I'll explain why overcollateralized loans are essential to DeFi, how over-collateralized loans work, and how liquidations function. #crypto #defi #comp References https://www.investopedia.com/ https://zengo.com/understanding-compounds-liquidation/#Compounds_Liquidation https://medium.com/defi-saver/liquidations-in-defi-how-they-happen-and-how-to-prevent-them-9caddd52de71
Peter Schiff, Banks, Crypto, and Irony https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QBrY9ZnWP1g In a recent tweet, famed gold bug and Bitcoin Basher Peter Schiff mentioned that one of his bank accounts was closed for what were presumably unfounded reasons. Many crypto enthusiasts have used this as an "I told you so moment" to highlight the fact that the cryptocurrencies that Peter so wholeheartedly disparages are designed to prevent the very thing that has happened to him. Although there is a certain bit of irony in the situation, I think it's important not to make fun of someone's misfortune, and I'd rather take a more nuanced approach. In this post, I'll explain how cryptocurrencies are designed to protect individuals from the overreach of third-party financial institutions, and I'll also explain some of the differences between gold and crypto. #crypto #btc #cryptocurrency
Cryptocurrency Investors Aren't "Lazy"😠 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ATXTImkBP2Y I recently watched a video where the host suggested that cryptocurrency was a popular investment because Millennials are lazy investors who are unwilling to follow traditional methods of building wealth such as starting their own businesses. As a millennial and a crypto investor, this statement hit me pretty hard and got me thinking. Do Millennials invest in cryptocurrency because they are too lazy to build their own business, or are there other factors that cause Millennials to have a disproportionate interest in crypto? In today's post, I'd like to make the case that Millennials are disproportionately likely to be cryptocurrency investors due to unique circumstances their generation has experienced. Rather than simply being lazy investors, I suggest that Millennials' interest in cryptocurrency stems from a logical desire to improve their situation while minimizing downside risk and a willingness to embrace new concepts as opposed to the traditional institutions that they feel have already let them down. #crypto #doge #btc References https://www.cnbc.com/2021/07/06/millennial-dogecoin-millionaire-on-being-paid-in-dogecoin.html https://www.businessinsider.com/average-american-millennial-net-worth-student-loan-debt-savings-habits-2019-6 https://smallbiztrends.com/2022/01/how-much-does-it-cost-to-start-a-business.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Millennials
Arbitrage and Flash Loans Explained - Crypto Basics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0U1gtOeAbUQ The phrase "buy low and sell high" typically applies to purchasing an asset and holding it across a period of time to sell at a later point when the asset appreciates. Thankfully, simply HODLing crypto isn't the only way to "buy low and sell high". Arbitrage is the process of buying an asset in one market and then instantly selling the same asset in a different market to profit from pricing inefficiencies across different exchanges. Although arbitrage has been around since the dawn of exchanging goods, the advent of blockchain technology has made this process more efficient and instantaneous through the application of smart contracts and "flash loans". In this post, we'll cover the basics of what arbitrage is and how it works, and then we will learn how flash loans offer additional features not present in traditional arbitrage. #defi #crypto #aave References https://www.investopedia.com/terms/a/arbitrage.asp https://etherscan.io/gastracker https://cointelegraph.com/explained/what-are-flash-loans-in-defi https://medium.com/aave/sneak-peek-at-flash-loans-f2b28a394d62
Cryptocurrency Contagion Effect -- What Does That Even Mean? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ppA6TWbVYD4 If you've been watching the news lately, you have likely heard many cryptocurrency experts worried about a possible "contagion effect" that will lead to an extended bear market and could even spread to other parts of the economy. Although it's not my role to speculate on future cryptocurrency prices, I do think having an understanding of the "contagion effect" is a fundamental concept not just in crypto but for understanding macroeconomics in general. In this post, we'll discuss the basics of what the contagion effect is, why it is so scary, and some of the ways that we attempt to mitigate the risk of a contagion effect in the economy. #crypto #defi #celsius References https://cointelegraph.com/news/sbf-and-alameda-step-in-to-prevent-crypto-collapse-contagion https://blog.celsius.network/a-memo-to-the-celsius-community-59532a06ecc6 https://study.com/academy/lesson/the-great-depression-around-the-world-causes-impact-responses.html https://www.investopedia.com/
Customers Loose Billions? ? - Explaining Crypto Lending Meltdown https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gmgtHu-MiGM People who believed that cryptocurrency is more secure, decentralized, and trustworthy than the existing financial system were in for quite a surprise this week when crypto lending platform Celsius announced that it would temporarily block customers from withdrawing their own funds. Wasn't the entire purpose of crypto to make sure that people were protected from financial institutions abusing their funds? In this post, I'll explain that although cryptocurrency itself does have advantages over traditional finance with regards to being permissionless, decentralized, and more secure, many of those advantages are lost when crypto is deposited with a third-party custodian. As always, this is not advice and is not an endorsement or disendorsement of any company. It is merely designed to show how the advantages of crypto are mitigated when it is used as a traditional asset. #crypto #celsius #cryptocurrency Note: It is possible that this situation may be resolved by the time you are watching the video.

NFTs -Hype vs The Potential https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tuj5dlJefPo Just a few short months ago, NFTs were all the rage with some NFTs selling for millions of dollars. Fast forward a few months and some NFT prices have dropped by 90% or more, and rumors and accusations of frauds, rug pulls, and scams circulate like wildfire. Although there certainly have been a lot of NFT projects that didn't live up to their promises, I think it's important to look past the hype and examine the technology behind NFTs and why it is so revolutionary. In this post, I'd like to distinguish the revolutionary technology behind NFTs from the somewhat disappointing headlines that you might have heard. #nft #crypto #splinterlands References https://www.businessofbusiness.com/ https://www.yahoo.com/video/death-nft-cryptopunk-bought-1-125424481.html https://peakmonsters.com/
DeFi Oracles, What Are They and How Do They Work? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mqrwR3t6XOs Cryptocurrency smart contracts and DeFi protocols have taken finance to the next level by empowering people across the globe to buy, sell, lend, borrow, and trade assets without the need for a trusted middle man. Despite the power of smart contracts and DeFi, there is still room for improvement. Namely, smart contracts have no way of seeing real world data or being triggered by actual events. In order to assure a decentralized, robust data feed, many smart contracts rely on entities known as oracles. If you're unfamiliar with oracles or how they work, then this is the post for you! #crypto #link #chainlink References https://cryptoslate.com/chainlink/ https://chain.link/data-feeds https://www.kaleido.io/blockchain-blog/how-chainlink-works-under-the-covers https://medium.com/stakin/the-top-decentralized-oracles-169b94dfbb83
