I think the top 10 coins are there for a reason. Look into XLM and XRP, as well as Cardano and Algo they are going to skyrocket and are already being implemented more than BTC and ETH are. I'm actually earning 6% on my Algo on coinbase, just sitting there. Its a guaranteed return while I don't use it.

I've heard some great things about chainlink being integrated into Oracles platform. I am looking to buy some into my portfolio.

That's amazing! 10 ETH is well over $30k. Talk about ROI....Taxes are taxes, you pay the same for capital gains if you hold for a year that you do on your payroll. Even short term capital gains are low if you're in a lower tax bracket. Thing is if you make so much on crypto increase your 401k to max and $6k into IRA, that way you can save a bunch, make a bunch, and get taxed as little as possible!

My crypto is up an insane amount. I've made close to $5k in a week. Waiting for the next dip to buy more.

I really need to take advantage of that free beer. Totally forgot about that.

Finally convinced my work from home wife to get the vaccine. She has some autoimmune issues, so was hesitant.

We have that in Buffalo, along with 100-150" of snow per year.

https://www.weather.gov/buf/BUFtemp 96/97 were both 46.9 degrees here in Buffalo. We haven't had a 46 degree year since then. 2014 was close, but even that came short. 2014- 47 2015- 48.5 Last year was 2nd warmest year on record at 51.5, behind 2012 52.1 There have been 11 50+ deg years in Buffalos recording history (1940) and 9 of them have come 1990-Present.

I think winters got warmer too. Once the 90s go away and we get the 30 year temps from 2000-2030 the average yearly temps will skyrocket. 96 and 97 were very cold.

Some huge news today The Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine is incredibly effective against severe disease caused by two variants, studies say https://www.nytimes.com/live/2021/05/05/world/covid-vaccine-coronavirus-cases#pfizer-vaccine-variants-covid

I'm shocked our temp didn't rise more over the last 30 years with all the above normal temps we've been having. About .1 degrees every decade at current pace. Looks like 96-97 were quite cold years. The 2000-2030 update will likely see that average go way up unless we get some much colder air. https://www.weather.gov/buf/BUFtemp

Why can't we get this in winter?

Blue Jays are playing in Buffalo all summer. They are my adopted team. Cannot wait to go to MLB games in my backyard.

Did temps go up for everyone in near 30 year average?

You can buy other crypto on coinbase and send to atomic wallet and convert back to XRP on coinbase. But not currently tradable there. Its in the middle of the lawsuit with the SEC

This is crazy. This is identical to what happened to me. I was watching the Texans/Titans game around 7 pm and fell to the floor so dizzy I could barely see. I also had trouble breathing. I was completely relaxed watching a football game. I waited about 30 minutes to see if symptoms would go away but they didn't. I went to ER and had a bunch of tests done. They happened off and on for about 2 weeks, but that first 5 days were the worst. Another bad episode was watching Mulan with my wife and the same thing happened to me. I tried to stop watching TV thinking that was my trigger, but then I woke up 2 nights that week at 2 am with episodes that lasted 2-3 hours. Many medical bills later and current diagnoses was "panic attacks". Even though all of my episodes were from either sleeping or watching TV laying down on my couch. Something isn't right there when I've never had them before. I had one anxiety attack about 3 years ago, but it went away within 20-30 minutes and it built up to it. This was sudden and hit me like a truck, it felt so bad I cannot put it into words. I never got officially diagnosed with covid, but I was around many people that were. For me it was no coincidence that everyone at my work got it a week after these events occurred. Covid is scarier than I thought.

Like the company Ripple, who owns 40-50% of the crypto XRP? They are already working with banks to develop this. https://ripple.com/xrp/

I think 99% of most people don't completely understand crypto outside of those in the tech industry. It has future use in banking, healthcare, real estate, supply chain, etc...It isn't something useless. We are seeing NFL players take their paychecks in Bitcoin, that doesn't happen unless there is something real there. https://www.investopedia.com/terms/b/blockchain.asp In terms of lottery and investing. Tesla has been overvalued for years. It's P/E ratio was trading at 1,000 times historic earnings which is insane. It didn't stop people from making a bunch of money off of it the last few years. My coworker works there and cashed out stock options to buy a house with it.

Buf, Roc, and Syracuse all saw their average snowfall increase Syracuse gained 4 inches on their annual snowfall to bring the yearly average to 127.8 inches.

Glad I'll be out west next week.

I guess it depends. I don't see how the virtual world won't continue to grow and prosper. Items in video games have been sold for thousands for over 2 decades online. They in themselves have no "real" value, but they are sold for real life money for people that want them in their games. Impossible to predict the future, but if I had to bet it would be on this continuing. Covid kind of pushed us forward about a decade in terms of everyone working virtually, communicating virtually, etc...

Things are worth what people are willing to pay for them. Like the virtual planet that sold for 6 million. Does that thing really have any value? There are now talks about virtual trading cards, and its becoming a big business. We're moving into a world like that movie Tron. https://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/bulls/ct-sports-trading-cards-virtual-20210331-gjzaedcarze4rktov32lzjfixq-story.html
