WTF is now wrong, all cryptos down?

Hedge against BTC is difficult I find. I asked a crypto specialist to help me‌ against a % , I will have to wait a little to see if he‍ makes me money or it's wasting time.
 
Monero has been going up big. And just like that, Monero bros are starting to‌ talk like Bitcoiners, getting excited about getting rich with it. People sell out their values‍ very easily.
 
there is a quote "they think your only⁠ goal is to make money " that precedes this profound response




but I couldn't find⁤ the whole clip...

now more seriously... when you feel so frequently that so many people⁣ act so differently from what you consider right then it's time to at least try⁢ to reconsider your view
 
I won't say no to getting rich, but at the cost of a cryptocurrency's function?‌ You may as well buy a penny stock.

Monero is a beautiful coin, the governments‍ can't trace it at all, that's why they order exchanges to delist it. This untraceability⁠ means we can buy and sell goods, even earn a living, without state interference. It⁤ is Bitcoin 2.0 - what Bitcoin was supposed to be. Now it's clear that even⁣ the die hard Monero bros will turn Monero into a pyramid scheme when the lure⁢ of riches comes along.

Would you buy a house with Monero if in a year's︀ time, the same amount could buy 2 houses? When it gets like that, the currency︁ is no longer stable, and people no longer trade with it for day-to-day transactions.

Look at https://xmrbazaar.com/ which is like Monero eBay. If Monero moons, everyone will hodl and nobody︂ will conduct transactions on there anymore. Businesses go bust when people don't spend.
 
google Gresham's law and you will understand that such a behavior is nothing new nor surprising,⁤ it's well justified and you're just "impatient" - people will stop hoarding the best money⁣ once nobody will accept the defective money - we are in the process of a⁢ historical event of unprecedented transformation, people obviously spend the worthless currency they earn and those︀ who already earn only crypto assets spend that - there are not that many yet︁ and the good money they hold also changed their time preferences and habits when it︂ comes to consumption - it will happen no doubt but I have to disappoint you...︃ the last man standing won't be Monero
 
I’m confident that the major crypto coins will recover as soon as there’s even a‌ hint of hope and optimism in the world again.

However, I believe that as long‍ as the war continues and the U.S. remains unpredictable, the financial markets will stay unstable.⁠
 
I hedge in BTC, I short the inverse perp at 1x for whatever % of‍ my balance I want to hedge.

See above.
 
Check the GENIUS act.

We need‌ a stablecoin with no blacklist function, an endogenous one. pDAI!
 
this is way above pay grade I'm afraid

a stable coin must be by definition centralized (i.e. compared to USD taking event more counter‍ party risk in exchange for less friction to transact)
 
A stablecoin isn’t, by definition, centralised. That’s⁠ just true for custodial ones like USDC. DAI and potentially pDAI show it’s entirely possible⁤ to have decentralised stablecoins backed by crypto collateral instead of fiat reserves. With no blacklist⁣ function.
 
what is⁠ a stable coin backed by another crypto asset good for? I mean compared to holding⁤ and transacting directly given asset...
 
Because you

Capital efficiency, You get the permissionless access of DeFi while getting the predictability of a stable‍ dollar peg... 1 DAI = 1 USD. Maybe even 1 pDAI = 1 USD soon⁠ for a truly decentralised stable.
 
If they have millions, or just hundreds of thousands of followers, all of whom are‌ interested in Bitcoin or crypto, I believe it can work.
