Their inflation rate is already crazy, and it has another 10x to go

If I buy USDC at Coinbase, will I be able to withdraw it to an Algorand address or do I have to use an ETH address?

Is there something like uniswap for Algorand?

Here you find my detailed article regarding perfect Algorand project.

Right now I have both the mobile Algorand Wallet and Exodus.

Exodus yields 5.6 per year. Is there a difference between these two?

If the same, is there any point of staking in multiple wallets?

When will I see transactions of USDC on https://algoexplorer.io/

Thanks.

There are many exchanges which allow you to buy Etherum ERC-20 tokens. Some of them specialize only in these tokens (think uniswap, moonswap). Is there any such exchange for tokens based on the Algorand blockchain ?

Can anyone do it if they have some algorand?

Do you need to KYC with a central body?

Do you need permission?

Do you get block rewards for doing so?

​

Thanks

Based on all these smart contracts and Algorand being taking more seriously than Ethetrash, I see a bright month ahead. Why would any sane person use Ethetrash? 2.0 is the con of the year, the devs are working on a system that charges higher fees.

Any interest in a daily discussion thread to talk about news, price, memes, etc.? Mods, is this a possibility?

What does this say? To me, it says that this coin was not only overhyped, it was and is completely overvalued as of this date. It has a near 90% ROI. In my opinion, that means early investors didn’t get what they were expecting, the pre-ICO team was way off base, and the valuation was done by persons inexperienced with the crypto space. It’s hard to see how the miss could have been so far off.

77% (approx.) of eligible buyers took advantage of the early refund process. This says a lot about confidence of returns. The auction schedule has changed which now favors early backers/relay nodes in a questionable manner. And there is no information as to the next auction which leaves relay nodes as one of the few mechanisms by which large amounts of coins are introduced into the market.

Billions of coins still need to enter the market and the process is to hold off on auctions and allow relay nodes and founders to stabilize the price via timing of the introduction of coins. In short, managed demand for a product that does not have the retail demand to move the price to near introduction value.

Wrapped Bitcoin had a 6 month head start and an almost 300% difference in ROI. as far as Zcash, we won’t go there. But it is interesting to note that it uses some of Micali’s work and Zooko Wilcox-O’Hearn did reference prior works by Micali re: the Goldwasser-Micali-Rivest Signature Scheme.

I may have to amend my prediction of ETH displacement by several years since it’s very unclear now as to when all coins will be in the market. Think about it, would you invest in a 401k that had a ROI of near -90% ? This isn’t FUD. Where most coins provided a reasonable valuation, Algorand for some odd reason had this ridiculous valuation which exposes the inexperience relative to the crypto space. “Let’s hire some folks, tell them what we FEEL it’s worth, and get some people to market it. Oops looks like we seriously overvalued this thing.”

Schedule the auctions back to the original timeline. Let the price be dictated by the market as it needs to be. This will generate the needed demand and the price/valuation will be corrected by market forces and not a select group. Sure some will lose, but some will gain in the sell off. There is no way to moon if a select group regulates the influx of coins without a competing mechanism.

This is not financial advice. Do your own research. This post is for entertainment purposes only.

Is there currently any other use for ALGO other than investments? Are there any places that accept it, or anything else you can do with it when it comes to smart contracts/dapps etc?
