Coin Market Cap says there are 4521 coins.  That may be all that Coin Market Cap keeps track of.  There may be more.  I have no idea. One reason for this is the fact that there are more than 4,000 cryptocurrencies in existence as of January 2021 There are approximately 5,392 cryptocurrencies being traded with a total market capitalisation of $201bn (as of April 22, 2020). Forget about the dreams and thank God for what you have.  Thank you Lord Jesus.  Yes, there can be thoughts of things getting even better financially.  And there can be thoughts of things getting worse financially.  And if your health breaks down that could be all she wrote. ETH and BTC are the two big ones.  BTC one could say is obviously the big dog and the OG.  But ETH appears to have some potential.  I will put a small amount in each for educational purposes. Now for $10 per month I could go read the Pomp newsletter right now.  But at this time I will save the ...

Interesting that I was able to read this article even though it appears to be behind the paywall when I follow my link to Bankless newsletter home page. Appears that because I searched for the story on google and it the article came up as one of the search results and I followed the link via the search results I was then able to read the entire article. When I go to bankless newsletter home page and attempt to read the same article, it tells me that the article is for paid subscribers only. https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/p/visa-is-going-to-pay-eth-holders-ebe   https://twitter.com/BanklessHQ   https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/   David Hoffman.eth https://twitter.com/TrustlessState RYAN SΞAN ADAMS - rsa.eth https://twitter.com/RyanSAdams/ https://www.facebook.com/banklesshq/ http://podcast.banklesshq.com/ https://newsletter.banklesshq.com/about https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCAl9Ld79qaZx...

Once you get your investments made for the year all there is to do is to wait.  Study and wait.  And best to be studying God's word. Happy is the man that delighted in the Scripture, and thrice happy that meditateth in it day and night. My flesh man wants to feel cheated for not being taught how to make lots of money.  But my spiritual man knows that I have been taught how to make lots of money and I have made lots of money.  And I am sitting here and enjoying my money right now.  As Dave Ramsey says I am in the top percentage of wealthy people in this world.  The trick now is to not get greedy and lose what I have worked so hard for. Many have lost fortunes due to government malfeasance.  And probably many more will.  And many new fortunes will be made.   Today I get paid to sit and listen to the CEO of Cisco give his keynote address at Cisco Live.  That is coming up at 12 noon Eastern Time. I am blessed.  And I pray to God fo...

 I was listening to this kid on the Pomp Podcast today.  Sounds like he's on his way to making a fortune.  When I was a younger man I used to dream about making a fortune. The rich and poor meet together: the Lord is the maker of them all . Today I don't even have to quote the chapter and verse.  Anybody who is interested can just go to the search engine of their choice and look it up for themself. But now at the age of 57 years born 1963 graduated high school 1981 I find myself facing the cold hard reality that I never made it.  And I may not make it yet.   Many in this world would say that I have made a fortune.  And in many respects I have.  All glory to God in heaven.  By the grace of God I am not in debt, I am note homeless, I am not hungry, I have good clothes to wear and money in the bank.  A car that is paid for.  Low overhead.  A good income.  Good health. By humility and the fear of the Lord are riches, and ...

 First thing in the morning, check your calendar.  Then check your money.  Check your time and check your money.  If everything looks good there and on schedule and your health is half-way decent, then you are good to go. For a working vacation.  Working for who?  Working for God?  God is the reason we work.  Or at least he should be.  What kind of work will I do for him?  I can write, work my job, save, invest, and study investing.  And should that include going to church?  Yes it should. So why am I not going to church here in Virginia?  Hell even if Pastor Terry Shuttlesworth were right here in Reston I would probably not feel like going on some Sunday's.  I'm sure I would have been there a time or two by now during the scamdemic but going to church every Sunday is work.  So am I a sinner for sitting at home and not going to church?  Probably so.  I will need to make up for it in my writing, working ...

Hillorie Le https://www.cryptotoriches.com/   Free Crypto Course 3/28/21   I started the free crypto course.  I'll see if I can finish it.

 Gemini What I like about Gemini is the twin brothers and the compliance angle.   And the security. And being able to hold my money online without any cold wallet in the sock drawer bullshit. Well some would say I told you so when you lose everything, but this is my risk money, and I like the convenience, and I'll bet other people do to. Buying, selling, and storing your cryptocurrency has never been this seamless. https://www.gemini.com/

Coinbase https://www.coinbase.com/ https://pro.coinbase.com/ Centralized Killer trading platform. Got the nice candles on the nice dark screen. Looks very similar to whatever I was using with Ross Cameron in the day trading program. I like that I can drill down to the 1 minute candles.  And the info appears to be real time. Impressive. I will need to compare this with other exchanges trading platforms. If keep money with exchange maybe be riskier than keeping it with Gemini. I own some bitcoin at coinbase.com

Coinbase Gemini   Binance Etoro BlockFi Kraken Gemini and Coinbase are the most popular cryptocurrency exchanges based in the United States. Both platforms have similar crypto offerings, are available in over 50 countries, and both boast a “security-first” approach to trading.  [1] https://tastyworks.com/ Remcommended by Adam from Skyview Trading https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4HMm6mBvGKE https://skyviewtrading.com/

Some people live in their cars.  I think I would rather live in a house.  Sam the Inspirational Nomad lives in his car.  And it's not because he can't afford to live in his house.  I think he's got just as much money as I do and maybe even more.  I think he has no debt same as me.  And enough in the bank to buy a house if he wanted to.  I took my money out of the bank and bought a house.  I like living in a house.  I don't think I would like living in my car. The bible says to be a good steward of your money and to invest it. Matthew 25 14 “Again, the Kingdom of Heaven can be illustrated by the story of a man going on a long trip. He called together his servants and entrusted his money to them while he was gone. 15 He gave five bags of silver[a] to one, two bags of silver to another, and one bag of silver to the last—dividing it in proportion to their abilities. He then left on his trip. 16 “The servant who received the five bags of silver be...

 Risk in life is inevitable.  One must determine what level of risk he is comfortable with.  Risk is reduced by the gaining of knowledge of the investment.  Investing into the Kingdom is guaranteed many fold return. Now Isaac sowed in that land and reaped in the same year a hundredfold. And the Lord blessed him, I've heard preachers say you reap what you sow.  If you sow money into the Kingdom, you will sow money  back to you.  I am working on my giving.  I suppose I am a greedy and perhaps foolish man not to give more.  I will continue to pray about it. If I start out at ethereum.org I feel better about things.  Seems to be an actual group of free people working on a free project to become more free.  It seems to be about much more than just making a buck. Ethereum is the community-run technology powering the cryptocurrency, ether (ETH) and thousands of decentralized applications. It seems to be about this concept of decentralizing...

 I've got my feet in L.A. but my minds on Tennesee.  Seems that writing is therapeutic to me.  Therapetic as Barney Fife would say.  Get up in the morning and have to write down what I'm thinkin' and I got to be thinking about God and the Gospel and Pastor Coates being let out of prison.  Thank you Lord Jesus. And I also have to be thinking about investing into the kingdom.  So I have to think that writing these words is one way that I invest in to the kingdom.  Maybe some poor lost soul will happen along my blog and will happen to hear me mention Pastor Tony Spell and will happen to go to Life Tabernacle youtube and start watching services with me and will become saved. So we'll take a little look at Ethereum today.  I plan on having $500 in Ethereum as soon as I figure out which Ethereum to buy and what exchange to buy it on and what wallet to keep it on and maybe a few more little details.  I like starting out at the links in the left hand...

 I'm studying Daniel chapter eleven. Listening to preachers.  Trying to decipher the true prophets from the fools.   I see there are others looking at the digital currencies with an eye on prophecy.  I think anybody who did not would be a fool. I like this official Ethereum website .  Seems to be a good place to start.  It was given to me by a new bitcoin buddy in the Ethereum discord chat room. The discord website says they are more about the technology than the money.  They say there's lots of jobs available in the technology side of the subject.  I pray that my job holds out and the economy holds out and we do not see anything too terrible between no and my judgement day.  We all have our judgement day and some of us will be here when the feet of Jesus touch down on Mount Zion.  What those still here at that time will have gone through to get to that point remains to be seen. So I say conservative.  Fish out of the right sid...

Build your house on the Rock.  All other ground is sinking sand.  I like this blog the best so far out of all blogs I have started in my life.  I think this is a blog that I could blog on until they bury me.  All other ground is sinking sand. This article says "The first one to become mainstream and the one that ignited this crypto-revolution is Bitcoin.", but that is a bit of a short history to avoid going into depth.  The first one was e-gold . This morning I didn't get much reading done.  And one thing that is great about his business plan is that most of my time will be spent just waiting.  Work, save, invest, and wait.  Don't do anything that will cause you to lose any sleep at night.  Enjoy life. Many would like to have things as good as I have it.  I am working on my giving and living on as little as possible.  Dave Ramsey baby step seven is build wealth and give.  I'm trying to do my best. The main factor in most ever...

“e-gold was never about gold. It was fundamentally focused on payments and settlement.”   Dr. Douglas Jackson made history as one of the early pioneers in the digital currency space when he founded e-gold, a digital currency backed by gold, in 1996. The company was a leader in financial technologies before FinTech was a thing. Now, almost 25 years later he is about to return to this space. In our conversation, Dr. Douglas reminisces on the early era of digital currencies, and the challenges he and his company had to face while onboarding millions of customers and competing with companies such as Paypal or Goldmoney. He shares his somewhat critical views on the Cypherpunks movement as well as Bitcoin, and lays out his future plans. Read more here .

Today I adjusted my daily routine in hopes of generating more productivity.  Starting out at my desk on my PC instead of sitting in my nice soft chair by the window and the lamp and reading my phone.  The reason for doing this is because I can work from my blog here at my desk and this is a much more productive work station. I would say in the beginning learning stages that one shouid soak up as much free information as humanly possible before going to the paid subscribtions.  A penny saved is a penny earned for the kingdom.  God has blessed me such that I am comfortable and not in need of taking any unecessary risk.  Of course risk is unavoidable.  I don't know what the trick is but I will go with my plan of only buying, never selling, and only 10% max of my total portfolio into my two higher risk catagories of cryto and individual stocks. I'll try to start every day with a prayer of thanks and gratitude.  I'll check in daily with my preacher follows....

Got some good reading bookmarks listed on the left hand side of my blog. Watched some good youtube videos on crypto. Set up Wells Fargo account for conduit from BoA to Coinbase Pro. Worked on my bookkeeping system. Back to work tomorrow. Job going good. Telling myself I'm going to get up and go for an 8 o'clock walk. We'll see how it goes.

I like the concept of Bankless.  I am adding a Bankless reading list on my blog here.  If you are viewing this from your phone you have to tap on the three little lines up at the top of this blog to see my reading list.  If you are viewing this blog from a computer then you should see the reading list in the left hand column of this blog. I'm going to try to read a little bit from my Bankless reading list each day.  Maybe watch some videos.  No pressure.  No specific reading or watching goals.  My strategy is long term.  The foolish strategy as the Motley Fool likes to day.

 Matt Furey runs a pretty good blog.  You know writing is an exercise.  There are relatively few who can sit down and muster out verbiage until they have enough to call it a blog post or an article. Writing about investing is something that I like to do.  There is a big psychological vibration that naturally runs through every human being when the subject of money is breached.  After all without this magical money we would be no better off than the man on the street. Most human beings work hard to keep themselves sleeping indoors and having three square meals every day.  It is a natural instinct.  And then, depending on the economy, they either survive or not.  Not surviving is not fun unless you are doing it for Jesus.  That nails it on the head right there. And if you are doing it for Jesus then the subject of money is just how to get more into God's kingdom before he comes back to set things straight for good. You can fool yourself, but yo...
