I thought we all learned the yield products are non sustainable and the majority of them are propped up as ponzis? Sure Coinbase is as legit as they come but how anyone would trust a yield product given what we saw in 2022 is insane.
I get that, hence why I unstaked and I'm dumping ATOM soon, but USDC is pretty liquid is it not?

Explain to me why I would lock up my money in a CD? Give a serious answer or frick yourself.
Get 5+% via cash in a Vanguard MM fund over going for 5% in USDC yield IMO

How safe is USDC on Coinbase? The reason I ask is because I'm considering moving my emergency fund out of traditional savings account which isn't yielded shite and converting to USDC.
Nobody can accurately answer how “safe” it is. But please, for the love of god, do not put your savings in a stable coin.

That's practical advice, thank you. Didn't realize realize Vanguard MM was paying out like that.

The Parable of the Talents:
The third servant, however, had merely hidden his talent, burying it in the ground, and was punished by his master:
Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art a hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him, that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath. And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
— Matthew 25:24–30

There’s tons of Bitcoin clones… doesn’t mean they should be worth anywhere close to Bitcoin. Litecoin has zero reason to exist other than to be like Bitcoin.

Chainlink has nothing to do with Bitcoin other than being a cryptocurrency my dude.

I found a cool puzzle with a lucrative prize attached.
1 million Hex on PulseChain is the reward.

What crypto tokens actually have a tangible product attached to their business model? What are a few examples?

Being tangible would be moving backwards

Is a bank and ALL of it's services considered a tangible product? Are digital auction houses, casinos, games with in game currency, exchanges, and many other things all considered tangible products or does it have to be tangible like a can of beans?
