Keep in mind that pump and dump schemes always consist of someone getting fucked over. Either you’re getting fucked over or you are fucking someone else over. I prefer to avoid those situations.
I guess to a lesser extent, it’s the core of capitalism.
I hope you’re not looking at trading crypto as a source of income. It’s not. It’s just as easy to lose money as it is to make it. I also encourage you to carefully consider tax implications.
As for the rest, it all depends on what you plan to do, what currencies you want to use, how much risk you’re comfortable with, and your expendable income.
You can create an account on of many exchanges (Binance, Coinbase, etc) that will allow you to deposit or withdraw physical currency and buy or sell many different crypto coins. I believe many of these will require you to register an ID (if you live in the US) for reporting to the IRS. Also, crypto exchanges have been hacked and people have lost money, so it’s worth considering how much you are comfortable with leaving on the exchange.
If you just need to receive crypto or care to transfer your money from an exchange to a wallet that you control, you can use a number of different wallets. There are hardware wallets that you can buy that are dedicated to storing crypto securely offline. There are also apps for your phone for multi currency wallets. However you do it, you’re going to want to make sure that you store passwords/seed phrases/etc safely and securely. If you lose your keys, you lose your currency. If someone gets access to your keys, you lose your currency.
Nerdwallet (a pretty great financial website if you’re ever looking to compare banks or credit cards) has a pretty detailed write up on the different types of wallets and how to create one. You can find it here: https://www.nerdwallet.com/article/investing/get-a-crypto-wallet
Good luck!
I play at 1440p, but competitive twitchy games at a super high frame rate. My 4090 does well for that.
I’ve had a lot of trouble with both of my last two intel chips. After buying two of their flagship CPUs that were riddled with problems and frequent crashes while gaming, I would wholeheartedly recommend AMD. The switch has been night and day for me.
I couldn’t figure out what was noteworthy about a bodyguard dying their hair…

Hey friend, American here. We all feel like that inside, at least a little. I was a huge introvert, and still am to an extent. However, I’ve been forced into pretending to be an extrovert for ages. I need a bunch of time to myself after things like business travel though, where I have to be the other me for long periods.
The only advice I have is: try it out. It sucks at first, but it gets easier. Sometimes you might actually enjoy it.
If you ever need help or want to practice in a judgement-free space, hit me up. My German isn’t so great but I’ve spent some time there.
I really wish I had something more eloquent to say, but unfortunately I don’t. Fuck.
Fuck
This made my day
Haha, fair
Which Kanye song?
It’s spam
Fuck, I want to see dethklok!!
I’d also like to add that even if something isn’t super feasible to build out as a product, this could be an amazing opportunity for you to create something and learn some new skills. There are electronics platforms like arduino that are easy and approachable for you to design your own hobbyist level circuitry. I used it when building out a company more than a decade ago, and it got us through our proof of concept phase.
Writing apps is also getting more approachable, and you could potentially build something yourself and learn a bunch of new stuff, and you might be a bit more prepared when the next idea strikes. 🙂
I got a message from family there earlier, but haven’t heard anything back in the last 6 hours or so.
Gets me every time too.
Depends on the van. Were you offered candy?

Fair. I wasn’t criticizing you, mainly just posting that for OP. 🙂
