How to Trade Binance Vanilla Options for the First Time on Bitcoin, Crypto's / Currencies / cryptocurrency
By: HGR
Trading Options on Binance, looking at the options screen for the first time can be a daunting sight, what does it all mean here I show you what all of the facts and figures mean as I put on my very first Calls, Puts long and short options trades on Binance's Vanilla options trading platform, not to be confused with their Neapolitan or chocolate options :). Though do bare in mind that OPTONS are VERY HIGH RISK! So if your considering trading options start very, very small! I just started with 11 bucks that's how small because at the beginning it is very easy to make a mistake. So again start very small and beware that trading options is VERY HIGH RISK so do, do research before jumping in with both feet.

Earn Upto 6% Interest Rate on USD Cash Deposits with Binance Crypto Exchange USDC amd BUSD / Personal_Finance / cryptocurrency
By: Nadeem_Walayat
How can one earn a decent rate of interest on CASH, or near to cash as one can get in a select few stable coins such as BUSD and USDC, note I am ignoring the largest stable coin USDT because I consider that as being ponzi scheme. Nevertheless crypto exchanges offer a way to earn an interest rate of as much as 6% on CASH USD deposits! Of course one should NOT just bung the whole of their excess cash onto a crypto exchange such as Binance for 6% as the risks of loss of funds is too high!
However, I have funded this crypto exchange whilst I await for better crypto prices to invest into, and those funds can earn as much as 6%! So at this point in time I am only depositing a relatively small amount of funds whilst I wait for the crypto bear market to play out over the next 6 months, in the meantime I am earning a return that is a good 5X what any banks are offer for deposits.

USDT is 9-11 for Central Banks the Bitcoin Black Swan - Tether Un-Stable Coin Ponzi Schemes! / Currencies / cryptocurrency
By: Nadeem_Walayat
To get my crypto bear market investing ball rolling I recently opened an account with Binance (10% trading fees discount link). Deposited £3600 sterling that I quickly converted into USDT so as to initiate my initial limit orders on mainly BTC and ETH, aiming to add more funds and limit orders over the next few weeks. Unfortunately on taking a closer look at USDT Tether stable coin which probably holds true for most of the other so called stable coins, I find that USDT is NOT backed 1 for 1 by that which it seeks to represent i.e. from what I have gleaned at best USDT is backed by 75% of dollar 'safe-ish' assets with most of the remaining 25% may not even exist i.e. PRINTED MONEY! Likely to cover losses incurred to date such as the $800 million USDT's parent company lost some years ago etc,. So USDT's true value is somewhere between 15% and 25% LESS than that of the US Dollar given it's actual reserves as I covered in my recent video, and the backing could be far worse as exchanges use USDT to allow traders to trade on margin and thus are vested interests in perpetuating this scam.

Bitcoin Black Swan - Will Crypto Currencies Get Banned? / Currencies / cryptocurrency

I know the crypto bugs will come out with statements such as it is impossible to ban decentralised crypto currencies.
However, bitcoin / crypto's threaten the fiat currency banking system that effectively the worlds central banks have a monopoly over.

Would Transparency Help Crypto? / Currencies / cryptocurrency
By: Adam_Walker
Throughout 2021, the prices of different cryptocurrency options have changed quite a lot with bitcoin going through the biggest swing of hitting a height of $60,000 a couple of times through the year before dropping to below $30,000 recently. Having been picked up for usage by multiple online sources as this is a good resource of the gaming options that use Bitcoin, it still holds a bit of a negative view from some as a history of being attached to less than legitimate sales and offerings – but would more transparency help crypto as a whole?Recently there had been pressure from European regulators as well as some within the us too with plans to make crypto currencies more traceable as part of a crackdown on the more negative view of crypto particularly from money laundering and similar. If banks were to pick up crypto the common thought is that a client would need all of the regular information like name, address, date of birth, and other information too with anonymity being removed completely – it would certainly help with the stigma attached that the majority of crypto usage particularly for bitcoin is for less than legitimate purposes.

By: Nadeem_Walayat
Tether, TETHER is a Ponzi Scheme! Backed probably by less than 3% of actual US Dollars that it's fake paper trail suggest its backed up, which has allowed TETHER to print over $62 billion to date and thus provides the vast majority of volume for the worlds crypto exchanges such as Binance who alone has $17 billion USDY sloshing around in their exchange allowing transactions to take place, vested interests in his Ponzi scheme with bot's busy buying and selling USDT to ensure the price does not deviate from $1 supposed pegged value else the game would be up and Tether would collapse towards zero and along with it so would the crypto markets.

Cryptos: What the "Bizarre" World of Non-Fungible Tokens May Be Signaling / Currencies / cryptocurrency
By: EWI
The world of cryptos includes something known as non-fungible tokens, which go by the acronym NFTs.
If you're unfamiliar with them, they're a bit bizarre but quite simple. Here's what the April Global Market Perspective, a monthly Elliott Wave International publication which covers 50+ worldwide financial markets, noted:
Investors' manic behavior has expanded to include non-fungible tokens, paying large sums of money for essentially a picture of something.
Getting more detailed, "a non-fungible token is a unique identification code that is affixed to a [digital] asset using blockchain to distinguish it from all other [digital] assets."

The Growing Market of New Crypto / Currencies / cryptocurrency
By: Submissions
Crypto has certainly been a huge market of interest over the past few years for a growing audience, particularly over this past year as a retail trader audience have started to explore the growing options with cheaper offerings like Dogecoin providing a sort of Bitcoin 2.0 for those who had missed out their first opportunity to enter the crypto market – the wider adoption of crypto within different markets as the likes of Tesla first announced their own acceptance of different coins (although have since changed their own stance) through to the likes of gaming as players visit this site for casino promotions accepting crypto for example – but with new coins and other crypto options popping up daily, is it worth getting involved and investing into what is still an uncertain market, or is it better to hold off?
